Starting as a complete failure, he leads the demon race to sweep across the lower realm.

Chapter 74 The Ethereal Cat Awakens

"How are things going outside? I'm going to turn this Fengyang main city into complete chaos!"

A dark figure transformed into human form and knelt down, but did not raise its head.

"Master, everything is arranged. The riot tomorrow night will be even bigger! Those three fearless family disciples will also be sent on their way!"

In the dark room, the boy covered his face, his eyes filled with evil light.

Thanks to the 'get stronger' plan that Li Yang arranged for him, his day was packed with activities!

In the morning, he was double-teamed by Li Yang and Rou Jie in the Queen's courtyard. They claimed it was to teach him, the princess's servant, some self-defense skills, while simultaneously criticizing him as useless!

If he weren't afraid of revealing his identity to Rouhong, he would have crushed these two to death long ago!

In the afternoon, Li Yang went to the pharmacy. He originally wanted to cause trouble, but before he even entered the door, he was sent to sweep the floor. After sweeping the floor, he swept the outhouse. After finishing all that, Li Yang still arranged for him to climb trees to prune branches and go down to the ground to catch insects!

After five days, Dong Xiubei, who was already thin, became even more haggard, and his face was swollen and sunken.

How could a demon lord like him tolerate such humiliation! He must take revenge!

Li Yang, I want to see if your beloved father and mother will imprison you in the imperial mausoleum or kill you if you have fallen into evil!

Tonight will not be a night of rest...

Palace study.

The flickering candlelight illuminated Feng Mo's weary face in the main seat. Even Shan Hong, who had been full of vigor when Li Yang saw him a few days ago, had dark circles under his eyes, as if he had just gone through a life-or-death struggle and was exhausted.

"Your Majesty, we captured five corrupted citizens tonight and have imprisoned them in the underground imperial mausoleum."

Feng Mo rubbed his temples. "Yes, thank you for your hard work. Fortunately, the major families all understand the principle of shared prosperity and shared loss and are willing to send people. I heard that the Li family, Zeng family, and Mo family also sent their three young heirs? How strong are they?"

Speaking of this, Shan Hong finally perked up a bit, "I didn't believe those three kids could fight the evil race before. After all, even we are a little scared when we see evil ghosts. But that kid from the Li family led a wolf demon and he was in charge. The other two charged even more fiercely than our brothers!"

Shan Hong had never admired anyone, but those three were true men!

Feng Mo nodded, "Yes, but we still need to be careful to protect them. We can let them get the limelight, but it will be difficult if something happens to them."

"Yes!"

After Shan Hong left, Feng Mo sat alone for a long time.

The evil race has made a comeback at this time, presumably after making ample preparations. His biggest worry now is the palace banquet in a little over a month. If the evil army launches a surprise attack, Feng Yang doesn't know how they will survive this crisis.

It seems we still need to make several more plans.

The next day was peaceful. Li Yang took Dong Xiu north to suffer, only to be told that Rou Hong and Rou Jie had been summoned to the front hall by the emperor for a meeting and would not be back for a while.

Li Yang then took him to find Yun Leizi, who said the same thing.

Dong Xiubei, who was following behind her, lowered his head and sneered. It seemed that the emperor was starting to panic.

Feeling bored, Li Yang took Lian'er out shopping.

Having not left the palace for a long time, Lian'er was very excited, but Dong Xiubei, who was following behind them, remained silent.

Li Yang kept a close eye on him while distracted by answering Lian'er's conversation with her.

But keenness is ingrained in a doctor's bones. Li Yang noticed that the atmosphere on the street was extremely heavy today. The hawkers and vendors were shouting half-dead, glancing around nervously from time to time, as if they were afraid that a monster might suddenly jump out from the shadows.

Even Lian'er sensed that today was unusual, and after a short while, she lost interest and said she wanted to go back.

Li Yang also noticed something: she used to spot a few demons mixed in with the crowd when she went out, but she didn't see a single one today.

It was very unusual, just as unusual as the Emperor suddenly summoning everyone to a meeting.

