Chapter 745: Chapter 2 Business Field [2 in 1] _3

"Chu Liang?" Yang Shenlong seemed surprised that he would bring up that name.

Qi Lin’er was dead, did the manner of her death still matter?

"That’s correct." Daoist Cang Sheng seemed to take it seriously, "Those two Demons desperately tried to save Chu Liang, claiming he carried the Demon Clan’s Sacred Object... What could it be?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Shenlong’s mind raced, and he suddenly said, "I heard from Jade Tiger that he was shocked when he first saw Chu Liang. In a short time, Chu Liang destroyed a sturdy Magic Artifact..."

He seemed to have suddenly thought of something.

"A Sacred Object that the Demon Clan would go to such lengths to possess, could it have something to do with the resurrection of the Demon God..."

"The Demon God’s true form?" Daoist Cang Sheng instantly associated it with, "The Heaven Devouring Beast!"

Yang Shenlong’s eyes remained calm, evidently, he had the same thoughts.

Earlier, when Xuan Lu and Daoist Cang Sheng were reporting, they too speculated about what it could be but were without a clue. Now, hearing Yang Shenlong’s crucial hint, they thought they could guess what it was.

If Cai Yi had directly revealed it, they might have doubted her motives. Figuring it out for themselves made it even more undisputable.

"No wonder he never left Shu Mountain after returning from the Demon Clan. It seems that there’s more than just fear of our revenge." As Daoist Cang Sheng gazed towards Shu Mountain, he continued, "He clearly fears the Demon Clan."

"Even if he held the Heaven Devouring Beast before, shouldn’t it have been obliterated by now?" Yang Shenlong asked puzzledly.

"Not necessarily." Daoist Cang Sheng’s eyes darkened, "Perhaps Shu Mountain is up to something."

Yang Shenlong shook his head softly.

From what he knew about Chu Liang, Chu might be good at scheming, but he was not a man with dark intentions and wouldn’t use the safety of the Mortal Realm as a bargaining chip.

For Daoist Cang Sheng to make such an accusation, he might be attributing his own motives to Chu Liang.

"However, even though he hasn’t left Shu Mountain lately, he has been quite busy. This sort of young man always becomes the center of attention no matter where he goes in the Four Seas and Nine Continents." Daoist Cang Sheng continued, "We could try to test him."

Yang Shenlong had no intention of defending Chu Liang; that was not why he was here today.

He then said, "Sect Leader, as Qi Lin’er is now deceased, about the matter of our ancestor, Saint Yang..."

"It will naturally be postponed...." Daoist Cang Sheng interrupted, "You are not to mention this to anyone until a suitable host is found."

"Actually, I..." Yang Shenlong started, "I can."

"You can what?!" Daoist Cang Sheng’s voice suddenly turned stern.

"I can also practice the Body Cultivation Dao, and I have a blood relationship with the ancestor, which may result in a better fit during the fusion. It could be more..." Yang Shenlong said softly.

"Do not bring this up again." Daoist Cang Sheng flicked his sleeve.

"Sect Leader..." Yang Shenlong seemed reluctant to let go.

"I am willing to sacrifice myself for this because I have reached the peak and know my limits." Daoist Cang Sheng said sternly, "But your journey in cultivation has only just begun. How can you have such a rush to get results?"

"..." Yang Shenlong fell silent.

"I made a promise to your father’s generation that I would absolutely protect all of you, there’s no chance for this." Daoist Cang Sheng said firmly, "You should go back and reflect for a year."

Yang Shenlong seemed to want to say something, but he held back, lowering his head he said, "Yes."

...

Meanwhile, the much-discussed Chu Liang was a bit embarrassed at the moment.

Inside Red Moon Square, a luxurious feast was being arranged, with various delicacies on the table and red hotpot bubbling away.

However, the people sitting in front of him, didn’t offer him any face. They just ate and drank without raising their heads to acknowledge Chu Liang.

"You..." Lin Bei frowned unhappily, as if he wanted to say something.

Chu Liang made a quiet gesture with his hand, indicating for him to be calm, then he smiled and said, "Young Master Hong, now that we’ve almost finished eating, can we start discussing business?"

"What’s there to talk about? Heh, we still insist on the same thing..." The chubby young man opposite Chu Liang lifted his head and wiped his mouth, "Without an increase in price, we won’t talk."
