Chapter 16: Arriving at the Demon City
The two of them stood side by side on the top of the mountain, looking at the brightly lit demon city, unable to speak for a long time.
Jian Lin couldn't bear the cold mountain wind, so she silently approached the Demon Lord, trying to get into his cloak to keep warm.
Her movement woke up the Demon Lord. He turned his head and looked at her with a sharp look, despising her for being weak and unable to bear even the slightest bit of wind.
Jian Lin sneered, she was just cold!
It is said that since she started practicing Mingyue Divine Art, she has earned points very fast, but her practice has made slow progress, and she is still in the middle stage of foundation building.
Originally, according to what the Demon Lord said, she would definitely achieve a breakthrough as long as she practiced the Mingyue Divine Art seriously. After all, going from the sixth level in the middle stage of foundation building to the seventh level in the late stage of foundation building was really not that difficult.
But Jian Lin just couldn't do it, and the Demon Lord was also surprised. After thinking about it, he attributed the reason to her not paying attention to her practice.
However, Jian Lin knew that she had not failed to concentrate on her cultivation, and the Demon Lord was not a person who talked nonsense, so the problem could only be her own body.
One is related to the gradual disappearance of her body's aura, and the other is related to the lack of progress in her mission.
These two reasons interacted with each other, affecting each other and intertwining together like a mess. Jian Lin didn't know how to start solving it.
It is said that she has been with the Demon Lord for so long, and the two of them are quite familiar with each other, and the Demon Lord treats her well. Except for the fact that he dislikes her not liking to practice, they get along very well with each other on other issues.
But the heartbeat value is motionless.
Jian Lin analyzed the reasons for the review. At this stage, the Demon Lord was focused on tracing Zansandao. As a member of the Guanlan Sect, she could only be regarded as a clue and evidence in the Demon Lord's mind.
It's not that there are no opportunities for ambiguous contact. That time in Spider Spirit's human chrysalis, the two of them came into close contact. Jian Lin was embarrassed by the flirtation, but the Demon Lord remained motionless and calm.
No matter for what purpose the Demon Lord brought her by his side, or even taught her the Bright Moon Skill, Jian Lin was sure and affirmed that it had nothing to do with the relationship between a man and a woman.
While his thoughts were swirling, Jian Lin suddenly heard the Demon Lord speaking. The mountain wind was strong and his voice was scattered and scattered.
"Jian Lin, have you heard about the Demon City?" Demon Lord asked.
Jian Lin leaned over and shook his head, "Never. I grew up in the Guanlan Sect. How could I have the chance to hear about the Demon City?"
"Then let me tell you something. Listen carefully and don't take it seriously. The difference between the inside and outside of the Demon City is greater than the difference between the demon world and the human world." Demon Lord described calmly, with far-reaching and profound eyes. "The Demon City is a place for refining Gu.
The container contains dangers and terrors you cannot imagine, and is completely different from the situations you have faced before."
"If you don't take it seriously and still want to hang out and gain experience, or intervene in irrelevant matters," Demon Lord said here, paused, and said very seriously, "I really won't care about you, you can figure it out on your own
solve."
It turned out that he was giving her a vaccination. Jian Lin nodded solemnly and promised him, "Don't worry, young master, if I really meddle in my own business again, you leave me and pretend that I don't know you. I understand and respect you, and I will never do it."
Blame you."
Jian Lin knows herself best. She has been a chivalrous and righteous person since she was a child, and does not want to see honest people being bullied. She will definitely take action when it is time to take action. As she grows older and is severely beaten by society, she learns to save the country through curves, but her original intention remains unchanged.
She couldn't be indifferent and turn a blind eye, but at the same time she understood the Demon Lord's thoughts. Why should she, a big villain and a big devil, fight for justice with her? She understood, she really understood.
The demon king looked at her steadily, his eyes were stained with the lights of the demon city, like two small clusters of flames, "Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? I mean you should stop causing trouble!"
How dare you call her stupid! But she endured it!
"I understand, I'm just talking about the worst case scenario. My cultivation level is low and I can't beat anyone. If something unexpected happens, young master, please leave me alone. I will never have any complaints!" Jian Lin smiled, shamelessly.
Top notch skills.
The demon king felt that he was wasting his words. He wanted to give Jian Lin a hard beating before entering the demon city, but that was it...
Forget it! Let her be!
No one can stop him from seeking death, he is too lazy to care!
The Demon Lord stopped talking, swung his cloak and started to go down the mountain. Jian Lin stumbled behind him, smiling and urging him not to be angry.
They chased each other all the way. As the sky gradually grew brighter, they reached the foot of the mountain and looked up. What they saw at first sight were the towering, dark and thick city walls and the closed city gates.
Surprisingly, the terrain outside the city gate is open and flat, but there are many tents in a mess. Looking at the top of the mountain last night, I only noticed the bright inside of the city, not what was outside the city.
Jian Lin looked far into the distance and found that there was no end in sight. Tents of various shapes and sizes were crowded together, as if they were in some kind of refugee camp.
The sun rose in the east and cast its light. The tent area gradually became quiet. Many monsters hurried back to the tents. Occasionally, a few conversations and howls were heard. Soon it became quiet again and the monster city fell asleep.
This point is very embarrassing. Demon Lord and Jian Lin are standing on the outside, which is really out of place.
The Demon Lord stretched out his hand to signal and led Jian Lin slowly back into the bushes, preparing to wait until the monsters woke up at night to watch.
