C1280 Schedule

Suo Ling and the demons under his command were naturally full of energy as well. They were the same as the other demons, searching for Ai La with all their might.

Half a day later, they suddenly heard an abnormal sound coming from the dense forest not far away.

"It can't be that Ai La made that noise, right?" Some of the demons could not help but exclaim in joy.

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, we have to go and take a look." Some demi-humans replied in this manner.

"Right away." Suo Ling nodded, then led his group of demon clan members to touch a direction.

Since they knew that Ai La's subordinates were all dead, and that Ai La was already alone, so many of them did not fear Ai La at all. In their eyes, Ai La was as good as a steamed bun.

After walking for the time it took an incense stick to burn, they didn't find anything out of the ordinary.

Wasn't that Ai La's voice? They couldn't help but frown.

At this moment of disappointment, they discovered a wild rabbit not too far away. When the wild rabbit saw them, it immediately turned around and fled.

He only subconsciously followed, but very quickly, he heard his surprised voice coming from his direction.

Suo Ling and the other Spirit Demon beings followed him quickly.

"What are you making a fuss about? Did you discover something?" Suo Ling asked as he walked.

"Pavilion master, there's a hole here!" The demon said.

Underground hole? Suo Ling and the other Spirit Demon beings hastened their pace.

Soon, they arrived at the place where the Monster race was. Then, they really did discover a hole in the ground.

As the hole was covered by plants and vegetation, it was extremely well hidden. If it wasn't for the fact that the demon race had followed them, they wouldn't have noticed it at all.

Taking a closer look at the cave, Suo Ling realized that the cave was not small.

"Pavilion master, what's wrong?" The surrounding demons could not help but ask.

"Shh!" Suo Ling could not help but make a gesture of silence.

The entire demon clan immediately quieted down.

"Follow me." After a moment, Suo Ling said softly.

Then he jumped into the burrow, and as soon as he entered the burrow, he found himself staring at a flight of stairs leading down.

This situation made all the other demons even more surprised.

When they reached the end of the stairs, they discovered that there was a small cave. In the middle of the cave was a stone table, and on this stone table was a strange flame that was faint blue in color.

Not only that, there was a lotus flower underneath it.

"This is the demonic fire Prince Wei Li told us to get!" The demon clan members that reacted immediately shouted.

It was the demonic fire! Suo Ling confirmed it in his heart as well.

Since the demon fire was here, then Ai La was definitely inside, thus Suo Ling did not rush over immediately.

Amidst this sound, a strange gale suddenly rose up in the cave. Amidst this gale, countless pieces of rock and sand flew into the air, causing the cave, which originally had a bit of light, to immediately become pitch black.

Suo Ling and the other Spirit Demon beings could not help but squint their eyes.

Suddenly, Suo Ling discovered that there was a shadow rushing towards him. Suo Ling was startled, he immediately struck out with his palm.

At this moment, he could clearly see that the other party was igniting a stream of demonic flame.

It's Ai La! Suo Ling shouted in his heart.

"Bam!"

With the palm strike, Suo Ling was immediately pushed back.

When he stood still, he discovered that the figure had already charged towards the demonic flame in the middle. He then directly picked it up and ran towards the other exit.

"Quickly chase!" Suo Ling could not help but shout anxiously.

As he spoke, the other Monster race members had already caught up.

Suo Ling quickly followed behind them.

What surprised Suo Ling was that there were actually many caves connected to each other, so they could only look for Ai La inside like headless flies.

After a while, he realised one of his subordinates was fighting against Ai La. It was unknown if it was because he had more people or what it was like, but Ai La seemed to have panicked a little and was actually hit on the demonic lotus by his subordinate's palm.

The demonic lotus did not fly out. There were only a few petals on it.

However, that subordinate of his had suffered, and was directly sent flying by Ai La's palm. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.

After that, Ai La turned and ran, while the rest of the demons naturally followed closely behind.

However, this time, they were unable to catch up with Ai La, and quickly lost him. They searched all over the underground cave, but they couldn't find Ai La at all.

After that, they discovered the other two exits. Very clearly, Ai La had already left through one of these two exits.

Suo Ling and the other demons could only give up regretfully.

"Where are the fallen petals?" Thinking about the flower petals that had just been knocked off, Suo Ling couldn't help but ask his subordinates.

"Hall Master, the petals are here." A Goblin Tribe member quickly passed the petals to Suo Ling.

Suo Ling realized that it was only three pieces.

"Regretfully, I was unable to obtain the demonic flame, so I could only give the flower petal to Prince Wei Li." Looking at these three petals, Suo Ling said regretfully.

Although he didn't know that Prince Wei Li wasn't interested in these petals, he could only do so now.

Only after that did Suo Ling remember his injured subordinate from before. He then walked towards that subordinate.

