Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.

The next day, Lin Ji, having received the urgent order from the commander-in-chief, rushed back without resting and immediately came to see Shen Yao.

"Guardian, I'm back." Lin Ji bowed deeply upon seeing Shen Yao.

Shen Yao was very satisfied with his speed and attitude. While flipping through Lin Ji's personal file, he read aloud: "Lin Ji was originally a blue-robed bishop of a branch of the Saint's Temple. He was ordered by the Saint's Church to infiltrate the Tianyun Empire with the goal of mating with a demon woman and giving birth to a demon offspring to conduct demon research so that the Saint's Church could improve its knowledge and technology against demons. Later, his scheme was exposed. Faced with pressure from the Tianyun Empire, the Saint's Church refused to recognize your identity and even ordered the Holy Knights to abolish your elemental power."

Shen Yao glanced at Lin Ji, who remained kneeling on the ground without making any move, and continued:

"The Human Extinction Bureau discovered you in the wilderness and saved your life. After waking up, you swore allegiance to the Insulators and submitted a research report on the Demons. You recounted your past without any concealment, which earned the approval of the Chief Commander. You were promoted to the position of Captain of the Earth Extinction Martial Bureau, where you remain to this day."

With a "snap," Shen Yao slammed the file shut, stood up from his chair, and said to Lin Ji, "Get up, the floor is cold."

"Thank you, Guardian." Lin Ji then got up from the ground, stood up straight, and looked straight ahead.

Shen Yao walked around him, patted him on the shoulder, and praised, "Hmm, people from the Earthly Realm certainly have style." After saying that, he sat back down in his chair, pointed to the empty seat opposite him, and said, "Sit down."

After Lin Ji was seated, Shen Yao got down to business: "Lin Ji, do you know why I just read your file aloud?"

Lin Ji shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

"We plan to unite with the Demon Kingdom to incite conflict in the world, dragging all nations and the Saint Cult you hate into the fray. Looking across the entire Insulator, you are the only one who has studied demons and demon humans in depth. The main reason we've brought you here today is to ask you what the differences are between demons and us humans?"

After listening, Lin Ji lowered his head and thought seriously for a long time. Shen Yao did not urge him, but picked up his tea and drank it slowly, giving Lin Ji enough time. Only after he had organized his thoughts did he speak: "Sir, according to my previous research, there is no difference between demons, demons and humans."

This answer displeased Shen Yao. How could they be called demons or demon people if there was no difference? He was about to explode, but Lin Ji's reply immediately reached his ears:

"Demons and demons are no different from humans in terms of intelligence and behavior, but they differ greatly in their ability to adapt to elemental power. Demons possess at least two elemental powers at the same time, and some demons possess even more. Based on this alone, demons are stronger than humans in combat, but this also brings drawbacks."

"Oh? What are the drawbacks?" Shen Yao became interested, as this was the first time he had learned about the demon race.

"People only know that demons can use the power of multiple elements, but they don't understand the secrets behind it. Through my research, I have discovered that there are many unknown fine threads in the bodies of demons and humans, which are responsible for controlling and using the power of elements. These fine threads also seem to transmit different sensations. Demons have significantly more fine threads than humans. It seems that these fine threads are the reason why the mental power of demons has changed, giving them a stronger ability to adapt to elements. It is also the reason why they are more sensitive, unstable, and therefore more violent."

"Hmm, what you said is very professional. Besides these, what else?" Shen Yao couldn't understand what Lin Ji was saying at all, so he could only ask in a different way: "What I mean is, if we want to cooperate with the Demon Clan, what should we pay attention to during the dialogue in order to facilitate the cooperation?"

"Speak directly, state your purpose clearly, explain what benefits it will bring them, and tell them what they should do."

"Is it really that simple?" Shen Yao clearly didn't believe it.

"It's that simple. They can't understand overly complicated conversations in a short time. The reason for this should also be related to those fine threads. The process of my marriage to that demon woman was also this simple. I expressed my praise, pointed out the benefits of dating and marriage, and swore that I would treat her well for the rest of my life. That was it."

Shen Yao was speechless for a moment. He had thought the demon race was a very mysterious race, but after Lin Ji said that, he suddenly felt that the demon race was nothing special, and he lost interest.

"I understand. You may return now. If this matter succeeds, you will leave Earthly Absolute and begin your duties at Heavenly Absolute Martial Division."

"Thank you, Guardian!"

Shen Yao's casual remark moved Lin Ji to tears of gratitude, and he kowtowed repeatedly in thanks before leaving the Insulator Headquarters. After speaking with Lin Ji, Shen Yao devised a strategy and immediately completed the formation of a group of secret envoys. Considering the formidable strength of the Demon Kingdom, it was essential to ensure the safety of the envoys. Therefore, Elijah, another pioneer among the Guardians, and Ralf, a bodyguard, were appointed as the captain and vice-captain, respectively. A small team was drawn from the Heavenly Absolute Martial Division to undertake the protection work, and the Heaven, Earth, and Human Absolute Martial Divisions were arranged to escort them along the way.

According to Lin Ji, the demons are relatively simple-minded, so only two people were selected from the Earthly Administration to serve as the main persuaders, and thus a team of ten set off.

They gathered at the Insulators' Headquarters, received their mission, and set off from the Kingdom of Delin, where the Headquarters was located. Their plan was to cross the border between the Kingdom of Delin and the Heavenly Fortune Empire, pass through the Spiritfall Great Forest, enter the Holy Beast Kingdom, travel through the northern part of the Beast Kingdom, and enter the Western Demon Kingdom from the northwest of the Beast Kingdom.

After setting off, they arrived at the time when the border troops of the Tianyun Empire and the Delin Kingdom were patrolling most frequently. After several attempts, they found that they could not cross the border without being detected. So they immediately planned to impersonate the Holy Knights and launch an attack, which provoked friction between the border troops of the two countries. Only then were they able to cross the border and enter the Lingluo Great Forest.

After traveling through the great forest for more than ten days, the group finally entered the territory of the Beast Kingdom. However, their unusual attire quickly attracted the attention of the Beast Kingdom's residents. After their abnormality was reported, the Beast Kingdom's army began to surround and intercept them, preparing to capture them for interrogation. As they fled, they caused frequent disturbances to the Beast Kingdom's army. Fortunately, no one was captured, because those who were injured in the battle were executed and buried on the spot by Elijah and Ralf.

After entering the Western Demon Kingdom, only seven members of the ten-person team remained. They immediately found the border city lord, explained their origins, and were then led by the border city lord to the Demon Kingdom's capital, Damonlit City, where they were received by the Council of Deliberation.

The Council of Deliberations was very curious and interested in this first group of humans to visit in a century. After learning roughly what their purpose was, they immediately issued a Demon Gathering Order, summoning the Demon King and the core nobles to a meeting.

"Speak, what brings you to my Demon Kingdom?" Demon King Verra asked authoritatively after taking his seat in the deliberation court.
