Green Pine Town.
Located to the east of Central State, it was one of the towns that first pledged allegiance to Yan Country a year ago.
Surrounded by mountains, quiet and peaceful, the uneven green slatestone roads were lined with bustling taverns and inns.
The sunlit verdant pine forest immersed people in the simple atmosphere, extremely comfortable and leisurely.
“Have you heard? It’s not very peaceful in the nearby mountains. At night, you can often hear ghostly cries and wolf howls. I guess it must be demons at work.”
In Laifu Tavern, a dusty-looking merchant drank a cup of tea in thirst and sighed.
His words soon gained the agreement of others.
“That’s right. I thought Blackwind Cave would be quiet after a year, but I didn’t expect there to be demons again. And the sects don’t take action.”
“Don’t you mention it. I’ve noticed that the cultivators of the sects nowadays are getting more and more common. Before, when I traveled around, seeing one would be an event I’d brag about for days. Now, it seems like every few days I see one. I don’t know what they are doing.”
“The world is in chaos. When immortals fight, mortals suffer. I just hope that life gets better and Yan Country’s taxes can be reduced next year.”
Among the seated tea drinkers and travelers who chatted about their recent experiences.
These conversations, however, were overheard by a man in a white robe sitting in a corner.
He looked quite ordinary, and sitting opposite him was a woman with a graceful figure but an unsightly face.
“Husband, what are you thinking about?”
Yu Qinghan looked at Zhao Huai as he pondered, her beautiful eyes full of curiosity.
“Could it be that you were really sidelined by their words? The matter of taxes is not up to them. Xia Country’s current taxation is not much, it’s already several times less than during my father’s reign, yet there are still people calling for tax reduction.”
Zhao Huai shook his head, his eyes doubting, “I’m not worried about taxes.
What I’m more concerned about is Blackwind Cave, as they mentioned.” “What’s wrong with Blackwind Cave?”
“The Blackvvind Cave I mentioned before is a place where demons reside. A year ago, I specifically came here to slay demons, because it was extremely close to Jinzhou, so I had to exterminate them. At that time, I encountered two Demon
Kings who were very hard to deal with.”
Zhao Huai explained.
“Two Demon Kings, equivalent to two Golden Cores, could you handle them at that time?”
Yu Qinghan showed a surprised look in her eyes.
“It was thanks to the help of the Immortal Yearning Sect. Otherwise, things might not have gone so smoothly.”
Zhao Huai’s mind suddenly flashed the image of Lu Wanqiu.
A wonderful woman with snow-white long legs.
She had also helped him a lot. A year has passed now, and he wondered how she was doing.
He had set off from the Spiritual Mountains and entered Yan Country’s territory.
It just so happened that his route back would take him past Blackwind Cave,
Immortal Yearning Sect, and Jinzhou.
Truth be told, Zhao Huai quite wanted to go back and have a look.
Because the Eternal Taoist Temple Master mentioned something to him in private.
His current Heavenly Fate has been concealed, and he could not be tracked by ordinary Metamorphosis Stage masters.
Even the Devil Lord himself couldn’t do it.
To find him, they had to rely on the most primitive method.
Using their eyes.
As long as they weren’t seen by the hidden disciples of the evil way, then everything would be fine.
He was well prepared for this trip down the mountain.
“Now that Blackwind Cave has reignited, there must be something strange going on. ”
Zhao Huai stroked his chin, contemplating.
Logically speaking, since he had already sealed the bloody pool and taken away the mysterious heart, the legacy of the powerful demons in Blackwind Cave shouldn’t remain, so how could there still be demons settling there?
Very suspicious indeed.
“Husband, do you want to go and have a look?”
Yu Qinghan’s face turned to a pockmarked one, a slight modification that made Zhao Huai feel uncomfortable.
He nodded, “Yes, if there are really demons, it would be good to eliminate them for the surrounding towns, it could be considered getting rid of a threat.”
Now, with his own strength, if he were to face those two Demon Kings again, without drawing his sword, he could easily defeat them with one hand.
There was no need to worry about safety.
How could the broken legacy of Blackwind Cave still breed a Demon King-like existence?
“Let’s go.”
Zhao Huai left a few pieces of silver on the table and settled the bill.
The figure of the couple quickly disappeared in the tavern.
Nobody around the drinker noticed.
Blackvvind Mountain.
The towering trees in the lush forest blocked the direct sunlight, giving people a feeling of a separate world. The dense foliage made the sunlight appear green or golden, creating a mottled pattern of light and shadow on the ground.
Under a towering tree…
A brown-haired wild boar lay sprawled out across the shady grass, snoring loudly.
Just then, a black bird-headed monster holding a long spear spoke in a sharp voice, full of frustration, “The King has ordered you to patrol the mountain, and yet you sleep here soundly.”
After speaking, he kicked the wild boar in the butt.
“Oink oink…”
The brown-haired wild boar jumped up, and getting to its feet, lazily rubbed its eyes, still drowsy, “I know I was wrong. Why did you kick me in the butt…”
“Speaking of which, nobody comes to Blackwind Mountain. People outside the mountain are afraid of us. I don’t understand why we need to patrol.” The brown-haired wild boar, with hazy eyes, spoke tiredly.
“Why so much nonsense? Do you want to be kicked out? If not for Blackwind Mountain, where else could you go?”
The black bird monster said in a sharp voice.
“Indeed.”
“Hurry up, the Boar King has something for us. If you’re late, you won’t get any essence and blood.. Do you want to be whipped?”
