Hell, run away, the little milk baby is coming to the underworld again.

Chapter 1601 The Only Thing

The Great Protector stood outside blankly for a long time, without going crazy like he had with the demon soldiers guarding the area.

He didn't just randomly hit the air.

They were keeping a close eye on those locks.

They didn't lock the first lock that had been opened.

I wonder what she was thinking there.

After Huo Lichuan and Di Mo entered the Ruyi Bag, they could no longer see what was happening outside.

Seeing that Xiao Yanbao was staring intently at one spot, he asked, "What's going on outside? Has the Great Protector left?"

"No, she's been staring at those locks the whole time. I wonder what she's looking at?"

"I guess they just can't figure out who has the ability to open that lock."

"Is she going to just stay here and stare without leaving? How are we going to unlock the other locks then?" the flute demon worried.

Xiao Yanbao felt that the Great Protector wouldn't stay here watching forever.

If they are really worried, they might move the people inside to another location.

Little Yanbao was a little annoyed; how could the Great Protector have found out?

If we go to another location, it might not be so easy to find.

But Xiao Yanbao wanted the Great Protector to move the people inside away.

That way she could confirm whether the person locked inside was her master or not.

Xiao Yanbao still wanted to confirm whether the person locked up inside was indeed her master.

If it weren't for their master, even if they got in, it would have been all for nothing.

But judging from the Great Protector's tense appearance, even if the person locked inside isn't Master, it must be someone very important.

The reason the Great Protector had been standing there was because she had just sensed that aura again.

But that aura vanished in an instant.

She couldn't understand why that aura always disappeared so quickly.

They couldn't find out the direction they fled.

Fortunately, it's easy to get into the Demon Cloud Palace now, but it's not easy to get in either. Without her warrant, you simply can't get out.

She'll keep looking; she refuses to believe she can't find it.

Although only one lock was opened, the Great Protector was still uneasy and went inside to take a look.

Seeing that all the serious criminals inside were still there, she locked the first lock again and left.

Xiao Yanbao: Just like that, you left? You didn't even need the demon soldiers guarding you.

Xiao Yanbao started to have doubts again: was there really an important prisoner being held here, or not?

However, Xiao Yanbao's doubts were quickly dispelled.

Another group of demon soldiers arrived.

The demonic soldiers that came this time were completely different from the demonic soldiers that had just vanished into thin air.

It looks quite sophisticated.

"Sister Yanbao, the Great Protector is still guarding there."

"No, they've already left, but another batch of demon soldiers has come to guard the area."

Huo Lichuan wasn't worried about the demon soldiers; he was worried that the Great Protector would discover him again when he tried to unlock the door.

"Is there any way to open all nine locks at once?"

Di Mo stared at Huo Lichuan with wide eyes.

I don't know who's being stupid.

If it can be opened in one go, then what's the point of having nine locks?

Xiao Yanbao also felt that this possibility was very small.

At most, it's about increasing the unlocking speed, or figuring out how to unlock without the Grand Protector noticing.

The latter is the most reliable.

How can we unlock the door without the Great Protector noticing?

Di Mo immediately shook his head, "I don't know. I just found out myself. Even if the Great Protector isn't here, she can still find out if we unlock the door. So when we go out to unlock the door, won't the Great Protector still find out? What are we going to do?"

Huo Lichuan: He didn't know either.

"You know the most about the Demon Realm here, so it's natural to leave the task of figuring out a solution to you."

Flute Demon: If we entrust it to him, we'll have to see if he has the ability.

They really think he's omnipotent.

"I can only tell you what I know. As for a solution, I can't think of one. You are a descendant of the Palace Master, so you should think of a solution yourself."

Huo Lichuan: His mother is the palace master, but he did not grow up in the demon realm and knows basically nothing about it.

"Brother Huo, don't you have any knowledge about your bloodline in your inherited memories?"

Huo Lichuan didn't understand what Xiao Yanbao meant at first.

"What can your blood do?"

Huo Lichuan: What can blood do? It can unlock doors, didn't we already know that?

As for what else I could do, I really don't remember.

The Demon Flute slapped his forehead. "I know what's going on."

The flute demon really put in a lot of force this time, and with a loud slap, it startled Xiao Yanbao.

"Get to the point. Why are you hitting yourself?"

"But what exactly do you know?"

"I know why the Grand Protector noticed when it was unlocked."

Xiao Yanbao and Huo Lichuan both looked at Di Mo, "Then hurry up and tell us."

"Because the magic mirror Huo Lichuan used wasn't his own; he stole it from Xue Shuang. That's why the Great Protector discovered it immediately."

Huo Lichuan: He's not from the Demon Realm, so where would he get the magic mirror?

Unless his mother left him her magic mirror, but there was no mirror among the things his mother left him.

Xiao Yanbao could tell from Huo Lichuan's eyes that he didn't have the magic mirror.

"Where do you demons get your magic mirrors?"

“Every demon is born with one; it’s like an identity card.”

"If it's something you're born with, then why do different demons see different things in their magic mirrors?"

"Although the magic mirror is something you are born with, it will upgrade as it grows, and some may even be passed down through families."

Upon hearing that the magic mirror could be passed down through generations, Xiao Yanbao looked at Huo Lichuan again.

"Your mother really didn't leave you a magic mirror?"

Huo Lichuan nodded firmly, "Perhaps my mother never intended for me to return to the Demon Realm."

Xiao Yanbao felt it was wrong. Even if she didn't want Huo Lichuan to return to the Demon Realm, she should still pass on what was meant to be passed on to him.

“Magic mirrors don’t all look the same. The more advanced the magic mirror, the less it looks like a mirror. Did your mother leave it to you that you don’t recognize?”

The Demon of the Flute also believed that Huo Lichuan's mother had passed the magic mirror to Huo Lichuan.

"Do you know what the highest-grade magic mirror looks like?" Huo Lichuan asked, looking at Di Mo.

The flute demon shook his head. "I haven't even had the chance to get close to the palace master, how could I possibly know what the highest-grade magic mirror looks like? But I do know that the guardian's magic mirror is a bracelet worn on the wrist."

Xiao Yanbao and Huo Lichuan: A mirror is a mirror, why make it into a bracelet on your wrist?

Xiao Yanbao then looked at Huo Lichuan: "Did your mother leave you anything? Of course, I don't want to pry into your secrets, I mainly want to find out if there is a magic mirror inside."

Huo Lichuan knew, of course, that Xiao Yanbao wasn't after his things.

Huo Lichuan reached into his robes and pulled out a silk handkerchief.

Xiao Yanbao glanced at Di Mo: Surely this handkerchief can't be the magic mirror, right?

The Demon Flute also felt that the handkerchief couldn't possibly be the Magic Mirror's.

Huo Lichuan opened the handkerchief and took out a ring from it. "This is the only thing my mother left me."
