Chapter 42: Once Upon a Time in the Demon Realm
Within a few days, King Xiangwan personally announced the bad news: this year's demon eradication mission was a big failure, and our army suffered heavy losses. The first and second brigades, except for Lin Shennian, the captain of the first brigade, the rest of the troops were all wiped out. In addition, Shun Fu, the captain of the Eleventh Brigade, and Mo Fuxuan, a special fighter of the Holy Immortals, colluded with the demons and slaughtered the entire Eleventh Brigade. When the two were about to flee the scene, they happened to be bumped into by Lin Shennian, who escaped from the clutches of the devil, and Lin Shennian escaped from Mo Fuxuan after killing Shunfu and returned with serious injuries. The rest of the teams completed their tasks relatively well, and the captain was awarded a third-level military merit, and the rest of the team members were each awarded a 100 gold bounty.
The news spread quickly, and the people of Xiangwanguo cursed Shunfu one after another, he died well, Lin Shennian was the savior of Xiangwanguo, if Lin Shennian hadn't killed Shunfu, the traitor, Xiangwanguo might have suffered even more.
Similarly, the news reached the union of the United Principality.
"Nonsense! How could Xiaofeng and Mo Fuxuan be the spies of the demon clan! It must be this ghost named Lin Shennian, master, can't be wrong, this Lin Shennian must be the spy of the demon clan!" Zhao Qinglan was furious after reading the message from the union union of the United Principality.
"Now even if we know that the demon clan spy is Lin Shennian, what can we do? Without evidence, can we just go to Xiangwan Kingdom and point at him and tell everyone that he is actually the demon clan's spy? And now that the Holy Immortal Academy is on the cusp, we must not act rashly, otherwise we will only fall into the mouth. Chen Jingwu frowned, he never expected that it was not the demons who were dangerous, but the terrifying human hearts.
Zhao Qinglan quit, the letter said that Zhang Fengfan had been killed by Lin Shennian!" Don't tell me that you believe Xiao Feng was really killed, no, I can't wait, I'm going to find him. ”
Chen Jingwu said angrily: "Stop! Isn't it chaotic enough?! Before leaving, I gave him the Gan Lin Talisman, and now Xiangwanguo hasn't found his body? At least now there is no conclusive evidence that Feng'er is dead." If he really does what happens to Feng'er, even if he is scolded by the world, I, Chen Jingwu, will let him Lin Shennian and his whole family bury Feng'er!"
After resting for a while, Chen Jingwu rubbed his temples and said, "I don't know Mo Fuxuan's whereabouts yet, so let's wait." ”
Zhao Qinglan had no choice but to give up.
Xiangwan Kingdom, near Xiangyang Village.
Mo Fuxuan and Bai He have been hiding in the cave for nearly a week, and after a few days, Mo Fuxuan has also calmed down. Bai He promised her to wait for the limelight to pass a little, and then they went to the bottom of the cliff to find Zhang Fengfan's body together.
Bai He neatly peeled and washed the rabbit, took it to the campfire and cooked it carefully. After a while, there was a burst of meat aroma, and Bai He handed the rabbit meat to Mo Fuxuan, "Princess, you can only see what you eat in the mountains, you have been eating wild vegetables for several days, and you can't avenge Zhang Fengfan if your body collapses." ”
Mo Fuxuan took the rabbit meat and said, "I've said it many times, I'm not a princess. Although I don't know why you want to follow the Terrans to get rid of the demons, but you are the demons, I am the Terrans, and you recognize the wrong person. ”
Bai He said again: "I won't admit my mistake." You should have a black flame-like birthmark on your back against your right shoulder, and your breath is all too familiar to me. Because it was the Demon Ancestor who sent me to send you out of the Demon Realm, the family that adopted you should be called Mo Rongqi, and the adoptive mother you never saw was the close maid of the Demon Queen back then, but unfortunately died in that war. Mo Yunqi has the identity of the guardian of the Divine Mansion, so it is undoubtedly the safest place to foster you with him. ”
Indeed, what Shirakawa said is true, and there are indeed birthmarks. Mo Fuxuan's thoughts began to waver a little, and she motioned for Bai He to continue.
