Chapter 766: Dangerous land ahead, ambushes behind
Lord Shentu listened to Shu Han's consolation and was silent for a long time. Finally, he sighed: "Fellow Daoist, you are right. Such an alliance of loose cultivators cannot protect the Tianhuang human race at all, because this alliance is not for the Tianhuang human race."
However, the Rogue Cultivator Alliance will not always be like this. Soon, when I am strong enough to replace the two elders who control the alliance, the alliance will slowly change."
Hearing the four words "replace", Shu Han smiled from the bottom of his heart. He had long seen that Marquis Shentu was dissatisfied with Mo Wen and Wu Shu and wanted to replace them, but he did not expect that Marquis Shentu would say it to him without any cover.
Shu Han cupped his hands and said, "When Taoist Fellow Taoist takes charge of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, please leave me a seat in the Taoist Fellow Alliance."
Marquis Shentu laughed loudly: "It's easy to talk! With the talent of fellow Taoist Feng, if you can join our casual cultivator alliance, the alliance will surely flourish. I, Marquis Shentu, am waiting for that day to come!"
Then, Shentuhou calculated the time and said to Shu Han: "I'm sorry, fellow Taoist Feng, I should have a banquet to entertain fellow Taoist today, but Shen has important things to attend to, so he has to hurry up and leave. Go.
If you fellow Taoist would like to ask for a drink, please come to the Rogue Cultivator Alliance to see me, Marquis Shentu!"
Shu Han nodded and said, "See you again in the future!"
After saying that, Marquis Shentu wanted to get up and leave. However, at this time, the remnants of the demon-suppressing pass gathered at the foot of the city and knelt down uniformly on one knee to worship Marquis Shentu.
"Thank you, Senior Shen, for rescuing the Demon-Suppressing Pass. All the officers and soldiers of the Pass kowtow to you!"
The shouts were loud, and they did not lower their unyielding heads even though they were standing in the mountain of corpses and sea of blood. However, at this moment, all the soldiers in the city were kowtowing to Lord Shentu to thank him. Seeing this scene, Lord Shentu was silent for a long time, but suddenly Lord Shentu shouted
He drank loudly, startling Shu Han.
"A bunch of trash! If you have time to kowtow to me and thank me, you might as well go count the corpses and clean the battlefield! It's really shameful that a mere wave of monsters has been defeated like this, and I still have to work hard to take action!"
The arrogance and arrogance of Shentu Hou showed up again. He arrogantly cursed: "Damn it, today is really unlucky. Originally, I ran out of wine, so I came to Zhenyao Pass to get some wine, but I ended up bumping into you and you were defeated like a mountain.
Come on! Come on, uncle, I’ve lost all my thoughts on drinking!”
Then Shentuhou threw out a storage bag and cursed: "Why are you still kneeling here! Go get all the aged wine in the pass for me and fill this storage bag! Hurry, I am still in a hurry! Wrong!
If it’s my fault, I’ll break all of your legs!”
Upon hearing this, the soldiers were shocked at first, and then blushed in unison.
Shu Han watched silently as Shentu Hou showed off his evil deeds and slowly flew away from the Demon Suppression Pass.
He slowly analyzed Marquis Shentu in his mind and felt that there was indeed arrogance in his personality. However, after having an in-depth chat with him, Shu Han felt that his current arrogance and domineering attitude was just an act.
Without concealing his ambition to take over, he still pretended to be so arrogant and domineering. What exactly was this Shentu Hou's plan?
In Shu Han's mind, he believed that since Shentu Hou had the ambition to replace the two monks and reform the alliance, he should hide his ambition, keep a low profile, and secretly win over other Nascent Soul monks to consolidate his reputation and power. Instead of being so arrogant and domineering, obviously
Go against the second elder.
Now Mo Wen and Wu Shu are both overtly and secretly jealous of Shentu Hou.
In this case, how can it be accomplished?
After thinking about it, Shu Han felt that there was something else hidden beneath the arrogant and arrogant appearance of Marquis Shentu.
"The situation within the Loose Cultivator Alliance is really complicated and confusing! Sure enough, wherever people gather, there will be intrigues and disputes."
…
After Shentuhou got the wine at Zhenyao Pass, he returned to the resting place of the two elders drunk.
Seeing that Marquis Shentu was not doing his job properly and was very drunk, the two elders were dissatisfied to varying degrees. However, since Marquis Shentu was the backbone of this operation, they did not say much, so the four of them continued towards the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.
Escape.
After passing the Demon Suppression Pass, we arrived at the territory of the Demon Clan.
The territory of the Tianhuang human race is already considered desolate, and the territory of the demon clan is even more deserted. There is no one at all here, only many demonic beasts walking in the mountains and forests, flying under the blue sky and white clouds.
Fortunately, the four of them are all Nascent Soul monks with good skills. After entering the territory of the demon clan, the four of them began to hide their auras again, and ordinary demon beasts could not detect the traces of the four of them. In this way, the four of them traveled unimpeded all the way to the demon clan.
The core of the clan is the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.
During the flight, Shu Han kept feeling very strange.
That is to say, the flight speed of the four people was not at its maximum. The four of them were moving at the normal flight speed of the mid-stage Nascent Soul. Shu Han thought that the four of them were concerned about his cultivation and did not speed up the flight speed, so Shu Han
Han proactively suggested increasing his escape speed and trying to get to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons as soon as possible.
However, his suggestion was immediately rejected by Wu Shu.
Wu Shu rejected Shu Han's proposal on the grounds that flying at high speed would provoke the demon clan, and also advised Shu Han to conserve his mana to deal with any emergencies.
This made Shu Han feel confused.
It stands to reason that the Demon King is encircling the real dragon and may return to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons at any time. For the sake of safety, he should race against time! This Wu Shu's attitude is really a bit strange.
Shu Han thought hard and felt that Wu Shu did this not because he was afraid of provoking the demon clan, but because he had other motives.
Deliberately lowering the escape speed, there are only two possibilities!
Either he was trying to catch the opportunity and didn't want to get to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons in advance; or he was waiting for someone, and flying with all his strength would make the waiting person unable to keep up with the rhythm.
These two conjectures made Shu Han feel that something was wrong! There must be an ulterior secret in this trip between the two elders!
In Ten Thousand Demons Valley, Shu Han was unable to verify, so Shu Han followed closely and began to carefully investigate the rear of their flight to see if there was anyone following them! The result was unknown without checking, but after checking, it turned out that
There were four Nascent Soul Stage monks following them quietly in the distance!
There is also an acquaintance among them!
Zhou Tianlong!
"One mid-term, three early stages! No wonder Wu Shuyao doesn't want me to increase my escape speed! If I increase my escape speed, these people probably won't be able to catch up."
"There is the dangerous area of Ten Thousand Demons Valley in front of me, there are lurking soldiers behind, and there are two old men with ulterior motives in the middle. It is true as I expected, the trip to Ten Thousand Demons Valley is really a trap. If this trap is not to trap me, then it is just
It could be used to plot against Marquis Shentu."
Combined with the two elders' overt and covert dissatisfaction with Shentu Hou, Shu Han has basically determined that the two elders' move is to trap Shentu Hou and seize the psychic treasure Mu Yunling from him.
"Should I inform Marquis Shentu of this situation? This man has a good heart. It is a pity that he fell into the trap of the two elders in vain... But, how should I remind him?"
After thinking about it, Shu Han decided to wait and see what happens.
After all, Marquis Shentu has a hidden trump card, and he also has his own body hiding in the dark.
The most important point is that Shu Han felt in his heart that Marquis Shentu was not the kind of person who would foolishly fall into other people's traps.
