Shushan Earthly Immortal

Chapter 320 Snow Lodge devises a plan, catching a turtle in a jar (6K+ words, requesting monthly votes at the end of the month~)

Kangnan, Qionghai.

The lion landed on the hilltop on the west bank of Qionghai Lake.

The lion, as large as a white elephant, was extremely eye-catching. Its white fur and green mane were already widely known. Its arrival drew gasps of surprise from the mountain hermits.

"Hey! Lion King!"

"Look, it's Abbot Yun!"

"The lions of Lion Rock have finally returned."

"..."

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

The lion found a huge rock and lay down on it. He thought he was going straight to kill the demon, but his master said he needed to make some preparations and they had come to Qionghai again. In fact, the lion knew in his heart that his master just wanted to see that woman again.

Cheng Xinzhan was unaware that the lion was secretly plotting against him again. He genuinely intended to come to Qionghai to make some preparations. If it were just the Five Poisons King alone, with his current wealth and abilities, he might actually dare to take the risk. But the Five Poisons King was not alone; he had thousands of Southern Demon Soldiers under his command, and the Zhuanxu Dragon Cave was a treacherous and intricately complex place that was easy to defend but difficult to attack. If he were to fight alone, it would truly be suicide.

We must rely on the power of the Xuanmen (mystical sect).

Qionghai Sword Pavilion and Zhuanxu Dragon Cave are sworn enemies, only four or five hundred miles apart. Qionghai Sword Pavilion is the core of the Kang-Dian front and has been fighting each other for nearly ten years. Their positions and blood have long since forged a deadly enmity. If Qionghai Sword Pavilion expresses its desire to attack Zhuanxu Dragon Cave, it has no reason not to support it and will only cooperate fully.

Cheng Xinzhan walked into the thatched hut he had built here many years ago. It was still intact despite the heavy snow, and the interior was spotless. However, he remembered that he had only built the hut for shade and had not inscribed any dust-repelling restrictions.

Before he could think much about it, he heard that someone had come to visit him.

"But the abbot of Yun Temple has returned to the mountain, and Lu Linqing of Emei requests an audience."

Upon hearing an unfamiliar name, Cheng Xinzhan was somewhat puzzled. He looked up and saw a figure standing on the shady path in front of the hut. Since the person was already outside the hut, it wouldn't be right not to see them, so he said...

"Fellow Daoist, please come into my hut for a chat."

Then, Cheng Xinzhan saw a figure in white slowly enter the hut amidst the wind and snow. This person looked very young, almost like himself, tall and elegant, with a slender back and waist, and a dignified and imposing presence. He was of extraordinary appearance and bearing.

"Master Yun, I apologize for my intrusion."

The man smiled and bowed.

Cheng Xinzhan returned the bow and pointed to the prayer mat on the ground, saying,

"Fellow Daoist, you are too polite. Please have a seat."

After the two sat down, Cheng Xinzhan said,

"Fellow Daoist, with your graceful posture and jade-like beauty, you remind me of someone."

Upon hearing Cheng Xinzhan's comments, Lu Linqing's face, which was usually expressionless and as cold as an ancient well, immediately broke into a warm smile.

"Oh? I wonder who you're referring to?"

Cheng Xinzhan then answered,
"He is also a highly accomplished person from your sect. I met him once before. He is known as Miechenzi. I found him to be a person of refined elegance and otherworldly grace. Your aura is quite similar to his."

Lu Linqing stared at Cheng Xinzhan, remaining silent for a long time.

Cheng Xinzhan was a little confused. Had he said something wrong?
"Haha, Abbot Yun is truly a remarkable person!"

Lu Linqing suddenly burst into laughter.

"How come he's considered a remarkable person?"

Just then, another clear and melodious female voice rang out, and immediately afterward, a woman in a yellow dress walked into the thatched hut with practiced ease, adding a touch of warmth to the cold winter hut.

"Junior Sister Zhou is here."

Lu Linqing nodded in greeting.

Zhou Qingyun first nodded to Cheng Xinzhan, then returned the greeting to Lu Linqing, and smiled.

"Senior brother said that Abbot Yun is a wonderful person, why do you sigh like that?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Linqing burst into laughter.

