Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

Just as everyone was on high alert, they received a message from She Yi.

A group of them went to the entrance to greet him.

She Yi felt a wave of sorrow upon returning to the Snake Clan.

He had only been away for a short time, yet he had become someone else’s demon pet. ’How pathetic.’

But his master was right beside him and could destroy him with a single thought. She Yi didn’t dare entertain any other ideas; he had accepted his fate.

”Hahaha, Gong Ye, you’re finally back!”

The Clan Leader, a broad smile on his face, strode forward with his men to greet him.

”We’ve been waiting for you for so long!”

He took a step forward, intending to clap Gong Ye on the shoulder, but to his surprise, Gong Ye dodged. The atmosphere instantly turned awkward.

The Clan Leader’s expression flickered for a moment before he recovered, chuckling as he said, ”Please, come in. You haven’t been back to the Snake Clan in a long time. Everyone has been eagerly awaiting your return!”

With that, he led everyone into the Snake Clan’s territory.

Gong Ye followed the Clan Leader, a smile not quite reaching his eyes. He was curious to see just what kind of scheme the Snake Clan was plotting.

Song Wanning’s clone followed behind, surrounded by several elders.

She Yi instantly grew tense, worried that Song Wanning would be exposed.

’If a fight were to break out, he wouldn’t know who to help!’

Fortunately, Song Wanning’s disguise was excellent. She put on a lifelike performance of being secretly angry and jealous, arousing no suspicion from the elders.

She had managed to pass their inspection.

And so, Song Wanning’s main body, having received the information, began preparations to enter the prison and rescue the person inside.

The Illusion Demon Pill was already refined. She had the Fox Demon take it to test its effects.

Not only was the Illusion Technique’s duration extended, but its realism was also more perfect. An ordinary Cultivator would be completely unable to see through it.

’With my own spiritual pressure added on top of that, those Demon Cultivators shouldn’t be able to detect anything!’

”Wan Ning, this Elixir Pill of yours is amazing!”

The Fox Demon’s eyes danced with excitement, and she became even more determined to latch onto Song Wanning.

’With these Elixir Pills, I might even have a chance to surpass that person in my clan!’

Then she would no longer have to hide and live a life on the run.

After all, who would want to live a life of constant risk and scheming if they could live peacefully?

”I...”

She stared at Song Wanning, her eyes practically screaming the three words ”I want it.”

Song Wanning smiled and patted her on the head. ”Don’t worry. As long as you help me complete this mission, you’ll have your share of Demon Cores!”

She had always been one to clearly distinguish between kindness and grudges. Since the Fox Demon helped her, she naturally had to give her a reward.

”Heh, you’re being too kind.”

The Fox Demon waved her hand humbly, but inwardly she was blooming with joy. She was now full of motivation for the reconnaissance work ahead.

The two of them hurried toward the Hundred Demons Palace, arriving outside its gates at dusk.

As the Illusion Technique took effect, in the eyes of others, Song Wanning transformed into the very image of Gong Ye.

Coupled with Song Wanning deliberately using her spiritual pressure to intimidate them, the Demon Cultivators they encountered only dared to half-bow their heads and salute respectfully.

Meanwhile, the Fox Demon was held in Song Wanning’s embrace, the two of them looking quite intimate.

The disciples didn’t find this surprising. After all, it was hardly strange for the Lord Demon King to bring women back with him.

They passed smoothly through the entrance of the Hundred Demons Palace. Song Wanning’s Divine Sense swept across the area, paying attention to every single disturbance.

But upon reaching the center of the Hundred Demons Palace, they ran into one of Gong Ye’s trusted confidants.

The Fox Demon instantly tensed up. But then she remembered she had taken a High-level Illusion Demon Pill, so there surely wouldn’t be a problem. Her confidence returned, and she leaned against Song Wanning with a seductive look on her face.

”Your Highness, didn’t you go to the Snake Clan? Why are you back already?”

The confidant found it a bit strange, but he was also apprehensive as he asked.

Song Wanning shot him a cold glance, unleashing her spiritual pressure upon him.

THUD—

The confidant dropped directly to his knees, trembling in fear.

”Your Highness! Your Highness, this subordinate did not mean to offend! Please forgive me, Your Highness!!!”

With that, he began to kowtow forcefully, his head thudding against the ground. He was clearly terrified.

”Hmph. I’ll spare you this time. If there is a next time...”

Song Wanning snorted coldly and retracted her aura, but her gaze remained sharp.

The confidant quickly thanked her and then scrambled away, practically wetting himself in fear.

His earlier question had been a purely subconscious reaction; he had completely forgotten that the Demon King hated it most when others meddled in his affairs.

Having been lucky enough to keep his life, he didn’t dare look back, wishing he would never have to appear before the Demon King again.

Having bluffed her way through once more, Song Wanning also breathed a sigh of relief. If not for the fear of alerting the enemy prematurely, she wouldn’t have needed to be so cautious, like a thief in the night.

After this display of power, everyone seemed to sense that ”Gong Ye” was in a terrible mood. As a result, for the rest of their journey, no one dared to approach them.

Everyone kept their distance, heads bowed, hurrying past as if they wished they could disappear from her sight.

They were quite satisfied with this situation. An hour later, they once again arrived at the prison.

The prison was heavily guarded. Even upon seeing Song Wanning approach, the guards remained at their posts by the gate, weapons in hand, completely still.

Just as Song Wanning reached the entrance, another one of the confidants walked over.

”Your Highness, are you here to interrogate her again today?”

The confidant asked with his head half-lowered, respect in his eyes.

But...

His gaze fell upon the Fox Demon with a hint of suspicion. The Demon King had never brought a woman here before.

Sensing the man’s suspicious gaze, the Fox Demon panicked slightly and, without thinking, threw a flirtatious wink at the confidant.

The confidant was so frightened he hastily lowered his head, terrified of being seen by the Demon King.

Song Wanning also sensed something was amiss. Connecting the dots from his question, she replied, ”Mm. This is a Fox Demon, skilled in Illusion Techniques. This King brought her to see if we can make a breakthrough.”

”Without this King’s command, no one is to enter. Understood?”

The oppressive warning made the confidant’s heart tremble.

”Rest assured, Your Highness. With us here, not even a fly will get in!”

He agreed solemnly and immediately cleared a path.

The previously sealed great doors suddenly swung open.

A foul, fishy stench immediately wafted out.

’A Water Prison?’

Song Wanning raised an eyebrow and swaggered inside with the Fox Demon.

Seeing this, the confidant quickly warned the surrounding guards not to let anything go wrong, while he himself stood guard at the entrance, not moving an inch.

As the great doors slowly closed, the Fox Demon’s racing heart began to calm.

Their gazes swept over the figures in the Water Prison cells.

The prisoners were all on the brink of death, covered in wounds. It was clear they had suffered no small amount of torture.

Song Wanning clenched her fists. ’To think that a descendant of my senior would be suffering in a place like this!’

’Thankfully, thankfully I came!’

Song Wanning quickened her pace, heading rapidly toward the location her bloodline connection was guiding her to.

Finally, she arrived outside a cell in the deepest part of the prison.

A person was hanging inside the cell—it looked like a woman!

Her head was bowed, and her hair completely covered her face, obscuring her features.
