In front of the stall, there was a one-meter-long wooden table covered with a layer of red cloth. Jade slips of different colors were placed on it.
These jade slips were all Deity Arts.
At that moment, there was a black-clothed youth with his side facing the Fiend Ancestor and company. He looked unremarkable as he stood in front of the stall and sized up the jade slips on the table.
This black-clothed youth was the one who sent the message to Ryūko and Jiang Yunshuang!
"Little brother, look around. If you see anything you like, this old man will give you a 20% discount."
The stall owner was also a skinny old man. He looked at the black-clothed youth and bared his teeth.
"Is that so?"
The black-clothed youth smiled disapprovingly. These Deity Arts were not even considered trash in the Divine Kingdom. He actually had the nerve to put them up for sale.
"Of course."
"Go and ask around. Who in Thousand Mountain City doesn't know that I have always been honest when doing business."
The old man patted his chest and made a solemn vow.
But when the stall owners heard the old man's words, they couldn't help but roll their eyes.
The black-clothed youth smiled faintly.
While observing the Demon Ancestor and the others, he pretended to bargain with the old man.
"Your disguise is quite good."
Dong Zhengyang snickered.
"Since you already knew, why didn't you tell us?"
Mu Qing frowned.
"I just want to see how alert you are!"
"All these years in the Black Tortoise Realm, I was worried that your alertness would deteriorate."
Dong Zhengyang thought.
The Demon Ancestor and the others couldn't help but roll their eyes.
"But then again, who would follow us?"
Mu Qing frowned.
Mu Tianyang pondered for a while and said, "The Demon Ancestor's name has spread throughout the Sky Cloud Realm. Ordinary people wouldn't dare to follow us."
"You mean, this person is from the three major races?"
Mu Qing asked.
"No."
"People from the three major races, or even the entire Sky Cloud Realm, have no need to follow us."
"Because now, we are not enemies with them."
Mu Tianyang's eyes flashed. He glanced at the Demon Ancestor and said meaningfully, "This person should be coming for you."
"Not necessarily."
The Fiend Ancestor shook his head.
"Save it."
"As expected, this person must be from the Divine Kingdom."
"The people of the Divine Kingdom don't know us at all, so the only person they're following is you. In other words, you've already attracted the attention of Ryūko and Jiang Yunshuang."
Mu Tianyang smiled mockingly.
The Fiend Ancestor sighed helplessly. If he had known, he would have changed his appearance.
"Then what are they trying to do?"
Mu Qing was doubtful.
"Two possibilities."
"The first one took a fancy to the Devil Ancestor's strength and wanted to bribe him."
"The second possibility …"
Mu Tianyang inadvertently glanced at the black-clothed youth. He looked at Mu Qing and transmitted his voice, "Kill the Demon Ancestor."
Mu Qing was shocked.
"We have no contact with the Divine Kingdom at all. There are only two possibilities."
"But in comparison, I'm leaning towards the latter."
Dong Zhengyang analyzed.
"What do you mean?"
Mu Qing was puzzled.
Dong Zhengyang smiled and said, "If the Divine Kingdom is here to bribe the Demon Ancestor, they don't have to follow us stealthily. They can just show up and talk to us directly."
Hearing this.
Mu Qing secretly smiled and said, "Then let's part ways with the Demon Ancestor now, lest we get hurt accidentally."
"Sorry, it's too late."
"You've been with me all this time. How can the other party not notice you?"
The Demon Ancestor looked at the three of them gloatingly.
"You're still gloating?"
Mu Tianyang's face darkened and he said angrily, "Hurry up and think of a way to deal with this."
"If we didn't find out that he was following us, it would naturally be difficult to deal with."
"But now, we've found out."
"Since we've found out, isn't it easy to get rid of him?"
The Demon Ancestor smiled confidently, not taking it to heart at all.
Hearing this.
Dong Zhengyang and Mu Tianyang looked at each other with a smile at the corner of their mouths.
In the blink of an eye!
At this moment!
A waiter in the Tianyue Restaurant discovered the Demon Ancestor and recognized him at a glance. At first, he thought he was seeing things.
Why would such an unparalleled big shot come to a small city like Qianshan City?
But when he rubbed his eyes hard and looked at the Demon Ancestor again, he realized that it was really him.
He immediately ran out excitedly and bowed. "I'm Li Si. Greetings, Lord Demon Ancestor."
The Demon Ancestor was stunned and looked at Li Si suspiciously.
"I'm a waiter in the Tianyue Restaurant. I've long heard of your deeds. I didn't expect to see you with my own eyes today. I'm really lucky."
Li Si was still a young man. Looking at the Demon Ancestor who defeated hundreds of thousands of Divine Kingdom's geniuses by himself, his face was full of admiration.
The Demon Ancestor laughed and waved his hand. "I'm not a big shot. You don't have to be so polite."
"You're too good at joking."
"If you're not a big shot, then who is?"
Li Si shook his head and smiled. He looked at the four of them and asked, "Are the four of you going to eat?"
"Yes, we're going to sit."
The Demon Ancestor nodded.
"Then, please come in!"
Li Si quickly retreated to the side.
The Demon Ancestor pondered for a moment and smiled. "I suddenly remembered that I have something to take care of. I'll come back another day!"
If the people from the Divine Kingdom were really here to kill him, then he might implicate the Tianyue Restaurant if he openly entered it now.
