Chapter 150 The Place of Tribulation
Of course, for Li Shao, Yang Fan and the suddenly appearing one-armed cultivator were not the main point at all.
After quickly explaining the whereabouts of the two men, Li Shao added, "I originally saw some unusual phenomena in this place and suspected that Your Majesty was here, so I came here alone to search for you."
"I have entered into a master-servant contract with His Majesty the Emperor, and the Feather Clan is close to me, so I arrived more quickly than others."
"We'd better leave this place quickly, or those treasure-hunting cultivators will arrive soon."
The demonic bird summoned by the emperor was readily available, so everyone hurriedly helped Rong Qing and Rong Yan onto its back.
Although Rong Yan has done many wrong things, we cannot let him die in the wilderness and be bullied by others.
The demon bird sped away, carrying everyone towards the distance, flying towards her and Hei Lian's territory under Xue Lian's guidance.
Mu Yunjian said strangely, "You monster are really strange. Before, you kept calling me Brother Rong, but now you're taking the initiative to lead us to your territory for refuge? You don't have ulterior motives, do you?"
The Emperor decreed, “She and her partner will return to the Demon Realm with me to serve as my subordinates. I promised to provide her partner with a Transformation Grass, and she agreed.”
Yun Yici was stunned for a moment, not expecting that the imperial edict and Xue Lian had reached a private agreement.
Mu Yunjian snorted coldly and said, "You? Where did you get the Transformation Grass?"
Di Zhao glanced at him and retorted, "Do you think I'm like you? Any demon lord in the demon realm who has it, they'll all obediently hand it over if I ask."
While the two were bickering, Li Shao was treating Rong Xuan.
Seeing his skillful technique, Wen Fuyue said gratefully, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li. We've been traveling together, and I never knew you were a medical cultivator."
Li Shao continued working without stopping, replying, "No need to thank me, I'm not exactly a proper medical practitioner."
"It's just that in the Demon Realm, the lives of human cultivators are too worthless. Knowing some medical skills can help them live longer."
Wen Fuyue unintentionally touched on the other party's wound and immediately apologized repeatedly.
Guided by the snow ribbon, the demon bird landed on a flat snowfield behind the mountain.
Xue Lian said, "The other three ninth-tier demonic beasts are all watching us."
“We had some connection with Brother Rong before. When I was in my human form and recovering from my weakness, Brother Rong helped me avoid being spied on by other demons. In return, he asked me to guard that small house and never allowed me to go in.”
This is also why Xue Lian didn't help Rong Yan.
The original agreement was that I would guard the house and not let anyone in; fighting would be charged separately.
Xue Lian let out a roar, and soon after, a hideous monster resembling a monkey with black fur covered in white spots ran out from a hidden cave. However, its height only reached the knees of the crowd.
Where is the incomparably powerful ninth-tier demonic beast that was promised?
Fortunately, demonic beasts can speak human language once they reach the ninth rank.
Hei Lian cautiously observed the group with Xue Lian. He asked, "Xue Lian, who are these people? Brother Rong...?"
His gaze fell on Rong Yan, who was already dead on the bird's back, and he was so surprised that he couldn't speak.
In his mind, Rong Yan was a top-tier cultivator, but he never expected that...
Xue Lian was oblivious to this, and she did not forget to boast to the Emperor, "We are very powerful, it's just that it's inconvenient to rest when we turn back to our original form, so we usually look like this."
Imperial decree: I don't care, I only care about your spatial abilities.
After Xue Lian finished playing her instrument, she was not very interested in seeing the imperial edict, so she hurriedly said to Hei Lian, "I met them through Brother Rong. They are Brother Rong's apprentice and grand-apprentice."
"And this guy, he said he could help us get the Transformation Grass, as long as we go to the Demon Realm with him."
Hei Lian's face darkened as she looked at Di Zhao and said, "We will not go to the Demon Realm with you. I would rather not have your Transformation Grass."
Xue Lian panicked and said, "He's different. He's a demon cultivator. He said he can give us the Transformation Grass."
Hei Lian rebuked, "What kind of demon cultivator is in the Demon Realm! He's trying to trick us into going to the Demon Realm to work for him and die! Human cultivators and demon cultivators are the worst!"
"What are you doing here with them? Get them out of here right now."
The emperor had nothing to say. With a slight movement of his fingers, a tiny flame that burned the soul and brought fear appeared in his hand.
The Emperor decreed: "I value your abilities and thus elevate you. You have only two choices: I will procure the Transformation Grass for you, and you will serve me, or you will die."
"Oh, by the way, I've recently found the human realm quite nice and am thinking of moving my territory here. It's not impossible for you not to go to the demon realm."
The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Even a lowly rabbit has three burrows. What's wrong with him, a phoenix, having a few more territories?"
However, Kunlun was not an option; he disliked places where snow stretched for thousands of miles.
The moment the flames appeared in Di Zhao's hand, Hei Lian quickly went silent. The majesty of the ninth-tier demon beast vanished, and he led the group to his and Xue Lian's cave, trembling.
To everyone's surprise, the cave was extremely clean and tidy.
Moreover, as Xue Lian said, the Snow Sun Grass that Shang Wen had been seeking but could not obtain was indeed spread all over the two beasts' dens as if it were free.
Rong Xuan's condition gradually stabilized, so Li Shao said, "The Lord of Shang City is having a headache over his daughter's matter. Since it's just a small favor, why not bring a Snow Sun Grass down the mountain for him?"
Yun Yici said, "I have already asked Xue Lian for one, and I will give it to the shop owner when I return to Wangyue City."
The emperor also recognized that this was a good thing, but the nest had already been used by Hei Lianxue.
He wouldn't even look at a monster's lair.
Xue Lian hurriedly said, "This Snow Sun Grass only grows once every hundred years. We change our burrows every hundred years, and the new Snow Sun Grass will be ready in another year or two."
"We also use this Snow Sun Grass for warmth. If you can bring some warm items with you, we can give you all of the Snow Sun Grass."
Yun Yici asked, "Does the Snow Sun Grass in your nest affect the efficacy of the medicine?"
Shang Wen was eager to save his daughter and was afraid he wouldn't want to wait another year or two.
Xue Lian said, "The chill of Kunlun will not spoil even if left for another thousand years."
Yun Yici was finally relieved.
However, she soon thought of something very important.
Yun Yici asked, "Senior Xue Lian, you said before that you had a place where you could avoid the Transformation Lightning Tribulation?"
"Where is that place? Could you allow my senior brother and another friend of mine to undergo tribulation?"
Hei Lian then noticed the seemingly inconspicuous, well-behaved white rabbit in Yun Yi Ci's hair.
He shuddered and asked, "How many demon cultivators are there?"
His gaze fell on Di Zhao and Mu Yunjian, and he murmured, "You are a demon cultivator...you are also a demon cultivator..."
"Have all the demon cultivators come to the human realm?"
Black Lotus was quite shocked, but Snow Lotus answered: "That place to avoid the lightning is none other than the Demon Realm."
"The Demon Realm??"
Mu Yunjian exclaimed in astonishment, "Impossible! The border between the demon realm and the human realm is tens of thousands of miles away from here. How could you possibly travel directly from Kunlun to the demon realm?"
