But at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of running outside the palace, and the demon clan guarding the lake stumbled in. Without even realizing the tense atmosphere in the palace, they knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, someone has broken into Taiji Lake!"
King Leiyin turned his long neck and swallowed the little demon guarding the lake in one gulp.
The little demon guarding the lake only had time to let out a miserable cry.
The half-demon young man and the snake girl Qing'er held each other's heads and shuddered at the same time when they heard the sound.
King Leiyin returned to his human form and burped.
The upper demon clan asked, "Your Majesty, I will send people to search immediately!"
With his long scarlet tongue curled up at the corner of his mouth, King Leiyin smiled ferociously, "Here we are finally."
Chapter 159
In the back kitchen of Leiyin Demon Clan's main hall, there were bursts of cries and screams, mixed with the sound of crackling sparks.
The snake girl Qing'er and the young half-demon were dragged into the kitchen by two pot-bellied demons, and their whole bodies were tied up.
The large vat is three feet high, and the rim around the mouth is ten feet taller. A hill-like pile of firewood is burning fiercely under the vat.
There are elevated shelves on both sides of the large vat, and two wooden boards extend from the elevated shelves to the top of the large vat. Looking from top to bottom, the boiling soup with few ingredients is bubbling, as if it is a frying pan hell.
A pig-faced monster dressed as a chef stood on a wooden board and stirred the vat with a six-foot-long iron rod.
Even though they had long heard about the scene in the kitchen, the snake girl Qing'er and the young half-demon were still so frightened by this posture that they were unwilling to move.
Then two demons forcibly dragged her away and threw her next to the fire. The snake girl and the half-demon were so frightened that they stayed together and did not dare to look.
The chef looked down and shouted in a sharp voice, "Look what I saw. Isn't this the snake boss's precious daughter? Oh, there's also a leopard hybrid."
He narrowed his eyes and smiled, "What does this mean? Your Majesty wants them to come for extra dinner?"
The escorting monsters also laughed, "These two guys actually wanted to assassinate the king. Originally, the king wanted to eat them directly, but he was filled by another reckless guy, so he said he would send them to the back kitchen for the big monster. Let’s add some soup.”
"It's easy to handle. I'll boil the soup in a while. I'll throw it in for them later and it will be ready to serve in half an hour." The chef glanced at She Qing again, "But that's how I cooked Boss Snake's soup. Baby girl, the snake boss won’t take revenge on me secretly, right?”
"Boss Snake has no time to come to the kitchen to look for you." The escorting demon clan said casually, "Besides, Boss Snake said that if the demon clan offends the king, it means that if the demon clan is not a snake clan, they will eat it, and they will also fight against the king. Let’s use it together.”
"Hehe, Boss Snake is still generous. Not long ago, a silly leopard appeared in the leopard tribe. He actually fell in love with a human woman and refused to cook the half-demon cub that was so tender that it could squeeze out water. Isn't that right? , The king looked at Fan, and immediately caught him and sent him to the kitchen, and then got out of the soup pot." The chef chuckled, "Brother, do you want to take a taste, this soup still has the fresh flavor from last time. .”
The eyes of the two demon clan escorts lit up and they stepped forward seriously.
When the two half-demon who were thrown aside heard this, their eyes turned red and stared as if they were about to fall to the ground. They were about to pounce on them and kill them the next moment, but She Qing pulled him to stop his emotions. burst out.
Even so, the group of monsters didn't notice at all, and they didn't pay attention to the food at all.
"That's my father!"
The young half-demon gritted his teeth and whispered.
"I know, I know, but we can't save him." She Qing murmured in pain.
The young half-demon seemed to be awakened. He closed his eyes tightly and turned his head. He seemed to be blaming himself for being useless, why he didn't come earlier, and why he wasn't strong enough to kill King Leiyin.
"Bao Wu..." She Qing whispered the young half-demon's name. This name is the name of the pure demon clan. Only the pure demon clan will use race as a surname. In any case, this at least shows that his father is not like other demons. The tribe regards half-demon as a bastard and as food.
