143: The poor Saintess Chi Ling Demon Queen has started another project.

"Sell me?"

Queen Cailin's lips curled into a cold sneer, "Let's see who sells whom."

With that, she gracefully walked up to Cao Meng, straightened his clothes, and a hint of reluctance appeared on her stunning, ice-queen-like face. "Be good, and don't forget to chop off that Little Brat named Xiao Yan for me."

"I'm borrowing the shen ya sword, and also, give my regards to Xuanyuan Baiying."

As she spoke, her eyes actually turned red.

Seeing the tsundere Queen like this, Cao Meng also felt a pang of reluctance. "Colorful Scale, why don't we just stay? I still have over a thousand pills of the Joyful Harmony Divine Charm Elixir; let's consume them together?"

Over the past half-month, Cao Meng and his companions had consumed nearly half of the Joyful Harmony Divine Charm Elixir in one go, and along the way, they had also refined the innate fire spirit pearl.

Their Cultivation soared.

The Martial Empress successfully entered the Divine Emperor Realm. Queen Cailin, with the help of the Great Sun True Flame, even advanced two minor levels, reaching the Late Stage of the Divine Emperor Realm.

As for Cao Meng, although he absorbed most of the essence, due to his powerful Cultivation Technique and the immense spiritual energy required for the Eternal Body's advancement, he only just managed to Cultivate to the Early Stage of the Divine Emperor Realm.

However, in terms of combat power, Cao Meng would certainly surpass Her Majesty the Queen.

And this was even without Cao Meng using his Divine Ability to burst forth or infusing spiritual energy into his xuantian spirit treasure.

"Forget it, a gentle embrace is a Queen's tomb."

Queen Cailin shook her head. If she continued to be with this guy, she feared she would forget her entire clan.

"Let's go, Big Fox."

Saying that, she took Wu Feiyan's small hand and turned to leave.

"Wait!"

Cao Meng called out to them.

With a thought, a Divine Demon Incarnation with black feathered wings appeared before them.

"This is, Dijiang?"

Colorful Scale looked in astonishment at the Divine Demon before her, which resembled an iron tower.

Isn't this the Witch-Demon God Dijiang recorded in the ancient ruins?

However, the aura on its body was exactly the same as her Little Thief Cao.

At this moment, Colorful Scale was speechless.

She had known this little man was powerful, but she hadn't expected him to have obtained so many Heaven-Defying Opportunities. He had even condensed an Incarnation of the Demon God Dijiang.

"No wonder your comprehension of the Origin of space is so strong. So... you really are a freak."

Cao Meng nodded. "The journey into the vast unknown is fraught with danger. The Dijiang Incarnation will follow you. If you encounter danger, Dijiang's speed and methods can ensure your safety."

Of the twelve Divine Demon Incarnations, six were left with Empress Xuanyuan Xuanyuan Baizhi, responsible for guarding against attacks from the Yinkui Sect.

Now, only six remained by Cao Meng's side. After sending out Dijiang, Cao Meng didn't plan to keep the remaining five with him either; he left them all to his Senior Sister.

Currently, within the Eastern Continent, demons danced chaotically.

Old Monk Fahai also didn't know when he would come knocking, so Cao Meng had to be prepared.

"Alright, my Queen Colorful Scale, we should go now." Seeing Colorful Scale, who usually maintained an ice-queen demeanor, reluctantly parting with Cao Meng, Wu Feiyan was speechless. Could this Queen be a fake?

After Empress Revered Master and Colorful Scale left, Cao Meng also returned to White Deer Academy with the Little Demoness Ming Li and the Red-Clad Female Demon Head Yan Yumo.

There was still a Potalaka Saintess waiting there.

White Deer Academy, Ganquan Palace.

After the Martial Empress resigned as Vice Headmaster, her position at White Deer Academy was naturally succeeded by the current Empress Qingluan, and Ganquan Palace also became Empress Qingluan's temporary residence.

