Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"If I'm not mistaken, she is from the demon clan. There are disciples of the Yuling Sect patrolling here frequently. She doesn't dare to stay here openly, so she borrows your human body to cover up the demon clan aura on her body to facilitate her actions outside." Zhou Ze analyzed.

"What did you do outside? Did you do anything bad?" Miss Zhu asked worriedly again.

"She used your body to suck the essence of many human men outside. These men whose essence was sucked away turned into mummies, and their souls were also sucked away by her." Zhou Ze explained seriously.

"What? It's so horrifying?" Mr. Zhu and the housekeeper were trembling with fear.

"Don't be afraid, Master Zhu. According to Huo Ning from the Yuling Sect, all the victims killed by this witch Zhu Ji were young men." Zhou Ze explained helplessly when he saw this.

Only then did Mr. Zhu and the housekeeper breathe a sigh of relief.

"Is my daughter okay? Will that witch come back?" Mr. Zhu asked worriedly.

"I can't say for sure, but if you're worried, I'll leave a few fellow apprentices here to protect Miss Zhu. Once the evildoer is caught, Miss Zhu will be safe." Zhou Ze said.

After he said this, the people who had just worked together began to fall apart again.

"Huh? They really started to form cliques and gangs of two or three." Cong Li watched the scene excitedly.

Yu Xiaobai looked very proud of himself.

Helan Ruofeng, who was standing aside, was in deep thought at the moment. He had been guessing about Yu Xiaobai's origins.

She suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and was very enthusiastic towards him as soon as they met, as if they had known each other for a long time. She also said something inexplicable these days. She even knew that he used crystal to break the red snake demon's barrier in the secret realm, which made Helan Ruofeng doubt her identity.

Zhou Ze arranged for Mo Xiaotan and Hong Ling to stay and look after Miss Zhu, and asked Xing Fang and Chu Huaiqin to go to the Yuling Sect to inform Huo Ning.

He himself led a group of people to continue searching for the trace of the bird demon.

Along the way, everyone was discussing their experiences in dealing with the bird monster and were very excited.

Zhou Ze walked quietly in front, holding the monster-hunting compass.

Cong Li and Yu Xiaobai were chatting, while Helan Ruofeng was walking quietly behind them, some distance away.

Seeing this, Zi Yan slowed down and followed Helan Ruofeng.

"Miss Zi Yan, do you still remember what happened in the cave that day?" Helan Ruofeng asked tentatively.

"Of course I remember it. I'll never forget it." Zi Yan thought for a moment and replied.

Helan Ruofeng stared at Zi Yan, as if he wanted to see another person through her.

"I remember that the crocodile dragon appeared first that day, and you wanted to take its inner elixir, but unexpectedly the red snake demon appeared. I thought I would die there that day, but I didn't expect us to escape and kill the crocodile dragon."

Zi Yan recalled the situation at that time. She had completely given up struggling. It was Xue'er's final desperate attack that turned the situation around. She could only feel a little bit of physical abnormality and fear. All the pain was borne by Xue'er, who could control her body.

Two years have passed. If Xue'er were reincarnated, she would probably be a half-grown puppy. To be honest, she really missed that stupid dog.

"Crocodile?" Helan Ruofeng felt strange again. Zi Yan could accurately describe what happened that day, but she called it crocodile... Shouldn't she call it 'crocodile'?

"Mr. Helan? You like Junior Sister Xiaoyu, right?" Zi Yan suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"Master Helan?" Helan Ruofeng was also very sensitive to this title. Zi Yan had always called him Ruofeng in the secret realm, and she would not really call him Master Helan strangely. She also called Jin Xuan by his full name, but now she called him His Majesty the Emperor.

Even

"Mr. Helan?" Zi Yan called out again when she saw him in a daze.

"Hmm!" Helan Ruofeng didn't know how to answer for a moment. The little fairy of the past asked him whether he liked the little fairy of today. How should he answer?

"Junior Sister Xiaoyu is a good girl, don't let her down." Zi Yan said seriously and quickened her pace.

Some things are easier to see clearly from the sidelines. Zi Yan knew that these two must have feelings for each other, but they just didn't say it out loud.

Helan Ruofeng didn't understand why Zi Yan suddenly said this to him. Hadn't she always been cold and unwilling to pay attention to him before?

"Boy, what did your sweetheart just say to you?" Yu Xiaobai's hand suddenly rested on Helan Ruofeng's shoulder, and he asked with a look of curiosity.

"Aren't you his sweetheart?" Cong Li asked Yu Xiaobai with a curious look.

"He is just trying to cover up his mistake by doing some substitute literature. He doesn't dare to tell anyone." Yu Xiaobai turned around and explained to Cong Li.

"So that's how it is..." Cong Li suddenly realized and sighed as if he had finally learned the truth.

After the two of them finished talking, they continued walking and chatting with a smile, leaving Helan Ruofeng alone, disheveled in the wind.

Everyone followed Zhou Ze and unknowingly walked out of Zen City and arrived in the suburbs.

