Yan Tiege carefully looked at the mountain beast god who was speaking to him. It was a huge deer with a pair of huge antlers covering its back. The body was covered with moss, and there were even flowers blooming on it. Yan Tiege had never seen a mountain beast god, but he knew in his memory that it was a divine beast that guarded the sleeping forest of the Western Continent after Nuwa left.

The Mountain Beast God slowly raised his front hooves, and in front of Yan Tiege, he turned into an old man with a gray beard and moss. He walked on foot to Yantiegona, green grass growing under his feet. Then, his appearance changed from an old man to a young girl, switching back and forth between men and women, and his voice also changed between male and female voices.

Yan Tiege looked at the mountain beast god and wondered: "I have caught you here, what else can I help you?"

The mountain beast god replied, "It wasn't me who caught you in, it's a demon separated from your body, called a nightmare. ”

"Nightmare?"

"Yes, listen to me. Tens of thousands of years ago, when Nuwa fabricated human beings with her own hands, her hand was scratched and a piece of meat fell from her hand, and that piece of meat finally became me. Nuwa named me Qilin, and I shared her worries and continued to manage the sleeping forest while she was resting and sleeping. Later, Nuwa left and flew into the chaos, and I was supposed to protect this forest, so that perhaps one day when Nuwa's primordial spirit wandered in the endless universe, I would be able to return. However, mankind has become suspicious of God, and wants to enter here and snatch the fruit from the tree of life. Once humans eat those fruits, it will affect the fate that Nuwa and the three ancient primordial gods have arranged for them. I was going to expel them, but I inherited Nuwa's will and couldn't harm humans. But in order to protect the tree of life, I had to do it. Just when I was in a dilemma, while I was sleeping, a demon was separated from the original god. ”

"This is impossible," Yan Tiege interrupted Qilin, "It is impossible for a demon to be separated from a god, and you, as a divine beast, should know where the demon came from." ”

"If you want to give birth to a demon, you must first kill the god, right?" Qilin's answer surprised Yan Tiege, because he did know how the demon came about. Then Kirin continued: "So, the first thing I did after my clone appeared, I asked him to kill me. ”

When Yan Tiege heard Qilin say this, he suddenly realized, and at the same time, he was frightened. Unexpectedly, in order to protect the Tree of Life, the Qilin could actually fall into a demon and let his clone kill him.

Qilin continued to speak to Yan Tiege in two different forms and voices, "After the nightmare killed me, my primordial spirit lodged in the fallen trunk of a tree of life, and I usually sleep on the trunk of that tree. After that, the Nightmare banished the humans in my place. I thought that after the Nightmare had banished the human, I would be able to destroy him and come out of the trunk again. However, the nightmare was more powerful than I could have imagined. He feeds on people's nightmares and can suck people's souls while they are asleep. As he sucked more and more souls, and his abilities surpassed mine, I lost the ability to compete with him. However, if you don't stop him, it will inevitably be another disaster. With the last of my strength, I sealed the Nightmare with me in that piece of wood. Then, the flower elves cut the piece of wood and put it into a porcelain pillow. That porcelain pillow was a seal that kept me and Nightmare from coming out. Then the elves took the porcelain pillow and looked for a place to hide it. The group of people who took the porcelain pillow away were the people who were called the Yu Clan by humans. ”

Yan Tiege looked surprised and said, "The Yu Clan, are you from the Flower Realm, aren't the Yu Clan humans?"

"The first they were human beings, people in the forest who were willing to follow Nuwa all their lives. Perhaps, over time, they themselves have forgotten. I even thought that I would stay safe and sound with the nightmare in that hidden place, but I didn't expect that someone actually found the porcelain pillow that sealed us, and released the nightmare from the porcelain pillow to do evil. I'm far away from the Sleeping Forest, and my divine power is already very weak. And nightmares will grow stronger and stronger as long as they are in a place where there are people. One day, I will no longer be able to contain him, he can break out of the seal, and then the world will definitely be ruined. ”

Yan Tiege finished listening to the story and was thinking carefully. Behind him was a tree trunk that grew out of the earth, and he wanted to sit on it, but the trunk seemed to be alive, and suddenly burrowed into the ground just as he was about to sit down. Yan Tiege saw this situation and made it clear that this mountain beast god looked down on him, so he replied: "You also know that I am a demon, since ancient times, gods and demons have not been separated, how can you need my help? Judging from your performance, you just don't like the way I look." ”

Kirin said, "Please don't blame, that's my instinctive reaction. Those trees and flowers are fragments of my divine power, and they are sensitive to magic. ”

"Since you've rejected me so much, how can I help you?"

"There are actually two realms in this ancient tree, one is my current Divine Domain, and the other is the Demon Domain that I just rescued you. The spirit of the nightmare is still in the Demon Realm, but I can't enter it. You are a demon, and you can naturally go in and out there. I want you to go to the Demon Realm, find the Nightmare, and destroy him. ”

Yan Tiege couldn't help laughing: "You said it very easily. Then you know, I don't have any mana now, just like an ordinary person, what can I do to defeat the nightmare?"

"That's because you lack the physical body and are not used to acting only as a primordial spirit. Nightmares have no physical body, they can only exist in people's dreams and in the spiritual world. If you want to defeat him, you must also fight off in the dream. ”

"What, you're going to let me fall asleep first?"

