Chapter 126 is another 4000-word chapter
Yu Fengxue did not show any panic in the face of the sudden attack.
Yu Fengxue dodged to block Qin Muyue, grabbed the fire whip, and spoke in a cold voice.
"Although water is mysterious, it is the highest virtue. The Demon King's lineage is of the Fire Virtue, so we still need the Water Virtue to offer blessings. Don't shed blood in front of the Emperor."
Seeing Yu Fengxue's calm response, Jimo Hou couldn't help but feel a little respect in his heart. He smiled slightly, knocked on the table, and signaled He Zhinong to take back the fire whip.
"As expected of you, you are the eldest senior brother of Tianjian Peak. You have deep insights into matters concerning the destiny of the country." Jimo Hou said, with some appreciation in his tone.
Seeing this, Lady Ying started to think about it and blushed: "He Zhinong, they are my guests, don't be rude!"
Upon hearing this, He Zhinong put away the fire whip, snorted coldly, and stepped aside.
The Regent King's gaze stayed on Qin Muyue for a moment. He looked at Yu Fengxue, narrowed his fox eyes like the bright moon, and spoke slowly, his voice as gentle as a drizzle: "Since Yu Fengxue is so confident, I am very curious about what kind of auspicious sign Shuide will offer?"
"There are eight auspicious signs in the world, and the nine-tailed fox alone occupies seven. Naturally, my senior brother does not dare to compete with the nine-tailed fox clan for the position of auspicious sign with his sincerity." Qin Muyue shook her folding fan and stared at the regent's raccoon fur cloak, which seemed to feel very good.
[I think this flower breeze still has its charm! ]
[Daozu, found the son of destiny]
[Okay, turn on Hua Xinfeng's favorability]
[Flower Wind Favorability 0/100]
Jun Yuzheng: Yue'er, you just want to cultivate yourself, right...?
The Regent nodded slightly and continued, "Oh? From what you said, it is worthwhile to talk to your senior brother."
“I heard that the Demon King’s Seal was left in the ghost world. I can help you find it in my living soul.” As soon as Yu Fengxue said this, his murderous intent became even stronger.
Yu Fengxue revealed the secret of the entire demon royal family. Hua Xinfeng was worried that he could not open the secret realm of the Demon King's inheritance, but he did not expect that a cultivator actually knew such a secret.
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on him, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"Yu Fengxue, what are your conditions?" Hua Xinfeng raised his eyebrows and asked calmly.
Yu Fengxue's face was full of indifference, and there was a hint of vigilance in his eyes when he looked at Hua Xinfeng. He pondered for a while in the room farthest from Hua Xinfeng before answering: "My junior sister doesn't like to be locked up in the room. She likes the open mountains and rivers. You try to arrange a good location for her so that she can live like her own home. Don't hurt her. How about it?"
Hua Xinfeng's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he seemed to be quite interested in Yu Fengxue's proposal. "Yu Fengxue, if you can really find the Demon King Seal, my demon clan will naturally not treat you and your junior sister unfairly?"
Lady Ying and Marquis Jimo were naturally happy to see this happen. The ghost world is where every living being goes after death, so it is naturally not so easy to come back. Even those who are in the Tribulation Crossing Stage would not dare to make such big claims.
Yu Fengxue nodded, his eyes firm: "I'm willing to give it a try."
Qin Muyue was not worried. As the deputy body of the Lord Fu Guang, the ghost world had to give him some face. It was impossible for the underworld not to let him come back.
[The courtyard that Senior Brother requested cannot be close to Hua Xinfeng. Woohoo, I want to cultivate.]
Jun Yuzheng: Oh, bad girl, find Hua Xinfeng's location for your master honestly, don't mess around with wild men
Yu Fengxue's proposal made Hua Xinfeng fall into deep thought. He knew that this condition was not excessive.
Hua Xinfeng smiled slightly: "Yu Fengxue, I have seen your sincerity, but this matter concerns the future of the demon race, we can't make a rash decision." He paused and continued: "However, if you can prove your strength, perhaps we can reach some kind of agreement."
Yu Fengxue nodded slightly to show her understanding. "I understand."
Qin Muyue interrupted and said, "Brother, this trip is dangerous, you have to be careful. I don't want to see you get hurt."
Yu Fengxue glanced at Qin Muyue, her heart blossoming. She suppressed the joy in her voice and said lightly: "Yue'er, believe me...brother."
Jimo Hou knocked on the table to break the silence. "Well, let's not waste time here. Yu Fengxue, if you really want to do this, show us your strength first."
Yu Fengxue nodded, he stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and slowly drew out the Lotus-Destroying Sword from his waist.
"Everyone, please look." Yu Fengxue said, and swung his sword. A sword energy instantly cut through the air and pointed directly at a pillar in the hall.
