Chapter 1327: Chapter 727 True Spirit_2 Chapter 1327: Chapter 727 True Spirit_2 At that moment, Demon Soldiers had already surrounded them, their steps uniform, the clashing of their iron armor emitting a crisp sound as if heralding their arrival. The leading soldier was tall, his gaze piercing, as if he could see into one’s soul. He scanned Elder Talon Skyler and his companions, his eyes filled with scrutiny and suspicion.

“You dare to hide here and drink wine, your audacity knows no bounds!” the leading soldier said coldly, his voice deep and powerful, as if every word contained endless authority and threat, “Hurry up and come back to Constantia Prefecture to prepare for your punishment! Hmph, don’t think you can escape our scrutiny!”

Elder Talon Skyler’s heart tightened, knowing that any slight carelessness could lead them into a dire situation. However, years of experience had taught him to remain calm in the face of crisis. He took a deep breath, striving to make his voice sound calm and sincere, “Esteemed sir, we truly are just passing by, wanting to rest for a moment, with no other intentions. Look, we do not carry any prohibited items, nor have we engaged in any illegal activities. Please show us mercy and let us go!”

Saying this, Elder Talon Skyler slightly bowed, his hands clasped in front of him in a respectful manner. His companions also followed suit, trying to use their humble attitude to defuse the crisis. However, the Demon Soldiers did not relax their vigilance.

The leading soldier sneered, his eyes twinkling with playfulness and mockery, “Hmph, do you think I would believe such fabrications? You Humans are always full of schemes, trying to infiltrate our Demon territories. But today, you are unlucky to have run into me. I will not let any suspicious person go!”

After speaking, he waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to encircle Elder Talon Skyler and his group. The atmosphere suddenly became tense and oppressive, as if a storm was about to break. Elder Talon Skyler and his companions tensed up, knowing that every moment that followed was critical.

However, just as the situation reached a critical point, an unexpected voice suddenly rang out: “Hold on!” A Demon Clan Noble dressed in magnificent attire slowly approached, a faint smile on his face, yet his eyes emanated undeniable authority, “These people are my guests, you must not disrespect them.”

Hearing this, the Demon Soldiers stopped their actions and turned to look at the noble. Although the leading soldier was reluctant, he could only respectfully salute, “Yes, my lord,” and then led the soldiers away.

Elder Talon Skyler and his companions secretly rejoiced, knowing that they owed their escape from danger to the timely appearance of the noble. They expressed their gratitude to the noble and then quickly left the station, disappearing into the night. However, they also understood that this was only temporary safety, and the road ahead was still filled with unknowns and dangers. They had to be even more cautious in order to successfully avoid the attention of the Demon Race and safely reach their destination.

However, the Demon Soldiers clearly were not convinced, suspicion growing on their faces as if it could drip water. The leading soldier took a step forward, slamming his long spear onto the ground with a “thud” that sent a shiver down everyone’s spine. His gaze was sharp as he stared at Elder Talon Skyler and his group, pressing on, “And, have you not seen any Humans around? How come this station is so empty! Speak, have you hidden the Humans somewhere? Or, are you their accomplices, just pretending here?”

Elder Talon Skyler and his companions looked at each other, their anxiety intensifying. They frowned, looking around as if searching for the whereabouts of Humans. But their eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and confusion. They knew that the Humans had grown smarter; faced with the pursuit of the Demon Race, they had either left early to hide deep in the mountains or remote villages; or they were scattered around, hiding in corners or dark places of the station, holding their breath, fearful of being discovered by the Demon Race.

“My lord, we truly haven’t seen any Humans!” Elder Talon Skyler pleaded desperately, his voice trembling slightly, yet still trying to maintain composure, “Please believe us, we are just innocent passersby. We just wanted to have some wine here, rest a while, and then continue on our journey. How could we possibly hide Humans? What benefit would that bring us?”

He spoke, spreading his hands, signaling that he bore no malice. His companions also nodded in agreement, their faces filled with sincerity and innocence. However, the Demon Soldiers did not relax their vigilance.

The leading soldier sneered, his eyes twinkling with amusement and doubt, “Hmph, just because you say you didn’t see doesn’t mean you didn’t. The Human race is best at lying and deceiving. But, I’m too lazy to waste words with you. Someone come, search! Don’t leave any corner untouched, find the Humans!”

At his command, the Demon Soldiers dispersed and began searching throughout the station. They overturned boxes, kicked doors, and even used spears to pierce walls, attempting to find the hiding place of the Humans. The station quickly turned into chaos, a complete mess.

Elder Talon Skyler and his companions felt a growing anxiety. They knew that if the Demon Soldiers did not find any Humans, they would vent their anger on them. They had to find a way to quickly escape this crisis.

Just then, an unexpected voice suddenly rang out, “Stop!” The Demon Clan Noble they had seen earlier reappeared before everyone, his face showing some anger. “What are you doing? Don’t you know this is my station? Who gave you the right to run amok here?”

Hearing this, the Demon Soldiers stopped their actions and turned to look at the noble. The leader, though reluctant, could only bow respectfully, “Sorry, my lord. We are only following orders to search for the whereabouts of the Human race. Please forgive our rudeness.”

The noble scoffed, his eyes showing undeniable authority, “Searching for Humans? Do you think the Humans would foolishly stay here waiting for you to catch them? They have long since escaped without a trace. Moreover, your rampant search only causes greater panic and chaos. Get out, and don’t let me see you causing trouble here again!”

The Demon Soldiers, upon hearing this, bowed their heads, and then sheepishly left the station. Elder Talon Skyler and his companions inwardly rejoiced, knowing that they had once again managed to turn danger into safety thanks to the timely arrival of the noble. They expressed their gratitude to the noble and then quickly left the station, disappearing into the night.

However, they also understood that this was only temporary safety. The road ahead was still full of unknowns and dangers. They needed to be even more careful to successfully avoid the attention of the Demon Race and safely reach their destination. In their hearts, they silently prayed for the day when the Human race would throw off the rule of the Demon Race and usher in true peace and freedom.

The Demon Soldiers, upon hearing the words, showed skeptical expressions. They furrowed their brows and scanned Elder Talon Skyler and his group, as if trying to detect any flaws in their expressions and actions. They exchanged glances filled with caution and suspicion, seemingly weighing whether Elder Talon Skyler’s words were credible. Yet, in this tense atmosphere that felt almost wringing wet, no one dared to make a rash decision. After all, if they misjudged, the consequences were unthinkable.

The leader pondered for a moment, his gaze sharp as a knife’s blade, skimming across Elder Talon Skyler’s face. He seemed to be assessing every sentence, every movement, trying to catch a trace of lies.
