After we got married, I relied on my cheap husband to get promoted.

A few days later, Cheng Jiuge was preparing to go to Nanli Medicine Sect. Qinghe knew that they were going back to Nanli Medicine Sect, so he asked them to do a mission on the way.

"The water in the pool at the top of Hanyang Mountain has turned black. Come and take a look."

Cheng Jiuge: "Is it the passage where my husband and I came out of the Demon Realm before? It's the one that made us poisoned by the extreme cold."

Qinghe: "Well, the water in the pool has turned black. I'm afraid it's because the demon king of the demon realm is about to awaken."

Cheng Jiuge: "Is the Demon King really powerful?"

Qinghe: "During the war between the Demon Realm and the Human Realm, the Demon King was surrounded and suppressed by the heads of the ten sects at the same time and returned to the Demon Realm after being seriously injured. After that, the Demon Realm was sealed and he was able to escape from the heads of the ten sects. This shows the Demon King's cultivation. How inscrutable.”

"And...I heard that there was turmoil within the Demon Realm. Originally, the Demon King wanted to return to the human world, but he fell into a coma for some reason due to the turmoil. The comatose man you saw last time when you entered the Demon Realm should be the Demon King, that one He was still awake at that time, and now that so many years have passed, I am afraid that he will really wake up. "

"But we're not sure about this yet. You guys should stop by first to see what's going on."

Cheng Jiuge: "Okay."

After cleaning up, Cheng Jiuge and Zhong Lixiu set off. Because Cheng Jiuge wanted to take Zhong Lixiu to relax, the two of them did not fly with swords. Cheng Jiuge sat in front on a horse, and Zhong Lixiu sat behind her. So we went down the mountain.

All the way out of Wuxiao City, we entered the suburban forest outside the city, passed through the suburban forest, and then arrived at the villages and small towns outside the city...

They walked and stopped along the way, looking at the scenery and resting, but Cheng Jiuge still remembered what happened at Hanyang Mountain, so after playing for ten days, they reached the top of Hanyang Mountain.

At this time, there is heavy snow here, and the dripping water turns into ice. When you step on it, the snow reaches your knees. Cheng Jiuge and Zhong Lixiu were both wearing big cloaks, and Cheng Jiuge even got a protective cover for Zhong Lixiu.

At this time, there were still disciples of the Wuji Sword Sect guarding the place. When they saw the two figures, they immediately became vigilant and asked, "Who is it?"

Cheng Jiuge took out the token with one hand and said, "It's us."

Several disciples immediately saluted, "Greetings to my junior uncle and junior master's wife."

Cheng Jiuge: "How's it going?"

Disciple of the Wuji Sword Sect: "The cold pool has become very dark. It was a little bit dark at the beginning, but now it is very dark, and there is still black gas."

Cheng Jiuge and Zhong Lixiu walked over and took a look. There was indeed black air all around the cold pool, or it could be said that it was actually demonic air, but it was very light.

Cheng Jiuge used a purification technique, and the large piece of black energy quickly disappeared, but within a short while, it emerged from under the cold pool again.

Cheng Jiuge looked at Zhong Lixiu, "I remember that the passage here is sealed. Why did the demonic energy seep out?"

Zhong Lixiu pondered for a moment, "Then it can only be said that the power is too overbearing and can pass through the seal."

Cheng Jiuge frowned, "Is it possible that the seal will fail?"

Zhong Lixiu: "Yes."

Cheng Jiuge and him looked at each other, "It seems that the Demon Realm is really making big moves." Cheng Jiuge knelt down and was about to extend his hand downward when Zhong Lixiu took her hand and said, "Don't touch it."

It was because of this that the two of them suffered from the extreme cold poison last time.

Cheng Jiuge: "I didn't want to touch it, I just wanted to put it on the water to explore the situation."

Zhong Lixiu: "Danger."

Cheng Jiuge pulled his hand back, "Okay, I won't touch it."

At this time, bubbles suddenly appeared on the water surface. Cheng Jiuge pulled Zhong Lixiu back a few steps. After a while, the bubbles disappeared. Cheng Jiuge observed for a while and found nothing. He thought Maybe there is some air.

Zhong Lixiu: "I'll tell Senior Brother Qinghe about the situation."

"Okay." Zhong Lixiu sent a message to Qinghe, and Cheng Jiuge walked to the disciples' camp. There was a fire burning there, and everyone gathered around to warm themselves up. After all, it was really too cold here.

Cheng Jiuge mainly reminded them, "Are you the ones guarding here every day?"

"Little Master Qi, no, we and the disciples at the foot of the mountain take turns coming up to guard."

Cheng Jiuge: "Then what I'm going to say next, you should also tell the disciples at the foot of the mountain. If you find that something is about to come out or something is coming out of the cold pool, then each of you doesn't need to worry about who he is. Things should run away first!”

Several disciples didn't quite understand why.

Cheng Jiuge pointed at Hantan, "When your junior uncle and I came out from here, do you know where this passage is connected? It is the Demon King's mansion. If something comes out of here, what do you think it will be?"

Several disciples suddenly realized, "Yes, Junior Wife, we understand."

Cheng Jiuge: "It's best to have a teleportation talisman or a flying talisman to help you escape quickly."

"Yes."

Cheng Jiuge took out another bottle of elixir, "This is the Reling Pill. It won't be good if you stay in such a cold place here for a long time. This can resist the cold."

"Yes, thank you, little mistress."

"Yes. By the way, if the black air there becomes more and more serious, you must report it in time."

"Yes."

Over there, Zhong Lixiu also reported to Qinghe, and the two left here. As soon as they left, the cold pool that was originally filled with black air suddenly began to bubble in a large area, as if the water was boiling and kept bubbling.

However, the surrounding wind and snow were too heavy, and the disciples of the Wuji Sword Sect didn't feel anything, so they didn't notice it.

After Cheng Jiuge and Zhong Lixiu came down the mountain, they continued to the south of Li Yaozong and passed Taicheng. When Zhong Lixiu looked at these two words, he thought of the man who was next to Cheng Jiuge. He never appeared again. .

After entering Taicheng, Cheng Jiuge also thought about it, but he was soon attracted by the spiritual pets for sale next to him.

Zhong Lixiu looked at her and looked at one of the beautiful spiritual pets with colorful feathers, "Have you thought of that person?"

Cheng Jiuge: "Huh? Who?"

Zhong Lixiu pursed his lips and said nothing.

Cheng Jiuge looked at him and suddenly realized something. He pulled him helplessly to a shop selling spiritual pets, "Don't be jealous, that person is probably an enemy. Which one do you want? I'll buy it for you."

Zhong Lixiu then carefully looked at the spiritual pets, and finally chose a little turtle, "That's it."

Cheng Jiuge: "Are you sure? It's so dark." It means it doesn't look good.

Zhong Lixiu: "Well, it's easy to take care of."

Cheng Jiuge: "Boss, how do you sell this?"

Boss: "Hey! One hundred high-grade spiritual stones! One turtle has been passed down for three generations. It will still be there if people leave. Just give this turtle some food. It can live for a long time and will never die." It just looks a bit ugly. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be just that little money.

Cheng Jiuge raised his eyebrows, "So awesome? Okay, let's just have this one." Cheng Jiuge took it out and handed it to the boss, then gave the little turtle to Zhong Lixiu, "Take it, this turtle represents our long-lasting relationship."

Cheng Jiuge didn't mind saying nice things to Zhong Lixiu.

As expected, Zhong Lixiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly when he heard it. He carefully took the turtle and looked at it for a while before putting it in the storage bag. (End of chapter)
