Chapter 31: A Cry for Help

The Demon Lord sneered:

"The erosion of the Fallen Holy Grail is getting stronger and stronger, and negative emotions are rising accordingly. I just chose lust as the outlet with the least cost. It's better than slaughtering mortals.

"Although I don't care about their life or death, it's not easy to accumulate merit points. Heh, in my current state, even if you get pregnant, it will be an evil spawn. We might as well strangle it after it's born."

Teng'er's mother gasped and cursed, "You inhuman thing."

The bed and body seemed to become musical instruments, interweaving into a symphony that made the blood boil amidst profuse sweating.

Zhang Yuanqing shook his head. The Demon Lord at this time node should not have been promoted to Dominator yet, right? His temperament has already degenerated into that of an evil profession.

He chose lust as the least costly among many negative emotions? Seeing it this way, the Demon Lord's later style of grabbing any female dog he passed by seems to be a deliberate choice of his own.

At least there is still some conscience left.

Lust is indeed the least costly and least harmful, better than large-scale destruction and killing.

"Fast forward!" Zhang Yuanqing urged.

The Cat King speaker obediently fast-forwarded the audio. An hour of bed scenes ended in ten minutes.

There was no gain from this audio.

The Cat King speaker proactively entered the next segment. Zhang Yuanqing listened for a moment and, seeing that there was still no desired information, immediately said:

"I want information about Ling Jun's mother."

Although the Cat King speaker is of Extraordinary grade, it possesses self-awareness, and its spirituality is even higher than the rule-type item Red Dancing Shoes.

Teng'er's mother's moans paused, followed by a "sizzle" of current. Shortly after, a new segment of audio began.

Only to hear the Demon Lord say:

"As expected, older women are more unforgettable. Aunt, dating you is the thing I look forward to most every month."

The woman sneered, "You're not one to sweet-talk. Saying nice things means you're up to no good."

Although the tone was not good, the voice was soft and weak, obviously having just been severely whipped.

The Demon Lord chuckled, "Even if I don't say sweet words, wouldn't you obediently lie on the bed and let me play with you? By the way, do you remember your sister who died young? She said she discovered a huge secret. Heh, if she didn't want you to know, she wouldn't have told you at all."

The woman was silent for a few seconds, her tone no longer charming and lazy, and said, "I really don't know. She didn't give any hints either."

The Demon Lord said, "Maybe the hint was given to you long ago, but you didn't notice it. Recall all the information about her, especially after making that call."

The woman was silent again, not opening her mouth for a full two minutes. The loudspeaker was silent, with only light breathing.

"I, I seem to have guessed a little..." the woman said with an uncertain tone.

"After that call, my sister later told me that what happened that day was a joke. She talked to me a lot about our seemingly gentle but extremely utilitarian father, our indifferent Buddhist elder brother, and the primitive forest where we lived when we were young. She also mentioned our planting competition when we were young. Our family held a 'cultivation' and 'raising' competition every year. The same plants and animals were raised using different methods, and the results were completely different.

"I always lost to my sister every year. The spiritual plants and spiritual beasts she raised were stronger than mine. I always suspected that my father was biased and secretly gave her special treatment. I wanted to know her cultivation method, but my sister just wouldn't tell me.

"But that day, she took the initiative to tell me the cultivation method."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuanqing's spirit lifted. Now that he had the seed and knew the whereabouts of the cultivation method, the secret of that year was right in front of him.

The Demon Lord frowned, "Cultivation method? What does this have to do with the secret she discovered?"

The woman said, "I don't know either."

The Demon Lord asked, "What is the cultivation method?"

"It's useless to tell you. Only Wood Demons can understand and control it." The woman was obviously unwilling to say.

The Demon Lord snorted coldly. Shortly after, the "creaking" sound of the bed being pressured rang rhythmically, followed by the woman's melodious moans.

Zhang Yuanqing didn't want to listen to the bed scenes anymore and ordered, "I want to hear the cultivation method."

The Cat King speaker stopped the audio and remained silent for a long time.

Does this mean that Teng'er's mother never told the Demon Lord, so it's not in the Cat King speaker? Zhang Yuanqing was a little disappointed. It seemed that he had to meet this legendary "aunt."

"I'll unravel this secret before going to the dungeon."

Zhang Yuanqing picked up his phone in a "concealed" state. Just as he was about to contact Teng'er, he found that the phone was also concealed and had no signal.

But he didn't dare to lift the Night Tour, because if he lost the protection of concealment, he might be discovered by the Lord of Taiyin.

After thinking for a few seconds, he came up with a compromise. He opened a book, picked up a pen, and wrote furiously, "Contact Miao Teng'er. I want to see her mother. The time is tomorrow morning. Miao Teng'er's contact information: 189..."

Tomorrow morning, the Eight Mirror's cooldown time will be over.

He tore off the paper, summoned Little Doubi, and touched his sparse lanugo:

"Go find Mom."

Little Doubi, with a light piece of paper on his head, quickly slid his limbs and "crashed" through the wall to leave.

I hope this compromise can hide it from the Star Gazing technique. Alas, although I have become a Dominator, I have not majored in Taiyin. This kind of thing that requires time to accumulate has no shortcut at all. Headache... Zhang Yuanqing muttered in his heart.

The Chunyang Sect's *Taiyin Refining Spirit Chapter* counts as half a major in the Taiyin method. Why half? Because it cannot be done quickly. Ancient cultivators

All the cultivation methods emphasize a step-by-step approach.

This is determined by the environment.

