Before Ye Kong could react, light flashed around him and the five Yuanying Divine Lord teleported in front of him.
A ray of light shot over from afar and landed on Ye Kong's body, making it impossible for him to hide.
"Human cultivator?" The Yuanying were startled. Usually, those who came to cause trouble were beasts who had just gained intelligence. Why were there so many humans recently?
"Foundation Establishment stage? Where did you come from? Don't you know how to write the word 'death'? "one of the Yuanying said angrily.
Ye Kong laughed. There was no other way. He could only continue using the Demon King's Token.
"His Majesty the Demon King ordered me to come out and do things without any mistakes. Otherwise, he can act first and report later."
Ye Kong raised the Demon King's Token high above his head. The slave cultivators were all frightened and hurriedly called Ye Kong into the valley. Soon, Li Yuan arrived. After checking, it really was the Demon King's Token.
Li Yuan didn't dare to be negligent and hurriedly brought Ye Kong to the back. When he saw the Demon King's Token, the fat Devil Cultivator was also shocked. He couldn't imagine how a puny human cultivator could have the Demon King's Token.
Although the fat Devil Cultivator had some doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to disobey. After all, the token was real. This was the highest token of the Holy Devil Tribe. Seeing the token was like seeing the Demon King himself. Who cared who he was, as long as he didn't anger the Demon King.
Thus, the fat Devil Cultivator hurriedly asked the Divine Envoy what he needed. When Ye Kong mentioned the Spirit Concentration Chalcedony, the fat Devil Cultivator hurriedly asked Li Yuan to bring Ye Kong to the warehouse below to choose for himself.
Ye Kong was naturally very happy. He didn't expect things to be so easy. This time, he really had to thank Lu Junrou. Along the way, there wasn't a single battle. It was really too easy. He immediately took the Spirit Concentration Chalcedony and rushed south to Cang Nan to repair Huang Zixuan's soul and extend her life.
But was it really so simple?
Ye Kong followed Li Yuan out of the pointed building and saw tens of thousands of human miners squatting on the ground eating in the huge valley square. Although the food wasn't good, the quantity was still sufficient. Steamed buns and vegetable soup were basically enough to fill their stomachs. After finishing, they could take more as long as they didn't take it away.
"Divine Lord Li Yuan, the human slaves here have been treated the best. I thank you on behalf of all the humans here," Ye Kong said sincerely. Along the way, he had indeed seen many human slaves. Those people were living a very painful life. It could be said that they were struggling on the edge of death. Not to mention having enough to eat, it was already good enough for them to be half full.
Although the miners here were tired, Ye Kong could see that many of them had smiles on their faces, smiles that he hadn't seen in a long time.
Li Yuan smiled and shook his head. "Without freedom, it doesn't matter how much you eat."
Ye Kong nodded without saying a word. Li Yuan was right. However, he was also happy for the miners. They had encountered a decent slave leader. At the same time, Ye Kong had a good impression of Li Yuan.
The warehouse was in the depths of an independent mine in the valley. The two of them came to the entrance of the mine that was heavily guarded. It seemed that Li Yuan had quite the authority. After he spoke to the Demonkin guard, the Demonkin guard immediately made way for them to enter the mine.
However, at that moment, they heard a commotion from the tens of thousands of human miners sitting in the square behind them.
Ye Kong looked back and saw that in the dark sky, a ray of scattered light suddenly appeared. The light dispersed, and in an instant, a huge screen was projected in the sky.
Ye Kong stared blankly. Were the living conditions of these miners too good? Not only did they have enough to eat, but they also had a movie to watch at night?
However, when the "movie" started, his heart was filled with anger. The movie was showing Li Yuan's previous actions. When Li Yuan threw a human ear into his mouth and chewed on it, praising how delicious it was, all the humans present were enraged!
Ye Kong had seen shameless and despicable people before, but he had never seen someone so shameless and despicable to such an extent. At this moment, he really wanted to chop Li Yuan into eight pieces with his sword to vent his anger.
When the "movie" ended, the square was completely silent. A deathly silence! All the human miners looked at Li Yuan with hatred in their eyes. Some of the younger miners even threw the steamed buns in their hands onto the ground and stomped on them to express their anger.
Li Yuan's face was pale, but he still gave an order. "All supervisors, take note of the person who wastes the food. There will be no food for the entire day tomorrow."
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and walked into the long and damp mine.
The mine was deep and far. There were many moonlight stones embedded on both sides. It was very quiet inside. Li Yuan walked in front with large strides while Ye Kong followed behind him. Ye Kong looked at the seemingly elegant middle-aged man with a pair of angry and disdainful eyes. He was only a Soul Formation Stage cultivator.
Ye Kong finally couldn't hold back his anger and asked, "Are you going to stop the miners' meals in exchange for another piece of human meat in front of your master?"
Li Yuan's footsteps paused for a moment before he continued walking. He said calmly, "Fellow cultivator, you're not from here, so you don't understand."
"The situation here is very complicated. I don't understand … but I do understand the most basic principle of a human!"
"Humanity's rule?" Li Yuan sneered. "The rule here is to survive! Only by living will there be hope! Death will give you nothing! "
"Some people are already dead when they're alive! Or perhaps, they're no longer human. "Ye Kong couldn't accept Li Yuan's logic. Only by living will there be hope? What about the people you've eaten? You're acting like a coward. If it were me, I would rather die than eat human meat! I'd rather die than bend!
Li Yuan didn't want to talk to this person, but he was already unhappy. Now that he was being mocked by Ye Kong over and over again, he was starting to get angry. He stopped and turned around. "Little Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, what do you know? It's because I'm here that they can eat their fill every day. That's why they can survive, reproduce, and have fewer people die! "
"Traitor's theory." Ye Kong sneered and said coldly, "I've only heard of people doing bad things in the name of justice. I've never heard of people doing good things in the name of evil."
"Hehe, you're right, justice … evil …" Li Yuan laughed self-deprecatingly. He didn't continue speaking, but turned around and walked deeper into the tunnel.
As soon as Ye Kong and the others walked into the mine, they saw a sudden gust of wind in the sky above the valley. Then, they saw seven or eight winged demons flying above the valley. A loud voice rang out, "The Holy Devil Udumbara Tribe's King's Guards have arrived. Where is the leader of the Dark Abyss Valley's Holy Clan?"
Ordinary demons didn't have wings. Only those who had lived for tens of thousands of years would grow wings. Only Demon Kings and Elders who had inherited the Dharma Eye from the ancient times could grow horns.
Seeing this pair of winged demons, the guards hurriedly went up to greet them. The fat demon also hurriedly ran out to greet them.
The Demon King's Guards had two missions. One was to bring the fat demon back for questioning, and the other was to execute Ye Kong.
However, in order to obtain the fat demon's cooperation and capture Ye Kong first, they didn't mention the first mission. Instead, they asked, "Is the human cultivator who used the Demon King's token here?"