Bao Wu looked down at She Qing, "You shouldn't have helped me."
"How can I watch you die? As long as I can be with you, even if we get into the soup pot together, I won't be afraid." Snake Girl cried.
"But they actually want your father to eat us together!" Bao Wu, who had lived in the human city for many years, could not imagine such an arrangement.
"The Snake Clan has a nest of seven or eight little demons. He won't care. Didn't he send me to the hall today? If I enter King Leiyin's room, I will be eaten sooner or later."
"Fresh...it's so fresh." The demon clan next to them were still tasting the soup.
"What's going on here? All the ingredients are added, and those two little guys with thin skin and tender meat make it even more delicious." Chef Yaozu said with a smile.
The escorting demon clan licked his lips and looked at She Qing and Bao Wu, "They look tender, especially the cubs of Mr. Snake. It's a pity that I can't taste them anymore. We have to go back to guard the main hall. Something happened in Taiji Lake, Lord Demon None of them left."
"This is strange." The chef said smoothly, and then said to the escorting demon clan, "How about I leave a bowl for my brother?"
"Oh? You are really a good brother. I will come back to find you." The two escorting demons walked out happily.
She Qing huddled in Bao Wu's arms. Chef Yao Zu looked at the boiling point of the soup and shouted at Xiao Yao to bring some more seasoning.
He was half-leaning on the iron rod and looking at She Qing and Bao Wu who were leaning on each other below with a smile.
"We in Lei Yinze have never seen such loving monsters as you." He clicked his tongue and said, "I don't know if the taste will be more delicious when the loving monsters cook it."
Even though the two demons had already accepted their fate, they were still angry and annoyed when they heard what the chef demon said. Bao Wu stared at him coldly.
"You bastard, how dare you disrespect your Grandpa Pig, little ones!"
"Here we are!" Several thin little demons jumped down from the cupboard, only half the size of normal humans. "Master Pig, what are your orders?"
"Go, go clean these two guys and put them in the pot later. Our king is still waiting."
"okay!"
As he said that, several little demons got on all fours and ran towards the two demons quickly, and the two demons hugged each other even tighter.
Bao Wu was unwilling to give in. He grabbed the dry firewood stick on the ground and tried to make a final struggle. However, he did not expect to wait until those little demons rushed over. Suddenly, he found that the little demons were all frozen in place, and the chef demon clan above also It was frozen.
She Qing also noticed this situation. She looked around nervously and asked in a panicked voice, "What...what's wrong?"
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the kitchen. They were so light that the two demons would have been almost undetectable if they hadn't stepped on the dry branches and made a "click" sound.
The next moment, they saw a figure walking in, wearing a cloud-like cloak, with his face covered under the hood of the cloak.
But the two demons were still extremely frightened. The person's aura didn't have any demonic aura at all, and he was a human being.
But, how could a human being appear in Lei Yinze silently? What kind of strength is this?
"You...who are you?"
Bao Wu asked nervously.
Zhao Ning raised her head slightly, revealing a beautiful face, "I think we should have met before."
Bao Wu's eyes narrowed, "It's you...it's you! The one in the weapon refining room of Guantian City!"
Zhao Ning glanced across the hellish kitchen. There were huge cabinets on both sides, ten times the size of ordinary ones. There were dozens of large drawers on them. Each drawer was marked with demonic writing. Zhao Ning could recognize the demonic writing. It's all uncomfortable material.
The cabinet was more or less stained with filth, and it was unclear whether it was blood or some other slurry. Behind the cauldron was a huge prison, in which many people and half-demon were imprisoned. There are a few authentic demon clans faintly visible.
These are the food for King Leiyin and the great demons.
"You want to escape?" Zhao Ning asked calmly.
She Qing and Bao Wu looked at each other, and of course they wanted to leave. She Qing asked in a low voice, "Can... really escape?"
"As long as you listen to me."
The words were normal, but Bao Wu suddenly realized that he had said these words to several other half-demon in Guantian City, and they were exactly the same word for word.