On the outskirts of Zen City, a snow cave...

Sang Zi's wounds had been treated, and he sat expressionlessly on the stone couch. Lying on the stone couch was Hei Yu, who had been missing for a long time. At this time, Hei Yu's soul was damaged and he had become an unconscious body.

On the table next to it, there was a lamp that was always on, the light flickering as if it would go out in the next second.

Suddenly, a red figure rushed in, staggering and unsteady. When he looked closely at the person, it turned out to be Zhu Ji who had saved him that night.

"What happened? Were you discovered?" Sang Zi stood up and asked, suppressing the pain.

"It's none of your business." Zhu Ji walked slowly to the stone couch and sat down, looking at Hei Yu who was sleeping on the couch, and then at the eternal lamp on the side.

"Are you really doing this just to revive Heiyu?" Sang Zi walked aside and sat down, asking in a deep voice.

"We have never enjoyed the peace and prosperity of the Demon King's rule. We were born to be an oppressed demon clan. Just because several elders have different intentions, we have become their pawns." Zhu Ji said coldly.

"What is the Third Elder's attitude towards the Demon King's rebirth?" Sang Zi asked again.

"Does the Third Elder's attitude matter? Since I'm the one who came to check, why don't you ask about my attitude? Heiyu's attitude? Aren't we part of the demon world?" Zhu Ji suddenly raised her voice and questioned.

"Hehe, Ming Changyi is ambitious and wants to be the only one in power. He definitely doesn't want the Demon King to come back." Sang Zi said with certainty without even thinking.

"Hehe? Doesn't your Great Elder have his own respect? They are all the same. The reason they asked us to come out to find the Demon King is simply to make plans for themselves in advance." Zhu Ji sneered.

"I expected Heiyu to be injured. I didn't treat him as a tool. Didn't I get out on my own?" Sang Zi knew what Zhu Ji meant.

Once the demons entered the human territory, if they were lucky, they would be punished and sent back to the demon world. If they were unlucky or resisted, they would be imprisoned by the immortals or executed on the spot.

Several elders of the demon clan with high cultivation have never set foot in the human world since the demon king Fen Ji. However, they often send some innocent and simple little demons with decent cultivation and no knowledge of the dangers of the human world to the human world to gather information.

Over the past thousands of years, countless ignorant little demons have died in the human world. When the Demon King was burned to death, Sang Zi was still a child and Hei Yu did not even exist, but their mission was the same, to find all possible traces of the Demon King's rebirth.

Just as Zhu Ji said, if they really found the body of the demon king, what would the elders do? Kill him? Embrace him? The result was unpredictable. But these insignificant minions almost lost their lives in the process.

"So, you can't stop me from resurrecting Heiyu. I have followed him for as many years as he has been searching for the Demon King. Although he doesn't like me on the surface, he will definitely save me if I am attacked by the Immortal Sect. This time it is my turn to save him. You said we have time, so why not go and find out who is stopping us from looking for the Demon King." Zhu Ji took a deep breath and said calmly.

"You will anger them sooner or later by killing human beings so wantonly." Sang Zi advised earnestly.

"Haha, I've done this, so why should I be afraid of angering them? As long as I gather enough human energy as soon as possible, Heiyu can wake up." Zhu Ji said a little crazily.

"Aren't you afraid that people from the Immortal Sect will find this place?" Sang Zi said worriedly.

"So I must take Heiyu away from here now. As for you, leave quickly. I am already no match for the disciples from Yunji Villa, and it will be difficult if the Yuling Sect is added." Zhu Ji said as she was about to take Heiyu away.

At this moment, Zhou Ze had already arrived outside the snow cave with a group of people.

Everyone looked vigilantly at the dark entrance to the snow cave not far away.

"It's creepy."

"Wasn't she injured by my senior brother just now?"

“Is there a mechanism here?”

"What are you afraid of? If she dares to come out, we will attack her together like we did before."

Everyone was waiting outside the snow cave, gossiping and chatting.

"The eldest brother probably wants to wait for the people from the Yuling Sect to arrive before going in together. If they catch the bird monster themselves, they will probably release Tong Yi!" Mo Xiaotan guessed.

"That's right. The bird demon has been injured by us. Now we just have to wait for the people from the Yuling Sect to come, capture the bird demon and release the people." Zhou Ze replied.

Zhu Ji heard the noise and went to the cave entrance to check. She thought to herself that it was bad. She was only slightly injured. If she fought hard, she would have a chance to escape. But if she took Hei Yu and Sang Zi with her, no one would be able to escape.

"The people from the Immortal Sect are here, right?" Sang Zi hit the nail on the head. It looked like another life-and-death battle was about to begin.

"You take Heiyu away, and I will deal with them." After Zhu Ji said this, she tried to use teleportation to send Sangzi and Heiyu away.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Ze had already set up a monster-catching net and bounced the two back.

"Looks like we have no choice but to fight." Sang Zi transformed Hei Yu into his true form and hid it in his sleeves, then rushed out with gritted teeth.

