Chapter 71 I'm sorry, I lost the pendant you gave me.
Yun Qingyi followed the Su clan all the way to the outskirts of the Yashan demon clan's territory.
As they approached the territory of Ashan, they all stopped at the same time.
"Sir...how about we just drop you off here? If we go any closer, we'll be going inside."
"Sir, we are not strong enough. If we go in with you, we will only be a hindrance. We'd like to go back and wait for you. Is that alright?"
"The house hasn't been repaired yet, sir. We'll go back and fix it and wait for you to come back."
……
The demons closer to Yun Qingyi looked nervous, worried that Yun Qingyi would ask them to accompany her in rescuing people, and they all chimed in with smiles.
Yun Qingyi glanced at them coldly and said indifferently, "I will go back to find you."
Without leaving any trace of his presence, he headed straight for the territory of the Yashan demon race.
Using her agility to evade several patrolling demons, Yun Qingyi's gaze quickly moved across the territory, finally settling on a pillar in the center of the plaza.
She stood there, stunned, unable to believe that the blood-covered doll was Yao Yao.
With trembling steps, Yun Qingyi walked towards the pillar. At this moment, the demon who was about to lash out with his whip stopped what he was doing and looked at Yun Qingyi with confusion.
In an instant, lightning flashed, and the demons fell to the ground, their eyes filled with terror.
"Yao Yao?"
Looking at the girl whose body was covered in wounds, Yun Qingyi didn't know where to start to save her.
"elder sister……"
The girl's weak voice came from her mouth, which was covered in bloodstains.
"Don't speak, don't speak yet, let me put you down first."
Yun Qingyi deftly untied the ropes, gently picked up Yao Yao, and carefully placed her on the ground.
"Who goes there!" After watching for a while, the bear demon finally realized that something was wrong. He waved to the various demon clans in his territory and surrounded Yun Qingyi.
Yun Qingyi ignored the surrounding demons, gently squeezed Yao Yao's small hand, took out a bunch of pills from her storage ring, found one with relatively mild medicinal properties, and gently put it into her mouth, using her spiritual power to help her digest it.
"Sister...don't...waste it..."
"Yaoyao...can't absorb it..."
Seeing that the medicine in Yao Yao's mouth was not flowing into her body, Yun Qingyi panicked. She frantically searched through her storage ring, hoping to find something that could be used.
"Hey, you little girl in the square, who are you?!" The bear demon, seeing that Yun Qingyi didn't answer him for a long time, smashed the wine bottle and said angrily.
Yun Qingyi didn't speak, but set up a barrier and quickly searched through her storage ring with her divine sense.
"Sister...don't look anymore..."
"Yaoyao...is already..."
"Don't speak, Yao Yao. Believe me, I will definitely be able to save you."
"No... Sister... Listen to me... My meridians are all shattered."
"I know... I'm not going to make it..."
"I want to... say one last thing to my sister..."
"No, no! It can definitely be done, you have to believe me, you have to believe me!"
"You know what, Yao Yao? I saw your father and mother. They told me to tell you that they love you very much, so you have to live, okay?"
Yun Qingyi's hands trembled as she tightly clutched a pile of storage rings. She despairingly discovered that none of them could heal the girl in front of her, but she still searched relentlessly.
"Really?" The girl's eyes lit up instantly.
"That's wonderful... Yao Yao loves them too..."
"But... Sister... Yao Yao is so sleepy..."
"I'm sorry... I lost the pendant you gave Yao Yao..."
"I can't... go with my sister... to see the peach blossoms..."
"Yaoyao?" Yun Qingyi stopped searching and looked at the girl who was now lifeless, her voice trembling.
"Yaoyao, don't scare me. I told you I would save you."
"You... wake up, your sister will find it soon."
Yun Qingyi kept talking to herself, but in the end she still couldn't convince reality; the girl died in front of her.
She died right in front of her.
His meridians were shattered, his bones were broken, and he died in front of her, covered in blood.
Her heart felt like it had been shattered; the pain made it hard for her to breathe. Her words sounded like a joke; she couldn't save anyone.
Carefully placing Yao Yao into the storage bracelet, Yun Qingyi waved her hand, removed the barrier, and stared expressionlessly at the demons attacking it.
The moment the barrier was removed, the demons were clearly stunned for a moment, then fiercely brandished their weapons at Yun Qingyi.
Yun Qingyi did not move. In an instant, the surroundings were filled with lightning bolts, and the sky turned completely dark.
Streaks of lightning flashed across the dark clouds, accompanied by thunderclaps that echoed through the sky.
The surrounding demons visibly flinched, retreating timidly to the side, their eyes darting toward their leader.
