Those who didn't know each other naturally looked on with cold eyes, those who had interacted with the Lan family greeted them with smiles on their faces, and those who had a grudge against the Lan family were specifically looking for trouble with the Lan family.
These are the norm. Which force in the field is not like this?
So Ye Chu faced these with a calm face, occasionally saying a word or two, but most of them were left to Lan Lin to take care of. After all, these are his family affairs and have nothing to do with Ye Chu. He is just pretending.
.
After sitting in the Lan family's seat for a while, Ye Chu also saw some demons from Anyang City. They were all dressed up, either to hide their identities, or to participate directly in their own identities.
Shopkeeper Dong Kun of Guanghui Tower participated in it in his own capacity. He was one of the few powerful forces in Anyang City, so naturally he had many demon cultivators to fawn over him.
Dong Kun has been around for who knows how long. He interacts with all kinds of people almost every day, and he has long been trained to lie to the point where his face does not turn red and his heart does not beat.
The same was basically true for people from other forces in Anyang City. Ye Chu saw them from a distance but did not step forward to say hello.
Although the real birthday is still one day away, it has actually begun now, but time has long become blurry to those who practice Taoism.
Therefore, this advance banquet will not feel full at all from now to the next day.
After all, the demonic energy here is pure, and there are many magic fruits and other treasures provided. Many demonic cultivators have eaten to their full, and then slowly digested it, refined the demonic energy, and increased their cultivation.
The day passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, a few of the dark and gloomy Eighteen Demons finally showed up. This was a middle-aged man with a rough face but a rather bold style.
He is the eleventh-ranked Fierce Flame Old Demon among the Eighteen Dark Demons. His cultivation is at the top of the Demon Head Realm. He has survived the blood and fire. His strength is extremely terrifying.
This person walked among many demonic cultivators and kept toasting with many demonic cultivators, saying hello and thanking them for coming.
There were many demon cultivators present, but when Old Demon Lieyan came around, his expression did not change at all, and his laughter remained the same.
This was just the beginning. Soon other demons from the Eighteen Gloomy Demons appeared. They all greeted the many demon cultivators and continued to enjoy the food.
When the banquet came to an end, Yin Shen Zi from the Yin Shen Mountains appeared, followed by several members of the Eighteen Dark Demons.
The members of the Eighteen Demons of Yin Shen are old and young, male and female. Yin Shenzi is a man and an old man. He seems to be eighty or ninety years old, very old.
But this man's aura is profound, and his eyes flash with gleams of light, giving people the feeling of being stared at by a lion, making all the hairs on his body stand up.
One can imagine what terrifying power is hidden under that seemingly decrepit body!
With the arrival of Yin Shenzi, many demon cultivators in the scene suddenly became silent and looked at the protagonist of this birthday banquet, Yin Shenzi.
As the leader of a bandit, Yin Shenzi does not have that irreverent attitude. He is just like an ordinary old man and does not have any special momentum.
His voice was low, but it spread evenly in the field. No matter how far away he was, it was as if Yin Shenzi was talking next to him.
This move has already demonstrated Yin Shenzi's ability to control demonic energy, which is extraordinary.
"I am very happy that all of you comrades can come and participate in my birthday."
After saying that, Yin Shenzi raised the wine glass in his hand and raised it towards everyone. Many demon cultivators raised their wine glasses and drank with Yin Shenzi.
After finishing the drink, Yin Shenzi continued to speak. Although his words were a bit long, they paid attention to the many demon cultivators present.
After talking about it, not only did the reputation of the Eighteen Gloomy Demons increase by one point, but many demon cultivators also felt comfortable in their hearts.
At the end of the conversation, Yin Shenzi even took out a precious treasure, saying that he got it by chance and wanted to share it with many demon cultivators.
Although many demon cultivators don't really believe this statement, it may be beneficial and no one will let it go casually.
Yin Shenzi would not just give the treasure away, but would instead make suggestions and organize a discussion meeting to select the best among them and reward them with treasures.
Regarding these treasures, Ye Chu has already received some news. These treasures are indeed very cherished by demon cultivators in the demon realm, and are even useful to their great demon realm.
