Bitter Realm: Otherworldly Gods and Demons

Chapter 126 Assessing the Situation

Upon seeing this, Zhao Muzun and Yin Qiujun immediately activated the second plan: Zhao Muzun would take all the blame, while Yin Qiujun would maintain a positive image.

Yin Qiujun didn't dare to act rashly. Yi Ye Shu and Cang Suan realized that the talented scholar Riyue still had a glimmer of hope. Yi Ye Shu was hesitant to act rashly and didn't go all out to beat Zhao Muzun. Zhao Muzun successfully escaped using the "Unintelligible Protection".

Afterwards, Zhao Muzun went to explore the City of Immortality—the Records of Strange Things states that the City of Immortality has a very magical spring of immortality that can keep people forever young.

There is also the Hall of Eternal Life, which corresponds to the City of Immortality and holds the secret to granting immortality. These two cities are the next target of Zhao Muzun and Yin Qiujun's plans.

However, Zhao Muzun did not successfully enter the Immortal City; he did not even manage to reach it.

He was suddenly attacked by Su Huanzhen on the road.

This Su Huanzhen was dressed in indigo, holding a feather fan, and remained silent from beginning to end, only attacking Zhao Muzun.

After defeating him in a few moves, Zhao Muzun was filled with doubts and wanted to return to the Six Extremes Sky Bridge to investigate. However, with the Immortal City right in front of him, he remained in his original direction.

Then he met String Master Cang at the gate of the Immortal City.

Cang didn't stand on ceremony with Zhao Muzun and attacked immediately, even managing to expose Zhao Muzun's true identity in a single move.

Cang had long noticed that Zhao Muzun's cultivation method contained traces of the Xuanzong sect. While cultivation methods can deceive people, the most basic foundation cannot. Those who have cultivated profound Xuanzong techniques will have a Xuanzong Taiji Seal in their body unless their foundation is destroyed. This seal can activate the secret technique to reveal their identity.

Or they might be identified through special methods.

Cang immediately confirmed that Zhao Muzun was one of Xuanzong's biggest traitors, Jin Liuying, and immediately decided to punish him.

However, the "Mad Blade" and "Sword Master" of the Immortal City suddenly appeared and stopped the fight.

Cang wanted to investigate the Immortal City, but this was their mountain gate, so Cang had to give up for the time being.

Then "Mad Blade" said that if they wanted to enter the Immortal City, they should bring Su Huanzhen.

After hearing this, Zhao Muzun left. Cang Ze asked, "Is Su Huanzhen already dead?"

At this moment, "Mad Blade" gave Teng Xie the same answer he had given Cang earlier.

"If you can bring Su Huanzhen's corpse, you can also enter the City of Immortality."

Teng Xie thought for a moment, then spoke up, meaning that as long as it's Su Huanzhen, it's fine, right?

"Exactly."

"Your Excellency is quite interested in Su Huanzhen? Furthermore, your investigation into the Blood Moon phenomenon suggests you are very interested in the movements of the martial arts world."

"If you wish to know the reason behind this, please bring Su Huanzhen along."

These tickets are really expensive. Okay, maybe next time. Please.

after.

When Teng Xie returned to the Demon Realm, he saw that the framework of the Military Affairs Office had already been set up, and Ren Chenfu led a group of civil officials transferred from the Second Palace to ensure the smooth operation of the Military Affairs Office.

Mr. Ren dispatched Evil Eye to secretly scout around the entrances to the Demon Realm, such as Xiao Penglai, in search of Su Huanzhen's whereabouts.

"Ah, this."

Ren Chenfu was immediately bewildered. "Commander, could it be that Su Huanzhen faked his death?"

Teng Xie curled his lip. "No one in this world can truly confirm Su Huanzhen's death yet. However, I don't know anything about Su Huanzhen's situation either. Someone in the martial world looks exactly like Su Huanzhen, but he hasn't contacted Yi Ye Shu or the others, nor has he contacted me. There must be something wrong. Hmm, besides sending Evil Eye to scout the various entrances, I should also investigate this Indigo Feather Wind Lotus."

