Chapter 0916 The Virgin Mary's New Descendants
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons was half lying on a large and soft bed, pillows piled up in layers. The lights in the room were dim, but her skin looked even paler and more fragile, like paper that had been stored in a dry environment for too long. It will break and will be scattered into countless pieces when the wind blows.
She forced her upper body up and insisted on performing her duties: raising her hand to lightly scratch the forehead of the newborn demon baby, occasionally smiling or pinching the baby's face.
The demon servants holding the baby lined up from the bedside to the door, and there was an even longer queue outside. The blessed demon baby was carried out through another door and officially became a member of the big family.
The room was filled with the loud cries of babies. Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons took it for granted and even found a lot of fun in it. "The cries of these little guys are very energetic. They are all good seedlings. Wait... This cry is a bit familiar, like Yes...let me see, sure enough, he looked so ugly when he was born, it must be his seed..."
The big bed is located in the middle of the house. On the other three sides are many descendants of the Virgin, all from Bingcheng. They all look surprisingly the same. They wipe sweat, bring water, and tidy up the bedding for the Virgin at any time. The most important responsibility is to pick up the bed every once in a while. Take a batch of eggs and send them to another room as quickly as possible.
The eggs were wrapped in transparent liquid, like crystal pearls, and were placed in wooden bowls. The demon servants holding them were all cautious and looked at them carefully, treating them as more important than their own lives.
There are five doors in the room, each with its own purpose. Pei Zihan came in through the visitor-only door and stood silently by the wall. No one could disturb the Holy Mother of All Sons at this time.
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons continued to bless the demon baby she had brought. She glanced at Pei Zihan in the corner with her peripheral vision and said, "I saw two babies today. They should be your offspring. They are more like humans and are very cute."
There was no expression on the skull's face, and only two eyes showed obvious embarrassment. Pei Zihan lowered his head, and after a while he said: "It turns out that we were really controlled by the demon species before. I It's really stupid, please forgive me."
"Stupidity is not a sin. Only wise and strong people make big mistakes. Did you make a big enough mistake?"
"I...I knew clearly that I was invaded by demonic thoughts, but I was still willing to be a slave of the demon species. I divided the demon clan into three, six, and nine levels and provoked civil strife. I led the elite demon clan to the imperial capital. I accomplished nothing and became a prisoner. , My mistake..." Pei Zihan didn't know what to say. Admitting that the mistake was big enough was like bragging about being a wise and strong man. Thinking that the mistake was not big enough seemed too insincere, and it was not in line with the facts.
"Mistakes are the way for the weak to survive. Every step we take is paved with countless mistakes, either our own or those of other demon clans. Can you use past mistakes to pave the way?"
"Yes." Pei Zihan thought for a while before answering affirmatively, "Our Lady is not a weakling. You have never been possessed by a demon."
"Haha, that's because I've gone crazy and the evil thoughts can't find a place in my mind. It's not that I'm stronger than you. Talking about the situation in Huangjing, I heard a lot of interesting rumors. Maybe it's too It’s funny, it doesn’t seem real.”
Pei Zihan found that he could never understand the thoughts of the Holy Mother of All Sons. If Mr. Shi of Many Souls and Different Souls was the opposite of Taoism, this banshee was the opposite of the entire normal world. The strange thing was that not only did she not collapse because of this, On the contrary, it is impregnable.
With deep respect, Pei Zihan recounted what he had seen and heard in the imperial capital. The demon species were defeated miserably, Mu Xingqiu was trapped and escaped, the Taoist tradition returned, and the patriarch showed incredible power in this world. This is what he learned. Everything, as for the cause and effect, he couldn't explain clearly.
"Mu Xingqiu, it's a pity that we didn't leave his seed." Our Lady of Wanzi finally completed today's blessing duties and could lie down comfortably. She waved her hand and motioned for the surrounding demon servants to retreat to both sides and receive the invitation. During the time she comes down, she won't lay any more eggs.
"Have you seen the new Patriarch Kun Chaos?"
"Saw it when he first showed up."
"Tell me how you felt at that time."
There was deep shame in Pei Zihan's voice, "Actually, I only took a look. He was glowing all over, with a big beard, a white sword in one hand, and a fire bell in the other. Most of the rest of the time, I lay on my back. I didn't dare to raise my head from the ground. The only feeling I felt was fear. I had never been so scared when I was surrounded by Taoist priests in Pangshan.
"You should be happy about this."
"Happy?"
"Because this means you are a real demon clan."
Pei Zihan was slightly stunned. He had not yet noticed that his behavior in the imperial capital was consistent with that of the demon clan, but not the same as that of the humans around him.
"So, Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying escaped, possibly taking the demon species with them. Mr. Yishi went to see Kun Chaos once, and then he wanted to summon the demon clan to fight humans, right?"
"yes."
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons did not speak for a while, and her pale and fragile skin gradually showed a bit of blush. The demon servants on both sides knew what this meant, and immediately sent various pills in turn. Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons drank them one by one, and her vitality gradually recover.
She got up out of bed and stretched. This time, even Pei Zihan understood the meaning of this move: Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons will not lay eggs for a long time in the future. The last time she stopped laying eggs was on the eve of the destruction of the Ice City, and laying eggs was a big task for her. It is a labor-intensive spell that requires very troublesome preparation in the early stage. Once it is started, it will not be stopped easily. Once stopped, it will take several years to cast the spell again.
