This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

But in the blink of an eye, just as Liang Yi returned to the entrance of the temporary campsite and hadn't managed to share a few words with Su Youyi, he discovered that Su Youyi had already been taken by her master with a reluctant gaze to seek treatment for her injuries from the people of Medicine Valley.

Su Youyi's injuries were indeed quite complex and severe. Relying on healing pills and closed-door recovery would take too long. Targeted treatment by the experts of Medicine Valley could greatly shorten the healing time and ensure that there would be no lasting side effects.

"Wait till I get back and I'll take care of you, kid."

Chen Hua only left these words behind and, amidst Liang Yi's wry smile, disappeared with Su Youyi, leaving Liang Yi and Yue Bai behind.

"The Great Me is off to find some tasty treats to calm the nerves, I won't be accompanying you for these two days, meow."

Lord Orange licked its paws and hurried off, taking three steps as two, planning to make a quick escape.

"That said, here's... take this."

However, Lord Orange, who had not gone far, seemed to remember something, turned back, and fished out an exquisite Storage Ring to toss to Liang Yi from who knows where.

"The White Tiger Envoy's Storage Ring. I bit off his arm earlier, so naturally, his Storage Ring came into my possession."

Lord Orange shook its body, feeling a little awkward remembering this; later, it needs to eat more dried fish to settle its nerves.

"Um... this is an unexpected windfall."

Liang Yi casually caught the ring, unexpectedly receiving an additional prize.

"The ring of the White Tiger Envoy?"

Yue Bai tiptoed up, curiously examining the silver-white ring lying in Liang Yi's palm, engraved with the image of a majestic White Tiger.

"Is the Array inside still intact?"

Yue Bai looked at the ring, which showed no aura of being a Magical Treasure, and asked in puzzlement.

"It's there, but it's strange that it didn't self-destruct."

Liang Yi took Yue Bai with him to proceed, planning to head back to their accommodations first.

Generally speaking, high-level Storage Rings would have an Array imprinted by the ring's owner, which would be connected to the owner's spirit.

If the ring's owner falls, the Array would immediately destroy everything within the ring along with it.

Such rings are extremely rare and really aren't something the average Cultivator could afford.

"I wonder what kind of space is in Lord Orange's belly to be able to isolate such a connection."

Liang Yi nonchalantly tossed the ring in his hand, looking somewhat dejected.

Could that guy's belly really be some kind of unique space?

"So that means the stuff inside the ring is still there, right?"

Hearing this, Yue Bai felt a bit excited. Although she didn't know what was inside the ring, the idea of uncovering treasure was quite thrilling.

"There are too many people around right now; we'll take a look after we get back."

"Okay!"

Yue Bai didn't show any disappointment. Instead, she sweetly smiled in agreement.

Liang Yi glanced at Yue Bai, who was all smiles, wondering why the little fox seemed so happy, her smile as sweet as honey.

The two walked side by side, and naturally, Liang Yi couldn't see Yue Bai's tail wagging happily behind her.

To Yue Bai, just being with Brother Liang Yi, even if they did nothing, was a reason to be happy.

Ignoring the content little fox for now, Liang Yi turned to look at the campsite, which had actually become a small city scene. Since they had left, the number of players in the city seemed to have increased tenfold, with player figures visible everywhere, actively mingling.

Apart from faces brimming with joy and excitement chatting with each other, almost every player was wounded.

Glancing through the player's forum, Liang Yi came to understand that the battle between the Abyss and Mystical Mechanism Continent had sparked a new round of eruption.

Amidst the ceaseless mobilization by various Super Forces, the vast majority of players, even if not directly on the battlefield, still had such a mission hanging in their quest panel.

These players in the city were those who had fallen once and come back to recuperate, while the majority were still active on the battlefield, not intending to return until they've used up their resurrection count.

"Wow, quite lively."

Liang Yi was greatly amused by the endless stream of entertaining posts on the player's forum.

Aside from this central battlefield, the surrounding four battlefields had also seen new outbreaks of war.

And the hot topic among players has to be the Chiefs of Super Forces currently active on the various battlefields.

After the realization that Liang Yi and Su Youyi both surpassed them and advanced to the Seventh Realm, these Chiefs entered a state of unparalleled performance on the battlefield, leading the Cultivators of Mystical Mechanism to unleash a frenzy of attacks on the Abyss.

