After Ye Zhen and the others joined Bai Yi, their journey became smoother. Almost no demon beasts dared to provoke them. Even where they passed, the demon beasts would automatically avoid them, not daring to hurt the people. Although Ye Zhen felt gratified, she was also very clear that Woo Sheng's previous order was completely invalid. Now, only by finding the Demon Flag could they completely protect the people of the human continent.
"Why are you so concerned? Even if you find Ying Yang and the Demon Flag, the people will not be grateful to you." Bai Yi said lazily. They had rushed all the way to the capital city in order to find Ying Yang's Demon Flag, so that the Demonic Beasts would not harm the commoners.
She just couldn't understand why Xiaoyao hadn't changed at all. What she had done more than 10,000 years ago was still the same after reincarnation. What on earth was she after? Did she think that she could get everyone's gratitude by doing this?
Ye Zhen said lightly, "I don't need their gratitude."
"Then what do you want?" Bai Yi asked. "What's in it for you?"
"Must there be benefits to do so?" Ye Zhen glanced at Bai Yi. "Before you appeared, mortals lived a peaceful and peaceful life. This place no longer belongs to you."
Bai Yi chuckled, "This has always been our place. If Wen Tian did not appear, the Human Realm would have long been destroyed by the God Race."
"That was in the past." Ye Zhen said. Now, the human continent was a place of mortals.
"Xiaoyao, you really haven't changed at all. You always like to do these arduous and unrewarding things and never remember the lessons. Just wait and see. Maybe those mortals will not only not be grateful to you, but also blame you."
Ye Zhen heard the meaning behind his words. "Why do you blame me?"
"Because this is the virtue of mortals. They are used to bullying the good and fearing the evil." Bai Yi sneered and said, "You really don't have a good memory. Even if you protect mortals, they won't treat you as a bodhisattva. They'll only treat you as a fool."
"Aren't you trying to be a fool?" Fanfan asked angrily. "Aren't you learning from Xiaoyao to protect mortals?"
Bai Yi curled his lips and said, "I'm not copying her."
"Oh, you're doing this for the High Lord. Unfortunately, no matter how much you learn from Little Yao, it's still useless," Fanfan said.
"Who asked you to talk so much?" Bai Yi glared at Fanfan.
Fan Fan put her arm around Ye Zhen's shoulder and said, "Don't pay attention to that smelly fox demon. Don't believe anything she says."
"Xiaoyao was misunderstood before?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, understanding the meaning of Bai Yi's words. Xiao Yao used to protect mortals, but she did not get their gratitude.
However, the mortals back then were different from the ones now.
"There will always be a time when there is a truth to misunderstandings," Wolsheng said. "What happened ten thousand years ago is different from what happened today."
"Big Brother Woo Sheng is right. Xiao Yao, let's just do our own thing," Fanfan said.
Bai Yi sneered, "Just wait to repeat the same mistake."
"What exactly do you want to say?" Fanfan asked snappily.
"Don't bully Yaoyao!" Guan Jie glared at Bai Yi, his eyes filled with hostility.
Bai Yi's face changed slightly, his eyes staring straight at Guan Jie.
"Guan Jie, come back." Fire Phoenix shouted. She was afraid that Bai Yi would beat Guan Jie to death in a fit of rage.
Although Guan Jie was highly skilled in martial arts, he was nothing in front of Bai Yi.
"Humph!" Bai Yi snorted coldly, turned his face away and said no more.
Wolsheng said to Ye Zhen, "We will arrive at the capital soon."
Ye Zhen lowered her eyes and said nothing. Their arrival in the capital meant that the last underground palace was about to open.
Murong Ke's Purple Qi was also about to disappear. According to Wolsheng, no one else had Purple Qi except Ming Yu.
By the way, Rou 'er said that Yan Xiaoliu also had Purple Qi, but he was now captured by Fan Luo. No one knew what happened to him.
"Will Ying Yang listen to you?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice. She was afraid that after Ying Yang woke up, he would not follow Wolsheng's words and use the Demon Flag to order the beasts in the human world not to harm the common people.
Wolsheng said with a smile, "He will."
That's good! Although Ye Zhen was still not completely relieved, she still held great hope at the thought of getting the Demon Flag.
"Phoenix Tree City is in front of us. Do you want to stop first?" Shu Li asked expressionlessly, but her eyes were fixed on Guan Jie.
They had been on the road for two consecutive days. Although they had food and drink, Guan Jie, as a mortal, should not be able to bear it.
"It looks like a storm is coming. Let's stay in the city for a night." Ye Zhen looked at the dark sky and felt that a heavy rain would soon come. It was better to take a rest first.
"Okay." Wolsheng said.
They entered the city. Because of the strange appearance of the donkeys and horses, they immediately attracted many people's attention. Everyone's face was filled with curiosity and fear.
"… Don't they look like monsters?"
"But they are human beings. How can they ride monsters?"
Rustling sounds came from both sides of the street. Ye Zhen sighed in her heart. Nowadays, mortals seemed to know the existence of monsters. Although they were afraid, they no longer screamed and ran away.
She really didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
Wolsheng turned a deaf ear to the mortals' comments. They went to the door of the inn and let Yao Feng and Ji Shen lead the donkeys and horses to the back.
"It's so lively here." Bai Yi looked at both sides of the street with great interest. "It's much more fun than the previous human world."
"Even if it's lively, it's not something you can play with." Fire Phoenix walked to Bai Yi's side and made a face at him.
Bai Yi wanted to knock Fire Phoenix's head, but he nimbly avoided it. "How dare you bully a spirit beast!"
"You're a spirit beast who hasn't grown up yet?" Bai Yi sneered. "I'm not afraid."
"Oh, have you seen other Fire Phoenixes?" Fire Phoenix sneered.
Bai Yi looked down at him and suddenly exclaimed, "If you didn't mention it, I wouldn't have noticed. You look like Huo Qi."
"Who is Huo Qi?" Fire Phoenix asked.
Wolsheng, who was walking at the front, stopped. Even Fanfan's face was a little strange.
"A former Fire Phoenix." Bai Yi said, his eyes looking at Fire Phoenix. "Your eyes … are like Kong Xianxian's."
Fire Phoenix's face tightened. "Who are Huo Qi and Kong Xianxian?"
"One is a Fire Phoenix, the other is a White Peacock." Bai Yi said, looking at the backs of Woo Sheng and the rest with a smile that was not a smile. "You can't be their child, right?"
"Bai Yi!" Wolsheng looked back at her coldly.
"I'm just speaking casually." Bai Yi waved his hand and walked into the inn with a smile.
Fire Phoenix's face was not very good. Fire Phoenix and White Peacock were both spirit beasts. Although White Peacock was not as noble as Fire Phoenix, it was still a rare spirit beast.
He had the blood of White Peacock …
"Stop, I still have questions to ask!" Fire Phoenix chased after him.
