The Emperor Reigns Them All-Chapter 438 - Why Don't You Move?
Chapter 438 Why Don’t You Move?
The demon wolf and the demon jackal were most embarrassed. They looked at each other and saw the fear in each other’s eyes. “Such an important secret is known by the insignificant us. Will the Great Sage kill us? It’s highly possible!”
The man couldn’t stay any longer. “Hurry to find Li Ye and take care of them all the way!”
As he said, he turned into a giant roc and flew away from the mountain under the curved moon.
The demon fox quickly stood up and shouted, “You haven’t say that why you don’t just help Li Ye get the key.”
The roc was far away. It seemed that he didn’t hear the demon fox’s words.
In fact, he heard it, but he pretended not to. “Ha ha, I’m going to practice the No-talking Incantation. No one can let me talk again.”
Seeing that roc didn’t pay attention to them, the demon wolf and the demon jackal felt very lucky. They looked at the demon fox and said, “Innkeeper, we won’t really go to find Li Ye again, will we? This journey to the Macaque Mountain must be full of immense dangers and difficulties. We’re sure that we won’t come out alive. Maybe we’ll be eaten!”
The demon fox glanced at them and said, “If you don’t go, I will eat you now!”
Both the demon wolf and the demon jackal kept silent.
The demon fox looked at the campfire at the foot of the mountain, and the smile on her face could not be restrained.
She was full of energy and fighting spirit now.
“The Great Formation of Sky Stars, the Chaos Clock, and the future of the demon clan. Such a great mission will fall on me! It’s a piece of cake to see Li Ye again. I have to see such a handsome man!”
…
It was still early and there were four hours before dawn. Li Ye and other people were sitting around the campfire. They didn’t want to rest. After the chaos before, everyone was in no mood to rest, especially Li Ye, who was still a little dizzy now. For him, the blowing wind was like the waves, making him dizzy and sleepy.
You Daxiao was introducing the Macaque King to Li Ye. Suddenly, he stopped talking and looked up to the mountain top behind the yard. He looked puzzled and didn’t move for a while.
Li Ye looked up the mountain and saw nothing. He said, “Did you see the familiar demon?”
You Daxiao pondered for a moment and said, “Maybe you don’t believe what I’m going to say. I feel the breath of my father.”
Hearing that, Li Ye was filled with deep esteem. “When you see the mountain, you think of your father, whose love is as great as a mountain. You are a filial son indeed.”
“I’m not joking!” said You Daxiao helplessly.
Wu You added some firewood to the bonfire and stirred the firewood which was not fully burnt with a piece of dry wood in her hand from time to time. It seemed that she couldn’t stand the firewood was not well burnt. In fact, she was just like a child who didn’t want to be quiet.
Wu You took a look at You Daxiao and said, “Big bird, since your father is the Roc Demon King, why didn’t he come to pick us up? Brother Ye is here to help you!”
“Generally speaking, in our demon clan, we can’t step on the territory of other demon sages unless invited, otherwise it will be regarded as an invasion,” said You Daxiao embarrassingly.
Wu You said with an insincere smile on her face, “Only children will believe those words. Do you think I will believe?”
You Daxiao was so embarrassed that he had to tell the truth, “In fact, I don’t know. He should have come.”
Wu You suddenly laughed, showing two lovely dimples on her face, “In fact, the Roc Demon King has come.”
You Daxiao looked around in astonishment and asked, “Where is he?”
Wu You pointed to the mountain behind the yard and answered, “Over there!”
You Daxiao was speechless again. Wu You was clearly joking about him.
Li Ye remembered that when he fought with the demon fox before, his Luke Sword didn’t even cut the door. He said to You Daxiao, “Since there are many magic treasures in the demon clan, there must be a lot of spiritual stone or spiritual jade. Is it possible to help me upgrade my sword?”
For the mortal, Luke Sword was indeed the emperor’s sword and great. However, because of the strict control of the Immortal Court, the magic tools in the mortal world were not good and couldn’t be called magic treasures.
Luke sword was already a magic tool of the top-level in the mortal world, but when it was compared with the magic treasures from the demon clan and the Immortal Court, it had no advantages at all. The reason why it hadn’t been destroyed was that the class-ranking of the magic treasures it had encountered was not high and it was supported by Dragon Qi.
