After hearing what the Monster King said, I was completely stunned. However, I was very clear that his words weren't random.

Could it be that Aunt Caiyun's last desperate move did not kill the Demon King? To be more accurate, she has killed the Demon King many times, but the Demon King was too special. Even if it had over ten thousand souls, it still had over ten thousand lives.

This way, he would be in big trouble. Even if he had the time to kill a Demon King with tens of thousands of lives, he wouldn't have to expend so much energy. Furthermore, I am unable to use the power of the Art of Soul Awakening for a long period of time.

As for Qing Qing, it is impossible for her to remain in the demonic state for a long time. Of course, I can't let her be like this. Otherwise, if Qing Qing is controlled by the demonic power, she will become a demon from now on.

If this goes on, he won't be able to do anything. In the end, not only will he not be able to kill the Monster King, but he will also be trapped here.

When he thought of being trapped, at the same time, he remembered that black clothed man. He had always thought that the defense of the Demon King was too strong, and did not know that the reason why he could not die after fighting the Demon King for ten years was because the Demon King possessed over ten thousand lives.

"Little brats, with just your strength alone, you still can't kill my Monster King. What do you think? Can you calm down and listen to what this Monster King has to say?"

I beckoned to Qingqing to come to my side. As long as I could see that Qingqing was fine, I wouldn't be so anxious. The Monster King didn't stop her and allowed her to walk to my side.

Qing Qing, who had come to my side, withdrew her demonic nature and returned to her original state. She seemed extremely exhausted. Half of her body was leaning against my body. I reached out my hand to pat her shoulder to comfort her. I wanted her to know that as long as I was by her side, I would do my best to protect her.

"What do you want to say? Hurry up and say it."

The Monster King paused for a moment and then said something that surprised me, "This Demon King has been hibernating at Thunderclap Mountain for many years. After such a long time of cultivation, I have already reached my peak condition.

Although I didn't understand what the Monster King wanted us to help it with, I knew that it definitely wasn't a good thing. "Why should we help you?"

The Monster King cackled, "Whether it's a monster or a cultivator, whoever doesn't want to become a top character, this Demon King will help you become one that stands at the top."

Qing Qing and I won't be able to kill the Demon King, and the Demon King won't be able to easily defeat us. Therefore, even if we do fight, we won't be able to determine the victor in a short period of time. Since I had nothing better to do, I asked curiously, "Do you have the ability to do so?"

"That's right. You, that lass, and this Demon King, if we trace our origins back to the same origin, then the strength in our bodies is complementary. As long as you listen to this Demon King's arrangements, I guarantee that you can sweep the entire world within a year."

"Oh, that's true. What do you want to do?"

The Monster King looked at Qing Qing and me and said word by word, "Give me your yin energy and the evil energy in your body. This way …"

Before the Monster King could finish his sentence, I interrupted it, "Then you'll be invincible. At that time, you can go wherever you want to go. Kill whoever you want to. Fuck, do you treat us two as fools?"

"The two of you can be my substitute protectors. Don't worry, you can take anything that you want from me."

"Really?"

The Monster King replied without hesitation, "I will not go back on my words."

I smiled. "That's fine. You can hand over 999 lives now and only leave your original body's life. This way, I'll believe your words and give you the power in my body."

"You … This Demon King has said so much, yet you're actually playing with this Demon King. Fine, since you don't want to cooperate, this Demon King will personally come to get it. "

"Then come."

I pressed Qingqing, who was in my embrace, against a stone wall to the side and circulated the power of the Art of Soul Awakening to stand fearlessly in front of the Monster King.

I said it so loudly, but in reality, I clearly knew in my heart that I couldn't kill the Monster King. I just didn't want to get entangled with it for too long. I saw that the Monster King's thoughts were the same as mine, but he was just saying that he didn't make a move.

In an instant, the atmosphere had reached a deadlock. Neither side had the confidence to defeat the other, but they had no choice but to draw their swords.

At this moment, Qing Qing suddenly stood up and walked between me and the Monster King. She said to the two of us, "Stop fighting. Even if you fight for three days and three nights, you won't be able to determine the victor. Why don't you listen to what I have to say?"

Demon King and I looked at Qing Qing, not knowing what she wanted to say. However, after pausing for a moment, we both nodded our heads.

"Since there is no clear victor, there is no point in continuing to fight. It would be better to just give up. Little Tian and I will leave this place, while you, Demon King, can continue to cultivate in my lair. Is that alright?"

The light from the Monster King flickered as it made a difficult decision. After a while, it said, "Alright, you two little fellows will be the first ones to leave this place alive."

Although the Monster King agreed to stop the battle, I was unwilling. However, with a second thought, there was no point in continuing to pester him. I nodded, "Since Qingqing has said so, I won't continue either."

Qing Qing held my hand as we walked out of the cave. I shouted at the Monster King, "Let's go."

"Bye!"

Actually, I don't feel good about this. I have yet to avenge Aunt Caiyun, I have yet to find Dao leader Yuji's soul, and I just left like this. How can I pay attention to Yu Zhen and explain myself to Aunt Caiyun?

Of course, there was another important reason. The purpose of this trip to Thunderclap Mountain was to find the Tranquil Heart Grass to expel the devilish essence from Qing Qing's body. If they couldn't even find this, then wouldn't their trip have been in vain?

After thinking about this, I suddenly stopped and said in a low voice to Qing Qing, "Wait a moment. I still have something I need to ask the Monster King."

"Kid, didn't you leave? Why are you back? Have you thought through what this Demon King said?"

I laughed coldly and directly said, "We have come here to find a Tranquil Heart Grass. I wonder if the Monster King knows where it is?"

"Tranquil Heart Grass?" The Spirit Demon King paused, his tone filled with doubt, and said: "Tranquil Heart Grass is for cleansing the heart, who is going to use it on that little girl? I, the Demon King, want to remind all of you, whether it is the devilish nature of the girl or the extremely yin and evil energy in your body, they all possess abilities that defy the heavens, so do not easily abandon them. "

"You know that right?" I said irritably.

The Monster King did not waste any more words and said, "I know, but I won't tell you."
