Chapter 69

The wind blew fiercely.

Just a moment ago, it was still the bone-chilling wind of the coldest winter.

But the next moment, it blew with incredible gentleness.

While marveling at the strength of the Great Marsh Demon Commander, Yang Qifeng's heart also filled with joy.

In his heart, he lavishly praised the tiger-headed demon. The emergence of the tiger-headed demon had vented the Great Marsh Demon Commander's anger, making Yang Qifeng much safer.

Wolves are naturally suspicious, and this time the open scheme seemed like a sure death trap.

But Yang Qifeng stayed because he saw a way out.

The fake mountain god had a deep understanding of the Great Marsh Demon Commander's character, knowing that at this moment, Yang Qifeng would be unable to defend himself, and in a fit of anger, would definitely vent his frustration.

From Yang Qifeng's perspective, this world seemed beautiful but was actually filled with hidden dangers.

Beneath every beautiful facade lay peril.

In "Journey to the West," under the beautiful aspirations of myths and legends, lay piles of bones. The deaths of one demon after another had made the Journey to the West team.

This world also had order, but it was extremely broad. Killing was not illegal.

For the Great Marsh Demon Commander to kill Yang Qifeng was a normal thing, and no one would say anything.

A significant reason for this was that Yang Qifeng's foundation was shallow. In the Great Marsh Mountains, few demons recognized him, and they did not consider him one of their own, unlike the tiger-headed demon, who was seen as a scapegoat.

But the Great Marsh Demon Commander was very measured in his actions and would not kill him.

Watching the tiger-headed demon swallow a pill, a green light appeared on his body. His originally pale face began to show a hint of redness. Although his broken arm was not fully healed, he was much better off than he was a moment ago, when he was half-dead.

What a good guy, Yang Qifeng gave the tiger-headed demon a "good person card."

With a humble and respectful attitude, he said, "I was originally the commander of the 29th Mountain. Since the death of the demon general, I have temporarily taken charge of the 29th Mountain."

Yang Qifeng's attitude towards the Great Marsh Demon Commander was that of a subordinate towards a boss, a posture he had used for over twenty years in his previous life.

He was extremely proficient and could do it effortlessly.

Speaking of this, it must be said that his fate was truly tragic. In his previous life, he had finally made it, but soon it was over, and he was reborn into this world.

"The 29th Mountain," the Great Marsh Demon Commander looked at Yang Qifeng, his wolf eyes piercing, staring at Yang Qifeng's entire body as if trying to see every corner of him clearly.

Yang Qifeng tried to suppress his blood qi, lowering his head in fear and respect, and said, "Yes."

The Great Marsh Demon Commander's gaze was too sharp, making Yang Qifeng feel uneasy. Even though he was confident in his Thirty-Six Transformations and his increased cultivation, he was not worried about the Great Marsh Demon Commander seeing through him.

Not being worried was one thing, but with the Great Marsh Demon Commander's gaze, Yang Qifeng's confident expression became somewhat uneasy, though his outward demeanor remained unchanged. This level of composure, Yang Qifeng still had.

The Great Marsh Demon Commander retracted his piercing gaze and then looked at a crane demon general beside him.

"The demon commander is from the 29th Mountain," the crane demon general's sharp voice rang out.

"Originally one of us," the Great Marsh Demon Commander's tone softened, and his sharp gaze faded.

"Today, I will host a banquet to welcome this newly promoted brother," the Great Marsh Demon Commander said.

Yang Qifeng chuckled but did not say much.

A gust of demon wind rose, and Yang Qifeng followed the Great Marsh Demon Commander, riding the wind.

Riding the demon wind was the most basic skill for demons, something that any demon would master once their cultivation reached a certain level.

This was like a bird that must learn to fly.

It seemed that this matter had temporarily passed, but Yang Qifeng knew it was only an appearance.

His gaze was calm, but his heart was not.

The crisis had not been completely resolved.

This time, the Great Marsh Demon Commander let him go because Yang Qifeng was a local demon and there were still doubts.

But the Great Marsh Demon Commander's suspicious nature, which was the reason for Yang Qifeng's temporary safety, was also the source of his disaster.

His temporary safety meant that the Great Marsh Demon Commander would investigate Yang Qifeng.

Yang Qifeng's background, if investigated, would quickly reveal that he had advanced from the Transformation Realm to the Demon Core Realm in a short time.

This rapid increase in strength was not unusual for other demons, but for the suspicious Great Marsh Demon Commander, it would raise deep suspicions.

Damn it, Yang Qifeng cursed the fake mountain god in his heart.

He had not anticipated that the fake mountain god would use such a method to involve him.

After some thought, Yang Qifeng put aside his hatred for the fake mountain god.

This time, the Great Marsh Mountain was in a crisis, and anyone tainted by the crisis could not escape.

It was only a matter of time before he was involved.

This calmed his heart somewhat, but he needed to speed up his plans.

Yang Qifeng was not someone who would sit and wait for death. Since someone had made a move, he would also need to add his own force.

The fake mountain god had already stirred up the conflict between the Great Marsh Demon Commander and the Great Marsh Land God, and it was already showing some results.

Although the suspicious Great Marsh Demon Commander had been suppressing the situation, it was almost out of control.

Like a volcano, it was on the verge of eruption. Just a little more force, and the volcano would erupt.

Yang Qifeng's next move was to be the catalyst to directly trigger the eruption.

But after some thought, Yang Qifeng realized he did not need to.

The fake mountain god had already done everything, and the catalyst was already in place—the fake mountain god's seal.

He was not just trying to kill Yang Qifeng but also to stir up the conflict between the Great Marsh Demon Commander and the Great Marsh Land God.

The golden light, he believed, was not only seen by the Great Marsh Demon Commander but also by the Great Marsh Land God.

The Great Marsh Land God had not appeared yet, not because he was slow, but because he was preparing.

After all, the Great Marsh Demon Commander was more powerful than the Great Marsh Land God.

The return journey would not be peaceful.

"Where are you going, Demon Commander?"

"Hand over the mountain god's seal."

Yang Qifeng found himself having the potential of a jinx. Just as he was thinking about the Great Marsh Land God, he had already arrived.

Golden light appeared in the distance, and figures blocked the Great Marsh Demon Commander's path.