It is precisely because these treasures will be taken out that so many demon cultivators will participate in the birthday of the Eighteen Dark Demons this time.
Not only is the friendship with the gloomy Eighteen Demons, but there are also some obvious benefits. Otherwise, who would come all the way to the bandit den?
The plan to annihilate the Eighteen Dark Demons was launched in this Dao Discussion Conference.
Lin Mo, the city lord's palace, didn't know where he got the news. He had already informed many demon cultivators in Anyang City that this discussion conference would be held.
Obviously, the city lord Lin Mo had long wanted to destroy the Eighteen Dark Demons, and had already started to arrange some spies among the Eighteen Dark Demons.
Ye Chu represents the Lan family in Chongshui City, and is inconspicuous among the many forces in the field. Very few people notice Ye Chu, not to mention that Ye Chu rarely speaks.
Ye Chujing watched the situation unfold slowly, and quickly decided on some relevant regulations for the Tao Discussion Conference, and also added some other treasures to increase the interest of many demon cultivators.
The Taoism Conference was held as scheduled soon. It would be too conspicuous not to participate in such a thing with valuable rewards.
In order to avoid suspicion, Ye Chu naturally participated in this discussion conference. However, Ye Chu still had serious things to do, so he just dealt with it casually and gave up.
Seeing the Dao Discussion Conference in full swing, Ye Chu smiled and said nothing. He just said hello to Lan Lin, the elder of the Lan family, and dodged into the crowd.
Ye Chu's aura was constricting, his figure was changing, and his clothes were changed into inconspicuous clothes. Soon Ye Chu completely disappeared among the crowd, and even acquaintances found it difficult to find Ye Chu.
After running around for a while, Ye Chu quickly left the crowd and moved secretly in the valley.
There are many buildings in the valley, and there are also many gangsters from the Dark Eighteen Demons. Although most of them are half drunk and chatting with acquaintances or guests, there are still some gangsters who are still sticking to their posts and inspecting the safety of the valley.
.
Ye Chu was very powerful and his hiding skills were even more superb. The Little Heaven and Earth Escape Technique that he had not used for a long time was once again used by Ye Chu.
The devilish aura of the devilish realm was completely concealed, and not a single trace was revealed. As long as the devil didn't touch him face-to-face, it would be impossible to see through Ye Chu.
Even if a demon spirit sweeps over Ye Chu's body, he will only regard Ye Chu as a dead object such as a stone or a piece of wood.
This is the mystery of Ye Chu's Little Heaven and Earth Escape Technique!
As early as the discussion at the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Chu had already obtained a rough map of the valley. At this moment, Ye Chu was following this map to go to the place he had originally planned.
The place there was naturally not a good place, but a foothold of the mountain protection formation in the valley. Ye Chu's initial mission was naturally to destroy this foothold.
Only by destroying the formation and paralyzing the mountain-protecting formation here can Ye Chu and others start killing, and they will not be suppressed by the Eighteen Gloomy Demons.
Otherwise, the mountain-protecting formation in the valley alone would be enough to upset Ye Chu and others, and most of their strength would be tied up by the formation.
Even if they finally break through the formation, Ye Chu and the others in Anyang City will still be unable to defeat the victorious Dark Eighteen Demons and other fierce bandits.
What's more, the Gloomy Eighteen Demons will not just watch Anyang City break the formation. Many strong men will die just on the way to break the formation.
At the final moment of breaking the formation, the Eighteen Gloomy Demons will also activate the final power of the formation, covering the Eighteen Gloomy Demons' escape into the depths of the Gloomy Mountains to preserve their strength.
It is precisely for this reason that the Eighteen Dark Demons are so difficult to deal with. Not only are the Eighteen Dark Demons themselves powerful, but they are also cunning.
They will never fight to the death with their opponents, or get entangled with them. If they are outmatched in strength, or if they are equal, the Eighteen Dark Demons will flee far away and will not get entangled.
Only when the place is weak, they will fight to the death and like to crush their opponents.
Therefore, the most important thing to suppress the bandits is to cut off the escape route of the Eighteen Dark Demons. Only in this way can we fight against the Eighteen Dark Demons and do our best to defeat the Eighteen Dark Demons in one go.
