Chapter 115 Cut the weeds and nip them in the bud

Judging from this posture, it's clear that they're determined to have the two of them completely under their control.

"They are all ordinary people, not even cultivators."

"If I kill them, Rongrong will laugh at me when I get back."

Tu Shan Ya Ya sighed softly, originally thinking it would be a very interesting shady shop.

But those who emerge from this situation, no matter how large they are, are still just ordinary people.

For Tu Shan Ya Ya, it didn't arouse any interest at all.

With just a casual wave of his hand, the entire inn was swept by a chill, and thick layers of frost formed.

As for the people in this shady shop, Tu Shan Ya Ya didn't kill them. Instead, she only froze them before getting up to leave.

"Shouldn't we kill them?"

Rainbow Cat looked at Tu Shan Ya Ya, who was about to leave, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

In Rainbow Cat's opinion, killing these people is the best course of action.

Judging from the bloodstains on these people, this kind of business must have happened more than once or twice.

If it were the two of them, who weren't powerful cultivators today, but ordinary people, Tu Shan Ya Ya would probably have been sold out.

The outcome was predictable.

"Should we kill them?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya looked at Hong Mao with some surprise, thinking that Hong Mao didn't want her to kill these people.

After all, in her eyes, Rainbow Cat was a person with a strong sense of justice.

Such a person should not really enjoy killing.

"Yeah, they do this kind of business, whether it's for survival or not."

"But if we ignore it, many more people will surely die at their hands in the future."

"Killing them is the best solution."

Rainbow Cat didn't believe that the members of this gang would repent and change their ways just because the two of them were magnanimous enough to let them go.

In such extremely harsh conditions, they would do anything to survive.

So, Rainbow Cat stood up and, with a single swing of his sword, took the lives of everyone present.

The stench of blood immediately filled the entire inn.

"I never knew you had this side to you."

"It's simply..."

"Is the righteous turning evil?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya looked at Hong Mao with some surprise; she had originally intended to kill these people as well.

But when she thought of Rainbow Cat, she chose to stop.

But seeing the blood all over the ground, she had a different opinion of Rainbow Cat.

"Second Master, this kind of thing should be normal, right?"

"Let's go, let's get some rest for the night, and then we'll continue our journey."

Rainbow Cat shook his head; he didn't think there was anything wrong with killing these people.

Now that he has seen them, he will kill them.

Then, I went upstairs to go back and rest.

"This kid is really a weirdo."

"However, these people really deserve to die."

Tu Shan Ya Ya glanced outside, then used her icy aura to completely freeze the inn's main entrance before going upstairs.

On the fourth day, after resting for a night, the two continued their journey.

Their goal was not merely to travel around this southern border region.

It is the very heart of the Southern Kingdom, the capital of the Southern Kingdom.

That is the only place that Rainbow Cat and Tu Shan Ya Ya are aiming for.

However, the capital of the Southern Kingdom was still several days' journey away, so Rainbow Cat and Tu Shan Ya Ya were not in a hurry to travel.

It wasn't until we entered the inland areas of the south that the environment looked much better.

At least it's not like those border towns, where people eat each other.

The town is not only inhabited by humans, but also by a portion of the demon race.

These demons and humans appeared to be living in perfect harmony.

What made Rainbow Cat and Tu Shan Ya Ya somewhat uncomfortable was that almost every cultivator here, whether human or demon, was a poison cultivator.

. . . . . .

The aura emanating from them made both of them extremely uncomfortable.

"Honestly, why did Rongrong have to bring us here?"

"This southern country is full of poison cultivators, and the smell on their bodies is awful."

Tu Shan Ya Ya pinched her nose, already wanting to leave.

But Rainbow Cat had no such intention; instead, he looked towards the roadside.

Not only were there numerous missing person notices, but there were also many people gathered at the entrance of a place resembling a government office on the roadside.

Judging from their words, it seemed they were talking about something like a disappearance.

Moreover, most of them were able-bodied men who had disappeared without a trace.

"It seems there's some trouble here."

