Although the little apprentice sister is weak, she can fight

"Fresh teeth, let's take a walk and have a look!"

"Hey! This is swamp mud freshly dug from the south! It's perfect for patching up any holes in your body!"

"Newly made beauty skin! The most popular beauty skin in the human world!"

After entering the city, the hawking sounds never stopped.

Shen Qiao followed Wang You and walked in the opposite direction through the crowd of hawkers.

Neither of them was in disguise, they just used some tricks. To those monsters, they were no different from ordinary monsters, but to their own people, they still looked their original appearance.

"What a bad taste." This was Wang You's evaluation of her previous disguise, so he asked her to wash off the disguise with scars on her face without saying anything.

Back to the point. I just looked at the wanted poster posted at the city gate. The content was similar to what the two of them already knew: someone had escaped from the main prison under the jurisdiction of their second demon king, but the specific circumstances were very vague. The most informative part was probably the portrait of the wanted person placed alongside the wanted poster.

It was not an ordinary portrait of a person's appearance, but a portrait of the upper body of a human skeleton.

Actually, you can't blame the artist for his fanciful depictions. Demons and humans have different perspectives on their own kind. Their concept of appearance is like a person's concept of clothing: they can change it at any time. Because they are all solid bodies condensed from demonic energy, their primary support is similar to a human skeleton. While appearances can be changed, bones are much more complex to replace. Therefore, they usually identify people by looking directly at the skeleton, which is more accurate.

However... I guess only the demons have the ability to judge people by their bones.

"Hiss..." Shen Qiao was distracted and was almost swept away by the crowd.

Wang You noticed her tut-tut and held her hand like a child, "Follow closely. If you get lost, I won't look for you."

After being pulled back, she quickly took a few steps and followed up with a voice message: "Where are we going now?"

"Go to Luguanglin." Wang You responded as he walked, "The client said that the distress signal came from there."

"Since the person hasn't been caught yet, he should still be there."

Shen Qiao was surprised. "Luguanglin must be at least 700 to 800 miles away from where he's being held? He just escaped from prison two days ago and is still injured. How could he have run so far alone?"

"He can fly," Wang You added, "a flying fish. If it weren't for these wings, he wouldn't have been expelled from the mermaid tribe."

She had a lot of winged fish in her mind, but there seemed to be no such group among the mermaids.

Shen Qiao thought seriously, "But... how can I transform this winged fish? A human head, a fish tail, and bird wings? Wouldn't that be a mess?"

Wang You was amused by her question, "How can it be so exaggerated? What do you think about every day?"

"Have you heard? The Demon King is going to go on a killing spree in a few days." A demon who passed by whispered to his companions.

"It's said that everyone associated with that criminal will be executed, and even their bones will be burned to ashes in public. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, that sounds way too serious."

"I wonder what kind of important person is running away this time, taking so many people with him to their deaths."

"Tsk, who knows."

They haven't even found the person yet, but they're executing everyone associated with him. Are they trying to force him out?

"!"

Just as she was about to lose her focus, a snow-white severed leg suddenly appeared before her. Looking up along the broken leg, she saw a small demon vendor stopping the two of them and saying with a smile, "A freshly made human leg! I guarantee you won't see any signs of height increase after you attach it. How about it? Want two?"

"She doesn't need this." Wang You replied directly for her, using the local dialect of the demon clan.

The peddler was still unwilling to give up and mumbled a lot of things. Wang You seemed to be tired of listening and said something in a very fierce tone that Shen Qiao could not understand at all. The peddler's face suddenly changed and without saying a word he quickly stepped aside to let the two leave.

Not only this small vendor, but all the demons who heard these words gave way obediently, even lowering their voices in discussion, all with a respectful look.

What's this idiom? I've never heard of it.

After walking a distance away, Shen Qiao tugged at his hand and asked, "What did you mean by that just now?"

"That's insulting." Wang You said indifferently.

"That sounds useful. Can you teach me?"

Wang You looked down at her, and Shen Qiao only saw him smile playfully, "When you remember the name of the sword, I will teach you."

Shen Qiao was silent, or rather, he instantly wilted. "Okay, okay, okay, you all know me, but I don't know anything."

Wang You chuckled, "So what? If you don't know, then you don't know. You won't be able to use it now anyway."

These words successfully made Shen Qiao realize something.

Wu Jin said that Wang You had a natural spiritual root. Does that mean...

"What will my future be like?" Shen Qiao asked.

'Is it important?'

Shen Qiao looked at him and nodded seriously, "Yes."

During the conversation, the two had already separated from the crowd. Wang You seemed to be planning to change two horses for transportation. After all, this place was still far away from Luguanglin and walking was too slow.

"I won't go into the details." Wang You sent a message to Shen Qiao while negotiating the price with the merchant as usual. In the end, he used two high-quality spirit stones to buy two Black Rock Horses, a specialty of the Demon Realm. These horses had barbs on their limbs, allowing them to climb steep cliffs and run very fast.

"If things continue like this, you won't be any worse than me."

'Of course, it depends on whether you are willing or not.'

Why would you be willing or unwilling to do this?

Shen Qiao took the reins he handed over and was even more puzzled. "Is this any different from not saying anything?"

Wang You laughed, "You are quite arrogant."

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Shen Qiao to ask any more questions, Wang You had already jumped on the horse and said, "It's good to have this confidence. Let's go and get down to business first. Put aside your little thoughts for now."

Perfunctory.

Shen Qiao secretly complained, but he did as he was told despite his righteousness.

We were on the road for a long time afterwards. There was no distinction between day and night in the demon world, so even if we ran for a whole day, we wouldn't have any obvious feeling.

Back to the Killing Light Forest. This place is where the previous Demon Lord fell. Logically, it should have special significance, right? But the demons themselves are heartless. At first, they pretended to imitate the rules and rituals of the human world, setting up a day for sacrifice and pretending to cry together. But then they realized that each Demon Lord died in a different place, and they were too lazy to move, so they simply didn't hold it.

Look, less than a hundred years have passed since the death of the Supreme Demon Lord and he was completely forgotten. Now that place is just a messy forest, and high-level monsters often appear there. Therefore, there are very few demons hanging around there anymore.

But the people from the demon world don’t dare to go there. How can the person they are looking for protect himself?
