Chapter 169:
"You guys are going out too?" Xiao Yu had just left when he encountered a group of cows, horses, and donkeys wandering outside the courtyard gate. He had heard from the monkey that the demons from the Demon City had found them on the mountain road when they came here. They had heard about the Demon Management Bureau and wanted to join it.
"Good evening, Chief." Big Buffalo looked embarrassed as if he had been caught.
The donkey said attentively, "Commissioner, the sweet potato vines for dinner are quite good. We'll continue our efforts tomorrow. Can we have a sweet potato vine snack tonight?"
Xiao Yu nodded: "I still have some sweet potato vines, including peanut vines. I'll ask the fox demons to help pick the peanuts, and the remaining vines will be given to you."
The cows, horses, and donkeys' eyes lit up at this. The other demons didn't know this, but they had absorbed the spiritual energy from the sweet potato vines. After eating them, their skin and flesh were cleansed, and their fur was more vibrant than usual.

Xiao Yu saw the excitement of the three and said, "As we agreed before, help me finish cultivating all the land within three days. In the future, I will be able to supply you with not only these spiritual plants but also fruits and vegetables. I might even allocate a single dormitory for you."
The big water buffalo said, "There's no need for a single dormitory. I've lived in a cowshed for hundreds of years and am used to it. If I were to eat sweet potato vines every day, I'd work for you every day." After all, it had been working for countless years since becoming a demon. Even the director's small plot of land wouldn't be enough for it to work.
Unfortunately, the other monsters were too strong, and it couldn't kill them all. Otherwise, it might be eaten alive by a tiger, wild boar or blind bear as soon as it closed its eyes at night.
Xiao Yu had no idea what the big buffalo was thinking. He glanced at the demon horse and offered five tomatoes in exchange for the demon horse being his mount for the night.
The demon horse looked at the tomatoes he took out and his eyes sparkled, indicating his willingness.
It also specifically demonstrated its specialty - the dark horse passing through the gap.
The pitch-black demonic horse, running in the darkness, was like a streak of black light. Not only could it itself be lost in the darkness, but even the person riding it could be completely obscured by its immense speed.
"Director, if you like me, I can give you a ride when you go out at night in the future. Just drive around this nearby city, and it will take me half an hour or fifteen minutes as you humans say, just like a meal. As long as you can give me some spiritual plants to eat every day, you can subscribe for a month or a year. I, Xiao Hei, can be on call at any time." After the black horse finished showing off, he tried hard to recommend himself.
Xiao Yu didn't expect that the monsters nowadays would be so stubborn.
However, if he continued to stay in the imperial capital, and this black horse was fast enough, it would be faster than riding a horse, as no one could see him anyway. There would be no need to apply for airspace rights like riding a crane.
"Okay. Now go ahead and show me your strength."
"Alright!" The black horse shrugged, and the next second, a stylish saddle and other equipment appeared on its back. Furthermore, the black horse reared up and used its hooves to secure the saddle to its belly. "This was given to me by a general when I was his mount. Unfortunately, when he returned to the court to claim his reward, he was favored by the princess and forced to marry her. I was then tied to the stable. In the end, the general released me and the other mounts."
“…”
"Aside from that general using this saddle a few times, I've never used it since."
Xiao Yu-_-||: ...

Xiao Yu took a black fur cloak and put it on.
Without waiting for the eager panda to get on the ride, the black horse leaped up and disappeared from the spot, leaving the panda dumbfounded.
Xiao Yu was initially worried about the bumpy ride, but once the black horse started to gallop, he didn't feel a single bump. And in the blink of an eye, they seemed to have arrived near the site of their planned "group fight."
This is a county town in the suburbs of the imperial capital.
Looking at the surrounding buildings and the street lights, you can tell that this place is very prosperous.
Of course, the reason why Xiao Yu was able to confirm that this was today's "battlefield" was because he "saw" that many cats and dogs in the county were heading in one direction.
Just in case, Xiao Yu put an invisibility talisman on his body and put on the golden mask given by Zhou Yanzhi.
The dark horse's "dark horse passing through" seems to be not only reflected in its speed, but also in the fact that as long as it wants, people around it cannot detect it even in the crowd.
Xiao Yu continued to sit on the black horse, letting it follow the crowd.
Soon the man and the horse arrived outside a busy place that looked like a snack street.
Before seeing the "ring battle" venue, Xiao Yuxian heard various discussions in the crowd.
"Oh, that's scary! So many dogs have surrounded the meat shop."
"Yeah, they say the customers inside were pretty scared. The boss even had to confront a pack of dogs with a kitchen knife."
"Did the boss kill the owner's dog?"
"Definitely."
"Actually, I wasn't scared by the dogs surrounding the shop. It was the boss and his wife holding the butcher knife that was scary."
“…”
☆
The man and the horse continued to move forward, and soon they heard the barking of dogs among the discussions of the crowd in the snack street.
"Oh my, our Huahua is actually parading with his dog friend?"
"Haha, yes, our Mingming is in there too. Look, that's the German Shepherd. Compared to the other dogs, our Mingming is the most handsome. Mommy really loves him."
"I've always disliked that meat vendor. I heard many of their dogs were stolen. Unfortunately, my influence is insignificant. Now they're being blocked by dogs from all over the county. I think this is their retribution."
