"Of course it's a monster. How could our Lord Suzaku have any human friends?" The Bone Monster said firmly.

"Then what is his true identity?" Lan Ziye asked.

The Bone Demon shook his head again and said, "I don't know about that, but I know his strength is not inferior to our Lord Suzaku, so... I can't detect his true form!"

Lan Ziye thought for a moment and then asked, "So what's the difference between his visit this time and the previous ones?"

The Bone Demon tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "The roads on Phoenix Mountain are very difficult to travel. Every time he came here before, he would stay in the town for a while, waiting for Lord Suzaku to send someone to pick him up. But this time, he drove straight up the mountain. If my companions on the mountain hadn't told me that Palace Master Jin was coming, I wouldn't have known!"

"Did your companions tell you how many people came this time?" Lan Ziye asked.

"I don't know. My companion is a titmouse. She told me that Palace Master Jin drove up the mountain. The car windows were tightly closed, so the people inside couldn't be seen at all. The car immediately drove into Lord Suzaku's palace. In fact, we can't be sure whether Palace Master Jin was in the car or whether it was actually Lord Suzaku's car. It's just that Lord Suzaku has only had Palace Master Jin as a good friend for so many years, and Lord Suzaku has been the only one to visit Lord Suzaku, so we all think it was Palace Master Jin!"

After saying that, the Bone Demon looked towards Lan Ziye cautiously, observing his expression, and asked tentatively, "I've already told you everything I know. That potion..."

Lan Ziye pushed the potion in front of the Bone Demon and said, "Thank you so much for what you did today. The questions I asked you today are known only to you, me, heaven, and earth. Please don't spread them!"

The Bone Demon grumbled inwardly: He's not stupid. If Lord Suzaku knew he'd shared so much about Phoenix Mountain with outsiders, he'd definitely punish him. He was just wondering how to ask this girl to keep it a secret, and now that she'd offered to keep it a secret herself, why not?

The Bone Demon nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry! I will keep my mouth shut!" As he said that, he raised three fingers seriously and made an oath.

Lan Ziye nodded and said, "Okay, it's time for me to go up the mountain!"

"You still want to go?" The Bone Demon looked at Lan Ziye in disbelief.

"Of course, I just said that I'm going to look for someone. I haven't found the person yet, so how can I just not go?" Lan Ziye said with a smile.

The Bone Demon curled his lips. This matter had nothing to do with him and he didn't want to get involved in this mess.

Then, the Bone Demon stood up and said, "You can find the way to Phoenix Mountain by yourself, right? Then I won't see you off!"

Lan Ziye nodded and walked out of the wooden house.

Zeng Li was overjoyed to see Lan Ziye come out safely, and hurried over to ask, "Miss, are you okay?"

Lan Ziye curled his lips and laughed, "Do you think I look like I'm in trouble?"

Zeng Li smiled happily and blushed.

"Okay, without further ado, I'll go to Phoenix Mountain first. You can find a place to rest here?" Lan Ziye said.

After a pause, he continued, "Or I can help you talk to that Bone Demon and find a place for you to rest."

Zeng Li was terrified when she thought of the White Bone Demon's disgusting appearance. She quickly refused, "It's okay, Miss. I'll just rest in the car. Don't worry about me!"
