Chapter 111 The tragic end of the charming and delicate little succubus 3
"Princess, Xiaowei, she..."
"Princess, Princess..."
Liu Yaoyao, who was about to have dinner, suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from outside the door. The noisy sound came from far away and soon reached the door.
She frowned slightly, put down the chopsticks in her hand, looked at the maid who was running out of breath and had a pale face, and scolded her lightly:
"What happened? Why are you so panicked?"
The maid's eyes widened in fear, and she fell to her knees with a thud, saying in panic, "Princess, Caiwei, she's dead!"
"What? Caiwei died? What happened? Tell me clearly."
Liu Yaoyao was shocked when she heard this. Caiwei and Cailiu had been her personal maids since they were young. They had grown up together and had an extraordinary bond.
Cai Liu's face turned pale and tears filled her eyes with fear. Thinking of the scene she had just seen in Cai Wei's room, a feeling of nausea surged from her stomach, and a sour feeling seemed to rise in her throat.
She didn't dare to lose her composure in front of her master, so she swallowed her bitterness and said in a trembling voice, "Princess, Caiwei is dead. I just went to Caiwei's room to call her..."
"The whole person was skinned and the bed was covered in blood..."
Skinning?
Liu Yaoyao's eyes widened, her face paled, and she took a step back. The spoiled princess had no time for such a thing.
The maid below was still saying:
"Yesterday... I was on night watch, so I asked Cai Liu to go back and rest. But when I woke up this morning, she wasn't there. I thought she had gone out, but I saw her..."
When she saw her master, Cai Liu's fear of seeing the corpse faded a little, and sadness gradually surfaced in her heart. She and Cai Wei had been serving the princess since childhood, and they had an extraordinary relationship.
"Skinning?" Cang Tong, who had been listening silently, raised an eyebrow and said, "I think a demon must have sneaked in."
"Is it the demon clan?" Liu Yaoyao looked at him with a cold look in her almond-shaped eyes, as if she had grasped the backbone: "A Tong, are you saying that this was done by the demon clan?"
Cangtong poured himself a cup of tea before slowly saying, "Among the demons, succubi are ugly. They love to peel off the skins of beautiful mortals and use them as their own. Your maidservant has a pretty face. I think the succubus must have taken a fancy to her. Perhaps she's still in this town."
When Liu Yaoyao heard this, her eyes lit up and she immediately said, "Then I will immediately have the city guard close the city gates and capture this succubus."
As long as this succubus stayed in the city, Liu Yaoyao would be worried. Right now, only her maid had been skinned; no one knew if she would be next.
Cang Tong shook his head and said calmly, "The magic power of the charmer is not high, but after it is covered with human skin, it is no different from ordinary people. Even those with high cultivation levels find it difficult to distinguish."
"However," he turned his gaze towards Lu Yu thoughtfully, "I heard that Young Master Lu specially invited Abbot Kongji of Fayuan Temple to come here this time..."
He smiled and said, "Abbot Kongji has profound magical powers. He can predict fate, see through evil, and judge people with his own way. This succubus has committed many murderous crimes. I think it will not escape Abbot Kongji's discerning eyes."
Facing Cang Tong's meaningful gaze, Lu Yu remained calm, lowered his eyes slightly, and said casually, "I have already sent a message to the abbot."
Liu Yaoyao's eyes lit up when she heard this and she expressed her gratitude repeatedly.
Cang Tong took a sip of tea and said with interest, "Speaking of succubi, I heard an interesting story..."
He lowered his voice and said jokingly, "That conceited and arrogant Demon Lord seems to have recently taken in a succubus as his concubine."
"A favorite concubine?" Liu Yaoyao was a little surprised. Recalling the tall and handsome Demon Lord she saw on the city wall, she couldn't help but ask, "Aren't succubi said to be ugly? How could a dignified Demon Lord take a succubus as his favorite concubine?"
"Who knows?" The handsome and charming demon smiled: "Perhaps our Demon Lord has a very peculiar hobby..."
Liu Yaoyao burst into laughter at the other party's words. Only Lin Shaoxuan and Lu Yu were not interested in such gossip and quickly got up and left...

