Xuwang struggled to get up and go to Tess, but no matter how miraculous the medicine was, it could only save him from near death. It would take some time for him to recover before he could move normally.

Luo Yiyi couldn't bear to see him struggling as if he was about to die, so she walked around in front of him to block his view.

"Brother Vanity! Please tell me what happened to Sister Tess? She looks very bad. How can I save her?"

Xuwang raised his head, and his pupils constricted the moment he saw Luo Yiyi. After a while, he seemed to remember her identity.

"Luo...Yiyi?"

Luo Yiyi squatted down and put her face close to him so that he could see clearly.

"Yes, it's me! Tell me about Sister Tess's situation first! We are still in the enemy's territory. We have to escape quickly, otherwise none of you will be able to escape if we are discovered!"

Knowing the identity of the visitor, Xuwang's vigilance and alertness suddenly relaxed, and he ignored the fact that Luo Yiyi said "you" instead of "us".

"The magic energy in Tess's body has been repeatedly drained, and her magic roots are about to wither! I don't know how to save her! Yiyi, please, please save Tess, I am willing to give everything I have!"

The meaning of the withering of demonic roots and the withering of spiritual roots are completely different.

For cultivators, once their spiritual roots wither, they will completely turn into ordinary people, and their lifespan will naturally be the same as that of ordinary people. However, since their spiritual roots are damaged and their physical condition is extremely poor, their lifespan may be shorter than that of ordinary people, but at least they can still live.

For demon cultivators, it is completely different. The functions of their bodies are all supported by the demon roots and maintained by demon energy. If the demon roots wither completely, the entire demon will be reduced to ashes along with the demon roots.

The consensus in the divine and mortal worlds is that the spirits of the demons are all in the demon roots.

This is also why in the original plot, Qi Gui's strength increased greatly after he got the magic root left by Tess after her death. Because it is not only an increase in strength, but also an enhancement of the soul.

The lover, Vanity, who was a demon, knew the meaning of the withering of the demon roots. At this moment, he was already heartbroken. He was afraid that as soon as Tess left this world, he would leave with her.

But as long as there is a glimmer of hope to save Tess, he will not give up. To him, everything about Tess is more important than himself.

So he subconsciously reached out and grabbed the hem of Luo Yiyi's skirt tightly, begging desperately as if he was grabbing the last piece of driftwood.

Luo Yiyi looked down at the hem of her skirt that was stained with blood because of the vain bloody hand, slowly clenched her fists, and tried hard to suppress the urge in her heart to beat the other party up.

"Brother Xuwang, don't worry, I will save Sister Tess and will never let her get into trouble! So can you let go of my skirt first? I can't move you like this."

A ray of hope burst out from the vain, sad and gray eyes. Hearing this, he quickly let go of her hand. When he saw the hem of her skirt that was dirty from his scratches, a hint of apology flashed through his mind, but it was soon filled with worry again.

"Brother Xuwang, you need to lie down here and wait for your energy to recover. I don't want to have to think about how to take you with me when I run away later."

"I see."

Seeing Xuwang nodded and lay down obediently, but his eyes were always fixed on Tess, Luo Yiyi ignored him, turned around and left the current cage and entered the cage next door.

Luo Yiyi came to the corner of the cage, squatted behind the curled up Tess, and carefully turned her over.

Her eyes widened in surprise and she swallowed a scream with difficulty.

Tess's condition is not only bad, it can even be said to be very bad.

Her long, beautiful silver hair had become sparse, and the color had turned pale and yellowish. The skin on her face was dry and wrinkled, and her whole body was skin and bones, like an ordinary 100-year-old old man.

If it weren't for the familiarity of her facial features, coupled with the false authentication, Luo Yiyi really wouldn't have dared to be sure that this person was the beautiful demon that she had seen at the beginning.

"Woo woo woo! Xiaobai, Xiaobai!"

Luo Bai appeared calm on the surface, but he felt deep down that she was definitely not sad because of Tess. As for why she was sad - he thought it would be better not to ask.

"Xiaobai, what happened to Sister Tess?"

"The demon root is exhausted. There is no hope."

Luo Yiyi blinked, wiped away the tears in her eyes, gently put Tess back on the ground, and stood up and moved closer to Luo Bai.

"Xiaobai, since Sister Tess's magic root dried up due to repeated draining of magic energy, can we just replenish her magic energy to restore her magic root?"

"Normally, magic energy won't work. Forcibly injecting it into her will cause a rejection reaction, and her magic roots will explode on the spot."

"What do you mean by normal demonic energy is not good?"

Luo Bai's ruby-like eyes stared at her calmly: "Don't even think about it."

Luo Yiyi was puzzled: "Why not?"

Luo Bai raised his chin slightly: "Why should I use my magic to save her?"

What responded to him was Luo Yiyi's face that suddenly leaned closer.

Luo Bai could feel the tips of their noses gently touching each other. When Luo Yiyi opened her mouth, her gentle breath brushed gently over his thin lips, making him feel inexplicably itchy. This itch flowed into his heart, causing the demonic energy in his body to boil slightly.

However, when Luo Yiyi opened her mouth, the slightly boiling demonic energy instantly became as quiet as the Dead Sea.

"Xiao Bai, you have to understand one thing. You are mine, so your magic energy is also mine. If I ask you to give a little to Sister Tess, you have to give it away. Do you understand?"

Luo Bai uttered three words calmly: "Are you dreaming?"

Luo Yiyi moved closer again, their noses were pressed together and their lips were just about to touch.

"If you don't listen..."

"how?"

"I will sing in front of you for three days and three nights."

The two of them were in a stalemate for a moment. Luo Bai reached out and grabbed her arm, pushed her away from him, then turned and walked towards Tess who was lying on her back on the ground.

Luo Yiyi's lips slowly curled up into a victorious smile, but she accidentally met Luo Bai's cold eyes. She coughed and covered her face with her sleeves as if to hide it.

Luo Bai retracted his gaze and extended his right hand towards Tess.

Wisps of rich demonic energy overflowed from his fingertips, and after being manipulated, they slowly flowed towards Tess on the ground, and entered her body through her facial features, then reached the demonic root, replenishing the almost exhausted demonic root.

Outside the cage, Tang Wan'er approached Jing Yaoxi and whispered, "Your Majesty, everything has been done."

Watching everything in the cage, Jing Yaoxi's eyes flashed, he opened his folding fan and fanned himself gracefully, then waved to Tang Wan'er.

Tang Wan'er retreated silently, and when she looked at Luo Yiyi again, her expression was full of gloating.

She whispered softly: "Luo Yiyi, I want you to be cursed by everyone and be ruined!"

In the cage, as cold sweat dripped from Luo Bai's forehead, Tess's decadent expression began to return to normal visibly.

Demonic energy - especially the demonic energy of the ancient demon lord, is indeed the best tonic for all demons.

But this does not mean that ordinary demons can use the demonic energy of the ancient demon lord at will, because the demonic energy contains the soul power of the original deity. If low-level demonic energy is contaminated by high-level demonic energy, the result can only be that it will be swallowed up.

Now, although Tess, who has absorbed Luo Bai's evil energy, can return to normal, she will become Luo Bai's "puppet" from now on.

Luo Bai was too lazy to say this and originally disdained to accept Tess, but he and Luo Yiyi had known each other for many years. The two were too familiar with each other to the point that his weak spot was grasped by the other.

He firmly believed that there was no one in this world who could endure Luo Yiyi's evil voice!
