So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 286

Chapter 286: Maoshan

“That’s right. Until now, we are sure that these things are related to the Great Demons’ Alliance. Before that, Baoze was completely confused. Why did this happen?” Lightning King’s deep voice boomed. “Because the appearance of the Great Demons’ Alliance was very sudden. Before that, there was no information or any news about the organization. It seemed to appear out of nowhere. Stealthily, it has grown to such a terrible extent.”

“No, no forces will appear out of thin air. Has King ever thought that the Great Demons’ Alliance may be composed of several forces? Maybe they could be foreign forces too. Also, listening to this name, I always feel that it has something to do with the Great Deities Palace.”

“You want to say that this is a group of forces set up for the Great Deities Palace?”

“Yeah.” Li Xianyu nodded.

“Don’t be so arbitrary until things are clear.” Lightning King didn’t agree with Li Xianyu. “I thought about it before, but I changed my mind last night. It’s true that Baoze can’t include the information of all demon descendants in the archives. The experts of Taoism and Buddhism who live in recluse, the foreign species expert who lives in the mountains and forests who doesn’t communicate with human beings, the trump card master secretly cultivated by all the families, etc., which constitute the dark web of demon descendants.”

“However, the Great Demons’ Alliance sent out two people who did not lose to the Ten Gods of Baoze in terms of power. This is not their entire strength. This is a foundation that no one is prepared against. At first glance, it seems reasonable that several forces are united. But if they come together because of the Great Deities Palace, why did they cause such a big disturbance in Central China?”

“Moreover, in April this year, the news of the opening of the Great Deities Palace has not been widely known, and even the Great Deities Palace did not have any sign of opening at that time.”

“It makes sense, unless someone knows in advance that the Great Deities Palace will be opened…” Li Xianyu reacted fiercely.

“What’s the matter?”

“Nothing.” He shook his head, and an incredible bold thought sprang out of his mind.

“At the end of the Forum Conference, you are going to visit Central China. This investigation mission will be entrusted to you,” Lightning King ordered coldly.

“Ah? I don’t know how to check. If anyone was checking before, let him continue to check.” Li Xianyu was stunned.

“Of course, other people are also checking, which does not hinder our multi-line operation. This year’s key task is to investigate the Great Demons’ Alliance and deal with the opening of the Great Deities Palace.”

“I have just finished a series of tasks, and I wanted to have a good rest after the Forum Conference.” Li Xianyu and Great-Grandma had been running all over the country. They were tired of travelling. They hadn’t been back to Shanghai for a whole month. The sofa at home was probably dusty.

“It’s like this. Our commissioner has been checking for a long time, but he has never been able to find more useful information. Every time he has a clue, it would be cut off by the other side. I can’t help but ask you to step out,” Lightning King continued helplessly.

Li Xianyu was flattered. “King, you also have a deep understanding of my wit and intelligence?”

“I value your passive ability more,” Lightning King said bluntly. “Of course, I appreciate your intelligence too.”

Xiao Ming, get out! Li Xianyu wanted to roar.

“I won’t treat you badly. The minimum bonus for this mission is 100 points and the maximum is 600. The highest reward this year will be because of this task.”

Gulp~ The long legged beauty swallowed her saliva.

“And it’s on a per pax basis, not in total,” Lightning King added.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady teared up in greed.

“Oh, Battle Lady, don’t take part in this task. Your level is not enough. The Great Demons’ Alliance is too strong. This time, I will let some of the Ten Gods of Baoze go… Although it’s too early to say all these, I have unparalleled confidence in Li Xianyu’s passive ability.”

“You’re just a senior employee, and the company doesn’t want to sacrifice such excellent talents, such as you,” he said.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady patted her chest and said, “King, I request to participate. I am willing to bleed for the company, just like I was willing to offer oil for our country. If there’s any danger, I’ll run away first hand. No one can catch up with me.”

Lightning King squinted. “So, you just want the points, right?”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was speechless.

“You have done so many tasks with him, and you haven’t learned your lesson? Your resuscitation records these two months has surpassed that of the past two years. What gives you the illusion that your Eight Characters are so good? Who gave you the courage to accumulate points safely and without risk, Qin Baobao?” Lightning King retorted.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was speechless.

“There are still a few photos you can take a look at. Continue. Go back…” Lightning King declared.

Li Xianyu, in accordance with his words, looked at the photos at the back. From the perspective of photography angles, it was taken by a UAV. Below was a piece of scorched earth, and the earth was full of cracks and potholes. It was like having just experienced the baptism of war, and it was also like an earthquake just passed.

“This is the scene of last night’s battle,” Lightning King continued.

“So… terrible?” Li Xianyu’s eyes gaped.

This kind of destructive power was comparable to the astonishing stroke by Priest Wang Chen at the Forum Conference.

“Now you know the horror of the Great Demons’ Alliance. There are seven top S-level experts gathered on the scene. It’s nothing to say that a mountain would probably be destroyed. However, most of the damage was caused by San Wu. Our fight with the Great Demons’ Alliance did not last long, and was interrupted by San Wu forcibly.”

“San Wu?”

