Starting as a complete failure, he leads the demon race to sweep across the lower realm.

Finally, Li Yang touched the still sleeping Feng Mo and said, "Mother, take good care of him. He will give you a surprise when he wakes up."

It's just a pity that I'll never be able to pet a colorful cat again.

Ignoring the roars of the ethereal cat in her mind, Li Yang bowed to Rou Sheng and Feng Gong before leaving.

Feng Gong stroked his chin, "This child..."

"You have a good rest, I'm leaving first."

Rou Sheng nodded slightly to Feng Gong, and after everyone left, she lowered her eyes to look at the ethereal cat in her arms.

"Your scent is so familiar."

Li Yang found a place to squat for a while, and soon several shadows overlapped with hers.

The location Li Yang chose is quite peculiar. During the day, sunlight shines through the gaps in the tree roots above, so it's not actually dark down there. Moreover, there's a dragon vein nearby, and the cave is warm in winter and cool in summer thanks to the spiritual energy. Furthermore, it's deep within the Silent Forest, so you can leave whenever you want, since the demon realm is nearby and surrounded by demonic energy, so there's no fear of being discovered by the evil race.

Li Yang looked up and saw four people standing in front of her.

Li Su stroked the head of the gray wolf in his arms, "Li Yang, are you going to participate in the selection of the five major forces?"

Zeng Xu clenched his fists and bumped them together, "You want to go by yourself?"

Mo Yixing scratched his head shyly, "I don't know if you still remember our agreement."

Ji Cang crossed his arms and remained silent.

Li Yang lowered her head and chuckled, then looked up at their faces earnestly, "Want to... come together?"

Li Su and the other two's eyes lit up, and they shouted in unison, "Then we must go together!"

After saying that, the group looked at each other and laughed for a long time.

Mo Yixing suddenly raised his hand cautiously, "It's just that our cultivation level hasn't reached the Spirit King level yet, so your royal family's two spots might have to be given to us."

Zeng Xu immediately raised his hand, "We're not going to be useless! We'll participate in the selection with you first. If we're eliminated in the cultivation test, we'll use our get-out-of-jail-free card, hehe!"

Li Yang leaned against the wall to stand up, then pulled out a bottle of pills. "Don't worry, I've prepared them for you. You two can go back and take them now, and we'll set off tomorrow."

Ji Cang suddenly said, "So fast?"

Li Yang glanced at him, and Ji Cang turned his face away somewhat awkwardly. "Why don't you look in the mirror and see your face? I'm afraid you won't be able to walk two steps before you collapse."

Li Yang rolled her eyes. "I'm just looking at you because I'm weak. Do you want to fight me?"

Ji Cang coughed twice. "You three go back first. I have something to do and I'm taking that brat away for a bit."

"What?"

Ji Cang glanced at her. "Just follow me. I'm not selling you out!"

"I can't sell many kilograms of meat either..."

Li Yang touched his lower back and down. No one had told him that the aftereffects of losing his tail were so strong. His butt was still burning with pain!

Shiratori even told her to stay in bed for a couple more days. Hilarious! Was it that she didn't want to? She was in so much pain she couldn't sleep at all!

"Your honor."

Li Yang realized she was no longer in a cave when she heard the sound; the glaring sunlight told her that this was no longer the cave.

Why did that arrogant guy bring her out?

Ji Cang turned his body to the side. "Why are you hiding behind me? Come here, I brought you something."

“Oh,” Li Yang stepped forward. Standing opposite her were a group of people dressed in the same tight-fitting clothes as Gui Luo, and several familiar faces she had seen at Tianwai Tower last time.

Several men threw the large bundles they were carrying on their backs onto the ground. "Princess, these are the medicinal herbs His Majesty ordered us to collect for you. See if there's anything else you want, and we'll go and snatch it for you... get it back!"

Li Yang looked at the three or four packages that were even bigger than herself, and her lips twitched slightly. "Ji Cang, what do you mean by this?"

Ji Cang glared at Gui Li, thinking, "What a meddlesome good-for-nothing!"

"I just asked them to get you some medicinal herbs since you look so frail. I heard you can make pills, so make sure you have some for yourself when you get back."

Li Yang frowned deeply. "You mean you think I'm useless?"

"I didn't say that!"

Gui Li sensed something was wrong and, taking advantage of the two talking, immediately led his people away and disappeared.

His Majesty is really something. He specifically ordered them to find the medicinal herbs, and dozens of them were even stolen from other places. He couldn't even tell the princess about such a great gesture. No wonder he's single!

……

next day

Rou Sheng, holding Feng Mo in her arms with tears in her eyes, carried them to the exit of the cave.

All the people stood inside the spacious cave, watching them leave.

Zeng Yao wiped away her tears fiercely, "Brother, you're a bad person! You promised to take me with you!"

Zeng Xu looked back with some difficulty, but finally couldn't help running back to hug Zeng Yao. "Yao Yao, be good. This time, your brother's task for you is to protect Daddy and Mommy. When your brother comes back next time, I'll take you on an adventure!"

"Brother keeps his word." Zeng Yao wiped her tears and snot on him, feeling wronged.

"keep your word!"

Li Su, holding the gray wolf, turned around and said, "Let's go, Zeng Xu! Next time we come back, we must take our home back!"

The last sentence was addressed to all the people who watched them leave.

The five of them emerged from the cave. Li Su and the other two looked around curiously, and Ji Cang teased them, "You guys haven't ever left Fengyang Kingdom before, have you?"

The three looked at him silently, and Li Yang replied, "Yes, Brother Ji Cang is very knowledgeable. Thank you for taking care of us along the way."

After a night's rest, Li Yang's complexion was much better. With the two long braids that Rou Sheng had styled for her early that morning, paired with a dark green dress, she looked like a little forest elf.

Ji Cang was captivated by her eyes, but Mo Yixing's words brought him back to reality.

"Hey, Ji Cang, you didn't bring Gui Luo with you. You two were always inseparable before."

Ji Cang abruptly withdrew his gaze from Li. "I sent him out on an errand."

Li Yang smiled without saying a word, slowly falling to the back of the five-person group. She glanced down at the little bug that had crawled out of her sleeve, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Today must be the day you celebrate obtaining the main city of Fengyang Kingdom, right? Well then, I'm going to give you a big gift.

……

Meanwhile, in the main city of Fengyang Kingdom, Dong Xiubei, wearing a mask, stood where Feng Mo had stood, with Sha Yi and Xia Yi, father and daughter, on his left and right respectively.

Below them was a large group of evil people, and hundreds of evil figures soared in the air like crows.

Dong Xiubei smiled and opened his arms, "Today is a day worth—"

"Boom!"

No sooner had the words been spoken than the evil figures standing below suddenly began to convulse violently, and in the blink of an eye, they all began to self-destruct.

The deafening explosion echoed through the main city of Fengyang Kingdom, its power so great that the ground trembled.

How could it not be enormous? This is the self-destruction of thousands of evil people!

The smile on Dong Xiubei's face vanished instantly, replaced by a gloomy expression. He clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the newly crafted golden chair behind him. "Go and find out why!"
