Song Shuhang asked the dazed Senior White softly, “Senior White, have you found anything that can contain an inner demon yet?”

He was afraid that if he spoke too loudly, Senior White might be startled and fall to the ground accidentally.

Shuhang no longer had the “decent luck” that he had yesterday. As such, there was nothing wrong with being cautious.

After hearing someone call him, Senior White finally came back to his senses and said, “Hm, I found a few items that might come in handy. I’ll try them out later to see if any of them work.”

After saying that, he used his spatial abilities to reach his arm into his treasure trove, and took out the five items that he thought might be useful.

There was a metal box that gave off a very techy feeling, a white jade bottle, a bag made of silk, a crystal ball-shaped magical treasure, and a simple pot.

“What are you going to do next?” Senior White handed all five magical treasures over to Song Shuhang.

Song Shuhang could not hold so many magical treasures with only two hands, so he had to use his psychic energy to keep them suspended in the air around him—ever since he learned to use psychic energy, Song Shuhang discovered that he could not live without it anymore.

“From a purely rational perspective, I’ve been thinking of taking advantage of the chaos to launch an attack on the Heavenly Emperor. In the end, the two of us are enemies,” said Song Shuhang.

The revived Heavenly Emperor belonged to the camp of the ball of liquid metal.

Senior White’s clone said, ​​”A purely rational perspective?”

The black Scarlet Heaven Sword guessed, “Is it because the Heavenly Emperor has Soft Feather’s face, so from an emotional point of view, you can’t bring yourself to hit her?”

Song Shuhang replied, “No, I mean that thinking from an emotional point of view, it really isn’t right for me, a weakling, to be fighting big shots like her all the time. Against opponents of such a level, it would be much smarter for me to run as far away as I can.”

The black Scarlet Heaven Sword looked at Song Shuhang in shock. “So you have some self-knowledge. I always thought that you were so full of yourself that you forgot that you were a weakling.”

Song Shuhang: “…”

I’m not that reckless.

Senior White’s clone said, “Speaking of which, you’re talking about attacking the Heavenly Emperor while in her Inner Demon Cave. Are you not afraid that she will discover your plan?”

Song Shuhang’s face stiffened, but he quickly regained his composure, “It’s okay, Senior White. I’m just going to conspire openly.”

Regardless of whether the Heavenly Emperor could hear him or not, he would start by talking big. When betting while being broke, you barely risked anything and even had a chance of making money if you were lucky.

When it came to launching attacks, using psychological attacks first was the key.

Senior White asked, “Alright, what are you going to do?”

Song Shuhang replied, “I’m going to cook up the inner demon and then slice it up into inner demon sashimi.”

The black Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, “Do you plan to lure the Heavenly Emperor over for an inner demon banquet? Are you thinking of making her give up on her designs on the scholarly faction by doing that?”

Sixteen smiled and said, “Senior, Shuhang’s plan definitely isn’t that ridiculous.”

“Yep,” Song Shuhang said, “just watch.”

Then, he entered the Inner Demon Cave with the five magical treasures that Senior White gave him floating around him.

The inner demon drawn from Young Master Hai’s clone was still in mid-air; it was crumpled into a ball and rolled around repeatedly.

Senior White and the others followed behind Shuhang.

“Huh?” Sister White Dragon suddenly exclaimed.

She felt that something was missing from this Inner Demon Cave, similar to when other fragments were licked by Song Shuhang’s Inner World.

Senior White mused, “There’s something missing from this fragment.”

“The things that’s missing should have been recovered by the Heavenly Emperor,” Su Clan’s Sixteen guessed.

The Heavenly Emperor had been in the Inner Demon Cave for quite a while. If there was something missing from this Heavenly City Fragment, it should have been taken by her.

“If that’s the case…” Sister White Dragon glanced at Song Shuhang.

Shuhang has been snatching the food from the Heavenly Emperor’s mouth and licking away whatever she wanted to retrieve.

If things were to continue developing in this manner, there would definitely be a battle between Song Shuhang and the Heavenly Emperor in the future.

❄️❄️❄️

Senior White’s clone said, “Forget it, as long as the Inner Demon Cave is still here, its other functions should still be available.”

Song Shuhang nodded, heading toward the inner demon.

In his mind, he began to recall the several suggestions and plans that everybody had come up with during their discussion on inner demon materialization just now.

The black-skinned Soft Feather asked, “Which plan is Senior Song going to use?”

The black Scarlet Heaven Sword seized the opportunity to say, “I still feel like my initial suggestion was very good. I don’t have the ability to eat, but the black-skinned Soft Feather does.”

The black-skinned Soft Feather said firmly, “I have a name, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword. Besides, I would never agree to going through with that plan of yours.”

“I’ll try each of the plans we discussed before,” replied Song Shuhang calmly. As long as you kept your calm, everything would go well.

He would absolutely not let Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword continue to deceive him on using the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ on it.

This was a good way of teaching it a lesson.

The black Scarlet Heaven Sword had been provoking him all this time and rending his heart. The best he could do when faced with these provocations was to remain as calm as possible. Over time, he would definitely develop the character of a reliable and stable senior by doing so.

He believed that this was the correct way to make use of the black Scarlet Heaven Sword.

“Let’s get started,” said Song Shuhang. By using his will, he transferred out a set of kitchen utensils from the Ancient Heavenly City’s Canteen No. 111 back in the Inner World.

Inner demons were generally invisible. If it was not for the Scholarly Sage’s eye, Song Shuhang would not have been able to see them. Moreover, inner demons, which were abstract and illusory, could not be touched under normal circumstances.

At this time, it was time for the five magical treasures that Senior White had given him to show their worth.

Song Shuhang used the five magical treasures to capture the inner demon in mid-air. Out of the five magical treasures, two of them worked.

The silk bag and that simple pot could both contain the inner demon.

Song Shuhang thought for a moment and chose the bag. He returned the remaining four magical treasures to Senior White’s clone.

The soft silk bag was much more suited for what he was planning to do.

“Now, time to try out the first plan.”

Song Shuhang pressed the bag containing the inner demon onto the chopping board and attempted to process the invisible inner demon through the bag.

After a while, plan one failed.

The volume of the inner demon in the bag had also shrunk slightly.

“Time for plan two. I hope that this inner demon won’t be consumed before I finish processing it,” Song Shuhang said.

Sixteen thought for a while, then turned to Senior White and said, “Senior White, we thought of a total of seven plans a while ago, which one do you think is the best?”

Senior White’s clone said, “Huh? I was in a daze before, so I didn’t hear any of them.”

Sixteen said, “Senior White can pick any number you want.”

“Wonderful!” Song Shuhang praised.

Sixteen is really resourceful.

Senior White said, “Then how about… six?”

“Understood. I’m skipping straight to plan six.” Song Shuhang began using the sixth plan they had thought up for the inner demon materialization.

Soon enough, the inner demon in the bag materialized successfully.

Great!

Next, it’s time to slice this inner demon up and prepare the seasoning.

After that, all I need to do is to summon Senior Ruler of Shadows using the little cup…
