The Gate Between Two Realms, from Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit to Fox Spirit Matchmaker
Chapter 17: Why are there so many demons within the Dao Alliance territory?
"Why are there so many demons within the territory of the Dao Alliance?"
"Knowing full well that they would be in great danger once they entered the territory of the Dao Alliance, they still chose to venture deep into it."
"Is it really possible that there are people who are willing to risk their lives to eat people?"
Rainbow Cat was puzzled. If it were him, even if he resented the human race, he would understand.
It's impossible for them to do something so mindless.
Moreover, the number of cannibalistic incidents involving demons within the Dao Alliance territory is far too frequent.
Either the Dao Alliance itself is already in chaos, or the land where humans live is extremely dangerous.
Either someone deliberately led them to this dangerous place.
"Rainbow Cat, come on, have some water."
"This mountain spring water is so sweet."
The appearance of the Jade Flower interrupted Rainbow Cat's thoughts.
Looking at the smiling Jade Little Ephemeral in front of him, Rainbow Cat took the water bottle and thought of another question.
"Little Tan, how long have you been away from home?"
"Shouldn't we go back sooner?"
"Otherwise, your family would definitely be worried about you."
Rainbow Cat knew in his heart at this moment whether it was for the first or the second reason.
There was hardly any reason for them to stay within the territory of the alliance. Over the course of five days, they passed through four towns and inquired everywhere, but found no news of Zhangjiajie.
It would be better to go and see other places sooner rather than later.
Since people regard him as a demon, is it possible that Zhangjiajie is actually within the territory of the demon race?
"Yes, I've been out for seven or eight days now."
"If we don't go back on the fifth day of the tenth lunar month, our master will be back soon."
After being reminded by Rainbow Cat, a hint of anxiety flashed in Jade Little Lotus's eyes.
She had sneaked out, and only had this opportunity because her master, Cuiyu Mingluan, was away on business in Tushan.
If I don't go back soon, I'm afraid I'll be punished when I get back.
"Yunze, shouldn't we go back?"
"There are less than ten days left until the fifth day of the tenth lunar month."
"If we don't go back soon, it won't be good when Master returns."
Cuiyu Xiaotan turned her gaze to Cuiyu Yunze beside her.
Neither of them noticed that Rainbow Cat's gaze was fixed on Jade Cloud's face.
A strange expression appeared on Cuiyu Yunze's face. Although he quickly returned to normal, it was still noticed by Hongmao.
"Miss, the Dao Alliance is not far from Tushan."
"Our current route should give us enough time to get back in five days."
"Why don't you visit other human towns these next few days, Miss?"
"It will be very difficult to have this opportunity again in the future."
Cuiyu Yunze smiled and offered his suggestion to Cuiyu Xiaotan.
Although the words were perfectly phrased and sounded perfectly appropriate.
In reality, any guard or attendant would not have advised their master in this way.
Go back sooner, and you'll be safer sooner.
These days have proven that the Dao Alliance is fraught with crises.
Even the towns they had visited before were filled with rumors about them.
A demon wielding a sword robbed the Xiao family's caravan and stole many of their valuables.
Therefore, they sent messages to towns and cities in various places in hopes of obtaining intelligence.
Even those of them who stayed at the inn knew about it, let alone some of the cultivators from the Dao Alliance.
"Yeah, we'd better have a blast this time."
"I'm afraid there won't be another chance next time."
Cuiyu Xiaotan's eyes lit up, and she agreed with Cuiyu Yunze's words.
However, she immediately felt that something was amiss and was just about to bring it up when...
Rainbow Cat, however, preemptively said, "I feel that this is somewhat inappropriate."
"These past few days, we've been fraught with danger while traveling within the Dao Alliance's territory."
"Even if it's not specifically targeting us, it still shows that this is not a safe place."
"Moreover, there's already news from the front lines that they're searching for us."
Upon hearing Rainbow Cat's words, the expressions on the faces of Jade Cloud Ze and Jade Little Tan changed somewhat.
Cuiyu Xiaotan thought what Hongmao said made a lot of sense and nodded repeatedly.
On the contrary, Cui Yuyunze's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Jin Renfeng had not been able to contact him for several days. If he took Cuiyu Xiaotan back, he wouldn't have such a good chance to coax her out again next time.
"Yunze, let's go back."
"To be on the safe side, we can't let the master find out."
"We can't let the Dao Alliance find out."
"Furthermore, I want to take Rainbow Cat back to see the home of our Hiru-yō clan."
"It's so beautiful there, so much better than here."
Jade Little Lotus happily made a circle with Rainbow Cat's hand.
She was incredibly happy when she talked about her hometown and looked forward to going back with Rainbow Cat.
"Miss, have you thought this through?"
"If I go back this time, I'm afraid I'll never have another chance to come out."
"Moreover, even if the Xiao family is causing trouble for you, they don't know what we look like or what our cultivation level is; it's just a rumor."
When Cuiyu Yunze saw that Cuiyu Xiaotan had already made her decision, he immediately became anxious.
His sudden change of behavior only deepened Rainbow Cat's suspicions.
However, he did not say it outright at this moment, but just silently looked at Cuiyu Yunze.
"Brother Yunze, this is not something I should be the one to say."
"But after all, Miss Xiaotan has already made her decision."
"I think it's better if you don't make the decision on your own."
"Don't Brother Yunze miss home at all?"
Rainbow Cat had no intention of alerting the enemy, not even before today.
He had never doubted Cui Yuyunze, but now he had no choice but to doubt him.
"Well... I just felt that it's not easy for Miss to go out."
"Young Master is right. Since Miss has already made her decision, then Yunze will not say any more."
"Wait a moment, I'll take a look at the map and plan my way back."
Cuiyu Yunze smiled and nodded, then walked to the side and picked up the map to look at it.
At this moment, not only Rainbow Cat, but even Jade Xiaotan felt that something was wrong.
"Miss Xiaotan, what is your relationship with this attendant?"
"I have no intention of offending Miss Xiaotan in the slightest; I am merely curious."
Rainbow Cat is 70% certain that Jade Cloud is a problematic person.
Some even suspect that the events they've encountered in the past few days might be related to Cuiyu Yunze.
"We have a very good relationship; she has always taken good care of me."
"Every time he comes back from the outside world, he tells me about the interesting things that happened there."
"This time, he also took the initiative to tell me that Master would be leaving for a while to handle some business."
That's why I asked him to take me out to play.
Cuiyu Xiaotan only felt that Cuiyu Yunze was acting strangely, but he was her attendant who had been with her day and night for ten years.
She naturally didn't suspect the other party of having any ulterior motives; she simply thought in her heart that perhaps Cuiyu Yunze didn't want to go back yet.
