Shen Wuyou first revealed his identity, and then before the monsters could fully react, he revealed the matter of the Huangquan Kingdom's Yijin magic weapon.
Perhaps this golden magic weapon itself is far less shocking than the news that the thousand-year-old legend of Shen Wuyou has appeared in the world.
However, for the plant demon clan who have been persecuted for a long time, the legendary Lycoris radiata has little to do with them. Instead, the shining gold that is so close to them seems much more meaningful.
For plant monsters who are naturally afraid of fire, Yijin, which is strong enough to resist most fires, is their most desired treasure and an indestructible fortress that can protect them.
So when these two things happened at the same time, it was obvious that Shen Wuyou's identity was quickly forgotten.
This is why she chose to do this.
The human heart is unpredictable. Are demons necessarily pure and harmless?
When faced with the choice between life and death, no matter how upright and kind a person is, there is no guarantee that he can always stick to his original intention.
Shen Wuyou couldn't guarantee it, let alone gamble her life on it. She knew she couldn't keep her identity a secret for long, so she simply revealed it herself and used Yijin to divert their attention before they could harbor any ill intentions.
This way, she would be much safer.
As expected, the old man with gray hair and a haggard face immediately stared at the magic weapon in her hand with shining eyes, his hoarse voice trembling:
"This...this is really..."
"Yes, you can try."
Shen Wuyou activated his magic weapon to produce a small piece of gold that shone with golden light and handed it to the old man.
The other curious monsters also came over in an instant, as if they wanted to see the little piece of golden thing clearly.
"Well? Yes?"
"Has anyone seen Yijin? Come on and tell me something! I'm so anxious, I can't see it!"
"Yes, yes, right? So dazzling, so hard, it must be it?"
"Yes, I've seen it! This is the Yijin of the Phoenix Power Nation! The real thing! I was arrested by those soldiers because I touched it out of curiosity!"
"Yes, I've seen it too. It's this! It won't dissolve in fire. The entire ground and walls of the Phoenix Power Nation are covered with it!"
"Wow, Daddy! With this, we don't have to hide from people anymore, right?!"
"Chief, in your opinion..."
"Yes, this thing is the shiny gold that is immune to divine fire!" The old man nodded, and the plant monsters behind him that had emerged from the poisonous fog at some point in time also stretched their necks hoping to feast their eyes.
The old man slapped it away, not letting them see it anymore. He protected it as if it were a treasure of the sky, and excitedly walked towards Shen Wuyou, leaving the other monsters behind.
"this..."
"My last name is Shen, you can just call me Wuyou."
She saw his hesitation and immediately gave him a caring smile.
"Then I wonder how much gold Miss Wuyou has in her hands?" He asked directly. His mind was in a state of excitement and he didn't even have time to think.
Shen Wuyou actually liked his honesty. He smiled confidently and replied without hesitation, "Don't worry, old man. The Yijin I have is enough to build a city!"
"A, a city?!" His eyes rolled back in excitement and he almost fainted.
"Clan leader?"
A slightly younger-looking plant demon behind him quickly stepped forward and swiftly caught the old man who was leaning back. Seeing how excited he was, he couldn't help but grin.
"The clan leader wants to welcome you all. From now on, we are all one family of demons."
As he spoke, he called out a few times for people to come out to greet them, and respectfully invited Shen Wuyou and his group in.
After entering, Shen Wuyou discovered that the center of the Nightmare Poison Forest was also filled with poisonous miasma. Although not as dense as the outer areas, the purple poisonous mist was enough to harm their bodies.
Looking at the surviving plant monsters, their eyes clearly didn't look particularly worn out. Some even behaved childishly and lively, their eyes filled with innocent innocence. They were clearly in their prime, yet most of them appeared to be in their octogenarian state, with a staggering gait, haggard faces, and skinny bones...
Presumably, he had been plagued by the poisonous fog for a long time, and the poison had entered his lungs and was difficult to cure.
"Is the old man the patriarch here?" she asked.
The other party smiled faintly, his smile full of vicissitudes and bitterness: "Not really, it's just that among the few monsters here, I am the one who is most immune to the poisonous miasma. My mind is still clear, so I am helping the village to the best of my ability."
"The poisonous miasma here won't dissipate for a long time. I wonder if it will harm my body and my mind?"
"The girl is very thoughtful and can see through things at a glance."
He praised her, and then, as if afraid she would run away, he quickly tried to persuade her to stay, saying, "Although this poisonous miasma is powerful, it won't damage you overnight. If you're only staying for a few days, it's still safer than outside."
"Old uncle, you worry too much. I'm not afraid." She chuckled and then said solemnly:
"I think we should immediately build a golden wall around the outside. With this protection, the poisonous miasma in the center can be dissipated, leaving some clean air. This way, no one will be harmed and become so weak and haggard at such a young age."
"The girl is a new species, so she must be inexperienced and doesn't understand the tenacity of this poisonous miasma."
He understood her thoughts. When he first came here, he had also thought about dispelling the poisonous miasma and creating a safe space for them to survive.
But this idea was too naive and ended in failure again and again.
Even humans can't solve the poisonous miasma, so what can these weak demons do?
"Old uncle, you can try to trust me."
Shen Wuyou did not retreat in the face of difficulties. Instead, he smiled confidently and brightly, which made people inexplicably convinced.
"Well, it's a good idea to have. Just give it a try. If you need help, you can call us for help." He didn't stop her.
When you are young, you must always be motivated and dare to take risks and fight hard, so that your life will not be in vain.
"Then I won't be polite."
She said you're welcome, so she immediately called away all the young men who were able to move.
Then, while gesturing on the ground with a thin, dry branch, she solemnly explained the drawings she had drawn. Her voice was gentle and clear, as melodious as a mountain stream and as lingering as the fragrance of an orchid, inexplicably calming the mind as she explained the complex theories word by word.
They had never encountered this kind of mechanical technology before, so they couldn't help but find it a bit difficult.
Fortunately, Shen Wuyou took their doubts into consideration and explained everything in detail. When someone asked her questions, she patiently explained them. Therefore, the process didn't last very long.
Then, they walked towards the periphery one after another, in groups of three, lined up in order. Shen Wuyou planted purple-black rosemary in the black hard soil filled with deathly silence.
She stood on a massive rosemary leaf, gradually looking down as it rose higher. Overlooking the Nightmare Poison Forest, she took out her Ruyi magic weapon and began to release a steady stream of glittering golden bricks...
