Chapter 221 The Price of Humanity!

Zhang Chen had never seen the fox fairy gritting her teeth like this. It felt like even if he had turned her body into dust, he would never have seen her so angry.

But we can also infer how much Tushan Qing was hated and how many people he had harmed.

Zhang Chen thought that this fox fairy girl was as slippery as a ghost, but she had been tricked by her many times. He secretly became alert.

"But there is one thing you need to pay attention to." At this moment, the fox fairy Nannan seemed to remember something and quickly reminded her: "Although Tushan Qing is like a rat crossing the street and everyone wants to beat him, he is the treasure of the fox ancestor and often follows him around to serve him. Since Tushan Qing appears here, it is very likely that the fox ancestor has entered the pass."

"The ancestor of the fox tribe has entered the pass?" Zhang Chen's heart trembled when he heard this, and he looked at Fox Fairy Nan: "I have destroyed your physical body, so there won't be any hidden dangers left, right?"

"Of course there is, but as long as you release my soul, the ancestor will definitely sense my location. But if you take me into the dragon energy, the ancestor will not be able to sense my breath, and naturally will not come to you at that time." said the fox fairy Nannan.

"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Upon hearing that, Zhang Chen hurriedly put the fox fairy Nannan away. He didn't want to face the fox fairy ancestor.

Chen Sanliang was acting crazy and mad. He walked out of the city and was walking with a silly smile on his face in the barren hills outside the city. Suddenly, a figure flashed in the distance. He saw a man in white clothes with a hazy white light around him walking towards him from a distance.

The figure was not tall, but his aura was hazy, so passers-by ignored him.

The man in white clothes in the distance saw the crazy Chen Sanliang and couldn't help but sigh: "What a pity for this person's intelligence! If it weren't for the academy's obstruction, I'm afraid he would be comparable to the master in the future. My demon clan is currently lacking such a great scholar to educate all living beings. If we can invite him into the demon clan, the speed at which my demon clan will open up its civilization and wisdom will be faster."

Thinking of this, the man in white came in front of Chen Sanliang and blocked his way. Chen Sanliang looked at the man in white who was blocking his way, smiled crazily, and passed by him directly.

The man in white turned around and looked at Chen Sanliang who was getting farther and farther away. He pointed at him from a distance and drew a circle under Chen Sanliang's feet. Chen Sanliang seemed to have encountered a barrier and could only run back and forth inside the barrier.

"Huh~" The crazy Chen Sanliang seemed to have discovered something interesting. He squatted down and looked at the circle under his feet with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

At this time, the figure in white came in front of Chen Sanliang, then took out a stick of incense in his hand and lit it outside the earth circle. Then, under the control of the man in white, the incense, like a series of small snakes, drilled into Chen Sanliang's nostrils.

As white smoke continued to pour into Chen Sanliang's mouth and nose, Chen Sanliang's crazy laughter gradually stopped, and then he gradually calmed down, sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed and meditating.

When the incense was finished burning, Chen Sanliang opened his eyes and looked at the man in white outside the circle: "Thank you for saving me, otherwise my life would be ruined."

"I just admire your talent and can't bear to see you become a lunatic." The man in white said softly.

"May I ask your name?" Chen Sanliang stood up respectfully and bowed to the man in white.

The man in white smiled softly upon hearing this, waved his hand to wipe off the circle on the ground, and then said: "Qingqiu clan: Bai Cang."

Hearing the man introduce himself, Chen Sanliang's pupils shrank: "So you are the ancestor of the Qingqiu clan. Chen Sanliang greets His Majesty."

"Don't be so polite." Bai Cang said with a smile: "We demons don't care about such false formalities."

Chen Sanliang was no longer polite after hearing this, but stood there respectfully, looking at Bai Cang with his eyes: "Old Ancestor spent rare treasures to save me, I wonder what you want to say? If I can do it, I will never refuse."

"Oh? Now that you know my identity, you are still willing to do things for me?" Bai Cang asked in surprise.

Hearing Bai Cang's words, Chen Sanliang smiled bitterly and said, "Old Ancestor, you are joking. If you hadn't saved me, I would have been mentally disturbed, and my energy would have continued to dissipate, getting worse day by day, until my soul was shattered. You have done me such a great favor, even if it means you want my life, I will do it."

"What if what I ask you to do is harmful to the human race? What if it goes against the interests of Confucianism? What if it conflicts with what you have learned? Will you do it or not?" Bai Cang looked at Chen Sanliang and posed a difficult question to him.

Chen Sanliang fell silent after hearing this, and after a long while he said, "Do it! Of course we have to do it!"

