Seeing that Fairy Jing didn't understand, the Mountain Patrol Envoy continued, "I don't know what the Qing Banquet is all about. However, because of the Qing Banquet, I obtained the Demon King's Token, which allows me to relax my vigilance within Bi Qingyu's territory. Regardless of whether they are here to participate in the Qing Banquet or not, they will be allowed to enter the depths of the demon territory.
However, the Demon King's Token also clearly states that the area within 65,555 miles of the Demon King's Cave is a forbidden area. Humans aren't allowed to enter.
Just now … Hehe, maybe it's because the flying artifacts of the humans here are too powerful that they managed to sneak in? "
It would've been fine if the Mountain Patrolling Envoy didn't explain, but after hearing this, Fairy Jing was even more confused. She asked in surprise, "You're saying these dozens of human cultivators … are here for the banquet?"
"Yes!
They are here to participate in the banquet! "The Mountain Patroller nodded and said with a serious expression.
Fairy Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She pointed at the flying artifacts that had just been dragged into the swamp and said, "They waved their artifacts like this and came to the banquet in such an aggressive manner?
And this is how you captured them to treat the guests? "
Speaking of this, fairy Jing's heart suddenly jolted. Her expression became thoughtful as if she had understood something.
Sure enough, the Mountain Patrolling Envoy said proudly, "Fairy Jing, you don't know, but my king said that who said the banquet must invite guests?
My banquet invites delicacies!!! "
"Sigh, I understand now!" Fairy Jing waved her hand. "This idea must've been given to my king by the Demon King of Ancient Bell Mountain, right?"
The Mountain Patrolling Envoy was shocked. His tentacle extended a thumb, and the respect on his face increased. "Fairy Jing, you're indeed a human, and you're indeed of my king's bloodline. I'm impressed!
My king just sent out a message saying that the Demon King of Ancient Bell Mountain might come today, and he wants us to be careful … "
"Forget it ~" Fairy Jing's face showed a hint of arrogance. She waved her hand and said, "I'll go greet my king now!"
"Fairy Jing, please …" The Mountain Patrolling Envoy respectfully bowed. He watched as a cloud appeared under Fairy Jing's feet and carried her into the depths of the swamp. Envy appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself, "Humans are humans indeed. I can't compare to her brain.
I only said one sentence, and she understood so much. No wonder she's favored by my king! "
Fairy Jing controlled the cloud to slowly fly toward a direction. There weren't too many Mountain Patrolling Beasts along the way. However, every time she flew over a mountain or swamp, a powerful sense of Origin Qi's't sense would sweep over her.
Fairy Jing turned a deaf ear to all of this. Even when she looked at the scenery she hadn't seen in over 755 years, the dense confusion in her eyes didn't dissipate at all.
After flying for less than an hour, there were fewer and fewer Daemons to the left. The scenery became more and more dangerous. On the mountains and in the swamps, there would often be strange lights that would fly out. They would either sweep across fairy Jing or block her path. Fairy Jing had no choice but to use her heart shell to protect herself. Whenever the tri-colored light of the heart shell came into contact with the rainbow, the rainbow would vanish.
"Stop!"
Just as Fairy Jing was lost in thought, a bell-like voice rang out from the swamp.
"Oh?" Fairy Jing was startled and involuntarily stopped in the air.
Below Fairy Jing, a reef over 65,555 feet in size suddenly moved. With the sound of water, the reef flew out of the water. Layers of demonic clouds appeared on the surface of the reef. After the green light flashed through the demonic clouds, a water creature several thousand feet in size blocked Fairy Jing's path.
Fairy Jing smiled and bowed. "General Xi Shui, I'm Li Jing. I've come to greet you on the orders of my king."
"Li Jing?"
That water creature's head was very big, but his eyes were very small. After blinking a few times, he seemed to remember something, and said with a silly smile, "Oh, this old man remembers, you are that little girl who established a country in the Hidden Immortal Continent!
You came here 955 years ago … "
"Hehe, it was 755 years ago!"
Fairy Jing seemed to have a good impression of General Xi Shui. She smiled and replied, "Old man, you must be sleepy!"
"Haha, 955 years is about the same as 755 years …" General Xi Shui smiled and slowly fell back into the water. He said, "Little girl, you know that this old man likes to sleep, but you still haven't taken out the king's Demon King Token. Aren't you disturbing this old man's sleep?"
"Yes, yes, it's my fault!"
Fairy Jing covered her mouth and smiled. She quickly took out the five-colored beast skin. The beast skin immediately gave off a hazy light that covered Fairy Jing.
Seeing the five-colored beast skin, General Xi Shui's body fell into the swamp and turned back into a huge reef.
Fairy Jing looked up at the huge island a hundred miles away. She took a deep breath and flew over.
As they approached the island, the scenery on the island entered Fairy Jing's eyes.
There were palaces all over the island. These palaces were dazzling with extraordinary auras. Outside each palace, there were water creatures in colorful clothes. They were either carefully walking or holding their breaths while standing respectfully. Powerful auras rushed out of each palace without any concealment.