When Li Yang returned to the palace, she happened to arrive just as the palace banquet was ending. She overheard a minister passing by whispering that the sacrificial ceremony for the palace banquet would be reinstated this year.

Li Yang was somewhat bewildered. In her memory, the sacrificial ceremony had been abolished after Feng Mo ascended to the throne.

The sacrificial offerings had to be a hundred live demons captured from the Silent Forest. These demons were thrown into the burning altar fire to be destroyed, supposedly to purify the demonic energy and pray for the Fengyang Kingdom's well-being.

Feng Mo seized the throne through his own strength, so he never believed in these illusory things. As soon as he took the throne, he abolished this cruel ritual and left only the palace banquets where the people could celebrate together.

Li Yang's eyes flickered slightly, and she already had a plan in mind.

As night fell and all was quiet, the ethereal cat lying on her pillow suddenly opened its eyes, slapped Li Yang hard with its tail, and then nimbly ran away.

Li Yang, who was jolted awake: ?

But the necessary procedures still had to be followed, so she hurriedly got up and followed, calling out, "Colorful Cat, where are you going!"

The shadowy figure hiding outside the room silently retreated, but if he looked closely, he would have noticed that Li Yang was still wearing the same pink dress she had worn during the day.

With Rouhong's guidance over the past few days, Li Yang's cultivation improved rapidly. Seeing that she couldn't wake the illusory spirit cat no matter how she called, she summoned the Peach Moon Fan and swung it out.

A pale pink spiritual energy flashed through the darkness, and Li Yang's pupils gleamed silver in the darkness. Soon after, a heavy thud was heard, followed by a dog's howl that pierced the sky.

"Ouch! Who littered like that?!"

Upon hearing the voice, Li Yang paused, and then a familiar voice rang out again, "That's the fat cat demon beside Li Yang! How did it suddenly fall from the sky?"

Peach Moon Fan was sheathed, and Li Yang moved swiftly through the night like a fox, her body slightly hunched.

"What! How did the princess's cat end up here?"

"We're surrounded! How can there be so many evil people?!"

"No, these evil beings are intelligent; they're almost at the Shadow level of the evil race!"

The darkness and chaos amplified everyone's fear, and Shan Hong sensed that the Imperial Guards' hearts were beginning to falter!

"Don't panic! Protect the three young masters, let's retreat towards the trap!"

The group managed to maintain their formation, but it crumbled like loose sand after a piercing scream. "Ah! I've been bitten by an evil being!"

Li Su patted Gray Big beside him, "Go, cover the rear."

"Ouch!"

The gray shadow flashed by, and with a single tail, it swept away a large group of evil people, finally allowing them to see the number of evil people clearly.

"My God, how can there be so many!"

"Are we going to die?"

Dan Hong tried his best to maintain order, but the Imperial Guards were only made of flesh and blood, just with more spiritual power than ordinary people. Under the shadow of death, they would eventually be afraid.

Holding the unconscious ethereal cat, Zeng Xu asked with a serious expression, "What should we do?"

Having fought side by side so many times, they were no longer the cowards they used to be. Zeng Xu and Mo Yixing turned their attention to Li Su. In just a few days of training, Li Su had advanced to the Spirit King level and become their backbone.

Listening to Gray's report in his mind, Li Su knew they wouldn't last until the trap was reached, but... if the Void Cat was there, did that mean that witch Li Yang was also there?

He immediately grabbed Shan Hong's hand, "Commander Shan, you take them and go first, the three of us will cover the rear!"

"What? Impossible!" Shan Hong refused without even thinking, but how could the three young masters listen to him? Zeng Xu shoved the ethereal cat into his arms. "Let's go!"

"Ouch!"

Grey roared loudly, blocking the evil man's path with its massive body. It raised its head and exchanged a glance with Li Su, who was rushing over, before joining the battle!

"Oh my god, hurry and help!" Shan Hong turned back and saw this scene and felt like the sky had fallen.

Suddenly, a pink light streaked across the sky!

"Xiao Jin, go help!"
