Ji Jiuying knew that this was the Qilin.
"Yes, Master." Hongyu nodded, then transformed into a streak of red light and disappeared into the world.
At this moment, the Heavenly Domain Continent was also in chaos. The barrier in the direction of the Demon Realm was constantly trembling, and all the major forces gathered outside the barrier.
"What on earth is going on? Why did the barrier suddenly loosen?"
"The demon race has been dormant for nearly a thousand years; it seems they are about to descend into chaos..."
Feng Cang stepped forward: "Do you all still remember the demon that was sealed eight hundred years ago? The sudden change in the demon realm barrier must have been caused by that demon underneath. If we want to stop this demon from coming out and causing trouble, I'm afraid that strengthening the seal alone is not enough. We must nip the source in the bud in the bud in order to quell the demon's rebellion."
Fu Yan also stepped out from the crowd, her face solemn: "The last time the barrier loosened, I went to the lower plane to check, and it was indeed caused by that sealed demon."
"So, the monsters sealed in the lower plane have already emerged?"
"It should be..."
At this moment, Feng Cang looked at the jade pendant at his waist, and his face turned pale.
"Something terrible has happened! Luo'er and Yan'er have sent word that the demons from the lower plane have emerged. We must go and help them, otherwise, once the demons invade the lower plane, this demonic barrier probably won't last long."
As soon as he finished speaking, panic gripped the crowd. Feng Cang then added, "According to Luo'er's information, the Netherworld God and the Rain God are already in the lower plane."
As the words fell, a masked girl in white narrowed her eyes in the crowd. No wonder she hadn't seen the Venerable One recently; it turned out she had gone to a lower plane. The Venerable One wasn't one to meddle in other people's business, so the Venerable One's trip to the lower plane must be because of her…
A calculating glint flashed in Xin Yao's eyes as she stepped out from the crowd.
Even with her face covered, people recognized her upon seeing her.
"It is Fairy Xin Yao."
"It's Fairy Xin Yao who has arrived."
"So that was the legendary Fairy Xin Yao. Although her face was covered, you could tell she was a great beauty just by looking at her figure."
"I heard that Fairy Xin Yao is the only woman who lives in the Nine Heavens Palace."
"······"
As Xin Yao listened to everyone's words, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly. In other people's eyes, she, Xin Yao, was still the only woman in the Nine Heavens Divine Palace.
"Not long ago, this fairy and the Venerable One went to a lower plane and reinforced the seal on that demon. This time, the demon broke through the seal, presumably because someone interfered..."
At this point, Xin Yao paused deliberately, which made some people anxious, and they did not doubt what Xin Yao was saying at all.
"Could it be that Fairy Xin Yao knows something?"
"Fairy Xin Yao, stop keeping me in suspense."
Xin Yao's lips curled up slightly, a sinister glint flashing in her eyes: "I suppose you all don't know this, but there is a demonic seed lurking among the human race in the lower plane. I heard about this from the Venerable One."
Xin Yao's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the crowd.
"What?"
"Demon Seed?"
"It's actually a demon seed. What kind of person is that demon seed disguised as?"
"Now that we've discovered the demonic seed, we must kill it. Otherwise, once it's fully corrupted, we might not be a match for it," Bai Ling said solemnly.
Everyone nodded in agreement. This was said by Mingyou of the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, so it was probably true. A sense of panic rose in everyone's hearts. If what Xin Yao said was true, and the demons returned to the human world, the world would probably be in chaos.
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Xin Yao turned her gaze to Feng Cang, her meaning clear: "The demon seed is named Qingling. In the lower realm, she was a maidservant to a woman named Ji Jiuying. I presume Elder Feng is familiar with this person..."
The Feng family members narrowed their eyes and looked at Xin Yao suspiciously. What did this Fairy Xin Yao mean?
Feng Yu, standing in the crowd, was puzzled once more. Ji Jiuying? His aunt's daughter...
"What do you want to say, Fairy Xin Yao?" Feng Cang asked, his eyes looking at Xin Yao with some wariness. His Feng family and this Fairy Xin Yao, who resided in the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, had never had any interaction, but he could sense Xin Yao's hostility towards him, or rather, her hostility towards his Feng family.
Suddenly, he thought of the girl's relationship with the person in the Nine Heavens Divine Palace. Could it be because of this? The more Feng Cang thought about it, the more likely it seemed. The girl's appearance must have threatened Xin Yao's interests.
"Didn't Elder Feng just say that now that the demons from the lower plane have emerged, of course we should go and help them..."
Everyone nodded in agreement. If they let things go unchecked, the continent would be the next to suffer. Only by killing the demons and demon seeds from the lower plane could the continent remain safe.
Bai Lisha stood in the crowd, looking at Xin Yao with hostility. What evil scheme was that woman plotting now? No, she had to inform Xiao Jiu. With that thought, she quietly left before the others had left.
Bai Ling sensed something, looked to the side, and pretended not to see her.
Above the dark clouds.
A fierce glint flashed in Zi Xuan's eyes. Damn it, she always caused him trouble. Both continents needed his protection. At this moment, he even regretted letting Wen Chuyu go to be punished at this time.
The Vast Ocean Continent.
At this moment, Si Yu was no longer the peerless beauty she once was. Her black robes were stained red with blood. Only with the help of the Fire Qilin was she able to catch her breath. She never expected that this inconspicuous little girl would be so powerful after being demonized, that even she was no match for him.
If people found out that Si Yu couldn't even beat a little girl, wouldn't he lose all face? Just what I feared most came to pass.
"Si Yu, Si Yu, I'm here!"
In the void, a voice that was all too familiar came. Si Yu's lips twitched slightly, and she quickly used a cleansing spell to remove the bloodstains from her robes.
Bai Lisha appeared in front of Si Yu. Even though she had used a cleansing spell, Bai Lisha could tell at a glance that something was wrong with him.
"Si Yu, are you injured?"
"No, no, how could I possibly be injured?"
"Then why do I feel like you've become weaker?"
Si Yu: ......
What are you doing here?
"Of course I'm here to help you." He then fixed his gaze on the lithe figure in mid-air. "So the Demon Seed really is her..."
Si Yu frowned. "Xiao Bai, what do you mean, it really is her?"
Bai Lisha recounted everything that had happened in the upper plane. Si Yu frowned. Xin Yao was really persistent. However, with the little beauty's intelligence, she must know what Xin Yao wanted to do.
"Little Beauty and the others are at Star Academy. You should tell them about this first, so they can be mentally prepared."
Bai Lisha nodded, her gaze falling on Si Yu again: "You're injured, so what? Don't be so stubborn. I won't laugh at you. Don't be a brat. I'll help you in a bit."
With that, she turned and left. Si Yu's lips curled up slightly. This little girl still had some conscience.
Having recovered considerably, Si Yu stood up again and attacked Qing Ling, surrounding her from both sides with the Fire Qilin.
