Chapter 339 A new deputy city lord appears!

The edible manual invented by Jian Yue spread among the demons.

He received many recommendations, so he was naturally noticed by the City Lord's Mansion. The Eight-Tailed Demon Bird's men soon came to the door. He was a cockscomb with a pointy head and a hairy beard. He lowered his head and said to Jian Yue, "You want to come to our City Lord's Mansion, right?"

Jian Yue said: "Yes."

The Eight-Tailed Demon Bird's subordinate gave a sinister smile and said, "Come with me, let the city lord see you!"

There were other people behind Jian Yue, just in case. Jian Yue followed the people in front of him and walked forward. The sky in the Demon Realm was always dark. He paid attention to his surroundings while walking. The City Lord's Mansion was called the City Lord's Mansion, but it was actually just a huge, towering dead tree. There were many stones and dead branches inside.

When you go in, you can smell the low, depressing and damp smell inside, and the scent of bird life hits you in the face.

A huge wing was undulating not far away, and inside it was an eight-tailed demon bird sleeping. The subordinate said, "City Lord, the people are here."

The voice of the eight-tailed demon bird was very shrill, a typical bird sound. When it raised its head, its entire body sat up. Jian Yue discovered that its entire tail and feathers were black, and its head was very pointed. Its eyes were round with a red glow.

Eyes met.

It was quiet.

Jian Yue hesitated for a long time, then lowered his head and said, "Meet the City Lord?"

The eight-tailed demon bird complained: "Why did they recommend such a skinny demon? It looks like he can't even fly. If he encounters a monk, he will be roasted first!"

Jian Yue: "...Actually, I am also a city lord who knows a little bit about fighting and kicking."

The eight-tailed demon bird narrowed its eyes, shook its wings, and said in a sharp and commanding tone: "Well, you will be my housekeeper. Do you know what this means?"

Jian Yue's expression became more serious and he finally got to the point. It was rumored that this eight-tailed demon bird ate living people alive. It was very troublesome and definitely a tough guy to deal with.

Do I have to catch a living person to feed it?

"I don't know, but the city lord can give you orders." Jian Yue said, "I am willing to serve you!"

The eight-tailed demon bird nodded in satisfaction. It said, "Go ahead and catch some bugs from the demon flame paddle to eat. The previous stewards couldn't catch them well every time. They were really stupid. I don't want to bother with them anymore!"

Jian Yue: "...What?"

The eight-tailed demon bird looked at him impatiently: "What's wrong, can't you do it well?"

Jian Yue stuttered a little, and asked, "City Lord, do you eat this every day?"

"What else?" said the Eight-Tailed Demon Bird, "I am a bird. If I don't eat bugs, what else can I eat?!"

Jian Yue choked up.

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed like crazy when they saw this:

“Hahahaha can’t argue with that.”

"Fuck, when will I be able to stop laughing when watching Butler Wang's live broadcast?"

"In the original novel, the Eight-Tailed Demon Bird was a bird that destroyed an entire sect. It was so evil and tyrannical, and it was also the right-hand man of the Demon Lord in the later period. How could it be so wise in the early period?"

“It always feels like I’m watching a new copy.”

Jian Yue here was much more shocked than the audience in the live broadcast room.

Jian Yue thought about it, and finally said: "City Lord, do you want to change your taste today? Don't you want to eat people?"

The eight-tailed demon bird said, "Bah, what's so delicious about humans? Are insects any good? Human bones are so numerous that they don't taste good at all. Besides, we demons feed on resentment. Why would I eat humans? You're just being idle!"

Jian Yue was silent.

He recalled that in the original novel, the demons and their city lords ate people wantonly, which aroused the anger of the majority of sects. Finally, they attacked the Demon Realm City and almost blew it up. Countless demons were killed, which completely aroused the hatred of humans and demons. The demons swarmed out of the Demon Realm City and wantonly destroyed the major sects and villages on earth.

At that time, the original novel described many cases of magic birds killing people, and also laid the foreshadowing of the enemy between humans and demons. Later, when the Lingyun Sect discovered Jiang Yu's demon bloodline, they wanted to kill him immediately, which made the subsequent tragedies coherent.

Now it seems that there is a problem here! A big problem!!

Jian Yue asked tentatively: "City Lord, do you never like to eat people?"

The eight-tailed devil bird had an expression that said, "Are you crazy?" Its voice was shrill, "Why would I eat people? I hate people the most. I worked hard to build a nest in Nanshan, but passers-by said I was ugly and that my long tail was a bad omen and would bring disaster to them. A group of people rushed up the mountain and burned me to death while I was sleeping. I have only eaten insects in all my years, so why should I care about them? They even burned my beautiful feathers black. Damn it..."

Jian Yue was stunned. He saw that the eight-tailed demon bird was completely black and was curious about why its feathers were this color. It turned out that it was burned to death and it was the resentment that made it return to the demon realm.

The eight-tailed demon bird not far away was still muttering: "Damn it, if it wasn't for the fact that one of those people saved me when I was a kid, I would have gone back and killed them all!"

Jian Yue choked up, then tried to persuade him, "Garlic Bird, Garlic Bird, it's not easy for anyone."

The city lord shook his feathers and said, "Okay, why are you still standing there? Go catch some bugs for me!"

