102: Section 102

“Hmm...”

The Little Boy decisively ran into the house, retrieved a letter from under the slate brick beneath the bed, and handed it to Xiao Bai.

“Here, take it! Grandpa Tu Shan told you not to open it here.”

“See you later, I'm going to take my afternoon nap.”

Bang!

The wooden door of the room was slammed shut, and Xiao Bai could only leave helplessly.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Feng Yun glaring at him with a fierce look.

“Didn't you say your name was Bai Bing? What is your real name? If you dare to deceive this King again, I will strangle you right now.”

Xiao Bai laughed awkwardly, “Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, this name is real.”

“Xiao Bai, then this King wasn't wrong before.”

Just after leaving Tu Shan Village, Xiao Bai eagerly tore open the envelope. When he saw the contents, his eyes went blank, and he froze in place.

“What the hell is this? Playing mysterious tricks.”

The Queen domineeringly snatched the envelope. Looking at the single line of text written on it, she was also stunned.

“I expected you would come. I know you're anxious, but don't rush.”

Xiao Bai vigorously scratched his scalp, “What is this nonsense? The Old Guy is playing dirty tricks.”

Suddenly, Feng Yun grabbed Xiao Bai's neck, “Fine, you've made this King run around in circles again.”

“Your Majesty the Queen, this is truly a misunderstanding! I didn't know that Old Guy was so wicked that he would withdraw and run away.”

“Flirting and being affectionate—truly enviable to others.”

A Black-Clothed Person suddenly appeared above the forest ahead. Xiao Bai found the figure and voice somewhat familiar.

At this moment, the Queen was furious and wanted to rush up and blast the Black-Clothed Person to death with a palm strike.

A purple palm and a white palm instantly collided, unleashing massive energy that destroyed all the trees within a radius of several hundred meters.

The two sides exchanged several more palm strikes, but the Queen gained no advantage and retreated.

“Not bad, not bad! Xiao Bai, you always manage to surprise me. In just three months, you actually found an Level 8 Demon King to be your bodyguard.”

“You even unexpectedly gained a third demon emperor fragment.”

Xiao Bai suddenly understood, “Tian Kui, why are you here? Are you following me...”

“No, to be precise, we just met by chance.”

Tian Kui continued, “This is good too, it saves me the trouble of having to look for you in a few days.”

“Let's cooperate to open the Demon Emperors Tomb and divide the treasures inside.”

Two demon emperor fragments spun in Tian Kui's hand.

“You have three pieces, I have two pieces here. You don't need to work so hard to find the remaining four pieces; I can tell you where they are.”

“The Demon Race and the Ghost Race each have one piece, the Dragon Clan of the Black Sea has one piece, and the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon has one piece.”

“Holding three pieces, you can initiate a summoning, and I presume the Four Great Powers will respond.”

Xiao Bai remained silent, calculating in his heart whether it was worthwhile. With his current strength, initiating a summoning would only be courting death.

Seeing Xiao Bai didn't respond, Tian Kui sneered, “You have no choice in this matter. I could easily kill you and seize the three fragments in your hands.”

“Or there's a more amusing method: letting the Major Powers know that you possess three fragments. How will Your Excellency handle that?”

“In ten days, I will wait for you in the Black Sea. If you dare not come, then don't blame me for being impolite.”

“Let me remind you, the Snake-Human Queen has been hit by the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's Curse. The Old Guy of Tu Shan doesn't have the ability to resolve it. Only by entering the Tomb and finding the corresponding treasure can it be lifted.”

Swoosh!

A Black Shadow instantly vanished. Feng Yun wanted to chase after it to clarify things, but it gave her no chance.

She glanced at Xiao Bai and whispered, “Who was that Black-Clothed Person? Their strength is formidable, probably not beneath this King's.”

“Heavenly Demon Fox Clan, what exactly does she want to do? How should I handle this situation?”

Chapter 135: Instantly Killing the Nine-Headed Lion

The strongest fighter by Xiao Bai's side was the Snake-Human Queen, but when truly confronting Tian Kui, the usually proud Queen seemed lacking in confidence.

Tian Kui's words just now left Xiao Bai with no choice. If he dared not go to the Black Sea for the appointment, it would likely lead to huge trouble.

Tian Kui's strength was unfathomable, and the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan backing her was also extremely powerful. He had to quickly latch onto this influential figure.

Previously, when competing for the position of Consort in Misty Cloud City of Yu Country, Xiao Bai had gained benefits from Tian Kui.

“Sigh, forget it! No point thinking about useless things. What must come, must be faced.”

This place wasn't far from Pan Si Mountain. Xiao Bai wanted to go back and see his children and his First Wife.

As soon as Xiao Bai turned around, he saw Feng Yun following closely behind him.

“Your Majesty the Queen, I have something to attend to right now. Why don't you go back first? I'll call you when I gather all the demon emperor fragments and find the Tomb.”

