The infant glanced at the enraged fireball. "You want me to join forces with you? What? You think you can get us out of here?"
"As I just said, this place is a one-way street; you can only enter, not leave. Besides, you, as the Evil Emperor, can only possess a fireball now..."
The disdain in Xianying's eyes pierced Ye Si's heart.
The latter immediately let out a "whoosh" and turned to look at Sheng Ning, "Sheng Ning, he despises me!"
While the two were still chatting enthusiastically, Sheng Ning was exchanging glances with her two senior brothers beside her. The three of them were preparing to rescue Lu Qing'an and the others who were hanging from the tree.
Ye Si's howl completely disrupted the plans of the three senior and junior disciples.
Sheng Ning looked up helplessly upon hearing this, "I thought you could at least maintain your persona for another three minutes."
How long has Ye Si been serious? A wicked emperor, the wicked emperor who once led an army to crush the demon race.
How can you be so childish and have such an unconventional personality!
Taking a deep breath, Sheng Ning looked up and met Xian Ying's gaze. "If I take you all out of here, will you listen to me?"
"Impossible, we can't get out." Xianying rejected her answer without even thinking.
It has been hundreds or even thousands of years since he and his men fled to this place. Over the years, they have tried every possible method.
Not a single one was successful.
Gradually, they gave up the idea of leaving.
Only when new blood enters this place will this desolate land come alive again.
Sheng Ning frowned slightly upon hearing this, "How will you know it's impossible if you don't try?"
"Don't be so quick to dismiss me. Let's discuss the terms first. If I take you all out of here, can you guarantee you'll obey me?"
This time, Xianying did not immediately deny her.
His brows were slightly furrowed on his charming face. If others saw him at that moment, they would surely be captivated by his appearance.
"Is it true that the Evil Emperor just said that the pillar of heaven is about to collapse, the demon race will become dominant, and that it will rule over the three races of demon, monster, and evil?"
Sheng Ning nodded, "May I be struck by lightning if I lie to you."
The way she swore so readily made Xianying's lips twitch.
He turned around and glanced at Qin Chuan and the others hanging not far away, and said, "There are quite a few human cultivators, why don't we look for them?"
"Because of the mole."
Sheng Ning spoke without hesitation, "Besides, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Of course, you will definitely settle accounts with Li San for turning cultivators into moths later."
"Don't worry, I'm a very reasonable person. It's true that I want you to come out of seclusion, and it's also true that I will avenge any wrongs."
The twitching at the corner of the baby's mouth intensified. "...You want to ask me to leave again, and then settle accounts with me afterwards? Are you sincerely asking me to leave?"
"Of course I'm sincere. A mistake is a mistake, and I can't decide whether to make amends for it."
"Just tell me if you want to go out or not!"
Sheng Ning didn't want to beat around the bush with him anymore.
Ask him directly if he wants to go out.
He naturally wanted to carry the baby in his mouth.
It's just that he doesn't trust Sheng Ning.
Judging from her bone age, Sheng Ning is still very young. Her talent is indeed very high. It is possible that a genius like her will appear once in thousands of years.
But a genius is still a genius; he is not omnipotent.
How could she possibly be smarter than a group of demon cultivators all by herself?
They've been here for so long, gone to every place they could go, but they still can't find the exit.
Seeing the hesitation on his face, Sheng Ning knew that he must not believe her.
She clicked her tongue lightly and said, "How about this, you come with me for a bit, and I'll prove my strength to you."
"If you still don't believe me after reading this, it's okay. I'll save my fellow disciples and then leave."
As the lord of the demon race, Xianying was only at the third level of the Nascent Soul stage, despite the demon race's weakness.
But keeping one person is still not a problem.
Sheng Ning casually declared that she would save her senior brothers, showing no regard for his demon clan!
The more I looked at him, the more arrogant he seemed. He must have been praised too highly by the outside world and thought he could break through anything.
This time, Xianying did not refuse, but sneered inwardly, preparing to see how she would embarrass herself later.
-
The reason why it is called 'Shangri-La' is because it is a paradise on earth.
Here, towering mountains and lofty peaks, rivers and lakes abound, and every hilltop is lush and verdant, with rare fruits and plants everywhere.
Following his memory of the journey, Sheng Ning followed Fang Chong on their swords and arrived at a high mountain with Xianying.
"You said you've tried countless ways to leave this place, but you've never found the exit."
Sheng Ning put his hands behind his back and asked Xianying a question with his back to her.
Before her stood a majestic mountain, a mountain that had been there since the time of the infant's arrival, standing there for many years.
Hearing her question, Xianying replied, "We've searched for the exit, every tree and every cave here."
But it didn't work.
At first, a group of demon cultivators and demon beasts were very enthusiastic in their search for an exit, searching day and night.
Even after searching the entire area, they still couldn't find the exit.
Over time, they lost hope of leaving and established a new home there.
However, the spiritual energy here is not usable by demon cultivators, so Xianying could only sit and worry helplessly, watching his subordinates with low cultivation levels die before his eyes all these years.
Sheng Ning led him to a high mountain, which was not far from his cave dwelling. Every time he stood in front of his cave dwelling and looked out, he could always see this high mountain.
He raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, then said in a deep voice, "You think the exit is here?"
"Don't dream about it. My men and I have already searched this mountain thoroughly. What's on it...?"
Before he could finish saying "none of them," Xianying was interrupted.
Sheng Ning turned around, shook her head at him, and smiled, "When did I say the exit was right here?"
"Didn't I say I brought you here to prove yourself?"
"You said you searched every blade of grass and every mountain here, but you couldn't find an exit."
"Could it be because you haven't found the right method?"
"Find the right method?" Xianying frowned. "What method could there be here amidst these towering mountains?"
But then Sheng Ning pointed to the sky and said, "You searched every corner of the underground, but you left this place behind."
sky?
Instead of being angry, Xianying laughed, "Sheng Ning, judging from your bone age and your cultivation level, you are indeed a rare genius in this world."
"I am not your fellow disciple, and I have no time to play around with you. If you want to get out, you have to find your own way. I have no time to waste on your nonsense."
The moment Sheng Ning pointed to the sky, Xianying prepared to turn and leave.
A mere Nascent Soul cultivator dares to challenge the heavens; this shows how arrogant and foolish Sheng Ning is.
Just as he was about to turn and leave, Fang Chong, who was standing next to him, clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Fellow Daoist Sheng is absolutely right! How come I didn't think of that?!"
"…You can play all you want, I'm going back!"