Jian Yue hesitated for a moment and said, "City Lord, catching the bugs is no problem, but I may need some tools. Do you think there is any warehouse nearby?"

The eight-tailed demon bird seemed to have never cared about this matter before, and directly threw a feather to Jian Yue: "Just use my feather, it can open all the doors nearby."

Jian Yue smiled and said, "Thank you, City Lord. I'll go right away."

He left and walked outside. The cockscomb-headed subordinate of the Eight-Tailed Demon Bird was still outside. He saw Jian Yue coming out and said, "Did the city lord ask you to catch bugs?"

Jian Yue nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

The cockscomb-head said, "It means the city lord values ​​you. You have to work hard. Most people don't have this opportunity."

Jian Yue was curious: "Why didn't the city lord let you go?"

Cockscomb said honestly: "I couldn't help eating it myself when I caught it, so I couldn't leave it for it."

Jian Yue: “…”

That's very lifelike.

He observed the houses near the City Lord's Mansion, wondering where Tiantian and the others might be. He went in to take a look, and found that there were all kinds of things in there, including magic weapons and instruments, and straw that birds would like, but there was no one there.

So Jian Yue went to the lava at the back to catch insects. There were some vengeful insects in the river, and he didn't really know how to catch them. Fortunately, his scholar brother, who had been following him, knew how to do it. There was no one else here, and his scholar brother used cards to learn the bird tribe's skills in catching insects, and he caught a lot of them in a short while.

Jian Yue said: "Thanks, brother."

The scholar's younger brother smiled and said, "Why are you being polite? Shall we follow my brother's original plan and put drugs in the food, and then start?"

They had a plan before they came. The scholar was an absolute think tank, and his code was to use any means necessary to achieve the goal. Of course, Jian Yue agreed in order to save people, but things have changed now.

Jian Yue said: "I don't think it's right. There might be something wrong here. The city lord might be innocent. It's not him who killed people."

The scholar's brother was stunned: "Who is that? If it's not the demons, then there must be someone else?"

Jian Yue held the basket, feeling uneasy. It was meaningless to waste time now. He thought for a while and said, "I think the bird is very straightforward. I can't figure it out no matter how roundabout it I am. Besides, wasn't the attack on Demon Realm City in the original novel in these two days?"

The scholar brother opened the plot panel and looked at it for a while and said, "It's the 23rd day of the magic calendar. What day is it now?"

Jian Yue calculated the date, raised his eyes and said, "The 21st."

It was really only two days away. This attack on Demon City could be said to be a historical turning point in the entire original novel. Jian Yue turned around and said, "I can't wait any longer. I have to go now."

He went back carrying the basket.

The eight-tailed demon bird was still sleeping, and Jian Yue said, "City Lord, it's time to eat."

The city lord sat up unhappily, but was happy when he saw the bugs.

The more Jian Jian became, the happier he became. He sat down in front of the Eight-tailed Demon Bird and said, "My lord, there are some things I must tell you."

The eight-tailed demon bird chewed and chewed, then asked, "What?"

"Have any human cultivators come into the city recently?" Jian Yue said, "For example, have they sent you something?"

This is a very difficult clue to obtain. In the original copy, many taskers suffered casualties in order to obtain clues about these monks. However, the audience in the live broadcast room saw Jian Yue ask so directly.

The eight-tailed devil bird ate and said, "I think so. I don't know who sent them here. They were all human. They stunk so badly that I had them thrown into the tree house on the mountain behind. I won't eat them. They are not as delicious as bugs!"

Jian Yue: "...Do you know who sent it?"

The eight-tailed demon bird said, "How should I know? Don't all people look the same?"

Jian Yue was a little worried, he had to find the person behind this trouble, so that he could save Demon Realm City in two days. His purpose was not to save this place, but the two races were fighting, and the new disciples were being assessed nearby, so there would definitely be the most casualties. If he could not stop this, his mission would definitely fail.

Most importantly…

He didn't want the person hiding behind to reap the benefits.

Just thinking about it.

The Eight-Tailed Demon Bird said, "But it seems that they will come again soon. Please send me some food. I will have to deal with them when the time comes! I really don't want to see these people!"

Jian Yue was shocked and instantly knew what to do.

The eight-tailed demon bird didn't know his twists and turns, but the insects on the ground were smiling happily. It immediately stood up and ate the insects, saying as it ate: "You are much more capable than the little chicken comb. What reward do you want? Do you want this city lord to give you one to eat?"

Jian Yue was filled with gratitude: "I appreciate your kindness, Lord City Lord, but Lord City Lord, can you give me a reward in exchange?"

The Eight-Tailed Demon Bird said, "What?"

Jian Yue said in a low voice: "You can reward me with the title of deputy city lord. To be honest, city lord, I have dreamed of becoming a city lord since I was a child!"

The audience in the live broadcast room all thought that Jian Yue was simply dreaming!

Audience comments:

"How is this possible!?"

"This is the Demon Clan, the largest ghost camp in the entire dungeon!"

“It’s a fantasy.”

"Hahahaha, the Eight-Tailed Demon Bird is a villain BOSS. We saw countless casualties before but none of them managed to sneak into the City Lord's Mansion. How could the anchor possibly..."

The next second——

The eight-tailed demon bird swallowed it and said, "Okay! Then will you catch bugs for me in the future?"

Audience: “…”

No?
