It's just a simulation game, how did the fairy become real?

[You have successfully entered the demon realm. The situation here appears different from the information you gathered earlier.]

Although the demon realm is a formidable enemy to the human world, it is paradise for the demon race.

[You quickly infiltrate the demon realm, waiting for the right opportunity, and do everything you can to gather information.]

Since you intend to be an enemy of the Demon King, you must first understand him.

Through your continued investigation, you have learned some things about this generation's Demon King.

What you didn't expect was that the demon king you encountered was different from the demon king that attacked the Taoist sect.

What's even harder to accept is that, in a way, the other party is a benefactor of the Taoist sect.

[As the current Demon King, Xi Meng didn't follow the old adage of fortunes shifting over time. Instead, she directly eliminated the previous generation at their peak.]

Although the official explanation is that the Demon King died suddenly, this is the most plausible explanation.

The path they are pursuing is to close off the demon realm and isolate it from the rest of the world.

Standing in the demon realm, you suddenly feel a sense of bewilderment, as if you've drawn your sword and looked around in vain.

The demon king you sought revenge against died before you.

The new Demon King seems to be making decisions that go against the tide of the demon race.

At one point, you even suspected that this Xi Meng might be a human spy.

Just when you're feeling lost, the scene before you suddenly changes.

The girl you saw last time has reappeared before you.

[However, this time it wasn't a grotto, but a rather ornate-looking hall.]

[Even just being in the main hall, you can clearly feel that subtle yet palpable pressure.]

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Xi Meng looked down at Zhang Yang and said something.

"Long time no see."

Looking at the other person, Zhang Yang suddenly felt a strange sense of relief.

You seem to have changed?

Xi Meng frowned slightly. She could sense that Zhang Yang's hatred for her seemed to have lessened considerably.

There was even a sense of relief?

This is not what she wants.

What Xi Meng wanted was a cultivator who harbored hatred towards her.

It would be best to abandon everything and choose to kill her.

She faces significant resistance within the demon realm, and she needs a dramatic self-inflicted injury to amplify the conflict.

Then eliminate all those that have been exposed.

And at the heart of all this are human cultivators.

Has it changed?

I just felt like I suddenly saw something else.

What exactly are you planning to do to me?

Zhang Yang looked at Xi Meng. If the reason why she didn't kill him cleanly and efficiently during their first meeting was because she had a lingering desire to toy with him, then it was because she was determined to do so.

So far, the other party still shows no intention of making a move.

He even said these things to me, which sounded very intimate. This is definitely not the attitude a demon king should have towards an ordinary cultivator.

"I really underestimate you."

Xi Meng sensed Zhang Yang's changing emotions.

The hatred and anger that had been emanating from this man had completely vanished, replaced by curiosity and a hint of suspicion.

"Can I take this as a compliment?"

"How dare you talk to me like that? Aren't you afraid I'll just kill you?"

"If I had to kill him, I would have done so two years ago."

There's no need to go to such lengths to spare my life.

As for the peony, whether it was truly just a coincidence that it encountered me, perhaps only the Demon King knows the truth.

Zhang Yang had always had doubts about the origin of the peony.

After all, the timing of her appearance was just too perfect.

In addition, given the other party's unwavering support, it seems that the data from that small amount of physical experimentation is not enough to warrant such extensive efforts.

However, if we assume that the other party is a subordinate of the Demon King, then all of this seems to make sense.

"Human cultivators are really annoying."

Xi Meng narrowed her eyes, her gaze flickering as she considered whether or not to kill the other party.

The pawn no longer harbored any hatred towards her; in her plan, Zhang Yang's move was already a waste.

It seems unlikely that keeping it will have much of an effect.

But if it's abandoned now, all the resources invested before will probably be wasted.

Originally, the intention of bringing Zhang Yang in this time was to deepen his hatred for the demon race.

However, without realizing it, he uncovered a lot of information, thus revealing most of the truth.

"You ruined my plans. Give me a reason not to kill you."

"I'd like to know what kind of plan a demon king would carry out on a Golden Core cultivator."

You wouldn't be thinking of using my hatred for demons to eliminate your rivals and then unify the demon realm, would you?

"if not?"

"That's true, thank you for your high regard, Demon King."

But I'm really curious, why did the Demon King choose me?

After all, back then I was just a Golden Core cultivator, very weak.

The Golden Core and the Nascent Soul stage seem to be separated by only one Nascent Soul stage.

But for countless cultivators, that is a realm they can never reach in their entire lives.

"select?

You are simply the fastest-growing and best-performing of the countless chosen Gu worms.

Xi Meng said in a low voice.

Her original plan was to cultivate a powerful pawn.

Then release it at the appropriate time to give other powerful demons a little surprise.

But now this plan probably needs to be changed a little.

"Either submit to me, or die now. Choose one."

An uncontrolled piece is of no value to her.

Even if you've already invested some resources, you shouldn't hesitate to abandon them.

"Of course, I choose to live."

Before Zhang Yang finished speaking, he felt a power that did not belong to him rising within his body.

This force quickly spread throughout his meridians, as if an invisible net had been attached to his body.

"From this moment on, your life is in my hands."

If you dare disobey my orders, I will kill you without hesitation.

“I can do things for you.”

But the condition is that I can only kill those I want to kill, and only kill the demons I want to kill.

"You are not qualified to negotiate with me!"

The moment Xi Meng spoke, an irresistible force suddenly struck Zhang Yang.

However, Zhang Yang did not kneel down as Xi Meng had predicted.

Instead, they stood firmly in place, completely still.

"What you need is not just a chess piece, but a knife."

No?

Before the knife breaks, you must guard against cutting yourself.

"Are you looking for death?"

Xi Meng applied even more pressure, and Zhang Yang's knees were clearly heard cracking as bones broke.

"You need a knife with potential."

And that's exactly what I am.

You won't kill me.

Zhang Yang stared at Xi Meng with certainty. If he wanted to kill him, he wouldn't have needed to go to such lengths, luring him into the demon realm twice.

There's absolutely no need to ask such a question.

If Xi Meng really wanted to kill him, she would have done it the moment he talked back.

The reason I haven't taken action yet is because I still have value to her!

"What I hate most are self-righteous monks!"

The moment Xi Meng slapped down, Zhang Yang, who had been struggling to hold on, collapsed to the ground.

He could clearly feel that all the bones in his body seemed to be broken.