“Well, the company assigned her three hundred high explosive grenades, which was just for the opening of the Great Deities Palace. But last night, she used it all.”

When it came to last night’s battle, Lightning King felt shocked just listening to the happenings. “At least half of the injuries inflicted to God of Apes and the rest were caused by San Wu. No one can evade her precise strike, they can only resist. There’s a reason for the company to restrict the ability of San Wu. Bricks are still OK. If the high explosive grenades are used, with her wits, everyone would be destroyed. However, the Great Demons’ Alliance and the God of War are worse off. After all, they are the ones that San Wu targeted.”

“It’s no wonder that before me, she had been on her own, and everyone didn’t want to form a team with her.” Li Xianyu’s heart was full of sorrow.

The brick on the rooftop that day was still fresh in his memory. The duel between the experts could cripple him, solely due to their abilities.

“Originally, I wanted to punish San Wu. Later, I asked Wang Lao’er. It was all because the God of War was too vile with his words, mentioning San Wu’s emotional baggage. At that time, Tentacle Demon was seriously injured and dying. San Wu lost control immediately.”

Yes, it’s very in line with the style of my harem… Li Xianyu covered his face silently.

None of his harem was normal. Even the most normal, Thunderbolt Battle Lady, was a violent maniac. If she went into combat mode, she dared to even fight Great-Grandma. Her fighting was relentless as well. When fighting for the treasure of the Demonic Priest, Li Peiyun had a deep understanding of this.

Li Xianyu knew that this was a mental illness that the long legged beauty had. Her childhood experience made her unable to help, and she hated her inability to take revenge. So, every time she fought, she would disregard her life and fight the enemy to relieve her guilt.

Lightning King told him to have a good rest and left the ward.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady sat by the bed, frowning.

“Want to follow me?” Li Xianyu took a look at her.

The long legged beauty nodded. “Yeah, but King is right. It’s too dangerous to follow you. There is only one life. If I lose it…”

Li Xianyu interrupted. “If your life is gone, you’ll be back in the next life. It’s only about a matter of decades. If money is gone, it’s really gone.”

It made sense…

“Pui!” Thunderbolt Battle Lady spat at him.

“If you want to make money and don’t want to risk your life, there’s a way to go,” Li Xianyu said with a bad smile.

“Say it,” Thunderbolt Battle Lady requested curiously.

“Sit next to me.”

The long legged beauty moved the chair closer, tilted her head and looked at him.

“I mean, sit on me.”

“I’m beside you…” Thunderbolt Battle Lady thought, got up and sat on the edge of the bed. “Like this?”

“Well, let’s talk about it later. I’m a little sleepy. I’ll go to sleep first.” Li Xianyu leaned his body and put her head on her thigh. It was warm, soft and elastic. If every insomniac in the world could have such a pillow, they would be able to spend every slow and long night comfortably.

He had bled too much, more than the total amount of a woman’s period in a year, and the blood contained his self-healing effect. He was the same as San Wu. His power had been overused and he needed to rest.

“Hello, who allowed you to take advantage of me?” Thunderbolt Battle Lady pinched his face.

“Only Battle Lady is worth me doing that,” Li Xianyu whispered.

“What a sweet little mouth. Honey on it?” Thunderbolt Battle Lady murmured.

After a while, Li Xianyu breathed evenly and seemed to be asleep. Thunderbolt Battle Lady lightly nudged his shoulder once and got a murmur like response: “Huh?”

“Do you want me to be your girlfriend?” Thunderbolt Battle Lady whispered.

When she asked this question, she stared at Li Xianyu. If he was sober, he would not admit it.

“No…”

This answer was a big blow to Thunderbolt Battle Lady, who bit her lip.

“Great Deities Palace…” said Li Xianyu.

The long legged beauty sighed.

…

Maoshan, Jiangsu Province.

Maoshan was the birthplace of Shangqing Sect. It was called “Shangqing’s Headquarters” by Taoism. It had the reputation of being the territory’s most blessed place.

There were numerous branches of Shangqing Sect. Liuyun temple was one of the branches of Shangqing Sect. However, their relationship was distant and they had separated.

The largest branch was called Maoshan Sect. In fact, Maoshan Sect was still Shangqing Sect. It was only because Maoshan Sect was more known to the world.

The scenic spots open to tourists included nine peaks, nineteen springs, twenty-six caves and twenty-eight pools, with peaks, clouds and mist. There was a pleasant climate, dense rocks on the mountain, deep and circuitous karst caves of various sizes, scattered holy springs and pools, criss-cross streams, and green trees covering the mountain. Green was aplenty, and the scenery was stunning.

Further into the mountains, tourists would not be able to enter. Only the orthodox disciples of Shangqing Sect were allowed to enter.

At eight o’clock in the morning, Dan Chenzi was carrying a wine pot. The mouth of the pot was wrapped with bright red spikes. The other end of the spikes was tied on his wrist.

“Senior Dan Chenzi!”

“Senior Dan Chenzi…”

When passing by, all the disciples of Shangqing Sect, regardless of gender, age and size, would address him by “Senior.”
