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

Chapter 335 Who's pulling the strings behind the scenes!

"Old man, are you badly injured?" Feng Jiutian hurriedly asked, "Old man, tell me how I can help you?"

Xuanji Zi did not respond.

"Old man?"

Feng Jiutian called out twice more, but fell silent after discovering that Xuanji Zi was already asleep.

Once again, because of her weakness, she harmed those around her.

After calming down, Feng Jiutian said to Baihu, "Baihu, I'll have to trouble you to repair the old man's soul again."

"I will."

As a contracted beast, the white tiger could sense the heaviness in Feng Jiutian's heart at this moment, and said in a slightly humorous tone, "If the old man doesn't get up, whoever secretly feeds me pills, don't worry, I will do my best to save him!"

Feng Jiutian tugged at the corners of her mouth, but didn't laugh; she wasn't in the mood to laugh.

If you ask why she didn't summon the White Tiger during the battle just now?

The White Tiger over there, though an eighth-order magical beast, is only at the late stage of a human immortal master in terms of strength. Even if the black-robed man is injured, he still cannot defeat it!

Feng Jiutian couldn't very well send the White Tiger out to its death; it probably wouldn't last long against the man in black robes. Rather than summoning it, it was better to let it stay there safely.

It has to be said that Feng Jiutian has placed herself and her contracted beasts on the same level. In her mind, these contracted beasts are all companions, and she will do her best to prevent them from getting hurt.

Now, Jiuyao, Xuanjizi, and Xiaojin have all gone into seclusion and slumber for various reasons.

Feng Jiutian also composed herself and got up to explore other parts of the secret realm. She needed to find a proper place to cultivate in seclusion, as three months was far from enough!

She wants to become stronger!

……

Not long after Qi Mo left the Xixuan Imperial Palace, he heard that another person had come out. He thought it was Feng Jiutian and breathed a sigh of relief, but the news he received was that the entire Xixuan Kingdom was wanted by Feng Jiutian!

Fu Lingyue confirmed it again and again; the wanted person was indeed Feng Jiutian!

The fact that the portraits all depicted Feng Jiutian in disguise relieved Qi Mo, but it was followed by doubt...

What exactly caused this, and who was behind it all, to make Feng Jiutian practically the public enemy of the entire Xixuan Kingdom, and to be wanted on the very day everyone left the secret realm?

Logically speaking, if Feng Jiutian had only killed one person, it would never have caused such a big commotion. Someone must have been pulling the strings behind the scenes!

this person……

who is it?

What is the connection between the demon within the secret realm and the demon within the Xixuan Imperial Palace? If it weren't for someone supporting them, the demon race would never dare to so openly infiltrate the human realm!

Everything was intertwined like a huge mystery, impossible to unravel and tightly entangled.

"There's news!"

Just then, Fuling Yue jumped into the room through the window, slammed a portrait on the table, poured herself a cup of spiritual tea, took a sip, and said, "It's him. This Ge Baofang said that after leaving the secret realm, Feng Jiutian killed everyone except the three of us. And the Situ family happens to have the soul image of Feng Jiutian killing Situ Yashi."

"Of the ten people who entered the secret realm, six were from Xixuan Kingdom. Now, apart from me and Ge Baofang, four of them have died. Those who died were elites from the top families in Xixuan. For the sake of face and to find an outlet for their anger, they will naturally push Feng Jiutian into the limelight, also to vent their anger."

After speaking at length, Fuling Yue exhaled and relaxed his chin, feeling that this was the longest speech he had ever given in his life.

Ugh……

A hint of helplessness flashed across his eyes. He mainly owed Feng Jiutian another favor, and Fuling Yue didn't know how to make it up to him this time.

Fuling Yue was somewhat troubled, so she followed Qi Mo, who had been traveling with Feng Jiutian.

“Ge Baofang”.

Qi Mo tapped his fingers on the table, his face expressionless, head down, seemingly lost in thought.

After a long pause, Qi Mo looked up at Fu Lingyue and heard him say in a calm voice, "I heard you are good at concealment?"

"..."

Fu Lingyue paused in her sipping of the spiritual tea, a sense of unease suddenly rising in her heart.

……

late at night.

During the day, the teleportation array inside the secret chamber of Xixuan Kingdom was inexplicably shut down by some force, causing the waiting people to leave disappointed.

Naturally, Ge Baofang, who was being groomed by the family, was one of the few who survived the secret realm and had already been taken away by the Situ family.

The Ge family is an affiliated family of the Situ family, so it would be easy for the Situ family to take Ge Baofang away.

Ge Baofang was naturally very willing to enter the Situ family with Situ Jie. Once he entered this large family, it would be equivalent to obtaining a large amount of cultivation resources.

Since the Situ family has lost Situ Ya, they will naturally focus on cultivating him!

Looking at the Situ and Ge families, only Ge Baofang is truly capable. If his strength increases significantly in the future, Situ Jie will register him as a direct descendant of the Situ family, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to inherit the position of head of the Situ family.

Ge Baofang had a brilliant plan, but he never expected that he would be visited by uninvited guests in the middle of the night after he had just settled down at the Situ family’s house.

Because he had been interrogated for a long time, Ge Baofang had not yet changed his clothes. As soon as he entered the room, a knife was held to his neck.

"boom."

The door is closed.

"You've got some nerve, daring to speak ill of my benefactor behind his back... How do you want to die?"

Upon hearing that sound and feeling that chilling aura, a name immediately came to Ge Baofang's mind.

Fuling Moon!

Everyone in Xixuan Kingdom had heard of the name of the Twin Blades Lingyue, and Ge Baofang was no exception. Who else could have escaped the Situ family's layers of patrols and entered the country but the Twin Blades Lingyue?

"Please, Young Master Fu, show mercy..."

Ge Baofang swallowed hard and asked cautiously, "Young Master Fu's benefactor... could it be Feng Jiutian?"

However, what Ge Baofang couldn't see was that standing behind him was not only Fuling Yue, but also Qi Mo, dressed in white.

Qi Mo glanced at Ge Baofang, his expression turning cold, a chill flashing in his eyes.

"The blood on his body is from the heavens."

Qi Mo gave Fuling Yue a look, and Fuling Yue understood. She pressed the knife against Ge Baofang's neck down further, and a bloodstain immediately appeared on the blade.

"Tell me! What exactly did you see in the secret realm?!"

Fuling Yue's voice was colder than usual, and the smile he usually wore on his face was gone. He didn't want to smile at someone who could potentially pose a threat to Feng Jiutian.

Ge Baofang's eyelids twitched, and he forced a smile, saying, "No, I didn't see anything. The blood was just accidentally spilled..."
