Chapter 446 I Won’t Tell

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

When Li Ye broke into the Star Pavilion, the demon bear, who was drinking with the shopkeeper of the Star Pavilion, didn’t fight together with the demon tiger.

The demon bear was the Lord of Panfeng City. He thought if he fought against Li Ye, all the demons would know that the Macaque King was aiming at Li Ye.

Because he wanted to disassociate himself from this matter, he asked the demon tiger, who had a good relationship with him, to deal with Li Ye with his personal forces. He also found a good reason to cover it up. They coveted Li Ye’s Magic Treasure.

When the demon bear saw Li Ye, he felt surprised at first. He didn’t understand how Li Ye managed to escape from the siege of the six masters in the Sky Immortal Realm and how he found the Star Pavilion. Moreover, he was so arrogant that he killed any demon he saw.

Li Ye’s overbearing behavior made the demon bear feel guilty, so his first thought was to avoid suspicion for fear that the other demons would find him in the Star Pavilion. Before the demon tiger showed up, the demon bear left the Star Pavilion and ran far away. Instead of leaving, he watched the battle on the side.

This was also the reason why the demon tiger didn’t appear for the first time. The two of them talked for a long time.

But at that time, the demon bear didn’t expect that the demon tiger would be no match for Li Ye.

The two sides went all out to fight recklessly. There was nothing wrong with this tactic, and It was also the quickest and most efficient way to win.

When the demon tiger fell, the demon bear didn’t react for a long time.

Li Ye was also injured at that time. If the demon bear took action, he could surely kill Li Ye, but he couldn’t. Although there were very few demons on the street at that time, there were still some. The noise in the Star Pavilion attracted a lot of demons to watch.

All that time, the demon bear didn’t show up, and he went straight back to the City Lord’s Mansion. Then, he shut himself up in the room and puzzled over what to do.

Since the matter was screwed up, he was so worried that he was scratching his hair and squatting in front of the big chair, sighing.

The demon clan was neither good at scheming nor resourceful, especially the demon bear. He was used to being straightforward in everything and solving problems with his fists. It was very difficult for him to come up with such a plan to deal with Li Ye.

Now that the plan failed and Li Ye also destroyed the Star Pavilion, the demon bear was afraid that Li Ye would be aware of something and would make trouble for him. He was not afraid that Li Ye would do something to him but that Li Ye would know that he and the Macaque King ordered the Star Pavilion to plot against him. Moreover, he was worried about the compensation to the Star Pavilion.

The Star Pavilion would surely find out the plan between him and the demon tiger. Many Great Cultivators in the Star Pavilion died, and Li Ye took away all the Magic Treasures and Dan Pills as well. If he had to make compensation, he would lose all his wealth, even though he was the Lord of Panfeng City.

In addition, he screwed up the task told by the Macaque King, so he would definitely be blamed and it was very likely that he would lose his position as the Lord.

The demon bear was so worried that he was on the verge of going crazy now.

Fortunately, as the Lord of Panfeng City, the demon bear had his advisor. He already asked him to come and discuss the matter. When he was getting impatient, a demon dhole dressed as a scholar arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion.

When the demon bear saw him coming, he quickly rushed over, like seeing a lifesaver. Grabbing the other side’s shoulder, he asked, “Why did you come so late?” Because he was very anxious, he used too much strength in his hand, which made the demon dhole twitch his mouth.

The demon bear had no time to care about the demon dhole’s feelings. As if he hadn’t seen his reaction, he asked hurriedly, “The demon tiger has been killed, the Star Pavilion has been robbed by Li Ye, and our plan has been exposed. What should we do? What shall I do if the Macaque King blames me?”

The demon dhole managed to break free from the demon bear’s claw. While rubbing his shoulder, he said, “I’ve got the details. Lord, don’t panic. Let’s talk about it slowly.” Actually, it was his idea to let the demon tiger deal with Li Ye by using the cultivators in the Star Pavilion.

The demon bear was very anxious. “It’s urgent now, so we can’t talk about it slowly. Tell me what to do right now! Previously, you told me that the plan was perfect and that Li Ye would definitely be killed without being noticed by the other demons. But it’s all over now! If I’m blamed by the Macaque King, I will tear you up first!”

The demon dhole sighed with a bitter expression. Actually, he was very surprised. “Who would know that Li Ye would have such an outstanding fighting ability?! Even six cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm couldn’t kill him but were killed by him… Furthermore, besides the Roc Demon King’s son, a few demons appeared in the Star Pavilion with him. We don’t know who they are, and it’s very likely that many things are unknown in it. If we take action rashly, I’m afraid that we’ll only end up with a bad outcome…”

Seeing the demon dhole starting a long speech, the demon bear could no longer control his temper. Staring at the demon dhole with red eyes, he roared angrily, “I’ll eat you now if you continue to talk nonsense! Just tell me what to do!”

“You personally come forward and catch Li Ye and the others!” The demon dhole’s words surprised the demon bear.

The demon bear was a little stunned, and then he became angrier. He couldn’t help roaring, “You want me to kill Li Ye directly? Why don’t you just let me die?”

