Demon King's Pampered Wife

C67 First Retainer(part Ii)

Huo Zhen's words made her heart tremble. It was such a simple logic, but she wanted to hear it from Huo Zhen himself. Why was there such a huge difference between us all?

Why didn't she encounter such a master in her previous life?

After today's events, she suddenly discovered that the Divine Profound Gate was not a temporary resting place that she could ignore. A sense of belonging slowly took root in her heart.

As he spoke, Huo Zhen slowly stood up, "Tell me about the experiential learning in the trial monument …" His expression was kind, his voice kind.

Zi Ling suddenly recalled that Huo Zhen had been in a coma the entire time and feared that he did not even know about the matter of the Divine Profound Sect losing the elite disciples.

Just as he was about to speak, Zi Ling suddenly raised her head and met his gaze. "Master, a lot of things have happened on the trial monument, maybe it's a lot worse than you imagined. Out of the more than one hundred people that entered, there are less than 60 left …"

With every sentence he spoke, Huo Zhen's expression became more serious. In the end, his eyebrows knitted together and a hint of grief slowly appeared in his eyes. He sighed and said, "Something like that actually happened!"

Zi Ling pursed her lips together, "The trial tablets are filled with danger. If you're not careful, you will lose your life."

"Life is unpredictable, but what a pity for these disciples!"

"Master …" She looked at Huo Zhen. Seeing that he wasn't in a good mood, she changed the topic, "Have you ever heard of a rock river that hangs upside down, devouring life and death, a pagoda that reaches the heavens, slaying Immortals and Fighting Gods?"

Huo Zhen carefully read out the sixteen words before shaking his head, "Never heard of it."

"Then how did the trial tablet appear inside the Divine Profound Gate?" Furthermore, there was also the Celestial Dragon Pool. Everything indicated that the Divine Profound Sect was not a normal place.

"The Divine Profound Gate has a dozen or so generations of inheritances, and this trial tablet has always been here."

It seemed that Huo Zhen did not know the whole story. Zi Ling had a rough idea of what was going on before she stood up, "Master, you've only just recovered from your injuries. Rest well. I'll take my leave first."

Huo Zhen sat back on the stone bed and nodded, "Ok, you can go first." As he spoke, he paused for a moment before continuing, "We've met Elder Lin and the others. Have them come over."

"Alright."

"That's right …" "Master, I have brought back over a hundred magical beasts from the trial monument. I'll have to trouble you to take good care of them for me for a while, maybe they might be able to channel some energy into the Divine Profound Gate as well."

After exiting the trial, he only had time to settle a hundred or so magical beasts before he was busy searching for medicinal herbs to concoct pills.

Huo Zhen nodded, "Okay, Master will arrange these chores for you. You should focus on your cultivation."

Zi Ling smiled lightly and nodded before pushing the door open to leave. When she looked up, she saw Elder Lin and the rest standing not far away. She informed them of Huo Zhen's words and they all entered Huo Zhen's room.

"Sovereign, you're awake." When Elder Lin saw Huo Zhen sitting up straight on the bed, he couldn't help but praise, "Not only does this Ye Ling girl have talent in cultivation, she also has talent in alchemy."

They only knew that Ye Ling displayed his dual specialization and that he relied on pills to cure Huo Zhen.

Huo Zhen nodded, "This girl's talent is extremely high!"

"Not only high, it is simply heaven-defying!" Another Elder Huang said.

Huo Zhen looked at them and saw that they were all praising Zi Ling. He smiled and asked, "Oh? But what had happened? Elder Huang has never praised anyone, so how could he not be stingy with his words today? "

The other elders all laughed, and Elder Lin said: "Clan Master does not know, but someone from Phoenix Mountain came to provoke us today, and one of them was the extremely powerful junior, Little Roc King. He alone injured countless disciples of our sect, and Ye Ling was only able to severely injure him because his morale plummeted." Elder Lin was worried that the Sect Leader would scold Zi Ling for not knowing the severity of the matter, so he hid the fact that she had peeled off her wings and did not say anything.

