Ji Ying's teeth were chattering, her face was livid, murderous intent penetrated into her bones, and the blood in her body was almost frozen. She had no choice but to struggle and say: "That's... that's the devil born by Granny Min." infant……"
As soon as the words were spoken, countless magic lines suddenly appeared under the skin, shaking like ripples.
Wei Shiqi was stunned for a moment, finding it unbelievable, and sneered: "The devil baby was born? With whom?"
Ji Ying gritted her teeth and said with all her might, "There is no one. It is the demonic energy left by the master, which contains a ray of divine thoughts. Granny Min became pregnant with her divine thoughts and condensed into a baby. Although the egg has not broken into shape, it has the master's magical power." , tracing back to the source, we are all controlled by it, just like puppets..." Her voice became lower and lower, and with every word she said, the magic marks on her body deepened a few points, and they squirmed endlessly, rushing to her heart and vitals. Ji Ying smiled miserably, with a look of pleading in her eyes.
Life is so precious, and although living is difficult, she doesn't want to die.
Wei Shiqi stretched out his index finger and tapped Ji Ying's eyebrows gently. The dark skin cracked and a little blood seeped out. It was immediately stained by the demonic energy in the body, turning black like ink and trembling. Wei Shiqi raised his palm and pressed her forehead in vain. He quietly opened the demon realm and drew the devil's energy into the realm, dispelling it with restraint. The blood droplets finally rolled down her face, and the boiling magic pattern immediately settled down. Ji Ying felt relieved, glad that she had not made the wrong bet on this life-and-death bet.
Reciprocating the favor, she took the initiative to confess and whispered: "The demon baby in the egg inherited a ray of spiritual thoughts from its master, and it is like a clone. Only by finding the place where the master is trapped and becoming one can the success be fulfilled. This is originally There was something wrong with the master's back-up move, and it was still unable to break out of the egg. Grandma Min didn't understand, so she could only stay under the snowy field, watching over it day and night, and not daring to leave."
"Master? Who is your master?"
"...The master is a generation of demons who were rampant in Yingzhou back then. Granny Min called him 'Lord Yuwen'."
Wei Shiqi breathed out softly, and it turned out to be him, the Heavenly Demon Yu Wenshi who was trapped in the Chaos Qi Cave Sky Lock. The six stars fell, and a ray of spiritual thought escaped from the body of the demon phoenix, and was hunted by the iron puppet. There was no way to the sky, no way to the earth, and in the end he disappeared. As expected, he is a difficult master, and he has left a trace of his spiritual thoughts in this world, entrusting them to the remnants who slipped through the net, hiding deep in the snowfields of the far north, underground without seeing the light of day, waiting for an opportunity to make a comeback.
"Then what is Granny Min's origin?"
"She is the master's concubine. She has always been loyal to the master. She spent a lot of energy when giving birth to the magic baby, and her appearance has aged, turning her into what she is now."
Wei Shiqi nodded, and after questioning him carefully for a long time, he found that Ji Ying's knowledge was quite limited. She was originally a native of this place, one of the monster kings under the snowfield, and the Queen of Nine-section Ants. She surrendered to Granny Min. She was controlled by the devil's energy and had to surrender and be driven by her. Fortunately, the demon baby was never born, and the control of the demonic energy was loose and tight. Granny Min had to have this capable subordinate. She was very kind to her. Although she was more restrained, she also learned some weird magical methods. , much beyond his peers.
The demon infant is still young, and the demonic energy cannot be wasted. Granny Min chooses her subordinates very carefully. In addition to Ji Ying and Pei Ding, there are also three underground demon and insect kings to collect nourishing materials for them to replenish their energy and prolong their lives. Although those people are smart, they are not as sophisticated as Ji Ying and can only do rough work. Grandma Min doesn't take them seriously and doesn't allow them to get close to the cave where the demon baby hides.
Wei Shiqi's intrusion was an unexpected surprise. Granny Min took a fancy to his extremely powerful torso, comparable to a black dragon, demon and phoenix. She decided to find a new way and took the risk to move a ray of spiritual thought left by Yu Wenshi into it and take it as her own. , but by mistake, Master Jingyun's sword from the sky destroyed everything. Before he could say his last words, his soul was annihilated and his body died. Ji Ying and Pei Ding were left behind to guard the demon baby and support the crisis alone. .
Rumors abounded in Huangbei City. Even Jiaofu knew that there was a dark force lurking under the snowfield. General Tang Luo believed it or not and ignored it. The two deputy city lords Jin and Shen did not dare to provoke easily, but they did not expect that this force actually existed and did not Remaining in the body of Granny Min, the remnant of the demon, the rest is gone. As soon as the old woman died, everything she had worked so hard for fell apart and was in danger. If it weren't for the Demon Infant, Ji Ying would have left Pei Ding and fled away, and she wouldn't be willing to stay here.
Ji Ying explained everything clearly, and Wei Shiqi nodded in agreement. This made sense. Granny Min was a foreigner who was avoiding trouble, and she was not a reborn demon. How could she rise to become the overlord of a party in such a short period of time. Taking advantage of the rebellion of the demon slaves and the chaos in the world, it is a wise move to hide under the snowfield. Keeping it secret will make people unable to see the details and dare not act rashly. If she dares to be exposed to the light of day, even if she has the ability to reach the sky comparable to the master Xian Sheng. , how can we resist the demon slaves and monks who attack in groups!
He touched Ji Ying's head and said, "Okay, I'll spare your life."
As soon as these words came out, Ji Ying breathed a sigh of relief, she was sweating profusely and almost collapsed. Eager to show her attitude to her new master, she flattered her and said, "Sir, there is quite a lot of produce under this snowy field. Do you want me to summon the three monster kings to come and see you?"
"Not busy at all." Wei Shiqi stood up and walked to the broken stone platform, only to see that the black egg was swelling and shrinking much faster, and all the evil energy was absorbed into the egg without leaking out at all. He took out the Dragon-Slaying True Yin Knife from his brocade bag and patted the tough egg shell, hesitating a little. Should he destroy it with one blow or try to keep it as his own?
Ji Ying was shocked and whispered: "Sir...are you planning to take out the magic baby?"
"Is there anything wrong?"
Ji Ying said tremblingly: "The demon baby has not yet fully formed, so...take it out early, for fear of unexpected events..."
"What's going to happen?"
"I heard Granny Min mention that once the demon infant is defeated, the demonic energy will be unchecked and will corrode living creatures unscrupulously, annihilating their consciousness, and turning them into cruel and bloodthirsty inferior monsters."
"Like you guys?"
"Sir, we are not monsters, we are just puppets infected by demonic energy and driven by others. The demonic energy condenses into magic patterns in the body and does not swallow up the mind."
"Interesting... When you are driven by others, who is driving you? Yuwen? The Demon Infant? Or Granny Min?"
Ji Ying was at a loss for words. She had never thought about this problem before. She paused and said vaguely: "There is only one demon, but it has thousands of incarnations. Whoever the demonic energy belongs to, we will obey his orders."
Wei Shiqi thought thoughtfully, patting Hei Yao gently with the back of his knife, and murmured: "Leaving you here will be a disaster after all. What do you think should be done?"
As if sensing his threat, the black egg swelled sharply, cracked open with a "click", and fine lines of ice cracks filled the egg shell, like a punctured skin bag. The black egg quickly shriveled up, and a pair of slender arms broke free. Come out, your fingers, palms, wrists, and arms are as white as jade, flawless.
Ji Ying couldn't help but take a few steps back and said solemnly: "The devil baby is born!"
