……

Gorefiend Ridge.

Blood Demon Ridge is located in the angle between Xian No. [-] Defense Area and Demon No. [-] Defense Area. The location is remote, the land is barren, and the only few minerals are of low value. place.

This Blood Demon Ridge is the territory of the Blood Demon King.

In the depths of the Blood Demon Ridge, there is a Demon King Castle named [Scarlet Demon King Castle].

Here is the core of the Scarlet Demon King's territory, as well as the core of its power.

However, due to the poverty of the Blood Demon Ridge, the Blood Demon Castle has not been properly repaired and maintained for many years. The towering castle walls are covered with mottled marks, and one can tell that it has been weather-beaten .

Under the illumination of the blood moon, the dark red bricks and stones seemed to be covered with a layer of blood, which looked extremely vicissitudes.

however.

On this day, the Demon King's Castle located in a remote place welcomed a distinguished guest.

In the early morning, before the morning mist in the mountains had completely dissipated, a team of nearly a thousand demons marched through the blood-colored sky and arrived outside the blood-colored demon king's castle.

In the middle of the team, a huge black and golden wooden chariot pulled by seven large flying dragon monsters stands out.

The shape of the chariot is like a moving palace. The surface is carved with exquisite patterns like reliefs. The windows, pillars, and eyes of the reliefs are also inlaid with various gemstones. It looks extremely gorgeous and extravagant.

Even the flying dragon beast pulling the cart is covered with metal armor, and the armor is even inlaid with bright gems in a conspicuous place.

In the Flying Palace, there are demon servants of different races wearing uniform costumes standing everywhere, and there are banners flying around the corners that symbolize the identity of the master of the demon chariot.

Outside the flying palace.

There is also a team of nearly a thousand air cavalry guarding the flying palace. Each of this air cavalry team is of extraordinary strength, riding a small flying dragon with full armor on its crotch.

From a distance, the Demon Race Air Cavalry team is strictly disciplined and orderly, with a demonic aura permeating its body. Judging by its power, the combat effectiveness of this Demon Race Air Cavalry team will definitely not be low.

Under the protection and background of this demonic air cavalry, the flying palace is even more powerful, showing a bit of majesty like an emperor on tour.

Where have the guards of the Scarlet Devil Castle seen such a battle?
Seeing this team parked majestically in the open space outside the Demon King's Castle, the demon general in charge of guarding the gate was stunned, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Go and inform your demon king that the young master Mingsha is coming. Let him greet you quickly."

At this time, a demon general riding a large flying dragon galloped out of the stopped demon army, stopped in front of the goalkeeper, and ordered in a cold voice.

Ming, the young master of Ming Sha? !
The demon general was taken aback, and hurriedly responded tremblingly, and then couldn't care about anything else, turned around and rushed towards the castle in a hurry.

However, before it rushed into the castle, a rough and low voice came from the sky: "Young master, you are here."

While speaking, a blood-colored figure descended from the sky and landed in front of the team.

It was a burly demon king, roughly humanoid in appearance, but covered with a layer of blood-colored hard scales, and even the demon wings on the back were bright red in color, exuding a strong bloody smell all over his body, looking extremely hideous .

Obviously, this bloody figure is the owner of this Scarlet Demon Castle, the Scarlet Demon King.

"Owner?!"

The demon general froze for a moment, and immediately prostrated himself on the ground tremblingly, saluting respectfully.

The Scarlet Demon King ignored it, strode past it, and bowed deeply towards the gigantic palace of the demon chariot, with an extremely respectful attitude.

"The young master has been exhausted all the way, it's been hard work. The subordinates have already prepared the banquet..."

"There is no need for a banquet."

An arrogant male voice came from inside the demon chariot, interrupting the Scarlet Demon King's words.

Following the sound, the curtain of the demon chariot was pulled aside by two demon maids, and a figure slowly walked out.

It was a demon race that looked very similar to a human male.

It has a slender figure, silver hair and golden eyes, and a handsome appearance. At first glance, it is almost the same as a human being. In terms of appearance alone, it is even better than most human beings. It seems that many human beings still have aristocratic temperament.

