Baby Serendipity: The Whole World Fell In Love With Me-Chapter 687 - 686: Can’t They Be Released Too?
Chapter 687: Chapter 686: Can’t They Be Released Too?
Black Tortoise did not understand and sent out a portion of its Divine Consciousness to investigate inside the Mountain River Sheji Map.
This investigation was even more meticulous than before, leaving no stone unturned.
After the investigation, Black Tortoise stared at the Mountain River Sheji Map with a complex expression, its face looking even more serious than before.
Yang Xian sensed something was amiss and asked, "Black Tortoise God, is there a problem with the Mountain River Sheji Map’s interior?"
Black Tortoise nodded, then shook its head.
This action confused Yang Xian, and the little monkey Xiaoxiao who was scratching its head hurriedly sent a voice message through its mobile phone, "Good God, just tell us, by the looks of it, it seems like there’s a big issue with this Divine Artifact."
"The problem is quite easy to solve," Black Tortoise paused, "It’s just that, this Divine Artifact is rather sentimental."
A sentimental Divine Artifact?
Yang Xian and Xiaoxiao exchanged glances, pondering the meaning behind Black Tortoise’s words.
Green, who had been silent until now, was the first to speak, "Could it be that the Mountain River Sheji Map, like me, has developed a spirit?"
Black Tortoise said, "It’s about the same, you are Divine Artifacts from roughly the same period, so it isn’t strange for the Mountain River Sheji Map to have a spirit. But this spirit, it is truly extraordinary."
A look of incomprehension covered the New Year Picture Doll face of Green.
All are Divine Artifacts, could there be such a significant difference?
But after Black Tortoise finished speaking, it closed its eyes, as if occupied with something. Green did not dare to ask further and could only keep watching the Mountain River Sheji Map, to see what would happen next with Mianmian.
In the image, two little ones who had lost their parents embraced each other.
Mianmian stepped out of the cage.
The demons around her found Mianmian odd and couldn’t help asking, "You’ve transferred Spiritual Qi to this little fox, yet your Spiritual Qi wasn’t absorbed by Wu Chenzi?"
Mianmian didn’t answer the demons’ question and just stood under the lamplight, staring with round, wide eyes at the demon who spoke.
Xiaoxiao, a young child with rosy lips and white teeth looking delicate, nevertheless wore an expressionless face that inexplicably frightened the demons.
In the silence, another demon asked, "Su Mianmian, is Wu Chenzi really planning to take us out one by one and kill us?"
This time, Mianmian replied to the demons, "Yes, he said as much."
These demons had been locked under the Demon Suppression Tower for a very long time, their snake blood and bear bile being harvested repeatedly for decades. Wu Chenzi said that he had noticed that the medicinal effectiveness of snake blood and bear bile had weakened recently, needing a new batch of demons caught from the outside.
And for the demons originally inside the tower, only their Demon Pills were of some use.
The task of killing these demons naturally fell upon Mianmian.
Wu Chenzi said, as his most excellent disciple, she needed to demonstrate her prowess to the people.
In fact, Mianmian didn’t really want this kind of prowess; not every demon was man-eating. For example, the big black bear closest to the little fox was a non-man-eating demon.
His body didn’t have those black currents of qi.
But Mianmian had no choice, she also didn’t know how long she would have to cultivate before she could kill Wu Chenzi.
While Wu Chenzi absorbed her body’s Spiritual Qi, she had secretly investigated and found that Wu Chenzi’s body seemed to contain endless Spiritual Power, and in his dantian was a child that looked very much like Wu Chenzi.
Fortunately, she had entered Wu Chenzi’s body quietly following the Spiritual Qi and looked around. Otherwise, the child inside Wu Chenzi’s body would have discovered her.
Other Daoist Priests say, the more Spiritual Power, the stronger one becomes.
So Mianmian knew, she could not beat Wu Chenzi right now because he had more Spiritual Power inside his body than she did.
Even if she didn’t want to give him Spiritual Qi, there was nothing she could do.
The non-man-eating black bear, upon hearing Mianmian say that Wu Chenzi would indeed kill them one by one, showed a pained expression on his fluffy bear face.
When he was captured by Wu Chenzi, he had just had three bear cubs with another female bear.
Although he had become a demon, he didn’t have great ambitions; he only thought about mating with different female bears to have more cubs. However, Wu Chenzi, in order to capture him, killed his mate and cubs in front of him, saying that ordinary bears are useless creatures.
These years, living under the Demon Suppression Tower, the black bear kept thinking: maybe someone stronger than Wu Chenzi would kill him?
Maybe Wu Chenzi had angered a more powerful demon and got killed by that demon?
He had endured the pain of his bear bile being harvested periodically, all because of this hatred.
Now that Wu Chenzi wouldn’t even give him a chance to cling to life, he decided it was better to contribute in another way!
The black bear looked at the little fox and said in a deep voice, "You come into my cage, take my inner pill, then go."
Actually, the little fox’s favorite was Uncle Black Bear next door.
The other demons would say some disheartening things in his presence, but Uncle Black Bear never did, instead, he would comfort him.
"No, if you take his inner pill, you’ll die," Mianmian added in a milky voice.
"But even if you don’t eat his inner pill, he will still die, and the inner pill will end up in Wu Chenzi’s hands anyway," Mianmian continued.
The little fox fell silent.
Indeed, Uncle Black Bear would still die, at the hands of Wu Chenzi.
"Can’t you just let them go?" the little fox asked Mianmian, "Let them go and come with us."
Mianmian cocked her head, "They are too big, they can’t fit through the dog’s hole."
Indeed, Mianmian was choosing to let the little fox go because she saw the dog’s hole.
The hole was only big enough for a dog’s size to pass through, and certainly, the black bear demon wouldn’t be able to escape because it was too big. She had played hide-and-seek with the children in the village before where Fat Brother couldn’t fit through the dog’s hole.
As for the other demons... Mianmian had no intention of letting them go.
They had all eaten humans.
Demons that have eaten humans, just like harmful people, are no different. Daoist Priests say that one who murders must pay with their life, so these demons deserve to die as well.
"Let me go too, Su Mianmian, you let me go as well, I have a slender body and can squeeze through the dog’s hole," one of the remaining Snake Demons began to plead with Mianmian, who simply walked up to them.
"Little fox, do you want their inner pills?" Mianmian asked.
The little fox was taken aback, "What are you saying?"
Holding her sword tightly, Mianmian tilted her head innocently, "If they die, the inner pills will be taken by Wu Chenzi, we can’t let him benefit, right?"
The little fox seemed shocked by the killing intent in Mianmian’s voice and did not respond for a long while.
After some time, as if he had made up his mind, he squeezed out of the cage.
"I’ll do it myself!!"
His Daddy and Mother died so tragically, as their little cub, how could he not avenge them?
The inner pills of these demon uncles and aunts could be regarded as an investment in his vengeance!
After all, they also hated Wu Chenzi, didn’t they?
