A luxurious carriage, surrounded by many demons, slowly drove by. The demons around the carriage were all wearing black armor. Without exception, these armors were all exuding the aura of Inferior Grade Magic Tools. There were about 40 people, and each of them was wearing a Inferior Grade Magic Tool. A trace of envy flashed in the eyes of the nearby demons. A magic tool that was hard to find for them had become a standard weapon in the Lucifer Tribe.
Although these demons wearing inferior-grade demonic artifacts were not orthodox demons of the Lucifer Tribe but elites selected from the various tribes, their cultivation bases were very uniform. All of them were mid-stage Human Demons! This showed that the orthodox demon on the carriage definitely had a high status!
The carriage was in the open, but there was a roof on top. However, because of the first rule of the Lucifer Tribe, the demons standing nearby all lowered their heads. Very few of them dared to look up.
A female demon was sitting in a lotus position. She was expressionless as she looked straight ahead. When the carriage passed by Ning Qi and the others, Ning Qi looked up and was slightly taken aback. If he was not wrong, the person sitting in the carriage was Jian Xilai.
As if sensing Ning Qi's gaze, the female demon on the carriage glanced at Ning Qi and was slightly taken aback. Then, she turned her head expressionlessly and continued looking ahead.
Ning Qi frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
Jian Xilai's gaze had fluctuated slightly. There were two possibilities. The first was that she recognized Ning Qi. The second was that she had lost her memory like the Great Sage Xuan Zhen and was only subconsciously moved when she saw an acquaintance.
If it was the second possibility, Ning Qi might have been suppressed by the Lucifer Tribe on the spot by sending a voice transmission without permission.
If it was the first possibility, why didn't Jian Xilai greet him since she had recognized him? Was it because she had no choice or because she had misgivings?
Either way, Ning Qi felt that this was not a good time to acknowledge her. It seemed like he would have to stay in the Lucifer Giant City for a while longer.
The Demons nearby heaved a sigh of relief after the chariots were far away. Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse whispered, "What a powerful aura. I feel like any one of those Demon Race guards could easily crush me."
"They are all in the Middle-stage of Human Demons, and they are wearing the Fallen Armor made by the Lucifer Tribe, a low-grade magic weapon."
Great Sage Arcane Truth said.
"A low-grade magic tool …"
Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse sighed and looked enviously in the direction the team had left.
"Yuan Venerate Beixuan, we have arrived at Lucifer City. What we need to do next is …"
Yuan Venerate Slayer Immortal looked at Ning Qi.
"Let's find a place to stay first."
Ning Qi's gaze landed on the Profound Truth Great Sage.
Xuanzhen Great Sage and Gu Miaoxian looked at each other, and then said to Ning Qi, "Our Bone Sea Tribe has a courtyard in the giant city of Lucifer, but I don't know if there is anyone living in it now. If there is, we have to find another place."
Gu Miaoxian added, "If you don't have the right to live in the Lucifer Tribe, you can stay in the inn for at most 10 days before you have to leave Lucifer City and come in through the teleportation array again. The Bone Ocean Tribe is a subordinate tribe of the Lucifer Tribe, so we don't have this restriction. As long as we stay in our own courtyard, no one will come knocking on our door to drive us away."
"In that case, let's go to your courtyard and take a look first."
Ning Qi said.
Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse muttered to himself. The Lucifer Tribe really knew how to make money. 100 mid-grade Demonic Crystals, yet they could only stay for 10 days before they had to leave and re-enter. That would cost another 100 mid-grade Demonic Crystals! The Demonic Qi in this place wasn't very dense and was very ordinary. Just the amount of Demonic Qi that they earned every year was probably extremely terrifying!
Soon, everyone was led by the Profound Truth Great Sage to an extremely remote place in the city. This place was already very close to the city walls. According to the division between the rich and the poor of the city, this place was considered a slum district. One could imagine how low the status of the Bone Ocean Tribe was in the eyes of the Lucifer Tribe.
In front of a small courtyard, the Profound Truth Great Sage stepped forward and knocked on the door. Soon, the door of the small courtyard opened with a creak. An old man frowned and sized up everyone. His eyes lit up when he saw Gu Miaoxian. "Miss Miaoxian, why are you here?"
He didn't seem to notice the Profound Truth Great Sage at all.
"Uncle Yan, Xuan Zhen and I have come here for some matters. We would like to stay here for some time. Is there anyone else in the tribe here? Are there enough rooms? "
Gu Miaoxian asked with a smile.
Uncle Yan frowned slightly. He glanced at the Profound Truth Great Sage and then at Ning Qi and the others. He realized that their auras were different from those of the orthodox Demon Race and they might be from the mutated Demon Race. Uncle Yan's face darkened as he said to Gu Miaoxian, "Miss Miaoxian, it's better to stay away from these shady people."
"Old man, how can you say that?"
Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse scolded.
Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer glared at him and subconsciously looked around. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that no one had discovered him. The second rule of the Lucifer Tribe was that no one was allowed to make a ruckus. Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse's low voice had already been considered loud.
"Senior Brother, this old man is clearly looking down on us."
Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse glared at the old man as he spoke to Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer.
Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer shook his head. Ning Qi was still around, so it wasn't their turn to make a move.
"Uncle Yan, what is the meaning of this?"
Gu Miaoxian's expression turned cold.
"He he … Nothing much. Miss Miaoxian, everyone, please come in."
Uncle Yan chuckled and shook his head. He then opened the door and let everyone in.
There were a total of 20 rooms in the courtyard. The rooms at the front were obviously unoccupied, but Uncle Yan led everyone to the back. Gu Miaoxian's face fell when she saw how old the rooms were. She felt that the old man before her was a little too much. She was the guardian of the Bone Ocean Tribe, yet he wasn't even giving her any face?
"Uncle Yan, we are all honored guests. Please arrange for us to stay in the rooms at the front."
Gu Miaoxian said faintly.
Uncle Yan chuckled. "Unfortunately, Miss Miaoxian, the rooms at the front have already been reserved. In a few days, Young Master Shaojian and the others will be coming here together. If there aren't enough rooms, you and your 'honored guests' might have to give up their rooms. For now, we are just letting them stay here temporarily."
As soon as he said that, his expression changed. Ning Qi had already walked to the most luxurious room at the front and opened the door.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?"
