The scenery in this valley is surprisingly beautiful, with a crack in the top allowing sunlight to shine through.
The surrounding area is shaded by green trees, and a gentle stream flows through the middle, giving people a pleasant feeling of a paradise.
However, a closer look reveals a chilling truth.
What was coiled on the tree was not green vines, but a giant green spotted python that was even thicker than the tree.
A huge rock on the ground shook and stood up. It turned out to be a giant land tortoise, more than ten feet in size, like a small mountain. Trees several feet tall even grew on its shell.
Several huge, spotted tigers emerged from the forest, sizing up Yang Sheng.
More and more demons gradually appeared around, numbering in the tens of thousands, more than ten times the number in the Thousand Demon Cave of Baisheng Mountain.
Being stared at and scrutinized by so many demons, the sheer power of their demonic aura had already made Old Master Cui pale with fear.
Among the many monsters, three demons slowly emerged, all of whom looked very old.
Earlier on the way, Bei Zhen and Bai Jie had introduced Yang Sheng to the situation of the demon race in the Youdu Mountains.
The demons of the Youdu Mountains were nominally led by the most powerful Youquan Blood Demon, but in reality, they were led by the Three Elders.
These three elders were not the strongest among the many demons, but they were the oldest, most senior, and most respected seniors of the demon race.
They themselves do not have a large clan or descendants, so they always put the interests of the demon race in the Youdu Mountains first, which is why they can win the respect of the masses and gain the approval of other demon races.
When the demon race begins to abide by the rules and suppress the rudimentary law of the jungle, it is enough to prove that the demons in the Youdu Mountains are not simply man-eating monsters, but are capable of communication.
These three elders of the demon race were the hunchbacked old men who had transformed from the giant tortoise that resembled a small mountain. They leaned on a simple wooden cane, and their wrinkles almost obscured their features, but they showed no signs of old age and remained full of vitality.
This old man is named Gui Qianzu. It is said that he has lived for nearly ten thousand years. He even witnessed the birth of the Youquan Blood Demon. He has outlived countless outstanding figures of the demon race.
The second was a robust old man, nearly three zhang tall, like a small giant.
His name is Xiang Wentian. His true form is a one-horned mammoth, a unique species among mammoths. Because he was too strange at birth, he was abandoned by his tribe and cultivated himself into a spirit on his own.
The third was a thin, short old woman named Granny White Fox. She was said to be a descendant of the ancient exotic fox spirit. In her youth, she even had a marriage with a powerful human from the outside world. Later, for some unknown reason, they separated, and she retired to this Youdu Mountain Range.
Behind the three elders were a group of powerful demons, all of whom were eyeing Yang Sheng and Elder Cui with predatory intent.
Yang Sheng cupped his hands and said, "Yang Sheng, the gold-medal swordsman of the Demon Extermination Alliance, greets the Three Elders."
Xiang Wentian looked at Yang Sheng in a sullen voice and said, "You human brat really have guts. You two dare to come to my Youdu Mountain Range. Aren't you afraid you won't be able to get out?"
Yang Sheng said calmly, "To put it arrogantly, I have ventured into forbidden areas that are even more dangerous than the Youdu Mountains. The Youdu Mountains are really not something that I'm afraid of."
Granny White Fox snorted coldly: "You human brat, you have quite the big mouth!"
"You claim to be a top-notch ghostwriter, renowned and famous, but your hands are stained with the blood of my demon race. Now you want to join forces with my demon race? It's a joke!"
Yang Sheng shook his head and said, "I don't think this is a joke. In fact, in my eyes there is only friend and foe, not human and human beings."
The swordsman slays demons and monsters because those demons and monsters kill living beings, so they are naturally enemies.
But if there are humans as my enemies, I will naturally not hold back.
If we follow your logic, I've actually killed more people than I've killed demons.
In the Thousand Demon Cave of Baisheng Mountain in Liang Kingdom, I wiped out thousands of man-eating demons in one battle.
But in suppressing the Red Turban Rebellion, I killed fewer people in each battle?
Now I am an enemy of Pudu Temple, and you are also enemies of Pudu Temple.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. We clearly have the potential to cooperate, so why can't we?
Yang Sheng's values are definitely skewed in the eyes of the human race. If the major sects knew about it, they would definitely say that he was colluding with the demon race.
However, the demons found this very reasonable. If everyone thought like Yang Sheng, the two sides wouldn't be so opposed to each other.
After all, not all demons in the demon race are man-eating monsters. They have also been implicated by those with bad reputations, ruining their own reputations.
