My Xiuxian painting style is not right

Outside the mansion, the night was thick and the noise was gradually left behind.

Chen Yu looked back at the brightly lit mansion. Flames shot up into the sky and the shouts of killing were deafening, like a pot of boiling porridge, boiling over and over again.

He pulled off the fake beard stuck on his face, threw it to the ground, and couldn't help but spit: "This thing is so sticky!"

Zi Yan's mother, a woman who still had some charm, was now pale and breathing rapidly, and it was obvious that she had not yet recovered from the thrilling scene just now.

She held onto Zi Yan's hand tightly, her eyes filled with fear. Zi Yan supported her mother and looked at Chen Yu worriedly, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start.

Liu Rumei looked calm, as if she had long been accustomed to this kind of life on the edge of a knife.

She brushed her wind-blown hair and looked at Chen Yu with interest, a playful smile on her lips: "I didn't realize, Chen Yu, you're really good at this."

Princess Su Yue said nothing, lowered her head, and her red veil had fallen off at some point, revealing a tearful face.

"Let's find a safe place first." Chen Yu said, pulling Princess Su Yue's hand, and quickly disappeared into the night with the three women.

They ran all the way until they were far away from the demon leader's residence, and then stopped in a secluded forest.

Chen Yu found a relatively dry place and let the three women sit down and rest.

"What should we do now?" Zi Yan was the first to break the silence. She looked at Chen Yu with a hint of anxiety in her eyes. "My father...he will definitely not let us go."

"Don't worry, I won't let him find you." Chen Yu patted Zi Yan's shoulder and said in a firm tone.

"But... the entire Demon Realm is my father's sphere of influence. Where can we escape to?"

Zi Yan's mother said worriedly. She coughed lightly a few times and her face looked even paler.

"Let's go to a place where he can't find us first." Chen Yu said, taking out a map from a worn cloth bag and spreading it on the ground.

"This is something I found on a demon soldier a while ago. It has some hidden locations in the demon realm marked on it."

Chen Yu pointed to a valley on the map and said, "This is Luoxia Valley. It's easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it's quite far from the Magic City. It should be a good hiding place."

Zi Yan and her mother came over and looked carefully at Luoxia Valley on the map.

Liu Rumei also came over, took a look at the map, and then looked at Chen Yu with a hint of inquiry in her eyes: "You seem to be very familiar with the Demon Realm."

Chen Yu smiled and said without explanation, "Let's go, let's go to Luoxia Valley first."

They packed up briefly and continued on their way. Along the way, Chen Yu carefully avoided patrolling demon soldiers. Relying on his familiarity with the map and some small props exchanged from the system, they arrived at Luoxia Valley without any danger.

Luoxia Valley, just as its name suggests, has beautiful scenery and is like a paradise on earth.

The valley is full of towering ancient trees, gurgling streams, singing birds and fragrant flowers, and the air is fresh, forming a sharp contrast with the noisy demonic realm outside.

After finding a cave, Chen Yu let the three women go in to rest, while he set up some simple defensive formations at the entrance of the cave.

Zi Yan's mother leaned against the stone wall of the cave, breathing weakly.

She looked at Chen Yu's busy figure, her eyes full of gratitude.

"Thank you, Master Chen. If it weren't for you, my mother and I might..."

"You're welcome." Chen Yu waved his hand, interrupting her. "It's just a small favor."

"Mr. Chen, what are your plans next?" Zi Yan asked. She looked at Chen Yu with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

Chen Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Once the Demon Clan leader dies, the Demon Realm will inevitably be in chaos. Now is a good opportunity for us to fight back."

When Zi Yan's mother heard this, a gleam in her eyes. "Mr. Chen, you are right.

My father always wanted to unify the Demon Realm. Now that he is dead, the other demon tribes will definitely not miss this opportunity. At that time, the Demon Realm will inevitably fall into chaos.

If we can take advantage of this opportunity…”

"Mom, what you mean is..." Zi Yan seemed to understand her mother's thoughts, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes.

"That's right." Zi Yan's mother nodded. "If we can find the Demon Sword, we can command the entire demon clan. Then..."

"Demon Sword?" Chen Yu was stunned when he heard the name.

He vaguely remembered that this sword seemed to have been mentioned in the original owner's memory.

It is said that this sword is the sacred object of the demon clan and possesses supreme divine power. Only by gaining the recognition of the Demon Sword can one become a true Demon Lord.

"Where is the Demon Sword?" Chen Yu asked.

Zi Yan's mother sighed and said, "The Demon Sword is hidden in the Demon Tomb. Only those with the royal blood of the Demon Clan can enter."

"The bloodline of the demon clan's royal family?" Chen Yu looked at Zi Yan, "You mean..."

Zi Yan nodded and said, "Yes, I am a descendant of the demon royal family and my father's only daughter."