This was indeed the palace of a Demon King!
Fairy Jing flew to the front of the island, but she wasn't in a hurry to enter. Instead, she raised her hand and pointed at her heart shell. The heart shell was like a bright star that flashed with brilliance. She then pointed at the five-colored beast skin. The beast skin landed on the heart shell. "Whoosh …" The five-colored halo on the beast skin suddenly penetrated the beast skin and turned into the shape of a heart shell that rushed into the air above the island.
"Pop …" Like a bubble bursting in the air, the scenery in front of Fairy Jing suddenly shattered. A five-colored whirlpool in the shape of a heart shell appeared out of nowhere.
"Junior Li Jing has come to greet the king!"
As the ruler of a country, Fairy Jing was very respectful at this moment. She faced the whirlpool in the air and raised her voice.
After a long while, a thunderous voice came out from the whirlpool, "Li Jing?
Oh, it's you.
Why are you only here now … "
As the voice passed, five-colored brilliance flew out of the whirlpool and covered Fairy Jing's body. "Whoosh …" Fairy Jing's body and heart shell were sucked into the whirlpool at the same time and disappeared in a moment.
When Fairy Jing's body reappeared, she was already in an extremely large space!
The space looked similar to a cave, but the walls of the cave were not made of ordinary rocks. Five-colored lights were emitted from the walls of the cave. Faintly discernible demonic clouds were gently drifting, and there were many splashes of water that bloomed and faded from time to time. The walls looked very far away, but as far as the eyes could see, the nearly transparent walls were extremely close. Not only were the innumerable talisman markings on the walls clearly visible, even the water ripples outside the walls could be clearly seen.
Fairy Jing stood still in the space and looked down at the crystal-clear ground under her feet. At this moment, there were auspicious clouds surging on the ground, as if they were dancing in the wind in the sky.
Fairy Jing understood that she had arrived at Bi Qingyu's Demon King Cave.
However, there was one thing she didn't understand. Where on the island was the Demon King Cave?
When she first entered, Fairy Jing thought that she was on the island, which meant that she was in one of the many palaces. But now that she thought about it, Bi Qingyu's demons were all of the Water Race. The palaces on the island were probably an illusion. The Demon King's Cave should be under the island.
When she came in the second time, she made a new discovery. She felt that the Demon King Cave was in a space high up in the sky!
But when this thought appeared in her mind, she couldn't help but laugh. What did the location of the Demon King Cave have to do with her?
What was the point of thinking so much?
"Li Jing, why are you only here now?
Do you think you have the power to fight against this king now that you're in charge of a country? "
Before Fairy Jing could raise her head, a powerful intent came out of nowhere and pressed down like a mountain. A rather unhappy voice sounded in her ears. "Let this king tell you, you're just a human descendant of this king. I, Bi Qingyu, have hundreds of humans like you, if not a thousand. This king can find someone to replace you at any time!"
If it were any other time, Fairy Jing would've panicked and knelt down to beg for forgiveness.
But now, an inexplicable sadness rose from the bottom of her heart. Although Fairy Jing knelt down, she didn't beg for forgiveness like before. "Your Majesty, after this concubine bid farewell to you, I didn't stay in the Thousand Demons Sacred Realm for even a moment. Then, I went deep into the West Ocean to train. In the past two hundred years, I haven't set foot in the three continents.
When this concubine returned to the Hidden Immortal Continent, I saw Your Majesty's Demon King Token. This concubine rushed over without stopping and didn't dare to be negligent! "
"Oh?
Is that so? "
That voice didn't believe Fairy Jing's explanation and said coldly, "This king doesn't care where you went. What this king knows is that because you didn't come in time, you almost delayed this king's important matter.
Therefore, this king must punish you! "
"Yes, this concubine understands!" Fairy Jing's heart was filled with sorrow and resentment.
"However …" That voice changed the topic and said, "The ancestor liked the jade eyes you brought back last time. He said that you've done a great service for Bi Qingyu and wanted to reward you greatly.
Now that I think about it, you've atoned for your crimes. This king won't reward you. "
"It's fine!"
Fairy Jing replied indifferently. "This concubine works for Your Majesty and doesn't ask for any reward."
"Get up!" That voice said, "This king has a few questions for you!"
"Yes!" Fairy Jing stood up and looked up at the top of the space.
At the top of the space, a cluster of dazzling five-colored light was blooming like a star.
Under the light was a huge reef. Precious pearls of various colors were embedded around the reef. Although the pearls were also shining, they were much dimmer than the five-colored light.
Fairy Jing's gaze landed on the light. Illusions of falling flowers and falling leaves or rising and falling tides appeared before her eyes. She turned her eyes and looked away. At that moment, the five-colored light receded and a shellfish several hundred meters in size appeared on the reef.
"Your Majesty …" Fairy Jing was shocked and hastily asked, "May I know what Your Majesty wants to ask this concubine?"
