C71 An Easy-to-live Crisis

Hua Hua's face was pale, her heart was beating incessantly, her shoulders were trembling nonstop, and her frail body was swaying in the cold wind. It seemed as if she would be blown down by the ruthless wind at any moment, making her appear weak and helpless. The countless nightmares of terror in the dark night, the invisible force that gripped her tightly in the darkness, making her unable to break free, dragging her back to that eerie world of death. Suddenly, a pair of sinisterly cold hands reached over and grabbed her throat tightly. A wave of sinister laughter resounded from the darkness, and gradually, those hands became tighter and tighter, like a flower about to suffocate. She felt her soul flying out of her body, the sky was spinning and the earth was spinning, and her vision gradually blurred...

Dugu Jiuyi gave her a comforting look, which was filled with love, serenity, and warmth, as if he was telling her: Don't be afraid, we're all here! A year ago, the lonely flowers flowed here, ragged clothes, thin yellow face, bare parts of the legs and feet were cut by thorns, mottled and painful. Those innocent eyes were filled with hostility, fear, sadness, and the rare tears of youth that Dugu Jiu knew must be the tears of poverty and hunger. On that cold winter's day, she fainted outside Yi An's house. She was rescued by Dugu Jiuyi and placed into a warm room. After lying there for three days and three nights, she slowly opened her eyes and saw Dugu Jiuyi's warm and gentle smile.

From that moment on, Dugu Jiuyi decided to leave the flower in Yi An's house and accept her as his adopted daughter. Even though Dugu Jiuyi had guessed her true identity the moment he saved Hua Hua, that was: a lesser demon that had the lowest rank in the world of demons, who could not endure the cruel and dark rule of the world of demons and did not want to become an emotionless and unfaithful tool of murder, who could escape without permission, had to endure the entire chase from the demon realm. Dugu Jiu Yi understood the viciousness of Li Fengxian's methods, killing the fleeing lesser demons as an example.

Ever since he saw the clean, pure, innocent and childish eyes of the flowers, Dugu Jiuyi's heart had suddenly been stirred up by the inexplicable strong fatherly love. Yes, he was already at the age where he could not be tempted. Alone and alone, hanging by his side, he had no attachment or attachment to his feelings. The appearance of the flower ignited the heart of fatherly love that he hadn't felt in a long time. That feeling of helplessness and helplessness sharp pierced into his heart and awakened a similar rough experience from his youth. He secretly made a decision that he must protect this innocent and kind little girl and help her grow up by defending her from the heartless and merciless hunt that came from the Demon World.

At this moment, the sound of swords being unsheathed came from outside. Dugu Jiu recovered from his shock.

"Flower Demon, hurry up and come back with me to the reappearance of the leader," a cold and heartless voice along with a moaning, wailing wind was sent inside, "You ran away from the demon realm on your own, you deserved to die for your crimes, and you still dare to come here and fight back, hurry up and come back with me to your death!"

At this moment, everyone understood the whole story. Yun Jiu Tang's expression was dark as he berated: "This demon realm is too insolent, to actually gather people to capture such a small matter, don't you allow lesser demons to pursue and be free?"

Shen Jingyang was filled with rage, "This Demon World is so rude and presumptuous, I'd like to go out and show them what I can!"

"Brother Shooting Sun, don't be impatient." Li Zongyin took a big stride forward and stopped Shen Jingyang, who was about to rush out. His eyes were filled with hesitation, "The six realms have a common agreement that each realm, when chasing after their fugitives across the border, can move unrestrained and freely. Today, the Demon World's hunt for the Flower Demon, on the surface, is in accordance with the rules of the Six Realms. Even if we want to take action, we need to find a suitable excuse. If we were to act rashly, wouldn't we be giving the Spirit Demon Realm the truth of slandering Supreme Profound? "

Li Zongyin's words were not without reason, causing the angry Shen Jingyang to stop in his tracks.

Dugu Jiuyi murmured, "Young Hero Li's words are not without reason. I've invited all of you here today in order to give everyone a magnificent journey, but who would've thought that it would actually implicate everyone."

"Old Dugu, what are you saying?" The silent Murong Dawn spoke up. He jumped down from his chair, and with his staggering steps, he said, "Now that Yi An is in trouble, how can we just stand and watch without doing anything?" Although the words were resolute, the steps that he took to get to the door of the hall had been retracted.

At this moment, the clamoring of the demons outside Yi An's residence became louder and louder, like a wild horse on the verge of breaking free, who knows what kind of action it would take in the next moment.

