Chapter 462: True Colors Revealed, Riding on the Wall
When the monsters at the banquet heard the shouting, they turned their heads and looked outside.
I saw a flashing light and a howling evil spirit over there. Not long after, a long green rainbow with a long tail flame flew to the center of the lake.
Behind him was a large group of plant and wood spirits, chasing him so hard that he was exhausted and out of breath.
The man had a handsome face, clear features, was tall and strong, and wore a simple Taoist robe and looked tired.
The Jianjia Demon King saw that he was hosting a demon race grand event and suddenly a human broke in. He had never expected this to happen and could not help but puff out his beard and glare.
"Who are you?"
The man landed, walked to the front desk and bowed.
"I am Yumuzi, a true disciple of the Zixiao Sect of the human race. I have come here to pay a special visit to you senior demon kings under the order of the sect master."
The demon kings on the stage had different expressions after hearing this. They sat still and did not move, still waiting for the host to speak first.
"Do you have an invitation to the party?"
"No."
Yumuzi replied honestly.
The old face of the Jianjia Demon King was very unpleasant. He had just been embarrassed by the troublemaker Lord Bromine Insect, and then immediately a human boy jumped out and barged in without an invitation!
Do you really think I don’t care about my reputation?
He didn't even listen to what Yumuzi said and directly gave orders to the Jindan stage monsters around him.
"What are you standing there for? Get this guy out! Why are humans coming here to join in the fun on the day of my Monster Conference?"
Yumuzi waved his hands quickly: "Wait a minute! Senior Demon King, listen to me."
However, no demon tribe listened to his muttering and started to drive him away without explanation. The reason why he was allowed to break in just now was that most of the Jindan stage demons were serving as guards at the banquet, and there were not many guarding the gate.
After all, there are so many demon kings and cave masters inside, no one would have thought that someone would dare to come and challenge them.
Now that the Jianjia Demon King was angry and gave orders, they naturally attacked in groups and worked together to blast Yumuzi out again.
Although Yumuzi was a true disciple of a great sect, he was no match for the Grass Clan. He had just barged in and before he could say anything, he was beaten out of the door with sticks.
All the monsters at the banquet were completely confused and bewildered.
We, the demon tribe, were having a great time when suddenly a human broke in and was driven away by the demon king. Was this some kind of show effect?
The Jianjia Demon King apologized to the demon kings behind him:
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all. During the Monster Assembly, a human race sneaked in. It was really because I didn't control my subordinates well. I have to take the responsibility for this mistake."
A demon king asked: "I seemed to have just heard that human kid talking about the Zixiao Sect. It seems like he has something important to discuss with us?"
The Reed Demon King curled his lips in disdain, not caring about humans' trivial matters at all.
"The Zixiao Sect is the top sect of the human race, and has nothing to do with us. The human race's independent cultivators in Luosong Mountain Range have already given us enough headaches, so why would we want to get involved with the Zixiao Sect?"
The demon kings all nodded in agreement, thinking that what he said made sense, and did not take it to heart.
"If he hadn't introduced himself as a member of the Zixiao Sect, the old man would definitely not have let him off so easily, humph!"
The Zixiao Sect's name still carries some weight in the Luosong Mountains. Although the demon kings are not afraid of it, they are also too lazy to cause any trouble. Therefore, the Jianjia Demon King did not kill them but drove them away directly.
Next, the banquet dance troupe that had been waiting outside slowly entered the venue, and the flowers and plants twisted their flexible waists and began a pleasing performance.
They were playing music and dancing inside, while outside there was a fierce fight.
Yumuzi was very depressed.
After receiving the mission from his master, he went down the mountain and headed east from the Qinling Mountains straight to the Luosong Mountains.
After coming in, I visited and searched everywhere, but still couldn't find the key.
After all, how rare is a demon king? How can you, an outsider who doesn't speak the language, find a needle in the vast forest?
However, he encountered an interesting thing during this period. He found that many monsters seemed to be gathering in one direction, so he suddenly had an idea and followed them quietly.
Coincidentally, he guessed it right!
The demon kings who are rarely seen in normal days have gathered at the demon conference held by the demon king Jianjia. This is a godsend opportunity!
He saw the demon cave masters he was tracking entering one by one, and wanted to sneak in as well, but was stopped by the plant and tree spirits guarding the gate a hundred miles away from the lake.
Fortunately, the plant and tree clan and humans were not very hostile to each other, and the wood spirit energy around Elmzi was pure and rich, so they did not fight as soon as they met.
If it were any other demon tribe, seeing that a human dared to enter the Luosong Mountains, they would probably start a fight with him without thinking twice!
Without an invitation, Yumuzi couldn't get in and could only stare anxiously outside the lake.
