Faced with such a fickle old man, Qin Xiyao was speechless. She should have known he was such a person.
When he fell, she shouldn't have cared about him and just pretended not to see it!
"My master kindly sent you to the Demon King's Cave, but you are disrespecting him. Why is that?"
Zhu Yunrou, who was standing aside, couldn't bear to watch it anymore. Qin Xiyao kept asking her to control her emotions so as not to say anything harmful.
But when she saw her master being bullied by the old man, she couldn't swallow this anger and had to speak up for Qin Xiyao.
Qin Xiyao was too kind to the old man, and ended up being bullied by him!
"What nonsense are you talking about? My father is disrespectful to his elders?"
"I even said your master looked down on my father!"
After hearing Zhu Yunrou's evaluation of the old man, the young man couldn't stand it!
He clenched his fists and wanted to go up and beat up Zhu Yunrou, but the old man standing next to him pulled the corner of his clothes.
"Old man! I'm sorry! I really have something urgent to do!"
Qin Xiyao was anxious to leave the Demon King's Cave, so she didn't bother to talk about useless things with the father and son.
"Do you think you can still get away?"
The old man, who had difficulty walking, suddenly transformed into a handsome young man with red curly hair and appeared in front of Qin Xiyao.
Those bright eyes, which showed a hint of shrewdness and calculation, were unusually bright at this moment.
"Are you Gonggong?"
The Steel-billed Shrew once mentioned to Qin Xiyao: The Great Demon King Gonggong is good at using witchcraft, likes treasures, has a human face, a snake body, and red hair.
The young man who blocked his way had a head of natural red curly hair that was particularly eye-catching. However, his handsome appearance was far from the Gonggong with a "human face and snake body" described by the steel-billed shrew.
Qin Xiyao only asked tentatively.
"Congratulations, you got the answer right!"
Gonggong looked Qin Xiyao up and down with a playful expression. His true form was indeed: a human face and a snake body!
He was worried that his true self would appear in front of Qin Xiyao, scare her and leave a bad impression and shadow on her.
"Why are you plotting against me? I have no grudge against you!"
Gonggong transformed himself into an old man, took advantage of her kindness and tricked her into the devil's cave. How hateful!
If Qin Xiyao didn't question him, to put it nicely, it means she has a good temper. To put it bluntly, it means she is weak and can be bullied!
"Haha! You have no grudge against me?"
"Wouldn't you like to ask your pet what good things it has done in my Demon King's Cave?"
"Also! You destroyed the spiritual plants in my Demon King's Cave. How can you not give me an explanation?"
Gonggong snorted coldly.
Qin Xiyao questioned him?
It’s already very good that he didn’t settle the score with Qin Xiyao!
"You've made a fortune in Xuankong Continent through garlic spicy mushrooms. Don't you think your hands are dirty?"
Gonggong planted garlic spicy mushrooms in every corner of Xuankong Continent, causing cultivators to eat them by mistake, or the juice to spray into their eyes, causing them to have hallucinations and run to the Demon King's Cave to ask for an antidote. Gonggong took the opportunity to ask for a huge amount of money!
"If they're willing to give, why shouldn't I accept it?"
"Besides, I didn't force them to eat the spicy garlic mushrooms!"
"They ate it by mistake. What does it have to do with me? I gave them the antidote and charged a fee. What's wrong with that?"
Gonggong retorted with confidence that he felt he did not harm the lives of cultivators like other monsters did, he only extorted some treasures!
He hasn't done anything harmful to the world, so he's not afraid of being struck by lightning!
"Gong Gong! I can understand you collecting the first payment for the antidote, you didn't mean it. I can also understand you collecting the second payment, you haven't dealt with it yet. But when you collect the third payment, I will think you did it on purpose!"
"Making money from spicy garlic mushrooms!"
Qin Xiyao didn't believe Gonggong's perverse theories! Since she had been tricked by Gonggong into coming to the Demon King's Lair and couldn't return to Imperial Capital Academy for the time being, she decided to deal with the garlic and spicy mushroom issue first!
"Xiyao! After all that talk! What do you want me to do?"
Qin Xiyao chattered on and on, and Gonggong felt so overwhelmed!
"My requests are few! Aside from the Demon King's Cave, all the garlic spicy mushrooms grown in other parts of Xuankong Continent will be collected!"
Qin Xiyao didn't believe that Gonggong would be so good-tempered as to listen to her and collect the garlic spicy mushrooms planted in various places in Xuankong Continent. After all, this was his tool to make money from the outside world.
If he really did that, wouldn't he be shooting himself in the foot and ruining his job?
"You have a nice idea! Why should I listen to you? Are you my wife?"
Gonggong's implication was: If you become my wife, I might consider it!
"Gong Gong dares to covet my master, are you tired of living?"
After Zhu Yunrou finished speaking, she attacked Gonggong directly. Seeing this, Gonggong hurriedly dodged!
The cultivator who just claimed to be the old man's son was actually the Yamata no Orochi, a subordinate of Gonggong.
Yamata no Orochi's cultivation is higher than Zhu Yunrou's. His cultivation is about to break through the great success realm. He has the snow spiritual root among the four spiritual roots.
According to legend, after Gonggong angered Mount Buzhou, a flood mountain fell from the sky, which led to the story of Nuwa repairing the sky.
After Gonggong touched Mount Buzhou, he was dying. His subordinate, the nine-headed snake Xiangliu, secretly rescued him and hid him in the Demon King's Cave in the hope of making a comeback.
In order to prevent the news that Gonggong was not dead from leaking out and being hunted down by Dayu, the nine-headed snake Xiangliu hid Gonggong in the Demon King's Cave. After that, Xiangliu began to eat the soil from the river embankments everywhere, making Dayu's work of flood control go to waste.
In a rage, Dayu inserted the Yuhuang Sword into Xiangliu's tail and sealed him forever under the demon-suppressing platform by the pool.
Later, due to changes in the destiny of heaven and earth, cracks appeared in the seal set by Dayu. Xiangliu saw that his chance had come, and he escaped from the seal at the cost of his head!
Only eight of the nine heads were left. When he came to the Demon King's Cave again to seek refuge with Gonggong, Gonggong changed his name to Yamata no Orochi and valued him even more than before!
"You dare to touch my master! Do you want to die?"
When the Yamata no Orochi saw that Zhu Yunrou was doing harm to Gonggong, he rushed forward with the Yuhuang Sword in his hand and started fighting with Zhu Yunrou!
Originally, the Yuhuang Sword was used to suppress the nine-headed snake Xiangliu, but who would have thought that after he escaped from the seal, he could actually take the Yuhuang Sword with him!
The Yuhuang Sword is an ancient divine sword, forged by the ancient gods with all their efforts. The sword body is made of Shoushan bronze, which is the body of Pangu after his ascension.
There is an inscription engraved by Dayu himself on the sword. This sword can kill gods if it meets them, and kill Buddhas if it meets them. When Qin Xiyao saw the golden sword of Emperor Yu in the hands of Yamata no Orochi, her face turned ashen in an instant. Zhu Yunrou's cultivation had just broken through the Nascent Soul stage not long ago. If she was cut by the sword of Yamata no Orochi, wouldn't she be reduced to ashes?
All the good things are in the hands of the turtle. What should she do?