"Not only did we defeat him, we even severed the inheritance of the demons that he was so proud of. It's just that we're worried that we'll offend Phoenix Mountain from now on." The other person who was unaware of Elder Lin's thoughts immediately spoke up.

Elder Lin glanced at the Sect Leader's expression and found that there was no change in his expression. Only then did he feel relieved, and he recounted what had happened in detail once more.

Huo Zhen placed his hands on his knees as he listened attentively to Elder Lin's story. Finally, he said with a solemn expression: "Phoenix Mountain is obviously not friendly, so it's like this, Ye Ling's way of doing things is also not wrong. The one who deserves our courtesy is definitely not Phoenix Mountain and the rest, otherwise we'll just be risking our lives and letting them know that our Divine Profound Sect is not someone that anyone can bully!"

"That is true, but now that the Divine Profound Sect is severely injured and has offended a strong enemy like Phoenix Mountain, what should we do in the future?" Some of the elders analyzed calmly, and could not help but sigh.

"What should come will eventually come." Huo Zhen shook his head. If they lost some of their faith because they were afraid, then what was the point in cultivating?

Zi Ling descended from the Seamless Temple and walked directly towards the Celestial Dragon Pool.

The last time she took the entrance exam, she turned the Divine Dragon Pool upside down. After what had happened in the Stele, she felt even more certain that there might be a connection between the two.

The surface of the Celestial Dragon Pool was extremely calm. Zi Ling stood beside the pool for a moment, then suddenly dived into the water. The pressure on her spirit vein suddenly lessened as disappointment surged in her heart. It seemed that she had already completely destroyed the Spiritual Concentration Formation last time.

She did not stop and directly dived towards the bottom of the pool. As she got closer and closer, the bottom of the pool became deathly still. She slowly walked forward with her feet on the bottom of the pool, and gradually … She saw that the Spirit Convergence Array had disappeared, leaving behind a strange totem.

What is this?

She moved closer and gently touched the totem.

She had never seen such strange and complicated patterns before. She carefully memorized the patterns in her heart and felt them over and over again. In the end, without any conclusion, he had to get up and search the area again.

Her eyes swept over the surroundings. Her mind recalled the words that the God of Snow Plains had told her in the trial monument, as well as the prophecy that the giant rat had said. Suddenly, she felt as if there was a cloud of fog swirling in front of her.

Forget it, I'll understand when the time comes. Since her search was fruitless, she decided to stop thinking about it for the time being and wait for some clues.

Now that she planned to see Zhu Er, it was time to take revenge on Hong Rui and the rest …

After the matter with the Divine Profound Sect came to an end, Huang Ying and the rest were busy recuperating and cultivating, so Zi Ling quietly left the Divine Profound Sect.

Before it even got close, the Arrow Tailed Tiger felt its master's aura. It was lying on the ground and was dozing off lazily when it suddenly kicked off with its four claws. It roared excitedly in the direction of the purple silk and then ran in the direction of the purple silk.

Zi Ling looked from afar and saw the Arrow Tail Tiger's massive body flying over like a gust of wind. She faintly smiled and allowed it to rush in front of her, using its massive head to prod her body.

"It's been a few months since I last saw you, and you seem to have grown even more." Saying this, he patted the blue hair of the tail of the arrow and threw a few pills at it.

Burp … Burp … Burp … Burp …

The Tiger's tail made a "beng beng beng" sound as it bit into it, making it taste especially sweet. But at this moment, an extremely discordant voice rang out, "You prodigal master …" How could you treat pills as candy? If you want to eat it, just give it to me. "

The Tiger's ears shook as if shocked by the sound. Its eyes looked around in all directions.

"What are you looking at? Your grandpa is here." The Shadow Devil shouted arrogantly.

"Come out and meet with the two of you." They were both his pets, so he naturally had to get to know them.

When the Shadow Devil heard this, a black aura floated down from the purple silk hairpin. Just as it was about to land and teach the little brother tiger a lesson, the tail arrow tiger bit off the demonic aura.

