Urban All-Round Master

Continued laughing: "Old man, this matter has nothing to do with you. This time, breaking into the Demon Ancestor Cave was our intrusion. Please tell us the direction of the demoness, and we will certainly reward you generously one day!"

"Humph! A dog that has learned to speak human words wants to act wildly!" Unexpectedly, the handsome guy’s words instantly angered the old man. The old man snorted heavily and said, "I won’t argue with you. Leave quickly, and today’s matter will be considered closed. But if you insist on not leaving, don’t blame me for not giving you face."

"Yo! You dead old man, you’re really arrogant, huh? More arrogant than me, Da Ao. What’s up? Do you want to kill everyone here? Ha, old man, I’ll tell you straight, we’ve seen the Eastern Kings many times and killed so many that our hands went soft. I’m advising you kindly, don’t refuse my goodwill."

"Oh? According to you, should I just hand over that lady and present her to you personally?" The old man let out two cold laughs.

"The Demon Ancestor Cave has always been indifferent to worldly affairs, but worldly affairs must not break the rules of the Demon Ancestor Cave. If you insist on taking the difficult path, then I can only accompany you."

"Damn! You dead old man, you’re pretty tough, huh? What’s so bullish about you? You don’t even dare to show your face, yet you think you can scare me, Da Ao? Do you think Da Ao is easy to intimidate?" The handsome guy, hearing this, found the old man quite stubborn.

Originally, the escape of the Taihuang Demon from its grasp was an evil mood suppressed for some time. Now encountering such a stubborn old man, one can’t help but feel difficult.

"It seems there’s no room for negotiation, is there?" The old man’s voice gradually turned icy.

Then, unbeknownst to anyone, he used some method in secret, causing the surrounding smoke to become heavier. As the white smoke spread, one could barely see within a ten-meter radius.

"Dead old man, you better understand you’ve offended us. Believe it or not, I’ll level this Demon Ancestor Cave to the ground!" The handsome guy snarled, caring for no one’s face. Originally, his cultivation was at the Semi-Saint level; who could suppress him other than a Saint?

"Then I’d really like to see how you plan to level my Demon Ancestor Cave to the ground!"

"You old bastard, you have no respect, do you even know who the demoness you’re hiding is?"

"In the Demon Ancestor Cave, it doesn’t matter who it is or what grievances there are between you. If I can mediate, I will; but if not, I can only ask you to leave."

"Damn! You immortal, you’re pulling a temper now, huh?" The handsome guy was so angry his dog’s face turned ashen.

"Since that’s the case, there’s no point wasting words with him. Today, Taihuang Demon’s fate is determined by our Holy Hall!" As for Zhan Long, he doesn’t care who the old guardian of the Demon Ancestor Cave is.

He only knows that by killing Taihuang Demon, he can report back. Otherwise, after chasing Taihuang Demon so many times, wouldn’t it be a joke? Now, the Holy Hall has numerous people, and Zhan Long alone commands countless men.

If they knew Zhan Long failed so many times, they wouldn’t secretly laugh their teeth off.

"Everyone, stay close together, don’t separate too much, lest the smoke separates our contact." The old man instructed everyone.

But hidden in the dark, the Taihuang Demon smirked coldly watching this scene. This was the Demon Ancestor Cave; even if the people of the Holy Hall were strong, under the confusion of direction and unfamiliar ground, they would suffer greatly.

Moreover, this guardian of the Demon Ancestor Cave possesses the strength of an Eastern King. Without a Great Power involved, it’s almost impossible to defeat him.

"Holy Hall, I, Taihuang Demon, am surely at irreconcilable odds with you!" After coldly pondering this in her mind, she dared not stay any longer, though the old man’s cultivation was strong, mishaps could happen.

If that happens, she’d be in trouble again; better to seize the chance to escape rather than worry about how their battle turns out.

Yet after walking out of the Smoke Barrier Forest, Taihuang Demon found the primordial energy immensely abundant, stirring thoughts of not leaving too quickly.

"Why is the primordial energy so abundant here in the Smoke Barrier Forest? Is there an extraordinary treasure hidden deep within?" Taihuang Demon’s thin, cold Liu Mei furrowed slightly. After all, a peerless Demon Ancestor was once buried here, and Liu Shen in life forged a unique fierce soldier, now in Lin Zifeng’s hands.

Indeed, wouldn’t an extraordinary strong Demon Ancestor leave behind some supreme treasure?

Thinking of this made Taihuang Demon more convinced that there must be a treasure left by the Demon Ancestor deep in the Smoke Barrier Forest; otherwise, the primordial energy wouldn’t be so abundant.

The Demon Ancestor Cave should be a place of peril where survival is unlikely, but now, for Taihuang Demon, it’s become a land of opportunity.

Taking advantage of the guardian’s battle with the Holy Hall experts, perhaps this was a heaven-sent opportunity for her!

Taihuang Demon’s face turned pale, wielding the Heartless Sword, she stepped slowly into the depths of Smoke Barrier Forest, especially toward the area where primordial energy was most plentiful, moving steadily.

As she emerged from the Smoke Barrier Forest, she was greeted by a vast, murky swamp with dense gray fog drifting above. With the naked eye, it was hard to discern the nature of the terrain ahead.

Within these boundless swamps, there’s an air of death, eerie white bones recently deceased, crawling with terrifying maggots, with a stench pervading deeply, even smelling like it’s seeping into one’s body.

In the murky, muddy swamp, there weren’t just fresh bones but some that seemed dead for countless years, already covered in black moss.

Considering the obscuring mist and invisible horizon, Taihuang Demon’s legs trembled slightly, unsure how far the path ahead was. Who could predict how many miles she might have to travel before exhaustion claimed her?

At the moment, Taihuang Demon continuously contemplated and remained silent.

Since the source of primordial energy lay beyond the swamp’s edge, should it truly be a treasure, it would be greatly advantageous for Taihuang Demon.

But the problem remained: how could she traverse this terrifying swamp?

Finally, Taihuang Demon decided to take the gamble; often, whether one can prosper is echoed in the saying ’fortune is sought in risk.’ Without venturing into perilous places, how could prosperity be attained?

Throwing the Heartless Sword into the swamp, Taihuang Demon’s delicate form leaped lightly, standing atop the sword blade, using her internal primordial energy to propel the War Sword deeper into the swamp.

The Demon Ancestor’s treasure, whether it can change Taihuang Demon’s fate, depends on this time.

(Thanks, brother, for your reward. Huahua saw it. Also, who will obtain the Demon Ancestor’s treasure?)
