Su Rui was gathering his demon soldiers and generals to conduct a census of the tribes in Beifeng Mountain. He planned to lead them to rob or buy some supplies after the census. Beifeng Mountain actually had a lot of rare herbs that could be exchanged for supplies, but King Jinjiao hadn't paid much attention to them at the time.
Su Rui is different from native wild monsters like the Golden Horn King. He is used to living a simple life with abundant supplies. Life in the mountains is hard, so any change is appreciated.
Seeing that many little demon leaders were already standing under the "throne", Su Rui was ready to give them a lecture. However, at this moment, a gray-black sword light flew into the cave. Su Rui was on guard when the flying sword fell to the ground and turned into a chubby human child.
When Su Rui saw it, he recognized it immediately. Isn't this the ghost boy that Taoist Qiao San had sacrificed?
The ghost boy glanced around the cave, his gaze finally landing on Su Rui on the "throne." He bowed and said, "Greetings, King Jinjiao! I've come here mainly to inform you that my master invites you to meet at Corpse King Valley tomorrow at twilight hour. Please be punctual!"
Su Rui was stunned when he heard this. There was indeed memory information related to the appointment between King Jinjiao and Taoist Qiao San in the spirit of King Jinjiao. According to the agreement, King Jinjiao helped Taoist Qiao San to seize the position of the headmaster of Heshan Dao. After the appointment was completed, Taoist Qiao San would provide King Jinjiao with a weapon refining technique.
The Golden Horn King's cultivation to the Golden Elixir stage was entirely accidental. He had once discovered a fragmentary, unnamed technique and a set of formation flags in a cave, and coincidentally obtained a Gengjin elite within Beifeng Mountain. He stumbled upon the Golden Elixir and, with a crude grasp of the formation, mastered no weapon or alchemy techniques. The other lesser demons of the mountain essentially absorbed the essence of the sun and moon, slowly growing through long periods of self-discovery. It was impossible for them to have any unsystematic cultivation techniques or inherited methods, let alone weapon or alchemy.
It agreed to help Taoist Qiao San to seize the Taoist method of refining weapons from Heshan. One reason was to speed up the refining speed of the golden horn on its head, and the other was that it happened to have a Gengjin vein in its hand, and planned to refine some low-level magic weapons for the little demons under its command to increase the foundation of Beifeng Mountain and improve the combat effectiveness of Beifeng Mountain.
After Su Rui recalled the memories of King Jinjiao and Taoist Qiao San and let them flow through his mind, he nodded to the ghost boy and said, "Got it! Go back and tell Taoist Qiao San that I will arrive at Corpse King Valley on time tomorrow!"
The ghost boy bowed to him briefly, then turned into a gray-black light and left Beifeng Mountain.
Then, the sound cards that Su Rui placed in the small bag also vibrated...
Su Rui scolded the commanders casually for a few words, then hurriedly drove them away. After sending away the little demons who usually served him one by one, he took out the synchronized voice cards from the small cloth bag.
"Boy Su, True Man Di Jue is expected to arrive near Heshan Road tomorrow, so you should be prepared to approach him now!" The voice of True Man Yu'e came from the simultaneous voice card.
"Master, don't worry! I promise to serve Master Di Jue clearly and find a way to pry out the whereabouts of Old Man Tian Tong from his mouth!!" Su Rui said, patting his chest.
The reason why he transformed into the King of Golden Horn to replace him was, on the one hand, because of the needs of the environment at that time, and on the other hand, he actually hoped to get closer to Taoist Qiao San and Master Di Jue through another identity.
He just didn't believe that even if he used both methods, he still couldn't get close to Master Di Jue!
As for whether it is possible to get clues about Old Man Tiantong, one depends on whether True Man Di Jue has it, and the other depends on how well True Man Yu'e cooperates with him.
However, this matter cannot be rushed. He plans to find an excuse of seclusion or something like that to leave Beifeng Mountain and return to Heshan Road to see the situation.
For safety reasons, he planned to go to the crater in the south before returning and ask Chi Jiao to be his temporary bodyguard.
So, Su Rui summoned the leaders of the demons again and announced to them that he would be in seclusion for a period of time to practice. He asked them to deal with any urgent matters according to the previous practice, and if the matters were not urgent, they could postpone them until he came out of seclusion.
He also left a warning that if anyone dared to overstep his authority and infringe upon the rights and interests of Beifeng Mountain during his retreat, he would wipe out the entire clan and exterminate them when he came out!
After making these harsh words, he left no spies such as supervisory envoys, announced his retreat, and left the "throne" and escaped from Beifeng Mountain.
When he found that there were no demons following him, he landed in the dense forest and used his Yuan Shen Qi to transform back into a human form. Then he transformed into a beam of light and headed towards the southern crater.
Su Rui's escape speed was not slow now, but it still took him nearly an hour to reach the crater.
Judging from his current state, he can be considered a fire-attributed monster, so he flew directly above the crater and then fell directly into the volcanic lava in a free-fall posture.
It's a bit like diving!
“It’s so comfortable…”
Soaking in the volcanic lava, Su Rui felt like he was taking a hot spring bath, and every cell in his body came alive.
"Have you dealt with your affairs?"
A pleasant voice was heard, and then the figure of the red dragon appeared beside Su Rui.
"Not yet, but it will be soon. There may be unrest in Heshan Road recently. I would like to invite you to join me and we can split the benefits equally. How about it?" Su Rui said straight to the point.
"What unrest?" asked Chi Jiao.
Su Rui thought for a moment and then told him everything about Taoist Qiao San's plan and his relationship with him, but he kept the task assigned to him by Yu'e Zhenren secret. This involved Yu'e Zhenren and the magical treasure Xuepozhu, so Su Rui was afraid that Chi Jiao would have strange thoughts, so he decided to keep it secret.
Upon hearing this, Chi Jiao nodded and said, "I just refined a Xuanyin Ghost Fire Pill, which consumed a lot of materials. I have nothing to do, so I'll play with the old man from Heshan Dao!"
