Demon King's Pampered Wife

Chu Feng turned his head and looked at her with an unfathomable gaze, "Perhaps if I didn't stop you back then, Chu Jun wouldn't have ended up like this."

Zi Ling was slightly stunned, but Chu Feng suddenly let go of her hand, "Go first, the trial monument opened earlier. I will stay behind to buy everyone some time."

Zi Ling looked at him from top to bottom, as if she was reacquainted with him. This was the first time he saw her, and he held her in high regard. She was also someone who was cold on the outside and would not easily express her thoughts. He never thought that he would actually take such a risk for the sake of the people of the Divine Profound Sect.

Zi Ling did not say much. After all, Chu Feng's Soul Extinguisher Saber was better than her own spell. She turned around and ran deeper into the fog.

Not long after, the Shadow Devil leapt back to her side, "Master, it's great that you're fine!" His words were full of flattery.

Right now, she couldn't see anything, but Zi Ling could feel its existence.

"Shadowfiend, aside from treasures, what other methods can we use to deal with these monsters?" In her previous life, she had a top grade spirit treasure with her. Facing this kind of demon, she was unable to do anything about it.

However, her strength was weak and she didn't have a Soul Treasure with her.

"Master, there's nothing we can do." Shadowfiend replied with a resolute and decisive answer.

"Oh? "Is that so?" Zi Ling showed a somewhat regretful expression, "I also want to grab onto the weaknesses of these monsters. In the future, if I have the chance, I'll grab some for you to eat."

The Shadow Devil's face stiffened, and said in disbelief, "Master, are you really that good?"

Zi Ling sighed lightly, "You were eaten by that demon for my sake. I will find some demon for you to eat to show my guilt."

"Master, it can't be that you made a mistake?" This kind of appearance of the purple silk made it feel really uncomfortable, but the things she said made its heart move.

Zi Ling's expression became serious. "Then forget it. Since you don't need it, I'm too lazy to take the risk." Then, ignoring the Shadow, he quickened his pace.

The Shadow Devil floated behind her, feeling conflicted. After hesitating for half a day, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Master, there's actually a way."

"Oh? If it's too risky, I think we should just forget about it. Since you don't want to make up for it, then I'm too lazy to take action. " Zi Ling continued walking forward without turning her head back.

"Master! Master!" Shadowfiend grew anxious and floated to Zi Ling's side. "Master, there's actually a way to deal with these monsters."

"Then tell me. I can do it. I'll help you deal with a few monsters to make up for it."

The Shadow Devil did not realize that he had become too passive, but he still tried to please her, "Master, in fact, if a demon wants to grow, it has to strengthen its own Monster Core. A Monster Core is like a human's heart, it will die without it. But the monster's monster core was hard to find. It had to sneak into the monster's body and shatter the monster core. Otherwise, the monster would turn into a devil if it got eroded by the demon qi. Master, can you find the monster core and destroy it without anyone knowing? " What the Shadow Devil was most worried about was that its master would send it to find monster cores. If that really was the case, then there was no difference from courting death, so it didn't want to say it out loud.

"It sounds like it's going to be difficult. "Then forget it." The purpose of the Purple Ribbon had already been achieved. So it turned out that there was a way to deal with the demon even without a Soul Treasure.

It took them another day to catch up to Zhao Ting and the others.

"You said that Junior Chu is fighting that monster alone?" Zhao Ting had already noticed Chu Feng's absence and thought that he had fallen behind in the fog. He did not expect that he would actually turn around to look for Zi Ling. Thinking that the two of them were engaged, a shiver ran down his spine.

"Ye Ling, how can you let Senior Brother Chu deal with that demon alone!" When Liu Shuang heard that Chu Feng was going back to find the Purple Ribbon, her heart trembled and she loudly yelled at the Purple Ribbon.

"Why not? I was fighting against the monster alone before he appeared. Moreover he has a sword which is more suitable for me." Zi Ling said without the slightest bit of guilt.

"You heartless and ruthless woman." Liu Shuang had already lost her rationality. As she was hurting Chu Feng while looking for Zi Ling despite the danger, she was also envious of her being protected by Chu Feng and not cherishing it.

Zi Ling ignored him, looking at the crowd instead. "There is still some time until the trial monument opens. We must persevere until then."

But none of them were sure. Would they be able to last until the Stele reopened?

After walking for another day, they finally arrived at the entrance of the trial monument. Just as they approached, they heard waves of activity.

"Senior, senior sister …" "Junior brother, junior sister …" When the young men and women wearing the Mysterious God Sect's uniform saw Zhao Ting and his entourage, all of them came forward to welcome them with an inexplicable joy on their faces.

But soon, they realized that the number of people had decreased by more than half, so their voices gradually died down.

"Eldest Senior Brother, where are the other Senior Brothers and Sisters?" A junior apprentice sister asked naively before she could guess the result.

No one made a sound. A heavy atmosphere filled the narrow space.

"That's right, where are the other Senior Brothers and Sisters?" Another person asked.

Zhao Ting and the others remained silent.

Zi Ling's eyes swept over those innocent and young faces. She said in a calm voice, "They are all dead!"

For a moment, everyone turned to look at her.

"Junior Sister Ye …" Zhao Ting wanted to stop them, but he didn't. He shook his head and didn't want his juniors to face too much darkness and despair.

