Chapter 643 Sword Formation
Chapter 643 Sword Formation
The Demon Emperor smiled slightly: "That person's life will be left to the Demon Queen to decide after the wedding. As for the betrothal gifts, Fairy Jiang, it would be better to be realistic and not force anyone."
Jiang Li's eyes widened: "Didn't Your Majesty say that my wicked empress has everything she wants?"
Staring into those clear, flawless eyes, the Demon Emperor was momentarily dazed, and involuntarily said, "Whatever the fairy desires, I will surely find it for you in the future..."
He was stunned for a moment, and immediately became vigilant. The immaculate spirit body had such destructive power against the demon race!
Looking into her big, watery eyes, he couldn't bring himself to refuse. If he were a demon with low cultivation, he might have even ripped his heart out for her!
His eyes were sinister as he secretly resolved to cripple her cultivation after the wedding and imprison her in the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, never to be released!
The Demon Emperor remained outwardly polite, smiling like a gentle spring breeze: "Fairy Jiang must be tired after her long journey, so I won't disturb you any longer. Tomorrow I will send a matchmaker to your door, and I will make sure you have a grand and glorious wedding."
Jiang Li waved with a smile: "Goodbye, don't bother seeing me out."
The Demon Emperor's lips curled slightly, and with a flick of his body, he vanished into the thick fog in an instant.
After he left, Jiang Li's face darkened, and with a thought, she returned to the Dragon Palace, where she was immediately pulled into a pair of strong arms and held tightly.
Jiang Li's tense nerves relaxed instantly. She leaned against Xie Chang'an's warm embrace and felt incredibly safe.
"Cough cough..." Taixu coughed loudly from the side.
When Chonghua's old house catches fire, can't we at least consider his feelings?
Jiang Li hurriedly broke free from Xie Chang'an's embrace, her face flushed.
Xie Chang'an glared at Taixu, thinking, "He has no sense of propriety at all! Doesn't he know to stay away at a time like this?"
Taixu chuckled and said, "With a formidable enemy at hand, let's stop talking about love and quickly discuss what to do next."
Xie Chang'an ignored him, looked down at Jiang Li, and asked softly, "Little Tanuki, are you alright?"
Jiang Li said awkwardly, "I'm fine. Taixu is right, let's discuss the next step of the plan first."
"it is good."
The three moved to the study, where Hui Chun Teng diligently served them tea and snacks.
"Xiao Teng, thank you."
Jiang Li took a sip of the warm tea. It had a sweet aftertaste and a refreshing aroma, and she felt completely relaxed.
Hui Chun Teng said admiringly, "That demon emperor looked fierce and menacing, yet the little fairy faced him alone without any fear. If it were me, I'm afraid I would have been scared out of my wits on the spot!"
Jiang Li smiled and said, "I'll take you out to gain more experience in the future. Sooner or later, you'll be even more powerful than him!"
Spring Vine happily replied, "Great! Little Vine will cultivate diligently and protect the little fairy and the young master in the future!"
Hearing her mention "young master," Xie Chang'an was overjoyed and casually took out a wood-type spirit crystal, handing it to the Rejuvenating Vine.
"Little Vine, you've worked hard. This is a wood-type spirit crystal; you should be able to use it."
Hui Chun Teng beamed, "Thank you, True Lord! I wish you and the fairy a long and happy marriage, forever united in heart!"
Jiang Li blushed: "Xiao Teng, please check on my egg. I'll feed him some spiritual liquid in half an hour."
"Alright, Xiao Teng will go right away!"
Spring Vine happily hugged the wood-type spirit crystal and walked away with a clatter.
Taixu sat casually in the chair, leaning back, legs crossed, with an expression that said he couldn't bear to look at him.
Xie Chang'an glared at him irritably, "Sit still!"
He has no manners and is so sloppy. How did he end up with such a sword spirit?
Look at other people's spirit pets, how considerate they are!
Jiang Li covered her mouth and laughed.
Taixu quickly sat up straight and chuckled, "Little fairy, when are we going out?"
