After Yang Jian put away the Jade Bone Zither Demon, the three of them traveled by boat.
Chu Qian drove the boat but did not know where to go, so she asked Yang Jian, "Exalted Immortal, where should we go?"
"How long have you been the king here?"
"More than 60,000 years."
Yang Jian nodded and said, "Then you should know some great demons that eat humans. Bring me to them, the more vicious and evil, the better."
A great demon that eats humans …
Chu Qian actually wanted to ask, "Which great demon doesn't eat humans?"
Even she had enjoyed the power of the souls of mortals with other great demons when she visited friends. Although it was useless to her, to most demon cultivators, the souls and flesh of mortals were great nourishment.
"Exalted Immortal, it's too easy to find such a great demon. Just go to the border with the South Continent. Which of those great demons doesn't like to eat human flesh?"
Yang Jian frowned slightly and said, "Why don't the human cultivators care?"
"Exalted Immortal, don't you know that even in the territory of the demon race, there are many human tribes and towns?"
Chu Qian was afraid of angering Yang Jian, so she tried to pay attention to her words and said in a low voice, "The human race reproduces very quickly. Many great demons are still secretly raising humans in captivity … As long as we control the speed of devouring, we can not alarm the sects of the Middle Continent."
Yang Jian's face darkened when he heard that.
Yang Xiaochan was even more resentful and scolded, "How can the demon race be so unreasonable? We humans don't eat demons! "
Chu Qian said, "The demon race has existed since ancient times, but the human race rose after the decline of the liches and demons. Moreover, it was created by the Goddess who was born into the demon race. Many demons feel that the human race is naturally a few levels lower than them …"
Yang Jian slowly closed his eyes and loosened his clenched fists.
Chu Qian had been observing Yang Jian's expression, and she knew that Yang Jian was angry. She quickly said, "Of course not. I only used a few strands of my soul when I was being stared at by those great demons."
"Brother!" Yang Xiaochan stood up from the cattail hassock and clenched her fists. "Let's go fight the monsters!"
"Chu Qian, first list the headquarters, backgrounds, techniques, and backgrounds of the eighteen big demons that you know."
"Yes." Chu Qian sat down and began to organize the information carefully. Not long after, she told Yang Jian the information one by one.
Although she was a Great Demon, she was not a wild beast that had transformed into a demon, nor did she have any ancient demon race inheritance.
Yang Jian decided where to go next. Yang Xiaochan also asked about Chu Qian's background, which surprised Yang Jian.
Chu Qian's original form was a Jade Zither. Yang Jian had seen it before, and he had taken one of its strings.
Her Jade Zither originally belonged to a female immortal in the Celestial Court. That female immortal had also achieved immortality and was the head attendant of the Heaven Queen. She played in front of the Heaven Queen every day.
The Heaven Queen had set many rules for the fairies of the Jade Pool. One of them was that they must maintain their innocence and not mix around with men.
However, it was hard in heaven. Moreover, the path of cultivation was lonely, and there would always be fairies who violated the rules … Chu Qian's original master, the head attendant of the Heaven Queen, had feelings for a Heavenly General. The two of them would meet privately, and in the end, the matter was exposed.
The Heavenly General was tied up by the Heaven Queen and sent to the Jade Emperor for questioning. However, the Jade Emperor protected the Heavenly General, causing the Heaven Queen to lose face.
Because of this, the Heaven Queen vented her anger on the head attendant. She removed her immortal bones and sent her into reincarnation, so that she could not see her lover again.
"… At that time, she hugged me like this, bleeding all over. She looked back in the direction of the Cloudy Palace of the Golden Arches every three steps, and slowly walked up the Divine Punishment Platform …"
At this point, Chu Qian's eyes were filled with tears. Beside her, Yang Xiaochan had already hugged Yang Jian's arm and burst into tears.
Only Yang Jian's expression remained the same. It was not because he had a heart of stone, but because he had heard and seen all kinds of tragedies in his previous life. It was difficult for him to be affected by this story.
Before the head attendant entered reincarnation, she injected all of her cultivation into the Jade Instrument in her arms. Then, she threw the Jade Instrument into the mortal world and said to the direction of the Cloudy Palace of the Golden Arches, word by word:
"As long as the sound of this zither does not stop, this heart will not regret."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Heavenly Lightning had already swallowed her delicate body. A wisp of her soul, carrying the punishment of the Heaven Queen, entered reincarnation.
