After a long time, someone finally had the courage to accuse the Scorpion Woman standing in the front.
“Master Demon King, please be aware that this woman has challenged the mayors of thirteen cities in two years and killed many demon kings, but she is unwilling to take over the position of demon king.
I, a mediocre person, know that I am not capable enough, but there is no other way except to take over..."
The Bone Demon Emperor paused for a moment, glanced at the Scorpion Woman, and narrowed his eyes.
"Oh? I didn't know that I had such a genius under my command. Is what he just said true?"
As his voice fell, an invisible pressure rushed towards the Scorpion Woman.
The Scorpion Woman's face changed and her body began to stagger.
Her bones creaked, but she managed to steady herself and bowed to the Bone Demon King.
"Reporting to the Lord Demon King, it is true, but I only frequently challenged the various demon kings in order to improve my cultivation."
The Bone Demon Emperor looked at her coldly, and only when the Scorpion Woman's face completely lost color and she almost fell down did he slowly withdraw his pressure.
Even though he disliked the Scorpion Woman to the extreme, he had to admit that she was the one with the highest cultivation among all the demon kings in the palace.
Being able to hold out for so long under his pressure, his strength cannot be that weak.
We still need her on the trip to Lingmo Island.
Killing her now would be meaningless except for venting my anger.
The Bone Demon King quickly regained his sanity, but he didn't want to see this group of trash again.
"Get out of here."
A dozen demon kings did not dare to raise any objections, for fear of bringing bad luck to the Demon Emperor, and left the hall in a hurry.
The Scorpion Woman returned to the post station and reported to Xu Chunniang what had happened today.
"It's just as you expected. The Demon King is very angry, but he didn't punish me. I guess he won't pursue it any further."
Xu Chunniang was very satisfied. "Are you sure about tomorrow's election?"
"certainly."
A look of confidence appeared on the Scorpion Woman's face. In the past two years, she had experienced more than ten life-and-death battles.
No matter how poor your qualifications are, you will not achieve no progress at all.
What's more, the strength of her opponents is not at the same level as hers.
"That's great."
Xu Chunniang smiled with relief, "I won't go to the election tomorrow, you should prepare well, I will wait for your good news."
"Yes, sir, please rest assured that I will never let you down."
Although the Scorpio woman has already determined that she will be the winner, she will not let her guard down or underestimate any opponent.
After watching the Scorpion Woman leave, the Red Bunting on the beam suddenly called out twice.
It was Yanyu who brought the news.
Xu Chunniang waved her hand, and the red bunting flew down from the beam and landed in her hand.
"Friend Xu, the election is coming up soon, don't let anything go wrong. Once you enter Spirit Demon Island, remember to keep Zhu Wu by your side at all times so that we can communicate easily."
Xu Chunniang curled her lips slightly. Yanyu specifically asked her to bring Zhuwu with her. It was unknown whether it was to facilitate communication between the two of them or to facilitate Yanyu to control her position.
“Got it, don’t worry, Fellow Daoist Yan. When we get to Spirit Demon Island, I hope Fellow Daoist Yan won’t keep us in suspense any more.
How can I leave the demon world? When the time comes, please let Brother Yan know clearly."
Yanyu replied quickly, "Friend Xu, don't worry too much. I have never forgotten what I promised you."
Xu Chunniang touched the feathers of the red bunting with a smile, hoping that what Yanyu said was true, and that there really was a passage back to the spirit world on Lingmo Island.
Otherwise, she would be angry.
On the second day of the selection meeting, the Scorpion Lady stood out from the crowd of demon kings with her far superiority and successfully obtained the qualification to go to the Spirit Demon Island.
After the selection was over, the Bone Demon King was very unhappy, but there was no one available under his command, and it was too late to find someone else.
The Scorpion Woman does have some ability and is the most suitable candidate at the moment.
Although he was unhappy, the Bone Demon King still had a clear mind when it came to the overall situation.
As soon as the selection meeting was over, he summoned the Scorpion Woman and gave her two things.
"This is the certificate for entering the Spirit Demon Island, and the map that has been explored on the Spirit Demon Island."
"Thank you, Lord Demon Emperor, for the reward."
The Scorpion Lady looked respectful and did everything she could to make the Bone Demon King feel better.
"Do you know the origin of Spirit Demon Island?"
"It is said that the Spirit Demon Island is the border between the spirit world and the demon world. There is neither spiritual energy nor demonic energy on the island, only evil energy that cannot be absorbed by humans."
As the Scorpion Woman spoke, she recalled the rumors she had heard in the past.
“Whether you are a demon cultivator or a spiritual cultivator, you will lose your cultivation on the Spirit Demon Island and become like a mortal.
You must be at least at the Fusion Stage to be eligible to enter the Spirit Demon Island, otherwise you will explode and die because you cannot withstand the evil spirit on the island."
"Yes, Lingmo Island is very special. The terrain and climate of the island are constantly changing and are very dangerous."
The Bone Demon Emperor's eyes moved slightly, "So you must remember to be careful, and collect as many treasures from the island as possible for me while preserving your life.
Especially the legendary chance to become a true demon, do you know?"
"I know, and I will do my best to fulfill the Demon Emperor's wish."
The Bone Demon Emperor probed his evil thoughts, and after confirming that the mark he left in the soul of the Scorpion Goddess was correct, he took out an extraordinary magic weapon and several life-saving items and handed them to her.
"This bow is a reward for you. I hope you can come back alive from the Spirit Demon Island. Go down."
"Yes, thank you for the reward, Master Demon Emperor."
After receiving the reward and paying respects, the Scorpion Woman left the hall and returned to the post station.
"My lord, the Demon King has given me the credentials to enter the Spirit Demon Island and the map of the Spirit Demon Island. In addition, he also gave me a bow and several life-saving items."
As she spoke, she took out the few things she had just obtained one by one.
Xu Chunniang looked at the palm-sized talisman in the Scorpion Woman's hand.
This talisman is half black and half white, and exudes a mysterious aura. It is the certificate for entering the Spirit Demon Island.
The talisman is special, and no one knows what it is made of. There is not a single trace of artificial carving, and it looks completely natural.
This talisman has been bound to the Scorpion Woman's soul, and no one can snatch it away.
After reading the talisman, Xu Chunniang's eyes fell on the pure black bow, and her eyes lit up.
“Nice bow!”
The Bone Demon Emperor was really generous this time. This bow is actually a Mahayana-level magic weapon, on the same level as the Soul-Calming Pot.
"If you like it, I will give you this bow."
Xu Chunniang laughed, "What do I need this bow for? This is a gift from the Bone Demon Emperor for you to use for self-defense. Just take it."
"Yes, sir."
The Scorpion Woman put away the talisman and bow, "When do we leave?"
Xu Chunniang hesitated for a moment and said, "It will take another twenty years before Spirit Demon Island is officially opened.
According to convention, you must first meet up with the other two candidates from Moyunzhou, and then rush to Yinyuanzhou together."
The Scorpion Woman nodded, "Then let's head to the border and reunite with the other two."
