Chapter 221 Banquet Guests 2.0

The dancers and musicians belonging to a faction called Ghost Market did not hesitate to obey orders.

The musicians continued playing instruments and singing, while the dancers gracefully returned to their home turf.

As for the guests, they were to keep their eyes and noses closed and resolutely not get involved in any power struggles that were likely in the higher realms of spirits.

Although they cooperate with the Ghost Market, it's none of their business. Even if it's shut down, it won't make a difference to them, since they can't beat them anyway.

Therefore, all factions tacitly reduced their presence.

The music started, the dance began, and Su Yu was satisfied.

What title, Your Excellency? I've never heard of it and don't know you.

He's the kind of person who, even when his banquet is interrupted, will still politely negotiate with people. Oh, he doesn't seem human anymore, so is he a non-human species?

Of course not.

The Ghost Lord ignored the two intruders, and the Ghost Market's subordinates followed suit, with the patrol team that had initially given chase also retreating.

Upon seeing this, Sang Er glanced at Yu Ronglan beside him.

Since the Ghost Lord was of high status, the Demon Lord sent his two relatively well-known subordinates to find him.

Of the two demons, Yu Ronglan was better at putting on an act and saying nice things.

Yu Ronglan maintained her smile, bowed to the Ghost Lord at the head of the table, and said very naturally, "It seems that the Ghost Lord has other important matters to attend to. I was being presumptuous and am willing to apologize on behalf of the Ghost Lord and the brothers and sisters of the patrol team. I just wonder if there will be an opportunity to discuss this with the Ghost Lord after the banquet?"

The uninvited guest knew better than to be so rude. Su Yu shifted his gaze over, secretly pondering how to see the guest off.

He didn't want to talk to them, especially the one who was speaking; his smile was too fake, and he looked like he needed to be taught a lesson.

...That's a bit strange. He wouldn't dislike someone for no reason, so is there something wrong with this guy?

After all, this person didn't seem to know him.

Su Yu's eyebrows suddenly twitched behind the mask, and she activated telepathy.

Yu Ronglan's apologetic voice reached his ears:

Su Yu's first reaction upon hearing this was, "What the hell is this, Demon Lord?"

Then, in the next instant, he remembered the ghost market-related information he had dug out and read, and he remembered that the name of his current non-human species was Demon.

Demon Lord, is that the leader of the demon race?

That seems like something you absolutely can't afford to offend.

In human territory, he also had to prevent the two demons from exposing their identities and taking him with them.

Su Yu nodded, and Liao, the manager beside him, immediately sent a servant to arrange seats for the two unexpected guests.

The seats at the lower level were arranged according to the power relationships in the spirit world, so Yu Ronglan and Sang Er were placed in a position surrounded by several leaders.

Sang Er was extremely restless, and he sent a telepathic message to Yu Ronglan:

Yu Ronglan remained silent for a moment before sending a telepathic message back:

Sang Er couldn't hold back any longer and said to his colleagues:

Yu Ronglan fell silent.

To be honest, the moment he saw this ghost master, he had the urge to turn around and run away.

If I don't run away, I always have this feeling that I'm going to get scammed.

But they had a mission to find the Ghost Lord, and reality didn't allow them to escape.

So he calmly said:

Judging from their strength, the one who should be directly speaking to the Ghost Lord should be the Demon Lord, but since the Demon Lord's family has gone to find someone, they had no choice but to send the two of them.

The Ghost Market is known for its absolute neutrality, and adhering to the strategy of using force if verbal negotiations fail, the Demon Lord lent them the Devouring Void Sword to enhance their martial prowess.

The Devouring Void Sword is currently in Sang Er's storage ring, which was obtained after he had managed to coax this ancestor into the Ghost Market territory with great difficulty.

Sang Er nodded calmly, and after finding a reason for his inexplicable guilty feeling, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He touched his storage ring and was stung by the demonic energy released by the Devouring Void Sword, which seemed to dislike him.

Yes, the power is undiminished, which makes me feel more at ease.

Seeing that the two demons had settled down among the humans, Su Yu, despite wearing masks, smiled and raised her wine cup to them: "Welcome, new friends."

Yu Ronglan and Sang Er exchanged a glance, raised their exquisite wine cups on the table in return, and then downed their drinks in one gulp.

Su Yu paused for a moment, lifted her mask slightly, covered her face with her sleeve, and took a sip of tea.

Yes, he doesn't like drinking alcohol, so there's tea on his seat, just in a wine pot and cups.

The tea leaves had been filtered out beforehand, and the tea soup had a slightly yellowish color, which was not much different from the color of the wine used this time unless you looked closely.

As soon as he finished his drink, a pretty waiter immediately brought him a wine pot to refill it.

Yu Ronglan and Sang Er relaxed considerably. At least the fact that the Ghost Lord was willing to drink this sip meant that they weren't prepared to completely antagonize him.

Just as the atmosphere was peaceful, a patrolman from the ghost market entered through a side door, hurried to Su Yu's side, and bowed to report, "Master, another demon has broken in."

Su Yu gritted her teeth under the mask: ...What? What a coincidence? Are you all here for a team-building banquet at the Ghost Market?

Before he could utter a sound, the doors to the banquet hall were forcibly opened once again.

Their efficiency seems to be higher than the previous two, and their strength is also greater.

Su Yu glanced at the two demons, then looked back at the gate: "What brings you here?"

The visitor uttered two low, hoarse words: "Looking for someone."

It's like he forced the second word after saying the first one.

That should be looking for the demon.

They seem to be demons too.

Su Yu stood up and pointed to Yu Ronglan and Sang Er below: "They're your people, right? You can take them away, just remember to pay compensation."

Yu Ronglan and Sang Er below were terrified.

Good heavens, why is the Demon Lord here? Shouldn't he be looking for his little demon lover? He can't possibly be in the Ghost Lord's territory, haha. Is he going to fight and snatch the demon from the Ghost Lord? No, this is the Spirit Realm, so he's snatching a person—? ??

They probably didn't do anything unnecessary!

Ghost Lord, don't point at them. Even if they die, they could never be the Demon Lord's little demon lovers—if they dare to admit that identity, the Demon Lord will really tear them apart!

Although the Demon Lord never said what he was looking for, according to the private discussions among the Demon Palace's subordinates, they all believed that the Demon Lord looked heartbroken and was most likely looking for the runaway Little Love Demon.

Feng Huaijin's gaze swept around the hall before settling precisely on Su Yu.

With a fixed chain in place, he can sense the exact location.

However, since Sang Yu the Second Demon went straight to the Ghost Market as soon as he entered the Lower Spirit Realm, he was still a step ahead of him.

The ghost master was dressed so tightly that he couldn't find the fixed chain on his body for a moment.

But it's good that the devil has been found.

His burning gaze fell on Su Yu and didn't move an inch: "Found it."

It's confirmed. He's slightly weaker than him, but with a little effort, we can capture him directly.

As for the person pouring him wine, he will never see them again.

Feng Huaijin couldn't help but give the servant a particularly gloomy look.

Attendant: ...Oh, a suitor of the Demon Lord.

He upheld professional ethics, poured the tea, and then returned to his original position.

Just as Su Yu's brows were about to furrow, she suddenly felt the chain around her ankle vibrate violently.

So this guy was the pervert who put the anklet on him?!

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this demon was wearing a necklace, proving it was no ordinary demon after all.

The evidence has been added again.

Su Yu's cold gaze swept across the entire room, and she said in a flat tone, "The banquet is over. Please go back, everyone. I have some private matters to attend to at Ghost Market."
