Chapter 474: Getting the News
After sending Tao Zi away, Fo Cong whispered, "Tao returns to Tao, this is easier said than done."
Buddha shook the palm-leaf fan that had appeared in his hand at some point and said, "It's not easy, but we have to give it a try. Buddha, we've been listening to you for so long that we've almost forgotten our own principles."
"But this matter concerns the overall situation of the world..."
The Buddha held the palm-leaf fan in his hand and never spoke again.
"Fo Cong, which is more important, the overall situation of the world or the Tao?"
"It's the overall situation of the world."
"Which is more important, the overall situation of the world or the lives of all living beings?"
"Isn't it the same?"
"But we watched helplessly as the world suffered."
The Buddha fell silent again.
Buddha smiled and said, "If you can't distinguish between the important and the unimportant, then follow your heart. Buddha, in front of the way of heaven, we are all small people, but small people have small choices. How can we follow it in everything? As for the overall situation of the world, no one stipulates that there is only one way to go."
The Chaos Domain is the most chaotic place in the demon world. Almost all the most evil and brutal demon cultivators gather here. Any demon cultivator with a little bottom line can be considered kind in front of these demon cultivators.
Tao Zi sat in a small private room in a teahouse in the Chaos Domain wearing a bamboo hat. Xiao Er, who exuded a low-level demonic aura, came to her tremblingly and said cautiously, "My lord, what do you need? We have human blood, human flesh, and..."
She raised her hand impatiently to stop the waiter from speaking and asked bluntly, "I heard that there's a problem in Chengmoyu?"
"yes."
Tao Zi casually threw out two spirit stones and said, "Tell me."
The waiter explained the situation one by one: "Rumor has it that some time ago, a cultivator seeking death rushed into the Demonic Realm. No one knows what they did inside. The demonic energy throughout the Demonic Realm became turbulent. The demonic cultivators passing by were not prepared, and many of them died."
The waiter hesitated at this point. She tossed out two more spirit stones, and he continued with a beaming smile, "The Demon Palace sent people to investigate the Chengmo Realm. They discovered that the demonic energy there seemed to be decreasing. The Demon Palace Master ordered his men to investigate, but no one was willing to go. Furious, the Master killed several of his subordinates. Now, chaos is brewing in the Demon Palace as well."
This information is consistent with what Tao Zi got from Yi Nian Men.
Seeing that she had no reaction, the waiter quietly retreated.
Not long after, a demon cultivator came in and brought a cup of tea.
Tao Zi smelled the bloody smell and frowned in annoyance.
Suddenly, she felt vaguely dizzy and her whole body felt a little weak.
In just a few moments, she understood what had gone wrong. She smashed the blood tea on the table with an expressionless face and shouted, "Come out."
The waiter from before pushed the door open and looked at Tao Zi greedily, saying, "Look at my good luck, I actually ran into a naive Yuanying demon cultivator. If I eat your meat, I can directly ascend to the Jindan realm."
"You talk a lot."
A strange voice suddenly sounded, and the waiter immediately took an enemy stance and looked over.
The little ghost was floating in the air, smiling: "She asked me to come out, not asked you to come out, idiot."
The little ghost waved his hand, and dozens of ghosts appeared, looking at him with a smile.
Screams were heard from the teahouse. The passing demon cultivators were not surprised at all. They were all busy with their own things and no one thought of going over to take a look.
The screams in the teahouse gradually died down.
Tao Zi looked at the demon cultivator who had settled down, and with her head still a little dizzy, she slowly asked, "You call me naive?"
"No, no, no, it's my ignorance."
The kid leaned against the wall, looking at his almost materialized hands, and said, "She's asking about her naiveté, not your ignorance, idiot."
The waiter replied tremblingly, "How could a Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator give Spirit Stones in the Chaos Realm? Just put a knife to their neck and ask."
Tao Zi sighed and said, "What a bad idea."
The little ghost asked again: "Where is the antidote?"
The waiter shook his head in fear and said, "There is no antidote. There really is no antidote."
Tao Zi simply called out, "Little ghost."
It responded with a smile and lifted its sleeves, which didn't need to be lifted at all.
A quarter of an hour later, Tao Zi returned to normal and got up to leave the teahouse.
As for the waiter who had already passed away, it was naturally left to the teahouse owner to discover it himself.
About half an hour later, Tao Zi appeared at the edge of the Demon Realm.
The evil energy in the sky attacked her.
Such a powerful demonic energy would be difficult to enter even if she was in the Mahayana stage, not to mention that she was only in the Nascent Soul stage.
The little ghost appeared and said, "Tao Zi, I don't know if Han Yueshan can survive if he goes in, but I know you will definitely die if you go in."
Tao Zi did not answer, but circled the entire border of the Demon Realm and found no signs of anyone coming out.
She suddenly murmured, "Something's wrong."
The little ghost exclaimed, puzzled, "You mean this is the Demon Realm? That's definitely not right."
Tao Zi slowly shook her head and said, "No. Judging from the location, no matter which direction Yue Shan came from, it's impossible for him to reach the Demon Realm in just a few minutes. He must have met other people during that time. Let's go back to the teahouse!"
"ah?"
She stopped explaining and hurried to the teahouse.
That evil cultivator was indeed a waiter in the teahouse. He must have known more information than others. Now that he was dead, his soul probably wouldn't dissipate directly. If he was eaten by the little ghost, he would probably be able to discover something.
If it unfortunately dissipates, then kill everyone else in the teahouse and devour them one by one.
Although the little ghost didn't know what she was thinking, he still said, "I thought you were going in."
Tao Zi said expressionlessly, "I'm not stupid. Besides, I haven't gone to find Zhao Xue yet, Xi Jing hasn't regained consciousness, and Qing Lan hasn't been killed."
Since it has been confirmed that there is a problem in Chengmoyu, Yueshan is most likely still alive. She can only wait, wait for Yueshan to walk out of Chengmoyu, and wait for the day when they meet again.
The little ghost asked puzzledly: "Then what are you doing here?"
She said impatiently, "I want to personally confirm the situation in the Demon Realm, and I also want to find out what happened to Yue Shan that day."
When we arrived at the teahouse, it was extremely quiet.
Tao Zi realized something was wrong and stopped.
A voice came from inside the teahouse: "Long time no see, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea?"
She raised her eyebrows. Could this voice be that of Qiu Qianran, the Lord of the Demon Palace?
Tao Zi was not afraid and stepped straight in.
Qiu Qianran sat on a chair, not far away was a familiar corpse. He smiled and said, "Friend Yue, it would be fine if you didn't come to the Demon Realm, but killing my people as soon as you came is a bit too enthusiastic."
She replied indifferently: "I'm happy to."
Qiu Qianran kept smiling and asked, "Are you here for your new junior brother?"
Tao Zi keenly sensed something was wrong and asked, "What do you know?"
He nodded nonchalantly and said, "Of course I know. I'm not the Demon Palace Master for nothing."
Tao Zi stared at him intently. He smoothed his sleeves before saying, "That day, as soon as he entered the Demon Realm, several demon cultivators ripped off his cloak. Your junior brother was handsome, and several homosexual demon cultivators set their sights on him. He had quite a few spiritual weapons at his disposal, and he severely injured those demon cultivators. Then, a Nascent Soul brought him to the border of the Demon Realm and gave him a choice: serve obediently at the border or enter the Demon Realm. You saw the result."
