Chapter 151 The Four Gentlemen of the Demonic Realm
Xie Zaozao and Fu Yanzhi had been inside for more than half an hour, and the demons at the door were already getting impatient.
"Then the three little demons in that family must have died in the barrier, right?"
"It's possible. The old woman from the Lin family is inside. Their flesh is not so easy to eat. But if a few more fools like this come and break through the barrier, maybe we will have a chance."
"This is easy. After today, those mystical masters will arrive one after another. We can capture them one by one and let them come in to help us break through the barrier."
No matter how strong the mystic's barrier is, it cannot withstand bloodbath, especially blood filled with resentment will weaken the barrier's strength and eventually become fragile.
"Or maybe there are a few sealed areas in the ancestral hall in the south of the city. How about we go there and arrest people?"
Several demons were discussing deeply when they saw a golden light shining brightly from the barrier in front of them. Two people walked out from it. They were both wearing flowing white clothes and looked like immortals. They were actually the demon couple who had just walked in with them.
"you--"
They were just wondering how they got back alive when they saw the woman grab a long sword and swing it lightly at them. They felt a chill on their necks and when they looked again, their heads were already on the ground.
The mystic, of whom only half of his shadow was left, was still alert and took out the talisman early to prepare for a battle with the person in front of him.
Xie Zao Zao directly poured a bucket of water on his talisman.
Mystic Master: “…”
After the talisman was exposed to water, the words melted and flowed down the paper, staining his hands red.
What the hell is this woman throwing?!
System: ...Can spiritual spring water be used like this?
Xie Zaozao: "I just discovered that it can be used this way."
Just as the mystic was about to pounce, Xie Zaozao knocked him unconscious.
"What should we do with this person?"
"If we leave him here, he might be eaten by other passing demons, but we can't take him with us either."
"Then let's do this."
Xie Zao Zao drew his sword and poked at a dead tree next to him, poking and poking, until he finally poked a hole in the trunk, stuffed the mystic in, and then blocked it up.
"How is it?" Then she seriously asked Fu Yanzhi to look at her masterpiece.
Fu Yanzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay."
The two walked towards the direction of the crack. The wounds on Fu Yanzhi's body served as a guide, allowing him to feel the approximate location of the crack.
"In other words, you represent the entire barrier itself, right? If there's a wound on your body, you naturally know where it is."
Fu Yanzhi nodded.
Thinking of Madam Lin's eyes today, she couldn't help but feel a little proud. She pinched Xie Zaozao's cheek and said, "Madam Lin is regretting her decision now."
No one noticed Xie Zaozao's good qualities except him.
Xie Zao Zao said: "It's useless even if she finds out. Her son is a good-for-nothing and a waste. It's too tiring to serve him. It's better to beat him."
In order to avoid trouble and fill the barrier as soon as possible, the two disguised themselves as demons as before and walked around Pingliang City.
The fog here is so thick that you can't see clearly anything more than three meters away. Not far away, there are still figures walking around and even the sound of hawking.
It seems that not far away from the fog, there is a bustling market, selling all kinds of daily necessities and delicious snacks.
But when you get closer, you can smell a pungent smell of blood.
Especially when the two passed by a fishmonger's stall, the smell of blood became more obvious. Fu Yanzhi seemed to see something and reached out to cover Xie Zaozao's eyes.
"Don't look at it."
Xie Zaozao was a little dissatisfied: "I still need to see the world."
Fu Yanzhi ignored her, covered her eyes and took her away, and a few tall figures in the fog seemed to smell something and followed them quietly.
"It smells so good, so good, what a nice smell! What are they holding in their arms? Why does it smell so good?"
"It's a cub, a cub with abundant spiritual power. Eating one can increase your cultivation by hundreds of years—"
"Hurry, hurry... I've been hungry in the Demon Realm for so long, hurry up, catch up..."
The face of the black shadow appeared in the fog. At first glance, he was just an ordinary citizen, but if you look closely, you will find that this person's eyes cannot move, and even look in the wrong direction.
They are no longer human, but the demons in the abyss who are unable to get out of the cracks for the time being. They can only occupy the consciousness of humans through demonic energy. When the person commits murder and sees a lot of blood, they will take advantage of the opportunity to enter and replace him.
Xie Zaozao and Fu Yanzhi didn't seem to notice that someone was following them, and they were still strolling in front with their children.