"Since the existence of the Demon Clan, there have always been two Demon Ancestors. One is your father, Pei Shen Demon Ancestor, and the other is your aunt, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor. Thousands of years ago, the Demon Race was originally a small group of Earth Demon Mountain Forest Cultivation, and at that time, we were still a branch of the Human Race, relying on the primordial gods that devoured all kinds of animals to cultivate. However, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor gradually became dissatisfied with the status quo, feeling that the cultivation speed of the primordial gods who only devoured animals was too slow, and we could not gather heaven and earth spiritual energy to cultivate like the human race, so Pei Lan Demon Ancestor ignored your father's dissuasion, separated a part of the demon race and began to slaughter the surrounding human races. Sure enough, the primordial gods of the human race are much more powerful than those animals. The more Terran primordial gods are absorbed, the stronger Pei Lan's Demon Ancestor's cultivation will be, and Pei Lan's Demon Clan's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger, and she wants to occupy the entire human world. In just two years, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor had slaughtered half of the Terrans, and her cultivation had also reached the terrifying Demon Emperor Stage Tenth Order! ”
Bai He paused and continued: "Pei Lan Demon Ancestor's plan has failed after all. The Crane Wind Immortal in the high immortal realm sensed the turmoil in the human realm and led the upper immortals in the lower realm to kill Pei Lan Demon Ancestor. But at that time, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor was already very powerful, and he killed three immortals on the spot with the power of one person, and dozens of immortals were seriously injured. In the end, the Crane Wind Immortal relied on his powerful immortal power to break through a space from the human world and send the entire demon clan into that space. The self-destructive true body killed many demons with high cultivation, and suppressed the cultivation of Pei Lan's demon ancestor with his own primordial spirit, and smashed the soul of the demon clan's supreme treasure nine killing wind wheels. The surviving immortals worked together to seal the space exit, and this is why there is the current demon world. ”
Mo Fuxuan thought for a while and asked, "Then according to what you said, why are the demons starting to harm the world again?"
Shirakawa replied, "After the birth of the Demon Realm, your father became the leader of the entire Demon Race. Although Xiuwei was suppressed by the Crane Wind Immortal, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor still had a thief's heart, and the two Demon Emperors under him have been leading people to contend with your father in the Demon Realm. Your father advocated that there is a law in the Six Realms, and there is a way to cultivate it. Therefore, he did not approve of Pei Lan's Demon Ancestor's practice of slaughtering the human race to enhance his cultivation, and naturally, the demon world was divided into two clans, the Shen Clan and the Lan Clan. The two sides fought openly and secretly for thousands of years, until twenty years ago, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor faintly showed signs of breaking through the suppression of the Crane Wind Immortals, and your father ordered me to secretly send you out of the Demon Realm, and at that time you were just a demon spirit element. In less than two years after sending you away, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor's strength has recovered a lot, coupled with the backlash of the two Demon Emperors under your father, he easily captured your father, and now the entire Demon Realm has completely fallen into the hands of Pei Lan Demon Ancestor. ”
"Three years ago, the seal of the Demon Realm was suddenly broken for some reason, and some of our clansmen took the opportunity to escape, and the Lan people actually began to massacre in the human realm again. That's why I joined the army of the Terrans, and while getting rid of the Lan people, I was looking for you. I hope you can preside over the overall situation of the Shen people. ”
Mo Fuxuan was a little stunned when she heard this, and asked again, "What about Pei Shen Demon Ancestor, has he already been killed?"
Bai He explained: "No, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor can't completely break through the suppression of the Crane Wind Immortal, the only way is to get your father's origin power. If it is forcibly taken, your father will definitely choose to self-detonate the Demon Pill to destroy the power of the Origin, in that case, Pei Lan Demon Ancestor will never be able to break through the suppression of the Crane Wind Immortal. So I beg you to go back and lead our Shen people to rescue Pei Shen Demon Ancestor, if Pei Lan Demon Ancestor finds another way to break through the suppression of the Crane Wind Immortals, then it will be all over!
It was too shocking, Mo Fuxuan couldn't accept such a fact, she couldn't believe that she would be a descendant of the demon race, she didn't dare to accept this sudden heavy responsibility.
Ignoring Bai He, Mo Fuxuan wrapped her arms around herself, she felt as if she was now in a cold quagmire, and there was no light in sight of all around, and she was sinking deeper and deeper. I wanted to call for help but couldn't make a sound, I wanted to grab something and climb up, but all I had in my hand was a handful of dirty mud.
