Chapter 128: The Truth
No matter how shocked and flustered the head of the family and the leader were, Mei Niang finally opened her eyes after I don't know how long it had been.
Seeing that the magic spring in front of her had turned into an ordinary spring pool, Mei Niang was thoughtful.
After a while, she realized that all the people who had come with her were gone, and she was the only one standing there alone on the edge of the big magic spring.
Mei Niang was a little strange, and she couldn't experience the changes in her body in time, so she began to try to walk the way she came.
Just a few steps away, Mei Niang heard a very neat running sound, she looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a demon general dressed like a general, leading a group of demon soldiers to run in her direction.
Mei Niang didn't know what was going on, so she stood there, wanting to wait for them to pass before looking for a way out.
And when the group went straight to her, they actually stopped.
Mei Niang looked at the demon general, but the demon general knelt down directly, and shouted loudly: "I've seen the holy woman!"
About a hundred demon soldiers behind the demon general knelt down at the same time, and shouted in their mouths: "I have seen the Holy Maiden!"
Mei Niang looked left and right and found that there was no one else nearby except herself.
Could it be that this holy woman refers to herself?
Mei Niang was a little puzzled, but she didn't show any expression, in her opinion, no matter what happened, it was the best plan to change now.
The demon general continued, "I respectfully invite the Holy Maiden to move to the palace!"
Mei Niang frowned, and asked in a very confused tone half-truthfully: "The saint you are talking about, do you mean me?"
Mei Niang's reaction was within the expectation of the demon general, and he hurriedly replied in a very affirmative tone: "Exactly, please also ask the holy woman to move to the palace, Your Majesty and the national teacher are waiting." ”
Mei Niang simply didn't ask anymore, but motioned to the demon general to lead the way.
The demon general turned sideways and showed Mei Niang the way very respectfully. This pose reminded Mei Niang of her previous life, and she didn't know how many times she was led to see the emperor like this.
Mei Niang's thoughts drifted a little away, but the journey was obviously not so long, and before she could come back to her senses, she had already arrived at the so-called palace.
This palace is very close to the magic spring, and the guards are as strict as the magic spring, Mei Niang couldn't help but turn her mind, no matter why the other party would call herself a saint, but if you think about it, the status should be transcendent, if you ask for some magic spring water, it shouldn't be a problem, right?
Now that he already has magic power, the biggest purpose of this time has been achieved, but if he can refine some magic pills, in case he and Li Haoyu take it, they can also have magic power, wouldn't everyone be happy, maybe he can practice the Heaven Killing Technique with them in the future, and when he deals with the immortal clan, won't he have more chances of winning?
Mei Niang had a lot of thoughts in her head, but she didn't hesitate at her feet, and after following the demon general step into the palace step by step, she found that the decoration of this palace was even better than the main hall she had just passed.
It seems that in the several worlds that I have been to, putting aside the special netherworld, although the human race will enjoy it, it is not so luxurious, while the demon race pays more attention to the mood, but this demon race pays special attention to the difference between levels, and the degree of luxury brought by it is also different.
Speaking of the huge night pearls inlaid in this palace, I am afraid that even the entire demon world human race, I may not be able to find a few, but in the main hall of this palace, there are thousands of them, which shows that when decorating at that time, the demons put a lot of effort into it.
Sitting in the main hall, there is obviously a demon emperor, because he is wearing a bright red imperial robe, very high-profile and ostentatious, and sitting next to him must be the national teacher, because the color of his robe is only slightly darker than the red, it is dark purple, but it is inexplicably noble.
There were still about dozens of people standing in the hall, who might be officials or something, Mei Niang had some judgments in her heart, but she didn't stop at her feet, but walked straight to the vicinity of the emperor and the national teacher, and did not salute, but looked at the two with a puzzled expression.
The emperor and the national teacher glanced at each other, couldn't help laughing, and stood up in person to greet Mei Niang.
"Zhang Mei, from today on, you will be the saintess of my demon clan. After stopping in front of Mei Niang, the emperor looked Mei Niang up and down with a smile, and then opened his mouth to say.
The national teacher nodded on the side and added: "Our demon clan has not produced a saint for more than a thousand years, and I think Zhang Niangzi also has some doubts about this matter, we will talk to you about these later, and now, please take a seat and accept everyone's visit." ”
At this time, some maids came over from Mei Niang's side, gently supported Mei Niang, and led her to the left side of the emperor.
In this way, the emperor originally sat on the right side of the national teacher, and on the left side was Mei Niang.
Mei Niang probably has some judgment on her current status, which should be similar to the national teacher, belonging to spiritual guidance, but it will definitely be different from the national teacher.
The emperor should be the nominal leader of the demon race.
