"My lord..."

The three-tailed white fox, with its tail drooping and its hair dull, quickly raised its head after seeing the green snake that had returned to its original shape, and asked anxiously: "My lord, what did they do to you?"

Green Snake still maintains the posture of half body coiled and half body upright, head turned back, eyes staring straight at Yu Xi, eyes a little dull, Xinzi who was halfway through vomiting also froze there, motionless, as if someone had cast a body-holding spell.

Dharma-like.

The three-tailed white fox was held in place by a tentacle extending from the ground. He could only watch from a distance, extremely anxious, "My lord, what's wrong with you?"

During the struggle, a lot of fox hair fell from his body, and half of his tail was bald, making him look even bald in an instant.

His "Lord" several times finally brought the stiff Green Snake back to his senses.

At this moment, her cold eyes were still full of surprise and inquiry.

"That green snake seems to know you." Chu Yan's voice sounded in Yu Xi's sea of ​​consciousness.

The two of them had the same opinion, and Yu Xi also noticed that the way Green Snake looked at him seemed to be familiar.

This look is like seeing someone you have known for a long time, but who shouldn't be here.

Yu Xi became more and more confused. When the words came to her lips, she was about to ask. She saw the raised head of the green snake suddenly drooped. She lowered her head and spoke first, "It turns out it's you. If you want to ask anything, just ask."

Her words shocked Elder Mai and others as well as the three-tailed white fox who was bound not far away.

After the surprise, Elder Mai's face was the first to show surprise.

That’s how it should be!

What kind of person is your Majesty?

This cunning green snake must have recognized the identity of Your Majesty, so it obeyed and stopped escaping, allowing Your Majesty to interrogate it.

"Your Majesty, please rest for a moment and leave it to your subordinates for trial?" Elder Mai volunteered, controlled the three hurricanes surrounding the Green Snake to disperse a little, and came forward.

Green Snake glanced at him coldly, ignored him, and only looked at Yu Xi.

That look clearly said that she would only accept Yu Xi's interrogation.

"Come here." Yu Xi took a step forward with her right foot, and her figure instantly moved to a position directly in front of the green snake and at eye level with it. The distance between them was only five feet.

Those deep eyes remained motionless, as if waiting for Yu Xi to ask questions.

The person who had been trying to escape just now had a completely different attitude after seeing Yu Xi. Such a huge contrast could not help but make people feel worried.

Could it be that this green snake had some back-up plan, deliberately trying to retreat in order to advance?

"Your Majesty, please be careful." Elder Mai hurriedly sent a message to remind.

Yu Xi nodded slightly, indicating that she knew.

The people who were trying their best to escape just now completely changed their attitude after seeing Yu Xi. Such a huge contrast made Elder Mai and others unable to help but worry.

Could it be that this green snake deliberately retreated in order to advance, and did it leave some serious back-ups?

Yu Xi never lowered her guard. She controlled the Qiankun Bagua Formation flag to continuously tighten, shrinking all the power of the formation flag into this illusion, and guarding the illusion into an indestructible iron barrel, putting an end to the false intentions of the "fake demon lord"

Surrender, the possibility of escape.

"Who are you?" Yu Xi asked the first question.

The green snake vomited slightly and made a hissing sound. He raised his eyes and stared at Yu Xi's expression and replied, "Transform into a silver-scaled green snake, Qing Lan."

It is said that Yu Xi's only exposed cultivation level is Nascent Soul, and Green Snake has reached the realm of Hedao, but she did not show any indifference to Yu Xi's questions and answered extremely seriously.

Silver-scaled green snake.

Yu Xi recited the name twice in her mind, and suddenly remembered what kind of monster it was.

Because of its smooth and tender skin and tender and delicious meat, it is known as the most suitable snake demon for cooking snake soup.

Later, for unknown reasons, the number became even rarer. Today, the silver-scaled green snake rarely appears on the dining table. It can only be seen at top-level banquets, and the price is as high as high-grade elixirs.

This was the first time Yu Xi saw a silver-scale green snake with her own eyes. The silver scale on its forehead and the three silver rings on the tip of its tail are its two most recognizable features. It is said that the meat on this snake is the most tender and the most essence.

Yes, these are the two places.

Yu Xi then asked the second question, "Why pretend to be the Demon Lord?"

Green Snake's eyes wandered around Elder Mai and the two demon spirits, and finally fell back on Yu Xi. He explained sincerely: "It was not my intention to assume the identity of the Demon Lord. I came out of the natural chasm of the Western Territory and came here.

Just want to plan

I have to find a place to live and take in these monster beasts who share my fate and are in a miserable situation. I have never called myself Demon Lord. As for the so-called Lord, it is just a title that everyone calls me spontaneously in gratitude for my saving their lives.

That’s all.”

When he said this, the snake's head was slightly lowered, as if it was a bit lonely.

Yu Xi believed what it said, but only half of it at most.

The monster beasts stationed in the blood pool in the Demon Palace do have something in common with the silver-scaled green snake in front of them. Their biggest common feature is that they are all low-level monster beasts with low bloodline power and insufficient innate abilities.

But he has cultivated to a level that is difficult for his own race to achieve.

How exactly do they do it?

Yu Xi was not in a hurry to question the silver-scaled green snake's words. She cast a scrutinizing gaze on the top of its head, not giving it any time to think, and then asked the third question, "Where did the soul-eating worm in your hand come from?"

According to Elder Mai, soul-eating insects have appeared twice in the past hundred years.

The first time it appeared was in the far west of Beizhou, further west than the Dingkun Mountain where the spiritual veins are now discovered. The location is just close to the western boundary. It is hard not to think of the several times when the Soul-eating Insect caused trouble, all of which were related to Silver Scale.

Green snake related.

The silver-scaled green snake still lowered its head and answered respectfully and cooperatively: "It has only been less than twenty years since the Demon Palace was built. These insects were accidentally found in a nest near the sea after I built the Demon Palace. There were only three of them at first, and they kept growing.

It was through reproduction and cultivation that we achieved our current scale.”

Without waiting for Yu Xi to ask again, she took the initiative and said, "I cultivate these soul-eating insects to wash and purify the power of blood in my body. Now that I have the cultivation level of Hedao, these insects are useless to me. If you need it, I can

Leave all these mother worms and daughter worms to you."

If all these soul-eating insects were released, it would be enough to cause a bloody storm in Beizhou.

These bugs are not expected to be given for free.

Yu Xi's eyes fell on the silver scales on her forehead, stared at it for a moment, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you want?"

The snake's head, which had been hanging down, finally raised slightly, and the cold light in his eyes disappeared, leaving only full sincerity.

"I want to take these monsters and monks under me to seek refuge with you. The entire Demon Palace, as well as all the treasures I have collected over the years, will be dedicated to you. I wonder if you are willing to accept us?"

After a pause, the snake's mouth curved, opened slightly, and spit out four words.

"Lord Demon Lord."

At the same time as the words rang out, a bloody mouth appeared in front of Yu Xi's eyes, and the sharp fangs flashed with cold light and struck straight towards her neck.
