The Daily Life of a Lazy Author Transmigrating into a Book and Doing Nothing

Fortunately, Ling Qi immediately noticed Bai Ge's dimmed eyes and replied, "Your Excellency, rest assured, my sister's medical skills are the best in the world, so Jin'er will definitely be fine too."

"Really? That's good."

Someone who seems to have been forgotten: ...Hiss, so no one remembers Yu Xianxian by Daming Lake?

It wasn't that everyone had forgotten Yu Xianxian. In fact, as soon as the situation was somewhat under control, Su Zheng told Fu Yan and the others about seeing Yu Xianxian grow black wings.

Upon hearing this, the group's faces all wore complex expressions. Yu Xianxian was no ordinary person; they had known this for a long time, after all, she didn't even have a spiritual root.

But there's no way the other party could have demonic energy on them; they had already thoroughly investigated them before they even joined the immortal sect.

Even if she possessed only a trace of demonic energy, they couldn't possibly miss her.

But Su Zheng had no reason to lie, and Shangguan Huan also said that Yu Xianxian was acting very strangely at the time. Lin Yu had even mentioned it before, and it seemed that Su Jin'er had also mentioned that Yu Xianxian sometimes acted very strangely.

However, none of them thought it was a bad thing, since even Yu Xianxian usually seemed to be acting strangely, and she had been having an attack more than once or twice.

But this incident, coupled with the mysterious appearance of the bronze mirror that seemed to belong to Shen Mengxi, led to an unbelievable yet undeniable fact in everyone's minds—Yu Xianxian had been possessed by the Demon Lord.

In a typical case of possession, the original owner of the body would naturally be annihilated. Moreover, Yu Xianxian was originally a powerless mortal, and she was possessed by the Demon Lord, so it was highly unlikely that she would survive.

"That doesn't make sense. Xianxian, she's just a mortal, how could she be targeted by that great demon? A mortal's body..."

"This is just our speculation, and the truth is still uncertain. But regardless of whether the message on this bronze mirror is true or false, the demons' actions are indeed becoming more and more frequent, and we must be prepared at any time."

As for what preparations to make, the group already knew the answer without Fu Yan needing to say it. If the Demon Lord were truly resurrected, a fierce battle would inevitably await them.

Looking at Fu Yan and Ling Yao with solemn expressions, Ling Qi, who was sitting down, scratched her head in frustration: "Damn it, can't these guys just stay in the Demon Realm and not come out? We can't get in, and we can't fight them, but they have to come out and cause trouble."

"Good and evil are inherently intertwined in the world. If it's not the demons, then it could be someone else."

Hearing this, Ling Qi fell silent, slumped over the table, her brow furrowed so deeply it could trap a fly. "At least their fighting strength is more even," she thought. "What if there's one they can't defeat?"

"In short, we still need to remind our senior brothers to be on guard and not let the demons attack the Immortal Sect while we're away. Haha, it's good that I had Ye Yao stay at the Immortal Sect to guard our senior brothers, so that our senior brothers won't have to face the enemy alone with those disciples. Junior sister, you should also send some disciples back to the Immortal Sect tonight. We've rescued almost everyone, and in a couple of days, my third junior sister and I will be back too."

"Ah."

The immortal sects don't concern themselves with mortal affairs, but they've mobilized so many people this time for two reasons. First, the appearance of the two great protectors of the demon race is a matter concerning the demons, and they can't ignore it. Second, the situation in Linlan is indeed extremely dire; if they hadn't come, there would likely have been far more casualties.

The three had just finished discussing when Su Zheng walked towards them.

"Several immortals."

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister."

After exchanging salutations, Fu Yan, who served as the "diplomatic ambassador" of the immortal sect, spoke first: "I wonder how the matter of Fu Yan entrusting the Prime Minister to take care of the wounded is progressing?"

"This is originally Linlan's own business. Linlan is already extremely grateful for the help from the Immortal Sect. There is no need for Elder Fu to ask for anything. Linlan will never forget the great kindness and virtue of the Immortal Sect. We have no way to repay it, so please accept my bow."

No sooner had Su Zheng finished speaking than Fu Yan swiftly pressed him down as he was about to kneel. At the same time, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that the two people standing next to him had already disappeared.

Fu Yan's lips twitched involuntarily, while the two socially awkward people next to her tried to give Fu Yan a encouraging look, although she didn't get it at all.

"Ahem, Your Excellency, you flatter us. Exorcising demons is the duty of the immortal sect. This time, we failed in our duty, giving the demons an opportunity."

"No, Immortal Master, you flatter us. If it weren't for the Immortal Sect, the Linlan Kingdom would have suffered a much greater loss. Speaking of which, we must thank those young friends for helping us find the demon. I just wonder where they are now? How are they doing?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yan vaguely guessed what was going on and said, "They were injured and are currently recuperating."

"May I go and take a look? After all, they are also benefactors of Linlan."

“That is certainly possible, but I would like to remind the Prime Minister that the Immortal Sect will not interfere in the affairs of any country. If the Prime Minister wants Su Jin’er to return to Linlan, then my senior brother will have no choice but to lose this disciple.”

"Of course I know that."

They were all shrewd people; they could see right through what the other party was up to.

Su Zheng recognized Su Jin'er the moment he saw her. Although a cultivator's appearance changes with practice, and Su Jin'er assumed Su Zheng hadn't recognized her, after more than a decade of acquaintance, how could she not recognize him? However, the people of the immortal sects ignored his mortal ambitions. Having sent her to the sect, he had long since prepared never to see her again. Since Su Jin'er refused to reveal it herself, he would pretend not to know his granddaughter.

Back then, the Empress of Linlan Kingdom, who was also Su Zheng's daughter, committed suicide due to hysteria. At that time, Su Zheng's son, the legendary General Protector of the Nation, had just died in battle, and everyone thought the Empress had done so because of excessive grief.

But now it seems, perhaps the palace had already been invaded by demons. I wonder if the emperor's order for her to send the only princess, Su Jin'er, to the immortal sect was a spur-of-the-moment decision or something he had foreseen.

"Of course, the Immortal Sect is not a heartless place. If family members come to visit, they are naturally welcome."

As Fu Yan spoke, a strange sadness welled up in her heart. The immortal sects did not require their disciples to sever ties with the mortal world, but most disciples, after cultivating for a certain period of time, had no choice but to sever those ties even if they did not want to, let alone those who were already destitute and alone.

Moreover, how long can these seemingly peaceful days last?

"Then thank you very much, Master Fu."

Then, Bai Ge rushed over in a flurry, and was pitifully forced to sit here and chat with several elders.
