To everyone's surprise, the seventh fragment was actually with the Black Emperor.
However, considering their master's unparalleled power, it's not surprising that he was able to find the fragments.
"Your Majesty, that dog of an emperor, in his quest for treasure, disregarded our princess's safety and sent her out to collect treasure fragments. If it weren't for our princess's resourcefulness, she would have perished long ago."
Wu Hengwei roared, "You dog emperor! Our small country has no choice but to submit to him, yet he dares to bully my princess like this!"
"Your Majesty, in your absence all these years, we have not forgotten to develop our power. Now our influence spans the five continents. We are just waiting for Your Majesty to return and give the order, and we will surely take that dog emperor's life."
"Not right now. We need to see what A-Cheng thinks first, after all, she is now the emperor's daughter-in-law."
Even the mighty Emperor Wu was a doting father to his daughter.
He almost killed Prince An because of his impulsiveness, and now he can no longer be so impulsive.
"Your Majesty, for now, we should give the fragments to the princess. I believe she will be happy, and if she is happy, she might forgive you."
"How about this, we help His Highness Prince An seize the throne, and then our princess will become the empress."
"Be more ambitious. What is an empress? If Acheng wants, I can make her the empress of the Five Continents."
"But what if the princess doesn't want to?"
"This is a problem. From now on, I will have to consult A-Cheng before making any decisions." After saying this, Wu Hengwei took the fragment in his hand. "You all make a decision on how I should give her the fragment?"
Even a powerful being like the Black Emperor dared not send the fragments away.
"Why not plant clues step by step to lure the princess into searching?"
"Yes, I believe the princess prefers a challenge."
Wu Hengwei thought for a moment and said, "Let's do it the way you suggested. By the way, the clues should be buried in a more obvious place. Acheng is too tired, and I don't want to exhaust her."
...
Under Feng Qingcheng's meticulous treatment, Demon King Ji Ba finally awoke.
But he lost his memory.
He opened his eyes and asked blankly, "Who are you? Who am I?"
Feng Qingcheng was shocked: "You don't remember anything?"
Ji Ba shook his head: "My mind is completely blank."
Feng Qingcheng examined him again and confirmed that he had amnesia.
Actually, Ji Ba is quite good this way.
Otherwise, given his personality, he definitely wouldn't be able to accept the fact that he's become a useless person.
"Who am I?" he asked again.
"Your name is Ji Ba, and you're a super bad guy. You've been punished by God and are now a useless person. Cherish the days ahead." Feng Qingcheng made up a story on the spot.
"Am I really that bad?" Ji Ba was very skeptical.
"Nonsense, otherwise how could you have become a cripple? It's only because I kindly saved you that you were spared. Anyone else would have killed you long ago. From now on, you'll stay here and not go out. Everyone outside wants you dead."
"But that would be so boring, I don't like it."
"Whether you like it or not, it's because you were utterly wicked and did all sorts of bad things in the past."
"But I don't remember anything now."
Feng Qingcheng ignored him and tossed him a handful of candy.
Ji Ba, with a full head of white hair, clutched the candy and examined it: "What is this?"
Feng Qingcheng shook her head and closed the door.
Wu Hengwei dispatched his most elite guards to protect the palace.
Although Wu Hengwei hated Ji Ba, he didn't dare to take his life.
Is it because of me?
Feng Qingcheng rubbed her aching head.
"Acheng, good news! We've found a seventh piece of clue."
Feng Qingcheng was about to go see Long Moyuan when Nanfeng and the others came over and said something to her.
Feng Qingcheng was overjoyed.
Could it be that this demon race still has fragments?
Where did you find out?
"The palace maid showed me the fragmented drawing." Nanfeng excitedly took out the drawing. "Acheng, this is a drawing that the palace maid made from memory. Take a look."
Feng Qingcheng snatched it over and saw that it really was the seventh fragment of the image.
It's like searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly.
"Is this fragment really in the Demon Palace?"
"According to the clues indicated in the picture, yes."
"But there's no reason why the Demon King would hide one piece on his person and also keep another one in the palace, right?" Feng Qingcheng was very puzzled.
"Who cares what it is, as long as we find the fragments. Ah Cheng, let's hurry up and find the fragments following these clues, otherwise we'll be devastated if someone else takes them."
That's true. The process isn't important; as long as we can collect the fragments, that's enough.
Feng Qingcheng led the group to the location where the fragment was hidden, following the clues.
I wonder what the person who hid the fragments was thinking, playing a riddle game, and the riddle was far too simple.
They even used riddles that even elementary school students could guess.
I don't know if the demons were too weak, or if the ancients were just not smart enough.
In short, Feng Qingcheng found the item without breaking a sweat.
"Ah Cheng, is it true?"
Several people gathered around.
Feng Qingcheng verified it and nodded.