Gu Xueluo watched the trembling flowers on the side. The beautiful Nutmeg girl had been mercilessly hunted down, disqualified from being an ordinary person. Even if Flower was born to be a demon, she still had the right to choose her own life. Gu Xueluo walked in front of Hua Hua and tightly held her hands. She whispered to her, "Hua Hua, don't be afraid. With me here, no one will be able to hurt you." With that, she walked out.

Yun Jiu Tang stood in front of her and said, "Miss Xue Luo, you'd better not go to something like this. Your actions are causing a conflict between the immortal and demon worlds." After all, the Demon and Demon Realms are fixed. If the Demon World were to really pursue the matter, then it would be easier for the Demon Ancestor to take control of it. "

All of you are very distinct and bear the heavy responsibility and mission of different worlds. "Shen Zhongyang stepped into the hall and said," I, Shen Zhongyang, have no status or status, and my actions are the most convenient. If the Demon World wants me, they can just look for me. As soon as he said that, he leaped like a wild goose falling to the ground, his figure already jumping several dozen feet away.

Everyone headed for the door, wanting to see what was going on.

Outside of Yi An's residence, the lights and shadows of swords and the sound of thunder could be heard. Shen Yiyang moved as fast as lightning. He didn't even need to summon his hidden bow to instantly kill a few of the Demon Apostles in the lead. The few Spirit Demon disciples staggered up from the snow ground, baring their teeth, they shouted: "Who are you, we are here on orders to capture the fleeing Little Demon, what does it have to do with you! Don't meddle in other people's business! "

"Don't you dare act so atrociously in front of my friends. Get lost before I get angry. If you anger me, don't even think about leaving here alive!"

The demons were like headless flies, madly attacking him. Shen Jingyang roared and soared into the sky. Suddenly, a gust of strong gale swirled and swept up the snow on the ground before flying down. The gale wrapped around the snow and whistled down. It was like invisible hidden weapons had hit the bodies of all the demons. Before the crowd of demons could react, Shen Yushi had already sent out several sharp palm shadows. Wherever they struck, the demons cried out miserably and their blood and weapons scattered all over the ground.

The remaining dozen or so demons blankly stood there. They glanced at each other, raised their swords, and fiercely pounced over. Shen Jingyang backed up a few steps, his upright body suddenly bending down slightly. Stretching out his palms, it was as if he was supporting himself with the force of a hundred thousand jin. "Boom!" A loud sound rang out, and a huge bow appeared in his hands. This was the Dark Hidden Bow!

The rest of his hands moved strongly to move the bowstring. When the bowstring was full of arrows, with a "sou" sound, dozens of beams of misty air flew out, turning into icicles that pierced through the snow and ice, piercing towards the frenzied demons.

In the time it took for half a cup of tea to boil, the previously aggressive crowd of demons were already lying on the ground, their sharp swords scattered on the ground as they twitched in pain.

Shen Tianyang seemed to be in the middle of a battle. He never expected the Demon Lord to be so weak. Just as he was about to attack again, he was stopped by Dugu Jiu.

"It's enough to teach them a lesson. If they were to throw their lives away, another incident might occur."

"Sir, if we don't end their lives at this moment and give the demon realm a warning, they might come back again in the future. At that time, how can Mister handle this?"

"If you kill them now, that would give the Demon World a solid reason to back out. This way, they would have even more of a reason to create trouble again."

The group of demons struggled to get up from the ground and fled away. Before they left, they fiercely spat out a sentence, "Just you wait, as long as the Flower Demon is still hidden in this Yi Residence, we will come back!"

Everyone returned to the hall. Hua Hua still looked terrified as she looked at everyone. This was because during her ten-odd years in the Demon Realm, she had spent her time in an environment that was full of abuse, brutality, strife and savagery. Those ten-odd years of dark and cruel living environment had already been deeply branded in her body, causing her to constantly feel insecure.

Dugu Jiu walked over and gently caressed her face and brushed away the messy hair on her forehead. With a gentle voice, he said, "Hua Hua, don't be afraid. They have all been beaten to a pulp by us. They will never come again."

"Really?" Hua Hua's voice trembled, but the fear in her voice had yet to subside.

"Of course, when has foster father ever lied to Flower? Don't worry, this is your safest home." Hua Hua buried her head into Dugu Jiuyi's chest, and Dugu Jiuyi lightly patted Hua Kui's forehead, a look of pity evident on his face. This was a kind of fatherly love. It was originally the most ordinary and ordinary emotion in the mortal world. When danger arrived, every father would do this to their child.

But now, in the eyes of the crowd, this ordinary fatherly love seemed to be so precious and touching. These few righteous warriors from all walks of life had never seen such deep emotions and sincerity before, and couldn't help but shed tears.