"Are you willing to betray the human race?" Bai Cang asked in surprise.

"After I'm done, I'll commit suicide to atone for my sins." Chen Sanliang said.

Bai Cang nodded with satisfaction when he heard this. He liked Chen Sanliang like this.

"The reason why I saved you is because I love your talent. The human race has no place for you now, so why don't you follow me to the demon race. As long as you join the Qingqiu clan, I am willing to worship you as a demon master, take charge of the demon clan's education responsibilities, grasp the overall situation of my demon clan, be an assistant by my side, and help me find out the shortcomings and make up for the gaps and straighten out the overall situation of the demon clan." Bai Cang said sincerely: "You are such a talent, the human race can't accommodate you, but my demon clan can. You have such a great talent, but you were defeated by the calculations of a group of villains. Are you really willing to accept it?"

"You know, you opened up a path, and in the future you will be the second saint of the human race who can rival the Master. What a great fortune this is! And you just lost it like this! Are you willing to be stopped by a group of despicable villains?" Although Bai Cang's voice was calm, it was filled with an indescribable sharpness, which went straight to the deepest flaw in Chen Sanliang's heart: "Even your wife died in the hands of villains in order to protect your path. Are you really willing to lose all this? Are you willing for them to seize your Dao fruit, and then rise up and take away the glory that belongs to you?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Sanliang's breathing quickened, his chest heaved with his fists clenched, his eyes turned red, and he stood there feeling his brain buzzing and his body shaking.

On one side is the justice of the human race, and on the other side is his own grievances. The two thoughts are constantly fighting and impacting his heart.

"If you agree, I can find a way to revive your wife. My demon clan has the supreme divine object, the Soul-binding Lamp. As long as we light the lamp and burn the items left by the living, we can capture their energy scattered between heaven and earth and condense their souls again. As for your wife's physical injuries, as long as we find a way, there are always ways to repair them in this world. There are so many tombs in the world, and there are always things that can be dug out to save lives. I even have hope of reviving your wife now. I have news about the divine object that can bring people's bodies back to life." Bai Cang said. As expected, after hearing Bai Cang's words, Chen Sanliang's breathing became rapid, and his eyes stared at Bai Cang: "Please give me some advice, ancestor."

"Now, a large tomb has been unearthed in the territory of Pingbian Palace. Inside the tomb is a coffin made of the immortal tree, and an ancient demon god is buried inside it. If you can take the coffin, there may be hope of resurrecting your wife." Bai Cang's face became serious.

"Really? The ancestor didn't lie to me?" Chen Sanliang's breathing suddenly quickened when he heard that.

"In fact, my fox clan dug out a small branch of the Longevity Tree in the past. However, that branch was very small, only the size of a palm, but it still allowed me to extend my life by sixty years. This time, I sneaked in from outside the Great Wall of Bones. Originally, I just wanted to steal the dragon meat, but I was attracted by the breath of the Longevity Tree. As soon as the breath of the curtain was leaked, I had already sensed the breath of the Longevity Tree." There was a hint of greed in Bai Cang's eyes.

A branch of the immortality tree directly extended his life by sixty years. What an incredible fortune!

Practitioners do not complain about their long lifespan. Compared with the tree of immortality, what is a mere dragon meat?
"As long as the ancestor can agree to my two conditions, I will give up my human identity today and follow you. In the future, I will do whatever you want without hesitation." Chen Sanliang finally couldn't bear Bai Cang's bargaining chip and knelt down to pledge his allegiance.

He has now become a rat crossing the street among the human race, and everyone wants to kill him. With his own means, he has no chance of obtaining the Tree of Immortality.

"What conditions do you have? Feel free to tell me." Bai Cang asked.

"First, please use all means to save my wife. Second, please avenge me. If he gives me a demon army one day, I will cross the Great Wall of Bones and massacre the Confucianism with blood." Chen Sanliang's eyes were bloodshot at this time.

"I agreed to the conditions, but..." Bai Cang hesitated to speak.

"But what?" Chen Sanliang asked.

"This is the heartland of the human race. With Xie Xuan watching us, it will be extremely difficult for me to seize the Tree of Immortality." Bai Cang's voice was full of helplessness.

"Xie Xuan is a member of the imperial court. It's not easy for Xie Xuan to stay in Pingbian Palace and Taiping Dao. It will be very difficult to seize the Longevity Tree. How about going to the Huangtian Dao Alliance in person? If you form an alliance with Huangtian Dao and Pingbian Palace, you may have a chance." When Chen Sanliang said this, a light flashed in his mind, and a ruthless plan emerged in his mind:

"I have a plan that can be used as a gift for joining the demon tribe."

