A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

As it turned out, it really was that simple. When Feng Jiutian took the scroll and left the secret room, he was still in a daze.

That was too... hasty.

However, considering that Gu Luo didn't have earth element in his body, he didn't deliberately cultivate it and just did it casually.

Feng Jiutian's guess was completely correct. Back then, Gu Luo just randomly picked a martial arts manual and threw it in there because he didn't want the hassle, since he didn't have any manuals on earth elements either.

Moreover, he felt that with all five elements (metal, wood, water, and fire) present, the absence of earth seemed incomplete; this earth element stemmed entirely from Gu Luo's obsessive-compulsive disorder.

When Mo Shaoxie saw Feng Jiutian come out, he looked up and asked, "How was it?"

“It’s a bit perverted,” Feng Jiutian replied seriously.

The first fire beast was understandable, the second water elemental was also understandable, but the third wood elemental started to go off-topic, the fourth one involved choosing a dagger and ended up fighting with a dagger, and the fifth one involved burning a swamp, which was really excessive.

Mo Shaoxie had some understanding of his old friend's true nature. Looking at Feng Jiutian, although he still had that expressionless face, he was exuding a cold aura, so he knew that this was not a pleasant experience.

Feng Jiutian thought about the potential hardships ahead, so she decided not to change her clothes and strode forward, urging Mo Shaoxie, "Let's go!"

Mo Shao Xie smiled indulgently. Hmm, the little woman asked him to come along, even though her tone wasn't good. It was rare, and he was a little flattered.

A slightly flattered Xie Shao followed behind Feng Jiutian with a faint, infatuated smile.

Slowly, the two walked into a dark passage.

Feng Jiutian touched the stone wall beside him, feeling some soil, and asked in confusion, "Is this a cave?"

"Yes," Mo Shaoxie replied briefly.

After walking for a while, Feng Jiutian suddenly stopped: "Wait..."

Mo Shaoxie raised an eyebrow at Feng Jiutian, remaining silent. The two listened quietly for a while, when they heard what sounded like a commotion coming from not far away...

A male voice said, "They've been here for half a month, what are they waiting for?"

"Who knows? Those big families and experts are definitely watching and waiting!" another male voice replied dismissively.

"Hey, I've noticed a lot of golden light these past few days. I'm afraid a treasure is about to be born?" a female voice asked.

"Hmph, never mind all that, let's take a look first. What if we find something we like? You know, this is the Guili Forest, it's bound to be full of treasures!"

"Come on, let's go look around!"

"..."

The group of people left quietly.

Feng Jiutian and Mo Shaoxie exchanged a glance, seeing the thoughts in each other's eyes.

Feng Jiutian pointed to the top of his head, and Mo Shaoxie nodded. The two then continued walking along the path.

According to that group of people, the treasure was nearby, and the group seemed to be right above them. In this place, divine sense could not explore everywhere, so they could only follow their senses to explore.

Feng Jiutian and Mo Shaoxie walked slowly, and gradually a red light emanated from the cave entrance ahead. Even from a distance, they could feel a wave of heat before they even got close.

This temperature...

Feng Jiutian quickly condensed a layer of water element beside her to block the heat wave. She looked back at Mo Shaoxie, who was already on guard and gave her a silent smile. Although he was wearing a silver mask, one could still tell how extraordinary his talent was.

However, Feng Jiutian remained unmoved, her face as cold as frost, and turned to continue walking forward.

Mo Shaoxie's smile faded; his little woman... wasn't so easy to please...

Once inside the cave, even though Feng Jiutian was wrapped in a protective layer, he could still feel just how scorching the temperature was!

That's lava!

When Mo Shaoxie saw the lava, his expression turned cold for a moment, but it vanished without a trace in an instant.

The young woman is still here; let her practice.

Almost before Feng Jiutian could react, two fiery dragons, their bodies completely red, flew out of the magma!

No, it's one!

This is... a two-headed dragon!

A two-headed dragon is already a demon, belonging to the category of evil spirits.

Ordinary dragons only have one head. However, some dragons may desire immense power and take a different path, practicing demonic arts and devouring their own kind to generate a second head. Therefore, two-headed dragons are despised by all demons or magical beasts. But it must be admitted that two-headed dragons are very powerful!

Feng Jiutian summoned Xixue and engaged in the first battle with the two-headed dragon, using a feint to probe its strength.

"Boom—" Feng Jiutian narrowly dodged a surge of magma, but the shockwave made her heart ache.

This strength...

It's at least comparable to the mid-stage Immortal Master!

Completely unable to fight any longer, Feng Jiutian knew that if this continued, she would be knocked into the lava and reduced to ashes within ten moves!

So without hesitation, she put away the fine snow and turned to run away!

"Don't be afraid, I'm here for you."

Mo Shaoxie appeared calmly beside Feng Jiutian, pulled her behind him, and faced the two-headed dragon: "My wife, watch how your husband will avenge you."

Feng Jiutian glanced at her and said, "Don't show off."

Mo Shaoxie lowered his head, chuckled softly, and spoke gently in Feng Jiutian's ear: "Is my wife worried about her husband?"

"You're overthinking it," Feng Jiutian replied coldly. She was just afraid that Mo Shaoxie wouldn't be able to defeat the two-headed dragon either, and that they would both fall into the lava and die without leaving a trace.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Mo Shaoxie smiled slightly, raised his eyes to look at the two-headed dragon in mid-air, and said in a slightly cold tone: "I don't like it when someone, or a dragon, looks down on me!"

The words echoed across the open area, and in the echo, an extremely domineering aura spread out, slamming down on the two-headed dragon with intense pressure!

The two-headed dragon initially held the two in contempt, but unexpectedly, the white-clad man suddenly appeared and exuded an aura that terrified it, suppressing it so much that it couldn't even dodge the invisible slap formed from spiritual energy!

With a loud "bang," the two-headed dragon was slammed into the mountainside and became deeply embedded in it!

It was pulled out again by an unknown force, violently thrown down into the lava, then lifted up again, slammed against the wall, and thrown down again...

It's like playing with an insect.

Feng Jiutian had mixed feelings. She hadn't expected Mo Shaoxie's strength to be...so strong?

If a two-headed dragon at the Immortal Master level can be toyed with like this, does that mean its strength surpasses that of a God Venerable? Or has it already broken through to godhood?

A deep sense of admiration for Mo Shaoxie rose in Feng Jiutian's heart, but this admiration vanished without a trace after Mo Shaoxie turned around and said to her, "Wife, are you happy now?"

This guy is still as shameless as ever.

Feng Jiutian suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for the two-headed dragon. He suppressed that subtle emotion, sighed, and walked toward the cave entrance on the other side of the lava river: "Give it a quick death, let's go."
