Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"Monster?" Jin Xuan and Yu Xiaobai shouted in unison.

"Yes, it's a monster!" Helan Ruofeng added.

"Then what should we do?" Yu Xiaobai asked.

She had just captured a crocodile, but this one seemed quite powerful, like a crocodile spirit. She didn't dare to attack it. If Helan Ruofeng and Jin Xuan hadn't been with her, she would have run away.

"You guys retreat to the back and hide in a safe place. I'll deal with it." Helan Ruofeng said calmly.

"Just you? A greenhorn human boy wants to deal with me?" The monster snorted with disdain.

He had been cultivating here for a thousand years and had long considered this place his own. Apart from him and his descendants, no other demons or living creatures dared to set foot on this isolated island. Unexpectedly, three humans came.

"That's right, just me!" Helan Ruofeng said as he leaped forward. His figure was agile and strong, and the peach wood sword in his hand stabbed sharply at the crocodile monster.

The crocodile demon fearlessly faced Helan Ruofeng's attack, and the two of them started fighting in the blink of an eye. The two sides fought back and forth and it was difficult to determine who was the winner.

Helan Ruofeng gradually gained the upper hand. His sword skills were agile and varied, catching the crocodile demon off guard.

Yu Xiaobai and Jin Xuan were hiding in the bushes on the side, clenching their fists nervously, as if they were the ones fighting with the crocodile monster at the moment.

Ling Yuwei hid in the corner and watched this scene nervously, wondering if she released the snake demon given to her by her senior sister to deal with Zi Yan at this time, would it hurt Jin Xuan.

If things went as they did before, Zi Yan would never be alone, and she would have no chance to take action.

At this moment, Helan Ruofeng seized the opportunity and stabbed the crocodile monster in the abdomen with a sword. The crocodile monster screamed and swung a palm fiercely, hitting Helan Ruofeng.

Helan Ruofeng was hit and fell directly to the shore. He had no time to feel the pain and immediately stood up to face the crocodile demon's attack again.

"Helan Ruofeng, use the teleportation talisman quickly, we can't beat him..." Yu Xiaobai stood up and shouted.

Hearing Yu Xiaobai's cry, Helan Ruofeng did not use the teleportation talisman to escape. He gritted his teeth and fought a desperate battle with the crocodile demon with all his strength.

It's not that he didn't want to use the teleportation talisman, but his master said that in the secret realm under Danxia Peak, there was a crocodile dragon monster that had been practicing for a thousand years. The secret realm was full of spiritual energy and had not been contaminated by the filthy air of the secular world, so the inner elixir of the crocodile dragon was also very pure. If a cultivator obtained it, he could increase his spiritual power by a thousand years, and ordinary people could gain immortality by eating it.

The master had warned him several times, telling him to get it.

This secret realm can only be opened every three years when Yunji Mountain Villa selects new disciples. That's why he came here from afar. This opportunity is hard to come by, so how could he leave at will?

However, the crocodile demon was too powerful, and Helan Ruofeng gradually felt overwhelmed.

After some struggle, Ling Yuwei decided to release the red snake demon. She carefully approached Yu Xiaobai who was hiding in the grass.

At this time, Yu Xiaobai and Jin Xuan focused all their energy on the battle between Helan Ruofeng and the crocodile demon, and did not realize that the god of death was approaching them.

Ling Yuwei took out the Qiankun bag, which had a restriction specially set by Sa Yulong. However, she had lied to Ling Yuwei. Once the red-bellied snake demon was released, she would not be able to seal it again by herself.

You know, this red-banded snake demon was the ancestor who founded Yunji Villa thousands of years ago. It took the joint efforts of the five major sects to seal it in the Demon Locking Tower of Yunji Villa.

This time, in order to take revenge on Zi Yan, Sa Yulong stole Sa Hurricane's Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, entered the Demon Locking Tower, knocked out the Red Snake Demon, and brought it out in the Qiankun Bag.

Ling Yuwei didn't even know that once the red-bellied snake demon woke up, a small Qiankun bag and a forbidden talisman would not be able to trap it.

She had just taken out the Qiankun bag when, as if sensing the turmoil in the outside world, the red snake demon inside began to twist its body frantically, eager to get out.

Ling Yuwei didn't care about anything else. She just threw the Qiankun bag towards Yu Xiaobai and turned around and ran away.

"What is that?" Yu Xiaobai reached out and caught the bag that Ling Yuwei threw out.

"Qiankun bag?" Jin Xuan also saw what she was holding.

"Ah! Why is it moving? Could it be that one of my fellow disciples has a crush on me and is afraid that I won't make it, so he caught a big monster and sent it to me?" Yu Xiaobai guessed narcissistically.

"Are you sure someone doesn't dislike you and sent a big monster to take revenge on you?" Jin Xuan analyzed.