"Sangzi, you must help me rescue Heiyu." Zhu Ji instructed, and rushed out of the snow cave before Sangzi and attacked Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze quickly drew his sword and rushed forward, and the two of them fought again.

The others also went to besiege Sang Zi. Although Sang Zi was injured, he was still the first guard of the demon clan's great elder. A ten thousand year old demon, how could this group of rookies be able to take him down?

Soon several disciples were knocked aside.

"Do we need to go up and help?" Cong Li looked panicked. He knew how to escape, but he had never fought.

"Let me go! You and Xiaoyu find a place to hide." Helan Ruofeng joined the team besieging Sangzi.

Helan Ruofeng's strength was not to be underestimated. After taking Bai Qiyang's top-grade Ningyuan Pill, his cultivation had reached the level of an immortal. At this time, he faced the injured Sang Zi, and the fight was difficult to determine.

In a short while, people from the Yuling Sect also hurried over. There were no less than fifty people coming in a hurry. Could it be that the Yuling Sect had come out in full force?

"The one who is harming people is the red bird demon. Let's work together to kill him." Huo Ning's voice arrived before his men arrived.

A sharp sword was unsheathed and attacked Zhu Ji, and others also surrounded her.

"Set up the formation..." Huo Ning shouted.

The disciples of the Yuling Sect quickly and well-trainedly stood in their respective positions.

"Everyone from Yunji Villa, get out..." Huo Ning yelled again.

Hearing this, Zhou Ze was stunned for a moment, then he shouted, "Everyone in Yunji Villa, withdraw immediately."

When Mo Xiaotan and others heard Zhou Ze's order, they all withdrew from the encirclement of the Yuling Sect as quickly as possible.

Zhu Ji, your hometown is surrounded tightly.

"I am the one who killed him, let him go." Zhu Ji shouted towards the outside.

"Set up the formation..." Huo Ning didn't listen to Zhu Ji at all and gave the order.

All the disciples of the Yuling Sect used their sword techniques and spiritual power in unison, and an impenetrable sword net was aimed at Zhu Ji and Sang Zi.

"The Heavenly Punishment Formation will punish evil... Command..." Huo Ning gave another order.

"The Heavenly Punishment Array, punish the evil... command..." The disciples of the Yuling Sect followed the order and activated the array. They saw a dense rain of swords weaving an impenetrable net, attacking Zhu Ji and Sang Zi in the array.

Zhu Ji swung her wide red sleeves to defend herself, and Sang Zi did the same. The two leaned on each other to avoid the rain of swords.

Huo Ning stood aside and watched vigilantly. He didn't expect that these two could withstand the Heavenly Punishment Formation that the Yuling Sect was most proud of for so long. It was obvious that they were not ordinary demons.

It was the first time that the people at Yunji Villa saw the long-rumored Yuling Sect's Heavenly Punishment Formation, and they all widened their eyes in excitement.

In the battle, Sang Zi was defeated and hit several times. His eyes were red and his clothes were ragged. His face, which was still calm, was also covered with bloodstains, which made him look even more desolate.

Zhu Ji was not much better than Sang Zi, she was the adopted daughter of Ming Changyi, the third elder of the demon world. Although she was called an adopted daughter, she was actually just a pawn he placed in the human world to gather information.

Zhu Ji is already a ten thousand year old blood sparrow demon with a high level of cultivation, much more powerful than Sang Zi. If she had not absorbed the essence of humans to repair the Black Feather Soul in the past six months, she would not have been besieged by this group of immortal disciples.

"I didn't expect the power of this Heavenly Punishment Formation to be so terrifying." Cong Li said as he quietly retreated behind Yu Xiaobai.

"It's a bit scary." Yu Xiaobai also wanted to hide back. Once the magic circle appeared, she dared not forget her identity.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Helan Ruofeng thought the scene was too scary, so he stood in front of the two of them.

The power of the magic circle continues, and the people in the circle are still fighting desperately.

"Sangzi, I am willing to detonate my demon pill to break this formation. Remember my words, you must help me save Heiyu. Tell him, Zhuji, I have no regrets." After Zhuji said this, she began to use all her demon power to prepare for a counterattack.

"Zhu Ji, don't do anything rash. Resurrecting Hei Yu is your own business. I don't have time to do this with you." Sang Zi shouted loudly, trying to stop Zhu Ji from self-destructing the demon pill.

"I am a ten thousand year old blood bird. With these immortal disciples buried with me, I won't be bored anymore in the underworld." Zhu Ji no longer paid attention to Sang Zi's loud roars, and concentrated on concentrating all her demonic power in one place.

"Remove the magic circle, quickly remove the magic circle..." Zhou Ze noticed something unusual and hurriedly shouted to stop them.

"Those two evil monsters are about to die. How can we remove the magic circle at this time?" Huo Ning asked puzzledly.

"Quickly remove the magic circle. She wants to destroy us all. It's too late..." Zhou Ze dodged before he could finish his words.