Feng Yun shook her head, “No. In this King's eyes, you have no credibility left. Since I have already left the Snake-People Territory, this King must find a way to lift the Curse.”

“Alright then. Just don't be surprised by whatever you see later.”

Feng Yun maintained a cold expression and did not reply, which was typical of her style; she didn't want to say a single unnecessary word.

Seeing the Queen's attitude was so firm, Xiao Bai could only bite the bullet and let her follow. The Queen possessed the strength of an Level 8 Demon King, and she was volatile and unpredictable.

If she really got angry, it was possible she might slap Xiao Bai to death.

Having Three Wives and Four Concubines is normal in the Monster Realm. Xiao Bai didn't want to deliberately hide it. Perhaps the Queen had already noticed when he was with Ye Mei before, but just hadn't said anything.

Xiao Bai took out a pill. This was his initial research result, combining the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Techniques and Tu Shan Mingyi's Alchemy.

It looked dark and shiny, with a few curled hairs, slightly disgusting, but this did not affect its Medicinal Efficacy. It could last for two months and was quite stable, provided Xiao Bai didn't cancel it.

“Your Majesty the Queen, please take this, otherwise I can't take you to this place.”

Feng Yun opened her mouth, feeling like she couldn't fit it all in one bite.

She pointed at the pill, “Are you sure this is edible? What are those hairs on it?”

“No problem. Ye Mei only transformed into your appearance after taking this.”

“With the Queen's strength, are you still worried that I would poison you?”

Seeing Xiao Bai's slightly mischievous expression, Feng Yun threw the pill aside.

“This King can't swallow it. Let's just go, stop talking nonsense.”

Seeing the Queen so resistant, Xiao Bai no longer insisted. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Xiao Bai and the Queen were both Snake Demons, just different species. Pan Si Mountain had many of Xiao Bai's descendants, who must have inherited his genes, and the snake tail was an important marker.

“Fine, I won't force you. Just don't be surprised by anything you see over there.”

He used a piece of black cloth to cover Feng Yun's terrifying Golden Mask, then changed her into a slightly longer black robe, trying his best to conceal her purple snake tail.

Before completely entering the territory of Pan Si Mountain, they saw dozens of plumes of Black Smoke rising in the distance.

Xiao Bai accelerated his flying speed, his face full of anxiety, “This is bad. Something might have happened at Pan Si Mountain. Let's hurry over.”

The descendants, led by their eldest son Xiao Dong, were fighting against the invading Yao Race Coalition Army, led by a Nine-Headed Lion.

Among these siblings, Xiao Dong was the strongest, far ahead with the strength of an Level 8 Yao Beast, and his Cultivation speed was also extremely fast.

Whoosh!

A white light and a purple light flew in simultaneously. Xiao Dong immediately became alert and shouted loudly, “Everyone be careful, it might be the Nine-Headed Lion's reinforcements arriving.”

“Dong Zi, what's going on?”

Xiao Dong was overjoyed and shouted excitedly, “Father King! Younger brothers and sisters, our Father King has returned.”

Hundreds of Spider Snakes shouted together, their mighty Aura echoing throughout the mountain forest.

“Greetings, Father King.”

Xiao Bai looked around but couldn't find Iris's figure. He asked, “Where is your Mother Queen?”

“Mother Queen fought the Nine-Headed Lion to cover our retreat.”

Xiao Dong pointed toward a mountain peak in the north, where violent explosions were ringing out, and towering Flames were visible even from here.

“Mother Queen is right there.”

“You all find a safe place to hide first. I'm going to save your Mother Queen.”

Xiao Dong nodded firmly, “Father King, be careful. The Nine-Headed Lion's strength is terrifying; he has the power of a Level 5 Demon King.”

At this moment, two beams of light were rapidly heading toward the explosion site.

The Nine-Headed Lion hovered in the air, looking down at the Spider Queen lying on the ground. They had fought fiercely for over two hours, destroying all the surrounding trees and setting them ablaze.

“Damn it, a Level 2 Demon King Spider Demon is actually so formidable.”

“This King has never failed to seize a territory I set my eyes on. In the Monster Realm of the Xuan Tian Continent, there is only one Emperor, and that is I, the Nine-Headed Lion King.”

The intense roar shattered all the surrounding rocks. Iris stubbornly wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

“If you want to kill my children, step over my corpse first.”

“Alright, but you're just at the end of your rope. Let's see how long you can hold out.”

The Nine-Headed Lion vigorously flapped its wings, and its nine heads spewed Flames.

It extended its sharp claws and swooped down toward Iris, intending to tear her completely to shreds.

Two beams of light were rapidly approaching from not far away, and the purple light was noticeably faster.

Swish! Swish!

The purple light beam directly pierced the body of the Nine-Headed Lion, slicing off all nine of its heads.

By the time Xiao Bai arrived, the Nine-Headed Lion had been torn into pieces and scattered across the ground.

“Damn, that was fast! Didn't even give me a chance to show off.”
