On the second day after Zhu Yao arrived at the Demonic Immortal Continent, she suddenly realized something. She actually did not turn back into that divine sword. Logically speaking, her master had said that he could place her into the storage mystic artifact for three breaths of time. It could be one, or two, but it definitely wouldn't exceed three breaths. But now, forget about three breaths, even three million thirty thousand breaths would be enough. Yet, she was still staying in her body, and did not return.
This could only mean that either her guess was incorrect, and she had dug a pit for herself. Or … She was too far away, and the signal was cut off. In any case, she would not be returning to that sword for a while. She did not know if this was good news or bad news. However, being locked up was definitely not good news. After the two Demonic Immortals brought her back to the Demonic Immortal Palace, they straightforwardly threw her into prison. What happened to being friends!?
"Girly, after the investigation is done, we'll come and see you again, you know?" As they spoke, the yellow and red Deities waved their sleeves, not taking away a single cloud.
cao！
Zhu Yao stayed in this prison filled with formations for two days, yet, no one came to investigate. This couldn't go on. She had to get out. Though she couldn't leave the Demonic Immortal Continent, she could at least send a message to her master to report that she was safe.
"Sesame, do you have any research on formations?" She looked at the formations around her for a long while, yet, she was unable to determine their attributes. She could only seek help from Sesame who was familiar with the map. That's right, she wanted to break out of the prison.
"Mistress, Sesame doesn't know either. However, the formations in the Demonic Immortal Palace are very unique. No matter how powerful a Demonic Immortal is, they can't escape. "Sesame replied, faintly carrying a little pride.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course. I heard that the formations here were personally placed down by the previous Demonic Immortal Palace's Demon King, using bloodlines as a guide. No one … Ehhhhh! "Before he could finish, Zhu Yao stood up, patted the dust off her body, and immediately walked out. She did not feel the slightest bit of pressure. Sesame's face was filled with disbelief. "Mistress, how did you get out?"
"Didn't you say that all Demonic Immortals can't get out?" Zhu Yao snorted. "I'm not a Demonic Immortal." What does formations placed down by bloodlines have to do with me!?
"…" The Demonic Immortal King cried himself unconscious in the toilet.
Though Zhu Yao had come out, she did not dare to casually step out of the Sky Prison's entrance. Though the formations inside were deceptive, the entrance was indeed heavily guarded. She did not release her divine sense, but she could feel the pressure of the Golden Immortals on both sides of the door. He couldn't force his way through. Moreover, the world tide would only close after a year. Even if she were to leave, she wouldn't be able to return to Lightning Divine Hall. He didn't know what to do.
"Mistress, let's head south." Sesame suddenly suggested.
"Why?"
Sesame paused for a moment, before slowly saying. "Because … I have a very powerful friend over there. Maybe he knows of another way to go to the Immortal Cultivation Continent. "
"Really?" Zhu Yao doubted.
"Of course it's real."
She swept a glance at Sesame, who was in her divine sense. "A beastie like you has friends too?"
"… Mas … ter!" Although he didn't have any morals, he still had the right to make friends! "How can you be so unconfident in Beastie? After all, I'm … "
"Enough nonsense!" Zhu Yao immediately interrupted him. "Let's think of a way out first."
Zhu Yao was a little troubled. In terms of martial strength, she definitely couldn't beat them, and their reinforcements were thousands of miles away. This was even the Demonic Immortal Palace, where the density of Demonic Immortals was the highest. If she wanted to leave, she had to use a cheat.
Ting!
A conversation window suddenly popped out.
The hell. It really provided cheats, hey!
The words on the conversation window this time were rather simple. It was neatly written: Friendship Cheat Stealth System (Trial) Activate or Cancel.
"Stealth!" Zhu Yao became excited, and immediately tapped on the 'Activate' option.
In the next moment. Her body began to turn transparent inch by inch. First, her legs, then her body, slowly, her entire body disappeared. And then … Splat. Sesame was thrown out.
Zhu Yao: "…"
"Mistress … What's going on?" Sesame panicked.
Uh … She didn't know either! After trying, she realized that she couldn't keep Sesame back into her divine sense at all. Could this be the drawback of the trial equipment? The functions were too trial, right?
Before she could think clearly, Sesame's cries attracted the guards at the entrance.
"Who's there?" Two Demonic Immortals charged in. Looking at Sesame on the ground, they looked as though they had seen a ghost. "Your highness!"
The hell was' Your highness'?
Just as she was puzzled, Sesame had already been tied up into a dumpling.
"Let me go, hurry and let me go. I'm a beastie with an owner! " Sesame struggled for a long while to no avail, and was carried out by the two Demonic Immortals with one head each.
After all, it was her own beastie, so Zhu Yao had no choice but to follow.
Because of her concealment cheat, she wasn't discovered by anyone along the way. The two Demonic Immortals carried Sesame excitedly as they walked into the tallest hall in the Demonic Immortal Palace. Along the way, they even raised their voices and announced to the world. "Hurry and inform the princess! Your highness Sesame has returned! "They attracted a crowd of onlookers.