Everyone only saw a flash of sword light, and the pillar broke into two pieces silently and fell down slowly.
Everyone was slightly satisfied.
"Yu Fengxue, your strength is indeed good." Hua Xinfeng said slowly, "Since you are willing to work for the demon clan, we will naturally not treat you unfairly. We will try our best to meet your sister's request. As for the matter of the demon king seal, you can start preparing."
Yu Fengxue smiled slightly, knowing that he had taken the first step in his plan. "Thank you, Regent. I will definitely live up to your trust."
Qin Muyue waved her small folding fan even more vigorously, and this wave of calculations finally began.
"There is no time to lose. Please send one person from the demon tribe with me to the border of the ghost world." Yu Fengxue looked like he was concerned about their precious jade seal.
Hua Xinfeng pondered for a moment, called up General Hu, and said in a serious voice: "General Hu will go with you. I am looking forward to hearing good news from you."
General Hu stepped forward and saluted: "Yes, Regent." He turned to Yu Fengxue and said sternly: "Yu Fengxue, please follow me. We will set off immediately."
Yu Fengxue nodded, then left the hall with General Hu and embarked on a journey to the border of the ghost world.
Qin Muyue looked at Yu Fengxue's departing back, she turned to look at Ying Nujun, pretending to be worried and asked: "Sister Yu Ren, will Senior Brother be in danger on this trip?"
Lady Ying smiled softly beside Marquis Jimo. "Little girl, everyone has their own destiny. Why don't you come with me to pick a courtyard?"
Qin Muyue looked embarrassed, half covering her pretty face with her folding fan, and smiled slightly. "How dare Qin trouble you, sister? Just find a demon servant to lead the way for Qin."
Hua Xinfeng glanced at the girl in the wheelchair, with a hint of amusement in his eyes. His beautiful eyes moved slightly, and he said in a clear voice: "If Fairy Qin doesn't mind, how about staying in Zhanchunyuan?"
"Nice name. I, Qin, would be honored to refuse the Regent's kindness." Qin Muyue clasped his fists towards him.
Qin Muyue slapped the spirit beast bag and the white snake appeared. It immediately transformed into a handsome scholar with a bookish air and pushed the wheelchair for Qin Muyue professionally.
"A snake in the fusion stage without a contract is now willing to serve Fairy Qin. It really brings shame to the demon clan." Jimo Hou took a deep look at the white snake. He seemed to have seen this person in the East China Sea, but the last time he attended the Dragon Palace Banquet was two thousand years ago, and the impression of him had long been vague.
Qin Muyue smiled lightly, not seeming to care about Jimo Hou's words. "My Lord, you are wrong. All things have spirits. It is fate that you turned into a snake to serve me." Her eyes stayed on the white snake for a moment, and she touched the Zen Love Ring on her finger.
If we can kill the Ghost Dragon Lord this time, it will be a great deed with the help of the White Snake. I hope Bai Yueguang can realize some truths and not be so obsessed with the past.
The white snake felt Qin Muyue's gaze and nodded slightly to show its loyalty.
Although he was once a strong man in the fusion period, he now chooses to serve Qin Muyue without any complaints.
Seeing this, Lady Ying's eyes flashed with a strange look. She seemed to be quite interested in the relationship between Qin Muyue and the white snake. "Fairy Qin is so lucky to have such a loyal demon man by her side." She said with a smile, a hint of envy in her tone.
[This is a bit offensive, Bai Yueguang is Ling'er's master, and the couple I like cannot be separated]
[Daozu, please read less storybooks! ]
Qin Muyue smiled slightly and didn't say much.
Hua Xinfeng looked at Qin Muyue, a trace of deep thought flashed in his eyes. "Fairy Qin, Zhanchunyuan has been prepared for you, you can rest first. If you need anything, you can always find me." There was a trace of concern in his voice.
Qin Muyue turned her head and nodded to Hua Xinfeng. "Thank you, Regent. I will remember it." After that, she followed the waiter and slowly left the hall under the push of the white snake.
Jimo Hou looked at Qin Muyue's departing back, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something, but in the end he didn't say much.
Qin Muyue came all the way to Zhanchunyuan. The scenery here was beautiful and full of spring, which was exactly the environment she liked.
"This is such a great place." Qin Muyue exclaimed, and her mood seemed to become cheerful because of the beautiful environment.
"Fairy Qin, if you need me, ring the bell in the courtyard and I will come immediately."
Qin Muyue nodded slightly and let Baishe push her wheelchair to stroll in the courtyard.
The girl was admiring the spring scenery in the garden and feeling the gentle breeze across her cheeks. She felt a little drowsy.
Baishe stood silently behind her wheelchair, observing the surroundings vigilantly to ensure Qin Muyue's safety.
