Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Furious (2 more updates)

Yes.

Despite Diao Ruru’s active search for her elder brother,

her heart was even more desperate and pessimistic than Diao Deyi’s.

Even from the first day her brother disappeared, she had contemplated the possibility that he might already be deceased.

Diao Ruru just didn’t want to give up. She wanted to see him alive or find his body; it was as simple as that.

But if even Diao Deyi encountered trouble...

Diao Ruru dared not think further, her slender figure trembling slightly in the crowd, her expression seeming to forcibly endure some emotion.

Batch after batch of prisoners were brought up for execution.

But when the last batch of prisoners to be executed were brought in, evening was approaching.

The crowd’s fervor remained undiminished, with cries of denunciation echoing.

Diao Ruru looked up again.

She scanned the area and felt slightly relieved.

Diao Deyi was not among these people.

"But besides the vegetable market on the east street, there are execution platforms on the west street and north street. Perhaps Diao Deyi has already been executed there..."

Thinking of this terrible possibility, Diao Ruru’s body started to tremble violently again.

Subconsciously, her right hand rested on her left arm, exerting slight pressure to numb her pain.

"No, I must believe in Diao Deyi, he has to be alive! He must be!"

"Yes! I need to go home! Go home and wait for him!"

"Just like waiting at home for my elder brother, they will all return! They will all come back..."

As if seized by a thought, Diao Ruru pushed through the crowd and ran towards home.

But when she arrived, the house was just as empty as when she left.

Diao Ruru sat in despair on the wooden stool by the dining table.

One hand stretched forward resting on the table, her head gently placed upon it.

Her vacant gaze aimlessly watched the bustling crowd outside the door.

"Will he come back..."

"Can he still return?"

Diao Ruru visited the Foolish Underworld.

But everyone in the Foolish Underworld said they hadn’t seen Diao Deyi.

When she kept asking, no one paid attention to her anymore.

Diao Ruru understood; the Foolish Underworld was busy.

After all, it was just beginning to calm down from yesterday’s chaos, lots of wrap-up work still needed to be handled.

But she didn’t want to think about these rational things.

She only wanted to know one thing.

That was whether her brother, Diao Deyi, was still alive.

If he was alive, why hadn’t he come home?

Diao Ruru didn’t know, she knew nothing.

All she could do was wait, only wait.

Diao Ruru loathed this powerless version of herself, but in such a world, what could a weak woman like her do?

Tears, eventually, uncontrollably started flowing.

Her vision blurred, Diao Ruru recalled the bits and pieces of her childhood.

A complex expression that seemed both like a smile and a cry appeared on her face.

Under the glow of the setting sun, her figure seemed especially desolate, alone.

...

Yunsha Rice Shop, a dark room.

Green Demon opened his eyes.

He had fully recovered.

After resting for a day, he then hid for another day to avoid detection.

Now, it was the third day after the plan.

Next to Green Demon lay Light Feather Demon, with half of his wing broken, still in deep rest.

Even with Thousand Spider Demon and Blood Demon’s desperate cover,

the intensity of the pursuit was still unrelenting.

Or to say, Lin Family’s madman was too crazed.

Just for Lin Biesheng’s death, Lin Jie acted like a lunatic, recklessly pursuing him.

Had not Lin Jie ultimately collapsed from exhaustion, distracting the Lin Family troops to tend to him, Green Demon would have hardly escaped.

"Do you think you’re the only one in pain and hatred!"

"Lin Jie, you don’t want to live! Wait till I’m prepared, the first one I’ll kill is you!"

Thinking of the last horrific deaths of Thousand Spider Demon and Blood Demon in the hands of those two groups of people, Green Demon still had rage in his heart.

"Green Demon."

At this moment, Light Feather Demon also slowly woke up.

Green Demon didn’t speak but just reached out a hand and inserted it into Light Feather Demon’s body.

Gurgling.

Flesh writhed, the broken wing regenerated, and body injuries quickly recovered.

Light Feather Demon’s eyes widened.

No matter how many times he saw it, the capabilities of a Pure Blood Demon always shocked him immensely.

This wasn’t healing, but rebirth, reconstitution.

On a different level altogether, not the same grade as the healing abilities of ordinary demons.

With a slight exertion from Green Demon, a layer of human skin covered Light Feather Demon’s body.

If Fang Yu was here at this moment, he would recognize a familiar name and health bar.

[Bie Huzi: 1066/1066.]

