Chapter 1011: 993 Feather Demon Clan Xi Ran_1
"Chu Qin, she's awake!" Qing Yu exclaimed to Chu Qin, who was meditatively closing his eyes at the time.
Chu Qin immediately came over, just as the woman happened to open her eyelids, revealing a pair of sparkling, ruby-like beautiful eyes.
With the backdrop of these beautiful eyes, the woman's attractiveness climbed to a new height.
Moreover, everyone could distinctly feel a certain indescribable commanding presence brimming within the woman's bright, beautiful eyes.
Upon opening her eyes, the first person the woman saw was Chu Qin, and her gaze paused slightly for a moment, as she thought to herself how there could be such a handsome man in the world.
But quickly, the woman asked in surprise, "Who are you?"
"Miss, you have finally awakened," Chu Qin said with a faint smile, "Rest assured, it was us who saved you; we mean you no harm."
"You saved me?" The woman was somewhat puzzled, "Are you demons?"
"No, we are humans, only Jiu Yin is a demon!" Chu Qin said, pointing at Jiu Yin. With Jiu Yin's appearance as the Three-headed Zhu Long Emperor, anyone would think he's a demon, so why should Chu Qin bother hiding it?
Hearing this, the woman was even more shocked, "You are humans? Where is this?"
"Demon Ancestor Blood River!" Chu Qin continued.
"This is the Demon Ancestor Blood River beneath Devil's City? Then why are you here?" the woman asked in astonishment.
"Miss, we have saved you, yet, you keep asking us questions. Isn't it time for us to ask some questions now?" Chu Qin said with a smile.
"Mm!" The woman calmed down a bit and nodded, "Then what would you like to ask?"
"For instance, who are you? Why were you in the Demon Ancestor Blood River?" Chu Qin asked in return.
"My name is Xi Ran, I am the current Clan Leader of the Feather Demon Clan, and because I unintentionally trespassed into Devil's City, I was cast down into the Demon Ancestor Blood River by the Demon Abyss Empress!" Xi Ran replied.
"You are a member of the Feather Demon Clan, a lost demon race from the Primordial Era? Wasn't the Feather Demon Clan extinct?" Jiu Yin said in surprise.
"We weren't extinct, just in hiding," Xi Ran answered. "Your appearance is so familiar, resembling our Feather Demon Clan totem, the Three-headed Zhu Long Emperor!"
"I am the Three-headed Zhu Long Emperor, Jiu Yin!" Jiu Yin replied.
"Ah, you are the Demon Palace Master, Demon Lord!" Xi Ran immediately exclaimed in alarm, "Xi Ran greets Demon Lord, I thank the Demon Lord for saving my life!"
"Please, get up!" Jiu Yin said motioning with mild excitement.
"Since you are the Wan Mo Gong Mo Zun, do you know about Ancestor Chi Mo from Wanmo Palace?" Xi Ran asked.
"Of course! Elder Chi Mo is my trusted aide!" Jiu Yin answered, "Wait, he is your great-grandfather!"
"Not a direct grandfather, my aunt is his great-niece, so Ancestor Chi Mo is also considered my great-grandfather!" Xi Ran replied.
"I never thought that Chi Mo would have descendants still alive! Where have you been hiding?" Jiu Yin said excitedly, "Why haven't you come to Wanmo Palace to find us?"
"We are not in the Central Continent, but on the Northern Region Thousand Demon Island!" Xi Ran replied.
"No wonder, Elder Chi Mo and I have never found your traces. It turns out you went to the Thousand Demon Island," Jiu Yin said excitedly.
"However, it's also fortunate that you didn't come to Wanmo Palace, otherwise, ah..." Jiu Yin's face showed a sorrowful expression, "Elder Chi Mo... he!"
"Yes, we've heard about the murder of Ancestor Chi Mo, and we were also enraged, but there was nothing we could do," Xi Ran replied. "However, Demon Lord, you need not blame yourself. Your Zhu Long Emperor clan saved the entire Feather Demon Clan, and this is what we should have done!"
"Then why, did you venture into the Devil's City?" Jiu Yin asked in confusion.
"Disaster struck the Thousand Demon Island, and only a few of the Feather Demon Clan survived. We fled to Central Continent Heaven, seeking the ancestral land of the Feather Demon Clan. Little did we expect to be hunted down everywhere by the so-called righteous path. In the end, we stumbled into the Devil's City, where all our clansmen perished, and I was cast into this place by the Pirate Empress!" Xi Ran said with immense grief.
"Ah!" Jiu Yin sighed deeply.
Then Jiu Yin looked at Chu Qin, "Chu Qin, she is from the Feather Demon Clan. My ancestors once saved the Feather Demon Clan, and so they revered us, the Three-headed Zhu Long Emperors, as their guardian gods! I, the Great Elder of Wanmo Palace, Chi Mo, am the last of the Feather Demon Clan! I never thought there would still be members of the Feather Demon Clan left! And she, she is actually the direct descendant of Elder Chi Mo, and the last of the Feather Demon Clan!"
"It seems I did the right thing," Chu Qin nodded.
Jiu Yin looked at Xi Ran, "Xi Ran, he is named Chu Qin. Although he is not of the Demon race, he will not harm us. He is my best friend. It was her who saved you!"
"Many thanks to Lord Chu Qin for saving my life!" Xi Ran said, about to kneel again.
"There's no need for that!" Chu Qin said with a slight smile, "I merely lent a hand!"
"By the way, Demon Lord, were you also cast into the Demon Ancestor Blood River by the Demon Abyss Empress?" Xi Ran asked, puzzled.
Jiu Yin shook his head, "We came in willingly. Speaking of which, Xi Ran, have you seen the World Magic Tree in the Demon Ancestor Blood River?"
"The World Magic Tree of Wanmo Palace?" Xi Ran was slightly surprised, then shook her head, "No, after I was cast into the blood river, I was attacked by Bloodrock Demon Fish and subsequently lost consciousness. The next thing I knew, I met you all. Demon Lord, are you here looking for the World Magic Tree?"
"Yes!" Jiu Yin nodded, "The World Magic Tree is within the Demon Ancestor Blood River! Once we find the World Magic Tree, I can take you out of here. It's just a pity that the length of this blood river exceeds our imagination, and it's quite difficult to find in a short time."
"That's okay, Demon Lord, there will be a way at the base of the mountain, we will definitely find the World Magic Tree," Xi Ran said with an alluring smile.
"In that case, Xi Ran," Chu Qin said with a smile, "you should recuperate first. Follow us on this journey."
"Yes, many thanks, Lord Chu Qin!" Xi Ran nodded excitedly.
Xi Ran was extremely beautiful, and having such a gorgeous woman by his side clearly added a touch of joy to Chu Qin's journey.
"Jiu Yin, aren't you the Supreme of the Demon race? See if you can communicate with the Bloodrock Demon Fish, and ask if it knows the whereabouts of the World Magic Tree," Chu Qin suggested, looking at Jiu Yin.
Jiu Yin shook his head, "The Bloodrock Demon Fish are like intellectually disabled humans; they can't communicate properly. Moreover, if I weren't in spirit form, I might have been able to cast spells and explore the memories of the Bloodrock Demon Fish, but in this form, it's impossible."
"Demon Lord, are you talking about the Sky Light Extreme Demon Curse?" Xi Ran asked.
"Yes!" Jiu Yin nodded, "Wait, the Sky Light Extreme Demon Curse—that was passed down to me by Elder Chi Mo, a unique skill of the Feather Demon Clan. Xi Ran, you?"
"Yes, I know it!" Xi Ran nodded.
