I'm just an assistant, I don't save people

Chapter 312 The Demon King Appears

"Fortunately, you came in time." Xiao He saw that she was safe and quickly took a pill to regulate her breathing.

Su Jing wiped the mud off his face and gasped for breath. "We were guided here by the resonance bracelet. Duan Kang noticed something was wrong. We wanted to turn back, but suddenly we were controlled by a black evil creature and were chased by a monster."

Lin Yan seemed to be thinking about something, and reached out to take out a water talisman to wash the mud off their bodies.

Lu Li tilted his head to pour out the water from his ears, then jumped up and asked in confusion, "Lin Yan, we've only managed to hold on until now thanks to our captain's attributes. How come you can fly freely without any monsters attacking you?"

Xiao He is a messenger of the Holy Land. She has awakened the light attribute and can fight against evil spirits.

Lin Yan pointed to the umbrella above him and said, "This umbrella is a high-level spiritual weapon. It can ward off evil and block the rain."

"Disaster Rain?" Duan Kang suddenly realized, his eyes lighting up. "So that's why. I finally understand why my horoscope didn't work after entering here."

Mo Yu asked, "Can your formation get out?"

"No, there's something wrong with the magnetic field here. The space is disordered and I can't find a place to land."

Pei Yunqi glanced at Mo Yu and said, "Same as you."

Lu Li looked at everyone and said, "We have wasted an hour here. We are running out of time. We must get out. The only thing that knows the way out is the evil creature. We need to find a way to catch it."

"Yeah." Lin Yan nodded. This was exactly what she meant. "The teleportation array doesn't work, but my tracking array still works."

Then, Lin Yan led the team to chase in the direction of the black shadow.

Slowly, the forest environment began to change, the leaves turned black, and poisonous snakes circled.

When he got here, Lin Yan suddenly stopped and hovered in the air.

Xiao He was alert to her surroundings and asked through voice transmission, "What's wrong?"

The other five people consciously lowered their breathing and did not dare to make any sound at this moment.

Lin Yan's eyes revealed confusion. She turned around and looked at Lu Li, asking, "Who are you?"

Xiao He was extremely shocked and turned to look at Lu Li.

Lu Li was surprised and asked, "What did you say?"

The others looked back and forth between Lin Yan and Lu Li.

Lin Yan affirmed, "I said you're not Lu Li. I just saw you turn your head. You probably don't understand the anatomy of a living person. If the body doesn't move, the head can't turn around and come back again."

She was extremely surprised and couldn't believe it when she received the feedback from the tracking array.

At that moment, for a split second, I thought I was seeing things.

At the same time, Xiaolan and Shi Lingyao didn't smell anything wrong.

Even if the tracking array is disturbed, it is impossible to transmit non-existent images back.

Su Jinghao blinked his eyes wide and looked at Lu Li carefully, "Really?"

Duan Kang asked, "Lu Li was at the back, we didn't see him. Lin Yan, are you sure?"

Lin Yan nodded.

"That's strange," Duan Kang said, looking at his own horoscope. "My horoscope shows that he is not an enemy."

Lin Yan said, "That's why I find it strange. You don't intend to kill us, but it's not Lu Li. So where is the real Lu Li?"

Lu Li laughed and said, "Hahaha, you're really perceptive. I'm indeed not that human child, but don't worry, he's watching you somewhere else."

Xiao He stared at him coldly: "Did you kill him?"

"No, I'm not interested in killing children. I'm more curious about you, Lin Yan." Lu Li looked at her. "You don't smell human, but I have a familiar feeling about you, as if I've smelled it somewhere a long, long time ago."

"Me?" Lin Yan asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, but are you...really a human?"

Lin Yan was surprised and said, "Ah? I'm not a human, so what else could I be? A demon?"

Lu Li shook his head: "No, it's not a monster, nor a demon or ghost. Maybe I'm overthinking it. If you are from that noble race, how could you be so fragile?"

Lin Yan was confused, which reminded her of the flower slave she met when she was picking magical herbs in the forbidden area.

That flower slave Luo Yu once said that the smell on her body was not like that of a human.

At first she thought it was because she had been with Shi Jing for too long and there was a bad aura around her, so she couldn't tell the difference, but it seemed that wasn't it.

Lin Yan guessed the other party's identity at this moment and asked boldly, "What race are you talking about?"

"The Dragon Clan Secret Realm will reopen in two years, and you'll be able to see it soon," he said with a smile, looking down at the Stone Spirit Monster hugging Lin Yan's thigh, "Don't worry, I can pretend I haven't seen you."

After saying this, he disappeared in a flash.

The Stone Spirit Demon was stunned and reacted instantly, "Your Highness the Demon King!!!"

Everyone except Lin Yan: "!!!"

Lin Yan rubbed his eyes and sighed: "It seems that Xiao Ye is right, the Demon King is not simple."

Xiao He quickly gave the order: "Catch the evil creature first and get out. Lin Yan, quickly determine the location."

"Yeah." Lin Yan nodded, turned around and flew over a snake forest.

In the sky not far away.

Lu Li sat cross-legged, with his right hand resting on his knee and supporting his chin, looking at the few people with boredom.

I'm trapped here, I can't get out, and no one can hear me when I scream.

"But seeing Pei Yunqi and Mo Yu eating dirt makes me feel better. It's a pity that you're not here, Xiao Tang."

Lu Li was feeling bored when he suddenly felt something empty under his butt and was overwhelmed by a strong sense of weightlessness.

"I rely on!"

He free-falls from the sky...

When I looked up, I saw two shadows appearing where I had just been sitting, and they were quickly covered by clouds.

"Your Highness, why did you let these humans go?"

The Demon King looked at the figures in the Rain Forest and said, "Even though you know I'm most suspicious of you right now, you still brazenly tell me that those humans deserve to die. I won't keep them. Do you think I believe you?"

Jueran said calmly: "Your Highness, Jueran is only making suggestions that are beneficial to the demon race, and he has no other intentions."

"Haha." The Demon King turned around and sneered, "Without me going to look for the red light today, Yan Luo would have rashly entered the water forest and would have died without a place to hide."

He knelt down without changing his expression.

"Absolutely. I really like your viciousness, because the Demon King needs a demon of all evil to highlight its greatness."

The Demon King stared into his eyes. "You are very smart and evil enough, but even a frail human like Lin Yan can see through my disguise. Why can't you see through it even though you've been following me all this time?"

A trace of fear flashed in Jueran's eyes, "Young Prince, I..."

He had been with the Demon King for many years and knew best that the Demon King had murderous intentions at this moment.

"Absolutely. In this position, besides having your hands stained with blood, you must also understand the thoughts of the superiors, otherwise you can be replaced at any time." The Demon King looked down at the people under his feet, "Do you understand?"

Jue Ran nodded, "I understand."

"Those seven people just now cannot be killed. They will be of great use in the secret realm, especially Lin Yan. She has the scent of the immortal race."

Jueran's eyes were shocked, "Yes."
