Chapter 85 Second Uncle, they're all on our side!
"That's a projection my foot!"

"That's true!"

"The Moon Demon God Agares has arrived!"

Feng Jing said this with utter speechlessness.

She had no idea how to handle this situation.

Should I confess now?

Just as Feng Jing had guessed, his companions panicked when they heard that the Moon Demon God Agares had arrived.

"The Moon Demon God Agares???"

"That's the second strongest demon, second only to the Demon Emperor. Aren't we doomed?"

"If we leave now, will we make it in time?"

The members of the Dawn of Light Demon Hunter Team now feel like they're going to have a nervous breakdown just hearing the names of the Three Pillars of the Sun, Moon and Stars.

"It seems too late, I can't move."

"That's it, I can't move either."

Under the moonlight, everyone seemed to be frozen in place.

Feng Jing was able to move, but Bai Haochen was frozen in place, so she pretended to be unable to move as well.

The demonic pillar approached at an astonishing speed, and as it drew near, the tens of thousands of demons fell like a tidal wave, all dying instantly.

Agares killed them so fast that he was in front of them in the blink of an eye.

Feng Jing quickly sent a telepathic message to Agares, "Second Uncle, Second Uncle, have mercy! There are many of our own people here! Don't kill our own people!"

She was genuinely afraid that Agares wouldn't stop and would wipe out her entire group.

Upon hearing Feng Jing's telepathic message, Agares slowed down considerably, his divine sense sweeping around Feng Jing as if trying to identify who among Feng Jing's so-called allies were.

"Second Uncle, what are you doing? The entire Chamber of Commerce is made up of our own people."

Feng Jing was puzzled. The members of their Dawn of Light Demon Hunter Group and the Moonlit Merchant Guild all wore the same moon-white cloaks. Wasn't it easy to tell them apart?
"No, little princess."

Agares's telepathic message reached Feng Jing's ears.

"Only the three princesses are truly my own people."

Upon hearing this, Feng Jing was immediately startled.

Therefore, Agares' initial plan was to kill everyone present except for Feng Jing, Yue Ye, and Leng Xiao.

"Here are my eldest nephew, his girlfriend, my apprentice, his girlfriend, and..."

Feng Jing strongly disagreed with Agares and started counting how many of their own people were still there.

Agares, who had already reached them, finally stopped.

At this point, there were exactly ten survivors within a radius of several miles.

It was the seven members of the Dawn of Light, plus Agares, Moonlit Night, and Leng Xiao.

"They dared to attack the princess, they deserve to die."

"And they deserve to die for failing to protect the princess and putting her in danger."

Agares arrived with the moonlight and judged those he had killed.

Then she gently comforted Feng Jing.

"My little princess, I'm so sorry to have frightened you."

"I wasn't startled."

Feng Jing actually wanted to add that what startled her was Agares.

"You are……"

Agares turned his gaze to Bai Haochen and the others, but before he could even begin, he was interrupted by their wary movements.

The other six members of the Dawn of Light drew their weapons toward Agares and shielded Feng Jing in the center.

"Ahem, would you believe me if I said we're just ordinary, wandering merchants?"

Feng Jing coughed twice, pretending to be nonchalant, trying to get away with it.

Before Agares could answer, Moonlight cleverly covered for Feng Jing. "Father, they are wandering merchants who recently joined my guild. They were quite helpful when we were in danger."

Since both of them had said that, Agares was unlikely to contradict them.

"So that's it."

He accepted this seemingly flawed explanation.

The people of Dawn of Light breathed a sigh of relief, and were also surprised that the mighty Moon Demon God Agares was so easy to deal with.

"The caravan is destroyed. Come with me back to Heart City to see His Majesty."

The "you" that Agares was referring to actually included the seven members of the Dawn of Light. The seven of them widened their eyes in surprise.

“Father, they are wandering merchants, but they are wandering merchants from the human race. They dare not, nor are they qualified, to go to Heart City to see His Majesty. Father, please don’t make things difficult for us.”

Before Feng Jing could speak, Yue Ye had already preemptively rejected Agares, and surprisingly, her reasoning was quite sound.

The Moonlit Merchant Guild, under the name of Moonlit Night, exists between the human and demon races, originally consisting of both human and demon members.

With Yueye's help, they finally managed to get rid of Agares. However, Yueye and Leng Xiao also left with Agares.

"We just escaped this time?"

It was quite a while after Agares and the other two left that the members of Dawn of Light felt a sense of relief, as if they had escaped a disaster.

"Although it seems that way, the Moon Demon God is too easy to talk to."

"I feel it's because of Yueye. The Moon Demon God dotes on his daughter Yueye, so he spared us out of consideration for her."

"Wait a minute, if Yueye is the daughter of the Moon Demon God, then she's a princess of the Moon Demon Clan?"

"You're only just realizing it now! Not only is Yueye a princess, but that woman in red is the daughter of the Demon God Emperor."

Inside the carriage, the group was still caught up in their excitement and discussing what had just happened.

"You've been looking at me. Is there anything you want to ask? You can ask directly."

Noticing that Bai Haochen's gaze was fixed on him, Feng Jing lifted his hat.

"Will my aunt tell me if I ask her?"

"Yes, I can speak."

Feng Jing nodded, but she couldn't guarantee whether what she said was true or false, or whether it was nonsense.

"My aunt mentioned before that you have some connection with the owner of the Moonlit Merchant Guild. Does she mean Princess Moonlit?"

Feng Jing nodded.

"Did you know Princess Moonlight's identity before?"

Feng Jing nodded again, unusually obedient.

"Aren't you going to ask any more questions?"

After waiting a while and not hearing any further from Bai Haochen, Feng Jing asked instead.

"I won't ask anymore, I already know the answer I want."

Bai Haochen didn't ask any more questions.

Looking at the other people, there was surprisingly no sign that they wanted to ask any questions.

This made Feng Jing feel quite uncomfortable.

Instead, she asked, "Aren't you going to ask me why I'm associating with the Moon Demon princess?"

"And don't you blame me for choosing this route, which has led you to encounter danger one after another?"

Upon hearing her question, everyone looked at her with a mixture of shock and confusion.

"Why ask?"

They genuinely didn't understand Feng Jing's question, and didn't think there was anything worth asking.

As for the danger, "who can guarantee that choosing the other path wouldn't be dangerous?"

"We will face danger when we form the Demon Hunter Group and enter the demon realm."

"Stop talking, quickly check how many merit points you've gained."
