Zhang San, please behave yourself!
Chapter 799 - 735: Aren’t You Going to Ask Us to Stay for Dinner?

Chapter 799: Chapter 735: Aren’t You Going to Ask Us to Stay for Dinner?

"Such a high place, such a deep volcano crater, I indeed dare to jump... it’s just you guys I’m worried about..."

Zhang San said, first glancing at Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums, and then turning his head to look at Hu, whispering, "Do you think he doesn’t dare?"

Silly Roe Deer immediately got angry upon hearing this, glaring at Hu and snapping, "Who are you saying doesn’t dare?"

Hu was dumbfounded, what the heck did I say!

But soon, Hu understood what Zhang San was trying to do.

"I’m not saying you don’t dare, it’s just that I feel you definitely don’t have the courage to be the first one. Of course, it’s understandable, after all, you always looked like the kind who can only dare to do things when you’re following behind my butt..."

Swoosh—

Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums made a daring leap and jumped down the volcano crater.

Zhang San looked into the crater for a while and didn’t hear any screams of agony, nor did he feel the fluctuations of battle, which put his mind at ease.

Then he, too, made a daring leap and jumped down.

With a sigh of resignation, Hu turned to Baili Niezhen and said, "There probably isn’t any danger, but if you’re worried, you can wait here for us to come out and leave together..."

Before Hu could finish, Baili Niezhen leaped down towards the volcano crater.

This time, Hu felt awkward.

"After all this, I’m the biggest coward, huh?"

Saying this, Hu also jumped down.

Splash—

When Zhang San landed, he fell directly into the lava.

Fortunately, Zhang San immediately protected himself with Qi Gang, then he saw Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums standing on the lava with white clouds formed by the condensation of cold qi under his feet.

Shortly after, Zhang San sensed a figure falling from the sky and quickly extended Qi Gang to catch them, only to realize it was Baili Niezhen.

Had he known there would be such a segment, he would have had Baili Niezhen wear a dress.

"Since this place is all lava, where are we supposed to find the Candle Dragon?"

Zhang San asked Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums, the first to come down.

Silly Roe Deer shook his head and replied, "I don’t know either! But you guys are consuming too much Qi Gang like this. Come over here! I can support your weight, I guarantee you won’t..."

Before Silly Roe Deer could finish speaking, a golden figure descended from above.

With a thud, it crashed onto Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums, and then both demon beasts fell into the lava.

"Ahhhhh— it’s hot... huh? It doesn’t seem that hot!"

Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums stood up from the lava.

Hu also rose up, looking around and said, "This place is an Illusion Array. Besides, most of the fire energy within this lava has been extracted, which is why it’s not very hot."

Realizing they were surrounded by a Formation, Zhang San immediately applied the Triple Combat Talisman to his eyes, piercing through all the illusions around them.

"This way!"

Soon, Zhang San led everyone out of the lava.

Then, the four of them saw a place outside the Illusion Array that looked like a living room.

A middle-aged and strong man with fiery red whiskers, who was boiling water to brew tea, coldly said, "Uninvited guests, what are you looking at? Leave immediately!"

Zhang San immediately took two steps forward, cupped his fists in salute, and said, "Might you be the venerable Candle Dragon? I am the Deputy Chief of the Town Demon Office, Zhang San, and I have come to meet you, venerable Candle Dragon."

Candle Dragon frowned slightly, knowing that the other party could recognize him meant someone had guided them here, telling them that this was his residence.

"I have no fondness for your Town Demon Office, and while I’m not in the mood to use people as fuel right now, you’d better leave quick."

Zhang San continued respectfully, "Although I am the Deputy Chief of the Town Demon Office, I have just taken office. My visit to Longyou Road this time harbors no ill will towards the All Things Path..."

"I don’t believe it!"

Zhang San’s words were abruptly cut off by Candle Dragon’s gruff interruption.

"Candle Dragon senior, it’s true. My visit this time is precisely because I hope the Demon Clan of the All Things Path can peacefully coexist with the Great Sui in the future."

"I don’t believe it!"

Candle Dragon turned its head and glared at Zhang San.

"If you refuse to leave, then I’ll really have to use you as firewood!"

Zhang San pouted and said, "Senior, that’s not fair! There are four of us here, why must I be the one to become firewood?"

"You are from the human race! They are not!"

Zhang San immediately pointed toward Baili Niezhen behind him and said, "She is too!"

Baili Niezhen had an embarrassed look on her face, not sure whether to smile or to be more serious.

Candle Dragon countered, "Do you consider Half-Demons to be human in your eyes?"

Zhang San explained, "Forget about Half-Demons! Even those two, in my eyes, are also human!"

Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums pointed at Hu next to him and hurriedly explained, "Let me clarify! I can be considered human since I’ve undergone Transformation! But this one... maybe not so much!"

Candle Dragon was taken aback and looked at Zhang San anew.

It had indeed considered using him as firewood.

It had heard that using a human as firewood to burn and then brew tea made the tea particularly aromatic.

But now, it seemed this human was not quite like the ones it had known before.

Zhang San saw that Candle Dragon’s hostility toward him appeared to have lessened and immediately struck while the iron was hot.

"Candle Dragon senior, previously, three supreme demons from the All Things Path came to our Capital Region Road in the Great Sui and attacked the Red Dust Immortal on the Imperial Path. Two were slain. After this incident, the Red Dust Immortals from All Things Path had no response. I am wondering if something troublesome has befallen your Red Dust Immortals?"

"I don’t know!"

At first, Candle Dragon simply thought this human was somewhat peculiar, but now, it seemed this human was also not so simple.

"Then, if... I mean, if something has happened to your Red Dust Immortals in the All Things Path, or they are no longer able, would you be willing to be more friendly towards us humans and then we could collaborate together?"

"I won’t do it! I just want to live freely and leisurely; why would I want to become a Red Dust Immortal!"

At this moment, Candle Dragon looked clearly displeased, then lifted a hand and pointed toward the distance.

A crack suddenly appeared on the stone wall, revealing a faint light, clearly indicating an exit.

"You all should leave; I don’t welcome any guests here."

Zhang San realized that this Candle Dragon seemed to really dislike socializing.

Furthermore, from the other’s attitude, when he mentioned the fall of two supreme demons, it hardly showed any reaction.

However, when he mentioned the possibility of it becoming a Red Dust Immortal, it was visibly upset.

Clearly, this one just wanted to enjoy a carefree existence, like an elder relishing in the bliss of retirement.

With that being the case, there was at least no need to worry about Candle Dragon coming after them on the third day of April.

"Then I, Zhang San, will take my leave. Should the senior have any need, you may come to the Town Demon Office to have someone contact me or reach out to me through the Thousand-Eyed Rat King."

After leaving his contact information, Zhang San led everyone away.

No sooner had they left, Immortal Monarch Who Treads Snow in Search of Plums grumbled discontentedly," That Candle Dragon is so impolite. Couldn’t it offer us a meal? After all, we went through the trouble of traveling over mountains and ridges for several days to get here!"

Hu glanced at the Silly Roe Deer and snorted coldly.

"A meal? With its strength, it wouldn’t have any trouble eating all four of us!"

The Silly Roe Deer immediately retorted.

And so, the two of them started arguing again.

But Zhang San did not bother with their squabbling.

Because just then, upon discovering that there were supreme demons like Candle Dragon within the Demon Clan who did not like to be disturbed, he suddenly thought of a new plan!
