Chapter 172 The Fierce and Delicate Nine-Tailed Fox King (12)
Yanchen's body suddenly stiffened, the tips of his ears felt hot, his heart was beating fast, and his breathing became rapid. He who had always been calm and composed was extremely panicked at this moment.
Yanchen raised his hand to push the kitten's furry head away, but was slapped away with a rough paw.
"Meow!"
The kitten meowed impatiently and hugged Yan Chen tightly with its front paws.
After she calmed down, Yan Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
He slowly stood up from the bed and left the place.
There are stars in the sky, the moon hangs in the night sky, and the silver moonlight falls on the earth, adding a touch of softness to the cold ground.
In front of the hut, under the old tree.
The pharmacist who treated Zhu Yu during the day was squatting in a corner of the courtyard, waiting for a century-old white lingseed to bloom.
The herb has been growing for nearly a thousand years. It bloomed and was gnawed by dogs a hundred years ago. It only grew and bloomed again this year. For alchemists, it is like a treasure.
The pharmacist watched Bai Lingzi's flower bones grow bigger and bigger, with a satisfied smile on his face.
He picked up the shovel on the side and was about to remove the leaves of Bai Lingzi. But at this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew through, and the shovel fell out of his hand and hit the herbs.
"Ouch! My baby!"
The pharmacist exclaimed, and when he flew over, Bai Lingzi had been destroyed by the powerful demonic energy and turned into dregs, with dead branches and leaves scattered all over the ground.
The pharmacist looked at the mess on the ground and felt heartbroken. What a pain in the ass!
He turned back angrily to look at the person who came, but he was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground, looking at the handsome man in white with fear on his face.
"King...King, why are you here?"
A trace of restraint appeared on the man's face for the first time, but it was fleeting. His thin lips were slightly opened, "Excuse me, if you have a cat, she likes to bite you when she sleeps. Why?"
The trees in the courtyard are towering, and half of the man's face is in shadow. He is calm and intimidating, which makes people feel fearful.
The word "Excuse me" scared the pharmacist so much that he knelt on the ground. "The little demon is frightened. Cats are emotionally dependent on their owners, but if they attack, it means that they don't trust the owner enough and even hate it."
Countless thoughts flashed through the pharmacist's mind. Could it be that he had not taken good care of the medicinal materials recently? But he had never missed anything from planting, picking, drying and refining.
Could it be because he tasted an unknown wild fruit today?
A cool breeze blew by, making the leaves rustle.
Yan Chen stood with his hands behind his hands and glanced indifferently at the trembling pharmacist kneeling at his feet. His voice was cold and bone-chilling, "But Bairi Military Advisor said that he is the most important person."
It turned out to be the cat demon.
The tendons in his head suddenly tightened. Judging from the current situation, this "bite" was probably not a real bite.
The pharmacist suddenly realized this and kowtowed as if he were pounding garlic. "This is a misjudgment by me. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. This symptom should be that I like to be close to you. I can respond more appropriately."
The expression on the man's face softened, and he said indifferently "Yeah", but then he suddenly frowned and retorted, "When did I say it was me?"
The cool breeze blew lightly on the pharmacist's neck, and his heart rose to his throat, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault that I lost my mind and said something wrong."
snort!
It is obvious that there is no three hundred taels of silver here.
"Let's let this matter go. You can just get busy." Yanchen waved his hand expressionlessly, turned and left.
"Yes, thank you for your grace." The pharmacist wiped the sweat from his forehead, sent Yan Chen off respectfully, turned around and knelt down, and continued to cry about his big baby Bai Lingzi.
The night was silent, and a ghostly figure shuttled between the palaces, and soon disappeared into the vast night.
The moonlight sneaked into the window, spreading the silver light all over the floor, like a layer of finely divided glass, quiet and beautiful, like a dream.
On a full moon night, the night wind carries strong spiritual power, blowing on the cheeks with a refreshing feeling.
Yanchen walked into the room and closed the window tightly.
The cat on the bed slept soundly, with its small body lying under the brocade quilt, sprawled out and occupying his entire bed.
As a noble demon king with good moral character, he felt it was necessary to teach her some etiquette from an early age.
For example, sleep a little bit.
…
The next day, the sun shone into the room through the window, illuminating the two figures, one large and one small, on the bed.
The man's eyelashes twitched slightly, and then he slowly opened them. His eyes fell on the peaceful sleeping kitten beside him, with a trace of endearment flashing in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, the traitor who fled the Demon Realm a few days ago has been captured."
A call sounded outside the door, interrupting this warm scene.
The cat's head was buried in the quilt, as if she didn't want to be woken up. After Yanchen was fully dressed, he lowered his eyes and reached out to squeeze her fluffy little paws.
Then he picked up the cat and held it in his arms.
"Meow!"
Who is it! Disturbing people's dreams, not afraid of thunder and lightning?!
After Zhu Yu was reminded, he opened his eyes in confusion and looked at Yan Chen with a confused expression.
Well, it turned out to be this ancestor.
He is wearing a black brocade robe, with a blue silk ribbon tied around his waist. His hair is raised high, his posture is straight, his sword eyebrows fly into his temples, his face is handsome and resolute, his body is slender, and his whole body is filled with fierce killing intent.
spirit.
The two of them looked at each other, and Yan Chen raised his eyebrows, with an expression on his face: "Why don't you want to?"
Zhu Yu tilted his head and meowed softly twice to express his willingness.
The man stepped out, stood at the door, glanced at his subordinates at the door, and gave instructions in a calm and indifferent tone to bring all those people to the main hall.
"As commanded."
The subordinates outside the door were ordered to leave.
Zhu Yu blinked in confusion and let Yan Chen hold her and walk out.
Since I turned into a cat, my living habits are almost the same as those of a cat.
In the main hall, all the rebels knelt on the main hall, lowered their heads, and did not dare to breathe.
"Long time no see, how are you guys doing lately?" Yanchen looked down at them condescendingly, a cold light flashing across his eyes.
Nowadays, the three realms of immortals, demons and humans are standing in the same place. The demon clan has gone from ruling one realm in the past to merging with the human realm. They have been bullied everywhere. In recent years, they have relied on the Nine-tailed Fox King to gain some status after he ascended the throne.
But despite this, the demon clan is still weakening day by day, and has gradually reduced to the point where demons and monsters are mixed together.
Most of them are demonized people who want to refine the same kind of demons and kill each other. What's the use of keeping such demons?
Zhu Yu nestled on the throne next to Yan Chen, opened his eyes and scanned the people in the palace. Most of the traitors he caught were actually high-ranking demons.
The leader among them is the villain's sibling - the high-level seven-tailed fox king.
The others are easy to deal with, but this one is very difficult to deal with. He cannot be killed, nor can he be kept. If he is kept, it will become a disaster. If he is killed, it will cause more trouble.
Zhu Yu raised his eyes and his eyes wandered over the demon ministers. They were also hesitating, as if they were thinking of ways to save the chief minister.
"Dear King, please give me another chance. No one can sort out most of the issues in the Fox Clan."
