Large tracts of snowflakes fell from the dim sky one after another, without causing any waves, and disappeared silently into the vast sea.
A tall gray passenger ship came through the wind and snow, cutting through the waves.
On the shore, Hu Shuai's hill-like body remained motionless, next to him were the demon cats and a group of second-level demon beasts.
The passenger ship was very fast, and it didn't suddenly slow down until it was a hundred feet away, and slowly docked towards the pier.
Before it even reached the shore, the tall figure who had been standing on the bow of the ship jumped down, accompanied by a hearty laughter:
"Brother Huchen, we meet again!"
Hu Chen, this is the name of Commander Tiger. At this time, the demon tiger stood upright like a human, and also arched its front palms like a human:
"Fellow Taoist Xiong Yue, long time no see."
The one named Xiong Yue was a third-level demon bear. When he saw the owner of Huju Island personally coming to the pier to greet him, he felt very honored. He laughed a few times and greeted the demon cat as a gift. As for those second-level monsters, it was reasonable.
Ignore it.
A group of monster beasts, surrounded by three third-level monster commanders, walked toward the mountain in a mighty manner.
There is a grand hall on the mountainside, with carved railings and jade walls. It is magnificent and magnificent. It was built by the human monks who organized the human race in Huroar Valley. Commander Hu usually doesn't like to stay here, but when guests come, he entertains them in this hall. p>
Outside the palace is covered with snow, and several pots of fire are burning inside the palace. There are even two rows of green plants dotting the hall, making it as hot as summer.
A group of monsters filed in, with Tiger Commander at the top, and the Demon Bear sitting in the host and guest position, opposite the accompanying Demon Cat. Generally speaking, after the monsters reach the third level, their behavior has gradually become more human-like. For example, at this banquet, each of them
Sit on the large stone chair and lean your upper body forward, which is almost the same as a human being. It is also easier to talk and eat.
As for the second-level monsters, most of them have not changed their habits and cannot enter such an elegant hall at this moment. They can only stand or squat behind the monster commander to act as a guard to increase their power.
A row of demon foxes came forward and placed spiritual honey, fish fillets and other food in front of the table. These are all bears' favorite food, and they obviously take care of the guests' preferences.
Several more demon monkeys came forward, each holding a wine jar weighing twenty kilograms.
Xiong Yue was overjoyed when he saw the fine wine. He immediately stretched out his giant palm and grabbed the wine jar. Then the wind from his palm struck out and the seal fell with a sound, leaving a neat incision.
The demon bear raised its neck, drank it all in one gulp, wiped the wine from the corner of its mouth with its furry palm, and shouted: "Happy, happy!"
Then he licked his face and said with a smile: "Brother Huchen, when did you hide this kind of fine wine? I have never drunk it before!"
"If you like it, brother, I will give you ten altars when I leave." Hushuai Yun said lightly.
"Okay!" Xiong Yue was overjoyed and clapped his hands. A second-level demon bear behind him took a step forward and took out a tray from the storage bag with a wooden box on it.
"Brother, it's cool. Little brother, I can't hide it. I brought all the things I agreed to last time!"
Hu Shuai had no expression on his face and gestured slightly to the demon cat.
The cat manager stepped forward to take it and opened the wooden box in front of everyone, only to see a box full of red fruits. There were about ten fruits in the middle that were so red that they turned black and were as transparent as agate.
"One hundred blood-refined fruits, ten of which are third-level," the bear demon said proudly, "Brother Huchen, would you like to order some?"
"No need," Hushuai waved his hand and said calmly: "I still don't believe you, brother?"
The cat manager happily closed the wooden box and put it into the storage bag on his waist.
Monsters usually have bloodline talents that are born with them. The purer the bloodline, the stronger the talent, and the stronger the strength. The blood refining fruit is just such a spiritual fruit that helps to purify the bloodline. Among them, those of the third level,
It is of great benefit to both handsome tigers and demon cats.
However, compared with the joyful demon cat, Hu Shuai has a calm face, even a little gloomy.
Sure enough, Yao Xiong changed his tune and revealed his intention:
"Brother, I have prepared all the blood refining fruits. What about the red mud island?"
"Drink!" Hu Shuai shouted loudly, and when he saw the demon bear suddenly changed his color, he immediately said slowly: "Why are you so anxious! It's your turn, are you afraid that I won't give it to you?"
"How dare you." The demon bear snorted, grabbed another jar of wine next to him, and drank most of it.
It turns out that five years ago, the sea tribe in this sea area, led by Na Haiyu, combined with several third-level demon fish, once launched a large-scale attack on Huju Island.
The battle between the Monster Clan and the Sea Clan has been going on for a long time, and a battle of this scale happens every once in a while.
However, that time, the old demon tiger, one of the three giants of Huju Island, refused to fight on the grounds of old age and frailty. However, the demon cat was weak at the early stage of the third level, and the tiger commander was weak, so he had no choice but to attack the giant bear.
Island asked for help, and finally with the help of Xiong Yue, they repelled the sea monster.
The reward given by Huju Island is Hongni Island.
This island is relatively close to Giant Bear Island and has always been coveted by Xiong Yue. It is only a hundred miles in radius and the land is barren. Apart from being rich in a kind of spiritual material called Hong Nao Jin, there is no other income. Therefore, Hu Shuai agreed without thinking at that time.
.
But I didn't expect news to come from the mainland later that the Demon Lord was organizing high-level human monks to refine a large magic weapon...
Hongnao gold is a very high-quality adhesive material, which is suitable for such large-scale magic weapons. So in a short period of time, the price of Hongnao gold increased several times, and Hongni Island became very popular.
Commander Hu was unwilling to do so, and kept delaying it on the grounds that Xiong Yue had promised a hundred blood refining fruits at that time, but he didn't expect that the demon bear had actually brought the spirit fruit today, and it had no reason to shirk.
Feeling unhappy, the wine was naturally tasteless. As a distinguished guest, Xiong Yue could not stand this kind of atmosphere. After drinking the second jar of spiritual wine, he suddenly spat the fish pieces on the ground with a "poof" sound. "Eat fish every day, eat fish every day, and a bird will appear in your mouth!"
"Brother Huchen, do you eat this bird food every day when you are on the island?"
This was a very rude question. The Demon Cat's expression changed and he was about to speak out when he saw Commander Hu wave his hand and order:
"Go and call that boy named Yang Zhen. Can't he cook? Let him cook two delicious dishes on the spot."
"If you don't do well, you will be killed."
After saying that, he raised the wine jar again and gestured to Xiong Yue: "Drink!"
There was an undoubted momentum in his tone. Xiong Yue's strength was not as good as it. Seeing that it was angry, he did not dare to do it again. He snorted, picked up a wine bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
Not long after, footsteps sounded outside the door, and a young man in a green shirt strode in. It was Yang Zhen.
When the demon cat sent someone to summon him, he had just finished refining today's bone-strengthening pill. He thought he could go back and rest, but he didn't want to have another mission.
"I've met Hu Shuai." He bowed his head and cupped his hands.
Xiong Yue has a huge body, so of course he cannot miss him, but since there is no one to introduce him, there is no need for him to come over to greet him.
The demon bear looked at the young man, his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up.

Thank you to my old friend velociraptor for your monthly support for two consecutive days! Thank you, carrot!
ps: I am out with my wife and children this week. Well, in the words of my wife, you are not making any money writing this, and you are not spending time with your children when you are out. I can’t answer it. (face covering)
So, hey, this is all time code, proving that I am still here.
It should be fine next week. Because the content of the next ten chapters has been in my mind during this period, and it has basically been determined.
