"The King? Which one?"
"King Lu Chen, he is one of the Twelve Pillars of the Demon Court and the great king commanding Xiao Fu." The tiger demon replied honestly:
"This ti, it was he who used supre great divine power to send us here."
Chen Yi raised an eyebrow slightly; Jiaolong Luchen seed quite active.
Previously, his master Li Qingzhou saw that Jiaolong as if facing a formidable enemy and was later besieged by it and a host of demons.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at Taizhou Mountain, the first demon he heard of by na was that Jiaolong again.
You could say it’s quite the fateful encounter.
As Chen Yi was thinking, he looked towards Gu Zhuo and the others, asking, "Has sothing like this happened before?"
"It happens occasionally," Gu Zhuo replied seriously, "but this ti, the demon has the highest cultivation level, presumably because that Jiaolong’s divine power realm has improved."
Chen Yi understood and continued to interrogate the tiger demon: "And what is your purpose for coming here?"
"Purpose..." The tiger demon glanced at Gu Zhuo and the other two, hesitantly saying:
"The great king wanted to feast, so he sent us here to capture more human cultivators."
Chen Yi’s smile faded slightly, "I didn’t expect you to be so straightforward, daring to say anything."
The tiger demon smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Thank you, sir, for the praise. Xiao Fu speaks whatever he knows."
"Puhaha..." Ji Binglan couldn’t help but burst into laughter, finding the tiger demon not frightening but rather foolish.
"Junior Sister," Gu Zhuo said helplessly, trying to stop her.
anwhile, Yin Shunan kept observing Chen Yi thoughtfully.
Compared to the other two who focused on the tiger demon, he was more curious about Chen Yi’s identity and background.
After all, a sword cultivator appearing behind human lines had been seen before.
Either they were humans driven by demons, feigning rescue with the aim of infiltrating the garrison.
Or they were powerful humans from realms on Taizhou Mountain via the Netherworld River.
As for coming from the Tianyuan Continent... it’s unheard of!
"...How are you planning to return?" Chen Yi glanced at Gu Zhuo and the others, continuing to ask.
"The Wolf King has a dragon talisman given by King Lu Chen. Once it’s crushed, the great king will bring us back."
Dragon talisman?
Chen Yi waved his hand, summoning the wolf demon’s corpse and indicating, "Find it."
The tiger demon didn’t dare to delay, leaping out of the pit and rummaging through the wolf demon’s corpse, eventually finding a palm-sized collar in the inner molar, then wiping it and presenting it to Chen Yi with a flattery:
"My lord."
Chen Yi took it casually, Sword Intent infiltrating it, revealing it was a storage magic device.
There weren’t many items inside, except for a blood core of the Demon King level and so broken magic artifacts, along with dozens of drug bottles that seed to hold elixirs.
The dragon talisman the tiger demon ntioned was among them.
Chen Yi extracted this so-called dragon talisman—just a black scale, with a few faintly glowing talismans on the surface.
It looked similar to the dragon scales on Xiao Qing, but the talismans on its surface were clearly not as profound as those on the Divine Beast Azure Dragon’s scales.
Chen Yi examined it for a mont and then stored it in his Suru Bag. He tossed the collar to Gu Zhuo and the others, casually saying, "See if there’s anything you need."
Finishing his sentence, he didn’t bother with the reactions of the three and continued questioning the tiger demon:
"For this visit, was there a specified ti?"
"No," the tiger demon, looking sowhat envious, said, eyeing the collection belonging to the Wolf King, thinking it must contain many treasures, "the great king had other matters, so after sending us, he went to the Demon Imperial Palace."
"Demon Imperial Palace?" Chen Yi raised an eyebrow, "There’s a Demon Imperial Palace here too? Then who is the Demon Emperor? Feng Yue?"
"No, no," the tiger demon sneered disdainfully, "that one from the Tianyuan Continent isn’t our Demon Emperor. She’s rely a Great Demon who doesn’t even dare to set foot on Taizhou Mountain."
"Plus, I heard she has offspring with humans, utterly disgraceful for us demons!"
Chen Yi suddenly grew interested.
The demon court on Taizhou Mountain doesn’t recognize Fengyue Demon Emperor, now this was intriguing.
No wonder, when he went to the Ten Thousand Mountains before, those demons said Emperor Tian didn’t want Fengyue to co to Taizhou Mountain, indeed.
Surely Fengyue Demon Emperor wasn’t aware of this detail?
"Continue, who is the Demon Emperor of your demon court now?"
"Xiao Fu will tell you, sir, but hope you won’t spread it, otherwise if Xiao Fu doesn’t die today, the end will be very miserable..."
