Chapter 58 Touch the Tail
He Qing and his companions hijacked a demon cultivator and successfully entered the demon world. Here the sky was dark, the ground was dark too. He Qing stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the Demon Palace in the distance. The Demon Palace was built on cliffs surrounded by mountains and looked magnificent.
"That's the Demon Palace." The nine-tailed fox pondered, "Let's sneak in."
He Qing turned around and asked the demon cultivator: "Can you let us in?"
The demon cultivator was beaten up and didn't dare to resist. When he heard what they said, his eyes lit up: "Sure! I have someone I know working there, you can just mix in with the ingredients and go in."
The nine-tailed fox thought that this person was shifty and wanted to trick them: "Then get ready quickly."
"I will arrange it for you now!" The demon cultivator narrowed his eyes. He couldn't see the cultivation level of these people, but the Demon Lord would definitely take care of them!

He Qing turned into a bowl of lotus seed soup and was brought in. It was for the Demon Lord. He Qing rolled quietly at the bottom of the bowl, wondering what the Demon Lord was like. Was he a big devil?
The little demon cultivator holding the lotus seed soup looked down at the lotus seed and blinked: "This lotus seed seems to be moving."
"Are you new here? What a fuss." The person next to him who was also carrying food said, "The Demon Lord can eat monsters raw if he wants, let alone a mere lotus seed."
"That's right." The little demon cultivator thought about it and nodded.
He Qing followed the little demon cultivator's footsteps into the depths of the palace, and then came to a room. The bookshelves in the room were filled with books. He Qing took a quick look and saw that they were all books on Taoism and magic. He wondered where the Demon Lord had collected them from.
"My Lord, this is today's lotus seed soup."
"Put it down." A calm voice came from behind the screen.
He Qing suddenly became a little nervous and looked over there closely. After a moment, a man in a black robe with golden light all over his body and wearing a mask walked out.
“?!” He Qing was surprised. Why did the Demon Lord have such merits?
"Go out." The Demon Lord waved to the man.
"Yes." The little demon cultivator retreated cautiously.
He Qing stayed at the bottom of the bowl and didn't dare to move. No one knew what the Demon Lord's name was, and he was also very curious. The Demon Lord walked over and looked down at the bowl.
He Qing looked up and stared at him. Then the Demon Lord took off his mask, revealing a stern face. He Qing was stunned, feeling that it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
Duan Chenhui looked at the lotus seed soup on the table, put the mask on the table, picked up the bowl and took another look: "What do you want to do by sneaking in?"
He Qing didn't move.
Duan Chenhui smiled and picked him up with a spoon: "If you don't speak again, I will eat you."
He Qing weighed the pros and cons and said, "I fell in here accidentally."
"Did you accidentally fall into the Demon Palace? Or do you want to assassinate the Demon Lord?" Duan Chenhui retorted. It seemed that this lotus seed had just been awakened not long ago.
"I accidentally fell into the Demon Palace." He Qing chose a more peaceful answer, but he didn't know that this answer was very unusual.
Duan Chenhui smiled, put him down, and drank the rest of the lotus seed soup until only He Qing was left at the bottom of the bowl: "I'll give you another chance."
He Qing rolled left and right, and found that he could not hide his body. At this moment, there was a sound of fighting outside, and a guard ran over and knelt in front of the door: "Demon Lord! We found the nine-tailed fox from the demon world!"
"Wait for me to go meet him." Duan Chenhui put down the bowl, put on the mask and went out. Before leaving, he was worried, so he set up a barrier in the room.
He Qing climbed up to the edge of the bowl anxiously, hoping that a fight would not break out. He quickly broke through the barrier and flew out, then turned into a human form and ran over.
As soon as Duan Chenhui went out, he found that his barrier had been broken. He looked at the nine-tailed fox in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly: "We have no grudges against the Ten Thousand Demons Valley. What do you mean by this, Excellency?"
The nine-tailed fox stroked its tail and smiled, "We were passing by here, but we were discovered... Well, what should we do now?"
Duan Chenhui drew out his sword, and immediately his demonic energy burst out: "But this is not a place you can just come and go as you please."
The nine-tailed fox took a step back, and at this moment He Qing rushed over: "Please spare his life, Demon Lord."
“……”Nine-tailed Fox, do I look weak?
Duan Chenhui looked back and saw a young man in black walking towards him. He had white hair, green eyes, and a unique appearance that stood out even in the world of cultivation filled with handsome men and beautiful women.
The nine-tailed fox ran over immediately when he saw He Qing: "Boss, you are finally here."
"..." Duan Chenhui looked at He Qing's face, and his expression changed imperceptibly: "Are you the king of all monsters?"
"My name is He Qing, nice to meet you." He Qing nodded to him.
Duan Chenhui was a little bit unbelievable. At this moment, he smelled the fragrance of lotus on He Qing's body... Duan Chenhui looked at him again. Could he be the lotus seed?
The demon cultivators around were shocked: "You are the ten thousand year old demon?!" But why do you look so young! Demons are really good at pretending!