"I am that jade zither." Chu Qian slowly closed her eyes. "I hate the Celestial Court, I hate the Heaven Queen, I hate the Heavenly General for being heartless! Therefore, I fell into the Demon Dao and turned into a Jade Zither Demon. I hope that one day, I can see her again and kill that heartless person with my own hands. "
Yang Xiaochan, who was beside Yang Jian, grabbed the corner of Yang Jian's clothes and wiped her tears. She choked and asked, "That Heavenly General, did he really not go to see her?"
"Why would he come? The Jade Emperor protected him. Why would he offend the Heaven Queen, who is in charge of the Jade Pool, for the sake of a poor woman who is about to be stripped of her immortal status? "
Yang Xiaochan gritted her teeth and cursed, "That head attendant is too pitiful! The immortals in heaven are all so cruel! "
"Isn't that right?" Chu Qian smiled bitterly. Her slender hands gently stroked her waterfall-like hair, making a few tinkling sounds.
Yang Xiaochan looked at Yang Jian and asked, "Brother, don't you feel touched?"
"Touched, lamented." Yang Jian sighed, "What can it change? This is something that happened sixty to seventy thousand years ago. I don't know how that head attendant is doing. "
"I transformed into a human and went to the mortal world to look for her for thousands of years." Chu Qian bit her lip. "I didn't find any news about her. The Primordial World is too big, and there are too many mortals. There are five continents, three thousand Great Worlds, and countless small worlds … "
Yang Xiaochan was already sitting next to Chu Qian. He held her arm and said, "Jade Instrument, don't worry. My brother will definitely help you find that head attendant sister!"
Yang Jian glared at his sister gloomily. This matter was obviously a game between the Heaven Queen and the Jade Emperor. Don't get me involved if you have nothing to do.
Unexpectedly, Chu Qian could not hide her excitement. She bowed down and begged, "Immortal! Please help the head attendant! "
"If we meet in the future, I may help you. Get up."
Yang Jian did not say anything definite. In this vast sea of people, the woman Chu Qian had been looking for for thousands of years to no avail would not appear in front of him so coincidentally.
Besides, what could he do to help?
How could the case set by the Heaven Queen be so easy to overturn? If it was so easy, where did the Milky Way in the sky come from?
The atmosphere in the fairy boat was a little sad. After Chu Qian stopped crying, she had a closer and more favorable impression of Yang Jian and his sister. She took the initiative to play a song for Yang Jian.
The sound of the zither was joyful and soothing, but it also made people unconsciously immersed in it, wandering in the wonderful realm of immortality.
After the song, Yang Xiaochan pestered Chu Qian to teach her how to play the zither. The boat was jingling for a while, making Yang Jian unable to calm down.
Inexplicably, Yang Jian felt a little suffocated.
Originally, he thought that the demon race was like the tiger in the mountain. Although they killed people, in the eyes of the tiger, humans were the same as monkeys. They were all food … That was natural.
However, after listening to Chu Qian's story, he heard for the first time that several big demons had secretly gathered in the depths of the demon race's territory to hold a "Human Tasting Assembly", which was a grand event among the big demons …
Yang Jian was infuriated.
The ancient demon race used the souls of humans to refine Dharma treasures and increase their demonic power. The human race was almost extinct because of that. Today, the demon race had not changed and was still doing such things in the narrow area of the Primordial World!
Yang Jian thought that he was not a nationalist, but he was also a little hot-blooded!
In the midst of his anger, Yang Jian suddenly heard a deafening roar of a tiger. He suddenly turned his head and looked to the left. His eyes flickered as he saw the Demonic Aura soaring into the sky!
Opposite to the Demonic Aura, there was a condensed Blood Qi!
Yang Jian could not use his spiritual senses to probe too far. Yang Xiaochan hurriedly said, "Brother! There's a huge black tiger in front! That black tiger is chasing a group of people in armor! "
"This tiger is only at the Perfected Immortal Realm. Xiaochan, go and kill it."
"Oh! Alright. "Yang Xiaochan was a little nervous. She took out an object the size of a jujube pit from her sleeve. That object turned into a basin in the blink of an eye and she placed it on the meditation cushion.
That was naturally the kennel of the Celestial Dog.
Yang Xiaochan puffed out her chest and raised her head. She put on an old-fashioned look and said, "I'll be back soon!"
Chu Qian immediately stood up. She did not forget the responsibility that Yang Jian had given her. She smiled and said, "I'll go and help you."
Although Yang Jian wanted to stop her, he did not really say it out loud.
Yang Xiaochan's Heaven Immortal cultivation was more than enough to deal with a black tiger that was not even stable at the Perfected Immortal Realm. She actually had to bring a Golden Immortal demon to help.
