Chapter 132: How Dare You Kill Me?

“Why are you going to the Demon Judgment Division? Master, do you want to serve?” Hu Jiujiu was a little confused.

Li Yuanqing stood up and smiled. “There should be a good show to watch tonight.”

Hu Jiujiu was a little confused and hurriedly followed behind Li Yuanqing.

The two of them walked all the way to the street. Li Yuanqing found the location of the Demon Judgment Division according to his memories from last night.

The Demon Judgment Division was a pentagonal building that looked very asymmetrical. This was probably built according to the aesthetics of the demons. For a moderate obsessive-compulsive disorder like Li Yuanqing, it was indeed a little uncomfortable.

He led Hu Jiujiu straight into the door. As soon as he entered, he saw a pair of patrolling cultivators standing in the hall.

A demon commander was standing in the middle of everyone, pacing back and forth. And from the looks of it, the demon cultivator’s expression was calm.

“Someone actually dared to capture someone from my patrol team. Just you wait, I will definitely investigate this matter!” After saying that, the demon cultivator yawned pretentiously. “Continue patrolling tonight. If anything happens, you must report it at any time!”

After saying that, the demon cultivator planned to stride away. It could be said that he did not look at the human cultivators at all.

However, from the corner of his eye, he acutely noticed Hu Jiujiu, who was naturally charming. It was obvious that she was a demon with noble bloodlines. Even human cultivators could not help but be enchanted. Not to mention the demon cultivators.

The demon cultivator stopped in his tracks and teased, “Pretty girl, where are you going? Are you interested in drinking tea with me?”

Hu Jiujiu smiled and glanced at him with her charming eyes.

The demon cultivator immediately felt his mouth go dry.

Teasing his pet in front of Li Yuanqing was not the first time. Hu Jiujiu knew that someone was going to suffer.

As expected, Li Yuanqing took a step forward. With just a faint glance at the demon cultivator, the man-eating vine had already begun to wrap around his heel.

At this moment, a demon superior from the Demon Judgment Division called out to him.

The demon cultivator looked at Hu Jiujiu reluctantly and said with a smile, “Pretty girl, I’ll give you a token the next time we meet.”

With that, the demon cultivator raised his hand and gave Hu Jiujiu a sachet. Then he strode away.

The man-eating vines underground quickly retracted.

Hu Jiujiu clicked her tongue and laughed. “This idiot didn’t even know that he almost died. He’s lucky.”

Hu Jiujiu picked up the sachet and sniffed it. Her expression immediately changed.

“Why? Is there something strange?” Li Yuanqing asked calmly.

Hu Jiujiu nodded solemnly and was about to speak. Then, Li Yuanqing interrupted her.

“We’ll talk about it later. Let’s go and ask about the situation first.”

Li Yuanqing immediately recognized that the leader was Zhao Tai’an. He quickly walked over and started a conversation.

“Brother Zhao, what’s going on?”

At this moment, Zhao Tai’an’s expression was extremely ugly. However, he did not dare to flare up because they were at the Demon Judgment Division.

Zhao Tai’an gritted his teeth and said, “It’s you, Brother Li. Recently, members of the patrol team have often disappeared for no reason while patrolling. Moreover, we brothers have been searching for a long time, but we can’t even find a shadow.

“It’s the third time this has happened recently!”

Li Yuanqing knew very well that as he had witnessed the situation last night. However, he was too far away and was discovered by the other party as soon as he approached. Therefore, he did not know who the other party was.

Li Yuanqing continued to ask, “Do the upper echelons of the Demon Judgment Division not care about this?”

Zhao Tai’an smiled sarcastically. “The upper echelons are all from the demon clans. They don’t treat us as humans at all. It doesn’t matter how many of us die. They only know how to say some polite words!

“How ironic. Even so, we humans still have to work for them!”

“Indeed…” Li Yuanqing nodded.

“I will definitely investigate the disappearance of the patrol team’s brothers! Let’s not talk about this anymore. Brother Li, why are you here?” Zhao Tai’an asked.

Li Yuanqing smiled. “I’m here to take a look. After all, I’m a human and will have to serve sooner or later. There’s no harm in understanding the work of the patrol team earlier.”

This reason was a little ambiguous, but as a human, Zhao Tai’an naturally did not suspect anything.

Zhao Tai’an cupped his hands and said seriously, “Brother Li, I’m going to bring the brothers of the patrol team to the city to investigate. Do you want to follow me?”

“Sure, since it’s us humans, I’ll follow and take a look!” After saying that, Zhao Tai’an waved at the humans behind him and everyone followed.

He silently used the Aura Divination Art. Li Yuanqing’s expression suddenly changed. He actually saw a thick aura of death on Zhao Tai’an and the other two patrolling humans. This meant that it was very likely that Zhao Tai’an would die tonight.