As they were walking, Xie Zaozao asked Fu Yanzhi, "Would you like to eat a banana?"
As he spoke, he grabbed a bunch of bananas he had grown from the space.
Fu Yanzhi took the banana calmly, peeled it, handed the flesh to Xie Zaozao, and threw the skin behind him.
Xie Zao Zao finished a banana in a few bites, peeled another one, and threw the banana peel behind him.
After they walked for a while, they heard a loud bang from behind.
system:……
Normally, it would be difficult for a mystic or a demon to hit a banana peel on the ground, because the fog was thick and it was difficult to see clearly on the ground, and the people behind were always staring at the people in front.
After finishing the banana, Xie Zao Zao asked the system: "How did the person following behind fall?"
The system answered honestly: "Three were lame, two had broken noses, four had knocked out teeth, and five had their heads hit the ground."
"How many people came in total?"
"Six."
"...Then your number is not right."
"Some suffered double or triple trauma."
Xie Zaozao continued walking with the child in her arms, feeling satisfied.
The demons behind him were still following slowly. Their target was the child in the arms of the woman in front, that little cub full of spiritual energy. If they took a bite of it, its cultivation would probably increase a lot.
When they were almost at the crack of the barrier, Xie Zao Zao quietly stopped and winked at Fu Yanzhi: "I'll take the child over there to relieve myself."
Having said that, he turned and went to another secluded place with the child in his arms.
Xie Zaozao's original intention was to lure those demons aside and kill them to avoid any trouble at the crack in the barrier. However, after taking the child around for a long time, the demons did not follow her. She went back with the child in her arms, feeling a little confused.
But Fu Yanzhi was sitting there with his eyes closed, resting his mind. When he saw her, he looked a little disgusted: "You are so slow."
Looking again, Xie Zao was stunned.
Sitting under Fu Yanzhi's butt were none other than the demons who had just been beaten beyond recognition and passed out.
Xie Zaozao: "..." She said why these monsters hadn't followed them yet, were they a little stupid, after all the trouble, they were wiped out here.
Fu Yanzhi didn't say much, he just stood up and asked Xie Zaozao to continue walking, dragging the demons in his hands who were tied up tightly, like crabs just out of water.
The two of them soon arrived near the crack and saw the people guarding the crack from afar.
Some huge beast demons were patrolling everywhere. Not far away, a two-story building had been built at some point. On the second-floor balcony of the building stood a huge bed, on which lay a man in black clothes. He had black hair like ink, a pale face, large red dark lines on his cheeks, and a pair of strange green pupils.
The system whispered, "This is Wu Ya, one of the four kings of the demon world."
The Four Gentlemen of the Demon Realm are the four guardians besides the Demon Lord. The Demon Lord rarely appears on weekdays, and in the plot, it is mostly these four who stir up trouble. They have never appeared before, but now one of them finally appears, and he is so cool.
In the original plot, Wu Ya is a rather cruel character. He likes to eat human flesh, but only eats the tenderest parts of the body. He doesn't like the rest, so he kills people without counting, and when he is hungry he will look for targets everywhere.
And he was the lover of Yun Yuyao, the second lady of the Yun family. Yun Yuyao drove her companion snake to find food for him everywhere. The two of them often hung out together, causing Yun Yuyao's health to deteriorate.
In the end, the Yun family's conspiracy was exposed and they were forced to flee into the demon world together. Yun Yuyao took refuge with Wu Ya, hoping that he would treat her well.
Unexpectedly, Wu Ya used the excuse that people in the demon world never hold weddings or funerals, and simply set up a table of food and wine and took Yun Yuyao into his mansion.
After Yun Yuyao entered the demon world, her already weak body became even more vulnerable to the demonic energy and she was bedridden. Wu Ya, on the other hand, would show off in front of her with those beautiful and charming banshees every day.
The Yun family dared to be angry but not to speak out, because they were no longer qualified to return to the human world and could only rely on others in the demon world.
"What a horrible black heart," Xie Zao Zao said, "Did it transform from a crow?"
System: ...It's true, this name is so easy to come up with.
"Trash man." Xie Zao Zao cursed again.
[Ding, friendly reminder to the host, you have entered an important plot, the abyss of the demon world. Please be in danger with the child's father, support him, and save him in the critical moment.]
