Chapter 86: The Intention of the Superior Personi
Ming Tianbei clearly saw that at this moment, Can Ge knelt outside the small courtyard!
His body, inch by inch shattered!
And then it disappeared, evaporated!
Even the Demon Bottle bestowed by the Demon Marshal had shattered, its demonic essence completely vanished without a trace, leaving behind only some powder, drifting away with the wind…
Ming Tianbei was dumbfounded.
His body even started trembling faintly!
Can Ge’s cultivation level was also at the peak of the Xuanmo Realm!
Moreover, he had treasures given by the Demon Marshal. It was said that in the Lower World, unless a true powerhouse took action, he could not possibly be troubled.
But now, Can Ge was simply approaching the small courtyard, and he was wiped out completely and cleanly!
Just who on earth is in this small courtyard?He thought of the
“senior” the Demon Monarch personally mentioned!
"It seems that the Demon Monarch has connections with some terrifying beings in the Immortal Domain, it must be so, and now he has received protection from them… With such a senior, the Demon Monarch’s primeval soul should be safe for now…”
He murmured,
“I should now hide myself, secretly protect the Demon Monarch, and at the same time, notify Gong Ya Demon Marshal!”
He immediately withdrew quietly, not daring to approach the terrifying small courtyard!
At this moment.
Xuan Tian Realm, on the periphery of the secret Xuanhuang Mist Sea.
Two rays of light were fast approaching.
Before long, two middle-aged men dressed in linen clothes had appeared.
It was none other than Yu Chenbing and Wang Chuan!
"How did it go? Have you figured out the identity of that existence in the Southern Territory?”
"Is it that demon cultivator?”
Everyone crowded around, asking one after another.
Yu Chenbing nodded and said,
“Just as expected, the one from the Southern Territory of the Xuan Tian Realm is Ming Tianbei, who descended from the Demon Domain of the Saint Cloud City of the Immortal Realm three hundred years ago!”
"Moreover, his current cultivation level is at least at the Mysterious Immortal Peak Realm!”
Upon hearing this, everyone had a serious expression.
"Mysterious Immortal Peak… We are no match for him, unless we find someone of the same level from the Sub-rudder to come. And to be safe, we can’t just send one!”
"Right, it’s a pity that Xuan Tian Realm’s status is insufficient. If a Heavenly Immortal came, it would cause chaos, otherwise, we could just have a Heavenly Immortal come directly…”
"We can’t delay; we must inform the Sub-rudder immediately.”
Everyone spoke in turn.
But on Yu Chenbing’s face, there was only a hint of a cold smile.
"Why involve the Sub-rudder?”
He said coldly,
“Now that we have identified this person, as long as Northern Immortal Domain’s Saint Cloud City learns that the demon cultivator who stole the Heavenly Soul Sect’s Heavenly Soul Pearl three hundred years ago is hiding here, they will naturally take action!”
"Let them do the dirty work.”
"I will immediately send a message to Chen Yun, letting him spread the news!”
The small mountain village.
It was time for dinner again.
A group of disciples had already sat down, looking forward to their meal.
Nan Feng and Zi Ling were busy in the kitchen for a while, bringing out the meals, a table full of fragrant dishes.
Everyone started to eat right away.
The little girl sat next to Li Fan, and watching this scene, she was shocked.
” Holy Medicine… even in the Demon Palace, it is rarely enjoyed…”
She murmured in her heart.
Li Fan placed a chopsticks-full of vegetables into her bowl and said with a smile,
"It looks like you haven’t had a proper meal for a long time, hurry up and eat, you’re still growing.”
This child had been on the run for so long, definitely alternating between full and starving.
Since he had taken her in, Li Fan naturally wanted her to live a bit better.
"He has realized my identity, knows I’ve been dormant for a thousand years, and moreover, has specially prepared Holy Medicine to help me grow…”
The little girl murmured to herself, hesitated for a moment, and then looking at Li Fan, said,
“Big Brother… why are you so nice to me?”
As she spoke, her tender voice trembled slightly.
It was you who asked me to call you Big Brother… It’s not that I’m being disrespectful…
These thoughts were filling her mind.