The demon cave masters who passed by didn't know where he came from, and it was not convenient for them to cause trouble in the territory of the Jianjia Demon King, so they ignored him. In this way, Yumuzi waited outside for three whole days!
During this time, he saw batch after batch of demons going in, and even a demon king came roaring in. He was so anxious that he wanted to go in as well, but he was stopped outside and could not enter.
The Jindan-stage monster guarding the gate gestured and explained to him that if he wanted to meet the Jianjia Demon King, he would have to wait until the demon assembly was over before he could be informed.
Yumuzi asked when it would be over, but the Jindan stage monster didn't know either. He could only say based on past experience that it depended on the monster kings' mood, and it could take three to five days at the shortest, or ten days at the longest.
He had no choice but to wait outside.
But after waiting for three days, there was still no result. Thinking of the war in the Song Dynasty, the fierce offensive of the demons, the Yanyun demons aiding and abetting the tyrant, and the death of the Yuanying stage ancestor in the sect.
I really can’t wait!
So there was the scene just now, where he risked his life to break in, but was kicked out as soon as he saw the demon king.
The group of plant spirits were extremely angry. They didn't expect that although they were kind enough to let this human wait outside, he actually broke in when they were not paying attention!
Such a huge mistake happened at the monster assembly. Afterwards, the ancestor will definitely punish them for not guarding well enough. It's all this human's fault!
Yumuzi was caught in a dilemma and could not resist, so he had to flee.
On the floating island, there are singing and dancing, and beautiful women.
The demons drank and talked happily, laughing about the past.
At this time, the collector who went to the back garden to collect grain on a mission came back to report and brought back two thousand-year-old corn monsters.
"Hahaha, fellow demon brothers, the good wine and rice you've been waiting for have finally been found! My old man's back garden has been neglected for hundreds of years, and I think a new batch of varieties has matured. Please enjoy them!"
The Reed Demon King ordered the three monsters to come forward and report on the harvest.
As a result, after reporting and checking the storage stone handed over, his face changed immediately.
"What's going on? Why are half of the grains, rice, pollen and seeds missing? What on earth do you eat?!"
The three plant spirits knelt on the ground together and claimed that they were innocent. They were living well in the back garden until a while ago when a strange human broke in for no apparent reason, made a big fuss, harvested them mindlessly, and then left after the deed was done.
This resulted in heavy losses of the harvest accumulated over hundreds of years!
Of course, they were also cautious and only mentioned the looting of their harvests, not the destruction of the sea of flowers.
The Jianjia Demon King took out two two-meter-long corn cobs from the storage stone, with confusion in his eyes.
"I remember that they used to be about 30 to 40 feet big. Why are they so small this time?"
The two thousand-year-old corn spirits crawled on the ground, not daring to say that they were thrown out as weapons in anger and were taken away by someone. Now this one is a spare.
They can only timidly claim that they have been malnourished and poorly developed over the past few hundred years.
As the other demon kings were present, the Jianjia Demon King could not dig into the matter too much, so he could only hold it for the time being and ask for the details later.
"Alright, you guys back off!"
"My fellow demon brothers, come and try this Pengqiu corn. I know you have been craving it for a long time." "As for the fruit wine and flower wine, we will serve it to you after we prepare it."
The demon kings all expressed their gratitude and tasted the rare delicacy.
The three monsters obeyed the order and retreated, hastening to prepare fruit wine and flower brew, without having time to pay attention to the cave masters at the table.
Little did he know that when Lin Shan saw the two corn spirits, he panicked and quietly lowered his head.
In the center of the venue, wave after wave of spirits took turns to perform singing and dancing.
It can be seen that the Reed Demon King has lived for tens of thousands of years and is quite good at entertaining people. There are special tree demons playing musical instruments and singing in the back seats of the guests on both sides, and the artistic element is not low.
A group of little flower fairies are dancing to the music like elegant butterflies, lightly and powerfully, with just the right amount of tension and relaxation.
Every turn and every leap can be seen to be carefully choreographed by professional dancers, which makes everyone's eyes light up.
However, as the accompaniment turned from a low pitch to a high pitch and the passionate chorus climax arrived, the movements became faster and more difficult, and an out-of-sync figure appeared among the flowers.
There was a peony fairy who danced crookedly. Not only did her hands and feet not coordinate, but she also often turned sideways inadvertently.
When the plant spirit dancer backstage saw this, he quickly gestured to the monster to correct his movements and keep up with the rhythm.
As a result, the little flower fairy became more and more anxious as she made the changes, and the more anxious she became, the more mistakes she made, and she accidentally knocked down another flower fairy next to her!
The whole dance team was like dominoes. Before they could finish a complete dance, they were knocked down by their teammates one after another, and fell to the ground all over!
Petals and leaves flew everywhere, and screams of pain were heard everywhere.
The noise was so loud that all the monsters at the table noticed it!