Only the pair of demonic horns on top of his head, the retracted demonic wings behind his back, and the pure and vast aura of the evil spirit all showed his status as a high-level demon.

Obviously, this demon clan is the Young Master Ming Sha that the Scarlet Demon King speaks of.

It looked down at the Scarlet Demon King, and said lightly: "You must know why this young master came here, so stop talking nonsense."

"This is."

The Scarlet Demon King was a little surprised, but considering that he now has a request from the young master Mingsha, he finally agreed.

At this moment, the heavy stone gate of the Demon King's Castle has already been opened.Under the call of the Scarlet Demon King, the demon chariot slowly entered the castle, heading for the depths of the Demon King's Castle.

Although the Demon King's Castle is named after "Fort", it is actually more like a city, with a vast interior area, inhabited by a large number of demons of all levels. Even those demon lords with their own territories still live in the city most of the time. In the Demon King's Castle.

The inner castle where the Scarlet Demon King lives is located in the deepest part of the Scarlet Demon King's castle.

Soon, a group of demons arrived at the inner castle in a mighty way, and then, led by the Scarlet Demon King, passed through most of the inner castle and came to a cellar deep in the inner castle.

In the pool in the center of the cellar, a budding lotus with dark purple lotus leaves was quietly growing, exuding pure and incomparable ghostly devilish energy.

Even though the lotus flower has not yet bloomed, it has faintly exuded some extraordinary aura, and when it really blooms, it must be even more extraordinary.

"Young master, this is the [Nether Purple Golden Lotus] that I got." The Scarlet Demon King introduced the situation to Young Master Ming Sha with some complacency.

It found this Nether Purple Golden Lotus in a remote magic spring, and it was already budding when it was discovered, and there was not much time before it matured and bloomed.

For this Nether Purple Golden Lotus, the Scarlet Demon King specially set aside a space deep underground in his Demon King's Fort to cultivate it.

This cellar has been extensively remodeled, and a huge pool was excavated in the center, and the Nether Purple Golden Lotus was transplanted into the pool.

In order to prevent the Nether Purple Golden Lotus from adapting to the environment here, the Scarlet Demon King also ordered someone to get a blood-colored bead and hang it above the underground space to simulate the light of a blood moon.

Even the water in the pool is specially drawn from the magic spring where it was discovered. The color of the spring water is pitch black, and the water is lingering with magic energy. It is very pure at first glance.

Every day, there will be demons who specially fetch fresh water from the magic spring to replace part of the water in the pool, so as to keep the spring water in the pool active.

Worrying about the escape of magic energy, the Nether Purple Golden Lotus would stop growing without the supply of magic energy. It even inlaid a full five magic beads on the edge of the pool to continuously supply the pool with supplementary magic energy.

It also set up a guard post outside the cellar, and sent three teams of demons to watch the Nether Purple Golden Lotus in [-]-hour shifts.

On the outside of this cellar, various methods and formations were arranged, guarded layer by layer, and the defense was extremely tight, for fear of any mistakes.

For this Nether Purple Golden Lotus, the Scarlet Demon King has put in all his efforts.

Still, it's all worth it.

"This pure ghostly aura... really looks like the legendary ghostly purple golden lotus." The young master Mingsha stared at the lotus, with greed and longing in his eyes.

This [Nether Purple Golden Lotus] is a rare treasure in the demon world. The most important thing is that it fits very well with your own blood and physique. After it is fully opened, as long as you can digest its medicinal power, you can greatly optimize your own demon body. Refining one's own bloodline, making the bloodline closer to the bloodline of the ancient demon god.

This can greatly strengthen its foundation and make its future have unlimited potential.

It can even be said that with the assistance of this [Nether Purple Golden Lotus], its future strength will inevitably surpass that of the contemporary Hell Demon God, and even in the distant future, there is still the possibility of spying on the position of the Demon Lord.