Sesame's entire face turned green, and it struggled even more violently. "Let me go! What are you two beasts trying to do to me? I will never obey you! "
"…" Can you not lose your integrity at a time like this?
However, no matter how it roared, it was completely useless. The two Demonic Immortals joyfully carried it all the way to the great hall, and then threw it onto the ground. Only then did the two of them kowtow. "Reporting to your majesty. Earlier, we discovered your highness Sesame in the heavenly prison, and have brought him here."
"Mn." A dignified voice sounded from above. "Well done. You may leave now."
Only then did the two Demonic Immortals stand up and retreat, leaving behind Sesame who was tied up like a dumpling. Zhu Yao raised her head, and saw a white-haired and white-bearded elder sitting on the stage in the great hall. He was dressed in dark-colored robes, and there were even faint blood-colored patterns embroidered on his robes. His cultivation level was a little unclear, but it was most likely above that of a Heavy Deity. This should be the Demon King.
He lightly swept his eyes towards the "dumpling" on the ground. Even though she was in stealth, Zhu Yao could still feel the pressure from his body. She could not help but worry that he would really do something to Sesame.
"Stinky brat, you're finally back …" He lightly said. Walking down from the stage, the corner of his lips lifted into a faint smile. "This is the second time."
"The hell, if you have the guts, let go of this daddy!" Sesame struggled for a few moments like a fish that had come ashore. "Old man, just give up. I will never marry that precious daughter of yours. "
The Demon King's expression darkened. Frowning, he pulled Sesame up, and said with slight anger. "You've already descended to the Realm twice, why aren't you obedient? As long as you agree to marry Gong Lan, this seat of the King of Demonic Immortals will be yours. " Sesame rolled his eyes.
"You make it sound like I really want it." Sesame rolled its eyes at him. Sesame rolled his eyes. "This daddy doesn't like her, and I don't want to marry her. I'm just that unrestrained and free."
The Demon King's expression sank. He patiently advised. "What's wrong with Gong Lan? The two of you grew up together, and ascended together. How is she not worthy of you? "
"How is she not worthy of me?" Sesame continued stubbornly. "I don't want to marry a two-legged beastie."
"You …" The Demon King was enraged as well. "Gong Lan is a feathered race! Have you ever seen a feathered race with four legs? "
"I don't care!" Sesame said with a shameless look. "I just don't like two-legged people. I just want to marry a girl of the same race … "
"You … You're simply heartless and unreasonable!"
"You're the heartless one! You're the heartless one! You're the unreasonable one!"
"No matter how heartless I am …"
Uh … Why did this line develop in a strange direction, hey?
Tsk! Seeing how the two of them were able to match each other's lines, their relationship shouldn't be that bad? She had worried for nothing this time.
"Your clansmen are as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns in the first place. I can't believe you actually want to find someone of the same race so badly. "The corner of the Demon King's lips twitched. He really wanted to strangle him to death, as he heavily panted and said. "Then why don't you find one for me to see!"
"I found one." Sesame's eyes instantly shone.
"What?"
Sesame hinted for him to undo the bindings on his body. The Demon King hesitated for a moment. He reckoned that it wouldn't be able to play any tricks in front of him. With a wave of his hand, he loosened the bindings. Sesame flipped his hand, and in an instant, a gigantic egg appeared next to him.
Zhu Yao was startled. This was the egg of the Spirit Guiding Beast from the Lower Realm. Sesame really brought it up to the Higher Realm.
He hugged it with his hands as though it was a treasure, and his eyes shone. "See that, old man! This egg's aura is the same as mine, and I found it in the Lower Realm. It's definitely of the same race as me. "
"Just because of an egg!" The Demon King frowned. He still wanted to say something. A Demonic Immortal walked in and reported. "Reporting to my king, Princess Lan requests an audience."
Zhu Yao felt Sesame visibly tremble for a moment. His two hands which were initially lying on the egg, had retracted half of them as well, as though he was subconsciously trying to hide. Was this the female lead's appearance? Zhu Yao was instantly excited. After realizing that the Demon King did not have any ill intentions towards Sesame, she unconsciously activated her spectator mode.
"Call her in." The Demon King hesitated for a moment, before waving his hand.
Not even a moment later, footsteps could be heard from the entrance, and a valiant woman walked in. She was wearing a full set of armor, and it seemed like she had yet to remove it. Her face was expressionless, her eyes were firm, and her feet were firm. Her entire body was filled with an indescribable majesty.
So … So handsome!
Zhu Yao could not help but want to give her a thumbs up. She had never seen a woman who could be this handsome. Back then, when she saw how Sesame was rejecting this princess so much, she had even thought that this princess's appearance was too unsightly. So not only was this girl not ugly, she was even this handsome.
