"If they don't leave, they might all be killed when the people from Mangshan come," Liu Yi said, her face full of worry.
Shangguan Hongyu couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to such ignorant people.
But what Liu Yi said made a lot of sense, and we had to find a way to protect them temporarily.
If they still want to continue working here after a while, then there's nothing that can be done.
Heaven is bound to be unfair to everyone.
But if they have the opportunity to escape this injustice and fail to seize it, even a god couldn't save them.
"Perhaps we can ask the old tree spirit to come and protect them." After much thought, Shangguan Hongyu could only think of the old tree spirit.
The old tree demon was not far from here. The Heavenly Master who subdued the tiger chose this place as the site for building the city, but he was unable to move the old tree demon, which shows how powerful the old tree demon was.
Liu Yi asked, "Will the tree spirit listen to us?"
"Money makes the world go round. As long as the benefits are sufficient, it will definitely work." Shangguan Hongyu was very confident about this and immediately went to discuss the matter with the old tree spirit.
Watching Shangguan Hongyu leave, Dugu Qiusheng laughed and said, "Brother Bian, your wife is too kind-hearted!"
Shangguan Hongyu thought that she could live an easy life after stepping down from the throne of Empress, but judging from her personality, it was impossible for her to live an easy life.
Bian Lang said, "Sometimes, I can be a good Samaritan too."
In fact, wherever he went, Bian Lang would intervene if he encountered any injustice.
It feels really good to get rid of those bad guys and see the good guys beam with joy.
Not long after, Shangguan Hongyu returned, saying that the old tree spirit had agreed to help protect the people here for three years.
Three years is but a blink of an eye for the old tree demon, but for the people, if they haven't recovered after three years, it means they are beyond saving.
Of course, the most important thing to ensure that these people can truly live a good life is to eliminate Mangshan.
Demon hunters are meant to protect ordinary people, but if they turn around and harm them, the lives of ordinary people will undoubtedly become even more difficult.
Three years is enough.
Shangguan Hongyu was well aware of the old tree demon's strength, and felt at ease when she left.
"Hongyu, how powerful is that Tiger-Subduing Celestial Master?" Liu Yi asked with a smile.
Shangguan Hongyu said, "I haven't seen him for many years, but back then, his strength seemed very weak to me."
Mangshan does indeed have some very powerful beings, and compared to those guys, the Tiger-Subduing Celestial Master is nothing.
Dugu Qiusheng sighed, "I have a feeling that the four of us alone would have a hard time competing with the entire Mangshan Mountain."
“We also have a powerful helper.” Bian Lang was referring to the Four-Clawed Chicken Demon.
The four-clawed chicken demon is definitely not weak.
If we really go to war with Mangshan, the Four-Clawed Chicken Demon will definitely come in handy.
Dugu Qiusheng was speechless, feeling that even if ten more four-clawed chicken demons were added, they would still be no match for Mangshan.
Seeing that everyone else seemed quite composed, Dugu Qiusheng said nothing more. After all, continuing to speak would only make him appear cowardly.
You must never be labeled a coward in front of a woman you like.
Once you're labeled, you'll never be able to get out of this mess.
Several days later, they arrived at Mangshan.
Mangshan is very majestic, with its peaks soaring into the clouds, and extremely eerie sounds can be heard from there.
“From the front, there will be a protective array. Any slight movement will be detected by the demon hunters.” Shangguan Hongyu said this to ask Bian Lang whether they should force their way in or properly pay their respects.
Bian Lang said, "We're here to deliver a corpse."
We can't just force our way in here when we're transporting corpses, can we?
They announced the news loudly, and soon disciples from Mangshan appeared before them.
But the two disciples' gazes remained fixed on Shangguan Hongyu and Liu Yi.
A stunning beauty will always be the center of attention wherever she goes.
Bian Lang coughed lightly and said, "Please accept this corpse of the four-clawed chicken demon."
"A four-clawed chicken demon?" a disciple asked in astonishment.
The enormous corpse of the chicken demon was right behind Bian Lang, but the chicken demon clearly only had two claws.
Another disciple, clearly more knowledgeable, laughed and said, "The corpse of the four-clawed chicken demon is quite valuable. Are you just going to give it to Mangshan like this?"
Bian Lang said softly, "It's just a demon corpse."
The disciple frowned slightly, clearly trying to guess Bian Lang's intentions.
You should know that the corpse of the four-clawed chicken demon is full of treasures, and many people have tried to find it but have failed.
But these people in front of me actually gave away the corpse of the four-clawed chicken demon so casually.
Without a doubt, these guys are up to no good.
"What do you wish to exchange for?" the disciple asked again.
Bian Lang laughed and said, "As long as you accept this demon corpse, we'll turn around and leave."
"This is a matter of great importance, and I have no authority to make a decision. Please wait a moment while I consult my elders." The disciple was quite polite.
Bian Lang wasn't in a hurry, after all, he still needed to greet the Tiger-Subduing Celestial Master.
The extent of the Tiger-Subduing Celestial Master's actions on that mountain, how many people in Mangshan knew about them, and how many were directly involved—all of these things need to be clarified.
If we really can't figure it out, the only option is to wipe out the entire Mangshan Mountain.
A moment later, a middle-aged man flew down the mountain and emerged from the protective barrier.
This man had a long, dark beard and a rather dignified appearance; his cultivation level was at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
His gaze swept over the crowd, finally landing on Liu Yi, simply because Liu Yi was young but her cultivation was already at the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
