Chapter 332: Just Fished Out

The packrat thought that she had only gone out to catch a fish.
Little did she know that because of what happened today, she had become a little immortal in the eyes of the people of the East Continent’s Imperial City.
Miraculously, the packrat’s matter also improved MO Beiyuan’s reputation.
Yun Ran had figured out the logic of these people. It was the same concept as the big and small evil spirits from before.
MO Beiyuan was a big evil spirit, so his child was a little evil spirit and not a good person.
By the same logic, Sweetcake was now a little immortal who had captured the river ghost. As her father, MO Beiyuan had an additional halo of being a good person.
In the past, the citizens of the Imperial City would take a detour when they passed by the Yuan Mansion. Now, they even dared to bring things to the entrance of the Yuan Mansion to thank the little immortal.
Yun Ran looked at the “little immortal” sleeping with her belly exposed, and a smile appeared in her eyes.
This little packrat thought that she had slipped out to play. She did not know at all that she had done something amazing.
Bun was probably frightened by Sweetcake’s sneaky escape. He stopped playing with pills and poisons and kept an eye on his sister all day.
He was afraid that her sister would run away with Shen Yu again.
Even when Sweetcake was sleeping, he had to watch over her.
Because the little packrat had become nervous, Yan Qi, who usually had an extremely low presence, was also standing guard outside their door.
At this moment, Shen Yu no longer had the chance to be alone with Sweetcake.
As soon as he appeared, several pairs of eyes were staring at him.
Yun Ran was caught between laughter and tears when she saw how guarded they were against Shen Yu.
“You don’t have to stare at Shen Yu like that.”
If it was only Shen Yu, he would not be able to pass through the layers of guards in the mansion.
The key was still her little packrat.
However, her little packrat had already promised her that she would obediently stop running around.
Yun Ran coaxed the packrat to sleep. M/hen she was free, she asked MO Beiyuan about the river ghost.
The river ghost was indeed a demonic cultivator. He had been doing evil in the waters near the Imperial City for so many years.
He had probably killed hundreds of people.
He had been hiding in the dark and would only appear at night to capture people.
Unexpectedly, he would end up in the hands of a child.
When the people of the 12 Divisions investigated this river ghost, they discovered that although he was a demonic cultivator, the demonic aura on his
body had been completely hidden. It could not help but remind them of the destruction of the Myriad Poison Valley.
In other words, this demonic cultivator might have consumed a medicinal pill that could hide demonic qi to escape the search of the 12 Divisions.
MO Beiyuan used some methods and successfully obtained some information from the river ghost.
It turned out that there was a boss above this river ghost. His boss was also a demonic cultivator with spiritual power that was above that of the river ghost.
The river ghost had captured living people by the river all these years and had given them all to his boss.
His boss was called “Blood Chef” and was one of the Eight Divine Fiends.
In addition, the river ghost had indeed eaten a medicinal pill to hide his demonic aura. It was this Blood Chef who had bestowed it to him.
Hearing him finish, Yun Ran encountered her knowledge blind spot again. “The
Eight Divine Fiends? The Blood Chef?”
MO Beiyuan lowered his voice and explained patiently, “The orthodox sects of the five countries have their own sects. The demonic cultivators also know that they can only become stronger and compete with the sects by forming their own sects. The Eight Divine Fiends are a faction formed by demonic cultivators. They are formed by eight great devils. These eight people can be considered the top existences among the demonic cultivators in recent years. Blood Chef is one of them. In addition, there’s Shopkeeper Jin, Beauty Bone Lady, Earth Buddha, Mad Scholar, Corpse Controller, and General Evil..”