And her words, of course, were an indirect inquiry, asking what intentions this senior had towards her…
Li Fan only smiled and said,
“Because you’re still a child.”
He paused, then added,
“Stay here for the time being; there’s no need to worry… I knowyou’ve been through a lot in the past, but some memories should be forgotten. If possible, think of this place as a home and start anew.”
He was comforting the little girl.
After all, she was just a child, and had already been through so much, her family had surely suffered great hardships, and she was being hunted… Such childhood memories could easily affect her future growth.
Li Fan hoped she wouldn’t have to worry or be scared, and could forget some of those painful memories to live a happy life.
But the little girl was stunned.
Because she was still just a child…?
It seemed that her identity and past could not escape the penetrating eyes of this senior; he had seen through everything!
To have her forget her past, was he trying to make her forget everything about the Nine Holy Demon Monarch?
Start over?
Did this mean that he wanted to reshape her life?
The little girl pondered this, growing more and more convinced that this senior likely intended to change her life, to have her abandon everything of the Demon Race?
She felt she couldn’t see through this senior at all.
What exactly were the intentions of such a noble person?
She wasn’t sure. In her Spiritual Sprout state, she was both naive and mature… not thinking of many things, but she understood that she must have fallen into the hands of this noble person!
All she could do was silently nod and say,
“I will listen to… Big Brother.”
In front of such a senior… She, a Demon Monarch, must appear obedient, and not anger him at any costs!
She thought to herself.
Li Fan smiled, reached out to tousle the little girl’s hair, and asked,
“What is your name?”
The little girl was about to say the words
“Nine Holy”, but suddenly remembered that Li Fan had asked her to forget everything…
She blinked her big eyes and said,
“Big Brother… I’ve already forgotten my previous name. Could you give me one?”
Upon hearing this, Li Fan thought for a moment and then said,
“How about Xinning? If the heart is peaceful, the sky could fall, and you would not be startled.”
"If the heart is peaceful, the sky could fall, and you would not be startled…”
The little girl repeated, then obediently said,
“Xinning thanks Big Brother!”
Li Fan chuckled and said,
“Let’s eat.”
Outside a small mountain village, within a particular mountain peak.
Ming Tianbei took out incense!
It was a stick of black incense made of an unknown material, exuding a faint and terrifying demonic aura.
"Lighting the Demon Soul Incense will let Gong Ya Demon Marshal know that the Demon Monarch has awakened… and she can also immediately locate my position and come quickly for support…”
He muttered, a wisp of pale blue flame igniting in his hand.
The flame touched the stick of black incense.
The incense began to burn slowly.
A stream of pale blue smoke gradually filled the stone chamber he was in, ultimately forming a pale blue wall of mist!
Within the wall of mist seemed to swirl countless demonic shadows, hordes of Fierce Ghosts wailing, and a chilling wind blowing, causing even the entire mountain peak outside to howl with the wind!
"Demon Guard Ming Tianbei seeks an audience with the Demon Marshal!”
"Demon Guard Ming Tianbei seeks an audience with the Demon Marshal!”
He kept calling out, summoning!
It didn’t take long.
From within the pale blue smoke wall, a vague silhouette emerged.
It seemed that one could make out a figure in a long dress, with an extremely lengthy hem and a tall figure, yet the face was not visible.
"Has the Demon Monarch awakened?”
A faint voice, as if coming from a very distant place, ethereal like a mist.
Ming Tianbei knew that Gong Ya Demon Marshal was communicating with him across uncountable realms!
"Yes! Demon Marshal, the Demon Monarch has woken up, but Jing Mie Demon Marshal’s people have discovered us, and today they pursued us…”
He spoke.
"Is the Demon Monarch safe now?”
Gong Ya Demon Marshal’s voice carried a hint of seriousness.
"Safe, in the Xuantian Realm, a formidable power from the Immortal Domain has taken in the Demon Monarch, and also killed the pursuers sent by Jing Mie Demon Marshal…”
Ming Tianbei answered.
"A giant of the Immortal Domain?… That’s not good… I will come immediately…”
Gong Ya Demon Marshal’s words grew fainter and ultimately disappeared.
The pale blue mist wall slowly dissipated, and in front of Ming Tianbei, the Demon Soul Incense had burnt out!