There are ferocious individuals like Ke Mengzhan and Liu Rouxin who have unmatched prowess in single combat and remain undefeated across the battlefields.

There are also calculating cultivators like He Zhiqing and Pang Qingshi, who are aware of their Heavenly Destiny and treat the battlefield as a chessboard and the Cultivators as chess pieces, making moves without regret, dominating the field!

In the central battlefield, Zhou Wudao, faced with far more Abyssal forces than on other battlefields, cooperated with Zen's Hui Zhi, managing successfully to hold the Abyss Army back there.

Players were dazzled by the sight, and what rendered Liang Yi speechless was that many players who had been strolling around the central battlefield decided to switch sides after watching videos about Liu Rouxin and Pang Qingshi on the forums, heading straight to the other two battlefields.

Of course, fervor isn't just reserved for the guys; a fair number of players were also drawn to Ke Mengzhan and He Zhiqing.

"We just want to contribute our strength to the cause of the Mystical Mechanism Continent, it's not like we're lusting after their bodies or anything!"

So claimed an unidentified player, putting on a brave face.

As for the seemingly impoverished painter Zhou Wudao and the modest Hui Zhi who, though aesthetically pleasing, didn't have much of a following, the players who headed their way were few and far between.

Most players who came to the central battlefield were really there for the high rewards of the battlefield.

These frenzied Chiefs also experienced terrifyingly rapid advancement, breaking through their limits and ascending to the Seventh Realm shortly after parting ways with Liang Yi.

Now, with the help of the World Origin, their cultivation speed skyrocketed, and their strength evolved every single day.

The Abyss Army's original intent was to ambush and carry out beheading operations, but the astonishing rate at which these formidable individuals progressed meant yesterday's plans required overthrowing and recalculating today.

"Truly terrifying... Is this what it looks like when Super Force Chiefs go all out?"

Liang Yi shook his head in amazement, a sense of wonder in his heart.

Apart from being motivated by him and Su Youyi, it was clear that these people also had intentions of mutual competition.

Each one was a leading figure in their own battlefield, and none would be willing to be outdone by the other Chiefs.

If it were any other time, they might have settled their rivalry through sparring challenges, but now the most convincing evidence of their strength, other than their prowess, was their battle achievements.

"Nevermind, let's not worry about them for now. They're currently in a phase of rapid development following a period of accumulation. It'll probably be a while before they hit another bottleneck."

Each Sector Chief has a depth of resources that the average person can hardly imagine, and it is this depth that sustains their extraordinary power over other Cultivators of the same Realm.

Previously, turning this depth into strength could only be achieved over time, but now the changes in the battlefield rules have opened a new path for these Chiefs.

And it's not just them; all the renowned geniuses of the world are now doing the same.

On the battlefield, aside from shining stars like He Zhiqing, numerous potential geniuses have also unveiled their latent abilities, becoming renowned across the continent like flickering stars.

Liang Yi even found posts about himself by players of the Purple Cloud Sect on the forums asking where he and Su Youyi had run off to.

As for this question, Liang Yi silently dropped the White Tiger's Seven Killings Manual into the faction exchange list as a sign that he was still alive.

Oh, and the Demon Clan players? The Young Master hardly made any appearances, not to mention the top disciple of the faction was also missing.

Do you know how these players, without Yue Bai to watch, have spent these days?

Recall how thrilled they were when they first learned that their clan also had a Chief, a stunning half-fox girl with white hair and red eyes?

They had thought the fox demon would be a world-enticing figure, but it turned out she was a pure and soft cute girl.

For this kind of charm by contrast, we could only ask Wei to come out and go through the motions!

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the players' comments put Liang Yi in an excellent mood, and he happily pinched Yue Bai's ear, eliciting a series of coquettish protests from her.

"What's going on? Why all of a sudden pinch someone's ear?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing, I just suddenly saw someone praising you, and it put me in a great mood."

Liang Yi's eyes curved into smiles, his face beaming with joy.

"?"

Yue Bai looked puzzled, she hadn't heard anyone praising her.

But seeing the smile on Liang Yi's face, she also unconsciously felt happy, and when Liang Yi wasn't paying attention, she even quietly grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Because someone praised me, that's why Brother Liang Yi is happy, so that means Brother Liang Yi likes me in his heart, too."