“Looks like Zhao Tai’an is too radical. He has already been targeted by the other party…”

Li Yuanqing was silent as he followed behind with Hu Jiujiu.

Zhao Tai’an planned to retrace the route from last night.

The day was very short, so there would be more humans on the streets. Everyone walked all the way to the center of Ping City. This was basically the territory of the demons.

Everyone carefully paid attention to the surrounding traces, wanting to find traces of their team members’ disappearance.

Suddenly, Li Yuanqing had an idea. He sensed the strange movement of the Man-eating Vine. At this moment, they had already traveled a hundred miles towards the center of the city.

Li Yuanqing looked up. This was the territory of the demons from last night.

A man-eating vine went underground to search for the vine.

A smile appeared on Li Yuanqing’s face. He decisively bade farewell to Zhao Tai’an. “Brother Zhao, I suddenly remembered that I still have something on. I’ll take my leave first.”

“Alright, take care, brother!”

Li Yuanqing led Hu Jiujiu away from the patrol team. He stood where the vines were left. This was where the black shadow from last night had disappeared. Not far ahead was the territory of the Demon Clan.

“Master, I seem to smell the same scent as this sachet again.” Hu Jiujiu frowned and took out the sachet in her hand.

Li Yuanqing took the sachet. There was a faint smell of blood in it.

Li Yuanqing’s doubts deepened. He brought Hu Jiujiu to the territory of the aristocratic families.

Two guards stood at the entrance of the territory. They were actually human cultivators.

“Stop! What do you do?” The two human guards berated.

“It’s nothing. I was just taking a walk.” Li Yuanqing smiled faintly.

“Take a walk? This is the She Clan’s territory! Human cultivators should leave as soon as possible!”

The human guard’s expression was very impatient and even carried a hint of disdain.

Li Yuanqing was so angry that he laughed. “You’re clearly a human, but you’re so calm being a dog for the demons. Haha…”

The human guard’s expression changed and he said angrily, “Who dares to behave atrociously in front of the She Clan? You’re really courting death!”

Li Yuanqing’s killing intent rose, and the Man-eating Vine under his feet erupted from the ground. It wrapped around their feet and quickly burrowed into their bones and flesh. The two human guards screamed in horror and were minced into pieces.

However, the Man-eating Vine did not dare to eat a single bite. After killing the two of them, it returned obediently. It remembered Li Yuanqing’s order clearly.

Hu Jiujiu followed silently behind.

Li Yuanqing walked up to the door expressionlessly.

[Ding! You have signed in at the periphery of the She Clan’s territory!]

[One: Fifty Domain Fragments.]

[Two: A first-grade Dharma treasure, the Purple Golden Gourd!]

“First-grade Dharma treasure?”

Li Yuanqing did not have much desire for the domain fragment now, but he was still very interested in this first-grade Dharma treasure. It might be the opportunity for him to break through to the second-grade Grotto-Heaven Realm.

“I’ll choose the Purple Gold Gourd!”

[Ding! Reward obtained. Distributed to the host’s domain!]

As soon as the system finished speaking, they heard noisy footsteps in the courtyard made of limestone. A pair of demon guards walked out. The leading demon cultivator was Lin’er, whom he had seen yesterday.

“How dare you humans kill my She Clan’s guards!”

Lin’er was surprised to see Li Yuanqing and Hu Jiujiu.

Lin’er waved her hand, indicating for her subordinates to be quiet.

“Huh? Why are you here? Is Sister here for me?”

Hu Jiujiu immediately reacted. She hurriedly nodded and said, “I was so bored that I wanted to pay a visit. I didn’t expect these two human cultivators to be so blind that I killed them!”

Li Yuanqing took a step back tacitly and stopped talking.

“So that’s how it is. Besides, it’s fine if you kill the human cultivators. However, it’s better for you to give me some face in the future. After all, it’s my dog. Please come in!”

Lin’er casually reminded Hu Jiujiu before happily inviting her in.

Li Yuanqing nodded silently. Hu Jiujiu understood. She took the lead and led Li Yuanqing through the door.

As soon as he entered the territory, Li Yuanqing saw a spirit stone mine exposed on the ground. This spirit stone mine was only the tip of the iceberg. However, Li Yuanqing could sense that this was probably the largest spirit stone mine in Black Dragon Ping City.

It was even bigger than the one in his domain.

Lin’er smiled faintly. She was only focused on talking to Hu Jiujiu and did not look at Li Yuanqing. In her opinion, this was just a human servant, no different from a beast raised by the demons.

Lin’er sat in the lobby and chatted with Hu Jiujiu.

Hu Jiujiu barely responded and chatted happily.

