Chapter 295: Walking the World Openly

“Master, why do you need to make things difficult for a pig?” Chen Chen spread his palms and said with an innocent face.

“It has obtained the Ancestral-Returning blood, so it naturally has to join the Demon Courts. Don’t worry, I won’t hurt it, even if I kill you one day, I won’t get it involved.”

After saying that, the Heavenly Diabolism master turned around and immediately added another sentence.

“You must have something to do with the death of the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor’s death, huh? Chen Chen, there’s one more reason for you to die now. You’d better watch out.”

After saying these words, the Heavenly Diabolism master directly disappeared, as if she had vanished into thin air.

Chen Chen secretly sighed. Of course, he knew that he was dealing with a villain and would receive backlash at any time.

However, it was really hard for him to turn back now!

If he refused to cooperate, he would get killed by the Heavenly Diabolism master at any moment.

“You’d better pray that I don’t become stronger than you one day! Hmph!”

After humphing coldly, Chen Chen plucked out a feather from the Parrot Demon King’s body.

Afraid that he would get silenced to death for overhearing something that he shouldn’t have, the Parrot Demon King quickly shut off four of his senses, leaving only his sense of touch available. Hence, Chen Chen had no choice but to wake him up using such a method.

“Little parrot, let’s go!”

“As you command, Lord!”

The Parrot Demon King opened his eyes and hurriedly flew towards the human frontier when he saw that there was no one in front of him.

…

Two days later.

Chen Chen returned to the human frontier without any issues. On the other hand, he knocked the Parrot Demon King out and shoved him into the Little Carefree Immortal Palace.

In the future, he might even have to go to the demons’ territory, and he had gotten used to having the Parrot Demon King as his mount, so he couldn’t let him off yet.

As for the Divine Dragon Clan’s Demon Emperor Tun Shan and the demoness, Chen Chen kept them behind too, because he thought that they might be of some use to him in the future.

Anyway, a few demonic cultivators wouldn’t take up much space. If they misbehaved, he would just knock them out.

Seeing that the Little Carefree Immortal Palace had turned into a prison, Chen Chen smiled and took out a communication token.

“Old Zhou, Wufeng City has been fine during the past few days that I wasn’t around, right?”

Zhou Renlong quickly replied, “Good, everyone’s less stressed without you around.”

Chen Chen’s face turned sullen.

‘What does Old Zhou mean? If not for the resources that I’ve provided, how could the cultivators have improved? He’s making it sound as if my presence is redundant!’

‘A bunch of ingrates!’

“What’s the matter? Do you want to come back?”

Hearing his words, Chen Chen looked at his bright yellow skin and gritted his teeth. “No…not for the time being.”

“Good that you’re not coming back.”

Huff!

Seeing this reply, Chen Chen exhaled a breath of turbid air, and he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

“Old Zhou, I suddenly thought of something.”

“What is it?”

“The matter regarding the secret realm of the Demon Clan! Now that the Demon Clan has been incorporated into Mount Wufeng, what should we do about the secret realm?”

“What should you do? What else can you do? Leave it there of course… I’ll go back to guard it after the war ends.”

Zhou Renlong had a vague ominous hunch.

Noticing the changes in his mentality, Chen Chen hurriedly said, “Clan Master, that’s not appropriate! That is the essence of the Demon Clan, I think we should take advantage of this time to go back and take a look.”

“What exactly do you want?”

Chen Chen thought about it and resorted to some exaggerated means.

“Clan Master, you have no idea. The secret realm of the Demon Clan is extraordinary. To be honest, I have seen the secret realms of many big clans this year, but none of them are comparable to that of the Demon Clan. I think there’s a huge secret hidden in the secret realm of our clan! It might be about ascension!”

Chen Chen was completely cool and collected.

Strictly speaking, he wasn’t lying. After all, he still remembered that when he got the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique, some big boss in the higher realm even cast a projection to ask him to go to a certain city after ascension.

‘This should be considered related to ascension, right?’

