My Xiuxian painting style is not right

Chen Yu carried the Gatling gun, held Zi Yan in one hand and Zi Yan's mother in the other, and ran wildly on the streets of the Demon Realm Capital.

Bullet casings tinkled to the ground, like a rain of metal.

The demon soldiers fell down in groups like cut wheat.

"Mom, can you hold on?" Zi Yan asked breathlessly.

Zi Yan's mother, a woman named Liu Rumei, had a pale face and chapped lips, but she still tried to force a smile: "Yan'er, I'm fine, don't worry about me."

Chen Yu looked back and saw that the demon soldiers were still chasing them. Leading them was Zi Yan's father, the demon leader - a burly man with a face full of flesh and fierce eyes.

He was holding a huge mace in his hand and roared as he chased after him, "Chen Yu!

"Zi Yan! Stop right there! I will tear you into pieces!"

"Tear into pieces? I'll see who gets to be torn into pieces!" Chen Yu curled his lips in disdain and pulled the trigger again, "Bang, bang, bang!"

The roar of Gatling sounded again, and another wave of demon soldiers fell in a pool of blood.

The demon leader's eyes widened at the sight, but he could do nothing. The Gatling gun was too powerful, and his soldiers couldn't get close.

"Retreat! Retreat first!" The demon leader reluctantly ordered a retreat.

Seeing the demon soldiers retreat, Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down his pace.

"We finally got rid of them." Chen Yu said.

They ran to a woods outside the city and hid in a secluded place.

Liu Rumei leaned weakly against a tree, gasping for breath.

Chen Yu took out a bottle of water from the tattered bag and handed it to her: "Auntie, drink some water."

Liu Rumei took the water and drank it in one gulp, and her complexion looked slightly better.

"Thank you, Chen Yu." Liu Rumei said gratefully.

"You're welcome, Auntie." Chen Yu said, "We are safe now."

Zi Yan looked at her mother's frail appearance and felt distressed: "Mom, are you okay?"

"Mom is fine, Yan'er." Liu Rumei touched Zi Yan's head, "Thanks to Chen Yu, we were able to escape."

"Chen Yu, thank you." Zi Yan also expressed her gratitude to Chen Yu.

"You're welcome, Zi Yan." Chen Yu said, "This is what I should do."

The sky gradually darkened and the woods were silent.

"We have to find a place to rest." Chen Yu said.

"I know a place." Zi Yan said.

Zi Yan brought Chen Yu and her mother to a dilapidated house.

This house is located deep in the woods, very secluded, and few people come here.

Zi Yan pushed open the door of the house and was hit by a musty smell.

The house was empty and the furniture was covered with a thick layer of dust.

"This used to be a hunter's house, but after the hunter moved away, it became deserted."

Zi Yan explained.

Chen Yu nodded and began to clean the dust in the room.

Zi Yan and her mother also helped to clean, and soon the room became much cleaner.

Chen Yu took out some dry food and water from the tattered bag, and the three of them had a simple meal.

"Mom, please tell Chen Yu about Dad." Zi Yan said.

Liu Rumei nodded and began to tell the story.

It turned out that in order to unify the Demon Realm, the Demon leader did not hesitate to marry with other Demon tribes.

He took a fancy to a princess from a neighboring tribe and wanted to marry her.

However, the princess fell in love with an ordinary demon youth.

In order to get the princess, the demon leader framed the young man and threw him into the dungeon.

In order to rescue her lover, the princess agreed to marry the demon leader.

However, the demon leader did not fulfill his promise. Instead, he imprisoned the princess and forced her to submit.

Zi Yan's mother, Liu Rumei, was also imprisoned by the demon leader because she opposed his actions.

"My father is a cold-blooded and heartless man!" Zi Yan said angrily.

"Yan'er, your father is also concerned about the future of the demon clan." Liu Rumei advised.

"Can we sacrifice the happiness of others for the future of the demon clan?"

Zi Yan retorted.

"Oh..." Liu Rumei sighed and said nothing more.

Chen Yu listened quietly without interrupting.

"Chen Yu, can you help me rescue my mother?" Zi Yan suddenly asked.

Chen Yu looked at Zi Yan and nodded: "I will do my best."

"Thank you, Chen Yu." Zi Yan said gratefully.

