Chapter 312 Ferocious Beast? !
"Second brother, don't overthink it. Because you disappeared, I was the only son left by our father, so he passed the throne of the Demon Emperor to me."
Ming Cang explained anxiously, fearing that Ming Yan would be angry.
After Ming Yan came to his senses, he looked at his royal brother's cautious appearance and was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Brother, what are you worried about? You don't think I want to be the Demon Emperor, do you?"
Ming Cang looked embarrassed, he really thought so.
Seeing this, Ming Yan still had something to understand. He rolled his eyes speechlessly, the disgust on his face clearly visible. "Brother Huang, please stop messing around. Being the Demon Emperor is so tiring, I don't want it!"
"Isn't it good to be an idle prince? It's easy and free, and I can have fun however I want."
After saying that, Ming Yan lay on the table as if he had no bones, turning the cup in his hand around on the table, seeming to be having a lot of fun.
Ming Cang looked at him uncertainly for a long time, and only felt relieved when he saw that he really didn't seem to have any interest in the position of Demon Emperor.
"Alright, my royal brother, just relax! I don't want to be some kind of Demon King and make myself uncomfortable!" Ming Yan curled his lips and said, "Instead of worrying about this, why don't you tell us about the situation in the forbidden area!"
"Okay." Ming Cang nodded, "I'll just talk to you briefly."
Originally, the situation in the demon clan's forbidden land could not be told to outsiders, but since his younger brother had said so, Ming Cang, who doted on his younger brother madly, naturally would not hide it anymore.
"The reason it's a forbidden area for the demons is because it's the burial place of the first Demon Lord." Ming Cang looked at Fu Sheng and said, "The black tree you mentioned is the body of the first Demon Lord, and those red flowers are demon spirit flowers that grew from the nourishment of his flesh and blood."
Demon Flower?!
Su Qingning's eyes trembled slightly. Wasn't that the missing ingredient for the purification potion? It seemed that, no matter what the reason, she had entered this forbidden demon land.
"Then why are you asking how we managed to get out of the forbidden area safely, Your Highness... uh... Demon Emperor?" Fu Sheng asked, "Is there any danger in the forbidden area?"
Ming Cang glanced at Fu Sheng with admiration, then nodded and said, "Indeed, the forbidden area is very dangerous. What you may not know is that the first Demon Lord once raised a ferocious beast. After his death, the beast remained in the forbidden area, guarding the tree that was transformed from the first Demon Lord's body for years."
A vicious beast? !
Everyone was shocked, and Fu Sheng finally understood why Ming Cang said that. Their elves were a gentle, peace-loving race. They were not good at fighting. If they really encountered a ferocious beast, even if Fu Sheng was the Elf King, he might not be able to win, not to mention that the ferocious beast was raised by the first Demon Lord, and it might have lived for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years.
A ferocious beast like this ancestor-level beast, let alone fighting it, would probably swallow you whole as soon as you meet it.
At this moment, Fu Sheng couldn't help but sigh that they were so lucky that they didn't encounter the ferocious beast; but now, he couldn't help but start to worry. If the teleportation array was really in the forbidden area, then if they wanted to return to the Shenzhou Continent, they would have to go in, and once they went in, they would most likely encounter the ferocious beast!
What should I do? Fu Sheng was very worried.
On the other hand, Su Qingning didn't think so much. In her opinion, no matter how dangerous the road ahead was, she had to enter the forbidden area of the demon clan; so, instead of worrying about it here, it would be better to learn more about the ferocious beast.
"I wonder what that ferocious beast is?" Su Qingning asked curiously.
"It's chaos!" Ming Cang said in a deep voice.
Chaos? One of the four ancient beasts!
Everyone was horrified. This was a dangerous enemy. However, Su Qingning was not that worried. According to ancient records, Taotie, one of the four ferocious beasts, was as famous as Hun Dun. It was unknown who would be stronger between the two when Ya Zi met Hun Dun.
After learning that the beast in the Demon Clan's forbidden land was Chaos, Fu Sheng's brows were filled with worry. He looked at Su Qingning and Mo Lintian and asked anxiously, "Miss Su, Mr. Mo, what should we do?"
"Don't worry, it's okay." Su Qingning comforted Fu Sheng, then looked at Ming Cang with a firm expression and said, "Please ask the Demon Emperor to take us to the forbidden area."
Hearing this, Ming Cang's brows furrowed. "Master Su, according to the rules of our demon clan, outsiders are not allowed to enter the forbidden area. However, considering that you saved my brother, I can let you in. But after that, I will no longer care whether you live or die, or whether you can find the teleportation array to the Shenzhou Continent."
"Okay." Su Qingning nodded, "The Demon Emperor just needs to take us to the forbidden area."
Seeing that Su Qingning had made up her mind, Ming Cang stopped trying to persuade her. He nodded and said, "It's getting late now. You should get some rest first! Tomorrow, I will take you to the forbidden area."
"Thank you." Su Qingning thanked gratefully.
Ming Cang said indifferently, "No need, I'm just repaying your kindness."
Su Qingning nodded and stopped talking.
Afterwards, Ming Cang chatted with Ming Yan for a few more words and then got up and left.
"Well... don't mind it. My royal brother just has a cold face by nature. Actually, he is quite soft-hearted." Ming Yan scratched his head, and spoke well of Ming Cang with embarrassment and a bit of anxiety.
Su Qingning smiled and said, "I know."
Speaking of which, the relationship between brothers Ming Cang and Ming Yan is very similar to the relationship between Mo Linyuan and Mo Lintian. Both brothers dote on their younger brothers unconditionally.
Seeing that Su Qingning was not angry at Ming Cang's cold face, Ming Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up and said, "Master Su, His Royal Highness Prince Lin, Elf King, it's getting late. I'll have someone arrange a room for you to rest!"
Su Qingning nodded, "Thank you."
Ming Yan smiled and waved his hand, then called a maid and asked her to take Su Qingning and others downstairs to rest.
After a good night's sleep, Ming Cang came to Ming Yan's palace early in the morning as agreed.
After Su Qingning and the others had breakfast, they followed Ming Cang to the forbidden area of the demon clan. The Elf King, who had been worried yesterday, was quiet today, and there was no sign of anything unusual on his face.
This was all because Su Qingning gave him a reassurance last night.
Su Qingning promised to protect the safety of Fu Sheng and the other two. After Fu Sheng calmed down, he remembered one thing, that is, Su Qingning and Mo Lintian were both summoners.
One of them contracted with the ancient mythical beasts Suzaku and Nine-tailed Fox, and the other contracted with the ancient ferocious beast Yazi.
Even though Chaos is one of the four ancient ferocious beasts, three against one, they can't lose, right?
After figuring it out, Fu Sheng put his heart back in his stomach. He believed that with Su Qingning and Mo Lintian around, they would be able to return to Shenzhou Continent safely.