"Young master, this treasure is not far from the maturity date, please be patient for a while." The Scarlet Demon King said with a slight smile, "Recently, I have been wronged to live in this remote village of mine. I have arranged various witches and banquets for you."

"Okay, very good." The young master Mingsha showed a friendly expression, "Master Bloody is really understanding. You found the Nether Purple Golden Lotus for me, which is a great achievement. Your request to replace the Demon King's Castle, I will definitely report to the ancestor gods and keep you fulfilled. Moreover, you will be my confidant from now on, and this young master will not treat you badly in the future."

"Thank you, young master." The Scarlet Demon King was overjoyed, thanking him repeatedly, but couldn't help cursing inwardly.

If it weren't for the Nether Purple Golden Lotus to have no effect on its lineage of demons, would it be willing to use it to curry favor with the young master Mingsha in exchange for territory?

This dilapidated place is poor and barren. Every time there is a war between the demons and the human race nearby, it will send troops to support it. How can it develop over time?
However, when he cursed secretly in his heart, he didn't show any abnormality on his face, instead he still showed a respectful and very submissive look.

"Young master, come with me."

The Scarlet Demon King led the young master Mingsha out of the cellar, and then took the young master Mingsha to experience the projects that had been arranged a long time ago, and went away to his heart's content.

And in the cellar, it was calm again.

Only the protective formation and steel walls at the bottom of the cellar are still guarding this precious Nether Purple Golden Lotus.

Time passed little by little.

"Chirping~~twittering~~"

Suddenly, there was an inaudible mouse cry.

Immediately afterwards, in the depths of the cellar, a big fat mouse quietly pushed open a rock and poked its head out.

It sniffed the wings of its nose, and when it sensed that there was no one around, let alone a demon, it got out of the hole, waved its paws and chirped, beckoning the people behind to follow.

Then, two delicate and cute girls in well-dressed clothes and a slightly smaller escaping female mouse emerged from the cave.

Obviously, these two well-dressed girls are Wang Lici and Lan Wan'er.As for the escaping female mouse, it is naturally the No. 395 wife of the big mouse.

The defense inside this cellar is indeed very strict, but how can it be difficult to stop a group of all-powerful habitual criminals?

With the cooperation of the big mouse and Wang Lici, they successfully broke through the line of defense and entered the hinterland of the cellar with a little effort.

"This is..." Wang Lici sniffed the [Nether Purple Golden Lotus], immediately showed a very interested expression, swallowed her saliva and said, "Although I don't know what it is, it looks delicious."

Even if this [Nether Purple Golden Lotus] is not the top innate variety, but a counterfeit of the Nether Golden Lotus in disguise, it is still an extremely rare natural treasure, not inferior to the previous one.

In Wang Lici's blood sense, there is still an existence that can make her salivate.

"Sister Lici is amazing, she can eat anything." Lan Wan'er had an expression of envy and admiration on her face.

She is also talented in devouring blood, relying on the characteristics of blood, her blood aptitude has also increased a lot over the years, but compared with Wang Lici's characteristic of devouring everything, it is still far behind.

This weird-looking budding lotus has a very dark and secluded smell, and its energy is extremely pure and domineering, so she dare not eat too much.At most, when Li Ci eats the big head, she rubs two lotus petals to taste.

"Zhi chirp~" The escaping mother mouse rubbed against the big mouse flatteringly, as if to say: I didn't lie to you, did I?Now I have made a meritorious service, right?

"Chirp chirp!"

The big mouse responded with a few words proudly, which immediately made the escaping mother mouse very happy, and started to circle around the big mouse.

"Sister Lici." Lan Wan'er asked curiously, "What did the big mouse promise the mother mouse?"

"It seems to promise it to spend more time with it and give birth to a few more litters of mice." Wang Lici said in confusion.

"It really is a scumbag." Lan Wan'er couldn't help casting a deep disdain at the big mouse.

"I feel that this thing is not yet fully mature. If you wait and pick it when it is fully conceived, the effect will definitely be better after eating it." Wang Lici resisted the urge to swallow the lotus in one mouthful, the instinct of food At this moment, it is vividly highlighted, "I have a strong feeling that it will not be long before it will bloom and mature."

