Chapter 1123: Demons’ Arrival On the B4 floor, Zhang Fei [5], assisted by Luo Yunxiao, Sima Huiqing, and Yan Jinwu, searched the entire area. "Why are you four so busy?" Cheng Mengyao asked her question while she and Bing Xingying were coming down from the B3 floor. Zhang Fei [5] turned to them and spoke to Bing Xingying. "Sister-in-law, please try using your void abilities to check the entire area of this temple; I’m sure there’s something hidden here." "Alright." Bing Xingying closed her eyes, and her real body in the Void quickly moved towards their location, checking the area from inside the void. A while later, she informed Zhang Fei [5]. "Brother-in-law, I didn’t find anything hidden in this entire temple area, so I think your guess is wrong." "That’s weird." Zhang Fei [5] looked at the two map fragments in his hand and thought that his guess was wrong. However, he firmly believed that the system would never give him useless items, as he got one of them from the quest reward. "Perhaps I should find the remaining four map fragments first and put them together to find out the truth." "I think so." Luo Yunxiao nodded in agreement. "But where should we find the remaining four?" Yan Jinwu asked him. "Son." Zhang Fei [5] and the others turned to Luo Fenghan and Beiming Youhuang, who had just arrived. "The natives just spread the announcement that the mysterious merchant will appear in a week, and the auction will start three days later. If you want to look for those four map fragments, you might be able to search through both of them. However, you need the spirit merchant token to buy items from the mysterious merchant, and you can’t use someone else’s. As for the auction token, Youhuang and I have one, so you don’t need to think about that." "Isn’t that merchant too strict, Senior Luo?" Sima Huiqing asked. Luo Fenghan nodded at her. "To tell you the truth, no one knows the identity and origins of the mysterious merchant, and he comes and goes like a ghost. The Golden Dragon Emperor has tried to track him down, but he has never managed to find any information about him. Moreover, all the items sold by the mysterious merchant are truly unusual, and most of them don’t exist in this Paradise Realm, which makes us all think there are other realms besides this one." "Other realms do exist." Luo Fenghan and the others looked at Zhang Fei [5] in shock, except for Bing Xingying. "Actually, I don’t have solid proof of their existence, but an acquaintance of mine once indicated it. Feng Yao also once let slip about other realms, but she wasn’t willing to reveal the truth to me. Besides, it was clear that there were two beings who didn’t live in this realm, and they lived in another realm." "What two creatures do you mean?" Beiming Youhuang asked. "The Primordial Genesis Beast and the Primordial Nihility Beast. Without me having to explain them in detail, you should be able to guess what kind of beasts they are, right?" Beiming Youhuang nodded to Zhang Fei. "Even Taotie and the three evil mythical beasts feared them, and they chose to become subordinates of the Primordial Nihility Beast. The only beast that could match the two primordial beasts was the ten-tailed fox, but the old fox had long since died by sacrificing himself for something unclear, and he split himself into Tian Baixing and Tian Baitian." Beiming Youhuang naturally knew about it. "The ten-tailed fox has been dead for a long time, but he has already chosen his successor, and you are the one." "Eh?" Only Cheng Mengyao was surprised to hear that. "Are you really the successor of the ten-tailed fox, brother-in-law? Why can’t I feel any beast aura from you?" Zhang Fei [5] immediately transformed into his half-fox form, with nine tails dancing behind him, making Cheng Mengyao’s eyes sparkle like stars. He hurriedly returned to his human form, causing her to purse her lips. "By the way, where are the people from the Moonlit Passion Temple?" "They went to the area behind the temple to inspect it, especially since there are many other ruins behind there," Luo Fenghan answered him. Luo Yunxiao smiled mischievously, ran to her father’s side, and hugged his arm. "Father, tell me the truth, have you ever had a relationship with Qing Qiu’er? Why were you stunned and acting awkward when you two met a few days ago?" Hearing that, Cheng Mengyao and Bing Xingying also looked at their father-in-law, leaving Luo Fenghan smiling awkwardly. Luo Fenghan released a soft sigh. "I don’t have any relationship with Qing Qiu’er, and I was already engaged to your mother