With this in mind, Wu Er began acting.
I have to say, his acting... was a little exaggerated.
"Ah!" Wu Er flung his hair away. "I'm going to die!"
With a howl, Wu Er then clutched his chest, pretending to be suffocating, with an extremely exaggerated expression on his face.
But because of this acting skill, everyone present except Han Qingxiu believed it.
They believed that it was perfectly reasonable for a lowly Golden Core cultivator to act so exaggeratedly when encountering a Dao Integration Demon King.
Moreover, the dog-headed demon who had just been beaten up was even more smug, pointing at Wu Er and saying, "How about that? Scared now!"
As for the honest Xiong Ao, his behavior was quite normal. He was initially afraid, but then he suppressed his fear and stopped trembling.
The Snow Demon King Bai Luoxiao glanced at Wu Er and the others, and was somewhat puzzled by their different behaviors, but didn't take it to heart.
These were just three minor Golden Core cultivators; he considered them no threat whatsoever.
Bai Luoxiao was, after all, a Dao-Merging Demon King, and few people in this area could threaten him.
Moreover, he believed that a threatening person wouldn't be so bored as to drive away a group of minor demons whose highest cultivation level was only at the Golden Core stage.
Yes, logically speaking, that's correct.
but......
Okay, that person is still acting, showing no intention of revealing their identity.
"Human cultivators, what brings you here?"
After standing there for a while, Bai Luoxiao asked a question.
His voice is magnetic, and he speaks with great style, making it quite pleasant to listen to.
Putting aside whether the voice is pleasant or not, now that someone has asked a question, someone on this side needs to answer.
Look at these three people.
Although Xiong Ao managed to steady himself and stop trembling, he seemed quite frightened and was unable to reply.
Wu Er is acting, and it seems he's getting more and more excited, now he can't seem to stop.
Therefore, it could only be Han Qingxiu who responded.
"At the boundary between humans and demons, the immortals once established a rule that demons are not allowed to approach within a hundred miles of the high wall without permission."
His tone was relatively calm, and he showed no fear whatsoever, displaying neither arrogance nor servility.
After all, Han Qingxiu had guessed Zhang San's identity, so she was naturally very confident and even dared to hit the demon king on the spot.
Of course, Wu Er, who was acting, only thought that his acting skills were very good and that his apprentice could not recognize his identity, so he was satisfied with Han Qingxiu's reply.
He thought to himself, "As expected of my disciple! Looks like I'll have to prepare some rewards when we get back!"
"Hmm." Bai Luoxiao uttered a sound, then turned her gaze entirely to Han Qingxiu.
Han Qingxiu felt uneasy and a little scared when she was pinned down by the demon king, but when she thought of Wu Er beside her, her fear disappeared, and she even looked up and glanced back at Bai Luoxiao.
Seeing that Han Qingxiu was not afraid at all and even dared to look back, Bai Luoxiao, who was standing to the side, raised the corners of her mouth slightly and revealed a smile.
Then he said, "You little cultivator are quite interesting, aren't you afraid of this king?"
Hearing this, Han Qingxiu was not intimidated; she had already adjusted her mindset.
Her current mindset is: Demon King? My master is right here, I'm not even afraid of a Demon Saint!
With my master backing me up, I'm so confident!
Therefore, Han Qingxiu naturally retorted to Bai Luoxiao's words without any politeness, saying, "Why should I be afraid of you? Just because you are the Demon King?"
"Oh."
Bai Luoxiao smiled again, narrowing his eyes, and said in a magnetic voice, "Woman, you have piqued my interest!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Er, who was acting, immediately stopped and secretly rejoiced.
This line?
Could it be that Bai Luoxiao is a domineering CEO who transmigrated from another world?
Putting aside all the flaws in his words, how did he figure out that my apprentice was a woman?
After saying a few words, Han Qingxiu secretly glanced at Wu Er.
She was probably thinking: I've said so much, why hasn't Master made a move yet?
Seeing that Wu Er still showed no sign of making a move, Han Qingxiu started talking to Bai Luoxiao again.
"Whether you are a demon king or a demon saint, the disciples of Pengshan are not afraid of you. As the sect leader's disciple, I am even less afraid of you!"
In these words, Han Qingxiu took the initiative to reveal her identity as the sect leader's disciple, and then she glanced at Wu Er again.
He said this to Wu Er, to remind him that his apprentice was being bullied and that it was time to intervene!
However, the certain lazy sect leader still did not make a move.
Han Qingxiu stole several glances at Wu Er, her heart filled with anxiety.
"Oh, so you're a disciple of an immortal. No wonder you speak so confidently."
Bai Luoxiao reached out and touched his chin. When he learned that Han Qingxiu was the sect leader's disciple, Bai Luoxiao's expression changed slightly.
Hearing Bai Luoxiao speak again, Han Qingxiu had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer.
Unfortunately, Wu Er refused to make a move, leaving Han Qingxiu to put on a brave face.
"Hmph, we disciples of Pengshan are fearless! How could we possibly be afraid of a mere demon king like you?"
Despite what she said, Han Qingxiu was now starting to feel afraid.
Back then, I felt confident enough to speak boldly, but now that I talk too much, I'm somewhat afraid of the Demon King of the Dao Integration Realm.
I don't know if Bai Luoxiao is a masochist, but the more Han Qingxiu cursed him, the more he laughed.
"Well, well, well, what an interesting person, daring to be so presumptuous in front of me."
Bai Luoxiao's face was filled with joy.
His appearance is just like that of a certain domineering CEO, who gets extremely excited after being scolded by the female lead a thousand times.