He Qing wanted to say that he was not that old, but the nine-tailed fox spoke first: "We in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley have always been peaceful. Today, we just wanted to come to the Demon Palace to pay a visit, but unfortunately we got lost."
"Do you think we are fools?" The demon cultivator next to him had a distorted face.
Duan Chenhui raised his hand to stop them, and said with a smile: "In this case, it is our fault for not welcoming you in person. Come on, prepare the banquet." The king of all monsters turned out to be a lotus seed... It's really interesting.
"My Lord?!"
Duan Chenhui turned around and glanced at his confidant, who was stunned and lowered his head: "Yes."
Soon the news that the Ten Thousand Demons Valley might join forces with the Demon Realm spread throughout the cultivation world. Countless people were discussing the matter in teahouses, and many were shocked as to why the Ten Thousand Demons Valley suddenly took action.
As for He Qing, they were being warmly entertained by Duan Chenhui, as if they were really just lost.
Song Shu used a telepathic voice to tell He Qing: [This demon lord is treacherous and cunning! People outside are saying that we are going to join forces.]
He Qing: [We are not really going to join forces. ]
Xiao Bai: [I think this demon king must be an ugly monster since he is always wearing a mask! ]
He Qing: [I have seen her, she is not ugly at all.]
The nine-tailed fox didn't expect that He Qing had seen the true face of the Demon Lord. He lowered his head to take a sip of wine, then raised his head to enjoy the singing and dancing: "I wonder if the Demon Lord has any plans recently?"
"No." Duan Chenhui said firmly.
"..." The nine-tailed fox choked, and the squirrel added, "I heard that the Taoist sect is ready to make a move recently."
Duan Chenhui took a sip from the wine glass and put it down. He looked at He Qing and asked, "Where is the Unknown Ten Thousand Demons Valley standing?"
"The demon world won't take action." He Qing looked at the golden light on his body. He was more curious about how the Demon Lord could have golden light of merit.
Duan Chenhui did not answer his question, but turned to talk about other things: "Since you have come from afar, I will take you to visit the Demon Realm after the banquet."
He Qing nodded: "Although it's dark all around, there should be some places to look at."
Duan Chenhui laughed again. The King of All Monsters was actually just here to see the scenery?
After He Qing finished speaking, the faces of the demon generals around him were distorted. If this man was not the King of All Demons, they would definitely attack him together.
After the banquet, He Qing and his friends stayed overnight. He Qing was taken to a yard by the little demon cultivator. At this time, a red moon rose in the sky of the demon world.
He Qing looked outside, walked out of the yard, and walked along the mountain path. Suddenly, he heard the sound of water in front of him. He Qing hesitated for a moment and walked over.
There was a hot spring in front, with a long tail swimming in the water, black scales sparkling, and Duan Chenhui sitting by the water.
"Have you seen enough?" Duan Chenhui turned around, his eyes turned red, staring at him closely.
"So you are a dragon." He Qing had just finished speaking when the dragon's tail suddenly wrapped around him and dragged him into the water.
He Qing asked calmly: "What do you want to do?"
"I feel very uncomfortable now, what do you think?" Duan Chenhui's eyes turned into vertical pupils again, and the smell of pheromones was all around.
He Qing was silent for a moment and discussed with him: "I haven't bloomed yet, I will recite the Heart Sutra for you."
Duan Chenhui almost wanted to laugh when he heard this answer. He tied him up with his tail and held him up in front of him: "Read it."
He Qing struggled but failed to break free: "You seem to be practicing both Taoism and magic."
"Yeah." Duan Chenhui nodded.
"What's the reason?" He Qing continued to ask.
Duan Chenhui looked at him and said, "You just need to recite the Heart Sutra to me."
"..."Okay, the Demon Lord refused to communicate, so He Qing had no choice but to recite the Heart Sutra to him. The Demon Lord let him go after reciting for a whole night. Maybe the Demon Lord thought his recitation sounded good, so he asked him to recite again the next night. This continued for a month.
He Qingnian's saliva dried up from reading so much, and he couldn't help but touch Duan Chenhui's tail.
Duan Chenhui shook him: "Don't touch me."
"..." The scales were smooth and nice to touch. He Qing glanced at him quietly and suggested a permanent solution: "You can find a Taoist partner."
"Can you help me find it?" Duan Chenhui looked at his pretty face. "It would be fine if you could help me find it."
"?!" He Qing was stunned. "I don't know your hobbies. It's better for you to find a Taoist partner yourself."
Duan Chenhui released his tail and put him on the ground: "Go back, you have been in the demon world for too long, rumors are spreading outside, it's not good for us."
He Qing glanced at him. The Nine-tailed Fox had recently told him about this, and was very anxious: "Then we will leave tomorrow."
"Yeah." Duan Chenhui turned into a dragon and dived into the water.
He Qing touched his wet clothes, performed a cleaning gesture, and turned back.
After a while, Duan Chenhui emerged from the water again and looked at He Qing's back.