Under the moonlight,

Potalaka Saintess Xu Fenghua, dressed in plain white, held a pot of clear wine, idly gazing at the sky.

"Why hasn't that Thief Cao returned yet? He couldn't have died outside, could he?"

In her mind, she couldn't help but recall that Thief Cao.

During this time, while helping the Black-Robed Holy Spirit restore her Origin, she secretly hid in the Demon Suppression Prison, absorbing Evil Qi and Cultivating the Nine Tribulation Demon Codex.

With the Divine Healing Body as a divine aid, all the so-called life-and-death tribulations of the Nine Tribulation Demon Codex became mere decorations.

Her Cultivation also advanced rapidly.

Finally, not long ago, relying on her tenacious will, she passed the third tribulation, the Heart Demon Tribulation.

She successfully broke through to the Saint Realm.

However, ever since her Cultivation entered the third realm, she couldn't help but think of that hateful face and what he had done to her.

It wasn't too bad at first.

She could still reluctantly Cultivate.

But today, she found that she simply couldn't Cultivate peacefully anymore.

As soon as the Cultivation Technique circulated, Heart Demons immediately emerged.

And the Heart Demon, naturally, was Cao Meng.

"Thief Cao, I will definitely kill you!"

"But, why do I feel a little reluctant... No, this Thief Cao is despicable and shameless..."

Clink~

The wine cup in her hand shattered.

"What is wrong with me? That enchantress Chi Ling didn't tell me that the Heart Demon Tribulation was this difficult. Could it be..." Her Highness the Saintess vigorously shook her head.

"Your Highness the Saintess, do you hate that Thief Cao so much?"

Just then, a voice came from behind.

Xu Fenghua abruptly turned her head, only to see Chi Ling Demon Empress approaching her gracefully in a black immortal dress.

"Chi Ling, you're finally back!"

Xu Fenghua stood up abruptly. "Tell me honestly, is there something wrong with this Nine Tribulation Demon Codex? Why, why..."

"Why do you always involuntarily think of Cao Meng, right?" Chi Ling's star-like eyes held a smile.

"Exactly!" Xu Fenghua said in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on?"

Chi Ling said matter-of-factly, "That just proves that Cao Meng is your Heart Demon. If the Heart Demon is not eliminated, it will be difficult to Breakthrough for the rest of your life."

Xu Fenghua's expression changed. "Then, how can I eliminate the Heart Demon?"

"Simple, two methods." Chi Ling Demon Empress extended two fingers. "First, if you can't beat him, join him. Become his woman."

"Impossible!" Xu Fenghua said resolutely.

Chi Ling Demon Empress: "Second, kill him, and the Heart Demon will naturally be eliminated!"

"Kill him?" Xu Fenghua was stunned.

"What, you're reluctant?" Chi Ling Demon Empress said with a hint of teasing.

Xu Fenghua subconsciously said, "Reluctant? Hmph, Thief Cao and I have a deep-seated hatred. I wish I could pull out his tendons and skin him!"

"Oh." Chi Ling looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said with a sigh, "Then I must congratulate you."

"Congratulate?" Xu Fenghua looked at her, puzzled.

Xu Fenghua: "Because, Cao Meng, is dead! Killed by someone..."

"What?"

Xu Fenghua was stunned, her eyes wide. On her beautiful face, besides shock and disbelief, there was not a trace of relief or joy.

"How is that possible? That villain is so powerful, how could he be dead? Impossible, you must be lying to me..."

As she spoke, Xu Fenghua's clear beautiful eyes turned red, and she grabbed Chi Ling Demon Empress's shoulders. "Tell me, you're lying to me!"

Chi Ling Demon Empress still shook her head. "No, he really is dead. Not a complete corpse, dead beyond dead. Otherwise, how could I have escaped his grasp?"

Upon hearing this, Her Highness the Saintess's aura became erratic. Her true essence and magical power surged wildly within her body, and her bright eyes began to lose focus. "Impossible, impossible! That villain is so cunning and has Spirit Treasure protection, how could he die? Impossible~"
