My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant - Chapter 913: Act Separately

Jiu You’s words relieved Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu’s suspicions.

Ming Xiu pondered a while, then looked at Jiu You, asking: “How many are there, and how are their cultivation bases?”

“There should be a lot of them. I inadvertently broke into the cave and discovered dozens of mutated beasts, all of which were at Unification Realm.” Jiu You paused, then said: “I saw a cave within a cave at the deepest point, and the aura coming out of it was even stronger.

“At the time, I broke into the cave by accident. None of the mutated beasts in the cave thought that I’d be able to escape, so only a few Unification Realm mutated beasts chased me out. If the mutated beasts in the cave within the cave acted, then I’d definitely have died.” Jiu You felt some heart palpitations of fear when he thought of the auras he felt in the cave within a cave.

Ming Xiu held the teacup lightly with his fingers, thought for a while and continued to ask: “How long has it been since you discovered the existence of the mutated beasts in the cave until now?”

“It’s been nearly ten days.” Jiu You replied.

The Nine-Headed Hydra King’s eyes were somewhat stern, and he said in a serious voice: “I’ve already controlled the outskirts of the forest near the cave in Qi Yan Mountain, but the geographical location of Qi Yan Mountain is quite special, bordering on three demon clans. Among them are the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, and I wonder if they did anything in the past ten days.”

“Since their lair has been discovered, if these mutated beasts are related to the Queen of the Fox Clan, then they will definitely make a move.” Ming Xiu furrowed his brows.

“Jiu You, do you still have an impression of the environment in that cave?” Lou Mu Yan pondered for a moment, then raised her head and asked.

Jiu You thought about it then said: “The outside of the cave is the same as the weather in the mountains, but after stepping into the cave, I found that the inside is very dry and hot. With that temperature, if Sword Masters below Unification Realm enter, they might be burned to death.”

“Qi Yan Mountain is like spring all year around. The green plants on the mountain never wither, and the flowers bloom all year around. I didn’t expect such a cave to exist.” The Nine-Headed Hydra King was puzzled.

Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were deep and dark, then said after a while: “I’m guessing that there should be an underground flame resource under Qi Yan Mountain, but it should’ve been covered by some natural restriction, and the overflowing aura makes the temperature of the mountain just right, finally causing Qi Yan Mountain to be like spring all year round.

“I’ve studied the fire poison extracted from Jiu You’s body, and the fire attribute contained in it is very domineering and pure, which shows that those mutated beasts themselves are of the fire attribute, and they liked hot places. Coupled with the geographical location of Qi Yan Mountain being special, after they discovered this place, they used it as their lair.” She added.

The Nine-Headed Hydra King nodded and said: “Young Miss Lou’s guess is probably the truth. Ten thousand years ago, there were many inexplicable underground fire related injuries in Qi Yan Mountain, so it was gradually listed as one of the dangerous forbidden areas in the Demon Realm.”

He paused and continued: “From this, it can be inferred that these incidents of injuries from underground fires in that are was completely caused by mutated beasts in order for outsiders not to set foot in their territory. It becoming listed as a dangerous forbidden area in the Demon Realm may also be news release d by the aliens.”

“That’s entirely possible.” Ming Xiu narrowed his long and slender eyes and said: “From the information we’ve gathered, those aliens probably entered Guang’ling World ten thousand years ago.”

For ordinary people, ten thousand years was far too long, but for people above Unification Realm, ten thousand years passed by in a hurry, and for Immortals, it was just the blink of an eye.

After all, it took a long time for a cultivator to ascend. A human Sword Master at Unification Realm can live for tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years, and the lifespan of the demons were even longer.

As long as one at Immortal cultivation base didn’t die, their lifespan was even eternal. Sometimes, seclusion would take more than ten thousand years, as simple as a mortal sleeping.

Therefore, if the aliens buried chess pieces in Guang’ling World ten thousand years ago, it still wasn’t that long ago.

Demon Kings like the Golden Roc King, Nine-Headed Hydra King, and the Nine-Tailed Fox King would be easily more than ten thousand years old. Based on Lou Mu Yan’s previous observations, the Queen of the Fox Clan had also lived over ten thousand years.

“Jiu You discovered the existence of the mutated beasts and their lair by accident, which could be regarded as beating the bush and startling the snake. I wonder if the aliens will move their lair.” The Nine-Headed Hydra King said with slight worry.

Ming Xiu chuckled and said: “They won’t. One is that those aliens liked to cultivate in the geothermal environment that Qi Yan Mountain possesses, and second is that the time the aliens have set to capture the continent is only two years. They don’t have much time to move their lair.”

“Then will they take any action? Or attack Jiu You secretly.” The Nine-Headed Hydra King furrowed his brows deeply.

The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan and the Nine-Headed Hydra Clan were already at odds and were even mortal enemies. Now that Jiu You had discovered the secret of the Queen of the Fox Clan’s mutated beast lair, it was entirely possible that she would use the power of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan to put Jiu You in a disadvantage.

“Didn’t some self-recommended physicians activate the fire poison in Jiu You’s body before? I think we can start the investigation from them.” Ming Xiu took a sip of tea and said.

The Nine-Headed Hydra King smiled, “This King almost ignored the two physicians before. Thankfully Ninth Prince reminded.”

Ming Xiu smiled faintly, “Jiu You can stay with us for the time being. If the Queen of the Fox Clan has planned any conspiracy against him, we can also protect his safety.”

“Such is good. I will trouble Jiu You’s safety with you two.” The Nine-Headed Hydra King expressed sincere gratitude with a smile on his face. He thought for a bit and said: “I will immediately contact the other Demon Kings in the Demon Realm secretly.”

The matter of aliens lurking and wanting to begin a great continental war was very important. He had a lot of things to deal with, and he had to contact the other Demon Kings secretly. He was most worried about his son’s safety. Now that he had the protection of Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu, he also sighed in relief.

“Let’s go to Qi Yan Mountain today to take a look. We will trouble Hydra King to secretly contact the other Demon Kings.” Ming Xiu said.

They still needed to go to Qi Yan Mountain to see for themselves what its state was.

If the mutated beasts in Qi Yan Mountain were really the ultimate trump cards of the aliens, then they had to destroy it no matter the cost.

“Not a problem. After I contact them, I will arrange a meeting. If there are any abnormalities and news from Qi Yan Mountain, it can be passed on and let them know. By then, we can unite and destroy the lairs of the mutated beasts cultivated by the aliens.” The Nine-Headed Hydra King’s expression was extremely fierce.

They absolutely must not let the plan of the spy, that was the Queen of the Fox Clan, to succeed, and the King of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan was assisting the evildoers too. When the time came, all the demons would unite, and even if the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan didn’t die, they would shed a layer of skin.

Their Nine-Headed Hydra Clan could take this opportunity to make the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan be unable to turn themselves over forever.

“Alright, we’ll go to Qi Yan Mountain to collect evidence. Once we find that the situation is as we guessed, then we will send news to the Devil Realm, Human Realm, and Sea Realm at the same time.”

Ming Xiu paused, then said: “Such a huge group of mutated beasts is impossible for us alone to wipe them all out. Ultimately, all races in Guang’ling World must cooperate.”

“Yes, then let’s split up to act.” The Nine-Headed Hydra King nodded in agreement.
