This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered
Chapter 137: Fiery Red Crystal Stone

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Fiery Red Crystal Stone

"No problem!"

Although it was almost certain death for Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei to take on this task given their level, a glance at the Task Experience Points made them unhesitatingly slap their chests agreeing to undertake it.

After all, they had resurrection, what’s there to fear?

Death before Level 10 comes without experience penalty; only after Level 10 does each death reduce one’s current level’s experience by thirty percent.

After quickly discussing their plan, Bai Xiaomo and the other moved to another hidden spot as indicated by Su Youyi’s eyes.

"3, 2, 1! Charge!"

Bai Xiaomo whispered the countdown, then along with Ju Xiaobei, they dashed out from the hidden bushes straight towards the patrolling Devouring Spirit Sect squad.

"Hey, you slowpokes, I’m Sun Wukong, your horse is raised by me!"

"Still loitering around? Overseeing your horse’s grave?"

···

From the moment they spoke, it was clear they were pulling out all the stops—Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei turned on their full-capacity taunting skill, starting with a barrage of insults.

The patrolling Devouring Spirit Sect members hadn’t grasped the situation yet, when they saw two oddly dressed nobodies pointing at their noses and cussing them out.

In the brief moment of their stunned pause, their ancestors for eighteen generations had been thoroughly cursed—and none of the curses were repeated.

The onlookers were dumbfounded, amazed that there could be such variety in cursing—quite an eye-opener. The last meeting with the Zen monk who emerged to refine his heart was unsatisfying; he should’ve been here to observe—a surefire way to achieve top-level heart refinement.

After a wave of taunts, Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei coordinated their efforts, releasing a torrent of attacks before quickly making their escape. The raging Devouring Spirit Sect members, vowing not to rest until they had shred the duo into a thousand pieces, followed hot on their heels.

Seeing the guards lured away so smoothly, Su Youyi and the newcomer approached the Great Formation to see if there was a way to enter.

"No way, Fairy Su, this Array is too strong." The newcomer, who had been learning from a Zen monk, knew some things—this Array was completely out of their league.

Su Youyi also felt disheartened, knowing that the Great Formation was clearly obstructing cultivators from the Seventh Realm; they two together likely couldn’t make any impact.

However, just as Su Youyi was pondering whether to retreat and seek another opportunity or to directly break the Array with the Immaculate Sword Jade, she suddenly sensed something odd in her Storage Ring.

She pulled out the red Crystal Stone she had picked up from the ground after battling the mysterious girl from the Devouring Spirit Sect; it was this object that was stirring.

Su Youyi had carefully investigated this stone previously but couldn’t discern anything—it seemed just a regular Crystal Stone. Yet now, as they approached the Great Formation, this stone started vibrating on its own.

Hesitantly, Su Youyi tried pressing the Crystal Stone against the barrier of the Great Formation, and a miraculous scene unfolded.

The tightly seamless Great Formation began slowly opening up an entrance after absorbing the Crystal Stone!

"Fairy Su, is this...?"

The newcomer’s eyes widened in disbelief. The Banished Immortal was impressive, but even his disciple could casually produce something that broke the Great Formation?

"I’m not sure either, but let’s go in first and talk later."

Su Youyi was as puzzled; this Crystal Stone turned out to be the key to the Great Formation. But how could such an important item be casually dropped? Wasn’t that girl a member of the Devouring Spirit Sect?

Not much time to think further—Su Youyi already sensed that the Devouring Spirit Sect guards, having vented their spite, were rushing back.

As Su Youyi and the newcomer stepped inside the Great Formation, the opened entrance instantly closed, and the Crystal Stone was spit back out into Su Youyi’s hand.

"Let’s head up the mountain first!"

For the constantly resurrecting Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei, she wasn’t worried about any issues arising. Having spent many days with them, she had already seen the cleverness of these two Abnormal People.

On the other side, Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei, having already completed their task, were joyfully playing dead.

They had to wait until the Devouring Spirit Sect guards left before they could resurrect, otherwise, if they were found guarding the bodies, all their resurrection counts would be gone.

"How is it?"

"I’ve completed mine too!"

"Then, there’s nothing left for us to do, I’m going to log off and eat, what about you?"

"Okay, I will log off to refill some nutrient fluids and will log on later to notify you."

"OK!"

After finishing the task, the two planned to log off and deal with some real-world issues, while also updating the live-post on the forum.

They were recording videos round the clock, being the first players among the gamers to follow NPCs on tasks and enter the Secret Realm with a full set of equipment. The vast majority of players were now paying attention to their situation.

At the mountain summit, Ke Mengzhan suddenly opened his eyes.

"Master Ke, what’s wrong?"

"Someone is coming up."

Ke Mengzhan was curious, with the entire Hua Sen Mountain sealed, who could ignore the Array and come in?

On the other side, He Zhiqing also noticed this, together with Yu Gejing they looked towards the only path leading to the mountain summit.

"Master Ying, there was a momentary fluctuation in the Great Formation just now!" The Immortal Dynasty’s Array Master, who was studying the Array day and night, reported to Ying Xi about the unusual occurrence.

"Uh?"

Before Ying Xi could ask further, he was astounded by the figure that appeared at the end of the path.

"Is that... Junior Sister Su!?"

He Zhiqing was surprised by the newcomer. Wasn’t she following Junior Brother Liang? How did she come back, and why is Junior Brother Liang not by her side?

Yu Gejing, on the other hand, was delighted and pulled He Zhiqing towards Su Youyi, preparing to ask her about the situation face-to-face.

Ke Mengzhan, upon seeing who it was, instantly lost interest and collapsed back to bask in the sun.

Ying Xi teleported instantly next to Su Youyi and sized her up and down, wanting to investigate whether this was someone from the Devouring Spirit Sect in disguise. This Array, which even he couldn’t break through temporarily, plus the outside guarded by the Devouring Spirit Sect, how did Su Youyi manage to get in?

"Master Ying!" Su Youyi, sensing the unfathomable Realm of the middle-aged man before her, immediately realized his identity—it must be Senior Ying Xi, whom her senior brothers mentioned, and hurriedly gave him a respectful bow.

"No matter, how did you avoid the patrols of the Devouring Spirit Sect and ignore the Great Formation to come in?" Ying Xi waved his hand, asking his most pressing question.

Meanwhile, Yu Gejing had already pulled He Zhiqing to Su Youyi’s side, realizing that Liang Yi, indeed, wasn’t there—only a silly leopard demon following behind Su Youyi.

Su Youyi released the aura of the Endless Dao, proving her identity and then simply informed Ying Xi and the others about the events of the past few days.

She also took out the red crystal stone and handed it over to Ying Xi, believing that he was the key to breaking the situation. As long as Ying Xi was freed, all the sinister schemes and plots of the Devouring Spirit Sect would crumble before real power.
