Chapter 557 Ghosts and Monsters
Upon hearing this, the demon slowly nodded and continued, "So... how do you find the trace of the Supreme God [Candle Dragon] in this region filled with his aura?"
The half-demon girl was stunned, speechless, and then fell silent.
The demon also fell into deep thought: "You came at the summons, yet you don't know the whereabouts of the [Candle Dragon] High God? Has it always been like this?"
“That’s not it… His Majesty lives alone most of the year, and each time he summons us to an audience, it is for important matters to discuss…” The half-demon girl said, and as if she had thought of something, the light in her eyes became even brighter: “I understand, this must be a test given to me by His Majesty! I will definitely reach His Majesty’s side before the other tribes!”
The demon was silent for a moment, as if organizing his thoughts or sorting out his ideas: "...Alright, in that case, how can I help you?"
The half-demon girl seemed to have come up with a good idea and said with great interest, "Since there is the Lord's aura here, the Lord must have performed miracles here before, and there must have been witnesses to all of this... Why don't we go to where the crowd is and find out what's going on?"
The demon fell silent again: "...I thought you would have a more ingenious method."
The half-demon girl remained unfazed: "Then I must disappoint you."
Seeing this, the demon frowned slightly and continued to press: "...When I first awoke, I heard from other members of my race that you had served by the side of the High God [Candle Dragon] and been taught by Him. I originally thought that with this connection, the methods you displayed would be even more exquisite."
The half-demon girl stopped circling the statues of the Seven Gods, straightened her sleeves, and walked towards a populated area in the distance.
He casually said, "...I'm just a little closer to Your Excellency, not that we have a close relationship."
The demons didn't comment on this, but simply nodded slightly and followed in the other's footsteps.
However, after a brief stroll, the half-demon girl received less than satisfactory feedback.
When asked about the miracle, the humans of this world initially appeared excited and proud, but then became sorrowful and grief-stricken.
He groaned and cried out for the Emperor, completely absorbed in his emotions and unable to extricate himself.
The half-demon girl was initially patient, but as time went on and she came into contact with more people...
His already limited patience was gradually worn away, and the smile he had put on gradually disappeared.
What emperor! That's clearly our Venerable One!
But she also knew that she was not there to cause trouble, so she simply kept a cold face, pulled the completely out-of-focus and bewildered demon away from the place.
They found another empty, deserted wilderness and continued their discussion on how to find the god they believed in.
Looking at the half-demon whose face was now completely devoid of smiles and as cold as ice, the demon, who was completely unaware of the inside story, tentatively asked, "...I seem to have heard you mention this Rock King Emperor before."
The half-demon girl coldly replied, "He's not important."
Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, the demon also said, "Alright, he's not important... So what other methods do you have to find the whereabouts of the God [Candle Dragon]?"
The half-demon girl glanced at her again: "You seem to care more about the whereabouts of the Venerable One than I do."
“Of course.” The demon smiled and said meaningfully, “[Zhulong] is the creator god, not a god limited to any one race.”
The half-demon frowned and retorted in a low voice, "That's just how the original [Candle Dragon] was."
The demon's smile remained unchanged: "As long as it is [Candle Dragon], then everything is the same."
The half-demon looked at the demon who had just been released from prison, and his eyes finally changed. He said with great certainty, "In the past, you were by no means just a mere demon soldier."
“Wrong.” The demon shook his head with a smile. His bound black hair shimmered with iridescent light in the sunlight as it swayed slightly, yet with a restrained luster. “In the past, my strength was indeed only enough to be a lowly soldier. However, I have a great interest in and some knowledge of ancient matters, so I know more.”
They looked at each other, both harboring their own ulterior motives. Judging others by their own standards, neither of them believed that the other was as simple as they appeared on the surface.
The half-demon girl slightly tugged at the corners of her mouth, barely revealing a smile, before praising, "Your Excellency is truly knowledgeable... I have learned a great deal."
The demon accepted the compliment without batting an eye: "You flatter me. It's just that I've lived longer, so I know more."
The already unfriendly atmosphere became even more tense, with conversations and other exchanges gradually becoming colder and harsher.
Just as this tense atmosphere was about to change, a third party suddenly barged in. In the instant of their appearance, this kind of persistence turned into a sharp confrontation with a common enemy.
Like a sudden gust of wind, even to the demons, the aura emanating from him was extremely murky, and they did not know what kind of demon he was. He transformed into a demon with blue hair who looked like a young man.
He was filled with murderous intent, and pointed his spear directly at her, as if determined to cut the demon before him down with his spear.
Although their strength is now weak, they have lived for thousands of years and have never been so offended by the demon race. They saw the rudeness revealed in the behavior of the demon before them.
This also displeased her greatly, and she raised an eyebrow and rebuked, "You little vixen, you are truly rude."
The blue-haired youth wielding the spear ignored the demon's words and instead focused his gaze on the half-demon girl standing quietly beside the demon.
Sensing the extremely pure aura emanating from the other person, the blue-haired youth was filled with doubt and confusion: "What is your background, and why are you associating with this demon?"
The demons' dissatisfaction gradually increased due to the other party's words and actions.
The tense moment is almost here.
The half-demon girl suddenly spoke to the blue-haired boy in front of her: "Xiao, please take me to find your emperor."
Xiao was taken aback when his name was suddenly called; clearly, everything before him was beyond his expectations.
"You two know each other?" The demon looked thoughtful. "Didn't you just say that the Rock King Emperor wasn't important?"
The half-demon girl ignored her and continued to stare at Xiao, who was somewhat bewildered by the sudden situation: "I came here at the summons of Your Majesty, but I cannot find Your Majesty's whereabouts. I wish to seek the help of your Emperor so that I may be able to meet Your Majesty as soon as possible."