"Master Yun said I have the grace of a pine tree and the elegance of a willow, as pure as jade in autumn frost, and I am just like Miechenzi. Junior sister, don't you think Master Yun is a wonderful person?"

Zhou Qingyun smiled upon hearing this, glanced at Cheng Xinzhan, then at Lu Linqing, and said,
"That's right, that's right!"

Zhou Qingyun thought to himself, "When have the disciples of this sect ever seen Lu Linqing smile like this? It turns out it's because of your comment, Daoist brother." But Daoist brother's comments always seem to strike a chord, so it's not surprising. Even Elder Ye, a man so detached and carefree, was moved by your praise and has always remembered your kindness. How could the usually aloof Lu Linqing be any different? Besides, your comment praised two people at the same time.

Cheng Xinzhan was still completely confused, not knowing why the two were laughing.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Qingyun explained,

"Master, you may not know, but Senior Brother Lu is none other than the direct disciple of Master Miechenzi."

Cheng Xinzhan suddenly realized and smiled.

"I see. No wonder it looks so familiar to me. I suppose Fellow Daoist Lu must have fully inherited the true teachings of the Extinction of Dust Mystery."

At this moment, Lu Linqing's fondness for Cheng Xinzhan had surpassed that of most of his fellow Emei disciples. He smiled and shook his head.
"Master's skill is beyond compare; I am still far behind. It is you, Abbot Yun, who is superior."

His eyes shone brightly as he looked at Cheng Xinzhan.
"His rampage in the Demon-Sealing Tower was unstoppable, which I greatly admire and admire. However, since the Abbot came out of the tower, he has been in seclusion to study the profound mysteries. I have visited him several times but have not been able to see him, which I regret. So when I saw the Abbot come out of seclusion, I was anxious and rashly came to visit him."

Cheng Xinzhan finally understood why the stranger had come to her door, and asked,
"Could it be that you were also in the tower at that time, fellow Daoist?"

Lu Linqing took the road.
"That's right. At that time, I was imprisoned in the tower and watched the abbot slay demons and ascend to the top."

Cheng Xinzhan smiled and said,
"So it turns out we were old acquaintances."

As Cheng Xinzhan spoke, he took out a tea set from the virtual world and used snow to boil water to brew tea for everyone.

Watching Cheng Xinzhan's graceful movements, as if she were an immortal descending to earth, Lu Linqing couldn't help but sigh at Zhou Qingyun.
"No wonder the fellow disciples of both Qionghai and Xichuan Sword Pavilions say that Abbot Yun is worth getting to know better. It's true that seeing is believing. It's just a pity that I, Lu, have been guarding the Sword Gate for so long and regret that I haven't been able to befriend Abbot Yun sooner."

Zhou Qingyun accepted the tea that Cheng Xinzhan handed her, smiling without saying a word.

Cheng Xinzhan handed another cup to Lu Linqing and said with a smile,

"Fellow Daoist, your words are too kind."

Lu Linqing was in a great mood, smiling constantly.

"To be honest, especially after the abbot killed that dragon—I heard when I was on duty in the tower that it was a demonic dragon that Li Yuanhua had been unable to subdue for a long time. Ever since then, every time I see Li Yuanhua, I make fun of him. Seeing his dark face makes me happy, hahaha—"

Cheng Xinzhan was somewhat surprised by what he heard and didn't know how to respond.

Zhou Qingyun timely conveyed her explanation to Cheng Xinzhan via telepathy.
"The faction of Master Miechenzi in the sect is at odds with the faction of Master. Master Miechenzi especially dislikes Master's wife, and Li Yuanhua has been working under Master's wife for many years."

She took a sip of tea, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and changed the subject, asking...

"The abbot has been in seclusion for a long time, why did he suddenly come to Qionghai?"

Lu Linqing took a sip of tea and found it very refreshing. He then looked over at Cheng Xinzhan.

Cheng Xinzhan didn't answer but asked a question in return.
How is the fighting going along the Kang-Dian front recently? Is it intense?

Upon hearing this, Lu Linqing said,

“Master Yun, take a look around you. It’s so lively around Qionghai Lake. I was on duty at Jianmen before, and as soon as my return was due, I was sent to Qionghai Lake. There hasn’t been a single day of peace here.”

