"It seems this journey should co to an end," Lu Yu murmured to himself, gazing at the glittering treasure before him.
"What a pity, so much treasure, and not a single piece I dare take," Lu Yu looked at the treasure with pained eyes, his expression filled with reluctance.
But in the end, he dared not steal any of the treasures. Golden Horn King and Silver Horn King had a mission to fulfill, which allowed them to take the treasures to the lower realm. If soone else took the treasures of the Grand Supre Elderly Lord, they probably wouldn’t even know how they died.
At that mont, ticuluos Ghost and Clever Worm ca to visit their forr boss, puzzled as to why Lu Yu was so obsessed with guarding the treasury.
"You two are here!" Lu Yu asked with a smile.
"Boss, why are you always guarding this boring treasury? It’s better to co out with us. These past few days, we’ve been contending with those jerks from the North Mountain for first place. It’s been quite lively," the two little demons excitedly told Lu Yu about the situation outside.
Lu Yu listened with a smile to the descriptions of the two little demons without interrupting them.
It wasn’t until their excitent had subsided that they noticed their boss looked different today, seemingly filled with an imposing aura similar to the Great King’s.
"Boss, you look so imposing today, how did you do it?" they asked curiously.
"Just practice hard," he replied.
Upon hearing Lu Yu’s words, the faces of the two little demons fell. Asking them to practice diligently was like asking them to die; that tedious practice held no comparison to the vibrant life they lived.
Seeing this, Lu Yu chuckled lightly. Everyone had their own ambitions. One glance at ticuluos Ghost and Clever Worm would tell you they were the sort of people with no great aspirations. To them, just passing each day peacefully was great happiness.
Of course, this was also the ntality of most little demons, which was why they constantly sought the protection of powerful Demon Kings—to maintain a stable life.

"Ah, you two lazy bones, co here!" Lu Yu called the two bewildered little demons over and tapped their foreheads with his finger.
"I’ve left a mark on you, to save your lives in the future," Lu Yu said with a smile.
At this, the two little demons sensed that sothing was amiss. Their boss was very unusual today.
Then, to their stupefaction, Lu Yu used the Water Jitsu, disappearing from the spot in an instant, leaving only a pool of water, neither too large nor too small.
"This is bad, the boss has turned into water!" ticuluos Ghost imdiately burst into tears, thinking Lu Yu had been ambushed and transford into a pool of water, just like the Centipede King who was taken into the gourd by the Great King.
The two little demons suddenly cried out loud, their crying drawing the attention of Golden Horn King and Silver Horn King, who were resting in their cave. They walked into the treasury with an impatient tone, asking, "What’s all this crying about, what’s the decency in that?"
ticulous Ghost and Clever Worm quickly stifled their sobs and relayed to the arriving Golden Horn King and Silver Horn King what had just occurred.
As soon as they finished speaking, Golden Horn King and Silver Horn King rapidly approached the spot where Lu Yu had left the water mark.
"This water mark seems to be from an escape skill. There’s sothing wrong with this Lu Da," said Golden Horn with a furrowed brow.

"I knew there was sothing fishy about this fellow, not enjoying his good days and instead craving the job of guarding the treasure vault. Turns out he had a hidden agenda all along," Silver Horn said in a tone laced with a hint of anger.
These words reminded Golden Horn, who instantly dashed into the depths of the treasure vault, ignoring the ordinary treasures and looking directly towards the usual places where the most precious treasures were kept.
Seeing that several treasures remained undisturbed, still radiating their treasure light, Golden Horn couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
"Big brother, what are you worried about? Such treasures are not sothing he could take," said the Silver Horned King nonchalantly.
Golden Horn gestured for the little demons to withdraw and said solemnly, "We can’t be careless. It’s true that no one dares to steal the Grand Supre Elderly Lord’s magical treasures, but in this vast world, anything is possible. If soone with the ans did steal the treasures, how would we explain that to the Grand Supre Elderly Lord?"
"The Grand Supre Elderly Lord is revered as a Heavenly Saint. There are only a handful in all three realms who are so honored. If soone took the treasures, I reckon the Grand Supre Elderly Lord would know the mont he opened his eyes."
"That may be, but we would still be guilty of negligence. Better to be cautious," Golden Horn finally reminded his younger brother.
"However, this Lu Daye managed to hide amongst us without detection, and his skill in the transformative arts is not unknown in the three realms. It’s just that I couldn’t fathom his intentions for coming here. I just checked the treasure vault, and nothing was missing," said the Golden Horn King, puzzled by Lu Yu’s motives.
"Big brother, isn’t this a good thing? As for his other motives, what does that have to do with us brothers? It’s not easy to descend to the lower realm; we might as well enjoy ourselves," the Silver Horned King said with a laugh.
And the Lu Daye they ntioned had already ridden the clouds towards Huaguo Mountain in the Eastern Victorious Divine Continent.
By the ti Lu Yu anxiously arrived at Huaguo Mountain, he found that everything was as usual. Monkeys frolicked among the trees, countless mountain flowers blood throughout the wilderness, and a variety of small animals lived on this land, all teeming with vitality.
Seeing this scene, the worry in Lu Yu’s heart imdiately dissipated, and after calming his emotions, he frowned and approached Marshals Ma and Liu to ask, "What happened exactly, to crush the jade talisman?"
"Reporting to Mr. Lu, it wasn’t us who crushed it; it was our Great King, he’s the one who did it," replied Marshals Ma and Liu hurriedly.
"The Monkey has returned?" Lu Yu was puzzled, but after calculating the ti, he understood that he had been sent back to Huaguo Mountain.
So he asked with a smile, "How is your Great King’s mood?"
"Don’t even ntion it; he’s very angry, and we don’t know what happened. None of us dare to get too close to him," replied the Marshals, frowning.
"Alright, it’s nothing serious. You can rest easy. I’m going to go find him," Lu Yu said with a smile.
Seeing Lu Yu’s deanor, the Marshals were finally reassured. Since Mr. Lu said it was nothing, then it surely was nothing. As a result, they unwound their brows and went back to looking after the unruly little monkeys in the forest.
Lu Yu then made his way to the summit of Huaguo Mountain, an exercise as familiar to him as the back of his hand. He knew that the Monkey, when in a bad mood, would often co here to gaze at the sea.
As expected, there he was, the Monkey sitting on a large rock with a look of deep lancholy, staring blankly at the vast sea on the horizon, lost in thought.
"Yo! What’s happened to make the Great Sage Equalling Heaven so disconsolate?" Lu Yu said teasingly with a laugh.
