Chapter 94 The Demon Queen Qianye
Chapter 94 The Demon Queen Qianye
Bang!
Gu Susu was slammed against the wall by overwhelming force.
Even though there was no one in front of her, she was pinned to the wall and unable to move an inch.
"Run away, why aren't you running away?" A haughty female voice came from all directions, making it almost impossible to discern its location.
Gu Susu trembled, her black stockings making her look like a mature woman in disguise completely gone: "Mom, I'm not running away anymore—!"
A haughty female voice commanded, "Call him Your Majesty!"
Click!
The wall behind Gu Susu was cracked like a spider web.
Her eyes held a complex pain, whether physical or emotional, she whispered, "Your Majesty..."
Silently, a delicate figure emerged from the air.
This is none other than Qianye, the current Demon Queen of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.
She was tall and slender, and with her slender, white fingers, she gently lifted Gu Susu's chin: "Bear with it."
Wow.
Gu Susu's clothes were torn open around her abdomen, and then her flesh was also torn open, revealing her bright red internal organs.
Strangely, not a single drop of blood flowed out.
Qianye stretched out her hand, which was as smooth as mutton fat jade, and went straight into the other person's abdominal cavity.
Gu Susu's tears streamed down her face. This kind of pain that went deep into her bones was something she could never get used to, no matter how many times she experienced it.
"Bear with it." Qianye's hands were imbued with spiritual energy as she continued to penetrate deeper.
For the past three years, she has been disemboweling herself and stealing her inner core every three to five days.
This body is peculiar, completely different from other demons.
Even if the inner core is removed, it can grow back the next day and mature in a few days.
Moreover, its quality is extremely high, and it is highly effective whether used for cultivation or medicine making.
Gu Susu trembled with sadness, but she still managed to suppress her struggle.
Her eyes held pain, but even more so, tenderness.
For the past three years, I've been living the same kind of life.
Occasionally, he could enjoy a sip of strong liquor while retrieving elixirs in his slumber.
The pain of losing the inner core is still excruciating even after waking up.
Gu Susu finally couldn't bear it any longer and took the opportunity to escape.
Monsters are creatures of heaven and earth. Gu Susu followed her senses and eventually found the academy, where she absorbed the energy of books from afar in hopes of restoring herself.
But he was still discovered and injured again.
Just when they thought they were about to be taken back, they encountered two children...
Qianye's voice was teasing: "Just bear with it, this is your fate."
"Ha." She chuckled self-deprecatingly as she fumbled around, "Isn't this just our fate?"
"Ok?"
Qianye suddenly exclaimed, "Where's your inner core?!"
Amidst the pain, Gu Susu suddenly remembered something and abruptly held her breath: "Could it be...?"
boom!
An immense, invisible force pressed her down a few centimeters.
Snapped!
"It hurts..." The little golden fox's bones and flesh were shattered, and blood flowed freely. It couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Qianye was furious: "I'm asking you, where's the inner core!"
Gu Susu raised her eyes, suppressing her discomfort: "Your Majesty will no longer need to worry."
She only realized it now after several days of not being picked.
Since transforming into human form with the nameless koi, the little white fox's inner core has been linked to luck.
The spiritual essence of heaven and earth will automatically transform into fortune, which is indicated by the size of the inner elixir.
If the inner core exists, Gu Susu will not encounter any danger.
On the contrary, it was only because the inner core didn't exist that His Majesty stumbled upon it...
Qianye stared at her angrily: "What did you say?"
"That's my inner core, the inner core of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom!"
"correct……"
She suddenly remembered something and chuckled softly: "Is it that human boy?"
"If it weren't for the Confucian scholar that day, we could have gotten rid of him."
"Did he feed you the pills that caused you to take human form and affect your inner core?"
Gu Susu's eyes widened, ignoring the pain, and she kicked her long, black-stockinged legs fiercely: "Mom, don't hurt him!"
Bang!
The immense force slammed her against the wall again.
Qianye's eyes were icy: "Call him Your Majesty."
Gu Su said with difficulty, "Your Majesty."
"Hmph." Qianye lifted her chin. "You've transformed, yet you still look so pathetic."
"What did that human brat do to make you, a nobody with no future prospects, take human form so early?"
"I'd like to see."
Gu Susu straightened up, and a hint of strength appeared in her weak eyes: "You must not harm my benefactor!"
Although they only spent three days together, that child was his benefactor…
He possessed boundless supernatural abilities and was aware of the peculiarity of his own constitution.
Yet his eyes were pure, without a trace of greed.
There will be no blame regardless of whether I repay the kindness or not.
Gu Susu would never allow such a good person to be harmed!
Bang!
With just one look, Qianye extinguished the little clown's lofty ambitions.
She smiled gently: "Everyone is willing to sacrifice for the sake of the Demon Kingdom."
Swish!
The two figures vanished, disappearing into the capital city where unauthorized flight was prohibited, as if no one were there.
Even if they brushed past the patrolling soldiers, no one noticed anything amiss!
