Chapter 225 Encountering the Bright Chicken at Daqi Mountain
The mountain was especially cold at night.
Ning Fusang was dressed in ordinary clothes, the hem of which was damp with water.
Suddenly, a golden light shone through the miasma. Ning Fusang narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction of the golden light.
"Kick-kick--!"
The rooster's crowing rang out clearly in the darkness.
In the swamp, a large rooster with a golden coat flapped its wings, jumping up and down, sending golden feathers flying everywhere.
In the swamp, an unknown monster, like an earth dragon, surged and chased after the Bright Chicken.
"Giggle!"
The rooster crowed even more mournfully, its toes touching the floating duckweed in the swamp as it ran to the side.
The unknown monster, covered in mud, leaped up, its blood-red maw wide open, about to swallow the Bright Chicken whole.
Just then, a palm strike landed head-on, and the mud-covered monster tilted its head, spat out two giant teeth, and swiftly burrowed into the swamp.
The Radiant Chicken breathed a sigh of relief after surviving the ordeal. The next moment, a vine emerged from the darkness, wrapped around it, and dragged it out of the swamp.
"I barely escaped from the mud beast's mouth, am I going to be strangled by the demonic vines again?" The Bright Chicken was on the verge of tears.
But after it landed, the vines receded like the tide and disappeared completely.
A slender figure emerged from the shadows.
Sensing the threat, the Bright Chicken immediately transformed into human form and said with tears of gratitude, "Thank you so much for saving my life, senior!"
Do you know the way out?
Ning Fusang rescued the Bright Chicken because she had seen this demon in Wuzhou City. She didn't expect that after several days, it would still be on Daqi Mountain.
It was lucky that it wasn't eaten by the monsters on the mountain.
Bright Chicken beamed with delight: "Senior, you've come to the right place! I did come up the mountain from Wuzhou City. Here's what I'll do: I'll give you one of my feathers. Just follow the feather's guidance, and I guarantee you'll be able to get out."
Ning Fusang accepted the golden chicken feather and then asked, "Why didn't you pass through Wuzhou City, but instead took this dangerous route through Daqi Mountain?"
The Bright Chicken sighed, "The demon lord of Wuzhe City doesn't like light, so he won't let me pass through the city."
"I was stopped at Shimen."
Ning Fusang nodded. She was there at the time and naturally knew the whole story.
She asked the Bright Chicken about this because she wanted to get the pass from it.
Ning Fusang was originally wondering if there were any passes for sale in the black market of the demon realm, and she wanted to buy one. Unexpectedly, a demon delivered one to her so quickly.
She asked softly, "Even with a pass, you still won't let me through?"
Bright Chicken nodded resentfully: "Yes, I bought this pass at a high price, and I haven't even used it!"
"Why don't you sell it to me?"
Ning Fusang's words startled the Bright Chicken. It looked at the pass in its hand and handed it over directly.
"Senior has been kind to me, so please take this pass. I would be too embarrassed to accept your crystals."
Ning Fusang smiled and said, "Thank you."
Bright Chicken turned around, unaware of the murderous glint in her eyes.
"Pfft—!" Caught off guard, the Bright Chicken was struck hard and spat out a mouthful of blood. "You?!"
"Since you wanted to kill me, why did you save me?" Bright Chicken couldn't understand. Was she only after his pass?
But I already gave her the pass!
Ning Fusang kicked the Bright Chicken into the swamp to destroy the evidence.
It's about to leave Daqi Mountain, and this direction is likely to be encountered by the demons on Jieyun Mountain. If they question it casually, its whereabouts will be exposed.
Ning Fusang certainly couldn't let it leave alive.
It's all because she was too lucky, while it was both unlucky and weak. Come to think of it, if Ning Fusang hadn't come here, it wouldn't have survived for even half a cup of tea's time.
Ning Fusang opened his palm, and golden chicken feathers slowly floated into the sky, pointing to the path from which the rooster of light had come.
With this guiding chicken feather, Ning Fusang left Daqishan the following afternoon.
Gazing in the direction of Wuzhou City, Ning Fusang clenched his fist, and the chicken feathers turned into specks of golden light and dissipated.
She changed her appearance, blended into the demon race, and obediently lined up, handing over the pass to Hei Mingming.
"Pass."
Hei Mingming waved his hand, signaling her to pass.
After delivering the crystal into the city, Ning Fusang went straight to the small courtyard rented by Chi Leng.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door three times, once long and once short. The people inside the house heard the noise and looked out.
"Is that Junior Sister Ning?"
Yang Ruo was about to get up when Chi Leng said, "I'll go out and take a look. You all stay in the house. If things don't look good, leave through the back door."
Ning Fusang waited for a while before the door opened a crack. Upon seeing the person outside, Chi Leng's expression relaxed.
Upon entering the house and seeing that everyone was there, Ning Fusang felt much more relaxed.
The task is more than halfway complete.
"Junior Sister Ning, are you alright?" Yang Ruo walked around her, checking her for any injuries, and muttered, "The storage bag and flying sword are gone, but it's not worth taking such a big risk to get them."
Xiang Xiaozhi's cheeks flushed with shame and indignation. If she hadn't brought up the matter of the storage bag and flying sword, Ning Fusang wouldn't have risked her life to intercept the Demon Lord of Yunshan.
In those short two or three days, Xiang Xiaozhi felt as if her heart was being boiled with oil on a raging fire.
Fortunately, Ning Fusang returned safely.
But Ning Fusang didn't think the trip was a waste.
Her greatest gain was meeting the Bitter Song Deputy Envoy of the Merfolk.
Although Ku Ge didn't say anything, didn't he give himself a sword sheath?
Ning Fusang hadn't had time to check if there was any hidden secret on the scabbard, but she thought there probably was.
Having been imprisoned in the demon realm for so many years, Ning Fusang did not believe that Ku Ge would give up his only chance to send a message before his death.
At this moment, Min Xianyun and Xu Jianjia groaned, bent over and clutched their chests, their faces turning deathly pale.
"Junior Sister Min, Junior Sister Xu, what's wrong with you?"
Yang Ruo noticed the strange behavior between the two and asked helplessly.
Actually, Xu Qiu's complexion wasn't good either, but she had a stronger ability to endure it and didn't appear as frightening as she seemed.
He Jiaxiu's expression changed, and she said, "The Crimson Blood has taken effect."
Before Ning Fusang came to rescue them, she and Xiang Xiaozhi had drunk the elixir of Yinshuang Pill, which prevented the effects from taking hold. However, under normal circumstances, the antidote should be distributed on the night of the full moon.
That is... today!
Judging from Chi Leng and Yang Ruo's expressions, they were unaware of this matter.
Ning Fusang said, "Please trouble you, senior brother, to fetch a bowl of water. I have some Silver Frost Pills here."
Xu Qiu looked up at Ning Fusang, "Senior Sister Ning?"
She not only intercepted the Cloud Demon Lord's camp and took his storage bag and flying sword, but she even got her hands on the Silver Frost Pill?
Are the guards at the Demon Lord's residence too lax?
He Jiaxiu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Without the Silver Frost Pill to suppress the poison, they would not have been able to leave the demon realm.
The three women drank the antidote, and their physical pain was greatly relieved.
Ning Fusang tossed the storage bag and flying sword she had obtained to He Jiaxiu and the others, saying, "Take a look for yourselves; this is all I took." (End of Chapter)
