The Queen is a demoness?
Indeed, before they could react, a long saber was seen slashing towards the Jade Pipa Spirit.
Chii!
The Heavenly Origin Divine Blade instantly pierced her body, killing her in the blink of an eye and revealing her true form.
Chii!
At that very moment, the Destruction Divine Blade also pierced the Pheasant Spirit's body.
In a short while, two demons were slain.
"You're asking for death!"
Seeing her two sisters instantly killed by Deng Jiugong, the Fox Spirit Daji knew Deng Jiugong was no ordinary person.
Immediately, her expression turned furious, and with a raise of her hand, she struck Deng Jiugong.
However, the three demons were merely at the Golden Immortal Realm in cultivation. The Fox Spirit, with the highest cultivation, was only at Golden Immortal Realm Perfection, nowhere near Deng Jiugong's match.
Buzzz!
After her attack failed, the Fox Spirit saw the situation was dire. She moved her body and fled.
"Immortal Binding Rope!"
A flash of golden light was seen, and the Fox Spirit, who had just fled, was instantly bound by the Immortal Binding Rope and fell to the ground.
"My King, save me!"
Sensing her demise was imminent, the Fox Spirit could only seek help from Emperor Xin.
However, Emperor Xin stared at the scene as if stunned. Before he could speak, Deng Jiugong's two divine blades struck down fiercely. The Fox Spirit Daji instantly perished, transforming into a dead Nine-tailed Fox!
"Ding dong, Host has slain three demons and obtained one blind box!"
At this very moment, Deng Jiugong's reward arrived.
"This!!!"
Seeing this, everyone was stunned.
So, there had been three demons causing trouble around the King all along.
Buzzz!
At this moment, the demonic energy in Emperor Xin's mind dissipated, and his mind gradually cleared, understanding everything perfectly!
Wa Palace!
The instant the three demons were slain by Deng Jiugong, Nuwa, who was in seclusion, suddenly opened her eyes.
"The three demons are dead!"
Ever since Nuwa sent the three demons to bewitch Emperor Xin, Nuwa had been in seclusion.
While in seclusion, she was actually just keeping herself out of it.
Therefore, Nuwa never interfered with the three demons. Even when the three demons ended up helping Emperor Xin, Nuwa didn't care!
The grand trend of the Heavenly Dao was for Great Zhou to replace Great Shang, ushering in a change of dynasty.
To Nuwa, it didn't matter who became the ruler of the human world.
She sent the three demons to bewitch Emperor Xin simply because Emperor Xin had written a poem in her temple in the human world.
In reality, Nuwa knew very well how that poem came about.
It was the Western Sect's intention to involve her in this Investiture of the Gods Tribulation.
Nuwa did not wish to offend the two Saints of the Western Sect, so she could only send the three demons to thwart the Western Saints' scheme!
As a Saint of the Heavenly Dao, Nuwa had to act according to the will of heaven. Thus, she could only let the three demons bewitch Emperor Xin and initiate the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation.
She sent the three demons, ostensibly to disrupt the Great Shang court. In reality, Nuwa didn't care how this Investiture of the Gods Tribulation would unfold.
Even though Emperor Xin was being schemed against by the Western Sect, Nuwa, while outwardly having the three demons disrupt the Great Shang court, actually didn't care what form Great Shang would take.
If Great Shang were to destroy Western Zhou in the end, Nuwa could use the excuse of the three demons helping Emperor Xin to punish them.
If Western Zhou destroyed Great Shang, the fate of the three demons was self-evident; they would be annihilated along with Great Shang.
Therefore, the three demons were destined to be pawns once sent out.
And Nuwa could always remain uninvolved.
Furthermore, when she first discovered that the three demons were not following her orders and had instead helped Emperor Xin, Nuwa even had her disciple, Lingzhu Zi, reincarnate as a disciple of the Chan Sect, precisely to avoid any gossip.
Nuwa had completely absolved herself!
Therefore, upon sensing that the three demons were dead, Nuwa actually breathed a sigh of relief.
This was for the best!
The three demons had disrupted the Great Shang court, pushing Great Shang to the brink of destruction, and she, Nuwa, had even lost three demons!
The more the three demons helped Emperor Xin, the sooner they died, and the cleaner Nuwa would profit.
As for obeying the will of heaven, she had reincarnated her own attendant, Lingzhu Zi, under the Chan Sect.
In this way, it could be considered that she had followed the will of heaven and also thwarted the schemes of the Western Saints!
However, Nuwa held no good feelings towards the Two Western Saints.
They had schemed against Emperor Xin, and they had schemed against her, Nuwa. By scheming against her, they had initiated the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation!
Thinking of this, Nuwa felt displeased!
However, Nuwa did not wish to truly fall out with the Two Western Saints, so she could only sacrifice the three demons to save her own face!
In the royal palace of Chaoge!
After Deng Jiugong beheaded the three demons, he obtained a blind box.
Blind boxes could often bring pleasant surprises.
Therefore, upon obtaining the blind box, Deng Jiugong opened it immediately.
"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for opening the blind box and obtaining one Sign-in Card + one Marriage Correction Card!"
This time, the blind box contained two items in total.
Deng Jiugong already had one Sign-in Card before, and now he had obtained another, bringing his total to two. However, Deng Jiugong had never used them before.
He was unsure what benefits the Sign-in Card could bring him.
As for the Marriage Correction Card, it left Deng Jiugong bewildered!
He had killed someone's wife, and they rewarded him with a Marriage Correction Card?
It felt rather strange!
However, he could largely understand it. This Marriage Correction Card had the function of correcting marriages.
After Queen Jiang's death, Emperor Xin had made the Fox Spirit Daji his queen.
Now that he had beheaded the Fox Spirit, it was impossible to correct Emperor Xin's marriage. Deng Jiugong did not want to waste such a tantalizing treasure card.
Perhaps, if he kept it, it might be useful for himself!
Snapping back to reality, he saw Emperor Xin staring blankly at him. Only then did Deng Jiugong enter the Nine-Room Hall.
Unknowingly, many ministers had cleared a wide path for him, their expressions filled with awe.
Grand Tutor Wen dared not do what Deng Jiugong had done, which commanded great respect.
"My dear Deng!"
Emperor Xin said cautiously.
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
Deng Jiugong replied.
"Cough, cough!" Emperor Xin straightened his posture. Unknowingly, as a monarch, he had lost his imposing demeanor in front of his subjects.
After a moment of thought, Emperor Xin finally asked.
"Are those three demonesses truly dead?"
"Naturally, they are dead!" Deng Jiugong said.
Phew!
Emperor Xin let out a long sigh of relief.
His Great Shang empire had declined to such an extent because of these three demonesses.
Now, with his mind clear, Emperor Xin's expression was complex as he recalled the three demons.
