Chapter 1418: Chapter 54: The Wang family made a wedding dress for the Demon King_4

“Indeed, it is the relic of the Blood Venerate.” Demon Lord Xietong was elated, “Chimei has done a capable job, establishing great merit.”

“Congratulations, Demon King,” the Shadow Snake Demonic Princess said with a fawning smile, “Once the Demon King acquires the ultimate treasure and gains further hope, do not forget the contributions of our lineage and allow us to escape the status of the Tripod Furnace.”

“Rest assured, although I, Demon Lord Xietong, am feared by everyone, I never break the promises I make,” said Demon Lord Xietong gravely. “Otherwise, Shadow Snake Demonic Princess, you and the Ancient Elephant Devil Lord wouldn’t have gone through great lengths to help me.”

Shadow Snake Demonic Princess nodded silently.

Indeed, this was true. Although Demon Lord Xietong was fierce, domineering, cold, and ruthless, he kept his word. Most importantly, he really had no interest in women; to be precise, due to physical reasons, he lacked the capability…

“You first go in and check the situation; I will cover for you from outside,” Demon Lord Xietong said coldly. “After all, the relics of True Immortals usually have some spatial restrictions, once you enter, it would be hard to rip through space and escape directly.”

“What?” Shadow Snake Demonic Princess’s face changed. Was she really being treated as cannon fodder to scout?

“What, not willing?” Demon Lord Xietong glanced at her, “If you want to rid yourself of the Tripod Furnace status, how can you do so without taking some risks?”

At this point, what escape route could the Shadow Snake Demonic Princess have? Although this was just a clone of Demon Lord Xietong, it certainly carried the killer moves of the main body, and she feared she was no match.

Moreover, even if she was a match, so what? If she were to ruin Demon Lord Xietong’s good deeds, where in the world would she find refuge?

Amidst cursing in her heart, she still assumed a tragic expression and took the command: “My lord, rest assured, do not forget our lineage’s contributions and requests.” Saying this, she gritted her teeth and entered the Blood Venerate’s relic first.

Fortunately, there were no longer any dangers within the relic of the Blood Venerate, but the interior of this great hall had been thoroughly pillaged. She raised an eyebrow. Was the Wang family in the demolition business?

It seemed they didn’t spare even a single floor tile!

She hoped Chimei was still alive.

Shadow Snake Demonic Princess took out a jade pendant. Chimei also had a similar one, which could be used in short distances without spatial formation obstruction.

“Chimei, Chimei, how are you now?”

The jade pendant vibrated, and Chimei’s voice, relieved of burdens, came through: “Master, Master, you finally came. Master, save me…”

“Still alive, that’s great. What’s the situation now?” Shadow Snake Demonic Princess breathed a sigh of relief.

“I saw things were going south, so I lured a bunch of Blood Nest Warrior Puppets to trap the Wang family and Old Ancestor Dragon. Although the plan succeeded, I didn’t expect that inside the relic there were sleeping Blood Nest Warriors. After disturbing them, I could only hide in the treasure vault of the Blood Venerate.”

After a full account, Shadow Snake Demonic Princess understood the situation, and hastily consoled Chimei twice before hurrying out of the Blood Venerate’s relic.

Once out again, her expression was a mix of joy and worry, “My lord, after I went in, I got in touch with Chimei.” Then, she recounted the situation.

“Three Transcendent Void Realm Blood Nest Puppets and a bunch of Divine Power Territory… Chimei is trapped in the treasure vault. Fortunately, the vault is very sturdy, and she is safe for the moment. As for the Wang family and Dragon Clan, they have been driven out by a group of Blood Nest Warriors, I don’t know when they will strike.”

“Three Transcendent Void? A dozen Divine Power? Is there any Immortal Scripture in the vault?” The expression of Demon Lord Xietong’s clone immediately turned grave.

“Chimei said, there is only the [Sacred Gu Codex] left by the Blood Venerate, supposedly it’s only a ‘Half-step Immortal Sutra’, and she isn’t even eligible to inherit it,” Shadow Snake Demonic Princess answered truthfully. “There are also a lot of other good things, a large number of Divine Spiritual Treasures, one Dao-level Item, and lots of high-order Spirit Stones.”

“Very good, it really is the [Sacred Gu Codex],” Demon Lord Xietong was not angry but pleased instead. “That is already a Half-step Immortal Sutra, exactly the treasure that my true self needs most. Inform Chimei to pack up whatever she can.”

“Relying on the Dao-level Item my true self left, I can barely lure them away and hold them off for a stick of incense time. During that time, you and Chimei should meet up in the Blood Venerate’s treasure vault and cover her escape. Don’t stop, head to South Qin to meet up with my true self.”

“Yes, my lord,” Shadow Snake Demonic Princess was also excited, things were going unexpectedly well.

“But, don’t have any selfish intentions,” Demon Lord Xietong sneered, “The Sacred Gu Codex is of no use to you, do not ruin your future prospects. Before you act, I will send a memory to my true form first.”

“Rest assured, my lord,” said Shadow Snake Demonic Princess spiritedly, “I am not going to do anything foolish.”

“Good, good, ah, you are indeed sensible,” Demon Lord Xietong was quite pleased, “The Wang family has toiled for decades, but in the end still made wedding clothes for me. All these years of my patient lurking have not been in vain.”

“Action!”