“Is there really such a thing?” Zhou Renlong was startled and convinced by Chen Chen.

After all, immortal ascension could be said to be the ultimate goal of the vast majority of cultivators in this realm.

“Of course there is, Clan Master, do you think that with my current wealth and status, I’d still covet that inheritance?” Chen Chen asked, sounding rather convincing and reasonable.

“No! The Demon Clan has a rule that each person can only go twice in their lifetime.”

“Well, I still have one remaining chance, don’t I? Besides, Clan Master, why talk about rules in the Demon Clan? That’s not in line with our values.”

“That doesn’t work either, the second time must be before death.”

“I won’t mention the Million-Year-Old Blood Coral again from now on.”

“The password to enter is…”

…

After getting the password, Chen Chen flew quickly towards the State of Zhou.

This time, he simply wrapped his body up tightly to prevent any misunderstanding.

After flying for two more days, Chen Chen finally arrived at the original place of the State of Zhou Demon Clan.

The place was still as desolate as before, with numerous bare mountain peaks and depleted spiritual energy.

The air was filled with a strong, sulfuric odor, and some poisonous grasses were growing tenaciously in the crevices of the rocks.

Looking at this familiar scene, Chen Chen’s heart was full of despondence. Before he knew it, nearly two years had passed.

Even he, an ignorant teenager, had now become an adult.

…

“Senior Brother, why are you back?”

A puerile voice of a child came from a nearby spot. Chen Chen turned his head to look over, only to see a little boy.

He looked exactly the same as he did when he showed up in front of Chen Chen two years ago, dressed in a green robe and a little hat. However, Chen Chen could tell at a glance that he was a Botanic Demon.

“Shengfan, have you been living here?”

Chen Chen walked over and bent down to pick up Shengfan.

This Ginseng child was the Junior Division Master of the Medical Division. If it weren’t for Shengfan who had delivered the sword to him back then, he might have already died now.

“Yes, the Master said that it’s not suitable for me to go to the battlefield between the humans and demons, so he asked me to stay here.”

Shengfan answered softly with a complicated gaze.

Chen Chen sighed in his heart and said in a gentle tone, “Your master is right, you are indeed not suitable to go to the battlefield of the human and demon races. This isn’t a suitable place for you to stay in either. Why don’t you leave with me?”

Shengfan lowered his head without saying anything.

Chen Chen saw that his eyes were full of melancholy and did not match his face. He continued to ask, “Shengfan, tell me, do you have any wishes that you want to fulfill? I’ll definitely help you if I can.”

He wasn’t lying when he said that. Shengfan had saved Chen Chen’s life but hadn’t received a single benefit from him since then.

Chen Chen had been feeling really bad about it. If he could help Shengfan, he would definitely do his best too.

Sangfan raised his head and looked at Chen Chen, his eyes full of timidness. He said softly, “Senior Brother, I want to be like you one day and travel the world openly without being assassinated.”

Hearing this answer, Chen Chen’s heart trembled.

Only after a long time did he take a deep breath and said, “Believe me, one day, you will be able to.”

After saying those words, Chen Chen called Xiao Hua and Xiao Huang, the little morning glory and Ochre Yellow Spirit over.

Although Xiao Hua’s and Xiao Huang’s degree of transformation was far less than Shengfan’s, the three little demons were very happy to meet each other. Shengfan soon agreed to follow Chen Chen in the future.

Looking at the three little demons and then recalling his encounter with the demon race, Chen Chen’s heart was a little heavy.

How difficult is it to allow a Botanic Demon to walk openly in this world?

After sighing gently, Chen Chen placed the three little ones into the Little Carefree Immortal Palace and then stepped into the mountain space.

The hideous Demon God statue was still present but Chen Chen no longer felt the sense of mystery that he did when he saw it for the first time.

He walked towards the Demon God statue and chanted an incantation that even he could not understand. The Demon God statue then began to tremble, and not long after, the light-shadow door behind was revealed.

When Chen Chen saw the door, he stepped through it without any hesitation.