"The Demon Realm Capital must be under martial law now. We must proceed with caution."

Chen Yu said.

"Yeah." Zi Yan nodded.

"Auntie, do you have any way to help us avoid the search of the demons?"

Chen Yu asked.

Liu Rumei thought for a moment and said, "I have a secret technique of the demon clan that can hide my aura. Perhaps I can avoid being tracked by the demon clan."

"Really? That's great!" Chen Yu said excitedly.

Liu Rumei began to teach Chen Yu the secret techniques of the demon clan.

This secret technique is called "Breath Concealment Technique", which can completely conceal one's own breath, making it difficult for even highly skilled demons to detect it.

Chen Yu followed Liu Rumei to learn the art of concealing his breath and quickly mastered the key points.

"Chen Yu, you are such a genius!" Liu Rumei exclaimed.

"Thank you for the compliment, Auntie." Chen Yu said modestly.

"Now, the most important thing for us is to find out my father's marriage plan."

Zi Yan said, "If we can disrupt this marriage, we can weaken his power."

"That's right." Chen Yu nodded. "Do you know when the wedding will be held?"

Zi Yan shook her head: "I don't know, but I can ask around."

"Okay." Chen Yu said, "I'll go outside and take a look at the situation."

Chen Yu walked out of the house and came to the woods.

He activated the breath-stealing technique to conceal his breath, then walked cautiously towards the Demon Realm Capital.

The gates of the Demon Realm Capital were closed, the city walls were filled with demon soldiers, and the atmosphere was very tense.

Chen Yu hid behind a big tree and observed the situation in the city.

The streets were deserted and all the shops were closed, as if it were a dead city.

Occasionally, a few teams of demon soldiers patrolled by. They all looked very serious and their eyes were vigilantly scanning everything around them.

Chen Yu saw a demon soldier holding a portrait in his hand, and the person in the portrait was exactly himself.

"It seems they have started to hunt me down." Chen Yu thought.

He didn't dare stay for long and turned back to the house.

"How is it? What's the situation outside?" Zi Yan asked.

"The whole city is under martial law, and demon soldiers are everywhere. They are still looking for me."

Chen Yu said.

"Then what should we do?" Zi Yan was a little worried.

"Don't worry, we have the Breathing Technique, they won't be able to find us."

Chen Yu comforted him, "Hurry up and find out about your father's marriage plan."

"Okay." Zi Yan nodded and left the house.

Chen Yu and Liu Rumei stayed in the house, waiting for news from Zi Yan.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the sky became darker and darker.

Liu Rumei was a little anxious: "Why hasn't Yan'er come back yet? Is there something wrong?"

Chen Yu was also a little worried, but he still comforted her: "Auntie, don't worry, Zi Yan is very smart, she will be fine."

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

Chen Yu and Liu Rumei both became nervous.

"Who?" Chen Yu asked.

"It's me." Zi Yan's voice came from outside the door.

Chen Yu quickly opened the door and pulled Zi Yan in.

"How is it? Have you found out any news?" Chen Yu asked.

Zi Yan nodded and said, "I heard that the wedding will be held in three days at the Demon Clan leader's residence."

"Three days later?" Chen Yu frowned. "Time is a bit tight."

"Yeah." Zi Yan was also a little worried, "What should we do?"

"Don't worry, we still have three days, enough time for us to prepare."

Chen Yu comforted her, "Auntie, the breath-hiding technique you taught me is really useful. I just walked around the city and was not discovered."

"That's good." Liu Rumei breathed a sigh of relief. "We must plan carefully how to disrupt this wedding."

"Yeah." Chen Yu and Zi Yan both nodded.

The three began to discuss countermeasures.

"We can sneak into the wedding and wait for an opportunity to sabotage it," Zi Yan suggested.

"How do we get in?" Chen Yu asked.

"We can pretend to be guests bringing gifts." Zi Yan said.

"That's a good idea." Chen Yu nodded, "But we have to get the invitation."

"Leave the invitations to me," Zi Yan said. "I know some demon nobles and can get them from them."

"Okay." Chen Yu said, "Then we will split up and meet at the city gate in three days."

"Yeah." Zi Yan nodded.

After the three of them finished their discussion, Zi Yan left the house.

Chen Yu and Liu Rumei continued to stay in the house, waiting for the wedding to arrive.
