Chapter 71 Temptation

Chapter 71 Temptation
Maokui is not only beautiful but also talented. His dancing moves are stunning. Which demon wouldn't like him?

Tu Zi’s favorite person is the Palace Master, and the second is Mao Kui. Now that she is praised by the monster she likes, she even walks in a floating manner.

When she walked into the room with the tray, their conversation had skipped self-introductions and was discussing the Rabbit Village.

Rabbit Hero told the whole story in detail, but the Palace Master frowned and asked again, "Are you sure the people who massacred the villagers were the lobster clan?"

"Sure." Rabbit Hero looked determined, and he looked into the Palace Master's eyes without dodging.

Jiang Yuan raised his hand silently and said, "I can testify to this. When I first picked up the Rabbit Man, he was seriously injured. Later, the lobster wanted to chase us, but we luckily escaped. If I remember correctly, his name was Shrimp."

"Meow!" Seeing Jiang Yuan speak, the big cat quickly raised its paw and called out, wanting to express the same meaning as Jiang Yuan.

But the Palace Master did not reply immediately, and the room fell into an eerie silence. After pouring tea for them, Tu Zi walked back behind the Palace Master and waited for orders.

After thinking for a moment, the Palace Master said in a serious tone: "I understand. I will investigate according to what you said. If it is really as you said... I will make the lobster tribe pay with blood!"

After solving this problem, she turned her attention to Jiang Yuan. Although her information had been circulated in the Monster Village a long time ago and she had heard that she had come to Moon Bay before, this was the first time she met her face to face.

If she hadn't been busy in the past few days and someone had come here to harass her without any eyes, she should have taken the initiative to meet her.

Thinking of this, she asked, "Your name is Jiang Yuan?"

Jiang Yuan nodded, and suddenly looked at the Palace Master, winked at her, and then asked directly: "Palace Master Sister, is the treasure that protects the clan in the Moon Palace?"

Perhaps because Jiang Yuan asked too directly, the Palace Master's expression was a little stunned. She looked at Jiang Yuan's big eyes, which were full of expectation. She really couldn't bear to say perfunctory or rejecting words, so she nodded and said, "Yes."

"Then...can you give it to me?" Jiang Yuan said, feeling embarrassed.

Rabbit Man was watching from the side and couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

How come this little girl suddenly became so brave!

Jiang Yuan looked at his thumb, feeling a little guilty. She couldn't say that it was her child's intuition that told her that this Palace Master looked very easy to talk to!
"Of course." The palace master said with a smile.

When Tu Zi heard this, she was confused at first, but after she came to her senses, she wanted to get closer and remind her in a low voice.

The Palace Master had clearly said before that the savior must not be allowed to obtain the clan’s treasure so easily, and that she must not be spoiled. After all, other clans are not as easy to talk to as the Rabbit Clan. Why has he changed his mind now?
But before she could finish her words, she heard her palace master change the subject and said, "But... can you come up to me? I want to ask you a few questions."

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan stood up cheerfully. Just as she was about to jump towards the Palace Master, Rabbit Hero quickly stretched out his claws to hold her, and Big Cat also bit the corner of her clothes.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuan looked sideways and asked puzzledly.

Big Cat couldn't talk during the day, so he turned his head to look at Rabbit Man. Rabbit Man obviously thought the same thing as him, and couldn't help but frowned and warned him worriedly: "Be careful, there's a scam!"

"Yeah, I know...you wait for me here!" Jiang Yuan knew that Big Cat and Rabbit Man were doing this for her own good. After comforting them briefly, she walked towards the Palace Master's seat.

But she just took three steps and stood there in a daze. Her eyes seemed to lose their spirit in an instant and became empty and lifeless. "Palace Master, what do you mean?"

The Rabbit Hero realized something was wrong almost instantly. He drew his knife and was about to stand up to question him when a powerful demonic force came towards him and suppressed him so much that he couldn't get up.

The same situation happened to the big cat, but it was still struggling, and its cries were full of unwillingness.

Seeing that Big Cat was struggling to the point of vomiting blood, Tu Zi quickly ran up to it, stretched out his claws and pointed at its brow. Seeing that it stopped moving and only its two eyes as big as light bulbs could move, he suddenly found it funny.

She patted its head, ignoring its eyes that wanted to bite the monster, and said, "Be good, be quiet for a while... Don't be nervous, the Palace Master just wants to ask her a few questions, it won't kill her."

The Rabbit Warrior raised his paw and saluted, not caring whether the Palace Master could hear him or not, and said loudly: "Jiang Yuan is related to the survival of the demon land, please show mercy, Palace Master."

Hearing this, Tu Zi turned around and looked at the Palace Master. Seeing that she had closed her eyes, it was obvious that she had begun to test Jiang Yuan. She turned around and waved her paw at Rabbit Hero, saying, "I know, I know. The Palace Master knows how to act. Don't worry!"

Rabbit Hero glanced at Big Cat, but was helpless: this was their territory after all, and if a fight really broke out, he and Big Cat would only be beaten.

The most valuable thing about demons is self-awareness.

He was very angry, but he had to bear it!

Thinking of this, Rabbit Man put the knife back into the sheath...

……

Jiang Yuan felt that the scene in front of her eyes suddenly changed, and the surroundings became dim and dark. A familiar voice sounded in her ears: "Jinchun should have told you that only by gathering the treasures of the seven guardian tribes, condensing the magic pill, and then using the power of the magic pill to repair and reinforce the land and sea barriers, can the great catastrophe of the demon world be temporarily resolved."

Jiang Yuan carefully recalled what Elder Jinchun had said at the time and nodded, "Yes, that's what the elder told me."

After receiving a positive answer, the Palace Master slowly appeared in front of Jiang Yuan like a wisp of green smoke. She looked at the child in front of her with a puzzled look, and asked again: "The road to collecting the treasures of the Seven Guardians is extremely steep, and there are many demons with ulterior motives on the way. If you are not careful, your life will be in danger... Why did you choose to take on the task of saving the demon world?"

"Huh?" Jiang Yuan was stunned, blinked, and asked back: "This question...Didn't Elder Jinchun tell you the reason?"

The Palace Master shook his head and replied, "No, that's why I came to ask you."

Jiang Yuan looked conflicted, but finally chose to answer truthfully, saying, "The village chief said that only after I complete my mission in this world can I return to my original world."

"You can also choose to stay in this world forever."

The Palace Master smiled lightly, her tone gentle and her words a little tempting, and then she analyzed the benefits of her staying in this world: "You are now the only human in the demon world. No matter where you go in the future, there will be demons who will treat you as a guest of honor. Whatever you want, they will give it to you. By then, you will have wealth, power and beauty..."

Having said that, the Palace Master paused for a moment, looking at Jiang Yuan's innocent expression and clear eyes, he couldn't help but cough lightly and almost couldn't continue.

After waiting for a few breaths, she continued to lie and coaxed him softly, "Once you have repaired the land and sea barrier, you will be able to live forever in this world, and your friends will always be with you. How wonderful it is."

Jiang Yuan immediately shook his head upon hearing this, and said without any hesitation: "It is precisely because I want to go back that I accepted this mission. If I decided to stay in this world, why would I work so hard to collect treasures to protect the clan?"
