There are reasons why they were imprisoned.
Monsters like the Fire Fox, who replenish their yin energy by absorbing yang energy, are extremely disliked by both demons and humans. Demons are relatively indifferent, as they don't care if it doesn't concern them, but human cultivators absolutely cannot tolerate it.
Huo Fei hung up the phone, and with a flick of his lips, he began chanting scriptures once more.
This fire fox was of average skill, but extremely cunning. Lately, she would often howl at the moon in the middle of the night... The howls were sometimes long and sometimes short, seemingly without any pattern, but Huo Fei could hear something else in her voice.
She is seeking help.
Hmph, do you really think he's a pushover?
If anyone dares to cause trouble or act recklessly in his prison, then he will forcibly suppress them.
——
Yin Huan hung up Huo Fei's call, her small shoulders shrugged, and her expression immediately fell.
Huo Fei refused to cooperate, and the plan fell through.
Despite this, Yin Huan was still somewhat unwilling to give up. Especially after Huo Fei said that someone had bought that Ganoderma lucidum for ten million, she became even more resentful.
After being so smug for so long, it turns out I was just taken advantage of and ripped off.
No, we can't just let it go like this.
"Little ancestor, calm down, calm down. That's a Taoist priest. You can't go up against him." Ah Hui was at a loss because of Yin Huan's gritted teeth.
Putting aside whether he wants Yin Huan to be captured by the Taoist priest, Yin Huan went out with him today. If anything happens to her, Brother Qing will definitely tear him apart alive.
Silver Ring: "I know he's a Taoist priest."
Ahui: "A Taoist priest is exorcising demons. You know he's a Taoist priest, so why are you still going near him? You should run away quickly."
Silver Ring: "Ah Hui, I've been ripped off like a lamb, how am I going to get revenge?"
Ahui: "Huh?"
Silver Ring: "That Taoist priest surnamed Song bought a thousand-ganoderma lucidum from the Green Python for three million, but Huo Fei just said that the lucidum is worth ten million..."
"..." Ahui blinked, choked on his throat, and after a long while said, "Brother Qing, are you so ignorant?"
Even a fire sale shouldn't involve such a drastic price jump...
Yin Huan glared at Ahui: "Who knew a small Ganoderma lucidum could sell for so much money? Quickly think of a way to make that guy surnamed Song cough up the money."
Ahui: "This... is a bit difficult. I don't think he'll admit it."
Silver Ring frowned: "That's why I asked you to come up with a solution!"
Ahui shook his head violently and said bluntly, "I can't think of anything."
Silver Ring: "......"
"Hey, look over there, it looks like a celebrity has come to the stadium. Let's go check it out."
Ah Hui was worrying about how to persuade Yin Huan when he looked up and saw a crowd of people walking towards the stadium. The most eye-catching were the several tall and burly bodyguards in black. So, he quickly turned his head and tried to divert Yin Huan's attention.
"A real celebrity has come! Who is it? Is it the one who plays Bai Suzhen?" Yin Huan was genuinely interested in Bai Suzhen. This was the first TV series she had ever watched. Not only that, but the lead actress, like her, was also a snake demon.
"It doesn't seem so, it's a man who came." Ahui: "Let's go, let's go wait there. The lead actress for 'The Legend of the White Snake' will be here soon. If we're lucky, we might even get her autograph."
Distracted by Ahui, Yinhuan temporarily abandoned Song Tianshan and followed Ahui to watch the celebrities.
"Tsk tsk, these celebrities look different from how they appear on TV." After looking for a while, Yin Huan was somewhat disappointed.
These so-called celebrities look quite impressive on television, but the moment they step off the screen, their true colors are revealed.
“Any one of us demons is prettier than them,” Silver Ring said proudly, leaning close to Ahui’s ear and whispering.
Ahui rolled his eyes: "..." How can this be compared?
"They're here, they're here! The lead actress of 'The Legend of the White Snake' is here!" Just as Ahui was about to speak, he saw the actress, whom Yinhuan had been eagerly anticipating, being escorted by others as she walked over.
Yin Huan grinned and happily squeezed her way past the actress.
Oh my, look closely... This is the actress who plays a snake demon, and she plays it exceptionally well, greatly boosting the goodwill of the snake race.
Yin Huan ran towards the actress, but there were so many people rushing towards her that she was instantly swallowed up by the crowd after only two steps. Ah Hui reacted quickly and grabbed her arm, narrowly preventing her from being swept away by the flow of people.
After Yin Huan finally managed to squeeze out of the crowd, all that remained of the actress she had been waiting for all day was her back.
Silver Ring: "......"
Ahui: "It's okay, she'll be performing on stage tonight, so we'll still be able to see her."
Silver Ring nodded listlessly, somewhat disappointed.
As dusk fell and the streetlights came on, Ah Hui, seeing that it was almost time, took Yin Huan into the stadium.
The stadium was dimly lit and packed with people. Deafening music blared, echoing through the air, interspersed with the incessant buzzing of the crowd.
Yin Huan and A Hui found a seat and waited quietly for the evening's activities to begin.
This year's New Year's concert in Qingcheng was a magnificent spectacle, with a grand scale and colorful lights that enveloped the stage in a dreamlike atmosphere. Yinhuan initially watched with great interest, even imitating others by raising her little paws and swaying from side to side to the rhythm of the music. But as she swayed, Yinhuan's smiling eyes gradually became dull.
She craned her little head and stared at the stage again and again.
After a long pause, she took a deep breath and realized that everyone had probably wandered onto the wrong set.
The author has something to say: I've seen some readers say that the story has questionable values and will negatively impact minors' reading experience. That's a bit of a blunder, so let me, the foolish author, explain.
The protagonist of the story is a demon. The demon and the demon hunter are opposites, each with different perspectives and thoughts.
Regardless of whether they are human or demon, no matter how disliked they are, they all have a bottom line... and that bottom line is being a mortal. This point has been emphasized from the very beginning.
Yin Huan is rather unconventional and sometimes a bit crazy, but she never harmed an ordinary person. Not just Yin Huan, but all the demons with significant roles in the story—the author deliberately avoids them killing mortals.
The reason is that they were afraid of portraying the demon race as too bloody, since the story is mainly about the demon race.
At the same time, not all demon hunters are bad guys, and not all demons are good guys.