Hearing this, a trace of disappointment appeared on Li Si's face. However, he didn't dare to force the Demon Ancestor to stay. He smiled obsequiously and said, "Alright. If you come to Qianshan City again in the future, you must come to the Tianyue Restaurant."
"Alright."
The Demon Ancestor nodded and looked at Mu Tianyang and the other two. He then looked at Li Si and said, "However, I hope you can help me with something."
"What is it?"
Li Si asked, overwhelmed by the favor.
The Demon Ancestor turned sideways and used his body as a hand to point at the black-clothed youth.
Li Si looked over.
"Don't look at me so openly."
The Demon Ancestor was immediately on alert.
Li Si was shocked and immediately retracted his gaze. He glanced at the black-clothed youth from the corner of his eyes.
"This person has some ill intentions towards me. Later, you …"
The Demon Ancestor secretly instructed.
"Leave it to me."
After Li Si heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said.
"Thank you."
The Demon Ancestor said gratefully and gave a look to Mu Tianyang and the other two. Then, the four of them turned around and left as if nothing had happened.
"Three lackeys, and their auras aren't weak. As expected of a big shot."
Just as the four of them turned around, Li Si muttered something that almost made Mu Qing and Mu Tianyang go berserk. He actually said that they were the Demon Ancestor's lackeys?
What eyesight?
Have you ever seen lackeys with such outstanding temperaments?
…
At the same time.
When the black-clothed youth saw the four of them leave, he immediately put down the jade slip in his hand and chased after them.
"Little brother, what's the meaning of this?"
"After looking at it for so long, you actually don't want it. Aren't you wasting my time?"
"No, you have to buy a jade slip today. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving."
The old stall owner reacted quickly and grabbed the black-clothed youth.
"I don't need it."
The black-clothed youth shook off the old man forcefully.
"If you don't need it, what are you looking at here for? Are you messing with this old man? "
The old man grabbed the black-clothed youth again and refused to let go no matter what.
Seeing that the Demon Ancestor and the other three were about to disappear at the end of the street, the black-clothed youth was extremely anxious. He took out a large pile of soul stones and threw them on the ground. Then, he shook off the old man and sped away like lightning.
…
At the entrance of Tianyue Restaurant.
Li Si had been shouting outside to solicit customers and had been paying attention to the black-clothed youth.
When he saw the black-clothed youth running over, a trace of amusement appeared in his eyes. He secretly took out a jade bottle and when the black-clothed youth ran in front of him, he bumped into him.
The black-clothed youth was caught off guard and immediately staggered, falling flat on his face.
Li Si also let out a miserable cry as he pressed down on the black-clothed youth's back. The jade bottle in his hand shattered on the spot.
"Scram!"
The black-clothed youth only had eyes for the Demon Ancestor and the other three as he immediately roared.
Li Si got up.
The black-clothed youth stood up as well and glared at Li Si. He was about to continue chasing after the Demon Ancestor and the other three.
But suddenly.
Li Si grabbed the black-clothed youth and said angrily, "You want to leave after bumping into someone?"
"I bumped into someone?"
The black-clothed youth was stunned. He was so angry that he laughed. This person clearly didn't have eyes and ran over to bump into him, but in the end, he was the one who made the accusation.
But now.
He really wasn't in the mood to talk nonsense with Li Si. He threw down a pile of soul stones and was about to leave.
Because now, the Demon Ancestor and the other three had already turned into another street and disappeared. If he didn't follow them, he would definitely lose them.
"You're not allowed to leave."
Li Si grabbed the black-clothed youth tightly and shouted at the top of his voice, "Everyone, come and judge. This person bumped into me and even broke my treasure bottle. But now, he doesn't even have a word of apology!"
After he shouted, the people on the street immediately surrounded him.
"Are you done yet?"
"Didn't I already give you the soul stones as compensation?"
The black-clothed youth said angrily. It could be said that he was burning with anxiety.
"My jade bottle is a priceless treasure. You want to use these few soul stones to send me away? Dream on! "
Li Si roared.
"Uh!"
"Li Si, what treasure can you have?"
"Don't be blackmailing us!"
"You have to know that you're now a waiter of Tianyue Restaurant. If you blackmail us here, it will affect Tianyue Restaurant's reputation."
The onlookers were customers who heard the commotion in the restaurant and ran out to watch the show. There were also the peddlers on the surrounding streets.
They often interacted with Li Si, so they naturally knew about Li Si's family background.
"I'm blackmailing you?"
"Are you all blind?"
"Can't you see that my treasure bottle is in such a state?"
Li Si pointed at the fragments on the ground.
Everyone had long seen the fragments. Judging from the luster, it was simply an ordinary jade bottle. Priceless treasure? How dare he say that.
At this moment.
Four middle-aged men walked over, squeezed through the crowd and came to Li Si's side.
These four people were all potbellied and looked like nouveau riche at first glance. However, there was a glimmer in their eyes.
They were none other than the Demon Ancestor and the other three who had returned!
Originally.
With Li Si helping to hold back the black-clothed youth, they wanted to leave and not cause trouble.
But thinking back!
Even the Divine Kingdom wanted to harm them. Why should they be polite?
If they did not teach these people a lesson, they would think that they were easy to bully.
"Everyone, be quiet."
"I'm a jade merchant. I can tell the benefits of jade at a glance. Let me take a look."
Mu Qing walked to the fragments on the ground with her potbelly. She casually picked up a fragment and looked at it carefully.
The black-clothed youth was extremely anxious. His gaze would occasionally look at the end of the street. Little did he know that the person he was looking for was standing in front of him at this moment.
