Chapter 50 Return the little demon king to us!
An Nian shouted excitedly and pressed the little mouse tightly with the book.
The little mouse squeaked, "Let me go! Let me go!"
An Nian would not listen to it, "I won't! I finally caught you. Tell me! What is your purpose in coming to me? Do you want to do something bad?"
After struggling for a long time, the little mouse was exhausted and could only pant and plead, "I'm here to find the Little Demon King!"
"Little Demon King?" An Nian pondered for a moment and continued to ask him, "This is the fairyland, where is the little demon king? Aren't all demon kings in the demon world? So why are you, a demon, in the fairyland?"
"Wait, are you demons planning to invade the fairy world? Are you the first to invade?!" An Nian felt that he had discovered the truth.
But the little mouse got angry, "You are the one invading the fairy world! I really came here to find the little demon king! I smell the little demon king's scent here, I must bring the little demon king back to the demon world, otherwise the demon world may really invade other worlds."
"You lying little mouse, I'm going to take you to my master." An Nian didn't believe it, so he grabbed its tail and hung it upside down, preparing to go out to find his master.
"Stop! What I said is true!" The little mouse's four paws dangled in the air in panic, "There's an internal conflict in our demon world!"
An Nian paused and bowed to the door, "Master."
Xie Buyu, dressed in white pajamas, walked into the house in the moonlight. The cold moonlight shone on his back, and there was a drowsiness in his eyes as if he had not yet woken up.
He nodded, then looked at the little mouse in An Nian's hand and asked, "What's going on in the demon world? Are there mice in your house?"
The little mouse immediately retorted, "You are the mouse! Your whole family are mice!"
"?"
Xie Buyou was stunned and felt his mind was a little confused. The mouse was talking?
Then I realized that this was the fairyland, and it was normal for animals to become spirits. Monsters needed to be able to quickly transform and high-level spirit beasts to be able to speak. However, there was one exception, that is, monsters born in the demon world, whether they transformed or not, they could speak.
Xie Buyou saw through its cultivation level at once. The cultivation level of this little mouse was not high. It was not even close to the point where it could transform into a human form, let alone a human form.
"Are you from the demon world?"
Xie Buyou thinks this is the only possibility.
Before the little mouse could say anything, An Nian complained, "Master, this mouse sneaked into my room and said it was looking for some little demon king, but where is the little demon king in our Wan Dao Sect? It must be lying to us!"
"I didn't lie to you!" The little mouse's voice suddenly rose. "There is an internal conflict in our demon world! The demon king was seriously injured, and the little demon king disappeared. Now many high-level demons are eyeing the position of the demon king."
"At present, the Demon King is still trying to suppress them, but the Demon King's injuries cannot be recovered, and his cultivation has been declining. If we can't find the little Demon King, I'm afraid the position of the Demon King in the Demon Realm will change hands!"
"Other demons are not as peace-loving as our demon king. After ascending to the throne of demon king, they might immediately invade the human world. By then, it will be too late!"
The mouse told them everything, just to bet that they would believe it.
But it still felt a little uneasy because the man the boy called master had hit it with a fruit core this morning.
It was obviously hiding very secretly at that time, but the other party found its position accurately. What a terrifying perception.
Xie Buyou, not knowing that he was called a 'terrible person' by the little mouse, asked An Nian to put down the mouse.
"Put it down. If this is true, then the demon world is very likely to invade the human world."
An Nian put the little mouse on the table, afraid that it would suddenly run away, and kept his eyes fixed on it.
The little mouse didn't care about all that. When he saw that he was being put down, it knew that the two people in front of him believed what he said.
The little mouse cried with joy, squeaked a few times, and then began to wipe his tears. He said to Xie Buxu: "Can you return the little demon king to us?"
This was really offensive. What did it mean to return the Little Demon King to them? He had never even seen the Little Demon King, right?
Xie Buyou pressed the mouse's head against the table with one finger and said to it with a cold face, "Are you suspecting that we have hidden your little demon king?"
The little mouse was frightened by Xie Buyou's sinister expression and trembled. "I, I, I was just asking."
"Really? Your tone doesn't sound like a question." Xie Buyu said with a hint of threat in his eyes, "If you don't tell the truth, I will hand you over to others. Others are not as easy to talk to as we are."
"I was wrong, I was wrong!" The little mouse apologized immediately, "I shouldn't have wrongly accused you of hiding the Little Demon King. I just smelled the scent of the Little Demon King on this mountain!"
An Nian added fuel to the fire, "That's what it told me too."
"I really didn't lie to you at all!" the little mouse shouted anxiously, "Please believe me!"
An Nian was speechless. "I have lived here for a while and have not seen any small animals, let alone your little demon king. If you want to make up a good story, you should make it sound better. I believe that you are here to investigate the invasion of the fairy world in advance."
After hearing An Nian's words, Xie Buyou suddenly remembered that there was indeed a rabbit raised on the mountain, but he had never seen the rabbit speak?
"How did you get into Wandao Sect?" Xie Buyu suddenly asked it.
The little mouse blinked in confusion, "How else can it get in? It just ran in!"
Otherwise, can it still fly?
