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

Chapter 66 Discovering Clues—Deep in the Silent Forest

Li Yang was in a great mood after doing a good deed. As she jumped around, the bell on her head jingled crisply. Rou Sheng saw this and her gentleness naturally overflowed.

"Madam, how should I address you?"

The lady clenched her fist. "Please let me be your matchmaker."

"Okay, matchmaker."

As sunset approached, Li Yang, who was almost back in the courtyard, suddenly stopped. "Is Mother going to have dinner with Father today?"

"Aren't you coming along?" Rou Sheng looked at her with a smile, her eyes conveying a sense of 'why don't you give it a try?'

Li Yang nodded eagerly, "Oh, yes, yes."

Her smiling but ruthless mother has spoken; what can she do...?

She could only tell the little golden snake to stick close to those people, as she would arrive soon.

After having dinner with the two elders, Li Yang, still hiccuping, headed towards the spot the little golden snake had given her.

Of course, she didn't forget to remove the silver bell that might reveal her location.

Just as the palace servants ahead were about to lock the palace gates, Li Yang mustered all his strength and sprinted towards the palace gates at the speed of a hundred-meter dash.

"call out!"

The palace servant felt some sand and dust getting into his eyes. He forced his eyes open and saw the pink dress that Li Yang was wearing today. He shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Princess, you're going out so late at night..."

"Go to hell, you're seeing things!" A shout interrupted him, and a pink afterimage rushed over quickly.

The palace servant felt as if the wind had slapped him hard across the face. He muttered, somewhat aggrieved, "It was clearly the princess's voice..."

The night wind stung her face, and Li Yang felt as if her nose was about to become a prosthetic limb. Fortunately, the last place those people disappeared was a secluded forest not far from the palace.

It's that familiar old spot.

Li Yang discovered that people from Fengyang Kingdom usually did shady things in Jilin.

She chuckled, chuckled...

From the moment she learned that she was the Demon King, she discovered that she had an obsessive sense of territory towards the Silent Forest.

With her face almost blown apart by the wind, Li Yang finally arrived at the spot the little golden snake had given her, covered in sand and dust.

This was a huge tree, its branches thicker than her. The little golden snake was coiled at the top of a branch, and only swam back slowly when it saw her. Li Yang looked ahead, and a dark, gaping hole seemed to be beckoning to her.

The combination of three bugs—late at night, dense forest, and a dangerous, unknown cave—is overwhelming! She's really going all out with this Chinese horror game.

Li Yang comforted herself in her heart and reached out to catch the little golden snake that was about to be returned.

"Xiao Jin, tell me about the current situation."

“Master, I saw those people enter this cave and never come out again. Also, while I was waiting for you, several other demonic beasts entered this cave.”

Li Yang glanced around at the surroundings. The cave was not perpendicular to the ground, but hidden a little above the ground, like a stone cave specially opened halfway up the mountain. The naturally hanging branches could just block the entrance of the cave. If you didn't look up specifically, no one would find that there was a cave here.

It seems that the demons that Feitian and the others mentioned going missing these past few days may have entered this cave.

"Little Jin, can you tell what level of cultivation those demons who went in are?"

Xiao Jin raised its head. "Master, most of them are newly transformed demons, their cultivation level should be between Core Formation and Transformation. If a powerful demon like the White Bird had passed by, it would have discovered me long ago."

Li Yang nodded to herself, her mind now in turmoil about whether or not to go in.

To be honest, she was a little unsure, because she knew what she would face if she went in. The unknown was frightening, but knowing only half of it made her hesitate even more.

The dew was heavy tonight, quickly wetting the ends of her hair. The thick fog and moisture carried the earthy smell of the forest, which cleared Li Yang's mind considerably.

She looked at the deep opening of the cave, gritted her teeth, and peered forward.

Forget it, I'm itching to look, I might as well just die a quick death!

Li Yang jumped onto the stone wall and, using her demonic power as cover, silently slipped inside.

As expected, it was completely dark inside. Li Yang stared wide-eyed, but couldn't see anything at all.

She suddenly misses something called an infrared detector...

The little golden snake couldn't help but peek out from her sleeve. "Master, you can see it with your demonic eyes."

Demonic Eyes?

Oh yes, she's a clever little fox. Little foxes hunt at night, how could she forget that!

Li Yang blinked, her eyes misting over. She coughed silently in her mind, "You can't tell anyone about what just happened. You don't know anything about it either."

The little golden snake shrank back inside. "Master, you should go in quickly. It would be terrible if we were discovered after standing at the entrance for so long."

Li Yang thought it made sense, so she quickly dodged to the side and groped her way in along the wall.

With the Demon Eye, night vision is no longer a problem.

She then realized that there was indeed nothing in front of her. There should be a long passageway extending from this opening. She had just entered and would have to pass through the passageway to see what it looked like inside.

The passageway ahead was as winding and twisting as a rat hole. If it weren't for her superb sense of direction, Li Yang felt she would definitely get lost in this godforsaken place.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Li Yang finally saw a huge arched opening in front of her.

It seems this must be the main hall.

Li Yang moved slowly along the wall when she suddenly heard the squeaking sound of boots walking on the mud from afar. She broke out in a cold sweat and looked around for a way to hide.

The cave was a maze of interconnected passages, with nowhere to hide. In desperation, Li Yang revealed his claws and leaped three meters into the air, grabbing the ceiling.

Her movements at this moment resembled those of Spider-Man from a foreign movie, but unlike Spider-Man, she wasn't walking on flat ground on the ceiling. Her claws were already thin and short, and now she had to support her entire body. Li Yang felt like her fingernails were about to flip up.

Now she misses her long, pointed nails terribly...

Two humanoid figures draped in black cloaks approached from not far away. Li Yang couldn't see their faces clearly from the ceiling, but judging from their aura, they were definitely among the stronger members of the evil race.

The two men carrying a skull walked into the main hall she was about to enter.

Once the noise subsided, Li Yang finally felt a sense of relief and cautiously climbed down from the ceiling, crouching low as she approached the main hall.

There was another screen inside the main hall, so she had to walk around it to see what was happening inside.

Slipping through the screen on the left, Li Yang saw a dense mass of 'people' standing inside, because it was impossible to tell whether they were human or demon.

Perhaps a more accurate term would be zombies.

Li Yang glanced at the number and found there were over a hundred people!

"Squeak!"

Li Yang stepped back but suddenly bumped into another screen. Although she quickly straightened the screen, she could still sense that the atmosphere in the hall was beginning to change...

Then came the sound of rustling footsteps approaching.

They started looking for her!

Li Yang suddenly felt a chill creep up from the soles of her feet!

What should we do now?