"You...you...you..." He thought about the unexpected smoothness of his entry, and then thought about the fact that the human race clearly knew the secret plan. Could it be...could it be that she helped him.
Zhao Ning threw down a wooden hairpin.
Bao Wu was startled and crawled to the wooden hairpin on his knees, "This is my mother's!"
He stared at Zhao Ning in disbelief, hesitating and hesitating, but fortunately he was not stupid enough to think that Zhao Ning had done something evil to his mother.
"She is waiting for you and your brother in Guantian City."
At this moment, Bao Wu's suppressed emotions finally broke out.
He knelt on the ground and rested his head on the wooden hairpin, as if to absorb the remaining warmth.
"mother!"
Zhao Ning moved her fingertips, and the rope binding the two demons was disconnected.
Leopard Warrior held the wooden hairpin tightly in his hand, and Snake Qing swam to his side.
"Great, your mother and brother are not dead!"
When Bao Wu broke into Lei Yinze, he had no intention of assassinating King Lei Yin. He originally wanted to take out his mother and brother, but he did not find his mother and brother. Instead, he heard that his father had been ordered by King Lei Yin. After cooking, my mother and brother fell into the hands of other demon clan, and they were already in danger.
This made him furious and in great pain, and he chose to do such a fatal thing, which also affected She Qing.
Bao Wu wiped away his tears and looked up at Zhao Ning respectfully, "Whatever you need me to do, I will do whatever it takes, through fire and water, no matter what."
She Qing also nodded, "Yes, yes, we will do our best to help the master."
Zhao Ning asked, "How many half-demon and humans are there in Lei Yinze?"
She Qing knew better than Bao Wu, "Just the chef, there are probably more than three hundred people in the prison."
The "food" in the prison behind the cauldron was still fixed. Their faces were all haggard and angry. Eighty percent of them were half-demon, 10% were human, mostly women, and 10% were monsters.
"I heard that there are still several human monks in the foundation building period imprisoned down there, and they have been imprisoned for at least a hundred years." She Qing thought for a while, "There are also almost hundreds of half-demon and human beings in each demon clan's lair. It's winter, and many demon tribes have captured many half-demons and humans to spend the winter." After all, only 10% of the demon tribes in Lei Yinze Bigu, and the demon tribes are also very greedy.
At this time, Zhao Ning raised his hand, and his fingertips drew a strange pattern in the air, an ancient cloud pattern - "broken".
"Broken" fell on Bao Wu's palm.
"What's this?"
"He can open all the prison restrictions." Zhao Ning smiled lightly, "I need a chaos."
She lowered her eyes and met Bao Wu's seemingly understanding gaze.
"A chaos that makes all the great demons give up on King Leiyin."
Bao Wu and She Qing looked at each other with cruel expressions on their lips.
"We'll do it right away. We won't let our seniors down."
The people in the back kitchen prison were still being restrained, and Zhao Ning could handle it on his own, so they went to the secret prison instead.
The surroundings fell into silence first. Zhao Ning looked at this ridiculous kitchen inch by inch. With a flash of light on his fingertips, the prison was released. Then the prison chain broke with a "click" and all the "food" was returned. Before I had time to think about what happened, I was flooded with surprises.
Just waiting for it to be quiet again, she raised her eyes to look at the chef and the little monsters who had not yet been released from the imprisonment. Her expression did not change at all until Zhao Ning disappeared in the back kitchen. The imprisonment was suddenly released, and there was only a "click" of the wooden board, and they all fell into the boiling water. in the soup vat.
They have spent their whole lives frying other people and being evil, and today it is finally their turn.
Every big demon in the main hall left, but the atmosphere in the hall was extremely weird.
Some big monsters couldn't help but look outside. Apparently they also heard the noise outside. Some big monsters glanced furtively at King Leiyin on the high platform, but the king still maintained his previous posture, eating grapes and raising his eyebrows. His feet seemed leisurely and strategizing, but no demon noticed his tense neck.
