Chapter 123: Chapter 120: Third Lifetime: The Demon Locust Tree Transforms, Great Disaster Approaches!

"Where on earth have the Tiger Demons gone?"

"They haven’t returned to the mountain for so long, could it be that they’ve been captivated by some young lady in Qingyun County?"

A Python Demon with a snake body and human head chuckled sinisterly.

As it spoke,

it extended a large, scaly hand and pulled a human servant girl into its embrace, groping her without restraint.

The human servant girl was trembling all over in fear, but dared not make a sound, biting her lips hard as she endured the Python Demon’s harassment.

"It’s been a full five days without any news from them. Could they have fallen into the clutches of the Demon Suppression Bureau?"

One Great Demon speculated.

"Impossible. Although the Tiger Demons have cultivated for only a short time, you mustn’t forget, even the Bear Demons once fought alongside our ancestors, risking their lives."

"Unless the Demon Suppression Bureau dispatched a great number of experts, setting up a Heaven and Earth Net in advance, there’s no way they could capture them."

"Besides, even if the Demon Suppression Bureau’s strongmen intervened, the Tiger Demons would still manage to escape, at least a couple of them."

An Ape Demon with gray-white fur shook its head, dismissing this guess.

Black Wind Ridge is cut off from information, usually relying on Wu Yong and others to pass on news.

But ever since Lu Yuan massacred Qingyun County, the Demons of Black Wind Ridge were effectively blindfolded, having to depend on their lesser demons to gather intelligence.

This made communication with the outside world difficult, and it was hard to get news promptly.

At first,

the Great Demons left at Black Wind Ridge thought the Tiger Demons were just having fun, not taking the matter seriously.

After all, each of the Tiger Demons possessed the Power of the Qi Gathering Realm. If they weren’t wary of the Nanyang Demon Suppression Bureau, they could easily have destroyed the entire Qingyun County with their strength.

And Qingyun County didn’t even have a single Third Grade Martial Cultivator; it couldn’t possibly be a threat to the Tiger Demons.

So the Demons of Black Wind Ridge didn’t give the matter much thought.

But as days passed and the Tiger Demons still didn’t return, not even sending a hint of news back—

Only then did the Demons of Black Wind Ridge finally sense something was amiss!

"Don’t worry, I’ve already sent subordinate lesser demons to scout for information in Qingyun County. We should soon receive news."

Hearing the Ape Demon’s words, the demons gradually relaxed.

After all, there were many Great Demons who couldn’t stand the monotony of the mountain and snuck into human villages for hunting and such.

And since the Tiger Demons hardly ever went into the city, how could they possibly want to return to Black Wind Ridge easily? They were probably hiding somewhere, having the time of their lives.

But it wasn’t long before

a Mouse Demon rushed into the cave, gasping for air, staggering, with a look of utter terror, as if it had been frightened.

"Great Kings, dead! The Tiger Demons are all dead!"

Before it finished its words,

all the Great Demons rose in shock, and an Ox Demon even grabbed the Mouse Demon by its neck, lifting it off the ground.

"Are these words true? You should know the consequences of reporting false information!"

The Mouse Demon hung in the air, its eyes bulging out, struggling even to breathe.

But the Ox Demon’s arm was like iron pliers, no matter how it struggled, it couldn’t move an inch!

"Let go of the Mouse Demon, how can it speak with you choking it?"

The Ape Demon frowned and spoke up to save the Mouse Demon.

Though many Great Demons of Black Wind Ridge had unlocked spiritual intelligence, most of them were simple-minded, engaging like a group of brute warriors.

The Mouse Demon regained its breath from the edge of death, collapsing onto the ground, gasping for fresh air.

Then, under the Ape Demon’s questioning, it explained the whole story clearly.

On the day Lu Yuan slaughtered the Tiger Demons and their demon companions, the commotion was so great, it nearly leveled the entire mansion.

Such a massive disturbance couldn’t be hidden from the residents of Qingyun County.

And while the Mouse Demon was weak, it could command hundreds or thousands of mouse offspring to scout for news.

Therefore, it didn’t take much effort for it to learn of the Tiger Demons’ deaths.

Upon hearing this news,

all the Great Demons turned pale, as if struck by a thunderbolt, and froze on the spot.

The entire cave fell into dead silence, not even the sound of a pin dropping was missed.

One must know the Tiger Demons were considered exceptional, adept at pleasing the ancestors, and therefore highly regarded.

Not long after it transformed, the Tiger Demon had been taken in as the ancestor’s godson.

The ancestor not only doted on the Tiger Demon, but also risked using primordial energy and blood essence to cleanse its foundation, even rewarding it with treasures like the Soul-devouring Pearl.

And the Tiger Demon lived up to expectations, stepping into the Third Grade Qi Gathering Realm in less than twenty years.

Deemed the most gifted demon in Black Wind Ridge’s history!

After all, demons are cast away by heaven and earth, their cultivation painstakingly difficult.

Like Pig Demons, Ox Demons—all had to spend hundreds of years in arduous cultivation to become Third-Grade Great Demons.

Yet the Tiger Demon needed less than twenty years.

Such frightening cultivation speed was akin to a human child becoming a Third-Grade Martial Cultivator at the age of two!

But now, what had they heard?

The Tiger Demon, whom the ancestor had high hopes for, was dead?!

Suddenly dead in Qingyun County, leaving not even a bone behind!

The Snake Demon, busy violating the human servant girl, heard this news, and a flash of fury flickered in its crimson vertical pupils.

The great demon clad in scales lifted her up, and a slight exertion of force snapped the servant girl’s neck!

"Who dares to treat us from Black Wind Ridge with such cruelty?"

"Common sects wouldn’t dare provoke us, only the Demon Suppression Bureau would have the guts!"