But Zi Ling's thinking was completely different from his. The Divine Profound Sect had lost a group of elite disciples, so they really needed these elite disciples before them. Thus, they had to quickly grow up, if only … Conscious of the danger and the darkness, face it bravely!

"Is what she said true?" The naïve little junior did not believe him. With so many senior brothers and sisters here, they were all elites of the Divine Profound Sect. How could they just disappear like that?

Zhao Ting sighed and swept his gaze across the eyes that were fixated on him in search of an answer, "What Junior Sister Ye said is right, they're all gone."

"Not only that, this place is extremely dangerous. You might lose your life at any time, so from now on, you must learn to be careful and protect yourselves with all your might." Zi Ling stared at those innocent faces as she spoke.

The group of twenty odd people revealed expressions of disbelief as they looked at Zi Ling and then at Zhao Ting.

Zi Ling's gaze swept across the people who were stuck in the training ground. She then looked at the thirty people who had experienced a lot of tribulation, and shook her head for the sake of not being able to see. It seemed like they had to go through a lot of hardships in order to grow. In just three months, these thirty people had already lost their initial innocence and childishness. Perhaps they did not realize that there was a trace of tenacity in the corners of their eyes.

At this time, the ground under his feet began to shake violently. The platform was shaking and it started to make loud noises.

Rumble … Rumble …

"What's going on?" Huang Ying looked around cautiously.

Ah … Ah …

More than twenty Divine Profound Sect disciples who were guarding the platform just heard the grievous news of the other senior brothers and sisters.

The platform began shaking more and more violently. The disciples who were stuck on the platform all huddled together.

"Senior Brother, what should we do?"

Even Zi Ling didn't know what to do, much less Zhao Ting.

They looked at each other and shook their heads slightly.

At this moment, the image of a black hole gradually appeared above the platform.

"Look, what's that?" Gu Yuan saw the black hole above first.

"Could it be that the trial tablet has been reopened in advance?" Huang Ying stepped forward and stared at the black hole.

Hearing Huang Ying's words, everyone was overjoyed. The early opening of the trial monument meant that they could leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

"No, Senior Chu hasn't come back yet, we have to go look for her." Liu Shuang's first thought was that Chu Feng was still holding the devil back.

"Junior Martial Sister Liu is right, this trial tablet can be rebuilt just like that. Maybe it won't last long, we have to find Junior Martial Brother Chu as soon as possible." Zhao Ting retracted his gaze from the black hole and spoke to the crowd.

In the blink of an eye, the black hole had completely split open.

"The trial tablet has been reopened. Let's go quickly."

No one knew why the monument was restarting in advance and how long it would last. If Chu Feng came back and the cave closed, would they be locked in here for the rest of their lives?

"You guys leave first. I'll go find Chu Feng." Zi Ling pursed her lips and decided that even if these people stayed, it would not be of much use. It would be better for her to end the battle quickly and bring Chu Feng back with her.

"No, it's too dangerous for you two to stay. I'll stay with you." Zhao Ting immediately objected.

Before the two of them could speak, the disciples on the other side suddenly exclaimed.

Zi Ling and Zhao Ting turned their heads to look at the same time. The black hole above them had suddenly shrunk in half and was gradually closing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.

Crap!

"Quick, you guys go first." Sensing that something was amiss, Zhao Ting ordered the rest of his fellow sect members to leave immediately.

However, before the people who were fighting to be the first to leave had gotten close, the entrance of the cave quickly closed up.

It's over …

Everyone felt a sense of despair as they watched the black hole slowly disappear and close up.

"Looks like we're going to stay in this godforsaken place." Huang Ying was also depressed as she sat down on the ground with her legs crossed.

However, Zi Ling did not move. Her gaze was still fixed on the hole that was about to close. It discovered that the black hole was closing at an extremely fast speed, but when it was about to close completely, it seemed to be supported by a force and had yet to close completely.

Perhaps, they still had a chance of survival.

She forced all the spiritual energy in her body out and poured it into the seams that were about to close, trying her best to expand the seams.

As she exerted her spirit energy, she discovered that there was indeed a force supporting the restarting of the trial monument. However, it was too weak and was about to collapse.

The crack in the black hole grew larger and larger, until it was the size of a bowl, then like a washbasin …

"Everyone, stand up and prepare to leave." Zi Ling's voice roused the dejected crowd.

Following Zi Ling's line of sight, they saw the black hole gradually opening up. Disbelief appeared on their faces as they all rushed towards the black hole.

By the time they reached the edge of the black hole, the lilac had controlled the black hole to the size of a human.

"You guys should leave as well." Zi Ling said to Zhao Ting, Huang Ying, and the rest, who were still by her side.

"No, I'll wait for you." Zhao Ting rejected him without any hesitation.

Zi Ling faintly smiled, "Senior Brother, let's go. I promise you that I will definitely come out."

With that, she turned to look at Huang Ying, "Believe me, take them away."

Huang Ying's expression changed before nodding her head heavily, dragging Zhao Ting and the gold along with her, "Cousin, the Divine Mystical Gate has already lost a group of elites. We must preserve our strength and trust in Ye Ling!" This was because she could always create miracles, making it impossible possible.
