Chapter 23 The Grand Gathering of the Demon Realm

Chapter Twenty-Three: The Mysterious Demon Realm Gathering

After leaving the mysterious valley with the immortal herb, Liu Yu, Bai Suzhen, and Xiaoqing continued their journey through the martial world, chatting and laughing all the way. One day, they arrived at a bustling town. As soon as they stepped through the town gates, they heard people on the streets and alleys excitedly discussing a momentous event—the demon realm was about to host an unprecedented grand gathering, inviting demons from all realms to participate. It was said that at this grand gathering, not only would a dazzling array of precious magical treasures be displayed, but also mysterious and ancient manuals would appear.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu's eyes lit up immediately, and he excitedly said to Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, "Wife, Xiaoqing, how about we go and join in the fun? Maybe we can get some unexpected gains at this grand event, and maybe my mischievous system can even be upgraded."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoqing was so excited that she jumped up and down, saying, "Great! It must be really interesting! I can't wait to see those amazing treasures!"

Seeing their excitement, Bai Suzhen smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "In that case, let's go. But we must be careful at this grand gathering in the demon realm."

So, filled with anticipation, the three headed towards the venue of the demon realm's grand gathering. The scenery along the way was picturesque, but their hearts were already set on the bustling event.

Upon arrival, they found the place teeming with people, a bustling and vibrant scene. All sorts of bizarre and wonderful monsters had gathered there, a sight to behold. There was a lion demon engulfed in flames, each step seeming to radiate heat; there was a fox demon capable of invisibility at will, its figure appearing and disappearing unpredictably; and there was a bear demon of immense strength, its massive body like a small mountain, causing the ground to tremble slightly with its every step.

Liu Yu looked around curiously, like a child entering a wonderful new paradise. Suddenly, a flustered rabbit demon accidentally bumped into him.

The rabbit demon quickly stopped and apologized profusely, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I was walking too fast."

Liu Yu waved her hand with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Where are you going in such a hurry? Is there something really fun to do?"

The rabbit demon, panting heavily, said, "I'm going to see the treasure exhibition. I heard there's a treasure that can make people teleport instantly. If I could get it, everything would be so much easier."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu's eyes lit up immediately, filled with curiosity and longing: "Is it that amazing? Let's go and see for ourselves, maybe we can broaden our horizons."

They followed the rabbit demon to the magical artifact display area, where a dazzling array of magical treasures were displayed, exuding a mysterious aura. There were orbs that could summon wind and rain, bronze mirrors that could read minds, and mysterious artifacts that were said to allow people to teleport instantly.

At this moment, a sneaky rat demon stealthily approached a magical artifact emitting a purple light, intending to steal it while everyone was distracted.

Liu Yu, with her sharp eyes, immediately shouted, "You audacious rat demon, how dare you steal!"

The shout, like a thunderclap, exploded through the crowd. The rat demon trembled in fright and turned to run away.

Liu Yu and Xiao Qing reacted quickly and chased after them without hesitation.

The rat demon ran while shouting, "Don't chase me! Don't chase me! I had no choice!"

They weaved through the crowd, attracting the attention of the surrounding monsters. After chasing for a while, Liu Yu and Xiao Qing finally caught the rat demon in a corner.

After being captured, the rat demon looked at them pitifully, its eyes filled with tears, and said, "I just wanted to steal a magic treasure to save my sick mother. She is very ill, and without this magic treasure, she might not survive."

Bai Suzhen felt pity upon hearing this and softened her heart: "Since that's the case, I'll forgive you this time, but you must remember not to make the same mistake again. In the future, you must use proper methods to save your mother."

The rat demon was moved to tears and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, thank you. I will definitely reform myself and never do bad things again."

Continuing to stroll through the festival, they came across a stall filled with all sorts of miraculous elixirs. The stall owner, a smooth talker, kept boasting about the miraculous effects of his elixirs.

Liu Yu picked up a pill that emitted a blue light, smelled it, and said with a face full of doubt, "This pill can really increase one's cultivation by a hundred years? You're not lying to me, are you?"

Upon hearing this, the stall owner's eyes widened immediately, and he said mysteriously, "Of course, my pills are made with an ancestral secret recipe, and their effects are superb. However, they are not cheap."

Liu Yu curled her lip and said disdainfully, "I think you're just bragging. There's no such magical pill. If there really were, why don't you use it yourself?"

The stall owner got anxious, his face flushed, and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try it. You'll know if it's true or not once you try it."

Just then, the system's voice rang in Liu Yu's mind: "Host, be careful, there might be a trap. These pills may be problematic."

Upon hearing the system's reminder, Liu Yu put down the pills, pulled Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, and turned to leave.

Xiaoqing asked, puzzled, "Brother-in-law, why don't we give it a try? Maybe it's true."

Liu Yu lowered her voice and whispered, "This system is warning me that there might be a problem. We should be careful. Don't let momentary greed lead us into unnecessary trouble."

After touring the entire event, the three had gained a great deal and seen many strange and wonderful things. Just as they were preparing to leave...

Suddenly, a mysterious monster shrouded in black mist blocked their path. Their faces were obscured, but the powerful aura emanating from it suggested its formidable strength.

The monster said coldly, "Hand over what you obtained at the grand event! Otherwise, don't even think about leaving here."

Liu Yu stepped forward, shielding Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing behind him, and said fearlessly, "Don't even think about it! Come and take it yourself if you dare! We're not afraid of you."

A fierce battle is about to unfold; the surrounding air seems to have frozen...
