Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"How about you stay with Brother Helan while I go out to collect firewood?" Jin Xuan glanced at her, immediately understood her concerns, and volunteered.

He thought to himself, as a man, how could I let a girl do such things? He stood up and walked out.

"No, let me go. You are responsible for protecting Helan Ruofeng." Yu Xiaobai hurriedly stopped him. This guy is an emperor after all. If he did such a thing, he would probably starve to death and wouldn't even be able to pick up firewood.

Jin Xuan wanted to fight for it again, but Yu Xiaobai had already run out of the cave. Jin Xuan was left with a helpless sigh, and turned back to Helan Ruofeng to continue to protect him.

On the isolated island, Ling Yuwei ran around alone after escaping. People who have done bad things are inevitably panicked and guilty. There was a voice in her heart that kept telling her that she shouldn't do this, but another voice said that if you don't work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. If you don't do this, she might be the one to die.

Sa Yulong's threats seemed to be repeated in her ears over and over again. She didn't want to be threatened and hated being threatened, but now she was so weak that she had no choice but to accept it.

“Why can’t we leave this island?”

Ling Yuwei was tired of running and yelling in anger. When she was tired of yelling, she simply found a hidden place to hide and stare blankly. She came here with Helan Ruofeng and his group. Now, that group of people were trapped in the barrier set by the big monster and their lives were in danger. Among them was the emperor Jin Xuan. If the emperor died here, what should she do?

Yunji Villa...

"This Ningguang Mirror is a treasure passed down by my ancestor Yunji. It can spy on everything in the world. Of the thirty-seven new disciples, the whereabouts of thirty-three have been reflected since entering the secret realm. Why is there no news about the other four?"

The person who spoke was Gu Qingqi, the great elder of Yunji Villa. All the magic tools and talisman papers of Yunji Villa were looked after by his disciples. Naturally, he knew everything about the characteristics and usage of each kind of magic tool and talisman paper.

"What the Great Elder means is, did something unexpected happen to these four disciples?"

Sa Hurricane looked worried. The selection of new disciples was a major event that concerned the honor and disgrace of his Yunji Villa for a hundred years. Every disciple had the potential to be the one who would take on the responsibility of carrying forward the Yunji Villa.

"The Condensing Light Mirror can only reflect the people and things in the human world. Could it be that there is something in the secret realm of Yunji Mountain Villa that does not belong to the human world?"

Lan Moqiu sat lazily on the side and said something lifeless. In his arms was the Pekingese dog, half of whose soul was now Zi Yan. The Pekingese dog let him hold it stiffly, not daring to move.

What happened to others had nothing to do with Lan Moqiu, but as the day passed, there was no sign of the little emperor. His destiny was different from Jin Xuan's, and it was inexplicably tampered with by these old Taoists.

"what?"

"Also a possibility……"

"A place that doesn't belong to the human world?"

Lan Moqiu's words awakened everyone. In the secret realm under Danxia Peak, there really was a place that did not belong to the human world. It was the place where the demon king Feng Xi hid after he fled to the human world after being defeated in the battle between immortals and demons ten thousand years ago.

"That's right. There used to be a small island in this secret realm where spiritual energy gathered. There was a crocodile tamed by our ancestors stationed on the island. Ever since the demon king Feng Xi temporarily stayed there, it was infected by demonic energy, and the originally well-behaved crocodile became violent and ferocious. Our ancestors were worried that future generations would accidentally enter and die, so they set up a ban here, and ordinary disciples cannot enter."

After the Great Elder finished explaining, he secretly looked at everyone.

"Just a bunch of rookies like them can't get in there at all." Sa Yulong said disdainfully.

Ling Yuwei had the invisibility technique she taught her, so she couldn't be seen in the condensing mirror. But why couldn't the three of them see it either? I don't know if Ling Yuwei had dealt with Zi Yan, the ignorant little girl.

"If these four disciples really entered the isolated island by mistake, we must go in quickly and bring them out." Sa Hurricane said seriously.

"Master, please let me in! I will definitely find them all and bring them back." Zhou Ze was the first to ask for help.

He is the head disciple of Yunji Villa and will inherit Yunji Villa in the future. Therefore, he always remembers his mission and wants to protect every disciple of Yunji Villa.

"Okay, Ze'er, you don't have much to take with you. You must find Yunqing and Yulong and bring them out intact."

Sa Hurricane recognized the ability of his first disciple and agreed to let him enter the secret realm without hesitation.

When Buduo and Yunqing heard that they could enter the secret realm, their joy was beyond words.

"I'm not going." Sa Yulong unexpectedly refused her father's arrangement, attracting everyone's attention.