when I first met her in the past. However, I was once affected by her abilities, which made me keep thinking about her for quite some time. Your mother became aware of this matter and went to the Moonlit Passion Temple to confront her, and they were engaged in a fierce battle for several days with no winner. Qiu’er eventually gave her the cure, but your mother hated her and her sect since then. That’s why she strictly forbade Zhang Fei from joining that sect, and she will be furious if he joins there." "Hahaha!" Luo Yunxiao burst out laughing after Luo Fenghan finished explaining everything; even Cheng Mengyao and Bing Xingying couldn’t hold back their laughter. Then, she asked him another question. "Have you ever done anything with Qing Qiu’er, Father?" "Your father is a loyal man, unlike your husband, okay?" Luo Fenghan glared at his daughter. "Qing Qiu’er’s abilities affected me, but I managed to resist their effects. I never did anything with her, and I only thought about her until I drank the antidote." Beiming Youhuang decided to join their conversation. "Your mother was an overly jealous woman, and she was even jealous of me when we first met, remember? So, there’s no way your father would dare do anything with Qing Qiu’er, and your mother would beat him to death if he dared to do such things with her." "Pfft! Hahaha." Luo Yunxiao, Cheng Mengyao, and Bing Xingying laughed after hearing that. "You are right, master. My mother is the most jealous and possessive woman regarding my father, and she will chase away any woman who dares to come close to him." "Stop talking about your mother." Luo Yunxiao stuck out her tongue at Luo Fenghan, who immediately told Zhang Fei [5]. "If you want to get the merchant token, you just need to complete some tests from him, and he will give it to you as a reward." Zhang Fei [5] immediately took out the golden token and the golden auction token that he obtained after completing the quest to open his shop in the Yun and Bai Kingdoms of the Nine Stars Realm, surprising Luo Fenghan and Beiming Youhuang. "Honestly, I got both of them a long time ago, but I didn’t expect to have the opportunity to use them soon. At first, I thought I would need hundreds or maybe thousands of years to be able to use both of them, but here I am now." "Where did you get them?" "The Star Tower, of course." Zhang Fei [5] immediately saved the two items and the two map fragments. "We’ll have some guests coming soon." "Guests?" "Those demons and some acquaintances." Zhang Fei [5] then led them to the first floor. Feng Yao and Huo Ling, who were previously on the B5 floor, hurriedly followed them after they sensed the movement of those demons. . . . Shortly after they exited the temple, thousands of demons arrived in the air above them. The demons fiercely stared at them, but none of them dared to touch Huo Ling’s flame sphere. *Swoosh... Swoosh...* Soon, many people from the winged and beast races also arrived outside the flame sphere. Huo Ling glanced at the two groups before opening her flame sphere slightly, allowing them to enter. "What have you done to those demons? Why are they so eager to kill you all?" Tianshi Shengjie questioned Zhang Fei [5]. The people of the winged and beast races turned their attention to Zhang Fei [5], but some of them seemed to underestimate him because of his low cultivation, especially Long Youjia. ’Is he really the successor of the ten-tailed fox? I can feel the beast aura from his body, but it’s too faint.’ "Do you think I like to look for trouble with others? You were the one who deliberately pitted me against those natural races in the past, remember?" Tianshi Shengjie’s lips curled upwards as soon as Zhang Fei [5] brought up the matter. "These demons previously looted the remaining materials in this temple, so Huo Ling killed them all, and here they are now to avenge the deaths of their subordinates." Tianshi Shengjie and Tian Huangjin turned to Huo Ling, who was standing indifferently. ’Is she really the Eternal Flame?’ "Zhang Fei." Feng Yao pointed at one of the demons. "That demon is a member of the Asura Demon Race, and that demon race is a war demon who possesses formidable combat abilities. Therefore, I want you to fight and defeat him, and we will take care of the rest." Tian Shuixiang and Ye Zhiye naturally recognized the members of their two races, but they were unable to recognize them thanks to their disguise. Zhang Fei [5] looked at the male demon. "He’s stronger than me, but there’s no harm in trying to fight him." - To Be Continued -
