“If we follow the method taught by Miss Su Su and use ordinary ingredients, we can absorb about 10%,” Demon Raiser Number One continued.
"What? One-tenth?" Demon Raiser Number Two's mouth gaped even wider: "Even a Heavenly Grade cultivation technique can't reach that level."
“Yes, one percent!” Demon Raider Number One chuckled: “Personally tested, absolutely true.”
Demon Raider Number Two's eyes suddenly burned with fervor: "Big Brother, will you teach me? I will follow your lead from now on."
"Don't you want to escape anymore?" Demon Keeper Number One glanced at Demon Keeper Number Two and asked.
Demon Keeper Number Two chuckled sheepishly: "Look at what you're saying, big brother. When did I ever think about running away? I just got beaten up badly and came here to calm down."
“You should be glad you didn’t have time to escape,” Demon Keeper Number One said, shaking his head.
"What do you mean?" Demon Keeper Number Two was taken aback.
“The Great Sage has already placed a restriction on you. If you escape beyond a certain range, your flesh will begin to rot, and after enduring forty-nine days of torment, you will turn into pus,” said Demon Raiser Number One.
"Really? Really?" Demon Keeper Number Two's face turned pale instantly, and he could barely speak.
"Would I lie to you?" Demon Raider Number One glanced at Demon Raider Number Two and said, "We're the same kind, after all."
"Thank you for your advice, brother. I will definitely stay put from now on and never run away again," Demon Keeper Number Two hurriedly swore, pointing to the sky and the ground.
"Only by staying by your side will you have a bright future," Demon Keeper Number One said earnestly. "If you trust me, and behave yourself from now on, your future will definitely be bright."
"But didn't that lord say he would deal with me in the future?" The eyes of Demon Keeper No. 2 suddenly dimmed.
Not only that lord, but also the Great Sage said that he would continue to beat him up in the future.
Even getting beaten up once is so unbearable.
He was afraid he wouldn't be able to handle it if it happened a few more times.
“It’s only right to be punished for doing something wrong. Don’t worry, the Great Sage won’t hurt you. At most, it will hurt a little,” said Demon Raiser Number One.
Upon hearing this, Demon Keeper Number Two was on the verge of tears.
That's not just a little bit of pain.
It hurts a lot.
"As for the punishment..." Demon Keeper No. 1 pursed his lips and said, "He will probably suffer some pain, but he won't lose his life, don't worry."
The demon keeper's face looked even more bitter, as if he had swallowed a ton of bitter melon.
How much suffering is this?
I don't know if he'll be able to handle it.
“Once you have finished your punishment, your future will be bright,” Demon Keeper Number One continued.
"I hope so," Demon Keeper Number Two said dejectedly, head bowed.
"Alright, don't think about it too much. I also brought you a steamed sea urchin. Try it, it tastes amazing." Demon Raiser Number One reluctantly took out a sea urchin and handed it to Demon Raiser Number Two.
Demon Raider Number Two immediately began to wolf down the food, even crunching on the outer spiky shell.
It was incredibly crisp and fresh.
They finished eating quickly, but Demon Keeper No. 2 was still a little unsatisfied.
Demon Raiser Number One shrugged: "Stop thinking about it, that's all."
He actually has some more.
But those were all for himself.
Although we are of the same clan, we were not acquainted before, so it is already very generous of them to offer these two items.
Just then, Demon Keeper Number One and Number Two sat up straight at the same time.
His gaze was fixed on what was ahead.
As if in a trance.
It took them both a while to recover, and their faces turned pale.
"Did you hear that?" Demon Keeper Number One looked at Demon Keeper Number Two, his voice weaker than before.
"I heard you." Demon Keeper Number Two nodded, he was also short of breath at the moment.
“I’ll go tell the Great Sage,” Demon Keeper Number One said, standing up.
"Big brother, let me go with you. Give me a chance to atone for my sins before the Great Sage." Demon Raiser Number Two hurriedly stood up, looked up at Demon Raiser Number One, and said somewhat nervously.
He wasn't trying to claim credit, but rather to improve his relationship with the Great Sage, hoping to avoid the beatings that followed.
But he was worried that such actions would cause his companions to misunderstand.
And there's still no way to explain it.
Because trying to gain favor in this way seems almost the same as vying for credit.
“Okay.” Demon Raiser Number One nodded.
Very decisive and efficient.
So decisively, even Demon Keeper Number Two thought he was hallucinating.
If it were the other way around, you would have arrived first.
They certainly wouldn't be so kind as to bring their companions to compete for credit with the Great Sage.
Is my companion an idiot?
Being an idiot is good.
The dumber your companions are, the more opportunities you'll have to prove yourself later.
That's good news.
Demon Keeper Number Two couldn't help but smile, but he kept his head down so no one could see it.
The two demon tamers quickly found Wukong.
Wukong is drinking tea.
Demon Keeper Number One quickly walked up to Wukong: "Great Sage, my companion and I have something to report."
Wukong glanced at the two of them and asked, "What is it?"
Upon hearing this, Demon Keeper Number Two eagerly said, "Great Sage, it's like this, just now I..."
"Speak!" Wukong interrupted impatiently, looking at Demon Keeper Number One, and said.
"Yes, Great Sage." Demon Keeper No. 1 said respectfully, "My companion and I just received the summons from the Demon General."
"Didn't you receive one before?" Wukong asked.
“It’s different. Before, the Demon General woke me up to prepare for the assembly, and I didn’t know the Demon General’s location.” Demon Raiser Number One shook his head and said, “But this time, it’s an assembly order with a specific location, in Youhuang City, Western Jue Continent.”
Wukong frowned.
Yun Zhan mentioned an eighteen-story underground palace, isn't that right beneath Youhuang City?
The summons that demon tamers receive now are also to go to Youhuang City.
Is there any connection between the two?
Could it be that the demons are also eyeing that underground palace?
That won't do.
The place the master has set his sights on, how dare a mere demon steal it!
If they dare to come, I'll beat them to death.
"Then do you know how many demon tamers have been gathered?" Wukong asked slowly.
"I don't know." Demon Keeper Number One shook his head.
"Time?" Wukong asked again.
"Five days later," Demon Keeper Number One said, "the exact location is Wanren Peak, west of Youhuang City."
"Okay, I understand." Wukong nodded and casually gave the remaining braised ribbonfish on the plate to Demon Keeper Number One.
"Thank you, Great Sage." Demon Raiser Number One accepted it, saying happily.
Demon Keeper Number Two looked on with envy.
But he dared not say more.
Why didn't I encounter it first?
"If you receive any further messages, please let me know." Wukong paused here, then continued, "If you dare to pass messages to the Demon General..."
Wukong didn't finish his sentence, but the pressure of his half-step divine realm was unleashed without reservation.
The two demon keeper immediately trembled and knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Great Sage, we dare not, we absolutely dare not," Demon Keeper Number One hurriedly said.
"No, no!" Demon Keeper Number Two shouted.