He couldn't wait to visit this forbidden area of the demon race!
Xie Chang'an said, "Little fox, there's a celadon porcelain jar in front of the main house, with several red and white koi fish in it. Do you see it?"
Jiang Li looked at him, puzzled: "I saw it."
Is there anything strange about that fish tank?
Xie Chang'an laughed and said, "That is a Sumeru mustard seed bottle."
Jiang Li was taken aback. The Sumeru Mustard Seed Bottle is a magical artifact that can contain all things in heaven and earth. It is said that the largest Sumeru Mustard Seed Bottle can hold a mountain!
Of course, magical treasures of this caliber are incredibly expensive.
I wonder what Xie Chang'an put in this bottle?
"Inside is a sacred lake."
"A lake!"
Jiang Li was speechless with astonishment.
It's still a sacred lake!
Xie Chang'an laughed and said, "It's not very big, a little smaller than the lake in our cave. You can put the Dragon Palace inside."
It would be more appropriate to keep the Dragon Palace in the water. Keeping it in Jiang Li's sea of consciousness all this time is a considerable burden for her.
In this way, he can freely enter and exit the Dragon Palace without having to expend his divine sense to follow Taixu through the void passage.
Jiang Li was thinking about something else, her eyes sparkling: "Are there fish in that lake?"
The fish raised in Linghu Lake must be incredibly delicious! I really want to try them!
Xie Chang'an's smile deepened: "Of course there is."
His little raccoon still loves to eat fish, just like before.
Jiang Li was overjoyed.
She acted immediately, leaving the Dragon Palace on a whim and returning to the main courtyard.
Inside the celadon jar, several koi carp fluttered their tail fins, stirring up the clear water.
Jiang Li looked down and examined it closely. It was an ordinary fish tank, with water so clear that the bottom was visible.
But when she tentatively reached her hand into the tank and tried her best to reach it, she couldn't reach the bottom. She felt that the water was unfathomably deep!
Jiang Li, feeling playful, reached out to grab the koi again.
The strange thing is that those koi fish, which seem so easy to catch, are impossible to get!
Xie Chang'an laughed through the Heart-to-Heart Pact, "Stop playing around, release me quickly."
Jiang Li chuckled, and with a thought, moved the Dragon Palace out of her sea of consciousness and into this "fish tank".
Suddenly, her vision blurred, and Xie Chang'an appeared before her.
"Brother Changan..."
Xie Chang'an made a "shush" gesture, then cast an invisibility spell on himself and Jiang Li before speaking through the Heart-to-Heart Pact: "The mist outside the main courtyard is a spirit-locking maze, which has the effect of suppressing spirits."
"Spirit-suppressing?" Jiang Li was shocked.
She tried circulating her spiritual energy, and sure enough, it was a bit stagnant and not as smooth as before.
"The Demon Emperor intends to turn this place into a forbidden zone, preventing you from using your spiritual power."
Jiang Li was startled: "Then what do we do? How do we break this maze?"
Xie Chang'an smiled: "We can turn the tables on them..."
He flipped his hand, and seven shimmering white sword talismans condensed in his palm.
Jiang Li asked curiously, "Sword talisman? Isn't that what your Sword Sect uses for communication?"
Xie Chang'an said, "This is a sword talisman I carved, containing a wisp of my sword energy. I'll make some more for you later, for self-defense."
Jiang Li beamed: "Great!"
Curious about what Xie Chang'an was going to do, she saw him make a hand seal with his fingertips, and seven sword talismans floated in mid-air.
"Seven Stars Gather Spirit, Form the Array!"
Seven sword talismans shot out to the four sides of the courtyard, and silver array patterns appeared on the ground, intertwining and spreading like a spider web, covering the entire main courtyard.
The array patterns gleamed with a cold light, and faint sword energy spread out.
Once the spiritual energy stabilizes and the sword formation takes shape, the array patterns disappear, and everything returns to normal.
"This is the Seven Star Demon-Slaying Formation."
