Chapter 13 Good Results and Bad Results 12
Jun Si, making a big fuss, slammed his hand on the table and said mysteriously, "Guess what I found this time?"
"You'll never guess."
Shi Qinian smiled gently, "Stop keeping me in suspense, just tell me already."
"Ok."
He paused, then continued, "Today I scouted the area near the Demon Palace and discovered that at this critical juncture, the number of guards nearby has not increased, but rather decreased significantly."
"I think it's a scam."
Ye Liangqing was surprised, "Did they deliberately reveal a flaw?"
“I think so,” Jun Si nodded.
Shi Qinian also said, "The demons must have anticipated that we would come to rescue the Goddess Nayue, so they wanted to trap us like turtles in a jar."
"Moreover, I also found the Binding God Net nearby."
"A net that binds gods?!"
"If I remember correctly, only the eldest prince of the Demon Realm can forge the God-Binding Net, and it has a miraculous effect on binding the gods."
Ye Liangqing turned her head and looked at Shi Qinian.
"If that's the case, then we're even more certain this is a conspiracy." Jun Si crossed his arms, his face etched with worry.
Shi Qinian frowned as well. He turned to Zhao Zhao and asked, "Has Divine Child Zhao discovered anything?"
Zhao Zhao didn't say anything, but simply threw a blue spirit stone onto the glass table.
"Gathering Demon Stone".
Shi Qinian recognized it at a glance. He looked at Zhao Zhao and asked, "This is something from the Demon Clan. How did you obtain it?"
Zhao Zhao said expressionlessly, "Today, in a remote place, we discovered a demon-gathering array."
"A Demon Gathering Array?! This is a Heaven-Rank Array. Once activated, it can summon Heaven-Rank Demonic Beasts. This thing is incredibly powerful."
Jun Si's eyes widened, startled for a moment by the appearance of the Demon Gathering Stone.
"Don't panic."
Zhao Zhao said calmly, "I've already destroyed it."
The three people: ?!
Shi Qinian, "Hmm?"
“I found the core of the Demon Gathering Array and took away the most important Demon Gathering Stone at the core.”
"Without the Demon Gathering Stone, the Demon Gathering Array no longer poses any threat to us."
Upon hearing this, the expressions on their faces immediately relaxed.
Jun Si clapped his hands and laughed, "Hahahaha, as expected of the Divine Child Zhao."
"It's really great."
Zhao Zhao glanced at him indifferently and continued, "However, if a demon were to inspect the Demon Gathering Array, it would be quite easy to discover the missing Demon Gathering Stone. To avoid alerting the enemy, we should make plans as soon as possible."
Shi Qinian nodded, indicating that this made sense. "In that case, this operation will likely not be easy."
"really."
Ye Liangqing added, "Moreover, as far as I know, the Demon Gathering Array is a specialty of the Third Prince of the Demon Realm."
"It seems that those demons have joined forces to deal with us," Jun Si said thoughtfully.
"Which ones?" Zhao Zhao asked.
Shi Qinian looked up and met his slightly bewildered eyes. He smiled slightly and said, "They are several princes and princesses from the Demon Realm."
“Their magical powers are all extremely strong. If they join forces to obstruct us this time, the chances of successfully rescuing Nayue are very low,” he explained patiently.
At this point, the atmosphere fell silent for a moment. Seeing this, Zhao Zhao spoke up again, "If you can't beat me, run away. I remember the route around here. I'll draw it out later, and you can memorize it carefully."
Shi Qinian also said, "I visited the Demon Palace a few years ago and remember its general layout, so I'll draw it out as well."
Jun Si and Ye Liangqing didn't say anything, they just watched the two of them silently, their expressions somber as to what they were thinking.
Just as Zhao Zhao and Shi Qinian finished drawing the route, the song and dance performance downstairs began.
Zhao Zhao slammed the diagram on the table, her eyes, now crimson, fixed on them without blinking. "Remember this carefully."
Fifteen minutes later, seeing that the others had finished reading, and fearing it might arouse suspicion, Shi Qinian opened the tightly closed window.
Jun Si glanced outside curiously, but was immediately irritated by the smell and quickly turned his head back, his face turning bright red.
Ye Liangqing asked in confusion, "What did you see?"
Jun Si blushed deeply, but still couldn't bring himself to say a word.
Seeing this, Ye Liangqing also turned her head to look down, and saw a group of witches dressed in revealing clothes, boldly dancing a hot dance on the huge stage downstairs.
Although they were both women, Ye Liangqing felt too embarrassed to look again.
The two blushed, and Shi Qinqing chuckled, immediately earning a glare from Ye Liangqing.
He shook his head helplessly, then caught a glimpse of Zhao Zhao turning his head out of the corner of his eye. Seeing this, he moved closer to Zhao Zhao, gently covered his eyes with his palm, and said with a smile, "Don't look at what you shouldn't see."
Zhao Zhao paused, then said calmly, "I saw that man in black robes again."
Shi Qinian's smile faded. "Why is he here?"
"I don't know, and he also noticed me."
"Hmm." Shi Qinian nodded thoughtfully.
Jun Si and the other man looked bewildered and asked, "What black-robed man?"
"Knock knock."
Before Shi Qinian could reply, there was a knock on the door.