"Yes. ”

"I heard me right, and since I don't have any body now, why can I still sleep?"

"It's that you haven't learned how to distinguish between reality and fiction. When you have a physical body, you sleep because your body needs it. Now that you have no flesh, you have to sleep...... You can do it as long as you want. ”

Qilin's words were like an initiation, making Yan Tiege instantly understand the meaning. But there was no need for him to go to great lengths to help this god. Maybe he can get out of here on his own.

"But I'm also an old bone, maybe my strength is not as good as Nightmare?"

Qilin said: "Don't worry, although I can't enter the Demon Domain, I can open the passage in the Demon Domain at will." That's why I was able to find you and bring you out of the Demon Realm. In your time of danger, I can use the same means to get you back until you succeed. ”

"But I'm also a demon. I could have discussed with Nightmare that I would still seal you here, while he and I could break out of the seal and do anything outside. ”

Kirin shook his head and said, "You won't." ”

"How so?"

"Because, I can clearly see that most of your mind is like a woman. That woman is a descendant of Nuwa, a member of the Nuwa tribe. Look at that woman's eyes, it is definitely not the eyes that a murderous demon should have, and it can even be said that you have special feelings for the people of the Nuwa tribe. It's really unbelievable, a demon actually ......"

"That's enough!" Yan Tiege immediately scolded Qilin and said, "Don't say it again!"

With Yan Tiege's roar, the green plants beside him dodged even further. It seemed that with his roar, his magic had also recovered somewhat. A black aura arose around Yan Tiege. Seeing Yan Tiege's state change, Qilin knew that he had touched Yan Tiege's heartstrings, so he didn't continue to talk anymore.

"In short, you're not like any other demon. Nuwa's vision for her life is that human beings can be happy on the earth, and nightmares will be ruined if they fall into the world. ”

"I'll do it. But what you see in my head will rot forever in my stomach and I can't tell anyone. ”

"I'm not going to say it. Even, I didn't have a chance to say it. Because once the nightmare disappears, it also means that my primordial spirit is gone. Like Nuwa, I will fly into the chaos and follow her figure. ”

After Yan Tiege finished speaking, he began to act, and directly lay down in place. When the Qilin saw that he was beginning to fall asleep, he opened a spatial rift, sending Yan Tiege into another world in total darkness.

Back in the palace, facing the porcelain pillow with mysterious power and the whereabouts of Fu Qinggu, who was not yet clear, Yan Che couldn't make a move against Jin Shijie. Since there is no solution, we can only expect the ship to go straight to the bridgehead naturally, and see if there is a chance in the follow-up development. Yan Che looked at Snake Queen, who was still dancing and playing. However, Yan Che suddenly sensed that there seemed to be something else in Snake Hime's expression. He even used mind reading to read Snake Queen's thoughts, and Snake Queen had only one voice in her head: Don't do it!

Yan Che seems to feel that Snake Ji and Jin Shijie are not in the same group, and the current situation is more like Snake Ji acted in front of him in order to make Jin Shijie feel at ease. There was really no way, Yan Che had no choice but to agree to the other party.

"Okay, I'll marry you. When will you release my wife and uncle after we get married?"

Yan Che's answer made the demons panic, but they didn't expect him to compromise. And the snake queen looked very happy, so she said: "After marrying me, you will stay in the country of ten thousand snakes for the rest of your life, and you can't go out." As for the method...... You'll know when the time comes. ”

Snake Queen turned her face and glanced at one of the guards beside her, who immediately shouted to the snake man in the lobby, "Dance, play!" The tense atmosphere was suddenly dispersed by singing and dancing. The young wolf was still in the dark and said, "What is this? How can the young master marry that snake, is she worthy? Why do we have to lead the nose when we get here?"

Ji Wumei on the side said: "You shut up for me! Now that the other party has magic, and he has also taken the lives of Lord Wanshi and the young lady, where do you still have arrogant capital." But to be honest, a demon can be coerced, and I really can't hang my face if I change it. After speaking, Ji Wumei actually wanted to turn around and leave.

Ghost Shili shouted at her, "Don't stay too far away from me, or I won't be able to protect you." ”

"Who wants you to protect! If you want me to watch the young master marry another woman, instead of heartache, it is better to let those guys also take me in, so that my eyes will be calm. After saying that, Ji Wumei left, and Huang Qiying didn't plan to use a porcelain pillow to deal with her.

Although Yan Che agreed to Snake Ji, his anger towards Jin Shijie and others would not stop. While drinking, he kept staring at them, as if he had burned them to ashes with a cloud of black flame. But by doing so, there was no way to save Yan Tiege, and there was no way to know Fu Qinggu's whereabouts. Jin Shijie looked at Yan Che's angry but unable to make a move, triumphantly, raised a glass to Yan Che, and then pretended to congratulate: "Congratulations to the Demon King for having another good family affair." After you get married and spend candles in the cave room with the queen of the snake country, I will definitely release my wife and uncle. Then, Jin Shijie said to the snake queen: "I don't know when the queen wants to hold the wedding?"

Snake Ji replied with a smile: "Isn't it a good day today, everyone is here, let's choose today!" Then she glanced at Yan Che again, and there was always something else to reveal in her eyes, but what she said was charming, "Tonight, I'm going to taste what it's like to be a demon man." ”