"Why is it still hot? Ah..." Yu Xiaobai didn't have time to think about it and threw the bag out without thinking.

At this moment, there was a dull sound, and the bag hit the crocodile demon who was fighting fiercely with Helan Ruofeng. The crocodile demon was caught off guard by this sudden attack, and his body swayed and almost fell to the ground. The bag was also cut by its sharp claws, and the contents inside burst out instantly.

Everyone looked closely and saw a giant python with a red body and black rings coming out of the bag. The python was huge, with a head as big as a water tank. Its body was so long that it circled several times in this not-so-small cave. Its blood-red eyes flashed with a frightening light, and its mouth spewed out scarlet tongues, which made people shudder.

"Oh my god..." Yu Xiaobai was so scared that he burst into tears on the spot.

Jin Xuan was also trembling with fear, but as a man he still pretended to be brave and took Yu Xiaobai into his arms, gently patting her back.

Helan Ruofeng was also disrupted by this sudden situation.

According to legend, the Red Snake Demon is ferocious by nature, so it has been almost unheard of for thousands of years that it has escaped the calamity. Why would such a snake suddenly appear here, and judging from its size, it must be thousands of years old.

Helan Ruofeng didn't think he had the ability to deal with it, but what should he do now in this situation?

The crocodile demon originally wanted to end the battle quickly and swallow the three immortal cultivators who broke into his territory into his stomach as soon as possible to increase his cultivation. After all, their pure bodies were a great tonic for him!

However, what he never expected was that a red snake demon suddenly appeared, and it was his natural enemy. That was really bad luck!

Seeing that the other party's cultivation was far superior to his own, when would he escape if not now? So, he changed his mind and quickly dived into the water, ready to take the opportunity to slip away.

After spinning around in the cave for several times, the red snake demon finally transformed into a human form. He looked ferocious, with angry eyes and eyebrows, just like a demon in his forties or fifties.

"Want to leave? Humph, I've been sealed for ten thousand years and have long forgotten the taste of food. Now that I've finally woken up, there's a thousand-year-old crocodile spirit delivered to my doorstep to fill my stomach, and you four little human cuties as snacks. It's simply wonderful, wonderful..." The red-banded snake demon said proudly, with a hideous smile on his face.

Then, he glanced around the cave with a smile, and then waved his hand, and an unbreakable barrier instantly covered the entire cave.

After completing this series of actions, he transformed into his true form and slid into the water fluently. Immediately, water splashed everywhere, and a giant python and a huge crocodile were seen biting each other madly.

"Oh no, we're probably going to die here today." Helan Ruofeng retreated to Jin Xuan's side, with the trembling Yu Xiaobai nestled in his arms.

"Don't we have a teleportation talisman? Why don't we try it?" Yu Xiaobai reminded with a stutter. Her legs were trembling now. She had never been so frightened before. She couldn't stand on her own at all.

"Yes, Brother Helan, we still have teleportation talismans." Jin Xuan said as he reached out and took out four pieces of talisman paper.

"Brother Jin Xuan, you have to think carefully. We haven't caught any monsters. If you use the teleportation talisman, you may not get first place. Are you really willing to give up?" Helan Ruofeng asked cautiously.

"I definitely don't want to, but if you two have to die here with me, I would rather go back and be the emperor." Jin Xuan said decisively.

Yes, he really hated being an emperor, but he had regarded Yu Xiaobai and Helan Ruofeng as his only friends after leaving the palace, so how could he watch them die like that?

"Okay, then I will send you two out of other areas first, and I will come to find you later." Helan Ruofeng said decisively.

The crocodile demon's inner elixir is certainly important, but compared to the two people he met just after he entered the world of martial arts, it is not necessary to get it. He feels that his master will definitely not blame him for this choice.

Jin Xuan and Yu Xiaobai both gave their teleportation talismans to Helan Ruofeng.

Helan Ruofeng seemed to have made an important decision and cast a spell to help the two of them leave.

However, the barrier set up by the snake demon was too powerful. After using the first teleportation talisman, Jin Xuan and Yu Xiaobai were bounced back by the barrier. He refused to admit defeat and tried twice more but the same thing happened again.

"Brother Jin Xuan, Miss Zi Yan, I originally wanted to use three ordinary teleportation talismans to get you two to leave this place and continue to challenge other areas, but it seems that this method is not working."

Helan Ruofeng said with regret, but in the end he still reluctantly took out the teleportation talisman that could teleport them out of the secret realm.

Jin Xuan felt upset, and so did Yu Xiaobai. At this moment, Zi Yan was sitting in the corner of her body crying. If the three of them were teleported away without catching any monsters, they would definitely have no chance.

Outside the barrier, Ling Yuwei paced back and forth with lingering fear. Could the snake demon really be taken back? If she hadn't had foresight and ran fast, she would have been trapped inside at this moment.

