"Is your father from the Golden Scale Chamber of Commerce?"

Lin Che saw that this slave was not from the Longluo clan, so why did he come here to look for his father?

If it's someone from the Golden Scale Chamber of Commerce, just kill him with one strike.

"No, no, no, my father was killed by the Golden Scale Chamber of Commerce."

The slave quickly begged for mercy and spoke the most crucial words first: "I have an irreconcilable hatred with the Golden Scale Merchants Guild. I heard that it was the City Lord who massacred the entire Golden Scale Merchants Guild. This can be considered as revenge for me. Thank you, City Lord."

After hearing this, Lin Che believed it a little.

The reason was simple: all the members of the Golden Scale Chamber of Commerce were from the Dragon Snail Clan, but the slaves before him were not. Furthermore, he had previously used his righteous energy against the cultivators of the Golden Scale Chamber of Commerce, but it had only suppressed them and hadn't detected any evil energy within them.

The slave before him exuded an evil, dark aura. Enveloped by a righteous spirit, he felt like an earthworm under the scorching sun, suffering immensely.

Lin Che asked again, "What's your name?"

"I don't have a name yet. I'm a slave bought by the city lord, so I don't have a name."

"Before you became a slave? What was it called?"

"Call...call Yuting Thirteen!"

The slaves nearby, upon hearing the name, immediately retreated in fear, expressions of terror on their faces. They seemed afraid to even approach a few meters.

"Yu Ting Thirteen, I seem to have heard of it somewhere." Zhuang Chen murmured. He must have heard of this name somewhere.

Zhuang Hao seemed to have remembered something and asked suspiciously, "A few years ago, the Golden Scale Chamber of Commerce also issued a bounty. At that time, the reward was a full billion. I think it was called Yu Ting or something."

Yuting Thirteen replied: "Yuting Gu. That's my father!"

"Oh, I remember now. The bounty at that time did mention that Yu Tinggu had thirteen sons. You... are one of them?" Zhuang Hao looked at Yu Ting Thirteen, as if recalling the bounty portrait from that year.

Lin Che rubbed his chin. "No, what kind of identity is this? The reward is so much higher than his?"

Now that it had been confirmed, Lin Che casually dispersed his righteous energy.

If he continued to suppress him, Yu Ting Shisan would be crippled even if he didn't die. Even without the righteousness to suppress him, he would definitely not be able to escape.

As the righteous spirit dissipated, Yu Ting Shisan suddenly felt his body lighten and knelt down to express his gratitude:

"Thank you, Lord City Lord, for not killing me. Thank you, Lord City Lord, for avenging me."

Lin Che did not ask in a hurry. He first asked Zhuang Hao and the others to take Yu Ting Shisan into a conch palace next to them.

Then he asked, "You were suppressed by my righteous spirit. It seems that you have a lot of demonic energy. Tell me, what did you do?"

Yu Ting Shisan finally stood up, but now he knelt down again:

"Lord City Lord, please understand. We, the Heavenly Demon Clan, are born with demonic energy. But even with this demonic energy, we do not kill innocent people. Since I was born, I have always lived under the protection of my father, until one day, our family encountered a great disaster..."

"My father was besieged by a coalition of great demon kings, and even attacked by a bodhisattva. He was seriously injured and fled for his life. He originally escaped on the Golden Scale Merchants' ship, but was ultimately killed by the Golden Scale Merchants. Before I could avenge my great vengeance, I had already dissipated my cultivation and suppressed my demonic energy. I truly have never killed a single person."

Lin Che carefully sensed Yu Ting Shisan's aura again and believed his words a little more.

Because he was familiar with this smell.

A few days ago, when he was looking for the Golden Scale Pool, he started digging under the largest Snail Palace and finally dug out a special corpse.

The remaining scent on the corpse was the same as the scent on Yu Ting Shisan's body.

So, Yu Ting Shisan is indeed here to find his father!

However, the remains of Yu Ting Shisan's father are still in his Wanhun Banner... no, in his Renhuang Banner. I wonder if the bones are still there?

"Since I bought you as a slave, you are mine. Since you didn't kill innocent people, I will not kill you. Stand up and speak first."

Lin Che was not a true saint. If Yu Ting Shisan was useless and would attract a group of powerful demon kings, then she might as well just drive him away.

But if it has some effect, you can keep it.

"From what you've said, your father is very powerful, yet you're so weak. You're really bringing shame to the Sky Demon Clan, aren't you? Even if the Golden Scale Merchant Guild is gone now, the other great demon kings chasing you are still alive."

Yu Ting Shisan said quickly, "Lord City Lord, I'm not completely useless. I appear to have no cultivation now, but that's because I've used a true secret technique called [Demon Disintegration]. As long as I find my father's bones, I'll be able to [reunite] again and rival the Great Demon King."

"Really?" Lin Che immediately thought of the pills in the mall. One pill would increase loyalty by 100%.

"Really?! At this point, I'm at my wit's end. I won't hide it from the City Lord. My father's cultivation is powerful. He has received initiations from eighty-one demon Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Even if only a skeleton remains, his cultivation is powerful enough..."

Lin Che's eyes lit up, and he became even more interested.

"Why is there even a demon Buddha thing here? Are the demon Buddhas you're talking about those old monks with bald heads who talk about morality and justice?"

Yu Ting Shisan nodded vigorously. "That's them. We, the Sky Demon Clan, are indeed born with demonic energy. But that doesn't mean we will commit all kinds of evil. It's all those demon Buddhas who are the real wicked ones. We are captured by the demon Buddhas as soon as we are born, and we live with them from childhood."

"They will use Buddhist teachings to destroy our bodies every day and dispel the evil spirits in our bodies. This will allow them to gain Buddhist enlightenment. Even after the evil spirits in our bodies are completely dissipated, they will still not let us go. They will also infuse our bodies with their own evil intentions."

"Within their demonic Buddhas, they can cultivate both good and evil. If they cultivate evil, they can also infuse it into the bodies of our Heavenly Demons. Then, only good will remain in their demonic Buddhas. In this way, their Buddhist teachings will be elevated once again."

"If that were all, we, the Sky Demon Clan, might still be able to survive. But these [Good Thoughts] Demon Buddhas are determined to kill the [Evil Thoughts] in our bodies."

"And because my father's demonic body was strong enough, that group of demonic Buddhas injected eighty-one evil bodhisattvas into my father's body. They then joined forces to kill my father. Moreover, they also killed my mother and twelve brothers in front of my father. They forced my father to go insane and unleash his demonic nature..."

BANG!!

Yu Ting Shisan stomped his foot hard on the ground, his teeth gritting until blood oozed out.

"In the end, my father and I fought our way out. Unfortunately, after all our escape, we were ultimately killed by the hands of the Golden Scale Chamber of Commerce!"

"Please, Lord City Lord, help me find my father's remains. I will be willing to serve you like a slave!"
