Chapter 108 Blood Pool Slumber
Su Yu snapped back to reality, still in the cave he had prepared himself at the top of Zhongbai.
He sat upright for a while to calm down, and after thinking about it, he felt that something was not right.
Although the demon I just saw was no different from Feng Huaijin, and even his mannerisms were the same, it was still normal that he had a few more scars.
But his expression and demeanor didn't seem right.
He knew what he had raised. Although Twelve was a bit too dependent on him and didn't pay much attention to socializing, and sometimes got a bit irritable because of bloodline issues, the demons of the Abyss Palace did have a place in Twelve's heart.
Even if he were really gone, he didn't quite believe that Twelve would become like that, as if he regarded everything as playthings in the palm of his hand, and didn't care about life and death. His many years of upbringing were not for nothing.
He found it hard to believe that he would disappear without making any preparations or leaving anything behind. Even if it was the plot's consciousness acting up, it wouldn't be difficult for him to leave something behind with the help of the system.
Unless a third party intervenes, or...
Su Yu tapped her knee lightly with her fingertips.
What he saw was actually the Demon Lord Feng Shi from the original storyline?
Su Yu calmed down and then immediately contacted the world consciousness, or rather, the plot consciousness, through the system.
After making the contact, grit your teeth and calmly cultivate.
His brother absolutely cannot grow up to look like that!
On the other side, after Feng Huaijin finally agreed to leave, the black-clad demon Sang Er immediately took out a teleportation talisman and quickly affixed one to himself and the other demon Feng Huaijin.
Finally, his mission is finally complete!
Choking back sobs, covering her mouth, tears welling in her eyes.
The light boat has already passed ten thousand mountains; he no longer needs to bring that stubborn donkey!
With a peaceful smile and anticipation for a happy future, Sang Er closed her eyes and arrived at her destination amidst a familiar dizziness.
A remote, old forest.
Faced with Feng Huaijin's suspicious gaze, which seemed to want to kill him, Sang Er laughed heartily.
"Oh dear, the environment is a bit lacking, but please don't mind. Oh right, did I mention that my Phantom Demon King is also on the wanted list? What a coincidence, hahaha..."
Although it's a wanted notice, it's really just reporting the whereabouts of the Phantom Demon King to the Demon Palace, so the Demon Lord or his subordinate Demon Kings can come to capture or kill him. After all, most demons can't defeat the Phantom Demon King, so taking a reward for the information is enough.
Feng Huaijin closed his eyes briefly, maintaining the last shred of politeness: "Lead the way."
"Alright, come with me."
Sang Er quickly and skillfully shut up, then turned and led Feng Huaijin through the winding forest.
"Your Highness! I've brought the demon back!"
After passing through the last dense forest, the view suddenly opened up. A babbling brook flowed through the forest, and not far away was a flat area where an old demon with white hair sat cross-legged, pouring seasonings onto the grilled fish in front of him with his dark and loose-skinned hands.
Hearing the voice, the gloomy old demon raised his head and replied indifferently, "Oh, it's Little Er back..."
"What did you come back for?"
Sang Er: "Of course, it's to hand in the mission!"
He darted over to the old demon in a few strides: "Your Highness, this fish smells delicious, can I have some?"
The old demon waved his hand dismissively, "Go away, all you do is try to steal my food. Go get it yourself."
"...Oh right, what mission?"
“It’s him,” Sang Er pointed to Feng Huaijin, who was expressionless beside him. “Your Highness, does he look familiar? Could he be that person?”
He deliberately kept his voice down for the last half of the sentence so that Feng Huaijin wouldn't hear it.
The old devil, Sang Chuang, finally spared a glance for the stranger after hearing this.
His Demon Lord wasn't that young, but his sour face was remarkably similar.
Demon Lord, where did the Demon Lord go again?
Sang Chuang fell into deep thought.
A talkative subordinate and a slow-witted demon king.
Feng Huaijin could no longer suppress his suspicion. He felt he had been deceived and wanted to return to Baicheng to seek comfort from his brother.
Sang Er scratched his head and turned to Feng Huaijin, saying, "His Highness has already told me about the procedures, so you should come with me."
"Your Highness isn't always forgetful and coughing. It's just that you're not feeling well. It's an old ailment from your previous injury. It will get better in a while."
Although Sang Er's eyes were dull because he still had to continue to take responsibility, he still tried his best to explain for his Demon King, so that he wouldn't be mistaken for a senile old man by the outer demons.
Then the already low level of trust becomes even lower.
Let's wait until His Highness is sober before making arrangements for this kid. He can handle the rest of the procedures himself.
Feng Huaijin nodded expressionlessly and continued to follow Sang Er deeper into the forest.
Until a deep pool appeared before them, its water a vivid, deep red, like fresh blood.
Sang Er pointed to the pool of water and said to Feng Huaijin, "Here, go in and soak in it to consolidate your newly awakened Abyss Demon bloodline."
"After awakening, are you particularly irritable and eager to kill demons? Hey, I knew that the first time I saw you, when you put your sword to my neck. Let me tell you, that Demon Lord loves to kill Abyss Demons. If you don't want to be found, you'll have to soak in this pool."
"Don't be fooled by his bright red complexion. This pool is filled with rare and precious herbs. After you soak in it, you'll calm down, and your cultivation will be smoother. In just a few days, you'll learn how to conceal your aura. Otherwise, with your Abyss Demon bloodline, any external demon who knows about the Abyss Demon bloodline can see through you at a glance."
Sang Er played his flute with dazzling eloquence, but Feng Huaijin listened to him expressionlessly, his demeanor completely unmoved, without budging an inch.
The only audience member's reaction was too lukewarm, and after saying a few more words, Sang Er felt it was boring and even began to miss his colleagues scattered throughout the Demon Realm.
At least they'll react when they think he talks too much, like throwing a punch.
This stubborn young man, how can he still resist after hearing so many benefits from him?
To gain trust, he casually made another oath.
"It will definitely benefit your strength, with no side effects, just like taking a nap."
"However, if you don't have the bloodline of the Abyss Demon, you might get injured. Don't worry about that, you know what bloodline you have, right?"
Feng Huaijin went into the pool.
As soon as he entered the water, the pool seemed to come alive, surging and undulating. He felt a constant downward pull from the bottom, and the water around him became invisible tentacles, trying to pull him to the deepest part.
Moreover, I'm very sleepy, and getting sleepier and sleepier.
He didn't use any demonic energy, yet he was still able to maintain his breathing in the pool.
An unstoppable weariness swept over my entire body from the depths of my soul, and my consciousness sank into darkness without me even realizing it.
Once Feng Huaijin in the pool had completely closed his eyes and lay at the bottom of the deep pool, the once lively waters finally returned to calm.
Sang Er, who had been hiding to the side, peeked out and muttered unconsciously, "My goodness, it really is that kid."
Those who don't wake up for at least three to five years probably won't wake up.
But he swore he wasn't wrong; it really does feel like taking a nap when you close your eyes and open them again. It was supposed to be over in a few days, but now, well, we'll just have to wait.
Ah, no, we need to call a demon to guard it, otherwise what if the Demon Lord awakens and gets angry?
He jumped up with a start and ran towards the direction where the Phantom Demon King was.
His Highness, hurry up and restore the order, don't forget! This time you've really found the right demon!