The calabash gourd of the demon fox was a magic treasure of the middle level at most. However, it was still better than Luke Sword. So Li Ye thought it necessary to upgrade the class-ranking of his long sword.
You Daxiao clapped his chest and promised, “Although there are not many spiritual stones and mineral veins in the demon clan, all of them are better than those in the mortal world. You can rest assured. When we arrive at Roc Demon Mountain, I will let my father upgrade your sword!”
Li Ye nodded with satisfaction.
After chatting from time to time for two hours, Wu You stood up and stretched herself. She said to Li Ye that she was sleepy and wanted to find a place to sleep. Li Ye asked her to choose a place at will and said that he would wake her at dawn. Unexpectedly, she chose Li Ye’s shoulder and fell asleep, leaning against his back.
Seeing that Wu You was sleeping peacefully, You Daxiao yawned. Then he looked at Li Ye and said seriously, “Brother Li, to tell you the truth, I am also sleepy.”
“You can’t sleep,” said Li Ye.
“I won’t sleep on your shoulder, why can’t I?” asked You Daxiao.
Li Ye answered, “The Duchess is sleeping on my shoulder, so I can’t sleep. If you sleep, who will talk to me? So you can’t sleep.”
You Daxiao kept silent for a moment and said, “Actually, I wasn’t very sleepy. But after hearing you saying ‘sleep’ several times, I can’t hold on anymore.”
Whatever, You Daxiao finally didn’t sleep. Li Ye asked him to catch wild animals to barbecue, so that he could exercise himself. You Daxiao felt quite aggrieved at doing that, but when he saw the Duchess who was sleeping peacefully, he could only do that.
After You Daxiao killed some wild animals and baked them, it was dawn and Wu You woke up. In fact, she didn’t sleep for a long time, but she looked energetic. Her black eyes were full of luster. Li Ye thought she had had a good dream.
While they were sharing and eating a roasted hare, You Daxiao, who was sitting opposite Li Ye, said ambiguously, “Brother Li, I think we’ve made a mistake.”
“What mistake?” Li Ye did not lift his head and asked.
You Daxiao quickened his action of biting the hare’s leg and said, “Although we drove away the demon fox last night, they were not hurt. They were likely to ask for help from reinforcements. Now they may be on their way to us… We should have left early.”
Li Ye glanced at him and said, “You’re making a mountain out of a molehill.”
Wu You encouraged him and said, “Don’t worry, Brother Ye and I will protect you!”
You Daxiao ate up the hare’s leg quickly and retreated without saying a word. Then he looked behind Li Ye and said, “You can protect me now. They have come!”
Li Ye thought You Daxiao was joking, but when he saw You Daxiao’s look, he thought he didn’t seem to be joking. Li Ye looked back and, as expected, saw the hot and beautiful innkeeper walking towards them from a distance with the demon wolf and the demon jackal in the light of the sun.
The innkeeper was walking quickly with great confidence and power, long hair flying behind her. She was full of spirits. It seemed that there were numerous demons behind her so that she was so confident.
Wu You immediately stopped eating the hare and stood up with clenched fists, face full of anger. “How dare they come again? Last night they succeeded in running away. Today I will beat them!”
As she said, a cloud burst out behind her, and she rushed out like a shell, so fast that Li Ye could not stop her.
As expected, the earth began to quake.
Every time Wu You stepped heavily on the ground, the ground would quake violently, and a huge pit would appear immediately. Wu You kept jumping up actively or passively, and then fell suddenly. She rushed forward and jumped towards the three demons all the way, looking like a stone dapping on the water.
But compared with the dust and the big pit, Wu You was so small and that the whole scene looked incongruous, but it had a sense of explosion deterrence.
The innkeeper and other two demons saw that, and their expressions suddenly changed. The little girl looked delicate and was lovelier than the delicate doll. Why did she make so loud noise while running?
The demon wolf and the demon jackal swallowed their saliva at the same time. Then the latter said to the demon fox, “Innkeeper, let’s withdraw first. They seem not friendly to us.”
