Night falls in the Monster Forest.

Six people and two animals sat in a circle, feasting.

Xiao Ningyun's face was covered in oil as she ate, mumbling indistinctly, "Delicious...this snake meat is so delicious, I want to catch a few more later."

Jin Xiao stood on her shoulder, also chewing on a small piece of meat, enjoying it immensely.

"Junior Sister." Chen Ping'an's mouth was stuffed full, and his words were muffled. "Your little brain is so clever... You managed to get so many good things from Peak Master Danchen."

"With so many good things added, it really tastes delicious." Chen Daoxuan nodded in agreement.

Although Han Bingli and Su Qingruo couldn't stop eating, their table manners were much more elegant compared to the others.

A whole pot of snake meat was devoured by the six people and two beasts in just half an hour.

Xiao Ningyun patted her round belly, looked at Ling Yunzhi and said, "Junior Brother Yunzhi, quickly serve me a bowl of soup, I want to drink snake soup."

Ling Yunzhi smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll serve you some right away."

Han Bingli nodded and said, "That's right, everyone should drink the soup! All the essence is in this pot of soup. After you finish drinking it, everyone should refine the enormous spiritual power within their bodies."

Meanwhile, two of the three great demons not far away were drooling as they smelled the aroma wafting over.

One of the great demons was trembling with fear.

A seventh-tier Crimson Flame Tiger turned to look at the eighth-tier Devouring Python beside it and asked, "Devouring Python, what are they eating? It smells delicious."

The eighth-tier seven-tailed fox looked at the trembling Devouring Python and said, "Brother Python, why does this aura give me the feeling that they're eating snake meat?"

The Devouring Python's voice trembled as it spoke: "This...this aura, they...they must have eaten my clan's Little Demon Emperor."

The Crimson Flame Tiger and the Seven-Tailed Fox simultaneously looked at the Devouring Python and exclaimed in unison, "What? They ate your Devouring Python clan's little demon emperor?"

The Crimson Flame Tiger finally understood why the Sky-Devouring Python was trembling all over.

The seven-tailed fox swallowed hard and muttered to itself, "Luckily, fox meat is rather gamey and not very tasty."

Before he could finish speaking, suddenly...

With a whoosh!

The space in front of them suddenly trembled, and a terrifying suction force appeared without warning in front of the three-headed demon. The entire space was distorted in one direction.

The seven-tailed fox's expression changed drastically: "Oh no, we've been discovered!"

It tried its best to break free from the suction, but it was no use; the suction was too strong.

They finally realized that the other party had actually discovered them a long time ago, but was just too lazy to bother with them.

The three-headed demon flew uncontrollably forward, finally crashing heavily in front of Han Bingli and the others, causing the three demons to grimace in pain.

"Oh, so it's the Seven-Tailed Fox, Crimson Flame Tiger, and Devouring Python clan, all powerful demons from the battlefield the day before yesterday."

"How dare you cause trouble here? Are you sneaking around trying to gather information?" Han Bingli's terrifying aura crashed down on the three great demons.

The three demons screamed and were instantly pinned to the ground, unable to move.

The seven-tailed fox, having realized what was happening beforehand, disregarded her pain and hurriedly cried out, "Lord Divine Phoenix, and a few young heroes, it's all a misunderstanding... a misunderstanding!"

"The three of us were sent by the clan chief. We have something to say to Lord Shenhuang and the young heroes."

Upon hearing this, the group frowned slightly, looking at the three-headed demon on the ground with puzzled expressions.

Han Bingli asked sharply, "What does your clan leader want with you here?"

The seven-tailed fox spoke with difficulty, "This... this heroine, could you please release us? We have something to say to you."

Han Bingli looked at the three great demons on the ground, pondered for a moment, then withdrew her oppressive aura and said sternly, "If you three can't give a reason, I'll throw you three into a big pot and stew you."

Upon hearing this, the three-headed demon trembled in fright and quickly stood up to carefully examine its surroundings.

Seeing the cautious look on the little demons' faces, Jin Xiao raised his little paw and instantly sealed off the entire space: "Don't look anymore, I've sealed off this space. Just say what you have to say. If you dare to play any tricks, I'll wipe out your three clans."

Upon hearing this, the three great demons were so frightened by Jinxiao's words that their legs went weak, and they knelt down in unison. The seven-tailed fox hurriedly said, "Lord Divine Phoenix, how could this lowly demon dare to deceive you? It was truly our three clan leaders who sent us here."

"Our clan leader sent me to tell Lord Shenhuang and the young heroes that our three clans are willing to submit to the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect and help you fight against the Dragon Emperor."

Hearing the Seven-Tailed Fox's words, Han Bingli sneered: "Hmph! What? Yesterday you were thinking about how to kill us, but now that you realize you can't beat us, you want to surrender?"

"Also, how did you know we were from the Myriad Laws Sect?"

Upon hearing Han Bingli's words, the Seven-Tailed Fox shrank back in fright and cautiously continued, "Heroine, as far as we know, only the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect in the entire Xuanhuang Continent possesses the Divine Phoenix."

"And what you said, it really wasn't our intention. It was all ordered by the Dragon Emperor. We were forced into it."

"Our five major demon clans were living peacefully here for tens of thousands of years and never had any conflicts with the human race. But with the birth of the Dragon Emperor, we had no choice but to submit to him."

"But as soon as the Dragon Emperor was born, he arranged for us to attack the human race one after another. If we disobeyed, we would die. We had no choice! Since Lord Divine Phoenix appeared last night, our clan leader knew that the young heroes and Lord Divine Phoenix were from the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect. That's why he sent the three of us little demons to submit."

Ling Yunzhi snorted coldly: "Hmph! Your demon race has killed so many of our humans these past few days, and now you think you can just surrender like that? It's not that simple."

"Young hero, our clan leader said that after surrendering, our three clans are willing to offer the Emperor Sect spiritual herbs, medicines and minerals from the Demon Beast Forest every year. Our three clan leaders also said that if the Emperor Sect does not believe us, our three clans can swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao that we will never betray the Emperor Sect."

"Oh? Why is it your three major demon clans, and not five?" Han Bingli questioned.

Upon hearing this, the Seven-Tailed Fox quickly explained, "Heroine, our three clan leaders did not inform the clan leaders of the Soul-Devouring Sparrow and the Primordial Wild Bull because the Divine... Divine Phoenix killed the elder of the Soul-Devouring Sparrow, and it is now plotting how to deal with you."

"And then there's the Bull Clan Chief. He's naturally warlike, and he gets most excited when attacking humans. Moreover, he's extremely devoted to the Dragon Emperor and would never submit to humans. If we inform them, they'll definitely tell the Dragon Emperor about it."

"Our three races do not wish to wage war against the human race. We only wish to live in the Demon Beast Forest. We beseech Lord Divine Phoenix and the young heroes to accept our three races' allegiance."

After saying this, the Seven-Tailed Fox, the Crimson Flame Tiger, and the Sky-Devouring Python all kowtowed three times.

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances.

Ling Yunzhi spoke first: "Junior Sister Bingli, what do you think about this? Should we accept their submission?"

Han Bingli pondered for a moment, then spoke softly, "We can't possibly kill all the demons in the Demon Beast Forest. The karma would be too heavy, and it wouldn't be good for our cultivation. We can observe the performance of the three races before making a decision. If they behave well, taking them under our command would be a good option. Letting them manage the Demon Beast Forest properly in the future would also be good for the human race."

Upon hearing this, Su Qingruo and the others nodded in agreement.