Aowu …

The Shadow Devil cried out in pain and hid behind Zi Ling and fearfully said, "What is that thing? It can actually eat my demon energy."

Zi Ling was too lazy to turn her head, "It is no ordinary Arrow Tail Tiger." It was a Arrow Tailed Tiger that had successfully mutated after devouring a thousand year's Soul Essence.

The Arrow Tailed Tiger bared its dense white teeth and growled at the Shadow Devil behind Zi Ling.

The Shadow Devil had always bullied the weak and feared the strong. After seeing the powerful Arrow Tail Tiger, he didn't dare to call out any more, and hid behind the purple silk like a docile little rabbit.

"Little Tiger, let's go …" A man and a tiger walked in front, while Shadowfiend shyly walked behind, saying in a very tasteless voice, "What's so amazing about that? Isn't he an animal that can't even speak?" Immediately, his sense of superiority returned. He arrogantly floated to the other side of the purple silk, proclaiming it as the overlord of the number one Magic Pet.

"Miss, you're here." When the old man saw the lazy tiger rushing into the forest full of energy, he guessed that the purple silk that hadn't appeared for a long time had arrived. He didn't expect that he had guessed correctly.

He had not suffered these days, and he ate well and rested well. The old people all looked much younger. Zi Ling nodded slightly at him, then asked, "Where's Ling'er?"

"Cultivate inside. I'll go call her." After saying that, he walked towards the cave.

"Ling'er, the young lady is here. Come out quickly." Following the old man's shout, Ling'er came out of the cave with a wide smile on her face. With a single glance, she saw Zi Ling, "Miss!" His young face was much rounder than it was half a year ago.

From the moment she came out, Zi Ling had noticed the current situation of her cultivation. She nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad. Ling'er has been working very hard recently."

Not only was it good, it was also very good. Back then, when she was reborn into Ye Ling's body, she did everything she could to use a year's time and even had a spiritual vein to assist her to reach 80 to 90% Qi Cultivating Stage. However, Ling'er only used 4 to 5 months to reach Qi Disciple Level 4. This was indeed a heaven-defying talent!

After receiving the praise of Zi Ling, Ling'er was even sweeter than candy as she smiled.

The old man was very happy to see his granddaughter being praised. "This girl has been cultivating from morning to night, she refused to rest even for a while."

After hearing that, Zi Ling turned her gaze to Ling'er. "Now is the time to grow. Cultivation is important, as is rest. You must learn to adjust yourself."

Ling'er hurriedly nodded her head in agreement. She felt that everything Miss said was correct and would be done well.

"Miss, it's been a while since Ling'er last saw big sister Zhu'er, I wonder where she is now." Ling'er asked carefully, afraid that Zi Ling would reprimand her coldly.

Unexpectedly, Zi Ling did not berate him. Instead, she replied, "This time around, I've come down the mountain for you and Zhu'er. Today, you should go to the Ye Clan of the Bai Yuan City and get her for me. "

"Should I go?" Ling'er's face was filled with excitement. She hadn't left the mountain for half a year. After all, she had the temperament of a child.

Zi Ling nodded, "That's right, it's not easy for you to arouse suspicion when you go. When you go, tell the gatekeeper that it's Zhu'er's cousin, and that something has happened at home to look for her." She believed that Pearl must have known that she was looking for her.

Now that she knew the mastermind was Ye Zhen, there was no need for Zhu Er to continue taking risks. Even if Zhu Er returned to her side, she would still be able to help her.

Just as she was about to leave, the old man stopped her and said to Zi Ling, "Miss, Ling'er hasn't left the mountain for a long time. Furthermore, she's working for Miss, and I'm worried that she won't be able to do it well.

Zi Ling understood that the old man was worried about Ling'er. Ling'er was currently at Qi Disciple level 4, and she also had a few small spells that she had taught her. She could deal with normal Profound Practitioners, but she did not point them out.
