The Black Lotus Reborn: The Entire Sect Kneels and Begs for My Forgiveness

Seeing Long Jia's worried expression, Ye Yunong was still somewhat puzzled.

She came to the Black Wind Demon Stronghold to find a way to help Long Jiuqing improve her cultivation as soon as possible. Since she hasn't found a way yet, she naturally refuses to leave.

Seeing that Ye Yunong had no intention of leaving, Long Jia earnestly persuaded her,

"Boss, why don't you understand? Do you even know how a demon's power is tested?"

Ye Yunong shook her head.

Long Jia sighed, realizing that the female leader was far too naive.

He didn't know why the female leader had the aura of the dragon leader, but the demon power test was no ordinary test.

"Then tell me how tomorrow's demon power test will be conducted?"

Ye Yunong had her cultivation tested when she was in the Biluo Sect. The Biluo Sect mostly used spiritual energy stone tablets to test cultivation.

I imagine the demon power test should be similar.

Since she can release demonic energy, controlling demonic power is no problem for her either.

"Boss, the demon test is very different from the test for you cultivators."

To put it bluntly, the test for demons is a comparison of demon cores.

Demons of level three or above have the opportunity to develop a demon core.

During the demon power test, the demon directly revealed his demon core.

If you encounter a high-level demon whose strength far surpasses your own, you can directly devour the demon core of the low-level demon.

Demon cores are the most important thing for us demons.

If a demon core is devoured, at best the victim will be controlled, and at worst, all their cultivation will be lost.

Long Jia had once witnessed the Black Bear Demon directly devour the demon cores of several disobedient demons.

Those demons became puppets.

"The demon's core is so important, it's even more important than a cultivator's dantian."

Ye Yunong was secretly alarmed, and also felt somewhat guilty.

She really doesn't appreciate kindness. After Long Jiuqing gave her his demon core, she was worried that Long Jiuqing might have some kind of conspiracy to scheme against her.

Ye Yunong looked at the baby snake, its tongue flicking, wrapped around her finger with a complicated expression.

What would happen if she returned the demon core to Long Jiuqing directly?

Despite having this idea, Ye Yunong dared not try it rashly.

After all, Long Jiuqing is too weak now. So far, apart from being able to sleep a little, Ye Yunong has not seen anything extraordinary about it. She even doubts whether it can swallow her demon core.

"You'd better run. You're just a cultivator, where would you get a demon core?"

Long Jia thought that before the Black Bear Demon suspected the female leader, he should find a way to secretly send her and Boss Long away.

"Actually, before your Boss Long transformed into this form, he entrusted his demon core to me for safekeeping."

As Ye Yunong spoke, she paid attention to the dragon armor's reaction.

If Long Jia showed even the slightest hint of greed, she would immediately unleash the Seven Killings Flag and kill him.

However, if Long Jia did not have any greedy thoughts, then it proves that Long Jia can be trusted.

That's why she trusted Long Jia and joined forces with him to help Long Jiuqing.

Upon hearing this, Long Jia broke out in a cold sweat.

He immediately understood why his boss, Boss Long, had become like this.

His gaze toward Ye Yunong became even more complicated.

Boss Long must be head over heels in love with the female boss, right?

Otherwise, why would he have entrusted even his most precious demon core to the female leader?

Long Jia felt a pang of sadness and let out a long sigh.

Demons are different from humans. Among humans, some powerful cultivators and even emperors have three palaces and six courtyards.

However, for demons, low-level demons mostly seek mates out of reproduction and animal instinct.

But for powerful demons, a mate is unique; once they fall in love, it's for life...

"Boss, this is something only you, me, heaven and earth know."

"Don't say anything more, I'll just see you out."

Since Long Jia has acknowledged Long Jiuqing as his boss, he will be loyal to Long Jiuqing for life.

As he was speaking, he heard voices coming from outside.

"Vice Chieftain, the Chieftain has ordered that Ye Yao is a distinguished guest of our Black Wind Demon Village, and we must take good care of her and not neglect her."

Two demonic beasts were already standing at the entrance.

Long Jia frowned slightly. The black bear demon was indeed worried about Ye Yunong and was now going to put her under house arrest.

"Dragon Armor, it looks like I'm not going anywhere."

Don't worry, since I dared to come, I have a way to get out unscathed.

I came to Black Wind Demon Stronghold mainly to find you.

I wanted to ask you how to help Long Jiuqing cultivate faster.

Ye Yunong thought to herself that it wasn't a long-term solution to keep taking Long Jiuqing with her like this.

"Hey, boss lady, it's not that I don't want to tell you."

To be honest, the cultivation methods of demons are different from those of human cultivators.

Human cultivators rely on talent for cultivation and can cultivate using Dao techniques.

But demons are different; because they belong to a different race, their cultivation methods are also very different.

Boss Long is a snake demon, and his cultivation method is known only to the snake demon clan.

Moreover, the Dragon Boss's bloodline seems to be extraordinary, and the cultivation methods of ordinary snake demons are not suitable for him.

I don't know any snake demons, so I'm afraid I can't help you this time."

Dragon Armor shook his head regretfully.

But then, he remembered something.

"However, the black bear demon might know."

The black bear demon is an old demon.

He wasn't originally from this area; it's said he fled here from elsewhere a hundred years ago.

I think perhaps he knows some snake demons of higher bloodlines from outside."

Although Long Jia didn't know Long Jiuqing's cultivation method, he did tell Ye Yunong a useful piece of information.

Ye Yunong understood; it seemed she would have to stay in the Black Wind Demon Stronghold.

Before she could figure out the true strength of the black bear demon, she had to think of a way to gain its trust.

Ye Yunong temporarily stayed at the Black Wind Demon Village.

On the same day that Ye Yunong moved into the Black Wind Demon Village.

In the market town, Lu Jinxin and Gu Yue had just come down the mountain.

Since Ye Yunong and Meng Qingchen left Qinglian Peak one after another, especially when Ye Yunong left, she almost took away all of Qinglian Peak's cultivation resources. Now, Qinglian Shangren still owes her a debt.

Furthermore, the emperor's side had fallen into a coma and become a living dead, so Qinglian Peak had to use a Qi-gathering array to sustain him every day.

Master Qinglian was detached from worldly affairs, so his disciples had to find a way to raise spirit stones.

Today, at Lu Jinxin's suggestion, the two went to the market to find some tasks and see if they could earn some spirit stones.

Just then, they encountered a caravan that was looking for guards.

The Black Wind Demon Stronghold is rampant and domineering, and its demonic beasts have blocked the vital trade route. The merchants have been lingering in the market for several days.

They searched everywhere for someone who could escort them through the Black Wind Demon Village.

And so, they happened to find Lu Jinxin and Gu Yue, who had come down the mountain to earn spirit stones.