But Xie Buyou didn't think so. The Wandao Sect had a barrier that only the people of the Wandao Sect could pass through unhindered. If it were anyone else, they would be sensed by Mo Wanli. So Mo Wanli knew the existence of this little mouse, but just let it go because it was not a threat?
Seeing the little mouse so confused, Xie Buyu told it the truth, "This mountain did have a small animal, but it was a rabbit. Is your demon king a rabbit?"
"Rabbit?" The little mouse was obviously confused. "I don't know. Our demon king is not a rabbit! The little demon king is even less likely to be a rabbit! Is there something wrong with my sense of smell?"
Seeing this, Xie Buyu looked at the little mouse in silence and said, "How good can a mouse's sense of smell be? It would be better to get a dog instead."
Xie Buyu said as he grabbed the little mouse by the tail and threw it out the door, "Don't disturb my apprentices' rest, including me."
The little mouse fell into the grass and stopped moving. Xie Buyou turned to An Nian and said, "Don't stay up late to read. It's not good for your health. You still need to rest. Only when you get enough sleep can you have energy tomorrow."
Xie Bu yawned immediately and said, "I'm going to sleep now. Good night."
After watching Xie Buyou leave, An Nian obediently closed the book, blew out the candles, ran to the bed and went to sleep in the moonlight.
…
In the past two months, in addition to teaching An Nian, Xie Buyu would occasionally go out, either to see the father and son or to visit Xie Nan.
Xie Nan said that he was planning to go to the demon world. When Xie Buyou asked why, he just said that he was annoyed by those monks who were always chasing him, and he also wanted to avoid meeting someone who knew him one day and affecting the reputation of Wandao Sect.
The fairy world and the demon world are not connected, and the voice transmission talisman cannot transmit sound. Since Xie Nan went to the demon world, Xie Buyu temporarily cut off contact with him.
There is no way. Although the demon world is dangerous, Xie Nan is strong enough to protect himself. As for why he chose to go to the demon world, maybe it is because it is not convenient for him to kill monks? After all, the more people he kills, the more people will chase him.
The demon world seems to respect strength. Even without the Demon Lord, there will be powerful demons to manage the demon world. At the same time, because there is no Demon Lord, the demon world will be weaker than the fairy world and the demon world. The human world is included in the protection of the fairy world, and the demon world dare not act rashly.
As for the demon world, although there is a demon king, the current demon king does not like killing, so the four worlds have maintained a delicate balance.
As for Ye Feiyu and Ye You, every time he went there, he clearly said that he would only stay for two days, but every time he was forced to stay for several days before leaving. When leaving, the father and son would not forget to cry.
The way he cried was like that of a bereaved family.
Tang Fengshan has been very busy recently, and seems to be preparing for the new recruit competition. This time, the new recruit competition is held in their Guiquan Hall. Xie Buyu has taken a look. Many arenas have been built on the wide open space, so that many people can compete at the same time.
Tang Fengshan just said a quick thank you to Buyou and then left to continue commanding the disciples in the hall.
You are becoming more and more like a hall master, Xie Buyou exclaimed.
Unlike him, even if he became the sect leader, he would most likely be like Mo Wanli, a hands-off manager who would do nothing but manage the sect.
It's a pity that he won't have this opportunity.
The recruitment came as expected, and all those cultivators who wanted to join the immortal sect but had no channels came in droves. Among them were some mortals in the human world who were capable of cultivation and had been enlightened by the nobles.
The higher the level of cultivation, the longer a person can live. Compared to the several decades of life of ordinary people, what they yearn for more is naturally immortality.
In order to cultivate An Nian's independence, Xie Buyou let him register on his own. An Nian's small figure was drowned in the crowd. In order to ensure that An Nian would not be bullied by other monks with higher cultivation, Xie Buyou would of course contact him from time to time.
There were three rounds in the competition, and more than half of the people were screened out in the first round.
The ring is only used in the third round to determine the final rankings.
In the huge crowd, even if someone was eliminated, they were reluctant to leave, wanting to see who would win the next competition.
One monk was watching the excitement while chatting with another monk beside him, "I remember that the first place in last year's recruiting competition was Xie Buyou, right? I wonder if he will come this time?"
The cultivators around him also sighed, "At that time, everyone laughed at the fact that the leader of the Wandao Sect accepted a child from the human world as his personal disciple, but they didn't expect that he would be tested to have extremely high talent that day, and won first place in the grand competition at the age of twelve."
"You know, Xie Buyou is much slower than those who were born in the Immortal Realm. Those born in the Immortal Realm can practice cultivation almost from birth. At the same age of twelve, others practiced for twelve years, but Xie Buyou only practiced for two years."
"So genius is indeed immeasurable!"
The other party agreed and said, "As expected, the leader of the Wandao Sect has a keen eye for talent." He suddenly added, "I remember that the eldest son of the leader of the Guijin Hall, Tang Fengshan, was defeated by Xie Buyou and became the second. Is it a shame to lose to someone born in the human world?"
A man suddenly jumped out from behind the two and said, "How can losing to a genius be considered a shame? It's just that Xie Buyou is too good."