She didn't want to enter the secret realm at this time. There was Ling Yuwei in it, and there was a red snake demon on Ling Yuwei's body. She knew nothing about the power of this snake demon. If she went in and encountered it, wouldn't it be a life-and-death situation? She would not be stupid enough to go in and die.

"I feel a little dizzy..." Seeing that everyone was looking at her strangely, Sa Yulong pretended to be dizzy and supported her head with her hands.

"If you feel uncomfortable, go back to your room and rest!" Sa Hun was extremely fond of Sa Yulong and immediately let her go back to rest.

Secret realm...

The red-banded snake demon was now covered in wounds, weakly hiding in a pile of rubble. His real body was now the same size as an ordinary snake.

He never dreamed that a great demon with a lifespan of tens of thousands of years could be so seriously injured by a few yellow-haired children. The demon pill that he had cultivated and regarded as a treasure was also snatched away by that little girl.

This was all his fault for being too clever. He thought that the demon pills of all demon cultivators were of the highest quality. However, some unorthodox cultivators took advantage of this to snatch the demon pills from the demons and help them cultivate, to enhance their evil skills.

After learning about this, he did not hesitate to force the demon pill to be stored in his right arm, which saved his life when he was besieged by the immortal sect. The immortal sect could not destroy him, so they could only trap him in the demon-locking tower in the back mountain of Yunji Villa.

However, after being trapped for ten thousand years, he thought he would have a chance to kill all the immortals and avenge his previous shame, but he didn't expect that the girl would suck his blood regardless of her life. The biggest hidden danger of this demon pill hidden in the arm is that it will flow away with the blood when it encounters a strong suction force.

Now that the demon pill is lost, he has been severely injured and reverted to his original form. The only way out is to hide first, heal his wounds, and then wait for an opportunity to take the demon pill back.

Zhou Zehe led a few fellow apprentices into the secret realm to look for the isolated island according to the master's instructions.

at the same time……

"Wow...it smells so good. It would be perfect if there was a little salt and some cumin powder sprinkled on it."

Yu Xiaobai stared at the sizzling crocodile meat on the campfire with a greedy expression on his face, and his throat couldn't help but slide a few times.

She picked up a lot of dry firewood on the island and found some plant leaves that could be used as spices. After preparing them, she roasted them over a fire.

The fire was not easy to come by. She taught Jin Xuan how to make fire by rubbing two sticks together. The two took turns trying for a long time, and blisters appeared on their palms. However, the pile of firewood still did not produce even a smoke or any sign of fire.

"Let me help you!" Helan Ruofeng's voice, as pleasant as a spring breeze, sounded weakly.

"Helan Ruofeng, are you awake? Are you feeling better?"

"Brother Helan! How do you feel?"

When Yu Xiaobai and Jin Xuan saw that he woke up, they excitedly surrounded him.

"It's okay, I'll help you make a fire!" Helan Ruofeng slowly stood up and walked to the pile of firewood, and used a fire-controlling technique. The pile of firewood was instantly ignited.

It is only because of Helan Ruofeng's Fire Art that Yu Xiaobai is drooling at the crocodile meat at this moment.

"I do have salt, but what is cumin?" Helan Ruofeng asked curiously, but his eyes never left the sizzling crocodile meat.

"You actually brought salt with you when you went out. That's great. Give it to me quickly." Yu Xiaobai excitedly stretched out his hand towards Helan Ruofeng.

Helan Ruofeng fumbled in his arms for a long time with a smile on his face, and took out a small package wrapped in oil paper.

Yu Xiaobai took it and opened it excitedly, and it was indeed salt.

After some work, he used a stick to stick the roasted meat and divided it among Jin Xuan and Helan Ruofeng. In the process of dividing, he did not forget to tear a little and put it into his mouth, chewing and making sounds of praise.

"Since I came here, I have never eaten such delicious food in my entire life." Yu Xiaobai muttered as he ate.

Helan Ruofeng and Jin Xuan also carefully tasted the first bite, and then couldn't help but taste the second bite. As they tasted the alligator meat, they secretly sighed: "Although this alligator looks extremely ugly, its meat is so delicious." At this time, their hearts were filled with joy and satisfaction.

After eating, you looked at me and I looked at you, and couldn't help but think of today's experience. First, we escaped death, and then we were lucky enough to find such delicious food to fill our stomachs.

More importantly, they also made close friends like Yu Xiaobai. Thinking of this, they felt extremely lucky and thought it was a great blessing in life.

Suddenly, Jin Xuan was attracted by Yu Xiaobai's rude eating habits. If he had met such a rude girl in the past, he might have felt disgusted and secretly scolded her for being vulgar and rude.

