"What's so good about it? Can you let this old man have a look?" While Shi Shanshan was examining the jade slip with her divine senses, an abrupt voice suddenly rang out.
The owner of the voice had originally thought that his sudden voice would definitely make these juniors jump in fright. But long after he had spoken, they didn't even show the slightest bit of surprise, as if they had already known that he would be following them.
"It's just a tattered jade slip. Let's talk after we've finished reading it." Yang Chen didn't even turn his head and said a sentence. He didn't take the guy behind him seriously at all.
The old devil who had spoken could be considered a quick-witted person. He hadn't been one of the first few to come in, but had been in the middle, and had probably set off half a day earlier than Yang Chen and the others.
After coming in, the old man had been mulling it over. Because they had come in almost two and a half days later, they wouldn't be able to catch up with the old guys who had come in the beginning. But he wasn't willing to come out empty-handed. After thinking it over, he felt that Yang Chen and the others were still a little mysterious, and that they might be able to gain something.
Thus, the old devil stood guard near the door and waited for Yang Chen and the others to come in. As the old devil had expected, as soon as Yang Chen and the others came in, they searched in a different direction from the others. The old devil was pleasantly surprised, and in the end, he decided to follow Yang Chen and the others quietly.
However, Yang Chen's flying shuttle was too fast for the old devil to catch up. But he wasn't afraid of losing them, because the old devil had a magical cloud ferret pet which could track a person's scent from thousands of li away. Before Yang Chen and the others had come in, the old devil had already made the cloud ferret remember Yang Chen and the others' scents. Thus, no matter how fast Yang Chen and the others were, the old devil still lagged far behind.
The reason why Yang Chen wanted to sneak around those old guys wasn't because he was afraid of trouble, but because he wanted to buy time and avoid being disturbed. After all, there were so many destinations to choose from now, and it would be troublesome if others found out which one he had chosen, so he didn't start a fight along the way.
After coming over to search, Yang Chen and Li Cheng soon found the old guy who had followed them secretly. But the old devil was alone, and no one present would care, so they didn't expose him and just minded their own business as they searched.
Now that the old devil had jumped out on his own, no one paid much attention to him. What everyone was concerned about was what was recorded on the broken jade slip that Shi Shanshan had found.
"Brat, don't be so shameless!" Hearing Yang Chen's nonchalant words of asking him to wait, the old man was instantly enraged. When did the dignified dacheng stage demonic cultivator suffer such anger from the younger generation? He immediately flared up.
"Do you want to die?" Li Cheng was even angrier. He turned his head and glared at the old man.
In Li Cheng's hands, there was a magic treasure that could strike like the wind. An expert who was stronger than the old man was also turned into dust under one strike. This was something he had seen with his own eyes. Even if there was only one strike left, it wasn't something the old man could withstand. He was the only one here, so it was better not to suffer a loss.
Looking at the old devil who had suddenly become well-behaved and well-behaved, Sun Qingxue couldn't help laughing out loud next to him.
Sun Qingxue's laughter instantly made the old devil blush, but he didn't dare say anything out of fear of Li Cheng next to him. He could only glare fiercely at Sun Qingxue with hatred in his eyes, then turn his head away and say nothing more.
Shi Shanshan had already quickly finished reading the records on the jade slip, and then gave it to Yang Chen with a calm expression. Yang Chen took it and scanned it with his divine sense. There wasn't much content, and it didn't take long for Yang Chen to understand.
After that, Yang Chen gave the jade slip to Li Cheng, who in turn gave it to Sun Qingxue. After a circle in the hands of Gao Yue and Gongsun Ling, the jade slip finally returned to Yang Chen's hands.
"Let's see what's inside." After getting the jade slip, Yang Chen had no intention of showing it to the old devil at all, and directly put it away in his Qiankun Bag.
The old devil, who was standing dumbly on the side, was fuming with rage at this scene. From the looks of it, these young people didn't take him seriously at all and acted as if they hadn't seen him. What could be more infuriating than such blatant neglect? He almost couldn't help but explode, but in the end, he was intimidated by Li Cheng and didn't dare act rashly.
What was recorded on the tattered jade slip wasn't any precious technique or elixir recipe, but a simple introduction to the Mental Demon Sect. How the Mental Demon Sect had been formed, how many years it had been here, how their ancestors had relied on a wisp of demonic qi to establish the sect, and so on.
If this jade slip had been given to any of the old devils, it was likely that they would have thrown it away straightaway. But before the old devil had seen it, he had already thought that it was some incredible record, and his heart itched uncontrollably, he had done almost everything he could to take a look at its contents.
While the others searched for more clues in the ruins, Yang Chen stood on the side in a daze. This jade slip recorded everything in detail, especially how the ancestor of the Mental Demon Sect had used a wisp of demonic qi to establish the Dao, which was especially vivid. There was even a record of when the demonic qi had appeared.
According to this record, the demonic qi hadn't been born on the Demon Continent, but had suddenly appeared one day. According to the Mental Demon Sect ancestor's conjecture, it was possible that some point on the Demon Continent had suddenly connected with another world, which was why the demonic qi had seeped out.
At first, the demonic qi hadn't been strong, and there had only been faint wisps. The Mental Demon Sect ancestor had been attacked by the demonic qi, and in the process of fighting it, he had discovered the benefits of tempering the inner demon with the demonic qi. Thus, he had specially spent several hundred years studying it before he had mastered the cultivation method of the inner demon, and founded the Mental Demon Sect.
That was all that was recorded in this tattered jade slip. While Yang Chen was pondering, Gong Sunling cheered as she found another jade slip, which was also tattered.
Next to her, the old devil was delighted, but then he immediately sensed a gaze that made him feel pressured. He glanced at Li Cheng, who was staring at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. The old devil felt a chill in his heart, and he obediently shrunk his neck, not daring to move.
"It's still a story, so boring," Gong Sunling mumbled after scanning it once, then handed the jade slip to Yang Chen.
"This is the real treasure!" Yang Chen took it and scanned it with his divine sense, then his smile grew wider as he said casually.
