Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 93 Femme Fatale
Xiao Chen was tied up with ropes thrown by the Scorpion Demon and could not move after seven or eight breaths.

"Host, the C-level control magic weapon Binding Rope has been touched."

"This treasure is extremely soft and can be made longer or shorter. It is extremely flexible. The rope can stretch and retract freely as the person changes. The more the person struggles, the tighter the rope becomes."

"Those bound by this treasure will be restricted in their use of magic power."

Suddenly, a familiar prompt sound was heard, and several lines of golden characters appeared in Xiao Chen's mind.

"Scan and copy?"

"Ok?"

Xiao Chen was stunned. This Scorpion Demon was really afraid that he would run away. Even the rope used to tie him up was a valuable treasure.

"Scan and copy."

"Fusion tongue."

Xiao Chen thought for a moment and gave the order, saying that this rope was indeed good for tying people up and it went well with the tongue.

"Hehe, little sir, Sanniang will take you home right now."

The Scorpion Demon chuckled, lowered his head, and licked Xiao Chen's ear with his long scarlet tongue.

The Scorpion Queen blew gently into Xiao Chen's ear again, and feeling Xiao Chen's whole body shiver, she stood up and laughed heartily with satisfaction.

Afterwards, the Scorpion Demon smiled and lifted the rope, holding Xiao Chen like a chicken. With a "whoosh" sound, he raised a whirlwind, which swept up more than 40 carts of Xiao Chen's refining materials into the air, and went westward without restraint.

"Well, let's take advantage of the situation. I will go to the lair of the Scorpion Demon and look for any traces of Lu Li, Qing Mian, Feng Tao and other demons."

"Find a way to rescue them."

Xiao Chen was secretly calculating in his mind, and then he kept thinking about the escape plan.

The Scorpion Demon must have really been afraid that he would run away, so he used all kinds of tricks. Xiao Chen was stung four or five times by the Scorpion Demon's horse-turning poison stake. Sun Wukong and Tathagata Buddha had never been treated this way.

At this moment, Xiao Chen only felt severe pain all over his body, and he was extremely exhausted. His magic power was completely dissipated and he couldn't mobilize it.

At this time, Xiao Chen's face was yellow and his lips were white. His head was buzzing and his vision was double. Looking at the Scorpion Demon, he felt dizzy and there seemed to be seven or eight people around.

Xiao Chen couldn't help but sigh:
"This Scorpion Demon's horse-turning poison stake is really powerful! No wonder even Tathagata Buddha and Sun Wukong are so scared."

"They are both five poisons. My own five-element poison can also corrode iron and break steel, but it is still far inferior to the Scorpion Demon's Horse-Falling Poison Stake."

Xiao Chen shook his head, bit his tongue hard, and tried to stay awake while enduring the severe pain to think:
"First, find the traces of the monsters like Lu Li, Qing Mian, Feng Tao, etc., fish them out, and then wait for an opportunity to escape."

"As for running, I still have two methods that you can try."

"When you reach this level of cultivation, poisonous creatures will be able to sense the poison you have given them. In order to avoid completely angering this scorpion spirit, let her hit me a few more times."

"First, I will try to use the Precious Lotus Lantern to slowly remove the poison bit by bit. If the Scorpion Demon loosens my grip and I can recover some of my magic power, I will seize the opportunity to swallow up the Deer Power, Green Face, Wind Tao and other monsters in one gulp, and then use the Golden Crow Transformation Technique to escape."

"This method can help me escape, but it seems that this Scorpion Demon is not someone who will suffer any loss. I'm afraid she won't let me down."

"Besides, I can escape the monk but I can't escape the temple. I'm afraid she will come to rob again, or even knock on the door of Silizhai directly."

"Then I won't be able to do this weapon refining business anymore."

"The second method is that I now have the Ruyi Jingu Bang, the Jade Rabbit Medicine Pestle, the Square-Gang Heavenly Painted Halberd, the Sea-Covering Pearl, the Soul-Snatching Pearl, the Mountain-Chopping Axe, the Immortal-Binding Rope... a bunch of magic weapons. I can try to synthesize them into an innate spiritual treasure."

"I know the real name of this scorpion demon. I can combine it into a purple gold red gourd. When the scorpion demon is not prepared, I will call her and once she agrees, I will take it in for her."

