Chapter 45 Oops, it’s coming for me
The Great Protector and a group of people followed Feng Li to the gate of a palace on another mountain. Outside the palace gate stood powerful demon soldiers. Seeing Feng Li's arrival, they bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, the elders have been waiting for you for a long time."
Feng Li waved his hand without looking away, and the great guardian beside him understood and led his men to wait outside the door. Feng Li went straight to the palace.
At this time, four demon elders were already sitting in the elders' meeting hall.
The darkness descended, and only the elder's deep voice could be heard in the darkness.
"Li'er, I'm late. What have you been busy with recently? I've heard a lot of rumors about you."
Feng Li's eyes flickered slightly: "It's just some trivial matters. I wonder what interesting rumors the elder has heard. I would like to hear them."
"I heard that you are particularly interested in a girl from the Immortal Sect? Don't lose your composure when it comes to matters concerning the Demon Clan."
"For a girl from the Immortal Sect, this is not something the Demon Lord should do."
"I hope Li'er will prioritize the affairs of the demon clan."
The glimmer in Feng Li's eyes disappeared, and he put on a smile, "It's just a momentary interest, just for fun, nothing to worry about." He has found a new toy, and as for her, well, let these old guys guess what they want.
......
......
Jiang Qiu took a comfortable bath and changed into new robes. With neither of his two guardians in the Demon Palace, Jiang Qiu couldn't help but feel bored. He began to miss the good old days of the modern world, where he could play with his phone and computer, which was much more fun than this world. Although this was a fairy world where he could fly and cast spells, the lack of entertainment was the real issue. Jiang Qiu felt utterly bored.
How about going out to have some fun and earn some gold coins?
Feng Li told him to take care of himself, but didn't say not to let him go out.
Jiang Qiu laughed, but before he could finish his laugh for a few minutes, someone outside the bedroom door angrily shouted at him.
"You dare to stop me? Do you know who I am?"
The subordinate outside the door said: "Sir, no one is allowed to enter without the order of the Lord."
"Even the elder's handwritten order won't work?"
"this..."
Before Jiang Qiu could react, he pushed the door open and walked in, startling Jiang Qiu. Fortunately, he did not sit on Feng Li's bed, otherwise how could he explain it to others?
Both of them were stunned. After the system's warm reminder, Jiang Qiu already knew who this person was. The person in front of him was none other than Young Master Qin Shang, who was secretly competing with the Demon Lord Feng Li for the throne. He was the biological son of an elder and had always been known for being compassionate to his subordinates and caring for the demon people.
But it was all an act. He couldn't stand Feng Li, and he couldn't get rid of him, so he had to pretend to be a green tea to win the favor of the ignorant masses and elders. But, this is a world of immortal heroes where strength is everything! Will his tricks really work?
Qin Shang saw that it was Feng Li's Left Protector, and his anger immediately subsided. He turned into a harmless look and greeted with concern: "Left Protector is here! I haven't seen Left Protector for a long time. How are you doing recently?"
Jiang Qiu: "Everything is fine, sir." What a pretense!
"Your Majesty is not here? Why is the Left Protector in Your Majesty's bedroom?" Qin Shang seemed to have just discovered that Feng Li was not in the bedroom. He exclaimed in surprise and looked at Jiang Qiu thoughtfully.
Congratulations, you found the highlight.
Jiang Qiu could only chuckle a little: "Your Highness, I just cleaned the bathtub for you."
Qin Shang glanced at the empty bathtub, said "oh" in understanding, and found nothing unusual.
Jiang Qiu felt guilty, but luckily I reacted quickly and poured out the water in the bathtub, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.
"I see. I thought His Majesty had hidden a mistress in this golden house."
Jiang Qiu: “…” In fact, your guess is correct.
Qin Shang glanced around, but found nothing unusual. He then said to Jiang Qiu with a faint smile:
"Actually, I came here to look for you, the Left Protector. However, the Left Protector is Your Majesty's man, so I have to let Your Majesty know. Otherwise, people will think I acted on my own. Unexpectedly, Your Majesty is not here, so I will just tell you directly."
Jiang Qiu's eyebrows twitched. Oh no, it's coming towards me.
Qin Shang said this and that to him...

In Wuhu, Jiang Qiu arrived at the territory of Xianmen.
Jiang Qiu had never imagined that he would become famous because of his undercover work. Qin Shang had told him that the elders admired his undercover skills and had therefore specially appointed him to act as an undercover agent in the Quanju Sect, a sect of immortal cultivation.
Elimination,
God's undercover ability,
That was just a fabrication he made up to ease the green feeling on Feng Li's head.
He also said that he would tell Feng Li later that this was a special assignment from the elders, and hoped that he would not have any concerns and just go for the sake of the demon clan's cause. After the mission was completed, the demon clan would definitely reward him handsomely.
There is no need for that. In fact, he doesn't desire those spirit stones. As for the generous reward, no matter how much he is rewarded, he cannot be taken away from Feng Li.
However, due to his current identity and the system's repeated persuasion that he should take on this task, and that he would receive a super gift package if he completed the task, Jiang Qiu reluctantly accepted it and set off that day.
Jiang Qiu was walking with a sore back at this time, especially after being tormented by someone last night, he was even more exhausted. Now he felt a little tired after walking through the forest.
Suddenly, countless birds flew out of the forest ahead, frantically flying around as if startled. They flapped their wings and fled desperately. Jiang Qiu immediately realized that something might be amiss.
In a place like this, if there are startled birds, it will either cause an accident or disaster.
Jiang Qiu wasn't such a saint. In this world, he had to rely on others to survive, so he didn't have time to care about others. He immediately climbed up to the treetops and quietly hid on a branch to investigate.
It turned out to be a common blockade and ambush, which looked like a robbery.
Two cultivators were seen standing in the middle with terrified expressions on their faces. One was about the same age as Jiang Qiu, and the other looked to be in his forties or fifties. They were surrounded by five masked men.
They looked like two independent cultivators, their strength was no match for their opponent, and their robes were stained with blood.
"Uncle Chen, you go first and I'll cover you."
"How can I let you stay?"
The ending is already decided, Jiang Qiu sighed in his heart.
Originally, Jiang Qiu wanted to earn some extra money by saving people, but when he thought about the fact that he was here as an undercover agent, he decided to mind his own business.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a masked man shouting,
"We are from the Southern Demon Tribe. Hand over all your treasures quickly and we will spare your bodies."
Jiang Qiu raised his eyebrows.
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Qiu kicked him with a flying kick.
The man screamed and slammed into the tree trunk with a bang like a cannon, breaking more than ten trees in a row, sending wood chips flying. He then spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
What the hell? Using the Southern Territory Demon Clan's name to defraud people. Are there such vulgar people in our Southern Territory?