She immediately threw the fragments into the space.
The little pig's several spirit pets are fighting over something again.
"Great! We got this fragment so easily. Let's keep looking. Maybe the Demon Palace has an eighth fragment hidden there. That way we can collect all the fragments."
Feng Qingcheng patted Nanfeng's head: "Do you think you can find fragments all over the street?"
Nanfeng said, somewhat aggrieved, "What if it really is?"
"We're lucky to have found two pieces. We should go back and inquire about the whereabouts of the eighth fragment."
"Are we going back already?" Nanfeng asked, somewhat reluctantly. "The Demon Clan still holds many secrets that we haven't fully explored yet."
The key is that the demon race has a lot of treasures. For example, their Qiankun Bag is much better than that of the human race, as it can hold twice as much.
Feng Qingcheng smiled and said, "How about I marry you a princess from the demon race, and then you can become the king of the demon race?"
Nanfeng shook his head: "No, my body and mind are pure, I dare not touch a demon."
Are you mocking me?
Nanfeng was extremely puzzled: "Have you slept with a demon?"
Feng Qingcheng's face flushed slightly.
They still do not know Long Moyuan's true identity.
"Get out of the way." Feng Qingcheng, flustered, tossed a bottle of pills to Nanfeng.
"This is?"
"Advancement Pills. You all slowed down your cultivation to save Ayuan. These are specially made for you. Take them and distribute them to everyone. One for each person. Don't be greedy."
Nanfeng was overjoyed: "Okay, thank you, Acheng. I knew Acheng wouldn't treat us unfairly."
After saying that, he gave one to Xiao Wangyou and Jiang Yuebai each, and then ran to find the others.
"Ah Cheng, you're so tired and you still have to research pills, why don't you rest properly?" Xiao Wangyou looked at her with concern.
Jiang Yuebai chimed in, "Captain, you must take care of your health."
"I understand. You two go back first. I want to stay here a little longer."
For some reason, she felt that the acquisition of this fragment was too suspicious, as if someone had deliberately placed it here for her to retrieve.
"Ah Cheng, do you need our help?"
"No need, you should go back and take your medicine and cultivate."
The two parted reluctantly.
Feng Qingcheng slowly searched for evidence.
However, the other party hid too well and left no evidence whatsoever.
"Master, there's the aura of a powerful being here," the little pig in the space reminded me.
Feng Qingcheng narrowed her eyes.
For a little pig to be considered a strongman, the other party must be quite formidable.
But she searched everywhere and found nothing.
Given her cultivation level, she probably couldn't defeat even ten of them.
"Come out." Feng Qingcheng pursed her lips.
But no one came out.
"If the Emperor doesn't come out soon, does he want me to invite him?"
In the Demon Palace, apart from Wu Hengwei, no one could hide so well that she couldn't smell them.
Wu Hengwei reluctantly emerged from the shadows.
The fragments are so important to Ah Cheng, he definitely won't be at ease until he sees her get them.
So he hid in the shadows, but unexpectedly, Ah Cheng discovered him.
"Ah Cheng, I..." The Emperor was somewhat uneasy; he was even a little afraid in front of his daughter.
"These fragments, were they placed by the Black Emperor?"
"Ah Cheng, I'm yours..."
“Emperor Wu, the moment you decided to kill Long Moyuan, I swore that I would never forgive you.”
Wu Hengwei was extremely anxious: "Acheng, I didn't know that His Highness Prince An was one of your men."
"Further words are useless. Consider this fragment as a gift from you to the Emperor, and you will be credited for it. Actually, even if you hadn't offered it up, I would have found it anyway."
“Acheng…”
"Your Majesty, if you want to give something to the Emperor, just hand it over openly. There's no need to be so mysterious and waste each other's time."
Wu Hengwei was extremely anxious.
He didn't want to give anything to the dog emperor; he wanted to give it to her.
This daughter is exceptionally intelligent, but her emotional intelligence is lacking.
"Ah Cheng, there's still one piece missing. I'll find it for you."
He knew that Ah Cheng was still angry and would not acknowledge him at this time, so he had no choice but to use the broken pieces as an excuse.
"No need. Since His Majesty has entrusted me with this important task, I will find it myself."
“Acheng…”
"It's getting late, I need to go back to see A Yuan, Emperor Wu, farewell."
Feng Qingcheng finished speaking calmly and turned to leave.
This guy almost killed A Yuan; he can't be forgiven no matter what.
Waaah.
Wu Hengwei wanted to cry.
Why is Acheng so distant from him?
Does this mean they're planning to disown him altogether?
What should I do?
Feng Qingcheng originally wanted to return to the human race, but the demon race is currently in chaos, with several princesses vying for the position of demon king, causing heavy casualties among the demons.
