Hell, run away, the little milk baby is coming to the underworld again.

The criminal had no choice but to obediently follow Xiao Yanbao to the side.

"Little one, ask me anything you want to know. I'll tell you everything I know."

"What are you calling me? You really don't know who's in charge here. Call me Boss."

Criminal: Even if there is a boss here, it should be Young Master Huo, right?

So he didn't want to call out.

"My name is Yan Bao, you can just call me Yan Bao."

"Hey, Yanbao." This time, the criminal answered quite readily.

The flute demon was somewhat dissatisfied.

This demon still hasn't quite grasped the situation and doesn't realize how powerful its master is.

However, Xiao Yanbao didn't let Di Mo say anything more.

Let's get down to business; what we call each other is irrelevant.

Besides, her real name is Yanbao, and she likes people calling her by her name.

"Do you know if the Great Protector has any other places where people can hide? Places that are more secluded and safer than the Nine Locks Hall. Places that no one but the Great Protector knows about."

Demonic criminal: You said it yourself, there's no one else who knows this place except the Great Protector, so where else could he possibly find out?

If the place he mentioned isn't the right place, then why mention it at all?

So the criminal grinned but didn't say anything.

After asking the question, Xiao Yanbao realized that her question was problematic.

"Then let's put it another way: is there an even more secluded place, a place that no one but the Great Protector can enter?"

This time, the demonic criminal shook his head. If such a place existed, would the Great Protector still have imprisoned the human he captured in the Nine Locks Hall?

The Nine Locks Hall was the most secretive place he knew for imprisoning prisoners.

Xiao Yanbao was unwilling to give up, "Think about it again."

"Yanbao, I want to ask, has anyone else been arrested by the Great Protector?"

Xiao Yanbao neither denied nor admitted it.

"Just answer my questions."

"I really didn't know such a place existed."

When Xiao Yanbao saw that the criminal genuinely didn't know, he stopped asking.

"Do you really think your palace master is dead?"

The criminal gave Xiao Yanbao a meaningful look. "Yanbao, do you know something?"

"I don't know, I'm asking you."

"The Palace Master eloped with a human back then, but was later captured and brought back. However, after being captured, the Palace Master committed suicide. This is something that everyone in the Demon Realm knows."

"You witnessed the Palace Master committing suicide with your own eyes?"

The criminal nodded. "Yes."

This was completely unexpected for Xiao Yanbao.

"So you're sure the Palace Master is really dead?"

"When we saw it, the Palace Master only had one Demon Orb left, so the Palace Master must be dead."

Xiao Yanbao looked at the criminal, not understanding what the criminal meant by being so sure.

The demon continued to explain, "The demon pearl is the lifeblood of a demon, especially for demons with higher cultivation levels. The higher the demon pearl's value, the more important it is. Once the demon pearl leaves the demon's body, the demon's body will quickly vanish into nothingness."

"Then how can you be sure that the demonic pearl is the Demon Cloud Palace Master's demonic pearl? Also, can't a demon have two demonic pearls?"

The criminal stared at Xiao Yanbao as if he had heard something unbelievable.

Ignorance truly breeds fearlessness.

How could Yan Bao dare to think of such a thing?

It's already difficult enough to cultivate one magic bead to perfection, let alone two.

"Impossible, that's impossible. There has never been a demon in the Demon Realm with two demon orbs."

But Xiao Yanbao still felt that the master of the Demon Cloud Palace was not dead.

"What happens to the Demon Orb after the demon dies?"

"Go to feed the flowers and plants of the Demon Realm. Of course, the Palace Master's Demon Pearl will not be disposed of in this way. It will be buried in the Demon Tomb, which is where the Palace Masters of the Demon Cloud Palace are buried."

Xiao Yanbao: Demon Tomb?

"Where is the Demon Tomb? Can we go take a look?"

"Don't know? Apart from the Great Protector, no other demon knows that place. In the Demon Realm, only the Palace Master and the Great Protector know where the Demon Tomb is."

“I just asked you if there were any places that only the Great Protector knew about or could enter, and you said no. How come they've appeared now?”

"Didn't you just ask about the place where people are imprisoned? But that's where the Demon Orb is buried."

"Who said that people can't hide in the place where the Demon Orb is buried?"

Humans can live in imperial tombs in the human world, so why can't demons hide in demon tombs in the demon realm?

The criminal was stumped by Xiao Yanbao's question.

"This this……"

The criminal hesitated for a long time before finally managing to refute Xiao Yanbao's words.

"Even if the Great Protector hid someone in that place, no one else knows where the Demon Tomb is located except for the Great Protector."

Xiao Yanbao felt that since this place existed, it was impossible that only the Great Protector knew about it.

The only problem is that we don't know who that demon is yet.

"How is the position of Grand Protector or Palace Master of Demon Cloud Palace passed down to the next generation?"

"Naturally, it was passed down through the magic mirror."

"So that means we can find the Demon Tomb with the magic mirror of the Palace Master or the Great Protector?"

"That's the principle, but the Palace Master is no longer here, and nobody knows where the Magic Mirror is. The Great Protector's Magic Mirror is on him. Can we really steal it?"

Little Yanbao was no longer listening to the criminal continue.

He ran straight towards Huo Lichuan.

Criminal: What are we doing here?

Are they really planning to steal the Great Protector's magic mirror?

Isn't that seeking death?

Huo Lichuan was listening to several criminals tell him about his mother.

Before Huo Lichuan awakened his memories of the demon race, he had very few memories of his mother.

No one mentioned his mother to him.

So he wanted to learn more about his mother.

Xiao Yanbao ran to Huo Lichuan's side, grabbed him, and left.

The criminal became even more certain that Xiao Yanbao was going to steal the Great Protector's magic mirror.

"We can't go, we can't go! The Great Protector's magic mirror isn't something that can be easily stolen. Yanbao, you can't drag Young Master Huo to his death."

They finally found someone they could help rise to power, and they absolutely couldn't let Yan Bao ruin that.

Xiao Yanbao ignored the howling and wailing of the criminals behind her.

A soundproof talisman was thrown next to him and Huo Lichuan, and the noise immediately subsided.

When the criminals saw that Xiao Yanbao wasn't pulling Huo Lichuan along, they stopped chasing.

"Brother Huo, Brother Huo, quickly check if there's a Demon Tomb inside your ring?"

"The Demon Tomb? What Demon Tomb? Sister Yanbao, don't rush, tell me slowly."

"It's the Demon Tomb. Quickly check your magic mirror to see if it's there. I suspect your mother is imprisoned in that place."

Huo Lichuan: If that's the case, then we really can't delay.

Huo Lichuan sensed it in his mind.

His magic mirror, however, did not require him to use his heart's blood to open it each time he used it.

As soon as I sensed it in my mind, an image appeared in the magic mirror on the ring.

The flute demon arrived just a little too late and was left outside the antiphonal notes.

Unable to hear what his master was saying to Huo Lichuan, he scratched his head in frustration.