The demon fox swung her long hair and said fearlessly, “What are you afraid of? We are righteous. Don’t be afraid that they will hurt us. The Prince An of Tang Empire was not disturbed with me in his lap. He must be courteous…”
The demon wolf said in his mind, “You have seduced Li Ye before, how can you say that your behavior is righteous…”
The demon jackal said in his mind, “Li Ye may be courteous, but this little girl obviously doesn’t like you…”
As soon as the demon fox finished her words, Wu You had come to her with a cold face, who then raised her fist and punched her on the nose straightly. The billowing power blew the demon fox’s robe and long hair. The air made a sharp sound of tearing, make people’s eardrum hurt.
The demon fox’s expression changed, and she felt the extreme danger. She quickly stabilized herself and crossed her arms before chest.
Wu You’s fist hit the demon fox’s arms, making a deafening sound. The ground under the demon fox’s feet exploded, and the mud and dust went up about 30 meters, covering the two figures in an instant.
Seeing that, the demon wolf felt danger and retreated quickly with the demon jackal whose cultivation was lower.
However, the next moment, the demon fox slide out of the dust like a sharp arrow, leaving two deep gullies on the ground by her feet and the soil splashing behind her shanks continuously. She actually retreated no slower than the demon wolf.
The demon wolf turned his head in amazement, looked the demon fox whose arms were still crossed before chest, and said in surprise, “You can also retreat so fast, innkeeper?”
Before the demon fox could answer, the small Wu You had rushed out of the mud and dust, and a simple straight fist hit the demon fox’s arms again. Immediately, the retreating demon fox speeded up and even surpassed the demon wolf and the demon jackal directly, going away in a flash.
The demon fox smiled coldly in his mind. “I can retreat faster. Do you believe it?”
Hearing the dull bombardment sound of fist hitting on the arms, the demon wolf was scared. “I’m really a wise demon. Fortunately, I ran fast. If I was hit, I would be crippled even if I wouldn’t die…” He suddenly understood why the demon fox didn’t put down her arms while retreating. She was really prescient.
Wu You stepped heavily on the ground, and as expected, there was a huge deep pit under her feet. The mud and dust gathered, and instantly covered the area with a range of 30 meters.
After retreating to a distance, the demon fox stopped and stood still, arms still in front of her chest.
The demon wolf breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wu You didn’t continue to pursue them. He didn’t think that he could block the two fierce fists like the innkeeper.
Thinking of this, the demon wolf put down the demon jackal and looked at the demon fox with admiration on his face. “You are so powerful, innkeeper. You can actually resist that little girl’s two strikes. We’re both at the Sky Immortal Realm, but I can’t resist that!”
The demon fox glanced at him indifferently.
The demon wolf pondered for a moment, and then looked at the demon fox for a while. Seeing that she was motionless, he finally couldn’t help saying, “Innkeeper, there’s blood on your mouth.”
The demon fox barely suppressed her anger and said coldly, “Don’t I know?”
The demon wolf kept silent again for a moment. Seeing that she was still motionless, he once again couldn’t help saying, “Then why don’t you wipe it?”
Hearing that, the demon fox was also silent this time. Then she could not restrain her anger anymore. She shouted, “Are you blind? Can’t you see that my arms haven’t been put down? Do you think that I think this posture is natural and unrestrained so I keep it still all the time?”
The demon wolf was stunned for a moment and asked, “Isn’t it?”
“My arms are broken. I don’t have any consciousness now. Would you like to show me how to move? Come and help me! The little girl will come again at a certain time!”
Li Ye came to the edge of the pit and squatted down to look at Wu You inside. Wu You was very angry, but she only punched the demon fox twice and didn’t continue to pursue, which made him feel very confused.
Now Wu You was standing still in the big pit, as if she had been fixed. Li Ye immediately became curious. “Does the demon fox have this magic power?”
Then he saw Wu You turn around difficultly and cry, “Brother Ye, my leg is stuck in the crack of the stone. I got a cramp. I can’t move. Come down and help me!”
Not until now did Li Ye see it clearly. The bottom of the pit was full of stones. Wu You left a big pit on the ground every time she ran or jumped. She looked very dignified, but no one knew what was at the bottom of the pit. No wonder she was stuck by stones.
No wonder she didn’t keep on chasing