"Boss, what... what do we do? This girl seems a bit difficult to deal with." The monkey demon looked at Yun Qingyi in the center of the square and hid behind the bear demon in fear.
"What are you afraid of!"
The bear demon was now completely sober, and looking at the changes in air pressure around him, he felt a little scared.
But then he thought about the rules of the Demon City and felt relieved.
"Don't worry, brothers! We're not those cowards from the Su Clan. We're a race protected by the rules of the Demon Capital. That little girl can only scare us!"
Upon hearing this, the demons suddenly realized that they had been so frightened that they had forgotten that they were protected by the rules of the Demon Capital!
Thinking of this, they all straightened their chests and looked at Yun Qingyi with disdain.
She's just a pretentious little brat.
"Ah."
Yun Qingyi glanced indifferently at this territory and waved her hand.
Lightning from the horizon surged into this territory in an instant, and the surrounding lightning elemental orbs transformed into sharp blades, frantically slicing through everything in their path.
In an instant, the territory of the Yashan demon race was filled with violent and rampant lightning elemental spiritual power, which attracted the attention of demons in the distance to stop and watch the magnificent purple light that resembled a feast of lightning.
"All of you, stay here and be buried with her."
Yun Qingyi listened expressionlessly to the wails around her, watching the building in front of her turn into ruins bit by bit.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the land before them was so clean that there was no trace of life that had ever existed.
Yun Qingyi glanced down at the storage bracelet. She had killed everyone here, but she didn't feel happy. Instead, her heart grew heavier and heavier.
Taking a deep breath, Yun Qingyi turned and flew towards the territory of the Su clan on her sword.
Upon returning to the territory of the Su clan, Yun Qingyi was greeted by Elder Sheep Demon and his clansmen kneeling on the ground.
"What are you doing?" Yun Qingyi asked, her face expressionless as she looked at the group of demons.
Upon hearing the voice, the sheep demon elder trembled and kowtowed to Yun Qingyi, saying, "I'm sorry, sir, it was I who handed Yao Yao over."
After saying that, he gritted his teeth and continued, "Take all your anger out on me, but please don't take it out on the rest of the tribe."
"My lord! It was my fault for not stopping the elder from handing over Yao Yao. I am also at fault, and I am willing to take the punishment in the elder's place!"
"My lord, please have mercy! Handing over Yao Yao was a last resort."
……
Everyone spoke one after another, and Yun Qingyi listened to them all until finally there was no sound at all.
"Are you done talking?" Yun Qingyi scoffed lightly. "You guys are surprisingly united at a time like this."
Then he looked at the sheep demon elder and stretched out his hand: "These are Yao Yao's parents' things."
Elder Goat Demon couldn't understand why people would still need those things after someone had died, but he still deftly took out a storage ring.
Yun Qingyi scanned the area with her divine sense and found that, in addition to some handmade toys, there were also some cultivation resources.
Upon seeing the cultivation resources, Yun Qingyi paused, then asked the Sheep Demon Elder uncertainly, "Did you take the cultivation resources from here for Yao Yao?"
Upon hearing this, the sheep demon elder and the other demons all looked somewhat uneasy.
"Yes...yes." Although reluctant to admit it, the sheep demon elder finally told the truth.
"So the resources you're accusing Yao Yao of wasting were actually given to her by her parents?"
After these words were spoken, everyone around fell silent.
But after a while, a demon couldn't help but speak up: "Anyway, she can't awaken her bloodline inheritance, so what is the point of using so many good things?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sheep demon elder immediately reprimanded the demon man.
But after scolding him, the demon man still muttered in dissatisfaction, "That's just how it is."
Yun Qingyi listened to him finish speaking with a blank expression, her face showing no emotional fluctuation.
After putting Yao Yao's parents' belongings into the storage bracelet, he said to the demons, "I won't do anything to you, but there's something I want to tell you."
"The chosen demon you have been hoping for and waiting for is Yao Yao."
Upon hearing this, the demons froze on the spot, their faces filled with disbelief. The elder of the sheep demon clan was the most shocked. He thought of what Yao Yao's parents had said back then, and it seemed that everything was traceable.
But he still refused to believe it, and stumbled to Yun Qingyi, his voice trembling as he said, "My lady, you, you're joking, aren't you?"
"Ah."
Yun Qingyi lowered her eyes, a hint of sarcasm playing on her lips: "Do you think I need to joke around?"
"I won't do anything to you; your initial worries were completely unnecessary."
Yun Qingyi looked at the demon race with an icy expression: "Rather than killing you directly, I would prefer to see you completely become puppets of other demon races."
"Never, never again will any other demon rescue your Su clan from this calamity."
After saying this, Yun Qingyi turned and left.
