Susu’s words moved me to tears and I felt very uncomfortable.
I slowly put the Taiyin Pearl containing Susu's soul into the pocket on my chest, as if by doing this I could feel the warmth of Susu's soul.
The young monk Yuquan looked at me and consoled me, "Brother Yang, don't be sad. My sister-in-law's soul has been found, and we should be happy about it. Besides, we still have to find a way to find the Seven-Aperture Heart, so that we can save my sister-in-law and bring her back to life."
The little monk Yuquan was really rude, calling Susu "sister-in-law" all the time, which made me feel a little embarrassed. On the contrary, Susu in my arms was laughing and seemed very happy.
I nodded to Yuquan and said, "Then let's interrogate the three-tailed cat demon. Maybe she knows where the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart is."
I just asked Susu about the Seven-Aperture Heart, but her reaction was beyond my expectation. She didn't even know that her heart was a Seven-Aperture Heart, and she didn't even know where the Seven-Aperture Heart was now. Of course, I couldn't blame her.
Then the little monk Yuquan and I quickly went to the three-tailed cat demon.
At this time, the Skylight Array had already disappeared, and the three-tailed cat demon was lying on the ground, still unconscious.
What Yuquan and I didn't know was that just when Yuquan opened the lid of the big furnace, on Fangding Mountain, hundreds of kilometers away from the civet cat clan's demon cave, Grandma Tianqi, who was attending the Ten Thousand Demons Conference, suddenly had a changed expression and her brows were furrowed.
Grandma Tianqi was sitting in a hall on Fangding Mountain.
The hall was decorated magnificently and luxuriously, with many places inlaid with gold and silver, and even the floor was covered with a thick layer of gold-thread carpet.
The door of the main hall faces south, which is in line with Feng Shui. It faces south and is backed by mountains and overlooks the water. When you look in from the door, you can see that there are dozens of sandalwood chairs on the left and right sides of the main hall. The sandalwood chairs are very wide, and there are small wooden tables for placing tea next to them.
There were quite a few people sitting on the sandalwood chairs, and their clothes were very different. If they were in the world of the living, they would definitely be a very strange group of people, or "different."
No, you are wrong, they are not human, they are all monsters!
Grandma Tianqi, the clan leader of the civet cat clan, was sitting in the first seat on the left side of the main hall.
A man with a square face and a neck covered with scales was speaking in the hall. I won't mention what he said, but the monsters below the hall all reacted in the same way, all with serious faces, listening carefully to what the square-faced man was saying.
A little old man with a mustache and shifty eyes sitting next to Grandma Tianqi noticed the change on Grandma Tianqi's face. He and Grandma Tianqi were of the same generation, named Shu Cunguang, and was a rat spirit.
"Sister Tianqi, what's wrong with you? You don't look right to me."
Shu Cunguang asked with some curiosity.
Grandma Tianqi did not hide anything. She looked at the man who was speaking in the hall. Seeing that the man did not notice her, she lowered her voice and said to Shu Cunguang: "Brother Cunguang, to be honest, my cat demon clan may have some problems in the demon cave on Yuanbao Mountain."
"My juniors are refining a 'rebirth pill' for me. But just now, I sensed that there was a problem with the pill furnace. So I suspect that the demon cave of my raccoon clan may have encountered some unexpected events."
"What? Something went wrong with the civet cat clan's lair? How is that possible?... ... Sister Qi, why didn't you rush back that day
”
Shu Cunguan said in surprise.
Grandma Tianqi thought for a moment and explained, "It may be that my descendants had some problems refining the elixir. I am not sure yet. Besides, the events involved in this Ten Thousand Monsters Conference are very bad. After all, the sable monster tribe that was exterminated is on Wula Mountain."
"Wula Mountain is not far from our Yuanbao Mountain. So, I still need to learn some information here, just in case."
His short-sighted eyes rolled around, he nodded, and said, "Sister Tianqi, you are right. This incident is indeed very bad. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many monsters coming to the Ten Thousand Monsters Conference this time."
The things that Grandma Tianqi and Shu Cunguang discussed were as follows——
A few months ago, the chief of the Peng Bird tribe led his people to visit the Wula Mountain of the Sable Monster Tribe. However, no one from the Sable Monster Tribe went to greet them. This made Peng Fei, the chief of the Peng Bird tribe, who had already greeted them, very angry and unhappy.
Pengfei felt that his Peng bird clan was being neglected by the sable demon clan.
So without the consent of the sable demon tribe's leader, Pengfei took a dozen members of the Peng bird tribe, flew into the sky above Wulan Mountain, and rushed into the hall of the sable demon tribe.
But what Peng Fei, the chief of the Peng bird tribe, did not expect was that when they entered the hall of the sable demon tribe, they saw the corpses of sables. Moreover, most of the members of the sable demon tribe had been sucked dry of blood, leaving only dried corpses.
Pengfei was shocked when he saw this scene.
He also found the body of Zifeng, the leader of the Sable Demon Clan, in a corner. However, Zifeng's body was already in pieces, even his eyeballs were dug out, and the sable skin on his body was peeled off and hung on the plaque in the hall of the Sable Demon Clan.