He chuckled again as he spoke.

"More and more people are coming to Qionghai Lake, and everyone is building houses around it. Among the surrounding areas, Lion Mountain has the best feng shui. Land on this mountain is already extremely valuable. When I first came here, I was a little curious about why this mountain was called Lion Mountain. It doesn't look like it at all. Later, I asked someone and found out that the abbot originally released lions here to build his house."

Cheng Xinzhan looked around and found that this place was indeed much more lively than when Jian Ge had first moved here. The seaside was full of houses and markets, bustling with people. And with so many Xuanmen cultivators gathered here, one could see how fierce the battle was at the front.

Cheng Xinzhan took a sip of tea and said,
"That's right. I have been traveling the world and have been staying in Xikang for ten years. It is time for me to leave."

Zhou Qingyun's hand holding the teacup trembled, causing ripples in the cup. Fortunately, Lu Linqing was focused on Cheng Xinzhan and did not notice.

He went on to say,
"As the saying goes, every beginning must end. I have spent ten years in Xikang, where I have seen many beautiful sights and made many friends. Now that I am about to leave, I also want to do something for this land. Currently, there are three fronts in Xikang. The demonic forces in the west and north are hiding and holding their ground. Only the Five Poison Demon King in the south is frequently leading troops to harass the border. The war is raging. So I came here."

Zhou Qingyun lowered her head and drank her tea, but in her heart she wondered, did he come to the south for my sake?

Upon hearing this, Lu Linqing slammed his fist on the table and cheered.

"Excellent! Abbot, you are truly a chivalrous and righteous hero! What are your thoughts, Abbot?"

Cheng Xinzhan then said,
"To eliminate evil, one must punish the ringleader. I have come here naturally to kill the Five Poison Kings."

Lu Linqing and Zhou Qingyun's expressions changed.

"The Five Poison Kings? That's a fourth realm!"

Zhou Qingyun said urgently.

Lu Linqing, however, said excitedly.
"Master Yun, this Five Poisons King is not easy to kill; he's a shameless old scoundrel!"

"I would like to hear the details," Cheng Xinzhan said.

Disgust flashed in Lu Linqing's eyes as he continued,

"This demon shouldn't be called the Five Poisons King, I think it should be called the Rat King! This demon uses the Zhuanxu Dragon Cave as its core and digs tunnels underground, almost hollowing out the entire underground area along the Kang-Dian line!"

"He often led his troops to raid Kang through the underground cave, but he was cowardly as a mouse. As soon as my master made a move, he would immediately disappear underground and escape back to the Dragon Cave."

“Every time he enters Kang, he not only kills people with poisonous insects, but also releases swarms of insects to gnaw on plants and bore into the earth’s veins. All of this blood, essence, and earth energy is returned to the old thief, allowing him to kill and plunder while simultaneously cultivating his martial arts. Meanwhile, we, who are trying to surround and intercept him, are unable to achieve anything and are instead disturbed from cultivating. It’s infuriating!”

Zhou Qingyun also smiled wryly in agreement.

"Our Qionghai Sword Pavilion has been jokingly called the Cat Pavilion, because we spend all day catching mice in underground caves. What's worse, the underground caves are interconnected, and we are not as familiar with them as the demons. If we chase them to the vicinity of Zhuanxu Dragon Cave, we are likely to get trapped and have difficulty escaping."

Cheng Xinzhan thought for a moment, then said,
"What about flooding?"

Zhou Qingyun shook her head.
"We tried, but the demons transferred from the Southern School to Zhuanxu Dragon Cave are all skilled in water, and there are many water ghosts, so they are basically unaffected. Moreover, the Dragon Cave is extremely large and connected to an underground river, so it can drain away any amount of water."

"What about burning it?"

“It’s no use. We’ve tried it, but Longdong is connected to the Yangtze River, so it’s very convenient to bring water here.”

"How about sealing it with soil, rocks, and sand?"

Zhou Qingyun nodded.
“That’s one method, but we can’t fill the soil as fast as he can dig it. And there’s another problem: we can’t make too much noise with these measures and the demon-slaying underground. Because the demon’s burrowing has its own rules, it can burrow so that it doesn’t collapse. If we make too much noise inside, it can easily cause the ground to sink and collapse. Several places have collapsed this year.”