They had never seen such a misunderstanding happen at a gathering of monsters.
The Jianjia Demon King was socializing with other demon kings. When he turned around and saw this, he became furious!
"What's wrong with you? How can you fall down while dancing?"
The flower demons below were staggering here and there, only the one who started it all at the beginning was still standing, its companions were lying on the ground all around, but it was just standing in the middle, at a loss as to what to do.
The scene was extremely awkward for a moment.
Many plant spirits were whispering in the backstage. They suddenly realized that the troublemaker seemed a little unfamiliar. Although he looked like a member of the same species, they had never seen him in all these years!
"Who is this peony spirit under? How was she trained?!"
Following the questioning by the King of Reeds Demon, a Jindan-stage demon came out, prostrated himself on the ground with his head banging, and the branches and flowers fluttered in disorder, expressing the unique language of flowers and trees.
Probably means:
"This dance team was trained by my subordinates, but I have never seen this troublemaker Peony Fairy before, and I don't know how she got in."
Then he gestured there again, turned around and questioned the peony spirit about her origins.
As a result, the troublesome Peony Fairy just stood there stupidly, as if she couldn't understand the meaning of the flower language.
There were many demons with sharp eyes on the field, and they immediately noticed that there was something abnormal about the Peony Spirit.
Dozens of gazes shot over from all directions, all locking onto this monster!
The Peony Fairy was startled and tried to resist and cover up, but how could she withstand the means of so many cave masters to see through her true form?
"Peng~"
Amid the smoke and dust, a figure staggered out.
A young man in blue clothes, holding a talisman in his hand and with a look of astonishment on his face, appeared in the center and replaced the original position of the Peony Spirit.
"Huh? Human!"
"How come there's another person sneaking in?"
"Who is this person?"
The demon kings were all moved. The trick just now was so convincing that even they were fooled!
What method did this kid use to disguise himself as plant and wood spirits so vividly that he could even mistake the fake for the real thing?
If there was no mistake itself, it would be difficult to attract everyone's attention!
When Lin Shan saw that the young man was exposed, he felt a pang in his heart and thought that something was wrong. The chicken brother next to him was still shouting with his head tilted.
"Where did you get this kid who sneaked in? He is not very skilled. Now he has shown his weakness. Will he be chopped into pieces by the demon kings?"
The cave masters all looked at each other in astonishment, secretly wondering what was going on today. Why did problems keep happening during a gathering of monsters?
The Jianjia Demon King could feel the questioning gazes of the other demons, and his face felt hot, as if all his prestige had been swept to the ground.
But he is the old demon king after all, and he is still cunning. Even though he is furious in his heart, he remains calm and steady on the surface, but anyone can hear the coldness in his tone!
"Who are you and what is your intention in sneaking into our demon race's conference? Tell the truth!"
The young man in blue forced a smile on his face, put away the talisman in his hand without leaving a trace, and kowtowed deeply immediately.
"Junior Lin Fan, a true disciple of Zixiao Sect, has been ordered by the Sect Master to discuss an important matter with Senior Demon King."
There was an uproar at the table.
"The Zixiao Sect again?"
The Jianjia Demon King clenched his hands tightly and trembled slightly, which showed how angry he was inside.
I only hold a gathering of demons once every few hundred years, and you humans from the Zixiao Sect take turns coming here to cause trouble. Do you really think I’m easy to bully?
"Does your Zixiao Sect have the invitation I sent?"
"If not, today"
"Just don't leave!"
Lin Fan was so frightened that his calves were shaking and he was groaning in pain.
Originally, he also came down the mountain and came to Luosong Mountains, but he couldn't find the way to meet the Demon King. Like Yumuzi, he was wandering around like a headless fly.
However, the demon assembly was very grand, and many demon cave masters were heading towards the territory of the Jianjia Demon King, so he was able to catch some clues and follow them.
After Lin Fan arrived here, he did not rush to knock on the door, but hid and observed first.
When he found out that his rival Yumuzi was defeated, he used the "Transformation Talisman" to disguise himself as a little flower demon and sneaked in, hoping to find a chance to get close to the demon king and sneak into Chencang.
Even if the process is exposed and he reveals his identity as a Zixiao Sect member, his life should not be in danger as the sect will back him up.
But who knew that Yumuzi was so reckless. He rushed in in a hurry and was blasted out, leaving a bad impression on the Jianjia Demon King.
Being discovered for the second time, he angered the Demon King and was regarded as a slap in the face twice!
If I can't figure out something today, I'm afraid I'll be in big trouble!
At this point, Lin Fan knew that the reputation of the Zixiao Sect was no longer useful, so he had to think of a way to save his life. In desperation, he turned his gaze to the right.
Lin Shan was sitting between Brother Ji and the three second-generation demons. When he saw Lin Fan looking over here, his heart trembled and he had a bad premonition.
