Chapter 230 Spreading the News
Chapter 230 Spreading the News
When the cultivator who had reached the Nascent Soul stage rushed to the reception room, he found it in complete disarray.
Tables and chairs were scattered haphazardly, the floor was uneven, and the walls were full of cracks.
Chen Wan'er and her group had already vanished without a trace, leaving only a group of wolf demons standing there, their eyes still filled with lingering fear and confusion.
"What exactly happened? What just occurred?"
The voice of the Nascent Soul cultivator suddenly rang out amidst the chaos, carrying a mixture of authority and doubt.
The demons seemed to be startled awake, and only then did they come to their senses.
Amidst a flurry of conversations, the whole story gradually became clear.
Upon hearing that the Ninth Prince had been killed on the spot, the combined wolf demon's face instantly darkened like the sky before a storm, and his aura suddenly became violent.
Without a second thought, he flashed away and chased after Chen Wan'er in the direction she had gone.
However, when he ran out of the wolf clan's territory, he looked around and found no one there, only the howling wind, which seemed to be mercilessly mocking his futile efforts.
All he knew was that the perpetrator was the Wood Spirit Princess who had suddenly appeared recently, but he had no idea whether the princess was real or not.
If they really let some unknown imposter kill the chieftain's son on their territory.
He will likely have no place in the clan from now on, and his life may even be in danger.
But now that the Ninth Prince has been killed, no matter what the Wood Spirit Princess's identity is, he must arrest her before the clan leader returns.
After all, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, dealing with a Nascent Soul stage Wood Spirit Princess should have been more than enough in terms of cultivation.
However, in this vast world, he had no idea where the Wood Spirit Princess was hiding.
If she were to simply find a secluded place to hide, finding her would be an impossible task.
Thinking of this, the combined wolf demon was extremely anxious and immediately sent a message to all the wolf clan members who were still staying in the clan.
An urgent order was issued: spare no effort to find out the whereabouts of Princess Muling.
He also made a solemn promise that whoever succeeded in killing the Wood Spirit Princess, he would personally speak well of her before the clan leader, helping her to obtain unparalleled glory and generous rewards.
Upon receiving this order, the wolf demons who had never witnessed Chen Wan'er's power were instantly filled with excitement.
They fantasized about the wonderful scene of being praised and rewarded by the clan leader after killing the Wood Spirit Princess, and their status in the clan would rise soaring.
Everyone is ready to give it a try.
Unfortunately, they were unaware that they were about to face a cruel reality far beyond their imagination, and that the beauty of their ideals would ultimately be shattered by the coldness of reality.
As soon as Chen Wan'er returned to the Blood Demon Society's base, she immediately summoned all the demons.
She remained calm, her gaze sweeping over each of the demons.
He then raised his hand to signal, and the little demon beside him quickly brought out a tray filled with spiritual energy beads that emitted a soft glow.
"Everyone, thank you for accompanying me on this journey today."
These are spirit energy beads, one for each person. Distribute them.
Chen Wan'er's voice was clear and powerful, echoing in the open space.
The demons stepped forward and accepted the spiritual energy beads.
At first, many monsters were filled with doubt, muttering to themselves:
This spirit bead looks round and beautiful, but is it really that magical?
Could it possibly be better than the spirit stones we usually use?
Just then, an impatient little demon couldn't contain its curiosity and immediately began absorbing the spiritual energy from the spiritual energy bead.
In an instant, he was enveloped by a rich and pure spiritual power, and his previously somewhat weak aura instantly became strong, with a faint spiritual light shimmering beneath his skin.
He couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "This...this spiritual energy is too abundant!"
Upon hearing this, the demons immediately erupted in chaos.
Seeing this, the other monsters followed suit and began absorbing the spiritual energy beads.
In an instant, spiritual energy surged throughout the area, and light shone everywhere.
The demons were pleasantly surprised to find that the spiritual energy in this spiritual energy bead was not only several times more abundant than that in the spirit stone, but also incredibly pure, with almost no impurities.
During the absorption process, there is absolutely no need to worry about the risk of impure spiritual energy causing damage to the meridians.
It also greatly enhances cultivation speed.
What would normally take several days to overcome can now be easily done in just a few hours with the help of the spirit bead.
"Thank you for your generosity, Your Highness. But is there anything else I can do for you?"
The crow demon, all smiles, broke the lively atmosphere, his fawning expression practically written all over his face.
His voice was high-pitched and stood out starkly amidst the cacophony of surging spiritual energy.
Chen Wan'er nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in her eyes as she looked at the demons who were excited about the spiritual energy bead.
She parted her lips slightly, her tone seemingly casual yet carrying an undeniable air of authority:
"It's nothing serious, we just need you to spread a message."
Upon hearing this, the demons below instantly perked up, rubbing their hands together and shouting at the top of their lungs:
"Your Highness, just give us your orders, and we will do our best to fulfill them!"
The sounds rose and fell, creating a wave of sound in the open space.
Chen Wan'er's lips curled slightly upward, revealing a faint smile, and she said slowly and deliberately:
"In that case, you should spread a message that the wolf clan has offended the wood spirit clan and will soon be punished by them."
Upon hearing this, the smiles on the faces of the demons froze instantly. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.
This news sounds too bizarre. The wolf clan has always been powerful, and the wood spirit clan rarely clashes with the outside world. Is there really such a thing as punishment?
If word gets out but no punishment is given, wouldn't that make the princess lose face?
However, the princess has already given the order, and questioning it now would only be asking for trouble.
For a moment, the area fell silent, with only the occasional sound of spiritual energy fluctuations.
But soon, the demons, still feeling uneasy, began to disperse as Chen Wan'er had instructed, spreading the news.
Just as the demons of the Blood Demon Society gradually disappeared from sight, two figures hurriedly approached from afar. They were Baili Chen and Lou Chongxiao.
They walked quickly and looked slightly tired, clearly having gone through some hardships.
It turned out that they were unlucky and almost bumped into the Nascent Soul cultivator on their way back.
Left with no other option, I had to take a detour, which caused the delay and I'm only now getting back.
"Fifth Senior Brother, Eighth Senior Brother, are you two alright?"
Chen Wan'er quickly stepped forward, her eyes full of concern, her gaze shifting back and forth between Baili Chen and Lou Chongxiao.
Baili Chen raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his face and shook his head slightly.
His face showed undisguised fatigue, and his voice was slightly hoarse as he spoke:
"It's alright, we were just about to find it. But then a wolf demon suddenly came out on patrol, and my eighth brother and I were afraid of revealing our whereabouts, so we had to give up."
