Chapter 185 Mermaid
Chen Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly said "Not good", but a smile appeared on his face: "Go to see the Demon Lord?
Okay, okay, we were just about to visit Lord Demon!
Old man, please lead the way."
The old woman looked at Chen Yu suspiciously, as if doubting the truth of his words.
Chen Yu was still smiling, but he was thinking quickly about countermeasures in his mind.
This old woman looks difficult to deal with, and we must find a way to get away from her.
The old woman turned around and led the way, with Chen Yu and his group following behind her. Daji approached Chen Yu and asked in a low voice, "Master, are we really going to see the Demon Lord?
I heard the Demon Lord is very scary."
Chen Yu touched Daji's head and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here.
No matter how terrifying the Demon Lord is, can he be scarier than me?"
Daji tilted her head and thought about it. She felt that what Chen Yu said made sense, so she was no longer afraid.
They followed the old woman through a long corridor. On both sides of the corridor were hung some strange portraits. The characters in the paintings had hideous faces and looked very scary.
Su Wan'er and Xiaoya hugged each other tightly, trembling with fear.
Chen Yu looked at these portraits with great interest, wondering about the backgrounds of the people in these portraits.
At the end of the corridor is a huge stone door with some complex patterns carved on it, which looks like some kind of ancient formation.
The old woman walked to the stone gate, muttered something, formed seals with her hands, and a black light shot towards the stone gate.
The stone door slowly opened, revealing a dark cave entrance. The old woman walked in first, followed closely by Chen Yu and his group.
Inside the cave entrance was a staircase extending downwards, with some dim oil lamps lit on both sides, emitting a faint light.
As Chen Yu and his group walked down the stairs, the air became more and more humid and the temperature became lower and lower.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they finally reached the end of the stairs.
In front of me is a spacious underground hall. In the center of the hall is a huge altar with a black crystal ball placed on it.
The crystal ball emitted a strange light, illuminating the entire hall.
There are some mysterious runes carved on the walls around the hall. The runes are flashing with a faint red light and look very strange.
In the center of the hall stood a man in a black robe. His back was facing Chen Yu and the others, so his face could not be seen clearly.
"Master Demon, I have brought them here." The old woman said respectfully.
The man in black robe slowly turned around, revealing an extremely handsome face.
His eyes were golden and sparkled with a terrifying light.
Chen Yu was secretly surprised when he saw the face of the man in black robe. He had seen this face before in the illusion of the sea of blood!
"Are you the humans who trespassed into my Demon Realm?" The Demon Lord's voice was low and magnetic.
Chen Yu quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Master Demon, we didn't mean to offend you, we just..."
"Shut up!" The Demon Lord interrupted Chen Yu, "I don't want to hear your explanation.
You have trespassed into my territory, your crime is unforgivable!"
Chen Yu's heart sank. It seemed that this time he was in great danger.
"Lord Demon, we really have no ill intentions." Chen Yu wanted to explain.
"Whether they have malicious intent or not is not up to you to decide." The Demon Lord snorted coldly, "Come here, take them down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of demon soldiers in black armor rushed out from all sides of the hall and surrounded Chen Yu and others.
Seeing this, Chen Yu and others immediately took up fighting stances, ready to fight to the death.
"Master, what should we do now?" Liu Ruyan asked.
Chen Yu said in a deep voice: "Wait a moment, let me try to reason with the Demon Lord first."
"Reasonable?" Liu Ruyan gave a wry smile. "Do you think the Demon Lord will listen to your reason?"
Chen Yu did not answer, but turned to look at the Demon Lord and said, "Master Demon Lord, we are really just here for tourism, and we have no ill will towards the Demon Realm.
We are willing to compensate you for your losses, and only ask that you spare our lives."
The Demon Lord sneered: "Travel? Do you think I will believe it?
You humans are all cunning liars!"
"Master Demon, we really didn't lie to you." Chen Yu said, "We are from the mortal world, and we are full of curiosity about everything in the Demon Realm.
We just want to come and see the scenery of the Demon Realm and experience its customs and people."
The Demon Lord stared at Chen Yu for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Interesting, interesting!
You humans are so audacious! "
Chen Yu didn't know what the Demon Lord meant, so he could only smile.
"Since you're here for tourism, then have fun." The Demon Lord said, "There are many fun places in the Demon Realm. I guarantee you'll be reluctant to leave."
Chen Yu quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Master Demon."
"However," the Demon Lord changed the subject, "you must abide by the rules of the Demon Realm and not disrupt the order here at will."
"Of course, of course." Chen Yu nodded in agreement.
The Demon Lord waved his hand and said, "Take them down and treat them well!"
The old woman took the order and left the hall with Chen Yu and his group.
"Master, what does the Demon Lord mean by this?" Su Wan'er asked.
Chen Yu touched his chin, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know what he means.
But since he asked us to have some fun, let’s have some fun!
Let’s go stroll around the streets of Demon Realm first and see if there’s anything interesting to see.”
