Journey to the West: Starting from Changing Sun Wukong's fate-Chapter 1147 - 761: Swaying the Demon Country’s Envoy
The Linzhou City Lord naturally had some understanding of the situation regarding the Great Demon, and also knew that Zheng Xiuyuan was an extremely special existence.
Hence, he dared not have too deep a connection with Ten Thousand Demons Valley; even if anomalies occurred, they would not easily investigate.
After all, Ten Thousand Demons Valley is a very special place, and everything about it was surely highly related to the Great Demon Zheng Xiuyuan.
It is said that back then, the Great Demon contributed something extremely special to the Demon Country, which made Ten Thousand Demons Valley become a special jurisdiction.
Even if they acted evilly on ordinary days, there would not be much interference, as if turning a blind eye.
The Linzhou City Lord was somewhat puzzled at this moment: "Could there be a problem in Ten Thousand Demons Valley?"
The messenger nodded: "Indeed, there is a problem. Do you know what has happened recently?"
The Linzhou City Lord paused for a moment before saying: "If there were anything unusual, it would be from Ten Thousand Demons Valley. However, before this, the Fifth Elder inside Ten Thousand Demons Valley went to trouble a second-rate sect, but in the end, he died."
"Oh? A second-rate sect?"
The messenger said somewhat strangely: "In Linzhou, there are definitely no experts at the True Demon Realm in any second-rate sect. How could those in Ten Thousand Demons Valley, all of whom are True Demon Realm experts, be taken down by a second-rate sect?"
In fact, within the Linzhou City Lord’s Mansion, they were aware of these happenings. Although not in detail, they generally understood.
Thus, the Linzhou City Lord explained: "I don’t really know either. This sect is called the Eastern Peak Sect. Its founder came from a great sect in Xing State. Over a dozen years ago, its sect master died, but recently there’s been a rejuvenation phenomenon. I estimate it’s the great sect from Xing State coming to aid."
Regarding such a second-rate sect, he wouldn’t care much about the life and death between sects, as it doesn’t concern him greatly.
As long as it doesn’t affect the peace and harmony within Linzhou, he absolutely would not interfere.
"Let’s put this matter aside for now. Do you know what’s going on with the anomaly in Ten Thousand Demons Valley?"
The messenger did not inquire much about this matter but returned to the main topic.
The Linzhou City Lord shook his head blankly: "We daren’t rashly go there. Ten Thousand Demons Valley is extremely special, even though such a thing happened..."
The Linzhou City Lord did not continue speaking, and the messenger certainly understood the impropriety involved.
"Never mind, since it is so, I’ll personally go to investigate it."
"Farewell to the Senior Envoy!"
After the messenger left, the Linzhou City Lord finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He initially thought they were here to cause trouble for him, but it turned out to be just an investigation into Ten Thousand Demons Valley.
"What exactly happened in Ten Thousand Demons Valley that even stirred the Demon Country? Could the anomaly that day not be simple?"
When Wang Yang used his divine skills to open a passage back then, the entire Linzhou naturally sensed it too.
The Linzhou City Lord, of course, was among them, but he did not go to investigate, all because of the special nature of Ten Thousand Demons Valley.
He initially thought it was the cultivation success of the Great Demon of Ten Thousand Demons Valley that caused such an anomaly.
But now that even the Demon Country has sent a messenger, it is clear that this matter is not as simple as he thought.
This messenger, in the blink of an eye, left Linzhou City and headed toward Ten Thousand Demons Valley.
When he traveled along the road to Ten Thousand Demons Valley, he realized something different. There wasn’t the slightest aura of an expert here.
Even if concealed, with his Demon Monarch’s cultivation level, he should be able to sense it.
He couldn’t help but frown: "Truly odd, could something be wrong with Ten Thousand Demons Valley?"
And when he finally arrived at Ten Thousand Demons Valley, he discovered that the entire valley was empty, which drastically changed his expression: "Something’s off. There’s not a single person in Ten Thousand Demons Valley now. Where has the Great Demon Zheng Xiuyuan gone?"
At this moment, a thousand thoughts ran through his mind, considering all sorts of possibilities.
This Great Demon Zheng Xiuyuan is said to not originate from this Square World, possessing a secret treasure. Could it be that he returned to his own world?
But even so, all this is too sudden, and there’s no movement from the Demon Country.
Moreover, Zheng Xiuyuan had previously said that if he were to leave the Demon Country one day, he would surely notify them.
This was also an agreement between the Demon Country and him.
But now Zheng Xiuyuan has vanished: "Could this Zheng Xiuyuan have deceived us all, returning privately to his world, intending to bring others over?"
This Demon Monarch’s face instantly grew ugly. If this were true, they would have been releasing a tiger back to the mountain.
But according to Zheng Xiuyuan’s words, even if he could return to his previous world, he might not be able to come back, and considering that Zheng Xiuyuan might have other uses, they didn’t pursue him to annihilation.
But now that Zheng Xiuyuan has suddenly disappeared, they have no choice but to be on guard.
The Demon Monarch was about to leave here, planning to return to the Demon Country to report when he suddenly recalled something.
"No, the Eastern Peak Sect and Ten Thousand Demons Valley have a grudge, could the two have no intersection?"
This led him to suspect that, since the Eastern Peak Sect had a grudge with Ten Thousand Demons Valley.
Then, naturally, they would have handled the grievance between the two before leaving.
The connection between these two events was too frequent and close, forcing him to suspect there were other reasons.
"Since that’s the case, let’s go to Eastern Peak Sect and have a look first."
After hesitating for a moment, he decided to head to the Eastern Peak Sect first, perhaps finding a different answer for himself.
At this time, Wang Yang was in the Eastern Peak Sect.
