Chapter 761: Operation Demon Slayer
The Demon Realm.
Li Yuan took off his upper body clothes, revealing his back, and Ye Fei sat in front of the bed to give him acupuncture.
The slender silver needle was precisely inserted into the acupoint by Ye Fei's strength, and with a lift of her hand, wood-elemental spiritual energy condensed in her palm.
With a soft slap, a gentle palm landed on Li Yuan's back.
Li Yuan exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly opened his eyes.
With the acupuncture treatment from Ye Fei and the specially refined pills from the ancestor Qiu Yu, Li Yuan's body recovered quickly and was no longer as weak and powerless as before.
"How are you feeling?" Ye Fei asked him.
Li Yuan nodded gently: "Yes, I'm fine."
"That's good." Ye Fei breathed a sigh of relief and raised her hand, saying, "Don't move, let me remove the needle first."
His chest and back were covered in needles, and it would take some time to remove them one by one.
The man lowered his purple eyes and watched the girl earnestly remove the needles from his body, a feeling of joy welling up in his heart.
He cupped the girl's face in his hands and kissed her cheek tenderly.
"Hey... don't move!" Ye Fei glared at him.
Li Yuan smiled and said, "Seeing you so focused, I really want to kiss you."
Ye Fei was a little annoyed; this guy just loved to cause trouble.
Thinking of this, she gradually increased the speed at which she removed the needles, and after the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, all the silver needles on his body were removed.
Li Yuan went to change his clothes, just then, Jiang Bai's voice came from outside the door: "Your Excellency."
Ye Fei went to open the door and found Bai standing outside the palace, looking anxious. His eyes were constantly peering into the palace, as if searching for Li Yuan's figure.
Li Yuan stepped out, his gaze sweeping directly at Jiang Bai: "What is it?"
Jiang Bai didn't say anything, but first looked up at Ye Fei.
Ye Fei realized what was happening and gently pushed Li Yuan, saying, "You two go outside to talk. I still need to tidy up."
After saying that, she turned around and went to the table to fiddle with the row of silver needles.
Li Yuan's face darkened. He stepped out of the palace, his cold, sharp gaze turning to Jiang Bai: "What could be that she can't hear?"
"Your Majesty, this matter... is indeed related to the Emperor and Empress." Jiang Bai immediately bowed and paid his respects.
Li Yuan remained expressionless, gesturing with his eyes for him to continue.
Jiang Bai said, "Our spies have sent word that the Holy Church is secretly preparing a plan called 'Operation Demon Slayer'."
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes dangerously: "A demon-slaying operation?"
"Yes, this plan will be carried out by the seven divine envoys of the Holy Order, along with hundreds of Holy Order experts. The cultivation level of these Holy Order experts is conservatively estimated to be at least the eighth-level Spirit Master level."
Li Yuan pursed his lips and remained silent. Seeing this, Bai Jian continued, "In addition, there is news from the Holy Emperor Chi Ye that a mysterious man named Murong Dan has recently joined the Holy Sect. His whereabouts and origins are unknown, and he may have another true identity."
"Your Majesty, I suspect that this Murong Dan is Jing Ji."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan scoffed, "If Murong Dan is truly a thorn in the side, and no one in the Holy Order sees through him, that would be a great disgrace."
What could be more ridiculous than a force that is at odds with the demons, yet is unaware that demons have already infiltrated its ranks?
Jiang Bai whispered, "Your Majesty, this demon-slaying operation is aimed directly at the Empress. I'm worried about what might happen in the future. Perhaps... we could send the Empress to the Demon Realm to take refuge for a while?"
Li Yuan glanced indifferently at Jiang Bai, then stood with his hands behind his back, his voice cold and indifferent: "Even without this demon-slaying operation, the Empress is still one of the targets that the Holy Order is determined to eliminate."
