Chapter 0216 – Are You Afraid of Ultimate Soma – Absolute Returns

I was expecting him to laugh at me, but I didn’t expect him to answer:

“Aren’t you afraid of him? The mere sight of his mask gives me chills.”

This is really out of my expectation that the Poison King would be afraid of the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon.

“By now, Lord Laughing Demon should be fearing your poison sac as well.”

“Impossible, he’s someone who isn’t even afraid of death.”

Unexpectedly, the Poison King had such a high opinion of the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon.

“What about you?”

“I’m afraid of death, I’m afraid of death to death, that’s why I’m hiding in the Forest of a Thousand Poisons, I don’t dare to come out.”

Are you afraid to die or are you afraid to kill?

I wanted to ask him that question, but eventually held back and I changed it.

“What are your thoughts on this trip?”

The Poison King’s gaze turned to the window, watching the scenery as it flew by.

“Sense? When I was younger, I used to be in the jungle a lot.”

“You’re breaking into the world too?”

“How else do you think I got my position as the Poison King? When I was young, I traveled all over the Central Plains in search of poisons.”

What made him what he is?

I didn’t ask, I was sure that one day we would be friends without words, and when that day came, I would confess my secret to him.

Just then, the carriage suddenly stopped and the horses let out a neigh.

If it was an ordinary person, they would have been thrown out long ago, but Demon Zuns were Demon Zuns after all, and they sat steadily in their seats, not moving at all.

Xu Dalong’s voice came from outside the car, “Sorry! A deer came out of nowhere on the side of the road and scared the horse.”

“Now that we’ve stopped, let’s rest for a while, the horses need it too.”

I took the two Demon Lords out of the carriage.

Xu Dalong hurriedly apologized to the two Demon Elders.

What he was most afraid of, was the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon, what if the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon was thrown to the front of the carriage just now, and smashed the mask? Thinking of this, Xu Dalong’s face turned even paler.

To lighten the mood, I formally introduced Xu Dalong to the Poison King.

“He is the personal disciple of Lord Witch and is learning Lord Witch’s unique martial arts.”

The Extremely Evil Laughing Demon seemed to have known about this and was not surprised, while the Poison King’s mouth opened wide in surprise.

“A disciple of the Witch?”

He didn’t expect that this skinny young man would be the future Blood Heavenly Demoness.

I continued, “He’s also my right hand man.”

The Poison King looked at me in surprise, his eyes seeming to say, “He can actually be your right hand man?” I said firmly, “I am much more at ease with him.”

The Poison King’s gaze once again landed on Xu Dalong, and Xu Dalong immediately felt a great deal of pressure.

“You flatter me.”

Xu Dalong hurriedly lowered his head, while at the same time, his voice resounded in my mind, “You mustn’t say any more! Please, don’t let me make a spectacle of myself in front of Lord Demon Lord! Just pretend that I don’t exist!”

Xu Da Long raised his head and I smiled, “He was the winner of the Little Dragon Battle, where the younger generation of experts of the righteous path gathered.”

Xu DaLong warned me with his eyes to stop, but I decided to add more fuel to the fire.

“In the future, you will meet again at the Demon Honor Assembly.”

Xu Dalong completely gave up struggling, he looked up to the sky and sighed, a lifeless expression on his face. Alright, enough jokes, it’s time to go.

“Let’s go.”

We rejoined the wagon.

Xu Dalong, who was originally driving the carriage with great excitement, now became cautious, afraid of any further accidents.

I said loudly to Xu Dalong, “If you continue to be so slow, you’ll switch places with me and you’ll come and stay in the carriage.”

As soon as the words fell, the carriage sped away.

The carriage sped along.

In order not to leave any traces, we tried to avoid towns and chose to camp out in the wild. When we ran out of the food and wine we brought with us, I personally went hunting and then cooked for the two Demon Elders.

The Poison King ate my cooking for the first time and raved about how versatile I was.

We just winded our way up and finally arrived at the place where Ikuo Ikuo, the golden pig, was located.

High Moon and Sect Leader Windy Sky are already waiting for us at the inn.

When the Poison King saw that Gao Yue and Sect Leader Windy Sky were actually together, he used Voice Transmission to ask me, “Why is Sect Leader Windy Sky here?”

“He is very close to my warlord.”

“So it’s because of you that Sect Leader Windsky left the Windsky Sect.”

“Why do you always use voice transmission? Why don’t you just ask it out in a big way, Sect Leader Feng Tian, what are you doing here? What is there to be afraid of for a Poison King?”

“Who said I was scared? I’m just embarrassed.”

“How do you not feel embarrassed when you learn to bark in front of so many people? How come you don’t feel embarrassed when you talk so eloquently in front of the Bishop?”

“That’s because I had to, I don’t like dealing with these people.”

I could feel that the relationship between the Poison King and I was gradually drawing closer, and he had begun to open up to me.

I arranged for the two Demon Dignitaries to rest in their respective rooms, and then found High Moon alone.

“You’re so amazing that you were able to convince even the Poison King.”

“They will help me not because of loyalty, but because of curiosity and good sense.”

“I think good feelings are more powerful than loyalty.”

“I hope so.”

I know that the relationship between me and the Devils has just begun.

It is not easy to befriend someone, but what is even harder is to sustain the relationship. The novelty and curiosity will always wear off, replaced by boredom and disappointment. There is still a long way to go between me and the Demons.

“This mission, more than any other, is a cautious one.”

Takayuki knew the importance of this mission.

“With the strength of you and the two Demon Sovereigns, it’s not difficult to get rid of Yelu Han’s four guardians. The difficult part is how to not leave any traces related to our sect, and at the same time, avoid alerting the snakes and making Yelu Han aware of it.”

It seems that Takayuki has thought this through.

“Just stick to your plan.”

I am not perfunctory, but I really intend to follow his plan. The best way to cultivate a good warlord is to let him go and then help him succeed. The stronger the warlord’s self-confidence is, the more perfect his plan will be. I just need to improvise at critical moments.

“Our first target, Ikuo, is refining a new batch of Divine Immortal Grass, and, he has found a new buyer.”

Therefore, it is said that if you don’t get rid of the roots of the grass, it will grow again in the spring breeze. Only by getting rid of Chi Sheng as the source could the circulation of the Divine Immortal Grass be completely eradicated.

A confident smile appeared on Takayuki’s face.

“As the old saying goes, ‘He who seeks the deer does not see the mountain,’ and his greed will be his catalyst.”

I guessed his plan and said with a smile, “Looks like we’re going to show this fairy-loving guy what it means to be an ‘evil fairy’.”