"Then, just wait a little longer?" Lan Wan'er suggested, "I heard that some elixirs have the best effect when they are picked at the moment of maturity. It would be a pity to eat it at the right time and waste a lot of medicinal power."

"Scum rat." Wang Lici waved at the big rat.

It immediately leaned over.

Wang Lici gave it careful instructions.The big mouse understood immediately, and then called the mother mouse over spiritually, and chirped again.

Then, the mother mouse also began to get into the burrow very spiritually, and told the children and grandchildren to start monitoring the cellar, and report any troubles at any time.

Wang Lici and the others had already completely regarded this [Ghost Purple Golden Lotus] as something in their pockets. After laying a net of heaven and earth, the two of them swaggered into the hole and walked away.

During the period of waiting for the Nether Purple Golden Lotus to bloom, you will be active underground in the Scarlet Demon King's Fort, and be the underground king for a period of time.

As for the food! ?
Hehe~ The huge Scarlet Demon King Castle can't "afford" Wang Lici and the others?

Wang Lici and Lan Wan'er didn't have the slightest psychological burden of stealing food from the demons outside the territory. Instead, they felt a sense of accomplishment in indirectly suppressing the enemy.

In comparison, it was the taste of the food that really made them uncomfortable who were used to delicacies from mountains and seas.

……

at the same time.

A merchant team consisting of hundreds of large Koduo camels is also migrating from other devil castles to the bloody devil castle.

The Koduo camel beast is a unique large-scale monster in the extraterrestrial demon world.It has a large body, a milder temperament, and is easy to feed. It has been domesticated into a tool beast by the demons outside the territory long ago.

The largest kodo camel can weigh two to three hundred tons, which is slightly heavier than the largest dinosaur on earth.Its appearance is somewhat like a combination of an elephant and a camel, and its thick body and limbs can easily carry goods weighing dozens of tons.

The most rare thing is that their speed is not slow, and they go over mountains and mountains like walking on flat ground.

It is also for this reason that the supply and transportation of many bulk goods of the demons outside the territory are undertaken by the Curdo camel beast.

Of course, the Mozu also has some high-end flying monster vehicles, airships and other means of transportation and transportation.But those are all big players who burn magic crystals, and the cargo capacity may not be high. Considering the transportation efficiency and cost expenditure of large quantities of cargo, there is no doubt that the Curdo Camel is the best choice with the highest cost performance.

In fact, after the fierce battle with the human race that year, the mainland of the demon race outside the territory also suffered a huge impact, and the civilization of the demon race also suffered a fault. Today's demon race is no longer the high-end race that could suppress the Shenwu Dynasty. .

To a certain extent, the final desperate fight of the Divine Martial Saint Emperor had an even greater impact on the demons outside the territory than on the human race.

Unfortunately, that period of history is too long, so long that most of it has been lost in the long time.Few of today's demons remember that period of history, and remember the glory of the demons.

The back of the Koduo camel is very broad, and it is quite stable when moving forward. Therefore, demon traders like to build semi-fixed tents on the back of the Koduo camel as a temporary residence.In this way, the long journey will become more comfortable.

According to the difference in financial resources and status, the specifications and gorgeousness of the tents on the backs of Curduo camels are also very different.

now.

On the back of one of the Koduo camels, two demons were sitting and talking in a luxuriously decorated tent.

One of the demons is a demon woman wearing a veil.

It has silver hair flowing like a waterfall, and the exposed half of its face has delicate and fair skin, and its appearance is exquisite, its eyes are cold and charming like a snake, and under the flowing skirt, there is a snake tail swaying back and forth, which looks abnormal Evil spirit.

The crimson veil hangs down from the top of the tent, swaying slightly as the Koduo camel advances, hazy, bringing out a blush of reverie, and also makes its figure extremely charming and attractive.

This witch is none other than Suraya, the "dancing girl" who has become famous in the Demon Realm in recent decades.

