Chapter 346: Chapter 195: Gift of 10 Swords_7

"Because Believers can gain strength by killing us demons."

"We can choose to flee, confront, or... study in the face of natural enemies!"

"That’s why we must ponder over spirits, study them, and even acquire their powers in order to truly rise up."

"Do you understand?"

In a large mansion, Li Shidao, speaking to a youth sitting across from him sipping tea, explained earnestly.

The magnetic voice, emotive in its cadences, seemed to recite a poem, though what he held in his hand was a blue, crumpled piece of paper—if one observed carefully, it appeared to bear the creases of a kind of Thousand Paper Cranes.

As Li Shidao finished the last few words, the blue paper quickly disintegrated and vanished from his hands.

Then, he walked over and sat down in front of Fang Yu, snatched the teacup still at Fang Yu’s lips, and emptied it in one gulp.

"That’s mine..."

Fang Yu stopped speaking because Li Shidao was already smiling at him.

"Did you understand what I just said?"

Fang Yu shook his head.

"No, I didn’t!"

With righteous indignation.

Li Shidao couldn’t help but laugh.

"Neither did I,"

he paused before continuing.

"Lord Lan is the one who truly has great aspirations, researching both spirits and the future of demons."

"I made a point of asking Lord Lan to leave this note to give you another chance to read it, to let you bask in such lofty aspirations. Sooner or later, we are bound to reach those heights!"

Li Shidao said this with conviction as if filled with hope for the future.

"I don’t know about heights and all that. All I know is that you nearly scared me to death. When such an important figure suddenly appeared, I thought there was really going to be trouble."

Li Shidao winked at him.

"Weren’t you cooperating perfectly? Before I even entered, I heard the good news that you had become a Yangshen Hall disciple. It seems my ’death’ really elevated you!"

"Stop it, Brother Qing, your feigned death almost scared my spirit away, it was too reckless!"

Upon hearing Fang Yu say this, Green Demon’s expression turned serious as he intently gazed into Fang Yu’s eyes and earnestly said,

"Thank you for that night!"

Green Demon’s formality made Fang Yu feel a bit embarrassed.

"Brother Qing, do we need to thank each other back and forth? Brotherhood is in the heart!"

Fang Yu patted his chest.

Green Demon was startled, then burst into hearty laughter.

"Right! Brotherhood is in the heart!"

He mimicked Fang Yu’s gesture, patting his own chest.

To be honest, Green Demon was truly happy.

After changing his appearance, everyone around him was a stranger, and everything had to be reestablished from scratch.

Although under Shu Bird Demon’s command, no one dared rebel, it was obvious that some lower-level demons were dissatisfied with his sudden arrival and leadership.

Having no alternative after his feigned death, he was severely weakened and was currently in a stage of recuperation.

However, the resources of the Li Family were indeed substantial.

Previously in the Foolish Underworld, with no backing, he had to struggle on his own. To enhance his strength, he worked tirelessly day and night, achieving only modest gains.

Upon arriving at the Li Family, various trials began, and a host of people rushed to offer their heads, with Great Demons supporting the cause, equivalent to being spoon-fed, his strength soared rapidly.

Of course, he never forgot his brothers suffering back in the Foolish Underworld.

"Blood Demon, shed your human skin and come to the Li Family. You can trust Shu Bird Demon; he essentially controls the direction of the Li Family. Here, we can grow safely without the daily fears we had in the Foolish Underworld."

"Moreover, I can allocate some strong demons as your personal guard, to protect you daily. With them by your side, I can rest much more at ease."

"You are too weak, the Foolish Underworld is not suitable for you."

Green Demon held Fang Yu’s hand, his eyes sincere as he spoke.

To tell the truth, if Fang Yu truly were a demon, with emotions running this high, he would surely have agreed to anything by now.

But the problem is, he’s not a demon, he doesn’t have the whole shedding skin thing.

That promise would be an outright death wish.

Fang Yu ’pondered’ for a moment, then looked up at the Green Demon and slowly shook his head.

"Brother Qing, you’ve heard what Zhuo Xueer said. It wasn’t easy for me to climb into the Yangshen Hall, and now to give up this human skin... the cost is too high. Whether it’s for the great plans of those above or for your safety, I must stay put in the Yangshen Hall!"

"My safety?"

The Green Demon couldn’t help but be astonished.

"That Zhuo Xueer has gone to find a Hall Master, who must be really powerful, and you’ve just shed your skin and come back, you’re no match for a Hall Master. So, it’s crucial that I safely return! Plus, if there’s any news from Third Hall later on, I can notify you right away, give you the heads up."

Fang Yu clasped the Green Demon’s hand with a backhand grip, his face full of sincerity.

"Brother Qing, you should know, those demon comrades left over from the foolish Underworld, they are all useless, incapable of handling big things. Only I can step up to the plate! Also, I suppose you haven’t discussed this matter with Lord Shu Bird Demon or Lord Lan yet? If those above know I’ve made it into the Yangshen Hall, but gave up because of you, they will surely blame you."

"I’m not afraid!"

The Green Demon immediately shouted with stubborn pride.

Fang Yu gave him a look, and after holding out for a few seconds, the Green Demon couldn’t help but sigh in resignation.

"I’ve talked about this with Shu Bird Demon, he initially agreed. But just a minute ago, after he found out you’ve entered the Yangshen Hall, he changed his mind, asked me not to act recklessly."

"You see."

Fang Yu spread his hands.

In the demon ranks, perhaps no demon has ever infiltrated to such high a level.

The higher the Great Demon, the disciple of Yangshen Hall, the more valuable their position is.

This will surely be of great help to the grand scheme.

The Green Demon was somewhat angry.

"I finally took refuge under Shu Bird Demon, and I can’t even move someone to help me?"

Fang Yu consoled him.

"Brother Qing, don’t say things in anger. You go up, and I’ll go up too. Let’s climb to the top together, and we’ll meet at the pinnacle!"

At the pinnacle, meet each other!

A light flashed in the Green Demon’s eyes.

"With merit, you rise to become one of the Third Hall, the chief of the Third Hall. I’ll become one of the Great Demons, and when we join forces, we’ll scare those human old farts to death! Hahahaha!"

Thinking of that scene, the Green Demon couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

Perhaps it was the change of environment.

Or maybe it was shedding that layer of skin.

Fang Yu felt that the Green Demon had become a lot more cheerful, or perhaps more free and easy.

"By the way, what do you plan to do with Li Baizhen?"

Fang Yu suddenly asked.

"I don’t know; handed him over to Li Pincheng."

"Who?"

Fang Yu was a bit confused; there were too many names in the Li Family, and he found it confusing.

"One of the participants in the Li Family’s trial. It was under the pretense of recruiting him that I went to the Foolish Underworld to capture people, and so I had the chance to naturally come into contact with you. Otherwise, this skin I’m in now isn’t convenient to get around in."

So that’s how it was.

I see.

Out of nowhere comes such a big figure; it feels like he’s not even in the same class, one of those parachuted in sorts.

With Li Pincheng and Li Baizhen as an excuse, it might indeed fool the outsiders.

Fang Yu thought for a while and then said.

"Is there a way to spare Li Baizhen’s life? His existence can deepen the authenticity and persuasiveness of this human skin of mine."

The Green Demon seemed surprised.

"Seeing how you took action earlier, I thought once you recognized me, you couldn’t hold back against that human and were about to kill him on the spot."

Fang Yu said helplessly, "At that time, I did have that idea, working with humans, that kind of pressure building up, it’s like wanting to kill all humans! But now my head is clear, and I realize that it’s not time for Li Baizhen to die yet."