The old woman led Chen Yu and his group through dark passages and came to a spacious underground dock.
There are many small boats of various types moored at the dock. The hulls are all made of a black rock and emit a faint light.
"Old man, where are we going?" Chen Yu asked curiously.
The old woman glanced at Chen Yu without saying a word. She walked straight to a small boat and motioned Chen Yu and others to get on board.
Chen Yu and others looked at each other, not knowing what the old woman was up to, but they still got on the boat obediently.
The old woman was the last to board the boat, and she took out a black stone from her bosom and placed it in a groove in the bow.
As soon as the black stone was placed into the groove, the boat started automatically, slowly sailed away from the dock and headed towards the depths of the sea of blood.
"Old man, where are we going?" Chen Yu asked again.
The old woman still didn't speak, but just closed her eyes, as if she was resting.
Chen Yu sighed helplessly and gave up the idea of asking. He turned around to admire the scenery of the sea of blood.
The water of the Blood Sea is dark red and emits a strong smell of blood, which is nauseating.
The waves on the sea were surging, creating blood-red waves.
Chen Yu looked at this strange sea of blood and was secretly amazed. This Demon Realm was truly a magical place, filled with mystery and weirdness everywhere.
The boat sailed on the sea of blood for about half an hour and arrived at a relatively calm sea area.
The old woman opened her eyes, pointed to a small island ahead, and said, "We're here. We'll get off the boat here."
Chen Yu looked up and saw that there was indeed a small island in front of him. The island was not big and was bare with nothing on it. There was only a black stone tablet standing in the center of the island.
After the boat docked, the old woman jumped off the boat first, and then signaled Chen Yu and others to get off the boat as well.
Chen Yu and others got off the boat and followed the old woman to the black stone tablet.
There were some ancient characters engraved on the stone tablet, but Chen Yu didn't recognize a single word.
"Old man, what is written here?" Chen Yu asked.
The old woman glanced at Chen Yu and said, "This is the language of the demons. Of course you don't recognize it."
"Demon language?" Chen Yu asked curiously, "Then can you tell me what's written on it?"
The old woman shook her head and said, "I can't tell you. This is the secret of the demon clan and cannot be disclosed to outsiders."
Although Chen Yu was curious, he knew that the old woman would not tell him, so he had to give up.
"What should we do now?" Chen Yu asked.
The old woman pointed at the stone tablet and said, "Put a drop of your blood on this stone tablet."
"Drop blood?" Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, "Why drip blood?"
The old woman didn't explain, but said coldly: "I told you to bleed, so bleed. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Chen Yu had no choice but to bite his finger, squeeze out a drop of blood and drip it on the stone tablet.
Seeing this, Lin Qingxue and others followed suit.
When everyone's blood dripped onto the stone tablet, the stone tablet suddenly emitted a dazzling red light, enveloping Chen Yu and others.
Chen Yu and the others only felt a flash before their eyes, and when they opened their eyes again, they found that they were no longer on the island.
They were now in a huge cave. The ceiling of the cave was inlaid with gems that emitted a faint glow, illuminating the entire cave as if it were daytime.
The floor of the cave is covered with a soft red carpet, on which are placed all kinds of rare treasures, shining with gold and dazzling.
"Where is this?" Su Wan'er asked curiously.
Chen Yu got up from the ground, dusted himself off, looked around, and found that the walls of the cave were carved with all kinds of strange patterns, which looked like some kind of ancient writing.
"I don't know either." Chen Yu shrugged. "But it doesn't look like a bad place."
"Master, look!" Liu Ruyan shouted, pointing deep into the cave.
Chen Yu looked in the direction of Liu Ruyan's finger and saw a huge pool of blood deep in the cave. The pool was filled with sticky blood and emitted a pungent smell of blood.
"What...what is this?" Lin Qingxue asked palely, covering her nose.
"Sea of blood." A voice came from the pool of blood.
Chen Yu and others looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in a red robe slowly rising from the pool of blood.
The woman was tall and beautiful, with long fiery red hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall, and a pair of blood-red eyes emitting a strange light.
"Who are you?" Chen Yu asked vigilantly.
"I am the Spirit of the Blood Sea," the woman said calmly, "You can call me Blood Princess."
"Blood Princess?" Chen Yu frowned. "Why did you bring us here?"
Xue Ji smiled slightly and said, "Of course I brought you here to play."
"Play?" Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, "Play what?"
"Play a game." Xue Ji said, "It's a very interesting game."
Chen Yu's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "Oh no!" This Blood Princess didn't look like a good person, and the game she was talking about was definitely not a good one.
"What game?" Chen Yu asked.
The Blood Princess pointed at the blood pool and said, "Do you see this blood pool? If you jump into it, you will gain powerful strength."
Chen Yu looked at the swirling blood and felt a chill in his heart.
"Jump into the blood pool?" Chen Yu shook his head. "I refuse."
"Refuse?" Xue Ji sneered, "You have no right to refuse."
As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful suction force surged out from the blood pool, sucking Chen Yu and others into the blood pool.
