Chapter 817: Chapter 813: Choices

The Eldest Prince Li Cunren said, ”Mr. Zhou, you lead the way.”

Zhou Tianhua responded, then drifted to the right.

Their group quickly stopped at the peak of a mountain, overlooking the surrounding several miles.

The mountaintop was shrouded in a bamboo forest, where the only sound was the gentle rustling.

A gust of wind blew, stirring waves of green.

Chu Zhiyuan and his companions blended into the bamboo tips, swaying with the green bamboo in the wind.

They looked far into the distance.

The situation within several miles was completely visible.

A group of mystic-robed men were shuttling through the distant forest, their robes fleetingly visible among the branches and leaves.

Li Cunren said softly, ”Their Qinggong is not bad but nothing special.”

Chu Zhiyuan pondered.

Under Super Sense, the external and internal aspects of the eighteen people opposite were completely revealed to him.

There were a total of four strong individuals.

Two Venerables showed their appearance, while the other two experts concealed theirs, indistinguishable from the others.

Yet, their bodies contained strange power, deep and pure, like an abyss or ocean.

Upon viewing these two, he felt inexplicable palpitations, and his Super Sense immediately shifted away.

Suddenly, he used Sound Transmission into Secret, his voice booming in everyone’s ears, ”Get down!”

”Hmm—?” Li Cunren and the others looked over.

Chu Zhiyuan descended smoothly, his lips moving, ”Quickly come down.”

Fu Zheng gracefully descended.

Li Cunren hesitated slightly but then also descended.

Zhou Tianhua and the others followed suit.

...

Two elderly figures suddenly stopped walking.

The sixteen mystic-robed middle-aged individuals swiftly halted, returning to their side.

The two elders exchanged glances, then suddenly leaped onto the tree tips, looking around.

Chu Zhiyuan crouched low, hidden beneath the roots of the green bamboo, motionless.

Li Cunren came to his side, mirroring his actions: ”What’s happening?”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”They’ve detected our spying.”

Li Cunren was somewhat skeptical: ”This sharp?”

Chu Zhiyuan replied, ”The instincts of the Demon Clan and Demon Clan are more formidable than ours.”

...

The two mystic-robed elders looked around, then shook their heads, drifting down from the trees to continue their swift journey.

The other sixteen mystic-robed middle-aged individuals followed, once again shuttling through the forest.

Chu Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, straightening up, ”We’ve avoided detection.”

The others also stood, brushing off the dry bamboo leaves from their robe corners.

Zhou Tianhua lowered his voice, ”Prince Consort, have you been to the Outer Realm Battlefield?”

”I’d like to go, but unfortunately, I’ve not had the fortune.” Chu Zhiyuan replied.

Zhou Tianhua asked, ”Then have you faced the Demon Clan and Demon Clan?”

”I’ve had quite some encounters.”

Li Cunren chuckled, ”Mr. Zhou, at least a hundred Demon Clan have perished at my brother-in-law’s hand, and if not a hundred, then at least dozens from the Demon Clan.”

”...My apologies.” Zhou Tianhua exclaimed in surprise.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and shook his head, ”Luck played a part, but everyone helped.”

Zhou Tianhua clearly had not done a thorough background check before arriving, only having a rough idea.

Zhou Tianhua’s cultivation is high; in his eyes, he only sees Chu Zhiyuan as an ordinary Prince Consort, not worth the energy to focus on.

However, it’s understandable that at Zhou Tianhua’s age and status, paying less attention to others is expected.

Zhou Tianhua said, ”I’ve never figured out what peculiarities they have.”

Chu Zhiyuan stated, ”Those two elders are peculiar, possessing Abnormal Power.”

”Elders...” Zhou Tianhua recalled.

Moments later, he frowned, ”These two elders don’t have deep cultivation.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Their Realm is not high, but the cultivation power they possess is odd and extremely terrifying.”

Zhou Tianhua pondered, ”If that’s the case, they might be practicing the Totem Path.”

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him curiously.

Li Cunren said, ”As expected of Mr. Zhou, knowing the Totem Path which is rare in the world, a secret of the Demon Clan.”

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”The origin of the Mighty Power on them?”