"Again."

Lu Linqing frowned deeply.
"The devil doesn't care about the future, and he's more willing to risk everything than we are. There are some things they can do that we can't, like this time when they spread the plague in Sichuan. It's not that we don't know how, it's just that we can't!"
"If you really want to resolve this matter, it's actually extremely simple. Can he dig as fast as I sink into the ground? Just roll and grind the ground with sword energy, plowing through northern Yunnan. What earth caves or dragon caves can stop me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qingyun said,

"Senior brother, don't speak in anger. What kind of karma would it create if we really plowed up northern Yunnan? There are still a lot of ordinary people living in Liangshan and Juque. If the earth really collapses, wouldn't all these ordinary people be buried in the earth? Moreover, the Zhuanxu Dragon Cave is connected to the earth veins of southern Kham and northern Yunnan for thousands of miles. How could it be overturned?"

Lu Linqing slammed his hand on the table.
"If you ask me, we shouldn't have locked that old thief up in the Zhuanxu Dragon Cave! How could the demonic path possibly find such an ancient secret realm? If it weren't for our master..."

"Senior brother, watch your words!"

Zhou Qingyun interrupted Lu Linqing.

Lu Linqing realized he had spoken out of turn and shut his mouth in resentment.

Cheng Xinzhan refilled their teacups and said softly,

"One must be wary of harming others for fear of breaking the vase; even a wise man can be deceived. This has been the way of things for tens of thousands of years in the battle between good and evil; otherwise, how would one distinguish between them?"

"Ah, the abbot is right."

Lu Linqing picked up the teacup and looked at Cheng Xinzhan.

"Does the abbot have a good plan?"

Cheng Xinzhan pondered for a moment, then said,

"According to what the two of you just said, we cannot stop the bandit leader from outside the Dragon Cave while he is out of the cave. We also cannot forcefully attack the Dragon Cave from the ground, as this may damage the earth's veins and cause a sinkhole."

"In that case, there is only one way left. I heard from Fellow Daoist Zhou that the reason your sect's founder chose the Zhuanxu Dragon Cave to suppress the demons is because it is the place where the ancient emperor released the dragon. The interior is extremely solid, and the dragon's power cannot break it. Therefore, if we attack and kill the Five Poison Heavenly King inside the Dragon Cave, no matter how big the commotion is, it will not affect the earth's veins."

Lu Linqing and Zhou Qingyun exchanged a glance, feeling that Cheng Xinzhan's words seemed to say something, yet also seemed to say nothing at all. If they could kill demons in the Demon Cave, then why would Qionghai Sword Pavilion have been locked in a ten-year standoff with Zhuanxu Dragon Cave?
The problem is, who dares to go in?
Lu Linqing considered his master to be an incredibly arrogant person, whose magical power was approaching the fifth realm, and who had never mentioned entering the Dragon Cave to slay demons.

Cheng Xinzhan ignored their expressions and continued speaking.

"But there are still two problems. First, how do we get into the Dragon Cave? Second, how do we lock the Dragon Cave after we get in to prevent the Five Poison Kings from escaping?"

After Cheng Xinzhan finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Qingyun.
"Back then, the Dragon Cave was in the hands of your sect. Your sect should have underground geomantic maps, right? Your sect must know how many entrances and exits there are and where they are located."

"I think that no matter how much the Five Poisons Heavenly King expands the cave, he must be expanding outwards along those few entrances and exits. He can't easily break through the inner wall of the Dragon Cave, otherwise he wouldn't have been suppressed for so long. Furthermore, the Dragon Cave is incomplete, and the dragon energy and earth energy have all escaped, so he has no need to occupy the Dragon Cave anymore. Therefore, I estimate that the hole he dug out in order to break the seal should have been resealed by him."

"So, if we want to get in, we have to go in through the entrance and exit. Once inside, we need to block up the entrances and exits, along with the gap where the demon broke the seal, and trap them like turtles in a jar."

Seeing Cheng Xinzhan's serious expression, Lu Linqing also became interested, and his eyes gleamed with excitement. He said,
"Does the Abbot truly intend to enter the cave? Is the Abbot confident he can contend with those from the Four Realms?!"