Never mind, she should find her team members to catch the monster first. After making the decision, she wanted to leave the island as quickly as possible.

When the last of the legendary powerful teleportation talisman was used up, Jin Xuan, Yu Xiaobai, and Helan Ruofeng were still trapped in the cave motionlessly.

At this time, none of the three wanted to talk, and they just sat quietly in the grass.

In the water, the red snake demon and the crocodile demon had fought for hundreds of rounds. Unexpectedly, the crocodile demon was also very strong in combat. If it hadn't been for the sudden appearance of the red snake demon, Helan Ruofeng might have been eaten by him.

"Am I going to die in this snake's belly today?" Jin Xuan didn't care about anything else and just lay down as if waiting to die.

He was filled with despair and unwillingness. He thought he could escape from the palace and become a free and easy cultivator, but now he was trapped in such a desperate situation. Thinking of his mother still waiting for him in the palace and Xiao Yuanzi still waiting for him outside, he couldn't help but feel sad.

"I didn't get the crocodile's inner elixir, and I didn't enter Yunji Villa as I wished." Helan Ruofeng looked regretful.

He originally hoped to obtain the crocodile's inner elixir to fulfill his master's request, but with the appearance of the red snake demon, everything came to nothing. He felt extremely regretful and lost, and felt that all his efforts were in vain.

Yu Xiaobai didn't know whether to express her sadness or quietly wait for death. She had always been a strong and brave child. She didn't feel so bad when she turned into a dog for no reason. Now facing such a predicament, she felt helpless. But she was unwilling to give up. She hoped that a miracle would happen so that they could escape.

The three of them had completely given up struggling. They lay there quietly, waiting for their fate to come.

"……" A miserable scream was heard, and the red snake demon was seen madly sucking the soul of the crocodile spirit. The crocodile spirit was twisting its body wildly and screaming in pain.

"Wow, wow, wow..." Yu Xiaobai hurriedly sat up and burst into tears.

"I won't let anything happen to you, Sermon, go out..." Helan Ruofeng said as he stood up again and summoned a real sword to attack the red snake monster.

"You are a human who doesn't know how to live or die." The red snake demon easily clamped Helan Ruofeng's neck with one hand.

Helan Ruofeng was breathing heavily with difficulty, but his hands were still constantly forming seals and attacking.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaobai and Jin Xuan thought that since Helan Ruofeng was willing to fight to the death for them, why should they just stand by and watch? It would be better to fight the snake demon than to die anyway.

The two men looked at each other, raised the only weapons in their hands, the peach wood swords, and stabbed at the red snake demon.

The snake demon clamped the crocodile spirit in one hand and Helan Ruofeng in the other. At this moment, he was concentrating on sucking the crocodile spirit's soul and had no time to deal with these two seemingly useless humans.

This was indeed the case. Yu Xiaobai and Jin Xuan were seen weakly poking at the red snake demon with their mass-produced peach wood swords. What was even more infuriating was that they couldn't poke a hole in the demon's robe even after poking it dozens of times.

Seeing that the peach wood sword was of no use at all, Jin Xuan simply threw it aside. He looked around for a long time but didn't see any suitable weapon. Instead, he took out the crystal stone that Helan Ruofeng had given him. He didn't think much about it this time and swung it at the opponent.

As the Red Snake Demon's wrist tightened, Helan Ruofeng's face gradually turned red, and the whites of his eyes moved out uncontrollably. He fell to the ground, and his limbs began to kick around weakly.

When Yu Xiaobai saw this scene, she thought that Helan Ruofeng was going to be in trouble. Thinking of the hand that this guy stretched out to her when he was tired and fell down, and his sunny smile, she saw that he kept rolling his eyes.

Yu Xiaobai used the most primitive method. She tried her best to grab the wrist of the red-banded snake demon and bit down on the meridian with all her strength.

A fishy and sweet taste soaked into the tip of her tongue. Yu Xiaobai held on tightly and did not let go, and began to suck with what she thought was the greatest suction force.

"Hmph! You're looking for death..." The red-banded snake demon suddenly felt a sharp pain in his wrist and immediately let go of Helan Ruofeng who was clamped in his grip. The crocodile spirit whose soul was almost sucked dry also fought hard at this moment and broke free.

The red snake demon was furious and tried to shake off Yu Xiaobai.

At this time, Yu Xiaobai was determined to die and entangled with him, so she naturally didn't think of letting go. She used both hands to grab the wrist of the red snake demon with all her strength, and her ten fingernails had already embedded in the other's flesh, and her mouth was still sucking his smelly blood vigorously.

"Let go..." The red snake demon screamed in panic for some reason, jumping around and using his other hand to grab Yu Xiaobai's hair.

Yu Xiaobai felt like her scalp was about to be ripped off, but her strong willpower prevented her from letting go. She was going to die anyway. It was better to die gloriously than to die in a cowardly way.
