Chapter 5 — Counter-Scenario Goddess

When was Phong Ly replaced, or was he a clone from the beginning, what was his purpose, and what role did I play in it... I closed the coffin lid, exhaled a heavy breath, the matter of the Demon World installing a clone into the Fairy World was no small matter, it seemed like I had to make a trip to the Demon World. To Minh was also seriously injured that day, his meridians were broken in several places, and he was in a coma for two months. Only recently did he get a little better. He heard that he would come with me to the Demon World. He didn't ask any more questions, just respectfully agreed. Tham Du has often visited To Minh recently, her skinny face has become much paler. This time I also brought her along. With the female lead by my side, finding the male lead will probably be easier. Before leaving, I also specially stopped by Van Bao Lau to choose a magic weapon for the two of them. They thought it was to hunt down Heaven-level magical beasts. Phong Ly fought with them and died. Although he didn't say it, he was filled with anger. For many years in the Demon World, the clans have been divided and always in a state of no one, but in recent years, a particularly powerful person has appeared, tending to unify the entire Demon Realm. The aura of the puppet skin is very special. As soon as I entered the Demon World, I released my consciousness everywhere, and finally found a clue in a demon palace. It's a good thing to say, that demon palace is the residence of the rising Demon Ton. This trip I did not hide my identity, as soon as I set foot in the demon palace, the Demon Clan came out to welcome me. Truc Thang is Ma Ton's confidant. When he saw me suddenly arriving with two immortals, he also showed confusion and fear. When I said I was only looking for puppet skins, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Puppet skins in the Demon World are also extremely rare. I'm afraid only my Demon Venerable can have this. It's just that Demon Venerable has been in seclusion for a few months, we don't know where the seclusion is, if the Divine Monarch wants to get it, I'm afraid we'll have to wait for someone to come out of seclusion."

“No rush.” I took a sip of tea and casually asked, "Puppet skin was originally fought over between worlds. Your Demon Venerable also has the ability. I haven't been to the Demon Realm for a long time. I really don't know when the Demon Realm will appear like this."

Truc Thang heard that and became even more arrogant, puffing out his chest with pride, "There's nothing hidden from the Divine Monarch, our Demon Venerable is truly of extraordinary strength. Back then, people came from a place like Vo Vong City to kill all the way through, a demon sword single-handedly killed several Demon Lords. Until now, the most noble one is the Demon Venerable, who in the Demon World dares not to fear it?" Truc Thang really couldn't keep his mouth shut. He poured out all of Ma Ton's stories, including the story of his childhood because of his half-fairy, half-ghost bloodline and was laughed at by the Demon Clan. Next to Tham Du, he listened in fascination, while To Minh looked at Truc Thang who was foaming at the mouth and frowned slightly. Leaving the demon palace, Tham Du couldn't help but ask, "Lord God, didn't we come to the Demon World to investigate Heaven-level magical beasts? Why are we looking for puppet skins?" I didn't hide it, and answered directly: "The person who died that day was just a clone, not the real Phong Ly." Tham Du's eyes widened: "What?! So where is the real Phong Ly? Is he an insider from the Demon Clan?" To Minh also frowned, but still shook his head, "He is a natural born bone, he cannot be from the Demon tribe." The clone made from puppet skin is an exact copy of the real thing, Phong Ly's immortal bone cannot be faked. Tham Du still doesn't understand: "Then why did he have to use a clone to appear? Was that death not an accident but a pre-arranged one?" Besides, puppet skin isn't something only Demon Venerable has, what is the relationship between him and Demon Venerable?" To Minh: "Truly suspicious." I looked at the two people who were full of thoughts and laughed softly, "Okay, let's go back to the inn first. I will investigate Phong Ly's matter clearly. You just need to listen to my arrangements." Seeing that, the two people's expressions softened a bit. Returning to the inn, Tham Du completely lost his calm appearance like when he was in the ghost palace, his face was pale and extremely weak. The demonic realm is dense with demonic energy, which is inherently different from the practice of the immortals. Usually, the first time you come, you feel unfamiliar, like what ordinary people say, "water and soil cannot be overcome." Before leaving, I prepared medicine for both of us. Tham Du slumped down on the table, weakly looking at To Minh reproachfully, "Why are you okay?" To Minh calmly sipped her tea, her expression neutral, "It's probably because you're physically too weak." I gently placed my finger on Tham Du's forehead to transmit some spiritual energy, feeling the warm spiritual energy circulating around my body. Tham Du gently breathed out, "Thank you, God." To Minh lowered his eyes and looked at my hand placed on Tham Du's forehead. He didn't say anything, just quietly stood up and left the room. It was just that as soon as he reached the door of the inn, there was a fierce fighting sound downstairs, accompanied by screams and cries. My face suddenly turned cold, I flew down the stairs, Tham Du also quickly followed. Downstairs, I don't know when it was chaotic, dozens of masked Demons were surrounding and attacking To Minh, people in the restaurant panicked and fled, the opponent's strength was clearly not ordinary, To Minh had to be careful not to hurt innocent people, temporarily resisting was extremely difficult. A wave of vanguard blew the crowd out the door. I swung my hand and slammed the door shut, turning around and kicking a masked man in front of me. When I actually fought, I discovered that this group of people was not ordinary, almost all of them were at Heaven level, dozens of people attacked at the same time, every move was a killer move, even I was a bit struggling. To Minh was covered in blood, the tip of the sword was close to the neck of a masked man, his voice was cold, "Who are you, why do you want to kill us?" The masked man did not answer, just desperately tried to counterattack. To Minh did not hesitate anymore, his face was as cold as ice and slit his throat to kill him. My sword also pierced the chest of a masked man, only to see his hand stop, his eyes still fixed on me, cold and emotionless, without wavering.
