~7 min read 1,316 words

To be honest, Ye Changqing was even starting to crave the taste of these Demon race ingredients.

It was just like eating too much pork; wouldn't you want to eat beef for a couple of days to change the flavor?

Looking at the shocked Qi Xiong, He Yun absentmindedly picked his nose, his head held so high it was almost in the clouds, and said unhurriedly.

"It's nothing much, just happened to catch about twenty of them, a small matter."

"T-twenty... or so..."

Qi Xiong couldn't hold it together anymore. Did he really catch twenty of them?

Just as Qi Xiong was stunned, He Yun said unhurriedly.

"Anything else? If not, I'm hanging up; I'm busy."

"Wait."

"Hmm???"

"Fourth Junior Brother, look at how you're talking. How long has it been since we brothers chatted? Isn't it just that Eldest Senior Brother misses you?"

Qi Xiong had long since put on a smile, his tone extremely gentle.

But He Yun clearly wasn't buying it. Hearing this, the corner of his mouth curled up.

"Miss me? But how do I remember that it was you, Eldest Senior Brother, who made me come to guard the Demon Cave?"

"I had already agreed with Fifth Junior Brother back then to let him take my place, but Eldest Senior Brother was very impartial."

"This... Junior Brother, you must also understand Senior Brother's difficulties. After all, Senior Brother is the Holy Master, and these rules..."

"Fine, rules are rules. Nothing else, hanging up now."

"Wait a moment."

"Anything else?"

"That... Junior Brother, when are you planning to send the Demon race ingredients back?"

"Let's do it together when I return."

"This..."

Qi Xiong panicked. Wait for He Yun to return? He Yun had only been there for a few days; there were still over twenty days left.

Having long craved a taste of these Demon race ingredients, how could he wait twenty more days? He immediately laughed dryly.

"That... Junior Brother, how about I send Fifth Junior Brother to replace you? You bring the Demon race ingredients back first."

"That won't do. Senior Brother said it himself: rules are rules. The time hasn't come yet, how can I return without authorization?"

Hmm???

"Alright, hanging up."

Saying this, He Yun ignored the dazed Qi Xiong and directly cut the array connection.

This guy was lecturing him about rules earlier, and now he's asking him to return? You chose this, idol; just wait for it.

Watching He Yun cut the connection, Qi Xiong's face looked terrible.

He wanted to get angry, but the thought of the Demon race ingredients made it impossible.

Did He Yun really get Demon race ingredients? That's a bit absurd; there hadn't been any movement from that Demon Cave before.

Actually, it wasn't just He Yun; the other four Demon Caves also had gains, and they weren't small.

But the other four Demon Caves weren't the responsibility of the Dao One Holy Land; they were handled by the other two great holy lands and Great Saints from other sects.

So Qi Xiong didn't know the situation at the other four caves for the time being.

However, He Yun alone getting over twenty Demon race ingredients completely hooked Qi Xiong's cravings.

"I said it, at critical moments, Fourth Junior Brother is still the reliable one."

Hmm???

Hearing this, Ye Changqing, standing to the side, couldn't even be bothered to speak.

Who was it that was cursing He Yun just a moment ago? Now he's reliable again?

The appearance of the Demon race ingredients put Qi Xiong in a great mood. However, as the saying goes, some are happy while others are sad. Qi Xiong was comfortable, but Bei Zun was having a hard time.

In the Demon World, still in Yi Qi's great hall, Bei Zun and his gathered Demon Gods were all present, and Yi Qi had also been invited over.

The constant disappearance of guards at the five Demon Caves had completely angered Bei Zun, and Yi Qi was gloating about it.

"What, no need to guard the surroundings of the Demon Caves anymore?"

Yesterday, Bei Zun had already withdrawn the guards around the five Demon Caves.

There was no choice; batch after batch kept disappearing. What else could he do but withdraw them?

But facing Yi Qi's mockery, Bei Zun still snorted coldly.

"Hmph, mere petty tricks that can't be brought to the table; it doesn't matter."

"My reconnaissance troops have already arrived. Let those humans jump around for a few more days."

Bei Zun said with continued confidence. Hearing this, Yi Qi curled his lips and said nothing more.

Anyway, he didn't have the power to decide this; everything was up to Bei Zun, and he was just cooperating.

Although he appeared indifferent on the surface, in reality, Bei Zun was already burning with rage inside.

He hadn't even had a chance to make a move, yet he had been undermined by the humans first.

Although he didn't know what methods the humans used, his several batches of guards were indeed gone.

At first, he thought they had abandoned their posts, but now it was confirmed that they must have gone to the Haotu World.

Before even making contact, he had already suffered a small loss.

How could Bei Zun, who had always looked down on humans and held himself in high regard, accept this?

His murderous intent toward the humans deepened, but now that his reconnaissance troops had arrived, how much longer could the humans jump around?

Once he figured out the situation in the Haotu World, he would press his army forward, take the entire Haotu World in one fell swoop, and let those so-called humans know that in the face of true strength, all conspiracies and tricks are empty.

Thinking of this, Bei Zun's mood improved quite a bit, and he even invited Yi Qi to visit his reconnaissance troops together.

"Yi Qi, accompany me tomorrow to inspect my reconnaissance troops."

"You..."

They are your subordinates, why do you want me to go? But before Yi Qi could speak, Bei Zun said directly.

"The Demon Emperor told you to cooperate with me fully; you wouldn't refuse, would you?"

"Fine."

Hearing this, Yi Qi gritted his teeth and nodded. This guy was clearly humiliating him, but Yi Qi had no way to stop it.

He thought that was the end of it, but the next second, Bei Zun's words almost made Yi Qi explode on the spot.

"Oh, right, remember to call your subordinates; we'll all go together."

"Don't go too far."

"What, are you going to defy the Demon Emperor's orders?"

He couldn't go three sentences without mentioning the Demon Emperor, and Yi Qi had no way to counter it. Finally, he could only snort coldly and leave with a gloomy face.

Watching Yi Qi leave, Bei Zun's mood improved quite a bit.

Hmph, you wanted to see me make a fool of myself? I want to see who ends up being the joke.

Bei Zun had heard Yi Qi's mockery of him clearly, so naturally, he wouldn't let him have an easy time.

The next day, Yi Qi indeed brought his subordinates and went with Bei Zun to inspect the reconnaissance troops.

This was a troop Bei Zun had specially cultivated, mainly responsible for pre-war reconnaissance.

Following behind Yi Qi, Bo Boke was also there. Although he was a Demon God under Yi Qi, his status was low. After all, after the reconnaissance troop he planned suffered a total collapse, he had fallen to the bottom again.

But hearing that Bei Zun had a reconnaissance troop, and one he trained himself, Bo Boke was curious and felt that perhaps Bei Zun was his true master.

After all, in Bo Boke's view, even if the Demon race is brave, they need to use strategy and cannot just act recklessly. ===== CHAPTER 2195 =====
