Chapter 365: Chapter 365: Willing to Talk After a Show of Good Faith
The Mire Marsh is located in the north of East Wangze State, near North Nuanyang State. The yellow sand from the desert blows in and, upon encountering the moist environnt, forms large patches of mud settled on the ground.
This kind of place, with its terrain and topography, already poses a significant obstacle. Even more troubleso for Dragon Country’s Secret Realm agents is that the Demon Race here is conservative and xenophobic, making them difficult to approach.
The stationed Secret Realm agents worked hard for several days, just to change their attitude from cold to neutral.
Yu Xin didn’t understand why she was sent to such a place. With her fiery temper, every ti the local Demons hurled insults at her, she couldn’t help but want to argue with them.
However, she also knew that it wouldn’t work. The terrain around here is harsh and complex, and they need these Demons as guides. The main goal should be to establish good relations.
At this mont, the person in charge here arrived, identified as 0901, a city-level chairman of the Cangyun Association.
Yu Xin admired him very much because she had been seconded to perform tasks with him before and witnessed his strength.
"Xiaoyu, I just found out a location where monsters are gathering. Let’s lead the team to handle it now. If successful, we should be able to improve our favorability by one level."
is nad Hu Neng, and he looks like an ordinary middle-aged uncle, but if you make eye contact with him, you’ll feel an invisible pressure—an aura developed through years of battle.
Yu Xin nodded and said, "I’ll get ready now."
"No."
Hu Neng said, "You need to stay here. The command has sent a ssage saying that reinforcents are coming. When they arrive, you’re responsible for receiving them. Don’t get into conflicts with the local Demons."
"I... okay."
Yu Xin reluctantly agreed. Her personality definitely wanted to join the team’s departure, but she also knew that comparatively, her strength was low, after all, her level was plainly there.
Hu Neng nodded: "Don’t be impatient. The progress on the battlefield is not even halfway through. Accumulate and settle for now; there will be opportunities later."
"Thank you, Chairman Hu," Yu Xin said.
Hu Neng nodded, turned, and led the team out.
A few hours later, Yu Xin walked in this Demon settlent, feeling a bit down from the unfriendly gazes around her.
"Where’s the promised support? Why haven’t they arrived yet?"
She muttered angrily under her breath, "I don’t even know who it is, yet I have to wait here. Such great importance."
While she was muttering, she suddenly heard a crisp and urgent bell ringing in the settlent, which only rings during major events.
Yu Xin quickly ran in the direction of the bell, only to see many fully ard Demons hurrying south.
After the bell stopped, she grabbed the little demon who rang it and asked, "What happened?"
The other party was one of the few Demons who had a good attitude towards outsiders, and he explained, "Enemies have arrived."
"Enemies?"
"Yes, don’t know what it is, but a wave of Evil Qi is rushing from the south. The chieftain called us to battle."
Yu Xin was imdiately spirited. She thought staying here wouldn’t afford her any chance to earn rits, and now unexpected credit was coming her way.
She quickly followed the Demons towards the village entrance. From a distance, she saw a mass of dark Evil Qi rushing in, and even from afar, it was frightening.
"What is that thing?"
She had never seen such strong Yin Sha Qi, especially during broad daylight.
However, none of the surrounding Demons responded to her. These natives were focused, preparing to face the charge.
They didn’t know what was coming, but for these locals living nearby, anyone entering the Mire Marsh without permission was an enemy.
If those foreigners hadn’t been sowhat sincere earlier, they would’ve already expelled them.
Rumble, rumble, rumble.
Ju Ye led the Divine Power Ghost Riders forward with a dull sound, like the tremors from an earthquake rumbling in from afar.
As their charge approached, the Demon race’s ranks beca more solemn.
As a veteran of many battles, he wouldn’t believe the opponents were there to welco them.
"Stop!"
With his shout, the entire team stopped instantly, not within the other’s attack range.
The giant Lifter trailing behind also imdiately halted, and Li Rui’s head popped out from the back: "What’s up?"
"Benefactor, there’s an enemy ahead."
"Huh?"
Li Rui raised his head to look into the distance, only to see a group of Demons ready to fight, seemingly unfriendly.
He opened the map and took a look.
"That’s odd, this is the right place, so what’s their deal?"
Li Rui was puzzled, "You all stay here, I’ll go ahead and check."
"Yes!"
All Ghost Riders stayed where they were, formations unfaltering, waiting quietly.
Li Rui went forward alone, not even bringing the giant Lifter.
There must be so misunderstanding.
He thought, as he approached the formation of the Demons alone.
As expected, seeing him approach alone, those Demons didn’t make a rash move but waited until he was within dozens of ters before one shouted: "Stop! Who are you?"
Li Rui noticed these Demons were ford from training across various species, with different appearances, all equipped with bone-made gear, fully ard, comparable to the Highland Demon Race.
Faced with the question, he hadn’t responded when Yu Xin ca out and said, "Wait, he’s with us."
Li Rui noticed that even after soone clarified, the attitude of these Demons didn’t notably change.
At this mont, an older Demon with a particularly fervent aura spoke: "You ca, but what do you intend by bringing a group of ghosts? Are you up to no good?"
Yu Xin was montarily speechless, looking at Li Rui, who straightforwardly said, "They are my subordinates."
Yu Xin covered her face with her hand.
As he expected, upon hearing those words, the Demons imdiately bristled.
"Associating with ghosts, you must be a villain. Kill him!"
Boom!!!
A Thunder Shocking Earth interrupted their incitent.
Li Rui smashed the ground behind him into a ss, then said, "I think we’d better keep things peaceful, how about it?"
This skill was quite suppressive even against famous masters from large countries, let alone this group of Demons, unlike the Wind Slave Royal Court’s large settlents.
As expected, after Li Rui showed his sincerity, these Demons imdiately beca more inclined to communicate.
"What do you want to do?"
Li Rui looked at Yu Xin: "I’m just here to find soone."
Knowing these outsiders bore no malice, a few elders whispered among themselves, then said, "You can be with her, but those ghosts are not to co in."
"Got it."
Li Rui waved his hand, and since Ju Ye and the others were military n, now without physical bodies, they didn’t need to enter this settlent.
Following Yu Xin, and under several faintly watchful gazes, he entered the village where this Demon race lived.
