Chapter 9 Discovering the Demon's Lair

The Black Demon Ridge is the battlefield between the ancient demons and gods in the human world. It is not only filled with countless undead souls and ghosts, but also contains some spells and treasures left behind by the demons and gods, attracting many monks to explore.

This is a gloomy place that is shrouded in darkness and evil spirits all year round. It is dark because the evil spirits here are so much that they cover the sky and the sun, making it look like there is no daytime.

After tens of thousands of years of truce and cleansing, the demonic energy inside was not purified, but instead bred more evil and monsters.

Because the light was too dim, Lin Qingqing looked around vigilantly, feeling that danger was lurking everywhere.

She had to sacrifice the magic beads and mobilize the spiritual energy to make it emit a faint light to illuminate the road ahead.

Suddenly, Lin Qingqing felt something in her heart, and decisively took back the magic beads, cut off the flow of spiritual energy, isolated her own breath, and walked for several miles in the dark according to her intuition.

She didn't encounter any monsters along the way, and just as she thought, not far ahead was the demon's lair.

Lin Qingqing recalled the real demon Feng Xiao that the demon and Senior Sister Qiao Wei had just mentioned, and wondered if this real demon was also here.

If he is there, you must be extremely alert and not reveal any sign of leaking anything; if he is not there, then it must be good news.

She was lurking 2 kilometers away from the demon's lair to investigate the situation.

In the Demon's Lair

"I have something to report, please confer the title of Lord Xiao." A demon leader came to pay his respects outside the tent.

"Speak." A cold voice came from inside the tent.

"Reporting to the True Lord, the third team that went out on patrol two hours ago has not returned and there is no news."

"Come here! Drag him to jail. He neglected his duty and it's too late for anything to happen."

"Master, please spare my life!" the demon leader shouted.

Master Feng Xiao immediately summoned all the demon teams to gather in front of the tent.

"Meet Master Feng Xiao!"

"Well." He suppressed his anger and said, "Tell me about the patrol an hour ago."

"Reporting to the True Lord, there is nothing unusual in the Black Demon Ridge, but..." The demon leader of the fourth team said hesitantly.

"Just what?" Master Feng Xiao rubbed his head which was swollen with anger.

"It's just that there are living people outside the Black Demon Ridge."

After hearing this, Master Fengmo could no longer bear it, and was so angry that he threw the inkstone on the table out of the tent, hitting the demon leader in the head, causing blood to spurt out and he died on the spot.

"Can anyone tell me why no demon soldier reported this? Are they pretending that I don't exist?"

The demon soldiers knelt down and begged for mercy: "Master, please spare us! Master, please spare us!"

A brave demon stepped forward and crawled on the ground: "True Lord, please listen to what I have to say! It turned out that the leader of the third team discovered that there was an abnormal aura outside the Black Demon Ridge, and deliberately concealed the matter and threatened me not to say anything. Then he sent 4 demons to check it out, but later felt that something was wrong, so the leader took the remaining 7 demons out and has not returned yet. It is unknown whether they are alive or dead. I have reported all of this, but I don’t know why True Lord is still in the dark.”

"Are you mocking my incompetence?" Master Feng Xiao pondered for a moment before speaking slowly.

"I dare not." The demon didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that the True Lord would snap his fingers and make him follow in the footsteps of his leader.

"Send three teams to search for me." Master Feng Xiao said coldly again.

"Yes."

The demon minions dispersed, each doing their own job. For a moment, the demon's lair fell into an unprecedented tense atmosphere.

Lin Qingqing, who was exploring outside, suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the demon's lair.

She saw an endless stream of demon minions coming out of the lair, and it seemed that they were going to conduct a thorough search of the Black Demon Ridge.

"Oops!" Lin Qingqing thought to herself, "The demons have a natural advantage of walking in the dark. There is no difference between day and night for them. This place is not far from the nest. If I stay here and get discovered, the possibility of escaping successfully is very small. If I evacuate now, I can still leave without anyone noticing. Do you want to try your luck?"

On this side, Lin Qingqing was caught in a life-and-death decision, while on the other side, Mo Qinyu was in deep self-blame.

"Qingqing..."

When Qin Yu woke up, he was faced with Qing Li's guilty face.

"Great! Senior Brother Qinyu, you finally woke up."

When Qingli saw that Senior Brother Qinyu suddenly fainted, she thought that he had failed in his attempt to break through the demonic energy. She checked his injuries with trembling hands, only to find that he was no longer seriously injured. He just had very little spiritual energy left and fell asleep due to exhaustion. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he thought of Junior Sister Qingqing who was still in dire straits, Qingli's expression became heavy again.

Seeing his senior brother waking up slowly, Qingli told him the whole story with a nervous mood.

"Qingli, what did you say?" Qin Yu was incredulous after hearing what Junior Sister Qingli said, "How could you..."

The first words that popped into his mind were accusations, but he didn't say them out loud in the end, because he had no right to accuse Qingli who was devoted to him.

"I'll go back and find her." Qin Yu sat up with difficulty and planned to get out of bed. He couldn't forgive himself for abandoning Junior Sister Qingqing, and he was determined to find her back, either alive or dead.

Qingli stopped Senior Brother Qinyu and said resolutely: "We can't let Junior Sister Qingqing sacrifice in vain. She made the choice to buy us time to escape. Going back now is putting the cart before the horse. I have already written to the sect to report the intelligence here. Soon, the sect will send elders to help us encircle and suppress the demons. Although Senior Brother's injuries have healed, his body has not yet fully recovered and his spiritual energy is insufficient. Don't be impulsive!"

Qin Yu lay back on the bed like a deflated ball. After a moment, he said firmly, "If the elders don't come tomorrow, I will go to Black Demon Ridge alone."

"Okay." Qingli knew that her own strength was not as good as Senior Brother Qinyu's. If he really wanted to go back to find Junior Sister Qingqing, she knew she couldn't stop him.