"Or I can combine the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle, fuse it with my abdomen, and use the Qiankun technique in my abdomen to let the Scorpion Demon swallow it into the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle. However, although the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle is extremely powerful, it doesn't seem to be very strong. Don't let the Scorpion Demon pierce my stomach, which would be ugly."

"This method may be able to refine this scorpion spirit in one fell swoop."

"But the biggest problem is that there is a high probability of failure in synthesizing an innate spiritual treasure." "I only have one chance, and it's a gamble. If I lose, I may end up with nothing."

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen couldn't help but feel a headache.

His Silizhai had just been established, and his shop had just opened. His weapon-refining power hadn't even started yet, but somehow he had provoked a powerful demon like the Scorpion Spirit? It was really difficult to deal with.

Xiao Chen reflected deeply. It seems that it is not a good thing for a monster to be too handsome when transforming, because his masculinity will be easily coveted by others.

Xiao Chen sighed and said, "In this world, it's not just the beauties who are unlucky, but also the jade trees."

Xiao Chen was poisoned by the horse-reversing poison, and as time went by, the poison spread more and more. He couldn't use the Lotus Lantern to detoxify it, lest the scorpion demon notice it.

This poisonous horse-falling stake is too strong. If he just grinds it off little by little, it seems to be of no use.

Xiao Chen is also a poisonous creature, but he really can't resist her poison.

Xiao Chen's face was yellow and his lips were white, his eyes were black, his head was dizzy, his vision was blurred, and his whole body was numb and painful. He screamed in pain.

For a moment, he was in a trance and began to have wild thoughts:

"However, nothing in the world goes smoothly. A true man can bend and stretch, and those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters."

"Han Xin endured the humiliation of being kicked in the crotch by a common man, and then became the Marquis of Huaiyin, achieving the name of a military genius."

"Gou Jian also slept on firewood and tasted gall, and with 3,000 Yue troops he conquered Wu and avenged his hatred."

"This Scorpion Demon is an extremely infatuated person in the original novel. If we can really subdue her, we can lower our status and eat soft rice. It would not be bad to have such a bodyguard to protect Si Li Zhai."

"When I have mastered the Four Strengths, I will be able to roll around, stand up straight, and straighten my back. Then I will ask the Scorpion Demon to be submissive and wash my feet every day. Isn't that wonderful?"

"Xiao Yan took this route. Before he became powerful, he called Medusa "Queen" all the time, using one trick after another to coax Medusa into obedience and become a bodyguard for the Flame Alliance."

"Medusa waited a long time for the Rongling Pill, but in the end, she got the pregnancy-preserving medicine."

"After Xiao Yan becomes the Flame Emperor, there will be no Queen. Medusa will just be his concubine, Little Cai Lin."

"In the myriad worlds, there are not enough words to write the word 'Xiao'. We are all members of the Xiao family. This is the path that Xiao Yan has taken, and I, Xiao Chen, will take as well."

"As the saying goes, a femme fatale."

"Medusa and the Scorpion. Come to think of it, one plays with snakes and the other plays with scorpions. There's not much difference."

……

The Scorpion Demon created a whirlwind and carried Xiao Chen, heading westwards at will. After a short while, they arrived at a high mountain.

Xiao Chen took a dazed look around. What a huge and strange mountain it was. It was like a dormant poisonous beast, silent and mysterious.

The mountain is towering into the clouds, shrouded in mist, and is daunting to look at. The mountain is also filled with poisonous gas.

The mountain road was winding, steep and rocky. The forest was filled with huge and twisted trees. Their bark was gray-black and extremely hard. Poison vines grew wildly on the trees like poisonous snakes.

The rocks were covered with blonde moss, and some were covered with unknown gray fungi, which looked very ferocious.

Halfway up the mountain, there is a large, eerie cave. The entrance to the cave is like the gate of hell, and it is freezing cold.

At the entrance of the cave, there is an ancient giant tree with long green vines growing on it, lingering around the black cave entrance, like the claws of a poisonous scorpion extending from the cave entrance.

However, the name of this cave is not "Pipa Cave" but "Shadow Cave".

The Scorpion Demon went straight into the cave, but the scene inside the cave was different from that outside.
