Chapter 1272: We stood up

Seeing that these few people showed no sign of anger, their attitude was unusually kind.

That demon race scout was stunned; no, I've said all this, aren't you angry?

Unexpected, but he still gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted.

"No more talk, what are you drinking? Get lost."

Having said all that, you can't possibly hold back any longer, even a clay figurine still has three parts of spirit.

I had already prepared for these few people to get angry, and moreover, the person who just replied is now also looking up at me.

The demon race scout felt a surge of joy; today he must find out clearly what is going on in this Haotu world, why wherever they go people stare at them with that strange gaze.

Everything was already prepared, but the next second, this person's words left the demon race scout dumbfounded.

All I heard was him nodding with a calm expression.

"Good."

He then stood up and left with his companions.

Hmm???

Watching their backs, the demon race scout was utterly bewildered; they just left? No, how could you just walk away?

I was provoking you, and you actually left without even letting out a fart?

"Stop right there."

He gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, but the few people acted as if they hadn't heard, not turning back, their steps quickening, and in the blink of an eye they vanished outside the door.

They left?

Seeing this, the demon race scout returned to his seat full of doubt, his gaze turning to his own leader.

Seeing this, the leading demon race scout said nothing, but fell into deep thought, not knowing what he was thinking.

The way these people treated them, or rather their attitude toward the demon race, was strange, as if they were afraid of them.

Not bad; in the view of the leading demon race scout, these people must be afraid of them.

Otherwise they wouldn't have just left without a word earlier; it's obvious they don't want to clash with the demon race.

For a moment, the leading demon race scout seemed to have guessed something, but he couldn't be certain; he needed to test further.

Thinking this, the demon race scout continued eating the dishes on the table without changing his expression.

After eating and drinking his fill, he obtained no useful information at all.

However, when it was time to leave, the leading demon race scout suddenly stood up, walked over to a nearby table, and spoke arrogantly.

"Today's meal, you're treating us, got it?"

Hmm???

Hearing this, the other demon race scouts were stunned; holy shit, that's so bold? They're not going to fight you.

Moreover, they saw that the leader of this table, an Ancient Tribe member, had Shèngjìng cultivation.

You're speaking to them like that?

Upon hearing this, the Ancient Tribe sage at the table indeed lifted his head and looked toward the leading demon race scout.

Their eyes met, and the other demon race scouts' hearts jumped to their throats, thinking the leader was truly bold—what is he planning to do?

Not to mention them, even the demon race scout who spoke now had no confidence in his heart.

His arrogance was also to confirm his own suspicion.

For a moment the atmosphere grew somewhat heavy, just as the demon race scouts on this side were beginning to feel unable to hold back.

The Ancient Tribe sage who had lifted his head actually nodded slowly and said.

"Good."

Hmm???

What the hell is this situation? "Good" what? You just say "good"? Didn't you hear what we said?

This development is somewhat different from what I imagined; shouldn't you be flying into a rage?

And upon hearing this, the leading demon race scout's mouth twitched into a smile—indeed just as he had guessed.

These fellows, for whatever reason, are definitely wary, or rather afraid of them.

No, more accurately, they should be afraid of the demon race.

While thinking, the leading demon race scout said nothing, turned around, and walked straight out of the tavern.

The other demon race scouts, seeing this, naturally followed closely behind.

And along the way, no one stopped them; not even the tavern's waiter stepped forward, but simply let them go.

After leaving the tavern, the leading demon race scout felt that perhaps the demon race holds a high status in the Haotu world.

On this road he saw no other demon race members, which means the demon race's numbers in the Haotu world are not many.

Moreover, because of their high status, the demon race perhaps also rarely interacts with other races, giving off an aloof, transcendent feeling.

So, when these fellows see them, they feel fear.

Could it be that the Haotu world is not dominated by humans? Or perhaps humans and the demon race jointly rule it?

In a short time, the leading demon race scout had already imagined a lot of information in his mind; the more he thought, the more he felt this was the reason.

Even if you killed him, he probably wouldn't expect that everyone's wariness of them is simply because the demon race is about to be eaten to extinction, now protected by humans, and no one may arbitrarily act against demon race ingredients.

I never expected the demon race in this Haotu world to be like this; if my guess is correct, then by relying on their demon race identity, their future actions would be much more convenient.

But we still need to confirm this further.

Thinking this, coincidentally passing a medicine shop at that moment, the leading demon race scout, without a word, strode straight inside.

The other demon race scouts behind him, seeing this, although full of doubt, still followed closely behind.

Upon entering the shop, the clerk saw a batch of demon race ingredients appear here, and was likewise stunned.

Facing such gazes, the leading demon race scout had already grown accustomed to them and didn't pay much heed.

He casually walked around the shop, picked out a bunch of medicinal pills, then went straight up to the clerk and sneered.

"I've taken a liking to these medicinal pills, but I don't intend to pay for them, got it?"

Huh???

As soon as those words were spoken, the remaining Demon Race scouts behind him were instantly stunned.

No, you're doing it like this, right? We're here to gather intelligence—why are you being so flashy? Are you afraid people won't notice us?

Keep it low-key, keep it low-key.

All the Demon Race scouts were shocked; they had angered the other side, and if they started fighting later, it wouldn't be easy to handle.

Besides, these are medicinal pills—not like that meal earlier, they don't cost much.

They had just seen that the pills the leader picked out were all of high grade.

If you don't pay for this stuff, will they just give it to you? Isn't that basically robbery?

Even the clerk's face darkened, his gaze turning icy as he looked at the lead Demon Race scout.

You've actually come to rob the shop? Is there any law left? To be this brazen in broad daylight—you don't even regard them at all.

Just by looking at the identity of these guys as Demon Race ingredients, the clerk quickly realized these ingredients had come deliberately to cause trouble.

Have you had enough? You're actively seeking death? Want to drag me down with you?

In a short time, the clerk thought of many things, then immediately nodded with a blank expression and said.

"Here, take them all and go."

Huh???

Holy shit, they gave it? All the Demon Race scouts were stunned—they actually gave it.

Meanwhile, the lead Demon Race scout gave a dark smile—indeed, as expected; if that's the case, then I'll have to stand up.
