Chapter 452: Watching the Fun in the Yin Ruins Palace
When Master Donghui started fighting with Da Sima, he quietly released Adao from his arms.
So now in the Yinxu Palace, apart from those fallen demon soldiers, there is only Adao.
Ah Dao carefully hid in the dark, and only after he was sure that the demon soldiers would not get up again did he carefully stick his head out.
In the past, Lingxiang only led Adao to the Demon Palace, but never entered the Yinxu Palace. Today was the first time.
After all, they have to face the Demon Lord and a group of demon ministers with ill intentions. How can Lingxiang dare to take risks with Adao?
Furthermore, given Adao's identity, the guards outside the palace would not allow him to meet the Demon Lord.
Ah Dao poked his head out and looked at the demon soldiers scattered all over the ground. He couldn't help but mutter inwardly, "They are demons, so why are these guys so formidable? They even boast of their bravery and might. They really know how to flatter themselves."
As he passed by, Ah Dao glanced at the demon soldiers on the ground, spat fiercely, and cursed inwardly: "Shameless!"
Passing the group of "soundly sleeping" demon soldiers, Adao looked around and took in the surroundings.
The hall was empty and gloomy, with bursts of medicinal fragrance wafting into the air, but inexplicably it could not cover up the pervasive smell of corruption.
Adao couldn't help but shudder, feeling a little scared, but he still plucked up the courage to inquire around.
When he and Zhan Li left, Lingxiang was still in the Shiyang Palace, but when he went to look for her with Long Qi this time, she was nowhere to be found, so the two of them broke into the Demon Palace.
Apart from that damned Demon Lord, who else would order the master around like this?
But there was no trace of the Demon Lord, let alone the spiritual fragrance.
Ah Dao, like a little adult, pinched his chin and began to think.
I remember hearing my master say that there is a secret room in the Yinxu Palace, and the switch is on the throne of the Demon Lord.
Thinking of this, Adao hurried forward to check, but after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find any mechanism.
It's strange. It's just a chair. Where can the mechanism be hidden?
Adao couldn't help but feel a little regretful: If I had known this would happen, I should have asked my master in more detail. Now look what I am doing, where can I find that damn mechanism?
Just when Adao was feeling frustrated, there was a loud noise, followed by a long shaking.
There's noise outside!
Perhaps because he was a child, Ah Dao couldn't help but lie down on the doorstep and look outside. He saw half of the eaves cut off and a mess of broken tiles on the ground.
Good boy! Master Chengxin and Master Donghui are exaggerating. They didn't say to be more restrained. If they accidentally collapse the Yinxu Palace, then the Demon Lord will be fine, but what about him and Master?
Tsk! Why are these elderly people so grumpy? Unlike Master, who is always smiling and never gets angry.
Ah Dao muttered to himself and was about to go back to find the mechanism, but he heard sighs and discussions coming from above his head and beside him.
"Isn't the Grand Tutor a civil servant? How could he be so powerful?"
"What's wrong with the civil servants? You are prejudiced."
"How do you say that?"
"Back then, it was the Grand Tutor who first eliminated the rebellious officials in the court and then personally protected His Majesty. Only then was His Majesty's throne secure."
"So powerful?"
"Isn't that right? I also heard that in the early years, the Grand Master followed the former Demon Lord and participated in the three expeditions to Fengdu. He made many remarkable achievements, and only then did our demon clan have a place in the underworld."
Ah Dao shuddered at first, then looked up with all his might, only to see the demon soldiers who had been lying on the ground just now, now all watching the excitement with high spirits, as if they were watching a play, and the only thing missing was a bench, a small table, some fruits and tea.
them……
Weren't they beaten down by Senior Brothers Chengxin and Donghui? Why are they acting like nothing happened now?
And those demon soldiers seemed not to care about Adao at all. The demon soldier above Adao's head even tilted Adao's head and kept saying, "Just watch the show and don't move around."
hiss!
this……
Is this reasonable?
Is this appropriate?
"Hmm..." Ah Dao didn't know what to say. After pondering for a long time, he carefully asked, "Aren't you guards of the Demon Palace? Why don't you go and help?"
As if they had heard a bolt from the blue, those demon soldiers first looked at each other, and then all looked at Adao, their expressions as if they had choked on night fragrance, full of disbelief.
"Hey! Little brat! What kind of nonsense are you talking about?!"
Ah Dao was confused: What's going on? Did he say something wrong?
"That's the Great Situ, how can we possibly interfere?"
The voice above Adao's head said excitedly, and the others followed suit.
“That’s right!”
"But...but you are palace guards," Ah Dao said with a puzzled look on his face. "Isn't this your duty?"
"Our lives are lives too!" The voice above my head said, as if it was a matter of course.
Ah Dao rolled his eyes upon hearing this: So you are afraid of death...
The guard beside him said, "Besides, we didn't volunteer to be guards. We were also forcibly conscripted. As long as it's acceptable for the sake of appearance, there's no need to be so serious."
Ah Dao curled his lips in disdain: "Whether it's mortals or demons, there are sneaky people everywhere..."
However, I heard from my master a long time ago that the rumors about the demon clan are not true, and not all of their people are violent. They are just forced to submit due to tyranny.
Now it seems that if this is true, it is just my own prejudice.
Just like the outside world always says that demons are evil creatures, demons are just following the laws of nature, just like my own grandmother.
Grandma settled in the city lord's mansion just to practice cultivation and had never done anything to harm anyone. But that old housekeeper was meddling and beat her own brother to death.
The weasel clan values family ties the most. The old housekeeper's action made grandma angry, so she attacked the city lord's wife.
Fortunately, I met my master.
Apart from grandma, there is no one better than Master in the world.
Ah Dao suddenly understood and didn't care about the prejudices of the world. As long as his grandmother and master were fine, no one else mattered.
Thinking of this, he felt much more at ease. Ah Dao quietly huddled up, lowered his head and pondered for a while:
These guards had taken him and Zhan Li to visit the palace before, so they were semi-familiar with him. They knew exactly who he belonged to.
Now that my uncle and his companions have broken into the demon world, and Zhan Li and I just happen to appear there, and are traveling with the Taoist sect, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this matter is closely related to me.
But they were able to talk to him calmly, which meant that the Demon Lord must not be loyal to them.
Just like ordinary people in the world, as long as they have enough food to eat, warm clothes to wear and a home to return to, they don’t care who is the emperor.
Forget it, as long as it doesn’t affect saving the master, let them do whatever they want.
Adao withdrew from the group of guards and prepared to go back to find the mechanism, but when he turned around, he saw a flash of cold light in the darkness of the Yinxu Hall. Before he could react, he was pulled aside by the guards beside him.
There was a dull sound, and a nine-ring broadsword was found stuck on the threshold where several people were watching the fun.