"What's your plan?" Bai Cang asked curiously.

"The ancestor should also know that the Pingbian Palace is now fighting openly and secretly with the imperial court. The Pingbian Palace is ambitious and may rebel at any time, but because it lacks a master who can fight against the twelfth-level mystery, it has to swallow its anger in the face of the imperial court. If the demon clan can secretly form an alliance with the Pingbian Palace, and on the condition of providing the twelfth-level mystery to contain the imperial court, ask the Pingbian Palace to open the pass, secretly let the demon clan enter the pass, cede land and become king, and then the two sides pretend to confront each other openly, but secretly erode the land of the Dasheng Dynasty, by then the demon clan will gradually gain a foothold in the White Bone Great Wall, hehe..." Chen Sanliang did not continue here, but Bai Cang already knew what Chen Sanliang said next.

"Does the Pingbian Palace have the guts to form an alliance with my demon clan? Dare to secretly collude with my demon clan?" Bai Cang was quite tempted at this time: "How feasible is this plan?"

"Ten points!" Chen Sanliang said.

"What do you mean?" Bai Cang asked.

"The Pingbian Palace has been secretly planning for hundreds of years, wanting to transform from a dragon into a dragon and give birth to a twelfth-level mystery that can fight against the Dasheng Dynasty. Its rebellious intentions are obvious. It would be fine if he succeeded in transforming from a dragon into a dragon, and by then a twelfth-level mystery would appear in the north, and the Dasheng Dynasty would have no choice but to accept it. But now the key is that the Pingbian Palace has failed, and the biggest trump card of the Pingbian Palace has been exposed. What would you do if you were the Emperor of Dasheng?" Chen Sanliang asked.

"Of course we should take the opportunity to uproot it and completely solve the problem." Bai Cang's eyes lit up: "But what you said is just a probability. The Dasheng court has a twelfth-level artifact, so they may not take the Pingbian Palace seriously. As long as the Pingbian King comes to the capital to apologize, the death will be solved."

"If it was in the past, the situation you described would certainly be possible, but... now the Immortality Tree has appeared!"

At this time, Chen Sanliang stretched out his tone and said, "The dragon body of Pingbian King Zhang Shicheng is still well preserved. If we put it into the Longevity Tree and use the Soul-Bounding Lamp to assist it..."

"Crack~"

Bai Cang clapped his hands suddenly, his eyes filled with excitement, and looked at Chen Sanliang with a pair of eyes full of shock: "Sir, you are so talented! You have turned the world upside down with just a little effort. With such conditions, there is absolutely no reason for the Pingbian Palace to refuse."

Chen Sanliang smiled upon hearing this, his eyes full of pride: "Besides, I always feel that old fellow Zhang Shicheng is not completely dead. If Zhang Shicheng is dead, the pattern of the dragon turning into a dragon in the north should have been broken long ago, and the flood should have been resolved. But now the moisture in the world is still gathering towards the north, and there is no sign of dispersing. Maybe Zhang Shicheng is not dead yet. If he is placed in the Longevity Tree for a few days, he may really jump out again one day."

Bai Cang took a deep breath after hearing this: "If we can open the pass of the Great Wall of Bones and cede land to the human race, why should my demon race be reluctant to give up the Soul-Binding Lamp and the Longevity Tree?"

"If this plan succeeds, I am confident that I can unite most of the demon clan to march into the land of China, split the land of China from the human race, and leave a place for my demon clan's descendants to live." Bai Cang's voice was filled with excitement.

"If the demon clan can enter the Great Wall of Bones and take root there, my demon clan is willing to cooperate with you, sir, to slaughter all the Confucian disciples and avenge you for this blood feud!" Bai Cang said.

As for the matter of the Soul-Binding Lamp and the Longevity Tree helping Chen Sanliang resurrect his wife, there was naturally no need to mention it again, because there was enough material and the Soul-Binding Lamp was not unusable after being used once.

When Chen Sanliang heard Bai Cang's words, a bitter look appeared in his eyes, and there was no smile on his face: "I just hope that after the demons enter the pass, they can treat the human people well. They are innocent."

"Don't forget, the demon race refers to all the races in the world. In the past, the human race had another name, that is: human-demon. But later the human race found an opportunity to split away, and since then, it has been out of control. The human race returning to the demon race is just a reversion to their ancestors. As long as the human people do not oppose the demon race, my demon race will never make things difficult for them!" Bai Cang patted his chest and promised.
