I sell demon meat in the city

Chapter 243 On the verge of breaking out

How do I fix it?

Lu Xiaowu, who was in a meditative state, opened his eyes, stood up, and respectfully bowed to the Third Princess, saying, "Please give me your guidance, senior."

The Third Princess was very satisfied with Lu Xiaowu's attitude, but she wasn't entirely clear on the specific method. She only said, "According to the information I've received, we need to refine a magical artifact similar to the one used to mend the heavens, so that it can fuse with the membrane wall. Only then can it be considered completely repaired. As for how to refine that artifact..."

She pondered for a moment, then said to the two of them, "I'm going back to the Dragon Palace. My father has lived for ten thousand years, so there are some things he should know better than I do. Even if he doesn't know, my grandfather left behind many ancient slips before he ascended to heaven, so maybe we can find them. You two should stay here for now and wait for me to return."

Thinking of Xiaolong, Xiaoqi said frankly, "Aren't you afraid that even if the membrane is repaired, Xiaolong won't be able to come back? After all, as it stands, that's the only way to get here from our world."

Teleportation arrays can only be accessed from this side; there aren't any on the other side.

Unexpectedly, the Third Princess smiled with relief, "I'm not afraid. Before, I didn't know where he was or whether he was still alive, so I wanted to find out the answer no matter what. But now it's different. I know he's fine and safe, and that's enough. Whether he comes back or not isn't that important."

It's impossible for her not to want to see him, but deep down, the Third Princess feels guilty towards her son. She couldn't protect him when he was just an egg. Now that she's asking him to come back, and she says she can protect him, will he believe her?

So when she said it didn't matter if her son didn't come back, she meant it sincerely.

After the Third Princess left, Xiao Qi stared blankly at one spot for a long time.

It wasn't until his stomach started growling that he snapped out of his daze, grabbed a spirit fruit, and started eating it.

Lu Xiaowu wasn't hungry at first, but seeing how much she enjoyed eating, he got hungry too.

So the two of them ate spirit fruits while checking the treasures in the Demon King's Treasury in their storage rings. They hadn't had time to check them all before, but now that they had time, they decided to take a good look for any ancient slips about the membrane wall.

"All three storage rings are..."

Xiao Qi was astonished; the Demon King was truly wealthy.

"This is only a small amount. A cunning rabbit has three burrows, and it certainly won't keep all its treasures in one place. These are probably less than a quarter of the total."

The demon realm has existed for tens of thousands of years, and there were two demon kings before the Golden-Winged Lion King. The treasures accumulated there certainly cannot be contained in such a small treasure vault.

However, Lu Xiaowu was quite satisfied with having managed to snag these.

"Put these five boxes of spirit crystals away and give them to the mirror when we get back. There are also ten boxes of high-grade spirit stones; I'll keep five boxes here, and you keep the other five. We'll need them for the teleportation array."

Lu Xiaowu carefully planned out everything inside, giving almost all the protective magical artifacts to Xiao Qi in case of emergency.

When Xiao Qi put the petrified dragon egg into her storage ring, she moved it to the side.

Yes, that's right. After seeing Su Changhe and Lin Yan off, she took the dragon egg from the teleportation pillar of the Sanqing Palace.

It's not that I don't trust the Sanqing Palace, but I want to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

After everything was planned out, Lu Xiaowu found a pile of jade slips in the last box.

He moved the box outside, picked up a few items, and probed them with his divine sense. He found that they were all about the application and explanation of demonic arts. It seemed that the Golden-Winged Lion King had collected the innate skills of other demons and wanted to see if they could be used by them.

Therefore, becoming a demon king requires not only its own talent and ability, but also a trump card.

After looking at more than twenty, all of them being roughly the same type, Lu Xiaowu closed the box and stopped looking. Xiao Qi, munching on a spirit fruit, asked indistinctly, "Nothing?"

"No, either it's on your person or somewhere more important, or it's not there."

"If it's not there, it's not there. Anyway, Little Dragon Mom went to look for it, so let's just wait for a while."

At this time, the two were unaware that their attack on the palace had caused a great uproar.

Although the Golden-Winged Lion King did not believe that Han Meizi had sent people to attack its palace, the Demon Queen did.

Even if it wasn't, it's still related to the group of old guys confronting them at the border; they might even be people sent by the man surnamed Zhu.

After all, his son died because of the younger generation of the Zhu family, and the two sides had become mortal enemies, each wishing to get rid of the other as soon as possible.

Therefore, the Demon Queen was filled with murderous intent and wanted to fight the Zhu family patriarch to the death.

An Ruchen and the Jade Void Sect naturally sided with the Zhu family.

Hearing that Su Changhe had gone to his senior sister's place, An Ruchen was already feeling extremely depressed. When she heard the Demon Queen picking a fight and demanding that Han Meizi hand over the Zhu family, she couldn't help but speak up sarcastically, "Is your palace made of tofu? It's now a ruin. Would it have collapsed without the intervention of two Nascent Soul cultivators? Could it be that your own people deliberately destroyed the palace to frame us and make things difficult for Ancestor Zhu?"

All those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage have names and surnames; it is easy to find out who is at the border and who is in a family or sect.

Therefore, Han Meizi quite agreed with An Ruchen's statement. This might really be what he said. The Demon King and Demon Queen wanted to avenge their son and deliberately staged this incident.

As for the Demon King leaving the border and rushing back to the palace, was it just to make the performance more convincing?

"Your Majesty, I believe this matter is also related to the Jade Void Sect."

After losing one of his mounts, the Demon King was unwilling to let the Zhu family off the hook. Although the Demon King returned in person, he was obstructed by the Third Princess of the Dragon Clan. The attack on the palace was very likely related to the Dragon Clan, but under the current circumstances, they dared not provoke the Dragon Clan.

Therefore, the only way the royal palace could be destroyed was through the cunning of the human race, who secretly sent people to infiltrate the demon realm and blow up their royal palace.

It wants revenge for its son; the Zhu family and the Jade Void Sect must both die.

"Damn it, if you want to fight, then fight. I'm not afraid of you!"

A Nascent Soul cultivator from the Jade Void Sect scoffed, "It's just the death of a little lion-tiger. Can't you have another one? It's not like you can't afford to have more. Is it worth offending a major sect and a powerful family for such a trivial thing?"

This is using something the Demon Queen said before to refute it.

The Lion-Tiger Demon King abducted so many female cultivators before, and it wasn't that no one noticed and reported it to the Alliance Leader. What did the Demon Queen say at the time?

"She's just a female cultivator. It's her good fortune that my son has taken a liking to her. As for the accident, my son didn't want anything to happen to her. If anyone has to blame, it's just that she's unlucky and has bad luck. Besides, there are so many female cultivators in your cultivation world. Is it really necessary to go to such lengths to fight against the demon race for the sake of a woman?"

Another Nascent Soul cultivator from the Zhu family chimed in with a straight face, "That's right. Aren't you demons always good at having children? Anyway, this talent isn't that great. Maybe you can have another child who can better inherit the Demon King's talent. You might even want to thank us then."

The expressions on the faces of the surrounding Nascent Soul cultivators were quite varied, all of them trying to suppress their laughter.

But the demon king and demon queen opposite them were so angry that their faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Han Meizi stood in front of everyone, her eyes fixed on the Demon King. A great battle was about to break out!
