I sell demon meat in the city

Chapter 298 Closing In (The Finale)

"Your Majesty, have they finished crafting a magical artifact and are they going to block the passage?"

The commotion here was quite significant. At this moment, a group of powerful demons, led by the Golden-Winged Lion King, had gathered near the Valley of Ten Thousand Saints, all looking at the black hole with trepidation.

The Demon Queen stared at the vibrating membrane, her heart filled with resentment. "Your Majesty, are we just going to let this go, this is how you settle our son's score?"

The enemy who killed their son was only a wall away from them, but they couldn't do anything to him.

Several years have passed, and they now know who the powerful figure guarding Mount Sanqing is: the peerless genius of the Jade Void Sect who broke through to the Nascent Soul stage before the age of one hundred, the Azure Phoenix Daoist Lord Yu Qingge.

He is also Lu Xingyun's master.

So what's the point of seeking revenge?!
It was quite difficult when there was only Meng Qi at the beginning. After all, the attacks of the little girl were ineffective against those with the Nascent Soul cultivation, and those below the Nascent Soul level were no match for her. In addition, the strange and unusual things that appeared in her hands from time to time also made them tremble with fear.

In a world devoid of spiritual energy and populated mostly by ordinary people, so many weapons with power comparable to their cultivation levels have been created.

Therefore, the Golden-Winged Lion King has almost given up on conquering that world.

But despite giving up, they had other plans for the Halloween Valley area.

"You think I don't want to claim it even if I can?"

The Golden-Winged Lion King glared at the Demon Queen with annoyance and warned her, "If you don't want to die, you'd better behave yourself. Don't even mention Lu Xingyun, even that little girl Meng Qi is not someone you can handle."

There's also the Third Princess of the Dragon Clan. Although the matter of switching the dragon eggs back then hasn't been thoroughly investigated, the Lion King already knows that the Demon Queen was involved, and the Third Princess knows it too. Given the chance, she will definitely tear that ignorant and foolish woman to pieces.

The Demon Queen herself was well aware of this, so even in the Demon Realm, she lived in constant fear, not daring to leave her cave without the Lion King by her side.

Not to mention revenge.

The once mighty Queen of the Demon Realm is now living such a miserable and pathetic life; she is probably the only one in history to have done so.

The Golden-Winged Lion King glanced at his wife, knowing what she was thinking, but he was too lazy to pay attention to her. He simply turned his head and whispered a few words to his confidant.

The confidant nodded to indicate that he understood, then called the White Wolf Guard Captain, and they left together.

The buzzing sound lasted for almost a day, until dusk when the opened membrane channel finally closed up to just a small hole the size of a palm.

Crack!

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, causing all the demons and the three masters and disciples on the other side of the membrane to look up at the same time.

Is Heaven applauding us?

Xiao Qi muttered under her breath, somewhat dissatisfied, "With this much energy, why not just close the membrane wall quickly? What are you doing, making such a mess?"

Crack!

As Xiao Qi finished speaking, another bolt of lightning suddenly struck, but this time the sound was not loud, though it was very close to them.

So close to the membrane wall, and the fiery red lightning seemed to be able to turn corners, a tiny sliver of it actually managed to pass through the palm-sized hole and enter the Sanqing Mountain secret passage, where it exploded on Xiao Qi's head with a bang.

Xiao Qi:
Yu Qingge & Lu Xiaowu:
Unable to see what the lightning did as it passed through the hole, the demons and the lion king assumed that the heavens were helping to close the passage and repair the membrane.

After all, after the lightning struck, the palm-sized hole rapidly shrank, much faster than before, until it finally closed completely. Then, ripples spread across the void like water, layer upon layer, rising and falling.
Once everything was completely calm, the membrane completely merged with the void, leaving no trace even upon close inspection.

But the Lion King knew that no matter how well the repairs were done, it was impossible to completely restore the original state, and there was always a chance that a hole would break open again someday.

"Your Majesty, shall we bring them over?"

At this moment, the White Wolf Guard Chief approached the Lion King and asked in a low voice.

The Lion King was still looking up at the void when he heard this. Without turning his head, he said, "Let them enter the Valley of All Saints."

Before long, the white wolf and the bear demon led a group of old, weak, sick, and disabled demons, whose cultivation levels were generally not high, into the Valley of Ten Thousand Saints.

"From now on, this is your territory. You can decide which area to live in yourselves. But there's one thing you must remember: no matter what happens or what situation arises, no one is allowed to step out of the Valley of Ten Thousand Saints without the King's permission. Do you understand?"

