Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 500 After the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations
Silver Night's unique experiences have made him the most pro-human among all the generals under King Duguang in the entire Duguang Kingdom.

This also became a breakthrough point for players.

The incident started when a daring player fed him fried chicken while he was on duty.

This is something players often do. According to the player involved, she admitted that there was an element of gambling involved, but...

"General Silver does seem very approachable! And it has maintained a completely human appearance without retaining any animal features. It's clearly an NPC that's friendly to humans! Look at the other demon cultivators in Du Guang Kingdom, almost every one of them retains the characteristics of a demon cultivator, such as ears, eyes, tail, nose, and wings. Only General Silver, if you don't tell anyone, you wouldn't recognize it as a demon cultivator! So I'm definitely going to take the gamble!"

Another player involved retorted, "And nobody can resist fried chicken! Nobody!"

Afterwards, General Yin also expressed his strong agreement, and believed that even the bear could not.

Once you've fed an NPC the first time, you'll do it countless times.

Ever since hearing that General Silver likes fried chicken and is willing to accept food from players without losing favorability, General Silver even brought ten Qiankun bags to store the various foods that players feed him.

Since he certainly couldn't eat that much himself, Silver Night secretly shared the food with the other generals after the shift change, without the players' knowledge...

Ok……

Sending a group of demon cultivators who have been eating pure, natural, bloody food for years to come into contact with the modern delicacies developed by players and launch a devastating attack is really a bit unethical.

Those with truly unique tastes are ultimately a minority. Just look at the country famous for its terrible cuisine; its national dish is practically curry, the dish with the most spices and strongest flavor. The pursuit of spices is universal among intelligent species. If a cat can eat delicious homemade cat food, freeze-dried food, or canned food, who would want to eat dry, bland cat food?
Of course, the demon cultivators were absolutely unwilling to admit that they had succumbed to mere gluttony...

"Swallow the freeze-dried strawberries in your mouth before you speak!"

Du Guangwang rebuked him with a dark face.

Although her dark purple feathers made her seem to always have a "dark face".

A long-legged bird demon with white feathers chewed on a few freeze-dried strawberries in its beak, swallowed them hastily, and then coughed to cover its embarrassment, saying, "Ahem, Your Majesty, what I mean is that the Taiyin Sect must be plotting something! You see, I've been investigating these past few days, and they've already annexed two sects that are quite powerful among their human cultivators!"

King Du Guang narrowed his eyes: "I see you're enjoying the food that people bring you!"

"Hehehe, Your Majesty, you, you should try it too. It's sweet and sour, and it really tastes good..."

The white-feathered, long-legged bird demon smiled ingratiatingly at King Du Guang, then pulled a box of freeze-dried strawberries from its feathers and pushed it toward him.

King Du Guang merely glanced at it, without tasting it, and instead offered a rare explanation: "That Taiyin Sect Master is no ordinary cultivator. She... is probably not human either, only that she looks like one. Bai Yu, you should know that in ancient times, many gods nurtured by heaven and earth also resembled humans. Otherwise, demon cultivators like you and me wouldn't have toiled so hard to cultivate just to attain human form... what we would attain would not be human form, but the form of a god."

"Your Majesty, you...you mean..."

Bai Yu's bird eyes widened, almost incredulous at the unspoken meaning in King Du Guang's words. King Du Guang nodded slightly: "Although it's just a guess, it's roughly like this. She doesn't smell of people; instead, her aura is more like that of the gods from ancient times."

"Then, are those Taiyin Sect disciples also gods?"

Unlike the human race, who knew almost nothing about the history of ancient times, the demon cultivators of Duguang Kingdom knew some of the secrets of the past. So they knew that "god" at that time only referred to a race, not some special existence—at least it was completely different from the concept of "immortal" or "god" as we know it today.

So, when she asked that question, she was also asking about race.

“Oh, no, those are just puppets, puppets whose divine consciousness has been projected onto them by some unknown means,” said King Du Guang, then asked curiously, “With your level of cultivation, shouldn’t you be able to see through them?”

Bai Yu coughed awkwardly a few more times: "Cough, cough... Ahaha, yes, I can tell, but I thought their personalities were a bit strange, not quite like human beings..."

"I don't know what they are either, but the Kingdom of Duguang was established under the blessing of the Goddess Nuwa. Besides, who in the Ten Continents and Three Islands of the Guixu Realm doesn't owe her a debt of gratitude? Since the Taiyin Sect hasn't had any conflict with our Kingdom of Duguang, let's have a little exchange... Ah, what did the disciples of the Taiyin Sect say again? 'Establish diplomatic relations'? That's quite apt!"

As King Du Guang spoke, he squinted his eyes, which meant he was pretending to sleep, and also meant he was trying to drive away the demon.

Bai Yu was shocked to learn the secret behind Du Guang Wang's unusual closeness with the Taiyin Sect. How could he dare to harass Du Guang Wang any further? He quickly apologized and flew away from the Jianmu branch.

……

Fang Xianyu knew nothing about the various affairs within the Kingdom of Duguang.

She was delighted with the smooth establishment of diplomatic relations with Duguang Kingdom, so she grouped and packaged the demon cultivators from the various communities established by the players, and arranged for them to go to Duguang Kingdom for "further study" together with the project team.

They are euphemistically called "international students".

The cultivation methods she collected were mostly for human cultivation, so she didn't know much about the cultivation methods of demon cultivators. In order not to delay the cultivation of demon cultivators under the jurisdiction of the Taiyin Sect, she specially issued this sect decree.

Indeed, this is one of the few times she has issued a sect decree, and it is directed at the natives of the Guixu Realm. The last sect decree was about exchanging ideas with Quanxian Royal City.

For the lesser demons, going to the Kingdom of Duguang to receive personal guidance from the great demons, or even the King of Duguang, was something they wouldn't even dare to dream of. Apart from the somewhat arrogant Bamboo Fairy, even many lesser demons who were usually unassuming boldly submitted their applications.

For example, Bian Yuanzhi, Zhen Junzi, and Chai Gou Cai Cai, who are usually invisible and suffer from severe anthropophobia and can only be touched, and even Zhu Sun, who is incapable of being accepted by Jia Xiaoren, actually asked Bian Yuanzhi to submit an application for him for the first time.

"Bamboo shoots! I can't live without you, waaaaah!"

After learning about this, Zhen Junzi took the opportunity to hug the bamboo shoot and grope its black and white fur, while wailing, "I know I'm poor! I'm incompetent! Little Gray, who switched to the research institute next door, is living in a villa with his patent fees! You can only live in the sect disciple's room with me! But I really can't bear to part with you, waaaaah!"

“Master, Brother Bamboo Shoot is only going to study for a year, it’s not like he’s never coming back, and besides…”

Bian Yuanzhi, whose voice had already gone through puberty, strained his hoarse voice and tried speechlessly to pull his shameless master away, saying, "Besides, teleportation arrays are so convenient now, it's a round trip in a day! What's with all the reluctance you have to spend the money, huh!"