Lin’er had the intention to rope Hu Jiujiu in. She grabbed Hu Jiujiu’s hand and said sincerely, “Sister, we hit it off at first sight. Why don’t you sleep here tonight!”

Hu Jiujiu turned to look at Li Yuanqing, but Li Yuanqing did not react. Then it was a tacit agreement.

Hu Jiujiu nodded and pretended to be happy. “Alright, we can talk.”

At night, Hu Jiujiu was placed alone in a guest room.

Li Yuanqing could only stand outside the room and wait because he was a servant and had no right to enter the room to sleep.

Li Yuanqing meditated quietly on the spot.

Night came quickly.

The little fox with smooth fur quietly pushed open the door and looked at Li Yuanqing timidly. “Master, are we going to move?”

Li Yuanqing’s eyes opened and he stood up. The patrol team should have started patrolling by now. Zhao Tai’an and the other members of the patrol team would be hunted tonight. They were both humans, and Zhao Tai’an had good character. Li Yuanqing naturally would not watch him be killed for nothing.

Moreover, it might be related to the suppression of all human realms.

Li Yuanqing brought Hu Jiujiu along and used the Shadowless Art and Sand Escape Technique to quietly leave the She clan’s territory. He hid quietly in a corner of the shadows.

After a while, Zhao Tai’an walked past with the patrol team.

Zhao Tai’an’s face was filled with resentment. He searched for a long time but still found nothing. He no longer wanted to be loyal to the demons.

After a while, the patrol team walked past.

A long black shadow appeared from the She Clan’s territory and moved quickly in the darkness.

Li Yuanqing’s expression changed. He quietly followed behind with Hu Jiujiu.

The man-eating vines and flying ants underground were also quietly scattered around to prevent the other party from escaping.

When the patrol team walked past the She clan’s territory, the black shadow took the opportunity and spat out a scarlet tongue. It instantly imprisoned Zhao Tai’an.

Everyone was shocked. Everyone in the patrol team saw it clearly.

After Zhao Tai’an was tied up, he immediately felt all his strength draining away. He was about to be pulled away.

At this moment, countless vines with scarlet light appeared underground and wrapped around the black shadow.

Li Yuanqing raised a huge Demon Slayer Sword in his hand and slashed down. The scarlet tongue was cut off. The black shadow was shocked and hurriedly retreated. However, the back was also blocked by the densely packed Man-eating Vines and flying ants.

In front of him were Li Yuanqing and the patrol team.

Zhao Tai’an had escaped death. He hurriedly picked up the scarlet line. He took a closer look and saw that it was a slender tongue.

“Demon race! You’re a demon!” Zhao Tai’an’s expression immediately turned sinister. Everyone glared at the black shadow angrily.

The black shadow was stunned for a moment before turning into a black-cloaked human figure. His face was hidden by him, and outsiders could not tell who he was. “Hehehe… I raised you beasts myself. Do I need your permission to eat it? A beast is a beast!”

Zhao Tai’an and the patrolling humans were furious and prepared to take out their weapons.

“What? I’m a demon! How dare you touch me? Do you really dare to touch me? How could you touch me!”

When these words were spoken, Zhao Tai’an and the rest of the patrol team’s expressions froze and became extremely embarrassed.

In Black Dragon Ping City, no matter what the reason was, if they attacked the demons, they would definitely die an ugly death. The demons could do whatever they wanted.

“That’s right. Let me go obediently. Otherwise, all of you will die with me!”

After saying that, the demon cultivator sneered and planned to leave.

“Who said that I don’t dare to touch you? Not only do I dare to touch you, but I also dare to kill you!” Li Yuanqing sneered and directly took out the Demon Slayer Mother Sword formed by a hundred Demon Slayer Swords, plus the hundred plus Demon Slayer Swords surrounding him.

It slashed at the black shadow like a god.

The black shadow was shocked. His red tongue had been cut off, and his strength had decreased by a third.

The man-eating vines and flying ants also swarmed up. No matter how hard he tried to resist, he was instantly cut in half.

He couldn’t be more dead!

After killing it, Li Yuanqing put away all his weapons, leaving only the little fox squatting on his shoulder. He turned his head and smiled faintly. “Brother Zhao, no one was born to be a king, a duke, a general or a minister, let alone a mere demon!”

Zhao Tai’an was shocked and immediately admired Li Yuanqing.

Zhao Tai’an was far inferior with this boldness and straightforward methods. Everyone present felt the same way.

Zhao Tai’an waved his hand and got everyone to put away the corpses of the demon cultivator. Then, he quickly brought Li Yuanqing back to an inn.

Zhao Tai’an thought for a long time and gritted his teeth. “Brother Li, I have a secret to tell you.”

“Oh?”

“After so many years, I’ve more or less figured out some rules and secrets. The biggest secret of Black Dragon Ping City is probably in the Demon Judgment Division!”