At this time, Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons was the weakest. She was standing there swaying. The room was built according to her figure and was very tall. She tried to move her steps, but finally she reached out and put her hand on the head of one of her descendants, using him as a crutch. , "Giving a baby is very tiring, but war is more labor-saving."
"I'm afraid we have no other choice, but the target of the war is not humans or Taoism, but Kun Chaos."
"New Patriarch? The demon race is not his opponent... I mean that Kun Chaos cares about the demon species. It seems that the demon race does not need to participate in it. He can just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."
Our Lady of Wanzi walked toward a door, and Pei Zihan hurriedly followed, keeping a distance of more than ten steps from her.
"Do you need the demon clan?" Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons asked without looking back.
"Of course, I am a demon clan myself, and for the demon clan..."
"No, no, that's not what I meant. I'm asking you whether you need the demon clan for your interests. I hope you can answer truthfully."
Pei Zihan followed and thought for a while, then said: "It is necessary, it is very necessary. Without the demon clan, I would not have an army, and I would not be able to concentrate on my practice. For a single herb, I have to find it myself, not to mention all kinds of herbs." Magic weapon materials.”
"Well, you understand what I mean. Let me ask you again, does orthodoxy need mortals?"
Pei Zihan thought for a while and said, "It means that Dao Tong has no deep relationship with mortals and only chooses Dao root disciples from them. In fact, Dao Tong, like all emperors, needs a lot of materials provided by humans. Just the golden spirit alone - hundreds of Mortals can only produce one or two if they work hard for a year. If Taoist priests are responsible for all these things, it will be a waste of time. "
Pei Zihan suddenly realized the intention of the Holy Mother of All Sons and showed some excitement, "In turn, mortals also need the protection of Taoism. Without Taoism, it is impossible for mortals to establish a dynasty and occupy the best land in the world. The demon clan also needs I, just like I needed the Giant Demon King back then, otherwise, all the demons would be a mess and it would be even harder for them to gain a foothold in this world."
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons has walked out of the room and is slowly moving forward in a high and long underground passage. There are rooms on both sides. From time to time, the cry of the demon baby can be heard. Several houses have no doors and are filled with tiny objects. The translucent giant egg, the fetus inside the egg is vaguely visible.
"What about Kun Chaos? Does he need Taoism and mortals?"
Pei Zihan thought for a longer time, "The moment Kun Chaos first appeared, I had a feeling that all the monsters and humans in the city were in his hands. Life or death was just a matter of his thoughts. But He didn’t kill anyone in the end, and even the demon captives were released, so I think he still needs Taoism and mortals.”
"I saw that light. Rumor has it that it was an ancient spell called Thirty-Three Movements. It penetrated my Niwan Palace and took away my memory. However, I think Kun Chaos may not be aware of my memory. Interested. What I want to say is that he is really, really powerful. He surpasses not one demon or one human, but all of them. I believe that even with all the power of all the Taoists, he will not be his opponent."
"Mr. Yishi said some strange words in the cell. He said... He said that the nine great treasures of Taoism have been secretly taking away the achievements of Taoist priests of all ages, forming... Demonic Tribulation, which has been accumulated so far. It is this power that Kun Chaos has absorbed. , and he also talked about demon souls and so on. "Yi Shijun said too much, and Pei Zihan couldn't repeat it one by one.
"This is the reason why Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying ran away. It's not surprising that Mu Xingqiu did this. He was a strange guy to begin with and couldn't get along with anyone. But Zuo Liuying...even he ran away , it can only mean one thing: Kun Chaos does not need any humans or monsters, and even Taoism is useless to him. He may still be an opponent, and life or death is really just a matter of thought to him. He has reached the state of Taoist perfection and is self-contained, no longer needing any help.”
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons stopped in front of a stone door, and several demon servants worked together to open the heavy door.
"I don't know the specific reason yet. I guess it must be related to the demon species and demon souls. The escape of the two makes all living beings temporarily 'useful', causing Kun Chaos thoughts to turn to 'life'. When will it turn to 'death'? It's just a matter of time." question."
Pei Zihan felt unbelievable. After thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but believe it, "It turns out that it's not just the demon clan that has lost hope."
The stone door slowly opened, revealing a huge cave hall, and Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons stepped in. "Don't Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying have hope? All living beings are different from each other, and each has his own way to save himself. Isn't this hope? Pei Zihan , when you are in a desperate situation, there may be other monsters trying to climb up. Don't give up hope, you are one of the many fathers of the monster baby. "
There are many young demon warriors scattered in the hall, undergoing training. The oldest is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the youngest is only six or seven years old.
When the soldiers saw the Virgin Mary appearing, they all stopped training and gathered together. They had different shapes and appearances. Compared with the descendants of the Virgin Mary in the past, their paternal lines were very different.
"This is a place of hope. My descendants, my warriors, their simple minds are uncontaminated by the world. The thirty-three movements of Kun Chaos have not taken away any memory from here."
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons turned to Pei Zihan and said, "As long as Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying can do something, we will have a chance."
