I am a living immortal.

Lin Yiyang had a sad face. Since you asked him this, do you think he would dare to refuse?

The old goat had been with Su Mu for so many years, and he actually had a sense of good and evil. But how should I put it? Because of his race, this sense of good and evil was very weak, and it was limited to the fact that he would not kill someone for no reason.

So he decided to use courtesy first and then force, and asked.

If you agree, everyone's happy. If you don't agree, you're rejecting my kindness, so I'm going to teach you a lesson. Your territory was still yours, but now it's mine. This outrageous and overbearing logic surprisingly suits the old goat.

Lin Yiyang knew this, because he used the same logic, perhaps even more extreme. Otherwise, how could he possibly gain a foothold in a place like the Zhongling Mountains? He would have been eaten by others and become the mountain's sustenance.

Things are much better now. I used to just rush in without caring whether I could win or not. Don't judge a person by his appearance.

"How could I...how could I not agree? Welcome...welcome..."

Lin Yiyang showed a smile that was uglier than crying and said insincerely.

The old goat nodded with great satisfaction and hugged Lin Yiyang, looking like a good brother.

The Crowned Monkey King was so moved that he thanked his friend for his generous donation and had no way to repay him (nothing to repay).

At this point, only Lin Yiyang was injured.

He shouldn't have come to watch the fun. But if he had come to watch the fun, he wouldn't have met the old goat, and if he hadn't met the old goat, he wouldn't have approached to talk to him, and if he hadn't approached to talk to him, he wouldn't have given up his territory. What a miserable life!

Unfortunately, he couldn't beat him. Now he felt the frustration of Man Lie.

At once, he gained two people who felt the same way.

But no matter what, bringing the people back has become a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed.

After Lin Yiyang took his men away.

The hall was suddenly bustling with activity, filled with endless discussions. Yue Shanque decided to stay and take notes; after all, he had a mission, and he had to report whether he had completed it or not.

The mission to recruit Su Qingtu naturally failed.

But he brought back an even more formidable figure. Yue Shanque was known for his outgoing nature, able to strike up a conversation with anyone. Seeing the plague god leave, someone immediately approached him.

The jumping titmouse spoke ambiguously.

These monsters weren't simply driven by curiosity. Where there are people, there's conflict, and the Monster Alliance is no different; they're all cunning and scheming. Outsiders fight the natives, the natives fight the natives, and outsiders fight outsiders.

If it weren't for the Old Goat's domineering entrance, these people might have been in for a real rude awakening. Now, a powerful being threatened to once again upset the balance within the demon alliance. This disruption would mean a redistribution of interests, which made many people eager to take action.

After all, the territory is limited. If you have more, I have less. Those who have more want more, and those who have less want more too. Some places are good, some are bad. There's a reason why few people covet Man Lie, despite his folly. The Stone Forest is a place of little renown, a waste of time and a waste of money. Furthermore, Man Lie's strength is considered formidable among the great monsters, and the benefits and risks are disproportionate, so no one frowns on him.

In a word, desire is hard to satisfy.

Leaping Titmouse is not stupid, he will not tell the truth if he is just fooling around.

The demons weren't upset that they hadn't received any information from Yue Shanque. They had already begun making secret preparations, as this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Speaking of which, the leader of the Demon Alliance was quite powerful. In just a few years, he had convinced these demons and monsters to accept the Demon Alliance from the bottom of their hearts. Just like now, he had clearly wanted to redistribute the territory for a long time, but he was forcing himself to hold back.

Yue Shanque watched the group jumping up and down, his mind as clear as a mirror. He knew what the old goat was doing here. He was not here to join the demon alliance, he was here to challenge others or to discuss the truth.

At that time, people will directly look for the leader of the Demon Alliance instead of these minions.

He erased some key points from the cause and effect, and after explaining it, he left.

The Zhongling Mountains are blessed with outstanding people and beautiful scenery.

Lin Yiyang's territory wasn't in the core area, but rather on the edge. This area was dotted with several larger human villages. Lin Yiyang quite enjoyed interacting with humans, and he also found that humans were more creative than monsters, such as with condiments.

He would always go to these villages to exchange some things.

This area was his territory, so the people in these villages were doing relatively well. In fact, most villages were doing just fine. Because of the unique circumstances of the Zhongling Mountains, humans weren't popular there. First, humans were often impure, making them inferior to the natural treasures of nature.

Human flesh and blood were high quality, but compared to the herds of beasts that roamed the mountains, their numbers were pitifully small. Furthermore, the flesh and blood of the beasts closer to the center were essentially equal in quality to humans. Furthermore, humans were confined to the periphery, and as their numbers grew, so did their popularity.

However, it is common to change the taste and have a snack. These powerful monsters can eat a hundred or eighty people at a time.

On the contrary, the humans in Lin Yiyang's area do not have such worries.

Because this territory belonged to Lin Yiyang, the humans in it were also his property. Normally, no one would be so foolish as to seek death here.

It's quite quiet.

Lin Yiyang's residence was perched midway up a green mountain, nestled against the hillside, a series of small buildings. It was a unique location in the entire Zhongling Mountains, with a distinctly human aesthetic. It seemed the previous owner had a significant influence on him.

Lin Yiyang took the old goat on a tour.

Soon, the old goat was captivated by a painting. It depicted a man and a woman. The man, resembling Lin Yiyang, played the zither expressionlessly. Beside him sat a woman, a delicate smile on her beautiful face, a smile that reached deep into her eyes. Even in the painting, a faint reflection of her eyes could be seen.

What a great scene of treating each other as equals.

"Don't tell me that the person in this painting is you?" The old goat seemed to have thought of something, and there was a hint of disbelief in his calm eyes.

"What's the big deal? Actually, it's been hundreds of years. Life is such a rigged game."

"you......"

"Is it possible?" Lin Yiyang understood what the old goat wanted to ask and asked directly.

In reality, it was impossible. After all, a single person and a demon, the lifespan alone could kill countless people. And this was especially true for someone as emotionally indifferent as Lin Yiyang. After the old goat understood, the painting's original harmonious atmosphere vanished. There seemed to be an invisible, intangible barrier between the two.