Lu Linqing knew that Cheng Xinzhan had killed the Seven Washes Dragon, and should be considered a top figure in the Three Realms. He himself dared not say that he could defeat him, but the Three Realms and the Four Realms were worlds apart.

Cheng Xinzhan smiled at Lu Linqing.

“Fellow Daoist Lu, once we reach our level, how can we go further if we don’t challenge the Four Realms and push ourselves? Besides, it’s not shameful to lose to the Four Realms; we can always find a way to escape.”

"Haha, that makes sense! Let's go together! Let's go together!"

Lu Linqing was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then laughed and agreed. He considered himself to have been unruly and extremely bold since childhood under his master's care, but he never expected to encounter someone even bolder than himself. However, as this person said, at his level, how could he advance further without taking a gamble? Besides, if outsiders dared to venture into the lion's den, should his own Xuanmen Emei lineage retreat at this time? What would become of his reputation? The worst outcome was simply abandoning his physical body and using his primordial spirit to escape through sword flight.

Cheng Xinzhan smiled and nodded upon hearing this. He did not refuse. Finding a helper to accompany him was one of his purposes in coming to Qionghai. Having a helper was much better than fighting alone. In addition, only by bringing along someone from the Xuanmen sect, and someone of sufficient importance, could he attract reinforcements if he was no match for the Five Poisons Heavenly King, such as Miechenzi, who was nearby at Lugu Lake.

His original idea was to invite Ye Yuanjing, whose Taiyi Dividing Light Sword Technique, known for its flowing light and soaring clouds, should be incredibly effective in a confined cave. However, as the saying goes, the older one gets, the more afraid of death one becomes, and he wasn't sure if Ye Yuanjing would dare to take the risk with him. But unexpectedly, someone even more suitable offered himself up.

This person was of exceptionally high seniority, being the direct disciple of Mie Chenzi, and his words revealed a great deal of disdain for Li Yuanhua, suggesting that his strength must be considerable. Moreover, Cheng Xinzhan secretly activated his Azure Eyes to examine this person closely and discovered that the light of this person's primordial spirit was dazzling and no weaker than his own. Cheng Xinzhan knew very well how powerful his own primordial spirit was, so he estimated that this person should have the combat strength of the Upper Three Tribulations, making him an excellent ally.

The key is that this person is arrogant and proud, just like his master. There is no need to persuade him much; a few words of praise are enough to convince him. Most people really don't have the courage to go into the cave with him to kill the demon.

Cheng Xinzhan also said,
“I’m not acting recklessly. I have a cultivation method that is naturally effective against the Five Poisonous Insects, so I’m fairly confident in fighting the Five Poisonous Heavenly King. Moreover, since Fellow Daoist Lu has been imprisoned in the tower, you should have heard that I have a special magical fire technique that can injure people at the fourth level without any problem. By the way, Fellow Daoist Lu, you are a high-ranking disciple of Emei, so you should also have methods to injure people at the fourth level?”

Lu Linqing laughed loudly upon hearing this.

"I have heard of the Abbot's divine fire. It is said that he vanquished demons along the way, burning both body and soul, and his divine power is extraordinary. I think I will finally be able to witness it this time. As for me..."

Lu Linqing pointed to himself.

"My sword is not bad at all!"

Cheng Xinzhan smiled and nodded, then looked at Zhou Qingyun and said,

"In addition, I would like to borrow a sword from Fellow Daoist Zhou, the Moon Soul Sword. I have heard that when the Long-Browed Immortal forged the Seven Cultivation Swords, it was specifically designed to subdue all the poisonous insects in the world. The Moon Soul Sword is the master of the Seven Cultivation Yin Swords and is the best among them."

Zhou Qingyun immediately said,

"I entered the cave with the abbot!"

But Cheng Xinzhan shook his head.
“If Fellow Daoist Zhou doesn’t enter the cave, I have another matter to ask of you. How we get in and how we can escape if we are defeated still depends on Fellow Daoist Zhou.”

