dispute
Changyao glanced at Yiwu with a haughty expression, "War God Linghua is taking him too seriously. After all, he is just a casual cultivator. We will have to take over in the critical moment."
Even if they have been trapped for hundreds of years, they are still the orthodox immortal race. Could it be that they are not as good as a casual cultivator in the human world? How is that possible?
Yiwu ignored her, turned around and continued walking forward.
"Qin Mo..." Liu Yu caught up and whispered to comfort him, "Don't take it seriously. She just said it casually. She doesn't really mean to look down on you."
Originally, Yi Wu didn't take it to heart, but he came to explain it, which made her feel a little dissatisfied. "What does that mean? Brother Liu Yu has a good relationship with her, and he even came to help her explain it."
"Don't worry, I have no intention of climbing up the ranks of your immortal clan. I'm just a casual cultivator, how can I be with you immortals? Once we get out of the demon clan, we'll go our separate ways."
Liu Yu could tell she was a little angry, so he quickly explained, "You misunderstood. I wasn't explaining for her. I was afraid of you..."
They walked away, arguing quietly. Ling Hua frowned and reminded Chang Yao, "You usually don't act so impulsively. Why are you targeting Qin Mo?"
Changyao looked at the two figures in front of her, her heart filled with all kinds of emotions and she was quite angry.
"For so many years, everyone in the Immortal Clan knows how I feel about Liu Yu, but what about me?" She pointed ahead and turned to ask, "When have you ever seen him care so much about me?"
"He rarely even talks to me on weekdays, but now not only has he let Qin Mo live in Guiyun's room and taken good care of him, but I didn't scold him just now, and Liu Yu rushed to comfort him. I'm really unhappy."
Seeing Yi Wu and Liu Yu walking further and further away, Ling Hua followed them, "Qin Mo is a man after all. They are just friends."
"What if Qin Mo isn't a man?" Changyao followed him, peppering him with questions. "What if he's actually a woman, and he's trying to get close to us just to get into the Underworld..."
Ling Hua had thought about these questions before. Even when Jun Xuan ordered an investigation into Qin Mo, he also investigated behind the scenes, but found nothing.
Qin Mo and Ming Yuan seemed to appear out of nowhere, and were indeed very mysterious, but now was not the time to pursue these matters.
Ling Hua's voice gradually grew colder. "Changyao, we need Qin Mo right now. If you can't let go of your personal feelings and insist on going against him, affecting our work, then you should return to Ji Ming now."
"I..." Changyao's chest heaved several times, but she finally suppressed everything and quickly caught up.
After leaving the Snake Queen's cave, Yi Wu led them to the Demon King's territory.
Half an hour later, blood eagles began to fly back, one after another. They landed on Yi Wu's shoulders and whispered in her ears.
Yi Wu listened carefully, and when the opportunity arose, she changed direction. "Ten miles to the west, there are several demons returning with newly captured monks. Let's disguise ourselves as Snake Queen's subordinates and find a way to infiltrate their group."
Anyway, the Snake Queen died a long time ago, and the monsters under her command and the other monsters in the monster clan were not all known, so there was no evidence.
A quarter of an hour later, they ran into several other monsters and the three monks from the human world that they had captured.
"Brother, are you guys going back to report to the Demon King?"
Yi Wu approached with a shy face, trying to curry favor with the leading demon, "Can you take us with you? We went out for a while, and just returned to Lady Snake Princess's place, only to find that all our brothers are missing, and we almost ran into the immortals."
"Brother, please take us in. We can do anything you want. We're at your service."
The leading black bear was two and a half meters tall and looked at them suspiciously. "You said you were Snake Queen's subordinates, but why have I never seen you before? You look very unfamiliar."
The demons behind him all cast their eyes over to him and hid the cultivator from the human world they had just captured behind them.
Seeing this, Yi Wu waved her hand and said, "We have only been with Lady Snake for a few years. We usually help with odd jobs and run errands. It is normal that Big Brother has never seen us."
The other side was very wary, so she simply bent her legs, crawled on the ground, and cried, "Please, big brother, take us in. We were almost captured by the immortals just now. Without the protection of a powerful big demon, we little demons will die sooner or later..."
Yiwu knelt, and Liuyu followed suit. Changyao stared at them in shock. Just as she was thinking that she would never kneel before the demon tribe, Ling Hua pinned her down and forced her to her knees.
"Yes, big brother, please take us in. We will serve you wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly until our death!"
"Please, big brother, take me in. If you don't agree, we won't get up today."
Ling Hua imitated Yi Wu, wiping her tears while begging Black Bear to take her in.
They begged for a long time, but Black Bear looked hesitant.
The little demon behind them felt sorry for them and whispered, "Why don't you take them in, big brother? We don't need these few bites of food anyway."
"Yes, big brother, in order to catch prey and bring it back to the king, we have lost several brothers. Just take them in."
"Yes, big brother, with more brothers we can catch more prey."
…
Yi Wu crawled forward a few steps, raised her hand and swore, "Don't worry, big brother. As long as you're willing to take us in, we'll do whatever you tell us to do. And I have an exclusive secret to tell you."
"Secret?" Black Bear showed some interest and beckoned her with his finger. "Tell me about it."