After an incense stick had burned, the two arrived at the Zhenyuan Marquis's residence.
"Is this it?" Qianye took a deep breath and smiled with satisfaction. "The spiritual energy is plentiful, and this place has some resources. No wonder you don't want to go back."
Gu Susu was covered in blood just moments ago, but now she is completely unharmed.
She cried anxiously, "I...it's not because of spiritual power. Mother...Your Majesty, please go back. I'll cooperate with you to retrieve the elixir, and I believe we can quickly develop a new method!"
Qianye glared at her: "Since we're already here, how can we not take a look?"
"Ha, how unique can a small human family be?"
She descended with a mixture of curiosity and superiority.
It is not easy for demons to transform into human form; the higher the bloodline, the more difficult it is to transform.
Even members of the royal family often maintained their animal forms throughout their lives, and were referred to as divine beasts or demonic beasts by other races.
Qianye didn't quite believe that the human boy could make the little white fox transform into human form.
But even if it wasn't him, there must be some connection.
After all, who can say for sure about matters of fate? It's not impossible that you might just happen to get through a certain point in time.
Qianye came over to investigate, firstly to break Gu Susu's illusions and tell her that this place was quite ordinary.
The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons was once filled with countless wonders; any one of them could shake the Great Qian Dynasty, let alone a Marquis's mansion like this.
Secondly, he wanted to meet that kid.
The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons was destroyed by the human race, but the blame shouldn't be placed on a child.
They certainly wouldn't have gone to the Great Qian Dynasty to harm the son of a marquis.
It would be best to scare Gu Susu a little and make her feel at ease to go back.
If this child has special needs, it would be beneficial to investigate further...
Swish!
The two landed and strolled leisurely around the courtyard.
Even the Divine Guards couldn't detect it, so naturally these ordinary guards...
"Who's there?"
Crash.
The guards on night patrol looked this way, carrying torches.
squeak-
At the same time, the windows of the west wing opened by themselves without any wind.
despair!
despair!
despair!
The courtyard was empty, yet the sound of ethereal footsteps could be heard.
Gu Susu was very nervous.
Afraid of being discovered, yet also afraid of not being discovered!
Qianye frowned slightly and intensified her magic: "We've been discovered?"
The guard cautiously approached, and after examining the area, shook his head: "It's probably just the wind."
Gu Susu let out a complicated sigh.
Qianye said calmly, "Don't do anything stupid."
"This is the heartland of the human race. If we are discovered, we will have to kill everyone."
Gu Susu lowered her head: "Understood, Your Majesty."
"Did these servants really discover it, or was it just a coincidence?" Qianye pondered, then took another breath and strolled forward. "It is indeed a bit peculiar, but compared to the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom..."
Her eyes suddenly widened: "What is this?"
"Ice Spirit Spring?!"
Before me lay a spring of water, radiating an astonishing spiritual power!
The spring water exudes a faint, cold mist, and strange phenomena are vaguely visible in the hazy atmosphere.
Qianye finally understood where the abundant spiritual energy permeating the air came from.
Just standing to the side, smelling the slightly cool air, I felt refreshed.
The toxins and waste accumulated in the body through daily metabolism are also being broken down little by little.
"Such a wondrous object is simply displayed in the courtyard?"
Qianye was extremely surprised: "Aren't they afraid of being robbed?"
She hurried forward to fetch water.
hiss!
Qianye suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, and goosebumps rose on her smooth back.
"Who?" She turned her head sharply, but saw nothing.
Yet that chilling feeling, like a bone-deep infection, still lingered in my heart.
"Who? Who is watching me?"
"Imperial Advisor? Supervisor? Or Grand Marshal?"
"No...they couldn't possibly have seen through my movements."
"Who else could it be? Who has the ability to make my heart pound?"
Qianye felt a chill run down her spine.
Who could make the Demon Queen of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, a dignified Quasi-Saint, feel a bone-chilling cold?
She looked at the spring water, hesitated for a moment, then took out a spiritual herb and placed it on the ground.
Then, with a gentle scoop of lotus root, the feeling of palpitations disappeared.
"Heh." Qianye found it amusing. "When did I start charging for taking things?"
Her eyes became wary.
This Su family mansion seems to be more complex than I imagined.
Qianye gazes lightly at the spring water under the moon; its clear, transparent surface is shrouded in a misty haze.
Like the wind on the highest snow-capped mountain, fierce yet transcendent.
She only glanced at it before swallowing it.
"Ugh!" Qianye's eyes widened suddenly, her expression filled with horror.
"It's not the Ice Spirit Spring!"
There is an Ice Spirit Spring at the former site of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, which can purify blood, expel toxins, and eliminate fatigue.
Each year, only a small amount of spring water could be drawn by the royal family for use as a reward.
Every drop of water was highly valued and regarded as the most important gift from the royal family.
I only drink it when entertaining important guests or when I achieve a breakthrough in my spiritual practice.
But now...
"Could it be... the Pure Jade Spring?!"