A moment later, Dugu Jiuyi tried his best to calm his emotions. He walked up to the oceanic scroll with a heavy expression and a pair of eyes. The tea on the table was already cold. Dugu Jiu picked it up and unconsciously took a sip. He suddenly felt the cold sensation in his throat.

Yun Jiu Tang looked at Dugu Jiuyi with gratitude in his eyes. "Sir, now that we have this oceanic scroll and the correct guidance, we can directly dive into the deepest parts of the Snow Beast's catacombs. This time, we'll be unable to escape the disaster of the Qiankun Beast."

"Yeah, this scroll can save you a lot of time and effort in your battle with Qiong Qi, but what I'm worried about right now is the whereabouts of the three treasures of Hanhai …"

"Old Dugu, are you talking about the beast spirit, the Twilight Jade, and the Profound Yellow Scripture?!" Murong Yu was extremely excited at the mention of the Great Sea's treasure, his eyes shining with a strange light.

"That's right, these three treasures have been passed down in the world for a long time." Dugu Jiuyi's gaze turned to the distance, and filled the teacup with boiling new water, "The beast spirit is in Qiong Qi's body, it's impossible for it to survive without killing Qiong Qi. According to the legend, it hasn't appeared in the Six Realms for hundreds of years, and I'm afraid it's not in the Great Sea.

Therefore, if we can smoothly kill the Qiong Qi Beast in the Great Sea, we will be able to obtain a beast spirit, "Yun Jiu Tang said faintly, with a calm and relaxed manner, indicating that he was not here for the most precious treasure." Sir, the reason why our team of beasts was able to gather together was not because we wanted to obtain the most precious treasure in the first place, we only wanted to kill Qiong Qi, eliminate this ferocious beast that was a scourge in the six realms, and return to the Six Realms in a peaceful environment. "

"Haha, Young Master Yun, you're overthinking it." Dugu Jiuyi smiled calmly as he looked at Yun Jiuchang with a sincere gaze, "The three great treasures of the Great Sea are competing for them in this world. My humble opinion is that if you all were to find them in the Great Sea, you should bury them in the Great Sea along with the Qiong Qi Beast. Once all of these things have disappeared, there will no longer be any disputes. "

When Yun Jiu Tang heard this, he hurriedly bowed to Dugu Jiu. "So that's what you're trying to do, Mister. Jiu Tang was so stupefied that he didn't hear it. For the sake of some external objects, we will fight to the death for them. If we meet any of these 'precious treasures', we will definitely bury them together with the Qiong Qi Beast and not leave any hidden dangers. "

Murong Yu, who originally wanted to retort, saw the crowd's approval and didn't dare to jump out to oppose, afraid that he would attract the crowd's rebuke and contempt.

At this moment, Shen Jingyang was still very worried. Although he had defeated all the demons with ease and freed Yi Residence from the encirclement, if everyone left, it would be difficult to protect the demons from coming back. What should he do then? By now, all of Dugu Jiuyi's remaining immortal energy had been completely drained away. He would no longer be able to fight back in the face of such a threat, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Yun Jiuchang also noticed Shen Jingyang's worry. He also expected the severity of the problem. The two of them looked at each other and exchanged a look. Yun Jiutang held onto the copper pot of boiling water, filled it to the brim with fresh water for Dugu Jiuyi, and said, "Mr. Dugu, although we've chased away all the monsters today, it seems like they will make a comeback. We need someone to protect them. "We discussed a while ago and decided to leave one person behind to protect Yi Residence until the danger is resolved …"

"Absolutely not! The team was short of manpower, how could they reduce the manpower for a quiet place? This absolutely cannot be! " Dugu Jiu didn't wait for Yun Jiuchang to finish before rejecting his proposal. This was something he definitely could not accept.

The crowd wanted to say something, but Dugu Jiu raised his sleeve and turned his back to them in silence.

After a moment, seeing that no one had a better suggestion, Li Zongyin said, "I do have a suggestion, why don't I, Cyan Bird, send a message to Master Taixuan and have Senior Brother Ning An or Junior Suiyan and the others bring the inner disciples here. This way, when the Demon World sees that the Taixuan realm is all here, it shouldn't be too presumptuous."

"This idea takes only a second. It's good to have more people at critical moments like this." Murong Ming hastily interjected, as if he would be forgotten by the crowd if he still didn't say anything.

Under the current circumstances, there was no better proposal than this. Thus, Li Zongyin immediately sent a letter to Taixuan with his Cyan Bird.

After noon, the sunlight gradually dispersed the haze in the sky, sprinkling onto the snow-covered land. After Yi An and the others recuperated, they once again set out on their journey. With the ancient Wild Sea scroll in hand, they were more confident and continued their journey towards the Great Sea with confidence.