When he found something was wrong, Peng Fei asked the Peng Bird Clan to investigate the scene. However, there was not a single living member of the Sable Monster Clan. It could be said that the Sable Monster Clan had completely disappeared, or in other words, they had been slaughtered.
Knowing the seriousness of the situation, Pengfei and his people hurried back to the Peng bird tribe and passed the news to various demon tribes. Many demon tribes still did not believe it, so some demon tribes went to Wula Mountain to check the situation.
When they learned that the Peng bird clan's news was accurate, all the demon clans on land began to panic.
The Ten Thousand Monsters Conference was originally scheduled to be held in a year, but due to this unexpected incident, the Ten Thousand Monsters Conference was held a full year earlier. And this time, almost all the monsters who came to participate in the Ten Thousand Monsters Conference were the clan leaders of each monster clan.
But even when discussing and negotiating matters, they still had no clue. They even didn't know what the thing that killed the sable monster tribe was. For a time, the monster tribes were panicked and very uneasy.
Everyone was afraid that if they accidentally offended something, they would be wiped out. But even so, despite everyone's worries, the leaders of the various demon tribes still reached an agreement to jointly deal with the crisis and find the murderer who killed the sable demon tribe.
At this time, the square-faced man who was speaking in the hall was the leader of the Spirit Crocodile Clan, Crocodile Changping. To put it simply, the Spirit Crocodile Clan was a group of crocodiles that could transform into human form.
Although she was listening carefully to E Changping's statement, Grandma Tianqi felt increasingly uneasy.
She just used up her magic power to count with her fingers, and the result was that something had indeed happened in the demon cave of her raccoon cat clan. But fortunately, her clansmen were not killed or injured. This also made her feel a little relieved.
Grandma Tianqi thought that it was probably because her Lu'er and Huang'er were refining the elixir.
The problem.
Shu Cunguang on the side pondered for a moment, then said to Grandma Tianqi: "Sister Tianqi, you and I have known each other for thousands of years, and we can be considered friends. Don't worry, since something has happened to your civet cat clan, I, Shu Cunguang, will definitely not sit idly by."
"Wait a minute, when you leave here, I will go back with you."
Grandma Tianqi didn't hesitate and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, brother Cunguang!"
Shu Cunguang's eyes flickered, and he said with a smile: "No problem, no problem!"
Now let’s talk about me and the little monk Yuquan.
Yuquan and I went to the three-tailed cat demon.
Yuquan looked at the three-tailed cat demon and said to me, "Brother Yang, I will cut off one of the cat demon's tails first. If I only leave her with one tail, she can keep her human form and speak. Then you seal her acupuncture points. Even if she wakes up, she won't rebel."
I nodded and said, "Okay, then go ahead!"
"Okay, I'll do it now!"
Then the young monk Yuquan took out a knife from his body and rudely cut off one of the tails of the three-tailed cat demon.
The knife was very sharp, and the three-tailed cat demon had no reaction at all before its second tail was cut off. The funny thing was that two bleeding tail roots were left behind the three-tailed cat demon's buttocks.
The third tail of the three-tailed cat demon was lying stiffly on the ground, and it felt raw to the touch.
"Brother Yang, this cat demon only has a tail left, you can wake her up!"
The little monk said with a smile.
I nodded, and then pulled out the Phantom Night Needle that was stuck in the sleeping point of the cat demon.
The three-tailed cat demon suddenly opened his eyes.
After she opened her eyes and saw the little monk and me, she shook her body to deal with us. But there was still a Phantom Night Needle stuck in the acupuncture point that controlled its movement. With the power of the three-tailed cat demon after the tail was cut off, it was difficult for her to force the Phantom Night Needle out of her body.
"Don't shake it! You can't break free. Hey, cat demon, we've already cut off your second tail."
The young monk Yuquan happily held the bloody tail and waved it in front of the three-tailed cat demon.
The three-tailed cat demon's face flushed red, and he shouted, "You humans are too cruel. What on earth do you want to do? Ah, it hurts me to death!..."
"I warn you, if you dare to do anything wrong, I, Grandma Tianqi, will not let you go. She is a great demon, much more powerful than me. If you know what's good for you, let me go quickly, otherwise you will die miserably."
To be honest, I often hear these words from ghosts. Now I hear them from cat demons. I have to say, routines are still effective.
I smiled, then my face turned gloomy, and I asked the three-tailed cat demon in a cold voice, "I am asking you a question now, and you need to tell the truth. Otherwise, it will not be us who will die miserably, but you. It is not easy for you to practice for hundreds of years. It would be a pity if you die like this."
"Tell me, where is the Seven Apertures Heart?"
But the three-tailed cat demon snorted coldly, and said coldly, "Humph! You wanted to get the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, don't dream. I told you before that the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart belongs to our civet cat clan, but it was taken away by the old monk Xiangyun many years ago. However, now the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart has returned to the hands of our cat demon clan, and will not be handed over to you mortals."
Damn it, he really refuses to accept the toast and drinks the forfeit. This three-tailed cat demon is very stubborn!