”The highest in Demon Clan isn’t a Demon Venerable but a Demon God.” Zhou Tianhua said gravely, ”Comparable to our Spirit Venerable.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Zhou Tianhua said, ”The difference between Demon God and Spirit Venerable is that they can attach power to the younger generation, called Divine Descent.”

”Spirit Venerable cannot do this?”

”Our bodies are too weak; even with specific Body Refining Techniques, we can’t bear the power of Spirit Venerable.”

”How about the Demon Clan?”

”Demon God can also achieve Demon Arrival.” Zhou Tianhua stated, ”This is what makes them terrifying.”

Chu Zhiyuan frowned, ”Doesn’t this mean we humans have no way to survive?”

”We humans have Treasures for protection.” Zhou Tianhua said, ”Able to isolate Demon Arrival and Divine Descent, moreover both require a huge price.”

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”As long as we’re in the Imperial City, we aren’t afraid of Demon Arrival and Divine Descent?”

”Exactly.”

”What about other places?”

”Nine cities are under the protection of Treasures.”

”Which nine cities?”

Zhou Tianhua smiled, ”That’s a secret, even I don’t know.”

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Li Cunren.

Li Cunren shook his head, ”I only know of the Imperial City, and not of other places.”

Chu Zhiyuan pondered.

What exactly are these Treasures? Why hasn’t his Super Sense detected them?

Li Cunren said, ”I know these Treasures exist, but I don’t know what they are, only Father knows.”

Zhou Tianhua nodded, ”The Palace Master might know as well; others do not.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Fortunately, fortunately, ... came here to deal with me or my wife?”

Li Cunren said, ”Probably want to eliminate the two of you, two came, each one for you.”

Zhou Tianhua said slowly, ”After Divine Descent, cultivation is sacrificed and needs to recommence; two Divine Descent practitioners likely came to deal with two people.”

Li Cunren said, ”Luckily we avoided them, ... brother-in-law, I’ve changed my mind.”

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him.

Li Cunren said solemnly, ”Let’s abort the hunting plan.”

Zhou Tianhua agreed, ”Your Highness is wise.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Avoiding them is enough; might really draw out Demon Clan experts.”

With his sensing ability, once they come this way, he can detect them and evade them ahead of time.

”You are truly bold...” Li Cunren remarked, ”Let’s quickly return!”

In such a situation, it’s imperative to retreat to the city, and not linger outside.

If encountered with Divine Descent, truly risking one’s life.

”We should quickly return!” Zhou Tianhua said solemnly.

Meng Enjun suddenly spoke, ”Master, maybe we’re mistaken.”

Zhou Tianhua frowned at him.

Meng Enjun said hesitantly, ”Maybe the Demon Clan hasn’t dispatched Divine Descent experts.”

Fu Zheng retorted impatiently, ”How could Your Highness be wrong!”

Zhou Tianhua waved his hand to stop Meng Enjun’s next words, addressing Li Cunren, ”Your Highness, shouldn’t we inform them promptly?”

Li Cunren said, ”Don’t worry, Mr. Zhou, they are on their way back.”

They have already received the signal to return.

During this period, even if encountering Demon Clan experts, they wouldn’t rashly take action.

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly said, ”Brother, any movements from the Demon Clan?”

Li Cunren was momentarily stunned, taking out the Demon Extinguishing Pearl, his expression changing slightly, ”There’s activity!”

Chu Zhiyuan’s Super Sense saw eight Demon Clan experts darting through a forest twenty miles away, silently.

Their dark green garments were motionless, not disturbing the wild grass and branches as they passed.

Such swift movement techniques not generating even a breeze is indeed peculiar.

Even without the Haoyang Demon-suppressing Mirror, just by their movement techniques, it’s clear they are Demon Clan experts.

”Truly coincidental!” Li Cunren gritted through his teeth.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Shall we eliminate these Demon Clan experts before returning to the city?”

Li Cunren pondered.

Zhou Tianhua maintained a stern expression.

Meng Enjun was eager, his eyes gleaming, eliciting disdainful looks from Fu Zheng.

”Return to the city!” Li Cunren gritted his teeth, ”Life is a priority!”

”Your Highness is wise.” Zhou Tianhua clasped his fists.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Are we really going back immediately?”

”Let’s go!” Li Cunren huffed, ”We’ll find another opportunity next time!”