As soon as Mei Niang sat down, the emperor motioned for someone to send a tray, with a cloak and a box on the plate.
The national teacher and the emperor walked to the place where Mei Niang was sitting again, and after signaling Mei Niang not to stand up, the national teacher put the cloak on Mei Niang, but the color was purple and red very close to the national teacher's robe.
The emperor opened the box, took out a special crown-like headdress from it, and gently put it on Mei Niang's head.
At the same time, all the officials in the main hall bowed down at the same time, and shouted in their mouths: "The emperor is shengming, the national teacher is shengming, and I have seen the saint!"
The emperor couldn't help laughing, obviously in a very happy mood, while the national teacher was smiling silently on the side, with no expression on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
Mei Niang quickly judged the relationship between the saint and the emperor and the national teacher in her mind, but because there were no clues, she couldn't figure out anything for the time being.
After the emperor signaled the ministers to retreat, he stayed alone with the national teacher.
This time, it was the national teacher who took the initiative to open his mouth and asked, "I think there are many puzzles in the little lady's heart, right?"
Mei Niang nodded.
The national teacher began to tell.
It turns out that when the demon clan was first established, there was a division of labor between the national teacher, the saint and the emperor, it should be accurate to say that the three at that time were equivalent to the emperor being the leader, and the national teacher and the saint were similar to the right hand.
The emperor is responsible for the dominance of all things of the demon clan, and the national teacher is responsible for the cultivation of the follow-up strength of the demon clan, and the holy woman is responsible for finding qualified demon women in the demon clan, and after giving them the magic light, she and the national teacher choose potential demon men together, and then become a demon couple.
Demon couples can practice a very special technique of the demon race, and this exercise is not as simple as one plus one. For example, a pair of demon couples in the primordial infancy can defeat a demon emperor.
And once the demon is chosen, he has to make a vow to finally the royal family, so the general demon is also the ultimate secret power of the royal family.
But externally, not everyone in the demon clan knows what the existence of the holy woman means, only that with the holy woman, the demon can have the top strength and truly realize the glory of the demon race.
After explaining this, the national teacher continued: "It's a pity that it is extremely difficult for the saint to find a partner in her life, if she can't find a partner, if she doesn't have a partner, it will be extremely difficult to find the next saint, so the demon clan has not appeared for a thousand years. ”
Mei Niang didn't expect the demon clan to have such a secret, it seems that each clan has its own extraordinary heritage!
"Why am I a saint?" Mei Niang asked the question in her heart.
This time, the Demon Emperor replied: "Actually, the Demon Spring is the best way to identify the Holy Maiden. Only when he meets the saint will the demon emperor become a vast ocean, and rebuild the skin and bones for the saint. ”
Mei Niang suddenly realized, she was also wondering, if the Demon Spring can really have such a miracle after entering, I am afraid that the Demon Clan has long been above the Immortal Clan, why do you need to nest here and find a way to seize resources from the Human Race?
But now Mei Niang can show the most appropriate expression, nothing more than ...... Alarmed.
Mei Niang behaved like this: "But, am I not a spirit clan? Why did I suddenly become a saint of the demon clan? And I won't be a saint girl! And my two brothers, what did you do to help them?"
After all, Mei Niang is a girl who looks like she is only in her teens, so it is natural to have such a reaction.
The national teacher said patiently: "Little lady, don't panic, your performance just now was very good." In fact, it is not difficult to be a saint, in front of everyone, you just need to have a good shelf. We will take care of your two elder brothers, and if not, let them live in the palace as well. ”
Mei Niang was actually waiting for the last words of the national teacher, and when she heard this, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile on her face: "This is the best." I wonder if you might take me to meet my two brothers now?"
The national teacher and the emperor glanced at each other, if this girl is so simple, it will not be difficult to fiddle in the future.
In fact, they only said half of what they said, what they didn't say was that if it was the most tense and critical time for the demon clan, the blood of the holy woman, after entering the demon spring, the strength of all the people would at least double, which was also the real confidence of the demon clan.
It's just that the saints of the past realms don't know anything about it.
And it is true that although the demon clan has encountered some resource crises before, it has not reached the point where it needs to use the Holy Maiden.
The last saint was indeed because of insufficient cultivation, and her longevity was exhausted.
So such a secret is really only known to the national teachers and emperors in the past world.
In the eyes of outsiders, the emperor and the national teacher are opponents, representing two forces, only they really know, this is just their side, the purpose is to balance some forces in the country, so that they must not use other energy to do something against the demons.
In any case, what Mei Niang is showing now is something that makes them very relieved.
The national teacher and Yan Yuese arranged for people to invite Mei Niang's two elder brothers, and the emperor arranged a few days of opening banquets to celebrate that the demon clan has a saint again!
