"The consensus is definitely kill without mercy!"
Liu Da Rong showed a cold and stern expression. "In times , the Demon Race infiltrating here is undoubtedly with bad intentions."
"Is there a reward for discovering the Demon Race?" Shen Wang asked with a smile.
"Don’t worry, there will be some merit, depending on how significant the threat from these Demons is."
Liu Da Rong said, "So, where are those Demons hiding? They wouldn’t be in the Inner Sect, would they?"
"Not sure about the Inner Sect, but they’re in Hundred Refinements City."
Shen Wang said, "You can take all the credit for this; just share some benefits with me later. I don’t want to be in the spotlight."
"You really see things clearly, kid."
Liu Da Rong couldn’t help but laugh. "But if it’s a great accomplishment, it’s best for you to claim the credit yourself, as my position is different."
"If you claim the credit, no one would dare to withhold anything, right?"
Shen Wang remained uninterested. "If possible, create some conditions for Yun Shu to return."
Zheng Yunshu showed a thoughtful expression. "Alright, if the merits are sufficient, certain people can’t say much, and since the threat from the Demon Race is significant, the Sect Leader has already forbidden unreasonable internal conflicts, focusing outward instead, so it’s a good opportunity."
"They’re located next to my residence in Hundred Refinements City. Besides a few Demon Kings, there’s probably a Demon Emperor. If you’re going to act, it’s best to capture them all in one go."
Shen Wang described the situation.
Liu Da Rong’s face changed slightly. "A Demon Emperor as well, the audacity of these beasts is truly outrageous. If we let such a group of Demon Beasts continue to lurk, the consequences would be unimaginable."
He spoke seriously, "Be careful. It’s best not to stay there. I’ll go see the Sect Leader and discuss a strategy."
Liu Da Rong indeed took action immediately and left to see the Sect Leader.
Shen Wang left quietly.
No one would expect an Inner Sect Disciple, apparently only at Foundation Establishment, to discover the lurking of a group of Demon Kings and even a Demon Emperor.
Having completed the refinement of a handy weapon, with nothing else to do for the moment, Shen Wang took some time to visit Zheng Bingzhong’s home.
His wife saw him and smiled, "Junior Brother Wang, please come in."
"How is Senior Brother Zheng’s health?"
"Much better. He can live normally now, thanks to your Spiritual Medicine, Junior Brother."
Zheng Bingzhong’s wife expressed profound gratitude.
Shen Wang nodded, then entered the house and saw Zheng Bingzhong, who was sitting in a chair reading a book.
Zheng Bingzhong was wearing a light yellow long robe, with much more white hair, and his aura was still very weak.
Seeing Shen Wang, Zheng Bingzhong showed joy, "My savior, you’ve come."
"Savior is too much; you’re still in a state where you won’t last long."
Shen Wang had quickly assessed Zheng Bingzhong’s condition secretly and understood his situation well.
Although the Water of Life had kept his body vital and prevented the collapse of his Divine Soul, it only maintained a rather weak level.
His status was roughly like that of an ordinary person and would only allow him to live another thirty to fifty years, which is less than one-tenth of his original lifespan.
"I am quite satisfied, having the chance to see the children grow up."
Zheng Bingzhong had a good mindset, showing no sign of sadness. It was apparent he had faced death once and opened up to it.
"There’s a chance for a cure."
Shen Wang said, words he could confidently speak after becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
"You’ve done enough; you don’t need to risk anything more for me; it’s not worth it."
Zheng Bingzhong shook his head, "As long as everyone is safe and sound, that’s enough."
"Within my capabilities, I will find the Soul Condensing Grass for you and won’t act rashly."
Shen Wang certainly wouldn’t take unnecessary risks.
The two chatted for a while. Zheng Bingzhong invited him to stay for a meal. As they were finishing, Shen Wang sensed a fluctuation indicating that strong cultivators from the Hundred Refining Sect had moved, so he excused himself.
Standing halfway up the mountain and looking out into the distance, Shen Wang’s gaze fell on Hundred Refinements City.
On the surface, nothing seemed to have changed, but Shen Wang knew the strong ones from the Hundred Refining Sect had already acted.
"They’re about to begin!"
Shen Wang calmly descended the mountain. Near the Demon Race’s courtyard, not many people could be seen for the moment, but in the shadows circling around, no less than ten Golden Cores had already surrounded the place.
He passed by as usual.
In a tall building a mile away, the sect leader, with a full head of silver hair, saw this scene and said to Liu Da Rong beside him, "Your apprentice is quite remarkable; have him withdraw before action begins."
He now understood that Shen Wang was involved in this matter and could be one of the discoverers of this information.
Liu Da Rong felt somewhat speechless. Knowing that they were going to act, Shen Wang still dared to go there, was he not afraid of accidents?
A person nearby, with a gloomy look, watched as Shen Wang entered the courtyard from afar.
"Yue’Er, they are about to take action. For safety, let’s go for a walk."
After entering the door, Shen Wang said to Silver Moon.
Silver Moon came out, carrying several Storage Pouches. "I’m ready."
"You seem to be quite experienced." Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novel~fire~net
Shen Wang teased, holding Silver Moon’s hand as they walked out of the courtyard.
"Where are we going?"
"To eat something. Hundred Refinements City also has Hundred Fragrances Tower; apart from Dragon Meat, you can get most things there."
The two chatted leisurely as they left, while in the adjacent courtyard, the Dog Demon guarding the gate peeked through the door slit at Silver Moon.
"Isn’t that girl a maid? Why is the man holding her hand?"
"You don’t understand. The girl must have shared a bed with the man; her status must have changed."
The fox beside him laughed.
"Stop looking, the Emperor is back."
The Cat Demon reminded.
At the end of the street, an ordinary woman walked neither hastily nor slowly. Upon seeing Silver Moon, she even greeted them, "Congratulations to you both."
Shen Wang observed this person and had to carefully sense to detect any anomalies; this female Demon’s disguise was very skillful.
Silver Moon nodded, "Thank you."
The woman walked a couple more steps with a smile, looking at the temporary stronghold they were approaching and suddenly felt instinctively uneasy.
The surroundings seemed the same, no noticeable changes, but her instincts were never wrong; what exactly was off?
She turned to watch Shen Wang and Silver Moon leaving.
It was somewhat unusual to see the two walking together.
No, no other people could be seen nearby anymore.
Suddenly, she saw the two passing through a water curtain, and she instantly reacted, exclaiming, "Not good!"
As she exclaimed, a dome of crimson radiance suddenly appeared, enveloping the area.
She rushed towards the Array, only to be blocked by a purple meteor in front of her.
With a loud bang, the woman was shaken back, a powerful wave of Mana rippling from her body, sprouting several pure white tails from behind.
Her aged body suddenly became young and full, transforming into a beautiful woman. The air around her distorted, obscuring a clear view, but her enchanting figure alone was enough to captivate countless men.
Silver Moon turned around and looked at the Demon Emperor trapped within the Array, amazed, "A Nine-tailed Demon Fox, a Desolate Ancient Spirit Species, to think it shapeshifted and hid among the crowd."
"No wonder it wasn’t detected immediately; her skill in Illusion Technique is the pinnacle of the Demon Race, isn’t it?"
Shen Wang was also quite surprised. Before this Demoness revealed her true form, he truly couldn’t tell what kind of creature she was. The ones in the courtyard had all been seen through.