But now, looking at Yu Xiaobai, he felt that she was more real and smart. Especially when she rushed forward and bit the red snake demon without hesitation, her determination and courage moved him. He dared not think about that and did not dare to do that.

In this world, how many women can stand up without flinching in a life-and-death situation, especially a timid woman like him.

Helan Ruofeng only remembered that he was strangled by the throat by the red snake demon, and the air in his body was sucked away bit by bit, and his brain was almost blank.

Just when he thought he was about to die, that weak figure suddenly rushed in front of him. Her head was so close to him, and she opened her mouth and bit him. Her slender little hand trembled as she tried her best to hold the hand of the red snake demon.

He clearly saw her sitting on the ground crying out of fear, which showed what a timid girl she was. Such a timid girl, yet she tried her best to save him when he was about to die.

"Why are you two looking at me like that? Look... aren't there a lot more?" Yu Xiaobai's scalp numbed by the stares of these two people, and he pointed at the barbecue on the fire.

"Stupid dog, they think the way you eat is too ugly." Zi Yan's inner voice suddenly rang out at this moment.

"Try calling me a stupid dog again. If it weren't for me, you would be dead now." Yu Xiaobai immediately fought back. She could not forget that when the red-bellied snake demon appeared, this guy was hiding in the corner and trembling.

"You..." Zi Yan was choked and speechless for a moment.

"What? Isn't what I said the truth? I am the one who broke the impasse today. I am the most important role, do you understand?" Yu Xiaobai continued to say domineeringly.

One second she thought she was going to be buried in the snake's belly, and the next second she broke out.

To be honest, she was determined to die before she rushed forward, imagining that she would be torn into pieces by the snake demon, and end up with no complete body. Who would have thought that she would accidentally break the guy's weakness, which gave Helan Ruofeng the opportunity to attack him again.

Yu Xiaobai still wanted to praise herself, but she was a little embarrassed in front of the two handsome boys. Zi Yan was different. They were all girls, and this guy thought she was a dog, so she could act coquettishly, cute, and handsome in front of her at any time.

"Miss Zi Yan, do you remember what happened to the red light on your body when you strangled the big snake?" Jin Xuan only remembered what happened before at this moment, but still asked worriedly.

"Red light? What red light? I don't know! Is there red light on my body?" Yu Xiaobai knew nothing about the question.

"When you bit the big snake, didn't you notice anything unusual on your body?" Jin Xuan asked again. He always felt that the red light was abnormal, but he didn't understand why.

"After sucking the blood of the big monster, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Helan Ruofeng asked with concern after hearing Jin Xuan's question.

"I just remember that it was fishy and a little salty. After it went down my throat, my whole body felt like it was on fire. The pain was unbearable. I felt like my whole body was going to explode."

Yu Xiaobai vaguely remembered how he felt at that time and tried hard to recall it.

"Then what?" Jin Xuan asked.

"Nothing else happened. I fainted and saw you when I woke up." Yu Xiaobai spread his hands, indicating that there was nothing more to say.

Suddenly, Helan Ruofeng stretched out his hand and touched her heart, only to see a dark red bead buried in her heart, shining with a bright light.

This sudden move frightened Yu Xiaobai so much that she was stunned. She reached out to touch her chest but felt nothing.

"What is this?" Jin Xuan looked at Helan Ruofeng in confusion. If he guessed correctly, this was the inner elixir of the red-bellied snake demon.

"It's the demon pill of the red-bellied snake demon." After saying this, Helan Ruofeng looked at Yu Xiaobai with a worried look on his face.

"Is it poisonous? Will I die? Can I spit it out?" After saying this, Yu Xiaobai reached out to dig it out, but after several attempts, he still failed.

"Let me try. This process might be a bit painful for you." Helan Ruofeng warned in advance.

"I, I, I'm not afraid of pain, quickly help me pick this thing out." Yu Xiaobai said toughly, but his face was full of cowardice.

"Okay." Helan Ruofeng didn't allow her to be pretentious and directly cast a spell to obtain the demon pill.

Yu Xiaobai instantly felt as if a sharp blade was scraping her heart, causing her unbearable pain.

"Ah... stop, stop, I won't take it anymore." Yu Xiaobai screamed in pain, tears flowing out of his eyes unconsciously.

Helan Ruofeng originally wanted to try again, but the demon pill seemed to have taken root and was embedded in Yu Xiaobai's soul, motionless.

He was afraid that forcibly taking it out would hurt her, so he had to give up, and...

"Miss Zi Yan, why is your soul a little incomplete?"

Helan Ruofeng had doubts in his heart so he naturally asked.

"What do you mean by incomplete? I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me. I'm a complete person with a complete soul." Yu Xiaobai retorted immediately. She didn't want a third person to know the secret between her and Zi Yan.