Sesame, are you blind?
Gong Lan walked in one step at a time. Her eyes glanced at Sesame at the side, but she immediately shifted her eyes away. Cupping her hands, she bowed towards the Demon King and said. "Your daughter greets father."
"Stand up, stand up." Compared to Sesame, the Demon King was evidently as gentle as a spring breeze and rain towards this princess, as he personally helped her up from the ground. "How was your trip to Cold Imperial Forest this time? Were you injured? "
"Thank you for your concern, father." She replied with a stern expression. "Fortunately, I did not disappoint you. I have already taken control of the Towering Ice Beast, and have now been escorted back to the prison."
"Good, good, good." The Demon King beamed with joy, as he patted on Gong Lan's shoulder. "It's good that you're back. Sesame is here as well. Let's take this opportunity to settle your marriage as well."
Gong Lan was stunned, while Sesame at the side immediately exploded. "Are you for real? Old man, you're crazy! I've already said it many times, this daddy doesn't like her in the slightest. I don't want to marry her. "
"Shut up!" The Demon King glared at him. "There's no room for discussion. You have to marry her even if you don't want to."
"This daddy isn't going to marry her. If you have the ability, then kill me."
"You think I don't dare to!?"
"Come!"
Just as the two of them were about to escalate from a verbal battle to a physical one, Gong Lan frowned. She suddenly bowed towards the Demon King and said. "I hope that my majesty can cancel my engagement with him."
"What?" The Demon King was startled, as he looked at Gong Lan with a face of disbelief. "You … Haven't you always wanted to … Lan 'er, you have to think this through. Don't worry, if this brat dares to bully you in the future, this daddy will be the first to not let him off. "
Gong Lan turned to glance at Sesame. Her expression was complicated, as though there were many unspeakable things hidden within, and her heart was heavy. Sesame trembled from her gaze, and turned his head away a little uncomfortably.
She shook her head with a light smile. "There's no need for that. Those were all jokes I made when I was young. You can't treat them seriously. Now … Let's just treat this engagement as if it never happened. "
"Lan 'er …"
"Father!" Gong Lan still spoke in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing. "He descended to the Lower Realm twice, so he can be considered to have paid the price. What's the point of continuing to pester him? "
The Demon King turned silent.
"This … You're the one who said it." Sesame weakly leaped out. "You're not allowed to go back on your words! I'm leaving right now. You're not allowed to chase after me. "
Gong Lan turned to glance at him, the complicated emotions in her eyes had already disappeared, turning into clarity. "Your highness, please take care."
Sesame choked, as though he had heard something unbelievable, his expression became complicated.
"Stinky brat! You want to run just like that? It won't be that easy. "The Demon King looked as though he was going to settle the score with him, however, he was stopped by Gong Lan.
Sesame immediately ran out of the great hall, and without even turning back, he left the Demon King's palace. Because he was in too much of a hurry, he had even forgotten that he could fly. When she caught up to him, he was already lying on the ground in exhaustion, panting like a dog. However, he was still smiling with a complacent look, as though he had just won a prize. "Hahahaha … I finally don't have to marry that ugly monster anymore. That's great! Mistress … Mistress … "He danced about for a long while, and began to search for Zhu Yao. Although he could not see her, as a contracted beastie, he could still sense her presence by his side. Mistress, hurry and come out. Accompany this beastie in happiness.
Just as Zhu Yao was about to remove the invisibility function on the upper right corner, a red figure suddenly flashed in front of her eyes. Princess Gong Lan who was still in the great hall earlier suddenly appeared. Sesame was shocked, as he looked at her with a guarded expression. "You … What are you trying to do now!? I'm telling you … You were the one who said to cancel the engagement. Don't … Don't even think of going back on your words! I don't like it at all … "
Gong Lan did not say anything, and simply handed over a pearl-like pearl.
"What's this?" Sesame was startled.
"Tasyoluk."
Zhu Yao was startled. Tasyoluk. Wasn't that the secret realm she saw Sesame for the first time?
Gong Lan slowly said. "This was given to me by your mother back then. When you were punished to the Lower Realm, I sent it along with you to the Lower Realm. The first time you came back, I summoned it back. Now … This belongs to you in the first place, so I'm returning it to you. "
"…" Sesame was stunned, as he looked at the pearl in her hand a little hesitantly, as though he was unsure if he should take it back.
Gong Lan however immediately stuffed it into his hands. "Father is already a late-stage High Deity, and he will be heading to the Lightning Divine Hall to enter the tower in a few days. He doesn't have much time left … You should come back to visit him more often. After all, you're his biological son. " After saying that, she turned around and materialized a pair of gigantic red wings. With a flap of her wings, without the slightest bit of hesitation, she disappeared without a trace.
Sesame held onto the pearl, and did not move for a long while.
A moment later, he blankly said. "Mistress, why do I … feel a little uncomfortable?"
Zhu Yao rolled her eyes at him.
