While the demon guards were frantically rushing into the depths of the Demon Suo Cave, a solemn atmosphere filled the entire mountain peak on a towering peak a few kilometers away from Mingli Peak.
Longxue Peak is one of the two demon king peaks hidden outside the outer seven peaks. The peak is over a thousand meters above sea level. The mountain is covered by dense jungle. The soft and erratic clouds and mist cover the green mountain like a veil.
Due to its special reasons, the entire mountain peak enjoys warm sunshine and comfortable temperatures all year round.
The gurgling water is like playful children chasing and playing, rushing from the spring at the top of the mountain to the pool at the foot of the mountain.
In addition to these unique natural environments, the Xulong Mountain Demon Clan also mobilized all the demon souls within its sphere of influence who are good at various crafts to build an exquisite palace complex on the top of the mountain.
Since then, this palace complex has become an important place for the Xulong Mountain Demon Clan to receive foreign guests and other powerful demons.
In the reception hall located in the front yard of the palace, a dozen men and women wearing various costumes were sitting solemnly on wooden chairs in the main hall.
This usually empty hall was now filled with a low and depressing atmosphere, making every guard standing around the hall feel terrified.
"The blood-eating demon, you are in such a big situation this time. Do you want to give everyone a reasonable explanation?"
Sitting on the left side, a purple-haired woman wearing black gauze and silk sneered as she looked at the man in the third position on the right.
This man was seen wearing black and gold armor all over his body, with silver decorative textures crisscrossing the entire armor surface, forming a strange skull pattern.
The pale and bloodless face was as cold and silent as a dead person, and the whites of his black eyes stared straight at the sight of the purple-haired woman.
The blue lips opened slightly, revealing sharp teeth hidden in the darkness.
"Zi Scorpion... I just learned about this matter, so what does it matter to you?"
The blood-eating demon's lips and teeth trembled, and a sound like bone tearing floated throughout the hall, making people feel cold all over.
"Blood-eating, this matter is not just a matter of your Blood-Eating Demon Court."
In the corner of the hall, a man with orange hair and dark green robes, leaning against a stone pillar, turned his head and retorted with a chuckle.
"Liu Ye is right, the current problem of Blood Eater is not just a matter of your Blood Eater Demon Court."
"Have you ever thought about how much trouble this matter will cause us once it is leaked and known by those little demon forces?"
In the first seat on the right, a tall man with his upper body exposed calmly stared at the blood-eating demon. His well-developed and strong muscles were like raised rocks, full of lines.
"I have escorted the goods to the Demon Lock Cave, but the goods broke through my area and disappeared."
"I think this is not just a problem of our Blood-eating Demon Court."
The blood-eating demon's lips trembled stiffly, and there was a coldness in the dark eyes.
"Eating blood, what do you mean? Do you think I swallowed your goods?"
Just as the blood-eating demon finished speaking, an old man sitting on the desk behind him gently pressed the wooden staff in his hand and scolded him sternly.
"Shugu, why are you so excited?"
The blood-eating demon's stiff face twisted into a disdainful expression.
Just this morning, his commander in charge of escorting the cargo suddenly reported that the most important item in the cargo had escaped from the prison grotto and disappeared.
For this reason, he rushed all the way to the mountains on his white bone mount.
Just when he was about to enter the Demon Locking Cave, many big demons who came after hearing the news called him to Long Xuefeng's reception hall, and then the scene just happened.
"Blood Eater, you'd better give us a reasonable explanation."
"Yes, you must know that this matter is not only related to your blood-eating demon court, but also to the interests of more than twenty demon courts."
More than a dozen big demons in the hall were talking to each other, and their words were directed at the blood-eating demon that caused all this.
"Hmph, don't think that I don't understand what you are thinking and want to kick us out of the Blood-Eating Demon Court, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
Looking at these familiar faces, the blood-eating demon showed a bit of ruthlessness on his face.
"Everyone, stop it. After all, the blood-eating demon doesn't know about this matter. Our top priority now is to find the escaped cargo first."
Sensing the craziness in Blood Eater's words, a middle-aged man with a beard who was the head of the hall frowned and in a few words eased the atmosphere in front of the many great demons.
"What Elder Mad Ape said makes some sense."
"Xue Shi does not know about this matter. No one here can predict whether this kind of thing will happen to them."
Seeing that the blood-eating demon's bottom line had been touched, the demons from various factions turned around one after another.
For them, this matter is actually just a slightly troublesome matter. The reason why they are so mobilized is because they want to try to see if they can use this opportunity to kick out the Blood-Eating Demon Court.
You must know that the blood-eating demon is a veteran spiritual body realm demon, and its strength has reached the three true qualities of the spiritual body half a year ago.
The generals under their command also show signs of breaking through to the spirit realm, so they have to worry.
"The blood-eating demon, since everyone has expressed their understanding, can you please tell me the specific situation?"
The mad ape looked directly at the blood-eating demon. As one of the three elders of the Bearded Dragon Mountain demon clan, it had learned some information from the escort team before, but it knew nothing about the details.
"Blood-eating, you can't resist this matter." Many great demons snorted coldly.
"I don't know yet about this matter. Let the corpse tell you."
After the blood-eating demon finished speaking, a zombie with exposed bones behind it walked out of the hall and ushered in the corpse waiting outside the hall.
"Ghoul, what exactly is going on? Please talk to me and the other great demons."
There is a deep coldness hidden in the blood-eating demon court. As the leader of the blood-eating demon court, the corpse ghost can even make mistakes in such a trivial matter as escorting goods.
"Yes, I followed your instructions and used the sacrificial prison car to escort the fairy demon soul to the gathering for sale."
"To ensure safety, I personally escorted her to the prison and watched with my own eyes as the guard demon fastened the chains on her limbs."
The corpse ghost lowered his head to narrate, and his already gray face looked even more gloomy.
"Then how did she escape? Could it be that someone else went to the prison cave where your Blood-eating Demon Court belongs? It's really funny."
Before the corpse ghost could finish speaking, the Shugu demon sitting next to him laughed mockingly.
"Shugu, you still want me to finish my sentence."
On the seat next to the Shugu Demon, a woman with gorgeous clothes and an unusually coquettish appearance covered her lips with her hands and chuckled.