Lu Linqing nodded repeatedly, but his thoughts differed from Cheng Xinzhan's. He felt that such an opportunity to slay demons and gain fame was enough for him and Abbot Yun. Over the years, he'd heard so much about the Purple and Green Twin Swords that he was practically sick of it. If the three of them were to kill the Five Poisons King together, people would think it was all thanks to the Green Chain Sword, which wouldn't be good. Besides, his master was constantly humiliated by the sect leader; if he were to slay the Five Poisons King in front of the Qionghai Sword Pavilion, wouldn't that bring honor to his master?

“Yes, yes, junior sister, let Master Yun and I go into the cave, and you can meet us outside.”

Zhou Qingyun wanted to say something more, but Cheng Xinzhan changed the subject.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Fellow Daoist Lu, do you two have any good ideas regarding how to enter the cave and how to lock it, as I just mentioned?"

Zhou Qingyun felt a little worried, but also warmed. She thought to herself, before he left Xikang, he went out of his way to eliminate a powerful enemy in front of her, risking his life to enter the Demon Cave, yet he didn't let her follow him. How could she ever repay such kindness?

She sighed softly inwardly, unsure whether her sorrow or joy had deepened. But she quickly suppressed her emotions, for what she was about to say was crucial to her brother's safety entering and leaving the demon's lair. She began...

"The Zhuanxu Dragon Cave has three entrances, which we call the North Gate, East Gate, and West Gate. The Abbot's guess was absolutely correct. We've explored it, and now all the underground tunnels of the Demonic Sect start from these three entrances. When our Grandmaster sealed the Five Poison Heavenly Kings, he set up restrictions at these three entrances. However, now all the restrictions have been destroyed by the demons and replaced with demonic restrictions. Each entrance is guarded by a Four-Cleansing Golden Core cultivator. As for the entrance that the demons broke the seal at, which we now call the Rat Gate, they've also added restrictions to it, and it's also guarded by a Four-Cleansing Golden Core cultivator."

"In other words, if you want to get inside and prevent the demon from escaping, you have to fool the Golden Core gatekeepers at the four cave entrances and reapply a restriction after entering the cave."

Zhou Qingyun thought for a moment and continued,

"The latter is easier to handle. I'll borrow the 'Bijia Xuan Tie Shield' from Junior Sister Lingyun. It was forged by Senior Uncle Xuanzhenzi using Bijia armor and ten-thousand-year-old cold iron from the bottom of the East Sea. It can be divided into six shields, each capable of withstanding an attack from a Fifth Realm cultivator. It's a protective treasure given to Junior Sister by Senior Uncle Xuanzhenzi. I'll borrow it, divide it into six shields—it can be large or small as needed. I'll divide it into four shields to form giant gates that block the four cave entrances. With the Five Poison Heavenly King's Fourth Realm cultivation, he certainly won't be able to withstand the shield. The other two shields will be carried by the Abbot and Senior Brother as personal defenses."

Lu Linqing nodded.
"I've also heard of this treasure's reputation; it should be effective. But, can you possibly borrow Junior Sister Qi's treasure?"

Zhou Qingyun smiled.

“I raised Junior Sister Lingyun in my arms. I’m just borrowing this treasure for a short time. It’s not like I won’t return it. I’m confident in that.”

Lu Linqing nodded.

"The problem of locking up the demon is solved, and we have another way to protect ourselves, which is a good thing. Another thing is to sneak in without the guards' knowledge. Hmm, I have a magic weapon bestowed upon me by my master called 'Frosty Jade Smoke Net,' which is made by combining 'Arctic Frosty Light Fiend' and 'Water Moon Jade Smoke Fiend.' It can paralyze people, rendering them unable to move. If used on the Four Cleansing Demons, it will be effective for a while, enough time for me to go in and set up the magic shield."

Cheng Xinzhan took over the conversation,
“I also have a magic artifact to deceive people. Fellow Daoist Lu and I will each take charge of two cave entrances. This way, it will be faster and we won’t alert anyone or alarm the demon.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Linqing added,

“Then I’ll take charge of three. I have an avatar that can block two entrances at the same time.”

"No need for that. I also have an avatar, so I can enter the cave at the same time and have a greater chance of success."

Cheng Xinzhan said.

Lu Linqing looked over in surprise.

Cheng Xinzhan smiled, unconcerned, and said again,

"Then there's one last question: how do we lure out the demons in the Dragon Cave without letting the Five Poison Kings escape?"
