Radish didn't stop until it had come all the way to the back palace. Seeing the familiar figure sitting at the table, the whole Radish started trembling slightly in disbelief."Little... Missy?"
Shen Ying who was eating turned back and waved a hand while still holding her chopsticks."Hey! Radish?"
"Little Missy... Little... Missy!" Radish rushed forward rapidly, but when it reached Shen Ying's side it stopped once more, sniffed her nose, and in the next moment the whole Radish started flooding with water once more."Wah... Little Missy you're back. You are finally... finally back. Radish... Radish is so scared, so, so scared... Ahhhh!"
The more it cried, the sadder it became, and it didn't seem able to control it. It cried until the whole Radish seemed a bit dried. It looked like a child who had been wronged and ran to his parents to complain.
Shen Ying exchanged a look with Chef beside her, sighed, put down the bowl inside her hand, touched the tried leaves on top of Radish's head."What's the matter with this?"
"Little Missy... Little Missy..." Radish seemed to have gotten a chest pain from crying. It said hurriedly while burping, "Quickly... quickly save... everyone! Little Missy is... caught."
The three was stunned. Lonemoon who just came after him stepped forward and said, "You mean Yu Hong? Who was she caught by? Where did the others go? Tell us clearly."
"It's... it's the Demon King!" Radish said hurriedly, "He caught Big Sister Little Hong. Brother... Brother Lan went to chase after him and never came back. So Little Yu and the others... went as well. They said it was too dangerous and wouldn't let Radish come along."
"You mean Little Black caught Yu Hong?!" Lonemoon was shocked. After not seeing him for a couple thousand years, he had grown bolder. He even dared to come to catch people at Invincible Sect.
"No. It's the Demon King." Radish shook its head hard and then nodded. It grew even more anxious and grabbed Shen Ying's sleeve."Little Missy, please hurry up and go to save them. They've already been away for a whole night and still haven't returned!"
"Shen Ying, let's leave quickly!" Lonemoon was anxious, he turned back and called out his flying sword. Chef also started to use spells to keep the unfinished dishes on the table.
"Wait, " Shen Ying suddenly spoke.
"Wait for what?" Lonemoon grew even more anxious."Right now they..."
"Are back."
Huh?
Lonemoon was stunned. He turned to look and saw that a great amount of demonic Qi suddenly emerged from their surroundings and gathered together. The space in front of him distorted, and in the next moment, a one-person tall tear appeared in the air, and seven or eight figures fell out of it. All of them were covered with blood and looked terrible. Especially the person in the front, his body riven with blood, what's more, half of a broken sword was stuck in his chest.
"Lan Hua!" Lonemoon was shocked. Seeing that he was almost falling down, he hurried to reach out and support him.
"Big Sister Little Hong!" Radish was also shocked. With a flash, it changed into human form, turned and hugged the similarly blooded figure behind Lan Hua.
"Lonemoon?" Lan Hua's eyes opened wide as he looked in disbelief towards the person in front of him. The originally gray and dark eyes brightened immediately, "You're here, then Kindness..."
He hurried to look behind him, and the others also turned to look towards Shen Ying. For a time, seven or eight gazes were fixed upon her.
"Hey!" Shen Ying waved in greeting.
In the next instant, the people present looked like they were figures in a freeze-frame. They looked straight at the person in front of them, their eyes opened wide. The looks in their eyes that were that of despair a moment ago seemed brightened instantly, and a faint watery glow appeared in there.
A while later...
"Disciples of Invincible Sect greet the sect master!"

Lan Hua and the party were badly hurt. Besides Yu Hong, whose injury was slightly less, the others either had all the meridians broken or had their immortal bones injured. Lonemoon and Yi Qing put in a great amount of effort, before they could manage to stabilize their condition.
"So what happened?" asked Lonemoon.
Before Lan Hua replied, Yu Hong at his side took a step forward and knelt down directly, her face full of self-blame."It's my fault! I made everyone suffer. Elder, please punish me."
"No! This has nothing to do with Big Sister Little Hong!" Radish grew anxious, came straight forward and attempted to pull her up, but Yu Hong was unwilling to stand up.
"How can this be blamed on you?" Lan Hua also persuaded her.
"How is this related to Yu Hong?" Lonemoon became even more confused as he listened."Your injury... Did Little Black indeed do this?"
"Not Little Black. It was the new Demon King, " Lan Hua shook his head and said, "Little Black is gone."
"What?" There's actually a new Demon King. Lonemoon was stunned.
Lan Hua started describing the recent series of events."We only got to know about the change of Demon King recently. A few years ago, Little Black suddenly came over and passed a low-level Dharma artifact to Yu Hong. Soon afterwards, the Demon King caught Yu Hong and brought her away, forcing her to give up that Dharma artifact. Only when I chased after her did I understand that the Demon King had already changed, and I ended up trapped as well. The other disciples broke into Demon World and used their greatest effort to bring us back."
"What Dharma artifact?" Lonemoon frowned."Why did Little Black pass it to Yu Hong?" For something so important, he should have handed it to Lan Hua, if he had to hand it to someone. What's the matter with passing to Yu Hong?
Lan Hua was stunned and looked at Yu Hong beside him who suddenly looked down. He coughed and said, "That's... the love token between the two of them."
"Huh?"
Love?
With this said, even Shen Ying who was still eating stopped short."Little Black... and Yu Hong?" What kind of strange development is this? These two are actually together! It seemed that they had missed more than a little in these three thousand years.
"Disciples of the sect were often unable to find a practicing partner, " Lan Hua scratched his head and explained, "Little Black often came to visit, and he was a demon... so, uh, could bear much hitting. Yu Hong was the big Junior Sister so she asked him to help with the training, so...
So as the hitting went their love came about? Okay, not problematic at all! In any case, Little Black paid for this girlfriend with blood.
"At first they were about to wait for Kindness to come back before they officially became Dao partners, "Lan Hua gave Shen Ying a look, "But we didn't imagine... that Little Black would go missing just like this."
"It was all my fault, believing that person's lies that there was knowledge as to where Little Black went, and leaving the sect without notice..." Yu Hong's face was full of guilt."That made everyone end up trapped in the Demon World. I..." Before she could finish, she suddenly spat blood, and her figure seemed unstable.
"You're hurt too badly. Focus on your breath and don't move." Lonemoon frowned and stopped her from standing up."I've gotten the gist of the matter. This was indeed not your fault."
"No! It was me..." The regret on her face deepened, and her face actually whitened. Blood flowed out from the corner of her mouth uncontrollably, and even the Immortal Qi over her body started dissipating.
"What happened?" Lonemoon was shocked, as he realized that there was something wrong with her body. He reached out and discovered that the meridians all over her body were broken, and even the primordial spirit started collapsing. How can this be? Her injuries were apparently the lightest. By right, she should be okay after the readjustment. Why did she get even worse than the others?