A horse demon with a single eye on its forehead complained, "What does this mean? Are you telling us to abandon our original territory and come to this Valley of Ten Thousand Saints, where spiritual energy is scarce and dangerous? Is the Great King abandoning us and leaving us to fend for ourselves?"

The white wolf looked at the one-eyed horse demon and said indifferently, "Are you blind? The membrane has already closed. Where is there any danger here? As for the scarcity of spiritual energy, does it make any difference to you whether there is more or less spiritual energy?"

This is a veiled criticism that their cultivation has reached its limit and that it's the same no matter where they are.

"In short, you can stay wherever I tell you to. If you don't want to stay, that's fine too. Then don't stay in the demon realm. Go wherever you want."

After speaking, White Wolf glanced indifferently at the group of old, weak, sick, and disabled people, then turned and left.

On the other side, watching as the membrane completely closed without a trace, the three masters and disciples breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Qi, with her messy, charred hair, said with lingering fear, "Thank goodness it closed. Thank goodness there's no Heavenly Dao here."

Before she could finish speaking, Yu Qingge slapped her on the head. She was exasperated. "Don't you ever learn your lesson? You think you haven't been slapped hard enough?"

Xiao Qi tightly shut her mouth and made a zipping motion above it, indicating that she wouldn't say anything more and wouldn't dare to.

Yu Qingge drifted out of the secret passage, feeling exhausted. Even with magical treasures, repairing them would still consume spiritual energy.

At this moment, I am physically and mentally exhausted.

"Qingge, how is it?"

"It's closed. Go ahead and look if you want."

A group of people rushed into the secret passage, bumping right into Xiao Qi and Lu Xiaowu who were about to come out.

"Hey? Xiao Qi, what happened to your hair?"

"Did you throw a bomb at your own head?"

"No way, what kind of bomb only blows up hair and nothing else?"

"Why is it so charred?"

Su Changhe looked at Xiao Qi's scorched hair and blackened forehead, remained silent for a long time, and then asked Lu Xiaowu in a puzzled tone, "What did she do to be struck down by the Heavenly Dao?"

cleaved by the Heavenly Dao?

Meng Shulan stared wide-eyed at her daughter in astonishment. "She's really got some skills. She even dares to offend the Heavenly Dao!"

Do you want to die?

Xiao Qi huffed, "Does it have to do something for me to chop me up? Can't I just do nothing and let it chop me up whenever it wants?"

Lu Xiaowu:
Everyone:.
No, do you mean many people dislike dogs?
Even the Heavenly Dao can't stand it and wants to strike you down?

Lu Xiaowu helplessly raised his hand to rub her spiky hair, then put his arm around her shoulder and walked out.

"You brat, you're nothing like me."

Meng Shulan muttered a dissatisfied comment at her daughter's retreating figure, then ignored her. Her curiosity about the membrane closing up was drawn back, and she quickly stepped inside.

But Lin Qingquan stood still, staring at the hand Lu Xiaowu had placed on Xiao Qi's shoulder, and for some reason, he wanted to take it off.

Three months later, a loud rumble suddenly echoed from the long-quiet Sanqing Mountain.

Yu Qingge immediately appeared at the location where the sound came from, which was an ancient teleportation array that was already surrounded and connected to the Sanqing Palace.

The intricate runes disappeared, and a delicate bamboo basket appeared in the array, containing three storage bags and a rolled-up scroll.

She waved her hand and took the basket out of the formation, then opened the scroll.

"Is this Xiaolong?"

Su Changhe arrived a step later, and just as he came over, he saw the scroll being unfurled.

The boy on the other side was about ten years old. He was dressed in white brocade, with silver hair tied back. He had delicate features and two horns on his forehead.

In the bottom right corner of the drawing, a line of words was written in ballpoint pen: Sister, this is what I look like now, don't forget me!

The older sister that Xiaolong keeps talking about is now traveling the world in a car.

Xiao Qi and Lu Xiaowu set off half a month after the membrane closed, partly for tourism and partly to check for any remaining traces.

Just like the snake demon who tried to take over the Fairy Maiden Temple in Northeast China.

Surprisingly, the two of them actually found one.

This book is finally coming to an end. The total word count is more than I expected, but the expression isn't as good as I anticipated. This is probably due to my insufficient skill and limited writing ability. I still need to continue reading and learning.

There will be some extra chapters later, but not many. Thank you to all the readers who have supported and followed the story!

My next book is a post-apocalyptic science fiction novel. The first three chapters have passed the editor's review, but I haven't come up with a good title yet. I'm still brainstorming and imagining it. I hope you readers will continue to support me.

Thanks!