None of them took Long Moyuan, the new Demon King, seriously.
Furthermore, Long Moyuan had no intention of becoming the Demon King; they only wanted to fight to the very end. As the saying goes, the victor is king and the loser is villain, and the victor would force Long Moyuan to hand over the Demon Crown.
"Ah Yuan, the Demon Realm is in chaos. The Demon King has not only become a cripple but also lost his memory. Can you leave this place behind?"
After all, Long Moyuan knew her identity, and she respected whatever choice he made.
Long Moyuan hugged her tightly: "Acheng, it was Mother Consort who told you my identity, wasn't it?"
Feng Qingcheng nodded: "Yes, but no matter who you are, I have decided on you for life. If you want to stay in the Demon Clan and be king, I am willing to be your Demon Queen. If you want to return to the Human Clan, I will be your Princess An. Of course, if you have other ideas, I will support you."
Long Moyuan was deeply moved.
"Ah Cheng, what have I done to deserve your love in this life?"
"Silly girl, you are you, unique and irreplaceable. I am so grateful to God for letting me meet you and for letting me know that love really exists in this world."
Long Moyuan hugged her tightly, his eyes welling up with tears.
“Ah Cheng, but that’s my identity—”
"Shh." Feng Qingcheng kissed his lips, showing him how much she loved him.
This kiss was irreversible.
Feng Qingcheng directly took him to her spatial dimension.
"Long Moyuan, at worst I'll imprison you in my spatial dimension and spoil you for the rest of my life."
Long Moyuan ripped off her clothes.
He gently placed a kiss on her snow-white shoulder: "How should I pamper you?"
Feng Qingcheng gasped, "You little rascal, you're getting worse and worse."
"The lady has taught well."
...
Feng Qingcheng was on the verge of collapse.
You really shouldn't seduce this guy, or you'll just be asking for trouble.
Long Moyuan is as terrifying as ever.
"Acheng, give me a few days to put the demons under control." Long Moyuan kissed her lips.
Feng Qingcheng stretched and said, "Okay."
"You go back to sleep first. I'll take care of it as soon as possible. I don't want to owe anyone a favor."
"Um."
Now that Long Moyuan has inherited the Demon King's demonic cultivation, his cultivation level is unmatched.
She wasn't worried at all that something would happen to him.
So what if he's a half-demon?
As long as she's happy.
Feng Qingcheng fell into a deep sleep.
Long Moyuan used a cleansing spell on her to help her sleep more peacefully.
"Ah Cheng, wait for me, I'll be back soon."
After Long Moyuan finished speaking, he flew away from the space.
...
"Emperor Wu, we beg you to rule the Demon Clan. Otherwise, if the princesses continue to fight and kill each other like this, the Demon Clan will be doomed sooner or later."
All the demon generals who were pursuing Wu Hengwei knelt down to save him.
Wu Hengwei said, "I made it very clear to you back then that we were just getting what we needed. I rebelled against the Demon King and returned to the human race, and you gained your freedom. As for the demon race, I don't want to get involved."
"But now the demon realm is in chaos. The new demon king is neglecting his duties and letting the princesses run amok. If this continues, I'm afraid the demon realm will be destroyed."
Wu Hengwei calculated for a moment and then laughed, "Generals, don't worry. Your new Demon King is worth following. He's here."
Soon, a domineering aura swept over them, and the generals couldn't help but turn around.
A figure dressed in black robes and wearing a demonic crown walked towards the crowd.
"Demon King."
The demons couldn't help but kneel down in worship.
Long Moyuan said calmly, "Rise."
Wu Hengwei laughed and said, "Congratulations, Demon King, on finally taking on the responsibilities on your shoulders."
Long Moyuan didn't know if making this decision was right or wrong, but he knew that this was his mother's hometown, and he couldn't let it be destroyed.
He raised the demon sword of the former demon king: "All generals, listen to my command! Several princesses have each raised troops and rebelled. You shall follow me to capture the traitors. Those who resist shall be killed without mercy!"
"Capture the traitors and unleash the might of our demons!"
"Long live the King! Long live the King! Long live the King!"
"Long live the King! Long live the King! Long live the King!"
Finally, the generals bid farewell to Wu Hengwei.
Wu Hengwei instructed, "Long Moyuan is your new king. You should follow him and be loyal to him. As for me, I am going back to the human race."
The generals had tears in their eyes.
Over the years, the Emperor has treated them well.
Their fighting prowess and their spiritual cultivation all stemmed from his teachings.
Without him, they wouldn't be the outstanding individuals they are today.
Watching Long Moyuan lead his troops further and further away, Wu Hengwei smiled with satisfaction.
Unexpectedly, the army he trained was for his son-in-law.
This isn't a loss.
He couldn't wait to return to the human race.
How is his Qiaoqiao?
How is his son?
