Chapter 18

"Since it's great, let's start then!" The parrot no longer hesitated.

This ghost-like creature, opening its mouth to eat people, was clearly not a good thing. Since there was no intention to save it, they might as well try to revive it by any means necessary.

Opinions aligned, they immediately took action. Unable to find a whip, they used a willow branch as thick as a thumb.

The parrot and the old turtle had no hands, making it inconvenient, so Dahu came forward, clamping the branch with his hooves, took a deep breath, and fiercely lashed out at the "corpse" lying on the ground.

Smack! Smack! Smack!

His strength was immense, each strike like an axe or a knife, leaving deep marks on the body of the Great Bliss Demon.

After seven or eight consecutive strikes, it was as if he had slashed seven or eight times, the wounds were so severe that the body was almost shredded.

"Why hasn't he woken up yet?" the parrot asked.

"It must be the wrong atmosphere..."

The donkey scratched his head with another hoof, carefully recalling the scene, his eyes filled with anger. He shouted, "Get up and grind the mill! Don't pretend to be dead! You fool, you eat a lot but are useless when it matters. If you don't get up, I'll beat you to death!"

"???"

The deeply unconscious Great Bliss Demon was bewildered. What happened?

Where am I? Who am I? What am I doing?

...

In the Tranquil Immortal Sect, in a quiet room, two young men sat facing each other.

"You mean... Liu Yi might be a spy sent by another sect?"

Frowning, Liu Chang found it hard to believe.

"Liu brother, you have the chance to become a direct disciple of an elder. You must have more information than me. You should have heard about the situation in the sect!" Zhou Yuan said with a serious expression.

Liu Chang nodded.

The news of the sect leader and others' demise had already spread in a limited circle. Given his talent, it was not surprising that he knew some of the inside story.

"Given the current situation, there must be many people with ulterior motives!"

Zhou Yuan continued, "This Liu Yi, after entering the sect, didn't make much progress for three years. But in just one day, his cultivation level rose by three ranks, and his understanding of swordsmanship reached the seventh form. Don't you think that's abnormal?"

Liu Chang was stunned.

Indeed, it was abnormal.

Even the most talented among his peers couldn't achieve this.

"I think either he is a spy from another sect, and his previous clumsiness and lack of talent were just an act, or he received some benefit from another sect, which allowed him to break through." Zhou Yuan shared his thoughts.

"This..." Liu Chang fell silent.

With the sect in crisis, it was indeed easy for all sorts of people to come out. If the speculation was true, personally catching a spy would certainly earn a heavy reward from the sect.

Perhaps... his status as an elder's disciple could be confirmed. Thinking of this, he looked over and asked, "What should we do now?"

"Simple, secretly follow Liu Yi and find evidence of his betrayal. Then we can expose him at the Elder Hall!" Zhou Yuan's eyes gleamed.

"Agreed!" Liu Chang nodded.

The two quietly approached Liu Yi's residence and saw the former bottom-of-the-class disciple still practicing his sword skills. In the darkness, his arm holding the sword moved continuously, like the wings of a bird.

"This... isn't the Tranquil Immortal Thirty-Six Forms! It's not even a Tranquil Immortal Sect sword technique..." Liu Chang squinted his eyes.

Sect disciples, as long as they hadn't reached the Transformation Realm, practiced this set of sword techniques. This guy was clearly practicing something else, indicating he had another lineage.

He must be a spy!

Huff!

In shock, Liu Yi stopped nearby, his brows furrowed, as if thinking of something. He muttered to himself, "The match with Liu Chang and Zhou Yuan helped me improve a lot, but there's still one thing I don't understand... 'Not a good bird'!"

The teacher wouldn't say something without a reason. Since he said "not a good bird," there must be a purpose. Just like the flapping wings, following this method, he indeed grasped a more profound sword technique.

If so, what does this phrase mean?

"Are they insulting us?"

"It seems so..."

Liu Chang and Zhou Yuan were both red with anger.

Defeating them was one thing, but to insult them behind their backs... it was too much!

"Practicing non-Tranquil Immortal Sect sword techniques confirms he is a spy. Should we report him now..." After the anger subsided, Zhou Yuan said.

"No rush. Just one sword technique isn't enough evidence. Let's wait. If he is a spy, he will eventually contact someone from another sect. When we catch him red-handed, he won't be able to deny it."

Liu Chang squinted his eyes.

Being insulted had already crossed his底线. This time, no matter how hard it was, he would find the evidence to bring him to justice.

...

The Great Bliss Child slowly regained consciousness.

As a great demon who roamed the world, while he couldn't be reborn from a drop of blood, he could still come back to life from most severe injuries, even if his head was cut off.

Otherwise, countless powerful beings would not be at a loss, only able to seal him.

"What happened?"

As his consciousness cleared, he immediately felt an overwhelming pain, as if his spirit was being torn apart.

His divine sense turned, and his vision went dark, almost losing his breath.

I'm in such a state, and they keep beating me... is this what humans do?

Tears almost flowed, and the Great Bliss Demon wanted to cry.

According to the previous guess, seeing delicious food, even dragon meat, these creatures should immediately kneel and serve me.

Why did they attack without a word? Moreover, I'm almost dead, and they still beat me so hard... is beating a corpse so fun?

Facing that human, they could excitedly call him "master," but when I give them food, why do I get beaten? The treatment is too different!

I am a great demon feared by all, how can I be inferior to a human?

I refuse to accept this!

Clenching his teeth, he slowly opened his eyes. If he didn't, he suspected he might never see the sun rise again.

"Big Black, he seems to be awake..."

A slow voice sounded in his ear.

"Indeed, it works!" The parrot supported his beak with his wings, nodding secretly.

At first, he thought the beating was not appropriate, but now it seems to have a good effect.

In the future, there's another method to save people.

"You ask the questions!"

The donkey also sighed in relief, stopping the beating and stepping back.

This guy is too dangerous, better to stay far away.

"Okay!"

Flapping his wings, the parrot came forward and looked at the great demon lying on the ground, who no longer looked human. He asked, "Answer whatever I ask. Otherwise, I'll let Big Black continue beating you until you want to answer!"

"Yes!" The Great Bliss Demon was filled with sorrow.

Roaming for thousands of years, he had never felt so helpless.

He thought that if such a situation arose, it would be against the top-tier experts of Dagan State and Dayuan State. He never imagined it would be against a donkey, a turtle, and a parrot.

"Where did you catch that loach you brought earlier?" the parrot asked.

"Loach?"

The Great Bliss Demon was stunned, his face trembling.

You call the [Silver-Winged Green Dragon] a loach? That's a dragon!

Well, but, it's true...

Everything is decided by strength. The dragon clan is high and mighty in others' eyes, but in the eyes of true powerhouses, calling it a loach isn't a big deal.

Especially since it's a mixed-blood.

It seems these three are not only powerful but also have noble bloodlines. Otherwise, they wouldn't speak so naturally.

In an instant, the three pets appeared even more formidable in his eyes.
