Chapter 242 - 242 The Sandwich and the Window That Was Left Open
Xiahou Cenyi also put on her Grand Elder’s airs and said seriously, “Not only that, the Demonic Abyss in the Yonghui Sea is guarded by the Sea Slashing Tower. It’s impossible to break through. I’m afraid that the demons have found a new way to enter the human world.”
Good! As expected of the Grand Elder, she had calculated everything!
Liu Yuan secretly cheered. He had actually guessed another reason for the huge explosion of demons in the Human Realm–
As mentioned before, the Demon Realm where the demon race lived was under the sea, where the earth fire started to surge. The magma crack at the bottom of the sea was called the Demonic Abyss, and it was the only way for the demon race to come to the Human Realm.
Before the second great Human-Demon War, there was only one large Demonic Abyss in the world, and it was the one under the Yonghui Sea.
However, after that, a few small Demonic Abysses appeared in the world. Under the concealment of the demon race, they were very difficult to detect.
For example, when the monkeys were chasing Liu Yuan in the Jiuyuan mountain range, he accidentally entered the ‘Snake in a Cup’ instance dungeon. It was actually a Demonic Abyss. It should have been opened by the sealed Demon Dragon, but after it was defeated by the players, the Demonic Abyss no longer existed.
In some other remote mountains, old forests, and desolate and barren lands, such as the Extreme North, some Demonic Abyss emerged, allowing some demons to fish in troubled waters and break through the blockade. They came to the Human Realm and possessed the bodies of human cultivators or mortals to hide.
Liu Yuan took the opportunity to mention the possible increase in the number of Demonic Abysses, especially to catch Ling Hua’s attention. Her prestige among the younger generation of the Jade Mirage Sect had even faintly surpassed her master and uncle-master. Whether it was her identity as the Eldest Senior Sister of the Jade Mirage Sect or the position of the Sect Master that she would inherit in the future, she could play a great guiding role in the Righteous Path.
Although Xiahou Cenyi had a high status, she offended more people than he had imagined because of her unreliable personality. So it was better to let her stop.
The Grand Elder seemed to have sensed something and looked at him with a faint smile. Then, she reached out and pinched his cheek, saying, “Only after hearing you say it did I know that the Demon Realm also has this kind of hierarchy… Speaking of which, that Demon Lord’s daughter is interested in you. Junior Brother, in the future, if she brings her subordinates to kill us, do you plan to marry her or kill her?”
Liu Yuan was not sure if she was jealous or not. With his face pinched, he looked serious and mumbled, “The demon race is the mortal enemy of the human race. Naturally, we have to exterminate them. Moreover, she didn’t care about my life at that time and forcibly transformed me into a demon. She didn’t seem to be interested in me. She clearly just wanted my body.”
Xiahou and Ling Hua were stunned, and even Ling Hua’s lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, not to mention the Grand Elder. She laughed out loud on Liu Yuan’s body and kept patting his shoulder. In the end, she simply rolled around on the bed.
“Hey! Mind your image!”
And I always feel like I’m being laughed at. It’s an insult to my dignity. Is it unreasonable for a girl to covet me? Aren’t you all one of those who covet my body?!
Liu Yuan’s mouth twitched. Xiahou Cenyi had enough of laughing and turned over, holding her face and lying behind him. Her clothes were messy, and her black hair fell down like a waterfall and spread out on the bed. She squinted her eyes lazily, her expression evil yet charming, and her two white and slender legs were faintly visible under her skirt.
Although the Grand Elder’s figure was not as good as Ling Hua’s and could only be called ‘curvaceous’, her legs were really long, as white as ivory. Her jade feet were slender and beautiful like bamboo shoots, and her toes were white and tender like pearls.
“Are you hungry?” Xiahou suddenly asked.
Liu Yuan subconsciously replied, “Yes.”
When he came back to his senses, he was suddenly a little embarrassed.
He felt that the majesty he had used to intimidate the heroes in the Secret Realm had instantly plummeted and disappeared.
He had become a pervert who craved other people’s bodies.
The Grand Elder first laughed, and then looked at him with bright eyes. Surprisingly, she did not continue laughing at him but stretched out her legs to step on his feet. “Then let’s wait for my main body to come out of seclusion.”
Liu Yuan looked at her in horror, then at Ling Hua. He was stiff and did not dare to move.
Ling Hua’s expression was indifferent as she said, “The sword spirit can not leave its body for too long. Senior’s spirit body has not recovered yet. It’s better to go in and recuperate for a while.”
Xiahou Cenyi blinked and smiled. “Actually, there’s something I need to tell you. Junior Martial Brother has already fused with the Xuanyang Pearl that the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family uses to give birth to their offspring. It’s full of yang energy… It’s a great supplement for dual cultivation.”
“I’ll stabilize my sword spirit body after doing it ten or twenty times,” she said with a serious expression.
After all, Ling Hua had been cultivating since she was young, and she could not stand such presumptuous remarks and pursed her lips to scold her. However, the person opposite her was the Grand Elder of the Sky Treasure Pavilion, who was extremely senior. For a moment, she really had no choice.
Xiahou Cenyi was very interested. She took back her foot, tidied her clothes, and smiled. “Alright, alright, let’s stop playing. Let’s talk about serious matters.”
Liu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief and told them everything he had experienced in the Martial Emperor’s Tomb, including the matter of the Martial Emperor’s remnant soul possessing Tang Yuanhua. He then took the opportunity to ask, “Jiao’er, what’s with that demon of yours?”
Ling Hua heard him call her by her nickname and thought of Xiahou Cenyi’s words. Her neck suddenly turned red. She turned her head and said, I’ve cast ‘Retracement of Life and Death’ on you many years ago, so I can keep track of your state. I can get half of your state, or share half of the injury when you are fatally injured. I sensed that you were invaded by demonic Qi and your life was in danger, so I immediately launched it. Who knew that you’d reach a state of balance with the demonic Qi in your body… So now, you know why I came to the tomb of the Martial Emperor.”
Simply put, she would get half of the buff and take half of the damage.
Only then did Liu Yuan come to a sudden realization. No wonder the demonic Qi had been stagnant despite his severe injuries. It had even gradually stabilized. It was all because of her.
Liu Yuan was touched and guilty at the same time. He could not help but move his index finger when he saw the rare coy and coquettish look on the cold and beautiful woman’s face. However, the Grand Elder behind him began to play tricks again and said teasingly, “Aren’t you going to comfort your Fairy?”
What Fairy?
Liu Yuan did not know whether to laugh or cry, but Xiahou, who was behind him, pushed him forward forcefully, directly pushing him into that gentle ‘land’.
The Grand Elder was at the back, and Ling Hua was at the front. Liu Yuan was sandwiched between the two beauties.
Just as the three of them were messing around, the boat suddenly shook. Ling Hua’s expression froze and she said, “There’s demonic Qi underwater.”
A young girl’s delicate voice came from the bow, “Senior Sister! This is bad! There’s a dragon shadow in the river!”
Before she finished speaking, a pretty face looked in from the window that Xiahou Cenyi had opened just now, only to see the chaotic scene of the three people on the bed.
The girl in the Jade Mirage Daoist robe opened her eyes wide, and her anxious expression suddenly turned into shock. Then, she suddenly felt a strong spiritual energy, and she was aggressively pulled in.
Then, the window was slammed shut.
