Chapter 0209 – The Poison King’s Dream – Absolute Return

The Heavenly Demon Sect Master named Jian Wuji to speak to convince the Poison King.

Hearing the word “Poison King”, all the Devil Elders present became a bit gloomy as they exchanged glances with each other, seemingly worried about something.

The Blood Heavenly Demoness even couldn’t help but sigh in a low voice, obviously, she also thought that this matter was very tricky.

The Heavenly Demon Sect Master seemed to have anticipated the crowd’s reaction as he looked at Jian Wuji and asked, “Can you do it?”

“I will do my best.” Jian Wuji said in a firm tone.

The Heavenly Demon Sect Master looked at Jian Wuji with a provocative look in his eyes.

“I’d like to see if you’re capable of that or not.”

The Heavenly Demon Sect Leader’s gaze swept over all of the Demon Elders present.

His eyes, calm as water, did not have any emotional fluctuations.

However, Jian Wuji was keenly aware that the eyes of the Heavenly Demon Sect Leader looking at each of the Demon Elders were slightly different.

The look he gave to the Devil of Power was filled with appreciation; the look he gave to the Blood Heavenly Demoness carried a hint of doting; the look he gave to the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon was filled with admiration.

Only the eyes that looked at the Drunken Demon remained as cold as ever.

“If the Heavenly Demon Sect Master knew how much the Drunken Demon admired him, would he be slightly gentler to him?” Jian Wuji thought in his heart.

In the end, the Heavenly Demon Sect Master’s gaze, landed on Jian Wuji.

“Go on.”

After the Heavenly Demon Sect Master finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the Heavenly Demon Hall.

Jian Wuji and the five Demon Dignitaries respectfully bowed to the Heavenly Demon Sect Master.

“Greetings to the godfather.”

After the Heavenly Demon Sect Leader left, Jian Wuji turned around and bowed to the five Demon Sovereigns to thank them.

“Thank you seniors for your righteous assistance.”

“No need to thank me.” Swordfather said, “I was just dragged here by the Drunken Demon.”

“Senior Swordfather, I’m already grateful that you’re here.” Jian Wuji said.

“You don’t have to comfort me.” Swordfather said, “I know that the Sect Leader, his old man, will not agree to you killing Yelu Han.”

“I know, but I still want to try.” Jian Wuji said, “I believe that there will always be a way.”

“I hope so.” Swordfather said.

“I’m finished, I actually played drunk in front of the sect master!” The Drunken Devil said in chagrin.

“You don’t have to worry.” Jian Wuji said with a smile, “I believe that the Sect Leader, his old man, won’t blame you.”

“I hope so.” Drunken Devil said.

“Wuji, what should we do now?” The Blood Sky Demoness asked.

“Let’s go talk about serving the Poison King first.” Jian Wuji said.

“The Poison King? He’s a notorious weirdo, it won’t be easy to convince him.” The Blood Sky Demoness said.

“I know, but we have to try.” Jian Wuji said, “If we can’t even convince the Poison King, it’s even more unlikely that we’ll be able to convince the Sect Master.”

“Alright, let’s try it then.” The Blood Sky Demoness said.

“Wuji, we’ll go help you too.” The Power Demon and the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon said.

“Many thanks to the two masters.” Jian Wuji said gratefully.

“Let’s go.” The Blood Sky Demoness said.

The five Demon Dignitaries followed Jian Wuji towards the “Thousand Poison Forest” where the Poison King resided.

……

When Jian Wuji and the others arrived outside the “Thousand Poison Forest”, they smelled a pungent poisonous gas.

“What a powerful poisonous gas!” Swordfather couldn’t help but say.

“This ‘Forest of a Thousand Poisons’ is filled with poisonous insects and poisonous plants, so ordinary people can’t even get close.” The Blood Heavenly Demoness said.

“Let’s be careful.” Demon of Power said.

The five devils cautiously walked into the “Thousand Poisons Forest”.

……

“Poison King, are you there?” Jian Wuji shouted.

However, there was no response.

“Poison King, we’re here for you.” The Blood Sky Demoness shouted.

Still no response.

“It seems that the Poison King doesn’t want to see us.” Quan Demon said.

“Let’s wait a little longer.” Jian Wuji said, “I’m sure he’ll come out.”

……

After a while, a grim voice suddenly rang in the ears of the crowd.

“Who are you people? What are you doing here in my ‘Forest of a Thousand Poisons’?”

Before the words fell, a man dressed in black with a bucket hat on his head walked out from the woods.

This person, was none other than the Poison King.

“Senior Poison King, we’ve come to find you because we want to ask you for a favor.” Jian Wuji said.

“A favor? What favor?” Poison King asked coldly.

“We would like to ask you ……” Jian Wuji was about to open his mouth, but he was interrupted by the Poison King.

“I don’t care who you are or what your business is, now, leave my ‘Thousand Poison Forest’ immediately, otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite!” The Poison King said in an icy tone.

“Senior Poison King, we ……”

“Scram!” The Poison King roared.

The faces of the five Demon Dignitaries all became a bit ugly when they saw this.

“Poison King, what do you mean by that?” The Blood Sky Demoness asked angrily.

“My meaning is clear, I don’t want to see you, now, get out of my ‘Thousand Poison Forest’ immediately!” The Poison King said.

“You ……” The Blood Sky Demoness wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Jian Wuji.

“Elder Witch, forget it.” Jian Wuji said, “Let’s go.”

“But ……”

“Let’s go.” Jian Wuji said.

The five devils left the “Thousand Poison Woods” helplessly.

……

“Poison King he …… he even dared to drive us away?!” Swordfather said incredulously.

“He has always been like this, with no one in sight and arrogance.” The Blood Sky Demoness said.

“What now?” Demon of Power asked.

“Let’s think of another way.” Jian Wuji said, “I believe that there will always be a way.”

……

After Jian Wuji and the others returned to the Heavenly Demon Sect, they began to discuss their strategies.

“Poison King, he is aloof and doesn’t like to socialize with people, it really isn’t easy to convince him.” The Blood Heavenly Demoness said.

“I heard that the Poison King he had a dream of collecting all the poisons in the world and compiling them into a ‘Poison Scripture’.” Devil Quan said.