It is said that she has the lineage of the ancient noble blood of the demon clan, the blood of the yin and charming snake. Although she is not particularly top-notch and pure, she also has the potential of a demon king.

If one traces back from the source of her bloodline, she and one of the Eight Great Demon Gods of the contemporary era, [Yincha Demon God], can be regarded as belonging to the same bloodline and are close relatives.

That's why, aside from the two points of body shape and temperament, the two witches still look a little alike, especially the white and delicate skin like milk, and the vertical pupils like snake pupils, which are a bit broken resemblance.

Because of the existence of the demon god Yincha, most of the demons with the bloodline of Yinchamei Snake in the outer demon world have gathered under the command of the Yincha Demon Temple, forming a force.

However, the bloodline of the Yinchamei Snake lineage is very old, and there are many branches. There are still some demons with the bloodline of Yin Cha Mei Snake, but the number is relatively rare, and the divisions are relatively scattered.

"Dancing Girl" Suraya is such an existence.

According to rumors, she is the blood of a fallen demon king, Hou Yi. With her unique racial talent, noble blood, identity as a descendant of the demon king, and her unique and creative dancing posture, her reputation has already grown in just a few decades after her debut. It has spread to dozens of spheres of influence of the Demon King Castle.

Today, she is touring everywhere, often receiving warm hospitality from local lords and devil kings, and earning a lot of money.

This time, her team was invited by [Tianmo Pavilion] to perform at the [Tianmo Pavilion] branch of Scarlet Demon King Fortress, and embarked on the trip with the caravan.

Sitting opposite her was an old demon servant.

The old servant was hunched, his eyes were cloudy, and even the scales on his body had begun to fade. Just by looking at his appearance, he could tell he was definitely old.

On the surface, it is a loyal servant handed down by Suraya's ancestors, possessing the strength of a demon lord.

But at this time, the old servant of the demon race was sitting majesticly opposite to Suraya, and warned "Suraya" condescendingly in the language of the human race: "Suya demon envoy, the master spent hundreds of years on this plan. , put in a lot of energy, paid a lot of money, only allowed to succeed, not to fail. And you are a very critical part of the plan, if you make any mistakes, you should know what will happen."

It turned out that this witch was actually disguised by the Suya Demon Envoy.

Demon Envoy Suya is an elder of the Yincha lineage of the Scarlet Moon Demon Dynasty's True Demon Palace. At the same time, she is also the junior sister of the Yin Snake Demon Ji Yueer, and she and Ji Yueer worshiped under the same Demon Ji's sect to practice.

It's just that when she was competing for the right to belong to the Girl's Yin Demon Collection, she lost to the Yin Snake Moji, so that even though she has the aptitude of the second class of the Great Tianjiao, she is still at the Supernatural Realm, and most of her life has passed. No hope of stepping into Lingxu Realm.

"Don't worry, my lord." The demon envoy Suya who turned into "Suraya" leaned slightly, and said with a bit of flattery, "I have practiced this matter many times, and I have the treasures that Master Mozun personally bestowed. It will surely succeed.”

After a pause, she said with some hesitation: "It's just that I have made such a great contribution, and Lord Mozun promised me..."

"You can rest assured about this." The old servant said solemnly, "When did you ever see that the Lord's words don't count? After the matter is done, the Lord will personally capture the Yin Snake Demon Girl and deprive her of the [Girl Yin Demon Girl] Treasure Book]."

"Although this girl's Yin Demon Collection has not accumulated enough essence of heaven and earth, it cannot promote your bloodline. But as long as you complete the task beautifully, the Lord promises to pay a high price to help you enter the peerless world, so that you can truly have the ability to step into Lingxu qualifications."

"Even Ji Yue'er's Demon King's Palace, he can be the master and reward you. At that time, you will be the orthodox of the young girl Yin Demon."

"Thank you, Lord Mozun, for fulfilling the task!" Demon Envoy Su Ya heard the words, his eyes suddenly showed a look of madness, and he was instantly full of fighting spirit. "This subordinate will definitely do everything he can to complete the task, as he wishes."
