Although the little apprentice sister is weak, she can fight
Chapter 84 Search
"It's not really a lie. The succubus's stump is indeed more suitable than the leg he's using now."
"But he can go anywhere to find the succubus's remains. I deliberately let him run far away because I'm afraid he will think I'm accurate and introduce other people from the demon world to look for it."
Mu Jiu understood.
While the crisis is unfolding here, the other demons outside have already searched upstairs.
"So ugly, no wonder he was kicked out." The searching demon looked at the disguised Shen Qiao with a little disdain.
Shen Qiao feigned fear and hid behind Li Yue, pretending to be weak and aggrieved, and looked at Li Yue eagerly, "Sister... am I really ugly?"
Li Yue followed her acting very naturally and patted her shoulder to comfort her, "Be good, don't be afraid, we are not ugly."
"Are you her sister? A relative?" Another demon guarding the gate glanced at Li Yue suspiciously. "What kind of genes do demons have? How can two sisters look so different?"
Li Yue smiled politely, but didn't say much because both of them were pretending.
"Hey, what's her relationship with you?" The demon who entered the house to search pointed at Luo Dai and asked.
"She is my cousin, and she also came to the Demon Realm with us." Li Yue said readily.
The demon looked at Luo Dai with interest and raised his chin. "Is that so?"
Luo Dai nodded, "Yes."
"Oh..." He moved closer and sniffed at Luo Dai's side. "But why do I always feel that you smell a bit human?"
Luo Dai tried to get closer to the black thing, but she was obviously holding back and made an excuse for herself, "I... am a mixed-blood, half human, half demon. Is that not okay?"
"Oh! So that's it." Mo Zhong suddenly realized. His excited reaction made the three of them unable to tell whether he really believed it or not.
After all, the emotions of the demons are different from those of several other races, and some even cry instead of laugh.
"Okay, okay, I'll let you go." He chuckled meaningfully, but his eyes were a little presumptuous.
"There's no problem here! Let's go."
In less than half a cup of tea, the entire post station was searched from top to bottom. Finally, the group of people, as if they were rushing to achieve their goals, took away a few people who had no identification documents and left.
"That's really strange. They haven't checked it for eight hundred years. What happened today? Why are you suddenly so serious?"
"It's because the Demon Realm is getting a new Demon Lord, and these Demon Kings are all looking to show off. I heard that the old Demon Lord's power has declined significantly recently, and the three Demon Kings have already started planning to take action."
"New Demon Lord? I haven't seen him. Hey, when did this happen?"
"It's been quite a while, but the new qualified one hasn't taken up the position yet. This old Demon Lord holds the position of honor every day but can't control others. Oh, it's really frustrating."
"Why bother with that? What does it have to do with us whether it's changed or not? We just want something new."
Listening to the discussion among the demons outside, Li Yue frowned, "Change the Demon Lord? Hasn't the current one even served for a full 100 years? Why is the change so sudden?"
The Demon Lord of the Demon Realm is replaced every hundred years as usual, and the current one has been challenged and lost.
Shen Qiao: "Whether to change it or not is secondary, but this is obviously not a good sign."
If the situation gets too tense, these waves of searches will be very tense.
It’s okay that the group of demons that came today are here, but I’m afraid that if they alarm the three demon kings, that would be no joke.
"But these demon kings rarely come to our own deacon district, so there's no need for us to be so nervous."
After saying that, Li Yue slowly closed the door.
"There is no distinction between day and night in the demon world. Let's take turns to rest so that we can respond promptly if anything happens."
"Ah."
I thought we would be able to have peace for a while after dealing with this search, but in less than three hours another group of people arrived.
In less than a day of going back and forth, five or six more groups of people came and searched around, looking more and more like they were looking for something.
The owner of the post station deliberately used some magic stones and talked to the leader and asked a few questions.
"Oh, the demon officers who came to search just left. It's hard for me to do business if you keep going back and forth."
The demon official weighed the magic stones in his hand and put them into his belt. He coughed a few times and spoke reluctantly, "You don't want to? We don't want to! Damn it, I don't know who has nothing better to do than report to His Highness Chui Jiao, saying that a bastard from the human world has infiltrated our demon world. Look, we brothers have searched back and forth countless times to find that person! Do you think we are willing to go through so much trouble? If I find him, I will skin him and make clothes out of him!"
Someone sneaked into the human world?
Shen Qiao and Li Yue looked at each other at the same time.
It sounds like... it doesn't seem to be directed at them?
Luo Dai, who had been standing at the back, didn't know why, but after hearing this, she unconsciously dodged back with a nervous look on her face.
After this wave, perhaps because the shop owner gave these evil officials some gifts, the searchers finally stopped coming, and the group felt a little more at ease for the time being.
When it was Shen Qiao's turn to rest, Li Yue was called out by Zhu Yu to talk about something. For the time being, Luo Dai was the only one still awake in the room.
She glanced at Shen Qiao who was meditating with his eyes closed, and seemed a little restless. After some hesitation, she finally stood up on tiptoe, deliberately went to the corner farthest from Shen Qiao, and took something out of her storage bag.
She looked at the thing in her hand and hesitated for a moment, then finally put it away, turned around and walked out the door with determination.
"Isn't it too late to deal with it now?"
Shen Qiao suddenly spoke, and Luo Dai was startled. She turned around and looked at Shen Qiao warily, her eyes full of vigilance and guilt. "You... are still awake?"
Shen Qiao opened his eyes and looked at her, "This isn't the first time I've seen you holding that thing."
Luo Dai pursed her lips and said nothing.
"Give it to me." Shen Qiao looked at her steadily, his tone tolerant of refusal.
However, Luo Dai did not do so, but took a step back.
"Don't you understand yet?" Seeing that she was still unwilling to speak, Shen Qiao rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
"I don't know what favors the person behind you promised you, but if I remember correctly, people from the demon world can sense this poisonous insect."
"If we're discovered, everyone here will be implicated. Do you think you can escape? That person is clearly using you as a pawn!"
"I..." Luo Dai was ashamed of what she said. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look into Shen Qiao's eyes. She seemed to force herself to take a deep breath. After a while, she raised her head again as if she had made up her mind.
"I don't want to hurt you. So, I'll go take care of this thing."