Only the Taiyi Sect's Taiyin method can be "quickened," but this quickening is also relative. Ordinary Night Roamers, starting to major in Taiyin from the Extraordinary stage, can enter the hall in five years.

With Zhang Yuanqing's current level, looking down from a high position, he can probably enter the hall in a few months. If there is also the amplification of the Companion Spirit Moon, one month is enough.

As his thoughts turned, Little Doubi climbed back with the note on his head.

Zhang Yuanqing picked up the note and saw:

"No problem."

Done! Zhang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief, dispelled the matter of "seed" from his mind, and then exited the Night Tour.

"Snap!"

He snapped his fingers and disappeared into the bedroom as starlight.

Three minutes later, Zhang Yuanqing, stepping on the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, landed in front of Fu Qingyang's large villa under the cover of illusion.

--With the Craftsman Ring improved by Lian Sanyue, the "sleepiness" of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon has been significantly reduced, and short-distance flights will no longer appear to be dropping the ball.

Zhang Yuanqing put away the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon and went straight into the study to see Fu Qingyang.

Qian Gongzi, sitting behind the wide desk, opened the drawer and took out a stack of printed materials:

"All the un-conquered A-level and above dungeons, as well as the dungeons that can be teamed up, are here. Take a look first."

Zhang Yuanqing stepped forward to take it, lifted his butt, and sat unceremoniously on Qian Gongzi's desk, starting to read the materials.

and the army is approaching the capital of the Southern Dynasty.

Fighting Alone

Number: Difficulty Level: S

Type: Single Player (Death Type)

Main Task: Recover the tribute from the imperial court.

No. 17 Spirit Realm Introduction: The army of the Western Regions disguised as bandits and looted the Tang Dynasty's mission. The chief envoy relied on his superb martial arts to break through the encirclement. However, the accompanying treasures were robbed, and the Tang Dynasty lost face. He will surely die if he returns to the country. The troops under his command have been lost. Alone, it is difficult to retrieve the tribute, and it is difficult to advance or retreat, difficult, difficult, difficult.

Zhang Yuanqing carefully read the dungeon information and found that there are only seven A-level and S-level dungeons that have not been conquered, and only two dungeons that can bring in Extraordinary and Saint level people.

One is A-level, and the other is S-level.

"The number is a bit small." He "tsk"ed.

Fu Qingyang said lightly, "It's a special case to enter the same dungeon at different stages."

Special cases mean rarity. It's no problem to earn a wave of benefits, but don't even think about getting windfall profits by relying on this "bug". Moreover, it's still debatable whether it's a benefit.

First of all, the difficulty of such dungeons is very high, starting from A-level. Secondly, the tasks for Extraordinary and Saint level people will be much easier, and the rewards they get cannot be A-level rewards from Dominator-level dungeons, but the risks they bear are very high. After all, the upper limit of the dungeon's difficulty reaches the Dominator level.

The Saint level people who returned from the dead want to follow Yuanshi into the dungeon because they are looking at the ability of their Dominator group to conquer the dungeon, which is equivalent to guaranteeing an A-level or S-level dungeon.

"Boss, I want to choose the 'Fallen Monarch' dungeon. I'm not confident about the S-level. The A-level is of moderate difficulty and the rewards are good." Zhang Yuanqing chose the more stable A-level dungeon.

Moderate difficulty at A-level Fu Qingyang nodded: "Same as what I thought. By the way, Ling Jun will also occupy a spot in this group dungeon with acquaintances."

Saying that, Qian Gongzi revealed a hint of confusion: "Listening to his tone, he's full of fighting spirit. I don't know what he's encountered recently."

It's probably the wildfire of revenge for his mother burning fiercely in his heart... Zhang Yuanqing thought to himself. It's also expected that even the laziest person will crave power when he knows that his mother may have been killed.

Just don't know if it's a three-minute passion, or a complete change of heart, a prodigal son returning.

Zhang Yuanqing took out his phone, aimed it at the Fallen Monarch dungeon, took a photo, and sent it to the gang chat.

Yuanshi Tianzun: Everyone, prepare, enter the dungeon in two days.

Xie Lingxi: Ahhh, I can enter the dungeon with Yuanshi Gege again. I miss Jinshui Amusement Park (shy).

Xie Lingxi and the Queen are also on the list of people entering the dungeon. Both of them successfully advanced to Saint level in the killing dungeon at the end of the year.

Hongjige: Fallen Monarch? Doesn't sound very auspicious. These

two days I'll go to worship Buddha and ask for a lottery for everyone.

Xiahou Aotian: If you want to ask for a lottery, just come to me directly.

Sun Miaomiao: Xiahou Aotian, you don't understand. This is the obsession of the Canton soup people. Also, I don't understand the character task in the dungeon.

Tianxia Guihuo: It should be different characters arranged according to different roles. In this kind of dungeon, the tasks of Saints and Dominators are naturally different.

Hongjige: It's still the shame of the Fire Master! (Thumbs up, thumbs up)

Tianxia Guihuo was too lazy to pay attention to him.

At this time, Zhang Yuanqing's phone rang. The caller was: Jerk Knight!

Why is this guy calling me? Zhang Yuanqing answered the phone. What came from inside was not Zhai Cai's voice, but a young woman's voice:

"Yuanshi Tianzun, is that you? I'm An Yeqi."

An Yeqi? That pretty secretary with the high hairline? Zhang Yuanqing remembered this person and said, "It's me. What's the matter?"

An Yeqi said anxiously, "The boss is in trouble."