"When we passed by that government office just now, many women were talking about how their men had disappeared."

"Let's go take a look."

Rainbow Cat observed the conversation that had just taken place in the yamen, and he already knew some things.

Although humans and transvestites can coexist peacefully here, it does not mean that humans are absolutely safe.

Otherwise, such a thing would not happen.

"Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

"Didn't you say yourself that when traveling, it's best not to create trouble for yourself?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya shook her head; she had no intention of getting involved in this mess.

Clearly, these people have been captured by some powerful monster.

With such a large number of people, this monster's strength and status in the Southern Kingdom must be considerable.

Otherwise, it would be unreasonable for even the son of a high-ranking official to turn a blind eye to such things.

"This is not a problem."

"We should help others when they need it; it is our duty as successors of the Seven Swords."

"As long as I possess the Rainbow Sword, I will fulfill this duty."

Rainbow Cat has made up his mind; after all, he doesn't have a specific goal or timeline for this trip.

Since there are things he can do, he naturally won't refuse.

When Tu Shan Ya Ya saw Hong Mao like this, she couldn't help but sigh softly.

Although she neither eats people nor enjoys killing, she still has a vague understanding of the concept of justice.

As a demon, she only knew how to bully the weak, which was something she couldn't stand.

In Rainbow Cat, she saw something that did not belong to the contemporary demon race.

It's not just about fairness; as a demon, he is determined to strive for fairness between humans and demons.

She initially thought that Rainbow Cat was prejudiced against the demon race, but gradually she discovered that Rainbow Cat was not prejudiced against the demon race.

Rather, it's simply about protecting vulnerable people or demons.

This unique quality that other demons lacked made her even more curious about Rainbow Cat.

Following Rainbow Cat, they went to the outskirts of the city. According to the news they heard outside the government office, most people had disappeared in the south.

However, they did not smell any blood along the way. If they were kidnapped by demons, they were most likely eaten.

"Are we going in the wrong direction?"

"It's impossible that a monster kidnapped so many people and then didn't eat them."

As Tu Shan Ya Ya walked along, neither of them sensed any blood or gore.

This inevitably made her somewhat doubtful, or rather, she felt that the search route seemed a bit off.

"It's possible, but the possibility isn't very high."

Rainbow Cat nodded as well; he even felt that such a possibility existed.

After experiencing many things, Rainbow Cat has come to understand that not all monsters like to eat human flesh.

However, Tu Shan Ya Ya did not think so. For many demons, human flesh and blood were a great tonic.

This applies even to ordinary cultivators.

Therefore, she believed it was impossible for a monster to be so foolish as to not eat human flesh when it was available.

At worst, some evil cultivators will take these people away and conduct some kind of poison experiment.

But soon, when Tu Shan Ya Ya and Hong Mao arrived at a forest in the south, a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

"It seems you guessed wrong, Second Boss."

Rainbow Cat was somewhat surprised by what he saw.

Those able-bodied men who disappeared in the city are really here, and there are quite a few of them.

These able-bodied men were neither killed nor eaten; instead, they were simply doing backbreaking labor here.

"What do we do now? They don't seem to be doing too badly."

Tu Shan Ya Ya coughed twice, unable to help but feel a little curious.

Who on earth would bring so many able-bodied men here?

"There are quite a few monsters, but none of them are particularly powerful."

"Judging from this, they must have been captured and brought here to do hard labor."

"What should we do? Go and rescue them?"

This was the first time Tu Shan Ya Ya had ever seen anything like this.

She thought that by the time they found these people, they would probably be nothing but bones.

Surprisingly, not only were they all there, but they were all still full of energy, just without freedom.

"I sensed a demonic power, the strongest among this group."

"Let's go take a look first."

"Who knows, we might gain something from this."

Rainbow Cat thought for a while and decided to go and see what was going on.

Since no one has sacrificed themselves yet, it's not a big problem that these people have been abducted here.

"That's a good idea. I also want to go and see which monster did this."

Tu Shan Ya Ya nodded; her thoughts were the same as Hong Mao's.

I'd also like to see which weirdo did these things.

