"Oh? The Suzaku clan."
There was a look of surprise in the monster's eyes. He didn't expect to encounter a phoenix in such a remote place.
"Demon, why are you here?"
The demon's body suddenly shrank to two meters. He was burly, with a mouth on his chest, a row of spikes on his back, and a long tail swaying in the air.
He touched his head and said, "Oh, I'm looking for the Thunder Lotus. Is there any here?"
“???”
Everyone was stunned...
Lu Jingzhi's eyes widened as he complained inwardly, "Damn it! I didn't expect we'd even start chatting. Furthermore, this demon was so foolish as to tell Master his purpose!"
【Don't be so outrageous! 】
Yan An thought for a while and then responded, "It did appear, but it has been taken away by someone else. It should not be here now."
"I've been searching for a long time, but I can't find any trace of him. Why don't you look somewhere else?"
The demon nodded slightly, "Okay, if you find it, tell me, my home is on the Demon Island."
"Um."
The demon tore open a space crack and left... The dazzling warm sunlight once again illuminated Chiyu City.
[It actually believed it? It actually believed it!]
[Doesn't this guy have a brain? ]
[You even asked the master to help you find it. It would be weird if he found it and told you!]
Yan An retracted his armor and flashed to Chiyu Peak.
With a thud, most of the people around fell to their knees and said in unison, "Thank you, young lady, for saving our lives."
Their eyes were filled with excitement, gratitude, and admiration...
"Beautiful sister, I want to marry you."
Suddenly, someone said this, and then more and more people began to agree.
"I want to marry you, too."
"I want to, too."
"If I could marry you, I would be willing to eat a pound of food."
"I'll eat two kilograms."
"I'll eat three pounds!"
Yan An's mouth twitched, and he said loudly, "The demons have retreated. You continue, we will not participate."
As soon as she finished speaking, the originally harmonious and relaxed atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
Upon seeing this, the prince quickly spoke, "Akabane Peak, surrender! Your situation is hopeless, your foundation is destroyed, and there's no point in resisting any longer."
Xu Qing looked at the severely injured Peak Master lying on the ground, the Saint Son whose life or death was unknown, and the shattered Chiyu Peak, and smiled bitterly, "We can admit defeat, but will your royal family kill us all?"
"No, I will just let you go. Don't rebel again, or I will kill you without mercy!"
Xu Qing sighed softly, his old eyes moist. After coming out of seclusion, his sect was destroyed, his children and grandchildren were dead, and he thought he could enjoy his old age in Chiyu Peak, but unexpectedly...
With a clang, Xu Qing threw the weapon in his hand to the ground and said, "I, Xu Qing, surrender."
Once a leader emerged, the others dropped their weapons and surrendered, and were subsequently taken away by the Royal Guards...
On the other side, Ye Jiuer looked at Lu Jingzhi's back. He looked very familiar to the man who had taken the Thunder Lotus from Leizhou Mountain. She stepped forward and asked, "Do you know your wife's apprentice?"
"My wife's apprentice?"
"Huh? You don't know him?"
After Lu Jingzhi came to his senses, he said, "I know him. He was sent to the Demon Realm by my wife. Why? Do you like him?"
He had forgotten that when he was in Leizhou Mountain, he wore a human skin mask to disguise his face in order to prevent others from knowing his identity.
Ye Jiuer thought of his back with the Thunder Lotus in his hand, his tall and graceful figure, broad shoulders and narrow waist, and her heart began to stir. But suddenly, she thought of his ordinary appearance and felt nothing.
"Tsk, I don't like it, just asking casually."
Seeing her look of disgust, Lu Jingzhi was about to reply when the Lu family manager came over and said, "Master, the young lady from the Ji family is missing."
"Gone?"
“Yes, even the rest of the Ji family has not been found.”
"Where's the Ji family?"
The Lu family director shook his head and replied, "I don't know. When we were in Chiyu City, we didn't go to the Ji family, but surrounded and killed the deputy peak master."
"Well, we'll go down the mountain to settle accounts with the Ji family later."
"Yes, Master."
Hearing their conversation, Ye Qing'er became interested, "Do you have a grudge against the Ji family?"
Lu Jingzhi glanced at her and said in a calm voice, "What's it to you?"
Although he didn't like the two sisters very much, if he had to rank them, Ye Jiuer was more pleasing to the eye than Ye Qinger.
"You..." Ye Qing'er wanted to get angry on the spot, but she still held back.
"What are you talking about?"
At this time, Yan An came over respectfully surrounded by a group of people, with a somewhat unfriendly look on his face.
I wasn't paying attention when I saw Lu Jingzhi chatting with other women.
"Madam, we are talking about the Ji family."
Yan An crossed his arms over his chest, "Hmph, I forgive you."
When the people around heard Lu Jingzhi call Yan An "wife", they were instantly shocked.
"The goddess is getting married! My dream is shattered!"
"No way, I'm heartbroken before we even started dating?"
"Did this Young Master Lu save the world in his previous life? He's so lucky."
Lu Jingzhi held her hand, looking very proud, "The goddess is mine, forget it."
A group of young talents who came from various places to visit Chiyu Peak, saw Lu Jingzhi's smug face and wanted to beat him up on the spot and then take Yan An back to their home.
But they saw with their own eyes that Lu Jingzhi defeated Chu Gong, while they themselves could not even beat Chu Gong, let alone beat Jingzhi and snatch Yan An.
A young man in the crowd asked, "Can I marry this little white-haired beauty?"
Luo Xue, who was following behind Yan An, cast a coquettish glance at him and asked, "Are you greedy for my body?"
The boy tilted his head in fascination, grinning foolishly, "Greedy... Greedy."
Suddenly, Luo Xue turned into a big white bear and pounced on him.
"ah!"
“Help!”
His legs were shaking and he rolled and crawled backwards.
Luo Xue changed into human form and curled her lips, "Tsk, you coward."
The man lowered his head in shame, wishing he could dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes.
"Your Highness, be careful."
At this time, the prince came over looking somewhat weak, followed by the imperial guards.
"Master Lu, and Yan... Yan An, thank you so much."
"Your Highness, we have some grievances with Chiyu Peak, so there is no need for us to express our gratitude." After saying this, he looked at the people from the Lu family and Yuyan Village, "Let's go to the Ji family."
"Yes, Second in Command."
"Yes, Master."
The prince looked at the figure walking away and murmured to himself, "If it really is you, how wonderful it would be."
Void Channel——
The demon monster's stomach growled, "I'm so hungry. Let's go back to where we were and eat some humans to fill our stomach first."