Suddenly, the silence of the courtyard was broken by the sound of hurried footsteps. Then, a petite figure hurriedly climbed over the wall, followed by several panicked maids.
The demon girl looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing a light green dress, her long hair cascading over her shoulders like a waterfall, and her deer eyes were full of mischief.
There was a hint of panic on her face, as if she was avoiding something.
"Oh, we finally got rid of them!" Hua Ling patted her chest and said breathlessly, completely unaware of Qin Muyue and the White Snake in the courtyard.
The maids chased to the gate of the courtyard and saw Qin Muyue there. They stopped in a hurry and saluted respectfully: "Human...human cultivator? How could there be someone cultivating here..." They looked at each other, not knowing how to react. They hadn't seen another species for a long time and were a little confused.
Qin Muyue found Hua Ling's appearance a little funny, and she raised her folding fan. "It's okay, you guys can leave first, I'll talk to Miss Hua Ling."
The maids were frightened by the arrogant manner in which the man was being scolded, and they quickly bowed and retreated, leaving Hua Ling and Qin Muyue in the courtyard.
Hua Ling then noticed Qin Muyue's outfit. She looked at her curiously, with a flash of surprise in her eyes. "Who are you? Why have I never seen you in the demon tribe?"
Qin Muyue gently waved her folding fan and answered elegantly: "My name is Qin Muyue, and I am a disciple of Tianjian Peak. I came to the demon tribe this time because I have some things to deal with."
Hua Ling blinked, and seemed to be very interested in Qin Muyue's identity. "Tianjian Peak? What is that place? It sounds very powerful, like a place where people live."
Qin Muyue smiled and did not answer directly, but changed the subject: "Miss Hua Ling, why did you come here in such a panic?"
Hua Ling stuck out her tongue and said a little embarrassedly: "I... I just didn't want to attend those boring Qiqiao banquets, so I sneaked out. I didn't expect those maids to find out so quickly."
Qin Muyue felt close to Hua Ling's frankness and playfulness, and waved her folding fan. "Banquets can be boring sometimes. You are tired from running. Take a rest here and have a cup of tea."
Hua Ling nodded, seeming to agree with Qin Muyue's words. "Okay, you're a nice person."
The White Snake took the two girls to the pavilion and made a pot of tea.
The two chatted casually in the courtyard. Qin Muyue found that although Hua Ling was naughty and a little brother-complex, she was not too scheming.
The White Snake served tea, added pastries, and even picked a few flowers for decoration, looking very skilled in taking care of people.
Qin Muyue sat in the pavilion, gently waving a folding fan in her hand, her eyes gentle and deep.
"Miss Hua Ling," Qin Muyue spoke softly, the rhythm of her voice like falling flowers flowing over water, "I see your last name is not simple?"
"As for me, naturally there is someone in the demon race with the last name Hua." She kept the secret on purpose, with a playful smile on her lips.
Qin Muyue smiled slightly, her movements elegant and natural, and gently placed the folding fan on the stone table. Then she reached out, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for Hua Ling and herself.
"Miss Hua Ling," Qin Muyue said as she poured tea, "Although I am a human cultivator, I know a thing or two about the demon race. The surname Hua is the surname of the Nine-Tailed Royal Family. The eldest prince is Hua Bu Luo, the second prince is Hua Chu Jian, the third prince is Hua Chao, and there is also the Twenty-Four Hua Xin Feng, the demon regent with a poetic name. They are all proof of the uniqueness of the royal family."
There was a genuine look in her eyes and a hint of sincerity in her tone.
Hua Ling looked at Qin Muyue and seemed to be moved by her sincerity. She pouted and said hesitantly, "Actually, my name is not that poetic. It's something used in the game played by the lady and her husband."
Qin Muyue nodded gently, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes. "I'll explain in advance, no offense, but I heard that after the late emperor died in battle, your cousin, the Second Prince, disappeared in the Buddha and Demon Tower in order to save your mother. Is that true?"
Hua Ling picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put it down. A trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes. "Well... after the war, the Demon Queen wanted to purge the royal family and promote the Second Prince as the crown prince. However, the Third Prince's mother's clan and the First Prince's Feiyi mother's clan united to oppose it, and she finally disappeared in the Buddha Demon Tower."
Qin Muyue had long anticipated that the royal secrets would be revealed later, and she sighed calmly: "It's really slippery, and now the third prince is also missing."
As she spoke, she observed Hua Ling's reaction, trying to capture more information from her eyes and expression.
Hua Ling pouted and argued, "Brother Hua Chao is not missing, he is imprisoned...!"
"Hua Ling!" Hua Xinfeng came over immediately after hearing the maid's report. As soon as he arrived, he saw his good sister speaking from the heart.