"Thank you," Bie Huzi respectfully said.

Green Demon then withdrew his hand, the tree bark peeled outward, flesh and bones covering his true body.

At the same time, his form shrank, internally forming bones, organs, and other human parts.

Green Demon transformed back into Yue Guang’s appearance.

"Let’s go."

Yue Guang stood up and walked outside.

"Where to?"

Bie Huzi was confused.

"Luo Shen Cloth Workshop."

...

Luo Shen Cloth Workshop.

The widow owner, dressed in red, was frowning as she went through the recent accounts.

Thud thud thud.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The person who pushed the door and entered was a female worker of the workshop.

The female worker lowered her head and said.

"Matchmaker, someone is looking for you."

"What’s their background?"

"I don’t know, it’s two men."

After speaking, the female worker stole a glance at the matchmaker.

Although the matchmaker was over thirty, her beauty had not faded and had even increased.

Her unique voice also gave a wonderful feeling, inexplicably soothing.

What the matchmaker’s real name was, few people knew now.

Only that after she became a widow, she took over this cloth workshop and had been running it until today.

With no family and no external support, she alone upheld this sizable cloth workshop.

Many wealthy lords and young masters lusted after the matchmaker, but she never took interest and this became a popular story among the locals.

Unexpectedly today, two men had shown up; it seemed they did not know about the matchmaker’s prowess.

They were set for a harsh rejection...

"Let them in."

"...What?"

The female worker was taken aback.

"Let them in, I want to see if they are here for business," the matchmaker repeated.

"Yes."

The female worker suddenly realized.

She was overthinking; if they were here to discuss business, that would be quite normal.

However, to talk business without announcing their house name showed great confidence.

The female worker exited, and soon Yue Guang and Bie Huzi stepped in.

Closing the door behind them, Yue Guang walked up to the matchmaker.

Eyes meeting, they almost simultaneously spoke.

"You just barged in to find me like this?"

"Your subordinates have betrayed you."

Yue Guang: "..."

Matchmaker: "..."

The matchmaker furrowed her brows.

"Which subordinate, Blood Demon? Or..."

Yue Guang interrupted.

"Pig Demon and Cat Demon!"

"Them?" The matchmaker shook her head: "It shouldn’t be, they shouldn’t have reached that stage yet. They should still be able to maintain rationality."

Yue Guang’s expression darkened.

"They sold out our retreat point to humans!"

The matchmaker was immediately baffled: "Not the kind of betrayal that attacks you, but the kind that sides with humans??"

She furrowed her eyebrows, pondering, seeming a bit puzzled.

After thinking, she said, "Maybe there was a problem with some adjustment, bring their corpses back, I will study it."

Yue Guang got angry.

He felt like this woman wasn’t listening to him at all!

Leaning in, he growled.

"Study? My people are dead, and you’re still thinking about studying!"

The matchmaker smiled, pointing her finger upward.

"So what do you want to do? If you have complaints, speak to the higher-ups, yelling at me is useless. If they think I deserve to be punished, I won’t resist."

"You!"

"Alright, if there’s nothing else, you better leave soon. Lord Lan will be attending the next meeting, don’t miss it."

Lord Lan...

Yue Guang felt a heaviness in his heart.

That was the matchmaker’s backer.

Yue Guang calmed down.

Staring hard at the matchmaker for a while, he then said.

"Let’s go!"

After Yue Guang and his party left, the matchmaker furrowed her brows and gently tapped on the table, as if thinking about something.

"Betraying to humans, that should have had nothing to do with my demon transformation."

"Cat Demon and Pig Demon, the amount of Spirit Powder mixed in their brains was quite minimal, and their compatibility was far from enough."

"Not like Hidden Light Demon, which could even draw out a faint power of [Spirit]."

"Unfortunately, that level was already the limit for Hidden Light Demon."

"I heard it was pulled in by Shuang Xuyao as a sacrificial pawn in a plan a few days ago."

"I didn’t even know about this. I found out from other demons later."

"These demons mixed with [Spirit Powder], after their brains broke down, they occasionally went mad, really getting out of control."

"Definitely, better materials are needed."

"Sure enough, humans have the highest compatibility with [Spirit Powder]."

"Maybe, it’s time to bring back those short-term workers I screened before."

"Those are all prime experimental materials."

The matchmaker pulled out a piece of paper from the table, listing the names of the short-term workers.

On it, shockingly, were the three characters Diao Ruru.