Yi Wu stood up, walked over to him, and pretended to cover her mouth with her hand. Black Bear bent down and listened.
"Hasn't the King been looking for the Demon Saint recently? I know where she often goes. She likes to go to the busiest restaurant in the capital of Wanming Kingdom to listen to storytelling. I used to see her there often."
"The reason Lady Snake couldn't defeat her is because she's practicing some evil magic. I don't know her name, but she's not easy to deal with. If you report this to the king, it will be a great achievement."
Black Bear's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his paw and patted her on the back, laughing loudly: "Good job, you look smart enough. Follow me, Captain, from now on."
Yi Wu staggered after being slapped by him and almost fell to the ground. After stabilizing herself, she quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, big brother, for taking me in."
I didn't hear what she said to Black Bear, but he actually agreed to take them in. Ling Hua quickly followed suit and shouted, "Thank you, big brother, for taking you in."
"Alright, alright, get up, guys, we're still busy on our way."
Black Bear gave Yi Wu a push, asking her to walk with him. "You're lucky to have met me. Of the twelve most capable captains under the king, I, Black Tide, am undoubtedly among the top three. You'll definitely benefit from following Big Brother."
"Brother is so powerful?" Yi Wu spoke in an extremely admiring tone, which made Hei Chao quite happy.
After they passed by, Ling Hua had just gotten up from the ground when Xiao Yao immediately called out, "Follow us! Don't lag behind! Watch out for those guys behind us."
Ling Hua agreed and followed Liu Yu and Chang Yao to the end of the team, secretly observing those cultivators.
The uniforms of the cultivators in the human world looked very similar, and it was hard to tell which sect they came from for a moment. I guess they were not powerful figures, otherwise they would not have been captured by the demon clan.
Another half hour later, they were getting closer to the Demon King's residence, and more and more demons were around. When they encountered others returning with prey, they would form a group and go back to report to the Demon King.
The captains looked at each other and secretly compared themselves with each other.
"Hey, not bad, Black Tide, not only did you capture the monk, but you also recruited a new disciple?"
"That's... what's going on over there? Why did you capture people from the Changling Sect?"
"Ever since Feiqin's blood demon vine was destroyed, the old man from the Changling Sect has been afraid of being discovered by the immortals. He's afraid of death and dares not cooperate with the king anymore. Since they're no longer partners, there's nothing he can't capture."
"I see."
…
Yi Wu listened to them talking while looking around calmly.
Most of those captured by the demon clan were mortals, a few cultivators, two immortals, and three demons. All of them were gagged and shackled. Ropes connected them together, forming strings of varying lengths.
Immortals and demons are the most difficult to capture, so naturally they are the smallest in number.
Yi Wu was thinking when she suddenly turned her head and found that there was someone she knew among the three demons. She looked at him a few more times.
Fang Rui was one of the maids Jiufang Mingyuan had previously assigned to her. Even if she had been transferred from the Winged Demon Palace, she should still be at Cloud Peak. How could she have been captured by the demon tribe?
She silently withdrew her gaze and found that Changyao behind her was frequently looking at the captured fairies.
Ling Hua secretly pulled her, and Changyao withdrew her gaze and continued to follow the team forward.
The purpose of this trip is to infiltrate the demon tribe and gather intelligence. Even if they see their tribe members being arrested, they cannot act rashly and expose their identities.
The demon king built a huge village with tall and short houses arranged in a staggered manner. Under the eaves were hung many skulls of giant beasts, as well as weapons such as axes, hammers, and rakes.
There was a tall watchtower next to the main gate, where little demons kept watch at all times. After entering the village gate, the captains continued forward, heading towards the highest house, while the other little demons turned around and took the prey to the cellar.
Yi Wu had just turned around with her companion Xiao Yao when Hei Chao's voice came from the front, "Hey, you, come here."
The wolf demon from behind pushed her and said, "Big brother is calling you, why don't you go quickly?"
"Oh, okay." Yi Wu trotted over and bent over: "Brother called me?"
"Come on, big brother will take you to ask for the reward." Hei Chao put his arm around her shoulders and took her to see the Demon King.
Yi Wu's heart skipped a beat, and she lowered her head even more. "Thank you, big brother."
She didn't expect to see the Demon King as soon as she arrived. She took a deep breath and restrained her breath.
Ling Hua and the others watched Yi Wu being called away by Hei Chao. They were a little worried for a moment, but they could not act rashly and could only continue to follow the other little demons.
The huge cellar was filled with mortals, demons, and immortals. Almost all of them had their tongues pulled out and could not speak, but could only scream "ah, ah".
There were a few people imprisoned in the demon cell, while the immortal cell was empty, with most of the people in it being mortals.
Ling Hua and the others observed their surroundings calmly, secretly wondering how they could rescue them all.
Yiwu followed Hei Chao up the stairs. The pig demon guarding the gate said that the demon king was meeting a distinguished guest and asked them to wait a moment.
Hei Chao leaned over and whispered a few words. The pig demon immediately went in to report and soon invited Hei Chao in.
The light in the room was dim. Yiwu blinked, quickly adapted to the environment, and secretly looked around.
The demon race wasn't good at building, so they simply used stone and wood to create the necessary items, which looked unobstructed. Voices were heard from inside, and Yiwu happened to be mentioned.