It seemed as if these human strongmen were simply building a structure.

So, at this moment, she was also quite curious about this.

Then the two of them followed their way to a mountain next door. On the mountaintop, they saw a monster leaning back in a grand chair, drinking tea. Their gazes became strange.

"A spider demon?"

"His strength is not bad, barely reaching the level of a demon king."

"But this place is just too strange."

"How could a mere spider demon who has just stepped into the realm of demon kings wreak havoc on an entire town like this?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya looked at the spider demon lying on the armchair overseeing the work, and a strange expression appeared on her face.

A monster with such power would be nothing more than a nobody in their Tushan.

Even if the Southern Kingdom, which is stronger than them, has a larger territory, it shouldn't be allowed to have its order disrupted by monsters of this level.

"How dare you speak of our King like that!"

"Where did this human brat come from? He probably doesn't want his own life!"

The two little demons beside the spider demon immediately stepped forward when they saw the two of them speaking of their king in such a way.

However, these two had no deterrent effect on Rainbow Cat or Tu Shan Ya Ya.

Tu Shan Ya Ya casually blew a breath, and the two of them were frozen into ice sculptures.

Seeing that her two subordinates were so easily defeated, the spider demon immediately stood up and revealed her smile.

"I am the fiancé of the Poisonous Lady of the Southern Kingdom, also known as the Poisonous Master. Neither of you are human cultivators."

"You two shouldn't be from the South, right? May I ask where you two come from?"

Poison Master revealed a fawning smile, immediately recognizing that Tu Shan Ya Ya's methods were not simple.

He's not stupid; he wouldn't offend powerful figures so easily.

Even though he also had powerful figures backing him up, he was unwilling to offend those influential people.

"Hmph, at least you have some sense."

"We are monsters from Tushan."

Tu Shan Ya Ya snorted coldly. Seeing the spider demon's fawning appearance, she was too lazy to make a move.

"May I ask why you have conscripted so many able-bodied men?"

"Don't you know that the families of these able-bodied men are extremely anxious?"

Rainbow Cat got straight to the point and stated the purpose of their visit.

Upon hearing that Rainbow Cat, being a demon, was actually speaking up for humans, and even for the sake of these able-bodied men...

A strange expression appeared on the face of the Poison Master.

"this..."

"Actually, I also have my own unspeakable difficulties; this is the truth."

The Poison Master coughed twice and then revealed the truth of the matter.

His original intention was to hire some craftsmen to help him build a Star-Picking Tower so that he could propose to his fiancée.

The intention was good, but in reality, finding enough able-bodied men in the South was extremely difficult.

Moreover, there is a certain timeframe for the project, so most craftsmen are unwilling to take on this job.

In the end, the Poison Master had no choice but to forcibly bring these craftsmen and some able-bodied men here.

"I never expected that someone as ugly as you could be so romantic."

"I'm asking you, did these people receive any wages?"

When Tu Shan Ya Ya heard the Poison Master's true intention, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

Then, a question that Rainbow Cat was particularly interested in was asked.

"Don't worry, my wife is a big shot in the South."

"How could I possibly disgrace my wife?"

"I will pay every able-bodied man here as long as he finishes his work."

The spider demon patted his chest and assured the two that he would definitely pay these strong men their wages.

He also revealed the name of his fiancée.

Poisonous Lady, one of the Five Poison Protectors of the Southern Kingdom.

"The Five Poison Protectors? The Poisonous Lady?"

Rainbow Cat was not familiar with the affairs of the Southern Kingdom, so he turned his gaze to Tu Shan Ya Ya.

After all, he was the second-in-command of Tushan. Although he didn't usually get involved in affairs, he was still quite clear about the division of power among the demon race.

"He is indeed a very famous person."

"He is a subordinate of Huan Du Qingtian, the Poison Emperor of the Southern Kingdom, and he wields considerable power within the Southern Kingdom."

"If he really is the Poisonous Lady's husband, he shouldn't do anything so despicable."

Tu Shan Ya Ya nodded; she had heard of the Five Poison Protectors.
