Chapter 461: Will We Be Discovered?
The figure that almost blended into the night landed behind a hidden stone. Not far away, rows of well-trained demons were patrolling.
Ji Jiuying looked up at the red moon in the sky. Qing Hu said that these demons would change shifts at midnight. She only had this one chance to enter the Demon Palace. Now there was still some time before midnight. Ji Jiuying's expression changed slightly and she flashed into the space.
The man in the dark noticed that her breath had disappeared and frowned, his eyes darkening.
"Mother."
Xiao Huang'er and Xuanwu ran towards Ji Jiuying, Hei Xiangling and Dongfang Yao also came up.
"Girl, can that man be trusted?"
Hei Xiangling asked.
Ji Jiuying curled her lips. In fact, she didn't know whether to trust him or not, but she was unfamiliar with the place and it was not easy for her to ask those monsters. She could only trust him. It was better than being like a headless fly.
"I can only trust him here, right?"
"Little girl, the evil aura on that man is much stronger than the ones we encountered yesterday! In my opinion, you should be more cautious."
She also understood what Dongfang Yao said, and that was why she didn't tell anyone about the Xuanbing Flower because she was on guard.
Soon, midnight arrived, and Ji Jiuying used an invisibility talisman and appeared outside the demon palace again.
The man in the dark showed a hint of surprise, thinking of how she suddenly appeared behind him this morning. So that's it... What a surprise!
About a cup of tea later, those demon soldiers really left and met up not far away. Ji Jiuying moved lightly and slipped into the demon palace. Those demon soldiers guarding the door only felt a breeze blowing by and did not pay much attention.
Ji Jiuying came to the huge demon palace, which was surrounded by towering walls. These walls were different from the imperial palace, and the buildings were all dark in color. Under the illumination of the red moon, they looked particularly mysterious and solemn.
There are so many palaces, which one is Si Yu imprisoned in?
Just when Ji Jiuying was struggling, two banshees slowly came over from not far away. Suddenly, an idea came to him. When the two banshees passed by Ji Jiuying, Ji Jiuying used his pupil technique to control the two banshees at the same time. The banshees suddenly stood there in a daze.
Ji Jiuying took the opportunity to use her soul technique to search the memories of the two banshees, but there was not a single piece of information about Si Yu. Could it be that the level of these two banshees was too low?
When Dongfang Yao in the space saw Ji Jiuying performing soul magic, he was stunned. This girl knows a lot.
Ji Jiuying's eyes fell on the trays in their hands. She could tell at a glance that the fabrics of these robes were extraordinary. They must have been given to a demon of a higher level.
His eyes narrowed, and he knocked one of the banshees unconscious with a palm, dragged her to the grass beside him, and then asked Hei Xiangling to use illusion to disguise her as the banshee. His movements were as smooth as flowing water. He picked up the tray on the ground and snapped his fingers. One of the banshees woke up and continued walking forward, without noticing that the person next to her had been replaced.
"You stupid girl, you are so bold. What if these robes are given to the Demon King? Wouldn't you be walking into a trap?" Hei Xiangling said worriedly.
"Xiang Ling, if you want to do something big, you need courage!"
Ji Jiuying followed the demon girl and soon arrived at a magnificent palace. Two demon soldiers at the door saw them coming and shouted, "Why are you so late tonight? If the demon king blames you, you won't have enough lives to live!"
Ji Jiuying twitched her lips. What kind of shit luck is this! It really is the clothes of the demon king!
"Master Ji, I know I was wrong. Please, Demon King, Master Ji, forgive us sisters this time." The demon girl admitted her mistakes repeatedly in panic. Ji Jiuying just lowered her head and said nothing.
Ji Jiuying: "Hei Xiangling, you have a bad mouth!"
······
"Alright, alright, come in!"
The male demon with a cockscomb on his head said, Ji Jiuying's heart sank, they still need to be sent in? Would this demon king also want them to change clothes?
At this point, there is no way back and I can only follow suit.
The door was opened by two demons guarding the door. The inside was filled with mist, making it hazy. Ji Jiuying followed the demons in nervously, glancing at the screen beside her. It turned out that the demon king was taking a bath!
Ji Jiuying followed the witch and put away her clothes. Then she lowered her head and followed the witch. Just as she was about to leave, a deep male voice suddenly came from behind the screen, "Stop."
The banshee knelt on the ground in fear. Not only did she kneel down herself, she also pulled Ji Jiuying with her. Fortunately, Ji Jiuying reacted quickly and supported herself on the ground with her hands to prevent her knees from falling.
"Your Highness the Demon King, please spare my life. I know I was wrong. I did not mean to deliver it so late..."
There was silence behind the screen, and after a while another voice was heard.
"get out!"
"..."
"Thank you, Demon King."
The two of them stood up tremblingly. Ji Jiuying frowned. What was going on?
"The monsters that can speak can leave, and the monsters that can't speak can stay."
Ji Jiuying wanted to curse when she heard this. The banshee looked at Ji Jiuying with sympathy, bit her lower lip and retreated, and even closed the door considerately!
Could it be that he was discovered?
There was only the sound of water behind the screen. Ji Jiuying closed her eyes and said, "I will endure it. I will not move until the enemy moves."
"Come and help me rub my back!"
The cold voice came from behind the screen again. Ji Jiuying's face turned dark. He rubbed her back, you damn monster. It's so beautiful to think about it!
"Ok?"
The demon king made an extremely dangerous sound. Before knowing the other party's strength clearly, she must not act rashly. Moreover, she was now on his territory. Ji Jiuying had no choice but to walk up tremblingly. She saw a strong man leaning against the edge of the pool with his hair half covered. However, Ji Jiuying could still clearly see a nine-tailed fox carved on his back, but the hazy mist made it impossible to see his true face.
Dongfang Yao's voice came from his mind, "Little girl, the breath of this demon is so strong."
"You stupid girl, stab him with a needle and then search his soul."
When Hei Xiangling's voice came, Ji Jiuying's eyes flashed slightly, and she placed her hands lightly on the demon king's shoulders. Suddenly, three silver needles soaked with poison stabbed towards the demon king in the pool.
Wow!
The splashing water blurred her vision. She vaguely heard the sound of people putting on clothes. Ji Jiuying's heart sank. She had actually failed!
A cold light flashed by, and in the mist, a man wearing a fox mask attacked with strong murderous intent. Ji Jiuying hurriedly summoned the Night to block the fatal blow, and the force collided and the screen was instantly blown apart.
The demon soldiers outside the door heard the noise and quickly picked up their weapons and rushed in.
"Don't come in!"
A cold and ruthless voice came from inside. The demon soldier's footsteps suddenly stopped and looked at Lord Ji who was standing beside him. Lord Ji shook his head and said, "Retreat!"
Although he retreated, Master Ji's eyes were looking into the room. Why was the Demon King so abnormal today? Leaving a demon girl behind and making such a big noise, could it be... His old face blushed as he thought of something.
