However, just like how the Giant Demon Clan's strong bodies matched their dull brains, the Heavenly Demon Clan's fatal flaw was their low reproduction rate despite their extraordinary talents. Their numbers were very few.
Because of this, all members of the Heavenly Demon Clan had a very high status in the Demon Clan. This was also why the yin demon wanted to eat Lu Xuan, the "Heavenly Demon", and why Mo Tai would bow at first notice when he saw Lu Xuan.
Of course, for Lu Xuan, this wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that the members of the Heavenly Demon Clan looked extremely similar to humans. Although there were some slight differences, it wasn't enough to distinguish humans from the Heavenly Demon Clan, apart from the most obvious blood color.
Therefore, Lu Xuan openly pretended to be a member of the Heavenly Demon Clan. As long as he didn't get injured or bleed, he definitely wouldn't raise any suspicions. This was because no one would think that a human would suddenly appear on the Demon Sealed Continent where only the Demon Clan existed.
However, Lu Xuan was still suspected. The one who suspected him was the slightly smaller demon next to Mo Tai. This demon had a pair of wings on its back. If Lu Xuan's guess was correct, he should be a member of the Winged Demon Clan.
The Winged Demon Clan was considered a high level Demon Clan. Their intelligence naturally wasn't something a simple-minded Giant Demon like Mo Tai could compare to. The reason he was suspicious of Lu Xuan wasn't because of anything else, but because Lu Xuan was too unfamiliar.
It had to be known that the Demon Sealed Continent wasn't that big, and there were very few Heavenly Demons. He had seen almost all the Heavenly Demons, but he didn't have an impression of someone like Lu Xuan.
However, because of the Heavenly Demon Clan's long accumulated prestige, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. Although he was a bit suspicious, he still half-knelt and bowed, "Winged Demon Clan's Yi Tianyuan greets Lord Heavenly Demon Clan. However … I've seen all the lords of the Demon Sealed Continent, but I've never seen you. May I know which clan you're from? "
When these words came out, Lu Xuan's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. He had actually missed this part. As the saying went, a lie needed countless lies to make up for it. Lu Xuan had only just taken the first step and the loophole had already been discovered.
Lu Xuan still had a smile on his face as he looked at Yi Tianyuan. However, his heart was not as calm as his appearance. At that moment, he was rapidly thinking of a countermeasure. If he could not give Yi Tianyuan a satisfactory answer, then the outcome would be unpredictable.
Randomly making up an identity? Definitely not. Yi Tianyuan had just said that he had seen all the Heavenly Demon Clan members of the Demon Sealing Continent. He definitely had enough understanding of the various clans of the Heavenly Demon Clan. If he randomly made up an identity, he would be exposed in an instant.
Not getting a reply from Lu Xuan for a long time, the doubts in Yi Tianyuan's heart grew deeper and deeper. He could not help but raise his head to look at Lu Xuan. His half-kneeling body also stood up by itself.
Facing Yi Tianyuan's doubtful gaze, Lu Xuan's heart tightened. However, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind and the smile on his face completely blossomed, "It's normal that you haven't seen me before, because … I'm from the Heaven Region."
Yi Tianyuan's gaze was slightly startled. Then, he revealed a hint of fanaticism. He couldn't help but gulp, "You, you're saying that you came down from the Heaven Region?"
"That's right. Back then, your ancestors carried a heavy responsibility and came to this lower realm. Although they failed in the end, causing you all to be trapped here, we've never given up on you." Lu Xuan's gentle smile did not diminish. He seemed to be getting more and more into his identity.
Receiving Lu Xuan's confirmation, Yi Tianyuan was so moved that tears almost came out. He said in a trembling voice, "The lords of the clan really didn't forget us. Our ancestors have been trapped here for tens of thousands of years, but we've always wanted to return to the Heaven Region. This time, you're definitely here to bring us back to the Heaven Region, right? "
"That's right. The purpose of my coming this time is to bring your branch back to the Heaven Region." Lu Xuan braced himself and said. He didn't have the ability to go to the Heaven Region now. However, no matter what, he had to first deceive them and take one step at a time.
"Haha, as expected! That's great! Hey, big guy, Lord is going to bring us back to the Heaven Region soon! "Yi Tianyuan excitedly patted Giant Demon Mo Tai beside him and said.
"Hehe, that's great." Mo Tai smiled and rubbed his head, "I've heard them say before that the Heaven Region is very big. I like big places."
"That's right. The Heaven Region is the true home of our demon race! Over there, we're practically half the masters! " Yi Tianyuan said proudly. He knew these things from the records of his ancestors, but he had never doubted them.
Then, he remembered that Lu Xuan was still at the side. He quickly turned to look at Lu Xuan and said, "Lord, I'll bring you to see our commander. If he knows that you've come, he'll definitely be very happy!"
Commander, huh? Lu Xuan was very hesitant. He was too weak now, and he really didn't want to come into contact with too many demons. However, since he had already said it like this, it would be too abnormal if he didn't go see the commander of the demon race.
"If that's the case, that's fine. I also want to see your commander. Then, you lead the way." Lu Xuan took a deep breath. He felt that he was playing more and more.
Yi Tianyuan hurriedly led the way for Lu Xuan. However, after two steps, he turned around and said doubtfully, "Lord, your strength … why does it seem a little off? It seems like you only have the strength of a Three-star Demon Emperor? "
Speaking up to this point, he quickly added, "I'm absolutely not doubting your strength. I'm just curious in my heart. If it's inconvenient, you don't have to say it."
Lu Xuan heard this and laughed in his heart. It was good to have a high status. Yi Tianyuan was so careful when asking a question, afraid of offending him. However, he didn't want to keep hiding it. When he met the commander of the demon race, he would have to explain it sooner or later.
"Cough, cough." Lu Xuan coughed lightly and said, "I believe you all know the situation of the Sky Sword Continent. In order to break through the barrier of the human race, I had to lower my strength. After much difficulty, I finally found your place of residence. Only then did I realize that there was a layer of barrier on your Demon Sealing Continent. Therefore, I sacrificed my cultivation again to obtain enough strength to pass through this barrier and come here. "
Hearing this, Yi Tianyuan was even more touched. He said repeatedly, "Lord, you are really too great. All of us will remember your kindness! Oh right, our commander is from the Ling Family of the demon race in the Heaven Region. If he can return to the Heaven Region, he will definitely thank you properly. "
Ling Family of the Heaven Region? Lu Xuan stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin. It seemed like there were many families in the demon race. However, this was normal. Where there were benefits, there would be disputes. This was definitely not the characteristic of the human race.
"These are all small matters. However, when I just passed through the barrier, I encountered a Yin Demon. He took advantage of my weakness and ambushed me, causing me to suffer some minor injuries. I'm afraid I won't be able to bring you all back to the Heaven Region in a short period of time." Lu Xuan took the opportunity to explain his injuries. At the same time, he delayed the time of bringing them back to the Heaven Region. He didn't want to expose himself too quickly.
Hearing that the important matter of returning to the Heaven Region was almost ruined by a Yin Demon, Yi Tianyuan couldn't help but be furious. The wings on his back unfolded uncontrollably. He said angrily, "Damn Yin Demon Clan! They are simply the scum of the demon race. In my opinion, we should have exterminated the Yin Demon Clan long ago! However, don't worry, Lord Commander will definitely help you recover your strength as soon as possible. If you need anything, just say the word. "
