Immortals of the Mortal World Gather at the Inn!

Chapter 28 The Turmoil Before Departure

"I've lost! And thank you for going easy on me!"

Mad Lion sheathed his weapon, bowed deeply to Li Daoxuan, and then stepped down from the stage!

There was a moment of silence, then an explosion:

"Wow! The male lion actually defeated the mad lion who was halfway to the fusion stage."

"Awesome! The lion is invincible!"

"You can praise me all you want, but why are you talking about my place!"

"Ah! Lion, I love you!"

"Lion, lion, what race are you!"

"Lion, could you please take off your mask and let us see you?"

"Yes, take off your mask!"

"Take off your mask!"

Li Daoxuan ignored the demon horde below who had suddenly been led astray.

Li Daoxuan looked at the highest building, believing that Mi Tao was keeping an eye on the situation there.

Mi Tao smiled in the office, and with just a glance, Li Daoxuan appeared in front of him!

Li Daoxuan looked at Mi Tao without surprise and said, "May I leave now?"

Mi Tao smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, but you have to come with me. I need to talk to you about something."

After spending the past few days dealing with Mi Tao, Li Daoxuan discovered that Mi Tao, this demon, was still teachable.

Mi Tao led Li Daoxuan to the very bottom of the dueling arena, while the Demon Emperor Lu Xing frowned in the distance, then said something to a demon beside him, who then retreated.

Meanwhile, in a secret chamber at the very bottom of the dueling arena, Mi Tao sat down and said to Li Daoxuan, "Sit down, it's safe here."

Although Li Daoxuan didn't understand what Mi Tao meant by "safety," he still sat down.

Mi Tao suddenly said with a serious expression, "Lion, you are a human, aren't you?"

Li Daoxuan was startled, but said in a calm tone, "Manager Mi, I don't know what you're talking about!"

Mi Tao said calmly, "Do you know why I approached you as soon as you arrived?"

Li Daoxuan sensed something, but still asked, "Why!"

Mi Tao continued, "Because the Demon Emperor Lu Xing sent someone to say you're human and asked me to test your strength. To be honest, your strength is indeed quite impressive!"

Upon hearing that it was the Demon Emperor Lu Xing, Li Daoxuan asked, "Why would the Demon Emperor target a mere Nascent Soul cultivator like myself?"

Mi Tao smiled and said, "See, you really are human!"

Li Daoxuan didn't bother to hide it anymore and continued to press, "I am a human, so why would the Demon Emperor target a mere Nascent Soul cultivator like me!"

Mi Tao looked at Li Daoxuan's burning gaze, shook his head, and said, "How could we mortals possibly guess the thoughts of the Demon Emperor?"

Upon hearing this answer, Li Daoxuan frowned slightly, but quickly recovered and asked Mi Tao, "Can I leave now?"

Mi Tao looked at Li Daoxuan and suddenly asked, "So, what's your name?"

After thinking for a moment, Li Daoxuan decided to grant Jubaoge a great deal of prestige, and thus said, "The Pavilion Master of Jubaoge, Li Xuan!"

Mi Tao thought for a long time and realized he didn't recall such a force. So he said, "I haven't heard of it, but I believe that under your leadership, Jubaoge's reputation will endure for eternity!"

Li Daoxuan looked at Mi Tao, trying to see what kind of scheme he was up to, but he couldn't figure it out.

Mi Tao smiled, understanding Li Daoxuan's meaning, and said, "I can see you out, but you'll owe me a favor, how about it!"

This shows that Mi Tao, this demon, has a different eye for things!

Li Daoxuan, somewhat confused by Mi Tao's words, asked, "You said the Demon Emperor wants to deal with me, but as someone in that position, he shouldn't personally intervene against a nobody like me, right?"

Mi Tao replied, "That won't happen, but he will send someone to take you away. Then they will extract your human bloodline and replace it with demon blood. That way, you will completely belong to the demon race. Moreover, the Demon Emperor's bloodline is extremely pure, and its suppression of us is not just a little bit!"

Li Daoxuan now thoroughly regretted his decision to sit down, but he didn't want to owe Mi Tao, that old fox, a favor, so he declined, saying, "Is that so? However, I've decided I can leave on my own!"

Mi Tao shook his head and said, "No, you can't get out!"

Li Daoxuan looked at Mi Tao and said, "What are we betting on!"

Mi Tao smiled and said, "If you can't get out, I'll help you, but you'll owe me two favors. Shall we bet now?"

Li Daoxuan thought about it and realized that the price was too high. He originally didn't want to owe Mi Tao a favor, but if he really couldn't get out and had to ask Mi Tao to save him, then he would owe Mi Tao two favors.

Li Daoxuan began to think.

Mi Tao wasn't in a hurry. He took out a tea set from his storage ring, brewed a cup of tea for himself and Li Daoxuan, pushed it to Li Daoxuan, and then began to drink the tea.

After a moment, Li Daoxuan seemed to have made up his mind and said, "There's no need for Steward Mi's help. I still think I can go back on my own!"

Mi Tao crossed his right leg over his left and said with a smile, "Okay, I hope Li Xuan won't regret it!"

Just as Li Daoxuan was about to say something, Mi Tao sent him back to the entrance of the dueling arena. Then a voice reached Li Daoxuan's ears: "Don't worry, I won't tell the Demon Emperor. Also, the Demon Emperor's people will be at the dueling arena soon."

Li Daoxuan was stunned and hurriedly ran away!

Meanwhile, Demon Emperor Lu Xing watched as Mi Tao and Li Daoxuan suddenly disappeared and reappeared, and it seemed that the two had reached some kind of deal.

Lu Xing smiled noncommittally, seemingly lost in thought.

Just a short while after Li Daoxuan left, a demon covered in dark red scales descended from the sky.

"Mi Tao, come see me!"

After landing, the demon called out Mi Tao's name.

Mi Tao's voice came from the dueling arena: "Hey, Lin Huan, we're supposed to be evenly matched, right? Your commanding tone is really irritating!"

Lin Huan said bluntly, "Mi Tao, this time I am acting on the orders of the Demon Emperor."

"Hmph, you only have the Demon Emperor backing you up. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to stay here peacefully today!"

Mi Tao appeared in front of Lin Huan and said mockingly!

Ignoring Mi Tao's sarcasm, Lin Huan asked, "Where is that human?"

Mi Tao said calmly, "I'm leaving!"

Upon hearing Mi Tao's words, Lin Huan became enraged and questioned, "Mi Tao, you clearly knew he was the person His Majesty the Demon Emperor wanted, yet you still let him go!"

Mi Tao didn't care that Lin Huan was using the Demon Emperor to intimidate him, and said, "He fled that way. If you want to chase him, then go ahead. If not, then get lost, or don't blame me for disrespecting the Demon Emperor!"

As a powerful being in the late Mahayana stage, it was naturally easy for Lin Huan to find the location of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Even if that Nascent Soul stage cultivator had a magic weapon, it was only a matter of time. There was also a terrifying Demon Emperor watching. So Mi Tao simply told Lin Huan, which could be considered as giving the Demon Emperor behind the scenes an explanation!

Lin Huan glanced at Mi Tao with apprehension, then chased after him in the direction he pointed!

Mi Tao looked at Li Daoxuan's position and silently thought to himself:

"Looks like I'll have to owe them these two favors!"