The time has come!
Nan Qiao, who had just woken up, looked at the light outside the window with tearful eyes and murmured to herself.
A month has passed. As all demons know, a human skin can only last for a month. If the Demon Lord comes back and sees her still like this, he will definitely know she is lying...
Thinking of this, the little succubus looked depressed. No one would be happy when facing a life-and-death situation.
Fortunately, the ferocious Demon Lord has not returned yet, so she can live for a few more days.
The little succubus clasped her hands together in front of her chest, silently praying that the Demon Lord would come back later so that she could live a little longer.
boom!
A loud noise was heard, and Nan Qiao, who was praying, was startled and almost fell off the couch.
What sound?
Could it be that the Demon Lord has returned?
The little succubus was startled, got off the couch, walked a few steps to the window, opened a small gap and looked out.
Outside the window was a flat and open plain. The demon servant that usually guarded this place was no longer there. Seeing that the demon servant was gone, Nan Qiao became bolder and opened the window completely.
Listening carefully, Nan Qiao could hear the sounds of swords, spears, and halberds fighting coming from not far away, which made his face turn pale.
Is this, the enemies of the Demon Lord have invaded the Demon Palace?
The little succubus panicked a little, and tremblingly closed the window, then curled up on the couch, thinking about what to do on her own.
Although she was timid, she was not stupid. She knew that she was still the Demon Lord's favorite concubine. If she was caught by the Demon Lord's enemies, she would definitely not end well.
Nan Qiao's smart eyes turned slightly, and he got off the bed again and opened the door of the main hall again.
She thought that since such a big thing happened in the Demon Palace, the demon servants should have escaped. However, as soon as she opened the door, she was immediately met with the dark eyes of several demon servants.
The demon servant closest to her took one look at her and immediately lowered his head. His face flushed crimson as he stammered, "Madam, is there something wrong? Are you hungry?"
Nan Qiao was silent for a moment, shook his head, and asked meaningfully, "Why are you still here?"
After hearing her words, the honest demon servant shook his head like a rattle and said in a resounding voice: "We are not leaving!"
"Madam, don't worry. We will definitely protect you and will never abandon you!"
With a firm tone and a resolute look in her eyes, the little succubus looked at them indescribably for a few times, then closed the door in a bad mood.
She nestled into the couch again, staring into space silently.

"Why are there so few people in the Demon Palace!" Liu Yaoyao hid behind the three people and said in surprise as she watched the demon soldiers being constantly knocked away by Lu Yu and the others.
Lin Shaoxuan disliked the atmosphere of the demon world very much. With a cold face, he raised his hand and knocked away several more demon soldiers: "They should have all been transferred to the boundary of the barrier by the Demon Lord."
Lu Yu practiced sword skills, and with a wave of the icy silver-white sword in his hand, another group of demon soldiers who surrounded him fell down.
Soon, the three of them cleared out all the demon soldiers in the square at the center of the Demon Palace. The demon soldiers who were frightened by their powerful strength and fled everywhere were also easily dealt with by the few people following them.
Some escaped, some died, and the entire Demon Palace was empty at this time, without a single demon servant left.
Lin Shaoxuan glanced at Cangtong and said with some disdain, "Why did you ask us to come to the Demon Palace?"
Cang Tong glanced at the Demon Palace, which seemed so familiar to him, and smiled, but there was no warmth in his smile: "I just came here to test the waters."
After all, he has been the Demon Lord for thousands of years. Even if victory is in sight, Cang Tong will never underestimate him.
Lin Shaoxuan frowned and said in a bad tone: "Then go ahead and explore. After that, we'll go back early."
Although the demons of the demon world are demons, they cultivate spiritual power just like everyone else in the spirit world. Lin Shaoxuan has been a noble man since childhood, and he grew up in the Demon King Palace, which is full of spiritual power. He is not used to the demonic energy of the demon world.
The Demon Palace is located in the place where the demonic energy is the thickest in the Demon Realm. Even though he closed his three senses, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Cang Tong did not comment on his words. His eyes darkened slightly and he released his demonic consciousness.
The entire Demon Palace was completely shrouded in the power of demonic consciousness, and Cang Tong used the demonic consciousness to carefully investigate every palace.
Under the demonic consciousness, everything that was below his cultivation level could be seen by him, but suddenly, Cang Tong, who was investigating, raised his eyebrows, and then looked towards a temple.
In the entire Demon Palace, this is the only place where his spiritual sense cannot penetrate.
The others noticed his expression and couldn't help but look towards the temple. Under the protection of the crowd, Liu Yaoyao became much bolder and asked, "Atong, is there anything unusual over there?"
Cang Tong stared, did not answer, and flew towards the palace.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Liu Yaoyao pursed her lips and asked Lu Yu to follow her!
The demonic energy over there was even thicker than that in the central square. Lin Shaoxuan frowned even deeper, feeling disgusted, but also curious about what the demon had discovered, so he flew over as well.
From the outside, this palace was much larger than the other palaces in the Demon Palace. At this time, most of the surviving demons in the Demon Palace had almost escaped, so when he saw the few demon servants still guarding the palace gate, Lin Shaoxuan raised his eyebrows with interest.
Noticing that several demon servants turned pale with fear and broke out in cold sweat after seeing them, but still stared at them intently, as if they were determined to defend them to the death, the uninterested Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a little curious.
What on earth is hidden in here that has several demon servants guarding it so loyally?
After all, the demon servant is just a demon servant, and his magic power is not high. Even if he fights hard to defend, he will be knocked to the ground in just a moment.
Cang Tong slowly approached the vermilion palace door, and his slightly pale but powerful hand pressed against the door...

Bang, bang, bang...
The sound of people falling to the ground kept coming from outside the door.
The little succubus' eyes were filled with fear at this moment. She shivered as she curled up on the couch, wrapping herself tightly with the quilt.
What should I do, what should I do, what should I do, what should I do.
Is she really going to die?
Tears gradually welled up in the fearful little succubus's watery eyes. Crystal clear tears flowed one by one to the corners of her eyes. The quilt was stuffy, and the tip of her nose and the corners of her eyes were all red.
Crunch.
The door was pushed open.