The two returned to the foot of the mountain and found a place with dense bushes that was convenient for hiding. Demon Lord spotted a clean stone, walked over and sat down cross-legged. Jian Lin was not so particular and sat on the grass next to Demon Lord. At this time, she
There were many questions in my mind, and I was about to talk to the Demon Lord when I suddenly saw him take out a delicate crystal ball from his arms.
The small ball is just the right size to hold in the palm of your hand, with a layer of transparent material on the outside and a cloud of smoke inside. The smoke seems to be alive, constantly swirling and changing inside.
Jian Lin was shocked. This thing looked like something used by witches!
The Demon Lord handed her the crystal ball and said solemnly, "Okay, now we have arrived at the Demon City, and we have to start getting ready to do business. What the Holy Fox Grandma said, the Dragon Pill is in the Demon City, whether it is true or not, if it is true,
Once you sense the existence of the dragon pill, the smoke in the dragon's chant will turn into the shape of a flying dragon. Please hold it carefully and help me find the dragon pill carefully."
Jian Lin took it carefully, looked at the smoke carefully, and asked curiously, "Why is this thing called Dragon Yin?"
"Because there is a dragon roar inside," the Demon Lord seemed to have said nonsense, and then explained the reason, "The Dragon Clan has disappeared for thousands of years, and the flesh, flesh and scales of the Dragon Clan are extremely precious things, so the crazy profit-seekers did this.
Plant something to trap a dragon's roar in a crystal and sell it. In those days, this kind of thing was a plaything of the rich and powerful. When the crystal ball was broken, a dragon's roar would be heard. Later, the last green dragon fell, and this thing became rare and precious.
You should keep it well, take it out and take a look at it occasionally, and don’t be too ostentatious."
So that's it. Jian Lin carefully put the crystal ball into the Qiankun bag and raised another question, "Master, since the last blue dragon has fallen, why does the half-demon with the Dragon Pill appear now?"
"It's probably that a descendant of the dragon clan was left outside, combined with other monsters, and the offspring possessed the dragon pill." Demon Lord closed his eyes, began to meditate, and said lightly, "Actually, this question is not important. What is important is to find the dragon."
Dan.”
Seeing the cold tone of the Demon Lord, Jian Lin didn't ask any more questions. She also started to practice her skills, but she couldn't help but think about the half-demon possessing the Dragon Pill.
I don’t know what kind of monster it is. How will it face the pursuit and murderous intentions of the entire monster world? Will anyone help it and protect it? Or will it rely on its own strength to survive?
Jian Lin turned her head and looked at the dark and heavy walls of the demon city. She felt that in the demon world, anything that could destroy her outlook on life could happen. She really hated it all. When could she escape?
The sun gradually set in the west, dyeing the sky and the earth a beautiful orange color. Noises began to be heard in the tent area, monsters began to come out and move around, and there were all kinds of bumping and noisy sounds, making it noisy and chaotic.
At the same time, lights began to light up in the demon city, and the sound of flapping wings suddenly came from the sky. Jian Lin looked up, and her heart tightened. It was the demon emperor's guards, those big black birds, and they set off again...
I don’t know which ethnic group will disappear tonight.
The Demon Lord didn't care much, raised his steps and moved forward, urging Jian Lin, "Stop looking, let's go."
Jian Lin lowered his eyes, threw away all his thoughts, and followed the pace of the Demon Lord.
As night falls, the tent area becomes more and more lively. Monsters gather in groups, seemingly chatting and exchanging news. Some monsters set up stalls at the entrance of the tent, selling elixirs, magic weapons, wine and food, and making
Started a small business.
Jian Lin was dazzled by what he saw. The little life of the monsters was quite exciting.
The Demon Lord observed for a long time, walked to a wine stall, stretched out his hand and threw a few spiritual stones at the monster, and then asked for news.
Question: When does the city gate open?
Answer: It depends on the mood of the Demon King, I don’t know, everyone is waiting.
Question: Is there a way to get in?
Answer: Yes.
Question: Who should I ask for help?
The liquor-selling mouse demon stopped talking, his eyes rolled around, and he was playing with the spirit stones in his hand, which was an obvious hint.
The Demon Lord took out another handful, without even counting them, and threw them directly to the mouse demon. His posture was chic and generous, and extremely charming.
The mouse demon greedily took it, pointed to a more central place, and said in a low voice, "If you don't want to fight, go to Boss Snake. If you want to fight, go to Boss Leopard."
"What's the difference between the two?" Demon Lord asked.
"Those who don't want to fight want to retain their strength and go to the city to fight again. It takes a long time and costs a lot, so just wait slowly. Those who want to fight, sign a life and death order, and are willing to bet that the demon pill will be delivered to them. The final winner every night, Leopard
The boss has a way to send them in, one per day."
Demon Lord and Jian Lin looked at each other and discovered a serious question at the same time. Demon Lord must choose which side to fight, so what should Jian Lin do?
The two of them continued walking inside, and the Demon Lord asked her in a low voice, "What do you think?"
At this time, Jian Lin was talking to the system. Her first reaction was to use the teleportation talisman, but she had never entered the demon city and had no pictures in her mind, so the teleportation talisman could not be used.
"Otherwise, I'll wait for you outside the city?" Jian Lin could only think of this solution.
The Demon Lord glanced at her and criticized mercilessly, "You really have no fighting spirit at all."
Jian Lin waggled his big tail in a cute way, "Stop scolding me. I don't mind scolding you. Master, what can you do?"