"Yes, sir."

Not long after Ren Chenfu left, Xi Mietian arrived, looking refreshed and energetic.

"With the War General taking command of the three palaces' military power, the Demon Realm is ushering in a new era."

"Alright, please have a seat, Demon Master. How is your recovery going, Demon Master?"

In Teng Xie's perception, Xi Mie Tianlai was already full of energy and vitality, clearly having fully recovered.

Looking at his current physical foundation, it is almost on par with Yama and Hanmei, and this is only half of Xi Mie Tianlai's Lotus Flower stage.

It is conceivable how powerful Yi Bu Lian Hua would have become if she had achieved perfect cultivation, or if either Yi Bu Lian Hua or Xi Mie Tian Lai had absorbed the other later.

"I have fully recovered. My next step is to go to Ten Thousand Saints Rock to settle my karmic debt with him."

"Demon, the Demon Realm has signed a ceasefire agreement with Ten Thousand Saints Rock. However, since you are a distinguished guest of the Demon Realm and have done us a great favor, the Demon Realm still wishes to offer you some support as a token of our gratitude."

As he spoke, Teng Xie conjured a token carved from black jade and handed it to Xi Mie Tian. "With this token, the demon can access any information about the martial world in Xiao Penglai, summon assassins from Youyan Zhengfu, and utilize resources from various strongholds in the demon realm. It's just a small token; the demon shouldn't find it offensive."

"ha."

Xi Mie Tianlai chuckled softly, "The War Commander's hospitality is too kind for me to accept."

Unlike Teng Xie's memory, where only Jiu Huo was able to support the Demon Realm, Xi Mie Tian dared to ask for the position of Demon Lord without even asking.

Here, Teng Xie forcefully pulled the fault line, allowing Xi Mie Tianlai to witness it firsthand. He was a master of the same level as Xi Mie Tianlai.

In addition, the demon realm is now strong and powerful.

Times have changed, and Xi Mie Tianlai clearly intends to exercise restraint rather than act recklessly.

Demon Master, you are too kind. Without you, there would be no gap in the Demon Realm that could be reconnected. I feel a little bad for the little bit of support you offer.

However, the Demon Realm has no intention of starting a war with Wanshengyan, Xuanzong, or the Righteous Path at the moment, and we ask for the understanding of the Demons:

However, the gates of the Demon Realm are always open to demons. If a demon has any needs, please feel free to make them. As long as it does not affect the overall direction of the Demon Realm, I will do my best to fulfill them.

"You're very kind, General."

Although Teng Xie's words were not what Xi Mie Tianlai most wanted to hear, they were not what he least wanted to hear either; rather, they were what he could accept with pleasure.

"Then I'll take my leave now. If anything comes up, I'll contact you again, Commander."

"Demon, please."

As Xi Mie Tianlai left the Military Affairs Bureau, he happened to run into Tun Fo Tong Zi. The two exchanged a few words, and then Xi Mie Tianlai left the Demon Realm. Tun Fo Tong Zi then came to report to Teng Xie, and asked, "Commander, you have met Yi Bu Lian Hua. Between her and the Demons, which side do you favor more?"

Well, in terms of the process, the biggest problem with the demon, Yibu Lianhua, is that he sees Xi Mie Tianlai as his own mistake. When he sees Xi Mie Tianlai, his deepest thought is that he himself is wrong. And coincidentally, Xi Mie Tianlai also thinks that Yibu Lianhua is wrong, which gives him the psychological advantage.

Tunfo nodded and said, "In addition, Yibu Lianhua also has to deal with the strange phenomenon—also, when the Tearful Sun Blood Moon phenomenon appeared before, Wansheng Rock was also violently shaken, which allowed three vicious criminals to escape. Yibu Lianhua has even more things to worry about, while the Demon is single-minded. These are the two advantages."

"Yes, the demon has these two advantages, while the Buddha does not; this is the third advantage."

Teng Xie played on a tired old joke and said, "In short, the demons have the advantage of timing, location, and popular support—that's a very clear advantage."