"So, you are the next successor to the Demon Lord?" Chen Yu looked at Zi Yan with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Zi Yan shook her head slightly and said, "I don't want to be a demon king. I just want to rescue my mother, find a quiet place, and live a peaceful life."

"But the Demon Realm is in chaos right now. Even if you don't want to be the Demon Lord, others will force you to be one."

Zi Yan's mother said, "Instead of passively taking a beating, it's better to take the initiative.

As long as we can gain the approval of the Demon Sword, we can command the entire demon clan and quell this chaos."

Chen Yu thought about it and felt that what Zi Yan's mother said made sense. Now that the Demon Clan leader was dead, the Demon Realm was leaderless and would inevitably fall into chaos.

Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it is better to take the initiative and fight for the position of Demon Lord.

"Well, in that case, let's go find the Demon Sword."

Chen Yu said.

"But where is the Demon God's Tomb? And how do we get in?"

Zi Yan asked.

"I know this." Zi Yan's mother said, "The Demon God's Tomb is located in the forbidden area of ​​the Demon Realm - the Death Swamp.

The place is filled with miasma and is full of dangers, so most people dare not get close to it.

Furthermore, the entrance to the Demon God's Tomb is encircled by a powerful barrier that can only be opened by those with the royal bloodline of the Demon Clan."

"Death Swamp..." Chen Yu frowned. He had heard of this place in the original owner's memory. It was said that it was the most dangerous place in the Demon Realm. Even the powerful demons did not dare to set foot there easily.

"It seems that this journey will not be easy." Chen Yu sighed and said.

"Mr. Chen, are you scared?" Liu Rumei looked at Chen Yu with a hint of provocation in her eyes.

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Afraid? When have I, Chen Yu, ever been afraid?"

"That's good." Liu Rumei smiled sweetly, "I thought you'd be scared to death."

Chen Yu rolled his eyes at her and ignored her provocation. He turned to look at Zi Yan and her mother and said, "There's no time to lose. We'll set off for the Death Swamp tomorrow."

Zi Yan and her mother nodded in agreement.

The next morning, Chen Yu and his four companions left Luoxia Valley and headed towards the Death Swamp.

Along the way, they encountered many fleeing demons. The news of the demon leader's death had spread throughout the entire demon realm, and the various demon tribes were eager to make a move, all wanting to fight for the position of Demon Lord.

The Demon Realm fell into chaos, with many heroes vying for supremacy.

Chen Yu and others carefully avoided the demon soldiers and tried their best not to conflict with them.

They passed through dense forests, climbed steep mountains, waded through turbulent rivers, and finally reached the edge of the Death Swamp after a few days.

Standing at the edge of the swamp, a pungent miasma hits you in the face, making you feel dizzy.

The swamp was filled with thick fog and visibility was extremely low. I could only see a few meters away.

From time to time, bursts of strange cries came from the swamp, which made people feel creepy.

"Is this the Death Swamp?" Zi Yan covered her nose with her hands, her face looking a little ugly.

"That's right." Zi Yan's mother nodded. "This place is filled with miasma, poisonous insects and ferocious beasts are rampant. If you're not careful, you'll die here."

"Looks like we need to be careful," Chen Yu said. He took out a few detoxification pills from his bag and gave them to Zi Yan and her mother, as well as Liu Rumei and Princess Su Yue.

"What is this?" Liu Rumei asked curiously, looking at the pill in her hand.

"The detoxification pill can cure all kinds of poisons." Chen Yu explained.

"Oh." Liu Rumei nodded and put the pill into her mouth.

Chen Yu took out a few insect repellent talismans from the cloth bag and stuck them on several people.

After making preparations, Chen Yu and his four companions carefully stepped into the Death Swamp.

The ground of the swamp is very muddy. If you step on it, you will sink halfway into it.

Chen Yu and others walked forward, one step deep and one step shallow, and each step was very difficult.

Suddenly, a huge spider jumped out of the swamp and pounced towards Chen Yu.

This spider is huge, covered with black hair, and has eight eyes that glow green, making it look very scary.

Chen Yu was prepared. He drew out his wooden sword and stabbed the spider in the head.

"Puchi!" The wooden sword pierced the spider's head. The spider let out a shrill scream and fell to the ground.

"So disgusting!" Liu Rumei looked at the spider corpse on the ground and couldn't help but dry heave.

"Be careful, there are poisonous insects and ferocious beasts everywhere here." Chen Yu reminded.

They continued to move forward and encountered all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts along the way, including poisonous snakes, scorpions, centipedes, and various unknown monsters.

Chen Yu used the wooden sword in his hand and various props exchanged by the system to repel them one by one.

As they walked, they came to an open space. In the open space stood an ancient stone tablet with three large characters engraved on it: Demon God's Tomb.

"It seems that we have found the entrance to the Demon God's Tomb." Chen Yu said.
