Chapter 493 The Demon Clan Who Stirred Up Trouble
Rong Xuan normally takes a month to refine a human puppet, depending on the puppet's craftsmanship and the rarity of the materials. There is no upper limit to how long it can take.
Because this body was made for Jiu Meng, no one dared to be careless.
First, there was the divine stone given by Emperor Yao, which the strange fire of the mortal realm could not melt, so they could only seek help from the Emperor's decree.
Although the emperor had no choice but to accept the imperial decree, he had to reluctantly serve as a "fire-tending boy" for the time being.
Fortunately, he only had to control the fire during the initial smelting process.
Once the material has melted and solidified, he only needs to maintain the fire at a constant temperature before he can leave.
The rest is up to Rongxuan to carve himself.
The emperor was not very clear about the intricacies of the matter, only watching Rong Xuan occasionally lift the lid of the cauldron and throw in different spirit stones and materials.
The original white, dazzling divine stone in the cauldron was gradually melted into a snow-white liquid through the refining process of the phoenix fire.
The stone that Rong Xuan threw in afterward melted as soon as it hit the cauldron.
All sorts of spiritual materials melted together, and the liquid in the cauldron was almost full, looking very similar to the texture of skin.
The emperor couldn't help but mutter, "Could the puppets you created be made of solid flesh?"
"If we combine all of these, how do we fill in the internal organs and meridians of the body?"
Rong Xuan calculated the time it would take to put down the various materials. When he heard the imperial edict ask a question, he smiled and said, "First cast its outer shape, and I will slowly carve out the internal veins later."
"The project ahead is quite large."
The emperor saw that he was confident and assured him that he was at ease.
Remembering that Rong Xuan was Yun Yici's senior brother, he softened his tone: "It's nothing, I was just asking out of curiosity."
“I have two more of the kind of stones that Jiu Meng picked out. You can try them out slowly.”
Rong Xuan observed the color of the spiritual liquid in the cauldron and said to Di Zhao, "Senior Di Zhao, it's almost ready."
"Just maintain the current firepower. You should go and rest. Thank you for your hard work."
After thinking for a moment, the emperor left a message talisman for Rong Xuan before departing.
"Call me if anything happens. I'll have Rinyu come over and keep an eye on things later."
After leaving the weapon-refining room, the emperor went to find Lin Yu to ask him to come and help Rong Xuan, but he found no one there.
The emperor simply ordered them to go directly to the council hall where everyone had previously held their meetings.
Jiu Meng had previously stated that no demon dared to stop him on his way here.
When they arrived at the council hall, as expected, everyone, including Jiu Meng, was there.
The emperor strode directly into the council hall: "What are you talking about?"
Jiu Meng's attention was drawn to the sudden imperial edict: "My body is already refined?"
"Not yet, this is just the first step. Rong Xuan said I could leave, but I thought he couldn't manage on his own, so I wanted to ask Lin Yu to go over and help keep an eye on things."
Rinyu, whose name was called, paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'll go over and keep an eye on it now."
"If anything happens, please come and let me know."
The emperor looked at Yun Yici, who replied, "It is Gu Ruo's matter."
“That day, I cut off Jiu Meng’s arm. Many demons saw it, and the news spread.”
“Gu Ruo took the initiative to contact Jiu Meng, saying that he wanted to deal with us together.”
The emperor snorted coldly: "It seems I still didn't teach him a lesson last time."
Jiu Meng frowned and said, "In fact, he has already arrived."
"His main purpose in coming here was to find out about my situation and find an opportunity to make a move."
“Your entry into the city that day caused quite a stir; it couldn’t be kept secret.”
“Gu Ruo has been spreading rumors that I was kidnapped by the human race, and has won over many forces that originally belonged to me.”
The emperor didn't take Gu Ruo seriously at all: "He's just a clown. Let him come, and he'll never leave alive."
Shen Huaichuan glanced at Jiu Meng: "I'm afraid your so-called influence didn't just turn against Gu Ruo because of his one-sided story."
"It's because you lost in front of everyone that day."
Demons are inherently more inclined to admire and follow the strong than humans and monsters.
Jiu Meng said, "I know this matter better than you do, but I think it's a good thing to weed out those who are indecisive."
Shen Huaichuan: "In the mortal realm, when wolves are tamed into dogs, the most unruly and ferocious wolves are often killed, while the docile ones are used for breeding."
"In this way, generation after generation, they can be naturalized into dogs."
Jiu Meng pursed her lips and remained silent.
After a long pause, she finally said, "Maybe I'm just too stupid. I can't think of a way to have the best of both worlds."
"them......"
"When I first took human form, I saw a witch give birth. The demon child, whose eyes were not yet open, began to eat its mother's flesh and blood raw."
"The witch twisted the demon prince's neck with one hand, completely disregarding her own bloodied body."
"I will never forget that scene; I brought disaster upon them."
"If I don't change them, the entire demon race will be like hell, endlessly repeating the same cycle."
“I can’t take away their fertility, and I can’t just stand by and watch them go on like this.”
