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

"lie!"

Qi Mo coldly interrupted Ge Baofang, and the air in the room seemed to freeze, pressing down on Ge Baofang!

He raised a hand towards the back of Ge Baofang's head and said coldly, "Since you refuse to talk, I'll have no choice but to search your soul!"

Soul search!

Ge Baofang's pupils contracted. Once his soul was searched, no matter what happened in the secret realm, he would be exposed. Not only would he be exposed, but after the soul search ended, all his meridians would be broken and his cultivation would be completely ruined. He absolutely could not be searched!

Judging from the current situation, whether he speaks or not, whether his soul is searched or not, his only fate is death!

Rather than waiting to die, it's better to take a gamble.

Ge Baofang gritted his teeth, and a tiny bead rolled out from his sleeve. Qi Mo also channeled his spiritual power, about to press down on Ge Baofang.

"boom--"

A loud explosion rang out, and Fuling Yue was stunned. In that instant, the person under his blade was silently taken away by a shadow.

"Discovered."

Qi Mo raised his hand and waved it, suppressing the surrounding dust and smoke, while the Situ family's side room was blasted into ruins.

Fuling Yue coughed twice, her brows furrowing: "What do we do now? Ge Baofang refuses to say anything, and after he escapes, he'll probably pin all the blame on me."

Have you ever heard of five words?

"Huh? What five words?"

"It's better to strike first than to strike first."

Qi Mo uttered five words indifferently, glanced at the people rushing towards them, raised his hand and grabbed Fu Lingyue by the back of her collar, and with a swift movement, fled away!

As Fuling Yue was being lifted up, a look of sudden realization appeared on his face. Ge Baofang would push everything onto him, so naturally he could also make up a story.

Everyone tends to be prejudiced and tends to believe the first person who says it.

Therefore, if Ge Baofang dares to show his face this time, Fuling Yue and Qi Mo will be the first to come knocking on his door.

Feng Jiutian's situation in the secret realm was too dangerous, so they had to be more careful. There were still demons in Xixuan Imperial City. Qi Mo wanted to stay for two more days until he found out the relationship between the demons in the secret realm and the demons in Xixuan Imperial City!

……

at this time.

The person being targeted, Feng Jiutian, was locked in combat with a demonic beast.

After a while.

"puff!"

Feng Jiutian was once again knocked to the ground by the demonic python. After rolling twice on the ground, she spat out a mouthful of blood and breathed heavily. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, sat up, and began to regulate the spiritual energy in her body.

The demonic python stopped moving, its violent aura softened, and its massive body slowly shrank, sliding to Feng Jiutian's side while hissing.

This demonic python was not contracted by Feng Jiutian; it was a demonic snake tamed by the contract secret technique within Feng Jiutian's body. Not only did it not attack Feng Jiutian, it also followed Feng Jiutian all the way. Its strength was not weak either, around the eighth level.

When Feng Jiutian fought it, she used martial arts skills. Using fire element was actually more effective against the demonic python, but Feng Jiutian preferred to hone her fighting spirit.

With Xuanjizi's help, she had experienced the feeling of being a god, and the feeling of trampling everyone under her feet was wonderful.

Therefore, Feng Jiutian decided to cultivate even more frantically, for the sake of the sleeping Xuanji Zi, and even more so for himself!

She refused to be used as a stepping stone by others any longer; she was determined to defeat them all!

As for the black-robed man in the secret realm, Feng Jiutian didn't know if he was still there. When she was awake, there was no sign of the black-robed man by her side, but she couldn't rule out the possibility that he was hiding in the shadows.

Feng Jiutian no longer wanted to investigate why a demon of god-level who had been seriously injured would appear in the secret realm.

Now she has only one goal—

Become stronger!

You must be strong enough to protect those you want to protect, and strong enough that no one can underestimate or bully you.

Feng Jiutian seemed somewhat possessed at this moment, and the aura around him made the demonic python feel uneasy, but it could only hiss to remind Feng Jiutian.

The eighth-order demonic python couldn't speak for some reason, which Feng Jiutian couldn't understand. But since the demonic python was willing to follow, Feng Jiutian wouldn't deliberately drive it away.

In the following days, Feng Jiutian frantically trained in martial arts techniques. Not only that, she also used the spiritual herbs in the secret realm to frantically refine pills.

As Feng Jiutian's spiritual power accumulated more and more, she showed no signs of advancing in her cultivation.

Feng Jiutian couldn't figure it out, nor did she want to.

Until one day.

Feng Jiutian searched through all the spiritual herbs in the secret realm and returned to the place where the teleportation array had appeared. The traces of that place had been almost completely erased, and the teleportation array was gone.

Feng Jiutian frowned and said in a low voice, "Does it really mean we have to wait ten years?"

Without a teleportation array, she cannot leave the secret realm. If she cannot leave, it will be difficult for her to improve her cultivation level using only the things in the secret realm.

It wasn't that the items in the secret realm weren't good enough, but rather that she needed more direct help.

There were neither medicines to repair the soul nor any secret manuals for her to comprehend in the secret realm, so staying here would only be a waste of time.

However, Feng Jiutian still couldn't find a way out.

A silent sigh.

She wandered to the canyon entrance where the mist demon had appeared that day. The mist demon was dead, so the mist at the canyon entrance had long since disappeared.

Feng Jiutian entered the canyon without incident, but as soon as he entered, he was met with a sinister aura.

She frowned, completely shutting off her senses. Only after she could no longer smell the nauseating odor did Feng Jiu continue walking inside.

The canyon was littered with skeletons.

All of them were weathered bones, some of the skeletons had been blown apart and lay scattered to the side.

After walking for nearly fifty meters, Feng Jiutian had already seen almost a hundred skeletons.

This is all...

Did the man in the black robe make it?

Feng Jiutian frowned, sensing something amiss. The secret realm only opens once every ten years, and each time only members of the royal family can enter. This time, the exception was only because they were searching for Ling Xuzi, and there were only ten people in total.

Ordinary members of the royal family rarely enter the secret realm more than ten times at a time. The royal family already has few members, and even fewer elites. Only a handful of outstanding individuals enter the secret realm once every ten years, and the number fluctuates. They are by no means ordinary people.

But what do these skulls represent?

In just fifty meters, more than a hundred people died in the secret realm.

This means that the man in black robes has been hiding in the secret realm for hundreds of years! It's even possible that he existed there long before the gods created this secret realm!

Feng Jiutian toured the secret realm and found no ninth-tier magical beasts. The highest tier was only eighth-tier, but there weren't many. Two immortal masters could defeat them together, and even if they couldn't defeat them, escaping would be no problem at all.
