Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 246 - 156: The Path to Kingship, Personally Paved by Ji Dang

胡瑶 put on an act of searching for a while, then took out the Spiritual Medicine she had prepared in advance.

She bit her arm, causing blood to flow freely, and returned with it dripping down.

The Cow Demon had just woken up to see an incredibly beautiful woman tending to his wounds.

The Monkey Demon beside him said, "My king, you must not go out searching for healing herbs yourself anymore!"

"Look at you; every time you go out, you get severely injured!"

The Cow Demon felt grateful, yet he couldn't help but miss the former king.

"I beg you, my king, save my king!"

The king of the Demon Clan was never worth much.

Because they didn't have this concept at all, they just thought calling themselves king was prestigious, so they did.

Hu Yao thought Ji Dang hadn't gone far, so she said, "Once your injuries heal a bit, we'll go."

After a day, once Hu Yao confirmed that Ji Dang had retreated, she led more than ten severely injured demons to their territory.

Blood was everywhere on the mountain, and their king lay in a pool of blood, reeking.

After crying for a while, they all looked at Hu Yao, hoping she could lead them to find a new path.

After gathering the Foundation Establishment demons here, Hu Yao also acquired a large amount of treasure from the Demon Clan king's collection.

Ji Dang had come to the West Desert to hunt the Master of Mortal World and had no time to gather large amounts of treasure, which would be a burden for him. So he only took the part he urgently needed.

Not everyone had a Snake Gu; even if they did, they could only carry a small amount.

The rest, those left behind, were practically all taken by Hu Yao.

Then, Hu Yao had resources to recruit more Foundation Establishment demons.

Her plan was clear, merely to follow Ji Dang from a distance.

Hearing where there was news of the death of a Demon Clan king, she waited two days. After Ji Dang left, she would go to gather the Demon Clan and collect treasures.

Ji Dang never expected that there would be a tiger demon with extraordinary talent and great strength, yet unknown, following behind him.

The old man wearing a Seven-colored Feather Robe stared blankly at the scene before him, and he had to admit, the fortune on this woman was quite abundant.

Couldn't it be that after Ji Dang hunted all the famed Foundation Establishment demons in the West Desert, it would instead benefit her?

That shouldn't happen, right?

Could this silly girl's luck really work out?

A few more days passed, and Hu Yao's group began to grow, from over a dozen demons to more than thirty.

Moreover, this trend showed no signs of stopping, with the entire group expanding like a snowball.

Hu Yao was rather generous with money, and those demons who followed her strangely and sincerely pledged their allegiance!

They referred to her as "my king" at every chance.

None was happier than the monkey.

He could already feel that the day when his king truly ascended the throne wasn't far off.

Hu Yao didn't dwell on it much, just followed Ji Dang along and kept picking up demons along the way.

Treasures were not in short supply, nor were resources for Cultivation; life unexpectedly began to improve.

From previously being penniless, she now found her purse bulging.

"At this rate, I can soon pay back the money I owe the scholar!"

"After picking up a thousand demons, we'll give a surprise to the seniors and the scholar!"

No other demon had the courage like Hu Yao.

It was only Hu Yao, with her carefree nature, not overthinking things, who dared to do this.

The mindset of the Demon Clan was always beyond human understanding.

Compared to the smooth-sailing Hu Yao, Chen Qing's side was far more awkward.

After all, Yan Shiyin was currently dominant, with his forces fully mobilized, dispatching the Mystic Gate Army in great numbers to intercept those heading south.

Under intense pressure, many ordinary Foundation Establishments chose to betray their original masters and join Yan Shiyin.

Though Chen Qing saved a few people in recent days, it was still far from sufficient, yet the task of assembling the Foundation Establishment evil spirits of Wu Country progressed with Divine Speed.

According to Chen Qing's estimates, there were nearly a hundred Foundation Establishment evil spirits hidden in the southern part of Wu Country.

In all of Wu Country, they could gather about two hundred Foundation Establishment evil spirits.

Unfortunately, the northern part of Wu Country currently belonged entirely to Yan Shiyin's territory, where he could not easily go.

Compared to the over a thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators under Yan Shiyin's command, this ratio was small.

Yet it should be sufficient to deter the many large forces considering defecting to him.

Chen Qing spent nearly a month barely covering the entire southern part of Wu Country.

He didn't need to go to every place, only to reach a spot and have the evil spirits there gather the nearby evil spirits.

During two gatherings, nothing significant happened; Ji Ru continued to search for the promotion materials for the Three-year Cicada.

Due to the chaos engulfing the Nanli tribes, Xu Yaofeng was cut off from reinforcements and dared not strike easily.

After Murong Lang's Foundation Establishment, relying on translating the Book of Communication with Gods, his status soared rapidly, allowing him to call the shots in Thunder Pure Land and live quite happily.

It was Hu Yao, unexpectedly becoming wealthy, repaid the scholar and all the Spirit Stones owed to him, leaving Chen Qing slightly puzzled.

Now, having almost informed all Foundation Establishment evil spirits in the south of Wu Country to go to the Dao Origin Land to meet him, Chen Qing was also about to set out to return to Dao Origin Land to see how the recruitment was progressing.

The earth now appeared entirely crimson, with gusts of wind carrying thumb-sized Spirit Gold fragments.

Everywhere in Wu Country could now be seen landscapes composed entirely of metal.

At this moment, the Dao Origin Land was overcrowded, with a large number of Foundation Establishments gathering there.
