Oni Lord flew swiftly with Star Dance and constantly changed directions. After confirming that he couldn't be caught up to, he suddenly turned and descended, using a secret pathway to directly reach the 18th floor!
"Hehe!" The King waved his hand, destroying the magic seal on the secret pathway, causing it to cease to exist!
"Even if you all want to catch up to me, you still have to come down layer by layer! Even if you use the teleportation array in Demonic Capital, you can only arrive at the 15th floor!"
The King arrived at his true secret lair, a hidden cave!
"Heh! This is the 18th floor! Even if those guys can come down, they wouldn't be able to survive until they reach me! The only entrance to the 18th floor from the 17th floor is thousands of miles away! In this 18th floor, there are countless demon emperors! If those little girls here come down, it can only be said that they've thrown themselves into a trap! Hahaha! After they are captured by other demon emperors and humiliated, I will go and buy revenge from them! But for now, the most urgent matter is to recover from my injuries!"
The King entered his cave, a very dark, damp, and hot place, lacking any grandeur. After all, this was the deepest 18th floor of the realm of demons, and most of the powerful demons who appeared here were demon emperor-level beings. There wasn't much to pay attention to.
The King placed Star Dance on the ground and couldn't help but gulp when looking at her.
"This woman is really exceptional! She seems more charming than my wife! Originally, I intended to use her as a hostage, but I didn't expect that she could also help pass the time! However, my vitality is damaged at the moment, so I can't engage in any activities casually. I'll properly train her once my vitality recovers! But I can't just leave her alone. If she runs away, it will be a big loss!"
The King took out a collar made of ancient beast skin and put it on Star Dance's neck. Then, he used a set of dragon tendons to tie her up, with one end tied to a stone column next to his feet!
"These are collars and ropes that even a demon sovereign cannot escape from. Hehe, this woman will never be able to escape even if she wakes up!"
As a precaution, the King also set up an invisible energy gate at the entrance of the cave. Now, Star Dance couldn't escape at all.
So the King closed his eyes and focused on healing, paying no attention to Star Dance.
After a long time, Star Dance slowly woke up.
She found herself inside the King's cave. Her whole body trembled as she lowered her head and realized that although her clothes were slightly messy, they were intact. It seemed that there was nothing unusual about her body, and she hadn't suffered any abuse from the King!
She sighed in relief. If she had done something to betray Xu Chen, she would rather choose death!
Due to the humid and stuffy atmosphere in the cave, she was already sweating beads all over her body. There was a faint smell in the cave that she couldn't describe, which made her blush and breathe a bit irregularly.
She noticed that the burly King was lying in the cave, already fast asleep. Evidently, he was still recovering from his injuries. Star Dance wanted to sneak attack him but quickly gave up on the idea.
The King's strength was overwhelming, and even if she used all her strength to attack while he lay down, her little hands wouldn't be able to kill him anyway!
She gently got up, wanting to escape, but she found her neck trapped by a collar made of ancient beast skin. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remove it, and she couldn't even reach the entrance of the cave as the rope on the collar tightened!
Star Dance tried to use her weapon to cut the rope quietly or destroy the stone pillar without making any noise, but she couldn't do it...
"This damn King... actually tied me up with a rope..." Star Dance felt extremely humiliated! However, at this moment, she had no power to resist the King, and he would eventually wake up!
What should she do?!!
"Snore... Ahaha!"
Just as Star Dance was worrying, the King shifted his massive and heavy body and woke up!
As soon as he woke up, the King sat up and looked at Star Dance, his eyes filled with lust. But suddenly, he felt empty in his stomach and became infuriated! This was the 18th floor, where small monsters couldn't enter, and he had no servants to serve him!
The King glanced at Star Dance and asked in a coarse voice, "What's your name?"
Star Dance didn't want to answer, but she was currently in a very vulnerable position. Everything was in the hands of this evil demon. Resisting him forcefully was obviously not a wise choice, and it would be unfair to Xu Chen. She definitely couldn't let herself be humiliated by him, but if she were to end her life like this, Xu Chen would be devastated! Therefore, she could only navigate the situation cleverly. Star Dance knew that her strength was far inferior to the King's, but her intelligence might not be lower than his!
"Star Dance," Star Dance replied indifferently.
"You are a beautiful woman! I have traveled through countless magical realms, seen numerous women, but there are only a few as beautiful as you, I can count them with one hand!”
Star Dance remained silent.
The Ghost King asked again, "Can you cook?"
"Huh?"