As the demon bear was going to lose his head, the demon dhole quickly replied, “Not to kill them, but to put them in jail, accusing them of making trouble in the Star Pavilion and killing more than 20 demons! You are the Lord and you are responsible for the order in the city. Now that they have made such big trouble in Panfeng City, you can take action directly with no scruple. If they resist, you can kill them immediately!”

In the end, the demon dhole’s eyes appeared fierce.

The demon bear pondered. A long time later, he finally understood. “But he’s Prince An of the Tang Empire, and the Seven Sages allow him to enter our territory. If he shows us his identity, can we still take action?”

“Why not?” the demon dhole said with confidence, “The Seven Sages only allow Li Ye to enter our territory. What he is here for is beyond our reach, but no one allows him to kill demons at will! Doesn’t he need to pay for killing demons? What’s more, he has killed more than 20 demons and robbed many Magic Treasures and Dan Pills. Isn’t he guilty of murder and robbery? No matter where he is, he should be arrested and killed for such a crime!”

The more the demon dhole said, the fiercer his eyes became. In the end, his eyes were already scarlet.

“Let’s do it! Wait… Li Ye killed the demons because the Star Pavilion made trouble for him first, didn’t he? Although he killed many demons, he was acting in self-defense. Although he robbed them of their treasures, he did it for a reason. We can’t explain why we make the decision to kill him, can we?”

The demon dhole sneered. “Who will know it? If Li Ye is dead and we don’t tell, who else will know it? Will you tell all the demons the truth?”

“Of course I won’!”

…

After the sparrow took the Dan Pills, it was so full that its belly was exposed under its hair. It opened its two small legs and lay there contentedly with its eyes narrowed.

After Li Ye packed the Dan Pills in batches and prepared to distribute them to Wu You and the demons, he heard the sparrow burping loudly. He couldn’t help laughing. “So you’re a female sparrow?”

The sparrow was a little stunned and thought that there was something wrong with the Dan Pills. It was so scared that its eyeballs almost fell out. It hurriedly looked down at its legs. However, it couldn’t see anything because its big belly blocked its view. It twisted its body and its neck in a panic. After struggling for a long time, it finally saw its own gender characteristics.

The sparrow breathed a sigh of relief after it confirmed that its thing didn’t change. Then it looked at Li Ye in confusion.

Li Ye smiled and didn’t say anything. That was just a joke. Its belly was as full as if it was pregnant.

Without mentioning this, Li Ye had something else to say to the sparrow. He asked, “You’ve taken the Dan Pills. Now tell me who you are.”

The sparrow stood up seriously and wanted to answer the question earnestly. However, its belly was so big that it directly pressed against the table. Its short legs couldn’t stand up at all, and it directly fell on its back.

Li Ye couldn’t help laughing. “Lie down and tell me.”

The sparrow’s two legs struggled in the air for a while, and it finally rolled over. It no longer tried to stand up. It sat on the table and thought for a moment. Then it said seriously, “They told me that when I opened my spiritual intelligence and changed from a wild sparrow into a demon sparrow, it was the day of the Awakening of Insects. At that time, I was ignorant and I didn’t know what the Awakening of Insects was. I only remembered that there was a peach tree outside the nest. The flowers were particularly beautiful…”

Li Ye didn’t know what to say.

The sparrow wanted to learn from the innkeeper, but it suddenly forgot the rest at this point.

“Be serious,” said Li Ye.

Scratching its head with its wings, it said awkwardly, “In fact, I’m indeed a wild demon. Previously, I stole the Dan Pills from the demon tiger of Star Pavilion and ate them, but I couldn’t escape, so he caught me. He originally wanted to kill me, but I was clever and useful, so he didn’t kill me…This happened half a month ago.”

Li Ye asked, “Have you heard why the demon tiger wanted to make trouble for me?”

The sparrow said honestly, “I don’t know. He only told me that he wanted your Magic Treasure and asked me to spy on you… He didn’t tell the details.”

At this point, the sparrow thought carefully for a moment and added, “However, in the past two days, I saw the Lord of Panfeng City visit the Star Pavilion and find the demon tiger several times.”

“The Lord?” Li Ye thought for a while and soon understood the whole thing.

This was the Macaque King’s territory, so the Lord of Panfeng City was naturally his man. The Macaque King wanted to deal with him, but he couldn’t do it personally. After the Lord of Panfeng City took the order, he couldn’t do it personally, either. Thus, he went to the Star Pavilion and found the demon tiger.

It was not a hard guess, and it was pretty close.

“It is nearly dawn, and the city gate should open. We’d better leave quickly! The demon bear, the Lord, won’t let us go easily. If we continue to stay in the city, we can’t run away… There is a magic formation for the air forbiddance in the city, and it can be opened at any time!” The sparrow played its role and began to advise Li Ye.

Li Ye suddenly smiled. “We won’t leave. Let’s go to the City Lord’s Mansion!”

The sparrow was scared with bristling hair. It stood up but rolled over on its back quickly. It struggled and shouted, “Are you going to die?”

“That’s settled.” Li Ye didn’t want to talk too much with the sparrow.

When he went out, he happened to meet Wu You. She walked past the door with her hands clasped behind her back, looking as if she was just passing by and didn’t see Li Ye. It confused Li Ye a little.

When he was about to say something, the innkeeper, along with the demon wolf and the demon jackal, came with the prepared meal.