His subordinate was none other than Lin Long.

"Chen Xiao, how is it? Are you alright?" Suo Ling asked.

To be honest, he was surprised that Lin Long was able to stand up. After all, Ai La's palm attack just now was not weak.

"It's nothing. Even though I was injured quite a bit, the Fu Wenjia on me saved my life." Lin Long replied.

"That's good." Suo Ling said.

"Chen Xiao is lucky, if Ai La had used that thread of demonic fire just now, even with Fu Wenjia, he wouldn't have been able to withstand the attack, and would have definitely died on the spot." Some demi-humans replied in this manner.

"Yeah." The other monsters also nodded.

"Chenxiao, this is the great fortune of misfortune." Suo Ling also nodded his head, after that he also patted Lin Long's shoulder, and praised, "Chen Xiao, if not for you risking your life to slap Ai La just now, I'm afraid we wouldn't have even been able to get these petals."

"Head, this is what I should do." Lin Long said.

"Chenxiao, don't worry. I'll report it to Prince Wei for risking your life to do so." Suo Ling laughed.

"Thank you, hall master." Lin Long immediately thanked him.

After that, all the demons immediately left the cave, and Suo Ling then directly gave these few petals to Prince Wei Li.

Suo Ling did not go alone, but brought Lin Long and the other two Goblin Tribe members.

Soon, they met Prince Wei Li.

The moment he saw Prince Wei Li, Suo Ling immediately said, "First Prince, we found Ai La in a cave. Unfortunately, he escaped, and we only left a few petals of the demonic lotus."

"Why did he run away?" Prince Wei Li could not help but be disappointed, and then took the petals from Suo Ling's hands.

If he looked carefully at these petals, he was sure that they had indeed fallen from the demonic lotus.

Naturally, he was even more disappointed.

"Suo Ling, tell me the details of what happened at that time." Prince Willy added.

Suo Ling immediately explained in detail what happened at that time.

"First Prince, why did Ai La place the demon fire on the ground?" After he finished speaking, Suo Ling asked with doubt.

Actually, it wasn't just him who was puzzled. All of the other demon clan members that went with them were also puzzled. However, at that time, when would they have the time to ask why?

"Presumably, Ai La was just thinking about refining the demonic fire when all of you suddenly barged in, causing such a scene to occur." Prince Wei Li directly said.

"That should be it." When he said that, Suo Ling and the other two demon race members naturally realized what was happening.

"Although you did not catch Ai La, nor get that Demon Flame, your performance was not bad. When we return, I will reward you." Prince Willy added.

"Thank you, first prince." Suo Ling and the rest of the Spirit Demon beings replied happily.

At this time, Prince Wei Li turned towards Lin Long and said, "Chen Xiao, you did well this time.

Just now, Suo Ling had also explained in detail about how Lin Long would fight with his life, and leave these petals behind.

"Thank you, first prince." Lin Long also thanked him.

"Alright, you guys continue searching for Ai La." After that, Prince Wei Li said this.

Suo Ling and the rest of the demons immediately returned to their original place to continue searching for Ai La.

But how was it possible for them to find it, because that Ai La was disguised by Lin Long, and the one holding the demonic lotus in his hand was the rune puppet.

First, Lin Long disguised himself as Ai La, and at the very last moment, released his rune puppet s, making them disguise as Ai La while holding onto the demon fire.

In other words, Lin Long had personally acted out a play for the Spirit Demon beings to see.

Because Lin Long was strong, these Spirit Demon beings could not see any flaws at all.

The reason why Lin Long did this was to get the attention of Prince Wei Li. Fortunately, the result of the matter was not as he had expected.

He achieved his goal by spending only three petals that were of little use to him.

Even after looking for another ten days, they still could not find Ai La. In the end, they could only withdraw.1

Compared to the second prince, Rowan, Prince Wei Li was considered lucky because he had obtained the petals of three demonic lotuses.

Although it was a petal that fell from the top of the demonic lotus, it was still very useful.

Over the next two days, Rowan obtained some information from who knows where. He said that Prince Wei Li had obtained three lotus petals and immediately came to him, insisting that Prince Wei Li share one of them with him.

How could Prince Wei Li agree? In the end, he could only helplessly leave.

After that, the two Princes still tried to track down Ai La's whereabouts, but naturally, there was no news of him at all.

After seven or eight days, Suo Ling suddenly asked him to go with him to see the Prince Wei Li.

Lin Long knew that the matter that he had planned so hard had worked, because Prince Wei Li's actions clearly showed that he thought highly of. This way, he would have the chance to get close to the forbidden grounds of Nanchuan City or even enter the forbidden grounds.

Immediately, Lin Long followed Suo Ling to see Prince Wei Li.
