After passing through the cannon fodder in the book, my brother turned out to be the male protagonis

Demon Realm

The purple-robed man paced anxiously in the hall filled with a gloomy atmosphere. When he saw his men coming in, he grabbed his collar and asked, "Haven't you found the culprit yet? It's been so long, and you haven't found any clues about the murderer who killed so many of my demons! What use do I have to you!"

The subordinate replied with trembling lips: "Your Majesty, it's not that we didn't work hard, it's that the man was really cunning and wiped out all the traces he could find. It's just that today I got another piece of information."

The man let go of his hand, looked down and asked, "What news?"

"I have found the traitor Pei Hu near Youye Lake."

"Pei Hu?" Hearing this, the man narrowed his eyes dangerously and asked, "He didn't escape to the world of immortal cultivation. Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

The subordinate said confidently: "I have worked under him for many years and will never make a mistake in identifying Pei Hu!"

He thought that his performance would win the master's favor, but he heard a hint of sneer from above his head, and then he felt himself being lifted up again. He looked up and saw the man in front of him with a bloodthirsty smile on his face. His words made him feel cold all over: "You mean you won't recognize the traitor, but you will recognize me as your master?"

"No! No! Your Majesty! Spare my life! Your Majesty——"

The shrill screams echoed in the hall, and the maids around shuddered at the same time. The demon who had been hiding in the dark came out and said, "Qian'er, you shouldn't have killed him."

Wiping the blood off his lips with his fingers, Wang Qian gave the man a wicked smile and said, "Is uncle angry? But you also heard that this loser did not recognize me as his master. Since he does not obey me, he has no value in existence, right? This is what you taught me, uncle."

The man closed his eyes and turned away from him, his tone steady yet dangerous: "If you act like this, it will plant a big hidden danger for us."

Wang Qian walked behind him, slowly leaned his head on his uncle's shoulder, and comforted him like coaxing a child: "No, Qian'er's hands are stained with blood, and our great cause will not fail because of them. Uncle doesn't want to sit in this position and be criticized, so Qian'er will be a puppet demon lord controlled by uncle, so that uncle can always be with Qian'er."

"..." The man tried to escape his touch, but he grabbed his wrist fiercely. Feeling uncomfortable, the man began to become emotionally unstable. He suppressed his anger and said, "You are hysterical again. Someone, help your Majesty go down and rest!"

The maid came up and tried to pull Wang Qian away, but Wang Qian avoided her touch. All they heard was their Majesty saying, "Uncle, sooner or later I will make you unable to leave me."

After that, he turned and left.

The maid raised her eyes and glanced at the man secretly, then caught up with Wang Qian.

"Childish!" The man flicked his sleeves and left the hall.

Fang Jingqiu was dragged out of the city, and Qi Jue finally lifted the silence spell. Fang Jingqiu, who had not spoken for a long time, asked the first question: "Where are you taking me?"

The enchanting woman in front of him returned to her original voice. The rich voice and this skin were indescribably strange. Moreover, Qi Jue raised her orchid finger and said, "Don't worry about where you go. I won't sell you anyway."

Fang Jingqiu frowned at him and said with disgust: "Can you turn into a man before you speak? You are really unbearable to look at now."

Qi Jue snorted and said nonchalantly, "What do you know? Back then, I charmed many cultivators with this appearance. Even the elders of the He Huan Sect wanted to take me in as their disciple. How come you don't appreciate me at all?"

Back then? The “back then” that Qi Jue mentioned must have lasted for a hundred years at least. And who knows whether the elders of the He Huan Sect really want to accept Qi Jue as a disciple, or just use him as a cauldron?

Thinking of this, Fang Jingqiu couldn't help but ask one more question: "By the way, what is your spiritual root?"

"How about having dual spiritual roots of gold and wood? Isn't it amazing?" Qi Jue felt a little proud when talking about this. After all, in the world of immortal cultivation in his time, people with single spiritual roots were very few and double spiritual roots were considered good qualifications, so he subconsciously felt that Fang Jingqiu's qualifications were not as good as his.

Seeing him so proud, Fang Jingqiu raised his eyebrows, as if he had discovered something interesting, and said, "That's really amazing, but——"

Her sudden pause aroused Qi Jue's curiosity, and he couldn't help asking, "But what?"

Fang Jingqiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "But, I have a single spiritual root of the earth element~"

Qi Jue was speechless for a moment, thinking that he deserved to ask this question, which really made her feel uncomfortable.

After being teased, Qi Jue's face was not very good. He pulled Fang Jingqiu up and said, "You have become bolder these days. You even dare to make fun of me."

Fang Jingqiu staggered and almost fell to the ground. She was so angry that her teeth were itching. Just as she was about to open her mouth to curse, she found that her mouth was sealed again.

!!!

Just don't talk about martial arts!

After being dragged by Qi Jue for a few days, Fang Jingqiu cursed him with all the words he could, but it was a pity that Qi Jue didn't hear a word he said.

Walking to the edge of a lake, Fang Jingqiu and Qi Jue boarded a small wooden boat. The closer they got to the center of the lake, the heavier the demonic energy became. Fang Jingqiu guessed that Qi Jue was going to the demon world, but he didn't expect that the entrance to the demon world would be in the center of the lake. Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Qi Jue swing the rowing paddle and dive directly into the lake.

Before Fang Jingqiu could react, something suddenly hit the bottom of the boat. The already unstable boat flipped over, and Fang Jingqiu fell into the lake as expected.

As soon as she entered the lake, Fang Jingqiu felt someone pulling her wrist and pulling her down. The evil energy in the lake tried desperately to get into her body and devour her spiritual power. The spiritual power in her body was frantically resisting the external enemy, and her meridians were stirred by the spiritual energy, causing her unbearable pain.

When they got out of the lake and onto the shore, Qi Jue looked back and saw Fang Jingqiu, then she remembered that it was difficult for her to take even a single step in the demon world with her cultivator body. She gathered the demonic energy in her palms and wanted to turn her into a demon cultivator once and for all. However, she thought that Fuyun would definitely not be happy to be a demon cultivator after getting this body, so she sighed, stuffed a handful of grass into Fang Jingqiu's mouth, and said, "Chew it finely and swallow it, you will feel better."

At this point Fang Jingqiu didn't care whether Qi Jue was lying to him or not. He just chewed the prickly grass bit by bit and swallowed it obediently. He sat there for a while, and when he felt better, he began to look around.

The environment is very different from the world of immortal cultivation. It seems that no living creature can survive here. The land beneath is dry and barren, with dead trees and weeds everywhere. It is no different from the God-forsaken land described in the original book.

However, since she entered the Tianyun Sect, she has rarely encountered events and locations related to "Nine Yuan Gods". The Demon Realm only occasionally popped up in the early stage. When the protagonist Fang Yiqin cultivated to the out-of-body state in the middle stage, he was simply passed over with a sentence "Because of the long-term struggle within the Demon Realm for the position of the Demon Lord, he was destroyed in the world."

It can be said that the Demon World did not play much of a role in the original book, and because people in the immortal cultivation world had never been able to find the entrance to the Demon World, the content about the Demon World came to an abrupt end here.

The protagonist is keen on helping various sects and factions resolve their conflicts and bravely venture into secret realms of opportunity, large and small. He and Mo Xun accidentally step into an unnamed place, which is so desolate that readers jokingly call it "the land abandoned by the gods."
