Chapter 169 The Revenge of the Demon Tribe
After seeing these capybara monsters and knowing their temperaments, Xie Liuyin and Yunxuan left with peace of mind.
After getting the Five Elements Spirit Crystal that he wanted, Xie Liuyin had no idea where to go next.
She and Yunxuan returned to their flying magic tools and flew aimlessly for a while before they suddenly remembered that they had not seen Princess Luo for a long time.
It just so happens that Yuxing City is not too far from Quege City and is also on the way, so why not take this opportunity to go and see her.
Xie Liuyin discussed it with Yunxuan, and they decided to head towards Yuxing City.
Not long after they left, chaos broke out in Quege City.
First, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion who were searching everywhere discovered that many monsters they did not recognize had infiltrated the city.
The guards then intended to capture the demons and bring them back to the city lord's mansion for interrogation. But since the demons dared to sneak into Quege City, they were not afraid of the guards attacking them.
As a result, a fight between the two sides was about to break out. While they were fighting fiercely, another group of demons sneaked into Quege City.
Instead of running anywhere else, they went directly to Jiuzhou Auction House.
The auction house was very large, and was filled with half-demons with the aura of the demon race, so blending in with a few demons was as easy as a drop of water falling into the sea.
Soon, the monks who worked for Jiuzhou were captured and taken to a corner, where they were interrogated by these monsters.
"What prince? I don't know!" A male cultivator who was captured and tortured looked at the several ferocious-looking monsters in front of him with fear, and his teeth were chattering with fear for a moment.
But when he heard their questions, the male cultivator was stunned for a moment.
What prince? There are no princes here, but there are many yellow half-demons.
Seeing that he refused to cooperate, the monsters attacked him again. After being beaten, the male cultivator could only beg for mercy and promise to answer questions properly before they reluctantly stopped.
"Let me ask you, did your auction house capture a Moon Fox?" Seeing that the male cultivator really didn't know the news about his own prince, they could only change the way they asked the question.
When the male cultivator heard the word "Moon Fox", his eyes widened instantly.
When several demons saw his expression, they immediately asked, "Tell me, where is the Moon Fox now? Where did you take him?!"
The demon who was asking the question showed his sharp claws and pressed them against the man's throat. The claws pressed down slightly, and a string of blood beads appeared on the man's neck.
The male cultivator had already sensed the murderous intent from them, and he knew very well that if he really didn't tell them the whereabouts of the Moon Fox, he would really die in their hands today.
He was so scared that he could only grit his teeth and tell everything he knew: "My fellow judges, I'm just a small fry and I don't know much. I only heard that the auction house got a moon fox from the black market a few days ago, and then they sold it as the finale at yesterday's auction."
"What?! How dare you sell out our little prince!" One of the impatient demons shouted immediately.
Hearing these words, the male cultivator’s face turned pale instantly.
Now he finally knew what the "prince" these monsters were talking about. It turned out that the Moon Fox acquired at the auction was actually the prince of the Moon Fox clan?
Now that people are coming to look for their prince, can their auction house still survive?
The male cultivator became more and more frightened, and he stammered as he spoke: "Yes, I'm sorry, heroes, we didn't know that it was your prince. I heard that it was a female cultivator who bought your prince and took him away yesterday. Maybe you still have time to look for him now."
"Tell me, who bought our prince?"
The male cultivator trembled even more: "I really don't know. Jiuzhou has concealed the identity of that distinguished guest. I haven't even seen her face. I only heard that she is a female cultivator. As for the rest, I really don't know!"
Seeing that the male cultivator did not seem to be lying, even though several demons were very dissatisfied with his answer, they had no other choice but to ask him if anyone knew the news.
The male cultivator thought about it and decided that it would be better for him to let his friend die than for himself, so he simply told everyone the names of the auctioneer and the manager in charge of the auction.
"You go find them, they must know the whole story!" The male cultivator tried hard to distance himself from the matter, fearing that he would be implicated.
After getting his answer, several monsters looked at each other, and one of them raised his hand and knocked the man unconscious.
They were worried that if they let the male cultivator go, he would find a chance to escape, thus exposing them.
This time they sneaked into Quege City just to find their own prince. Although they would not rule out taking action against the people in the auction house when necessary, this male cultivator was obviously just a worker, and there was no need for them to vent their anger on him.
So the demons just knocked the man unconscious, tied him up, and threw him in a corner, while they went to look for someone else who knew more about the situation.
The demons were very mobile. They followed the remaining scent of their own prince and soon found him. After some interrogation, they found out who was Xie Liuyin.
But she used a fake name and identity at the time, and several demons tracked her down all the way, only to learn from the inn that she had left the previous night!
The fox demon clan was filled with astonishment when they received the news. They didn't expect that after searching for so long and finally finding their own prince, they missed the opportunity at this time.
But there was no other way, they could only keep searching.
However, several demon tribesmen secretly swore in their hearts that when they found the female cultivator who dared to buy His Highness, they would make her pay!
But before that, they had to teach these arrogant people who auctioned off their own prince a lesson.
That night, an unprecedented melee broke out in Quege City. Even the city lord, who held the highest status in the city, suffered a heavy loss.
Not only were most of his guards killed or injured, but many monks in the city who were associated with the Hu family were also killed. The entire Quege City seemed to be enveloped in the smell of blood.
The city lord was seriously injured and was said to have been forced to sign a contract with the invading demon tribe. He not only had to release all the half-demons who were slaves in the city, but also had to give each of them a considerable amount of compensation.
From now on, if Quege City dares to buy and sell monsters again, or does anything that is detrimental to the monsters, if they harm a monster, the city will need to pay with a life.
After the contract was signed, the demons posted it on the streets of the city so that everyone in the city could see it clearly and know what kind of promise their city lord had made.
The Jiuzhou Auction House was almost destroyed by the Moon Fox Demon Clan, and all the items in the treasury were looted.
By the time Xie Liuyin found out about these things, she had already arrived in Yuxing City with Yunxuan.
