Chapter 509 Meet by Chance

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Li Ye wanted to cry. Since his transmigration, he had been accompanied by many beauties. In Pinglu, he was accompanied by the Junior Priestess. In Hedong, Su Emei served him. But in the territory of the demon clan, he was alone… Actually, he was not alone, but Duchess was too young, so he could not have any evil thoughts about her… In fact, Duchess was not too young, but too naive.

However, Duchess gave him a jar of wine at the crucial moment—Li Ye had never thought that Duchess was so considerate before!

Although Duchess and he grew up together and they were very close and indispensable to each other, Duchess would not usually be so considerate. Su Emei was more tender and considerate than her… They each had different characters.

Li Ye looked at Duchess. As expected, Duchess was inexperienced. It seemed that she gave Li Ye a jar of wine not to help Li Ye relieve his loneliness, but to drink with wild meat…

Li Ye shifted his eyes from Duchess to the proprietress, who was concentrating on the barbecue. Then he saw her shoulders trembling slightly, as if she had noticed Li Ye’s gaze.

Sure enough, it was the proprietress.

The proprietress had been barbecuing the game. It seemed that she did not stop and did not even have time to eat the meat. It was also the proprietress who went to search for the game. All the wild beasts ran away after the battle on Blackstone Mountain, so it had not been that easy to find the game… The proprietress was willing to do everything without any complaint.

“Come on, have a bite.” Duchess handed the rabbit leg to the proprietress.

The proprietress peeped at Li Ye. Maybe she felt embarrassed.

Then she took a bite. Her little red mouth opened slightly as she took a bite of the barbecued meat. When her lips were covered with the shiny oil, she looked very sexy…

The proprietress blushed when she felt Li Ye’s gaze on her. Even her chewing became slighter, slower and more unnatural. She stretched out her hand and gathered up her hair to ease her awkwardness.

Then Duchess gave the proprietress a cup of wine. The proprietress quickly drained it after she took it. Then she returned the cup to Duchess. The whole procedure was done without a break in her barbecuing. As for Duchess, her eating and drinking were not affected either.

Li Ye was stunned by their harmonious relationship. “When did you two become so close?”

When they first arrived at the inn, Li Ye had been set up by the proprietress, so Duchess was angry with the proprietress. When they met the next morning, Duchess broke the proprietress’ arms with two punches and scared her away.

Duchess turned her head and looked serious. She said earnestly, “The proprietress is a good demon!”

Li Ye was speechless “A good demon? She carried you on her back all the way.”

When Li Ye and Duchess looked at each other, Miss Hong Xiu who was seated nearby, said boldly, “Your Highness, I will drink a jar of wine with you!”

Li Ye looked at the big wine jar next to his leg. He was a little uncertain, so he asked Hong Xiu who was drunk and red-faced, “Do you really want to drink a jar of wine with me?”

Miss Hong Xiu tossed her head neatly and vigorously patted the big wine jar next to her leg. She said with a heroic spirit, “What’s wrong? Don’t you dare? The wine I made is the best in Liuxi Town!”

Li Ye felt that there was nothing he did not dare to do.

“I want to drink too!” The sparrow flapped its wings and shouted, “Give me a jar of wine!”

Finally, White Wolf joined them as well.

All sides drank wine together. A group of demons fell one after another. The sparrow was the first to get drunk and laid on the ground. With its wings flapping, it said, “I can drink another ten jars of wine! If I could turn into a human, I will definitely get all of you drunk!”

Before dawn, everyone was tired and fell asleep.

Duchess, who had been using the proprietress’ thighs as a pillow, was somehow leaning on Li Ye’s shoulder. Li Ye put his arm around Duchess’ petite body and held her in his arms. He gently stroked her soft hair with one hand and stared at the starry night, lost in thought.

Duchess’s hair was tied up in two plaits, so it was not very convenient to stroke her hair, but it did not matter.

…

At dawn the next day, the campsite became lively again and the cultivators were ready to set off.

The lair of the beast tide on Blackstone Ridge had been destroyed. The immortals were killed and only a few of them escaped. Without the immortals’ control, the beast tide was nothing to be afraid of. When they went out, they could kill some fierce beasts and collect their bodies.

Because they had to follow Li Ye to Macaque Mountain, they could only kill the fierce beasts along the way.

As a master whose fighting ability could be compared with that of a cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm, Li Ye did not like to walk through the jungles when he did not have to. So he asked You Daxiao to lead everyone on the road and he went first with the demon leopard, White Wolf, Duchess and the others. He said that he would be the scout to see if there were any fierce beasts ahead, but in fact, he wanted to enjoy the pleasure of sightseeing.

Many cultivators in the team of independent cultivators were in the Real Immortal Realm and there were about 20 of them in total. Li Ye appointed Wei Weiwu as their temporary captain. Each department should have clear commands in an army. But it was not a real army, so Li Ye did not have so strict requirements.

While Li Ye was free and easy with everyone, Zhao Batian was gasping for breath on the cobblestones, by a river in the forest about 100 to 150 kilometers away from Blackstone Mountain.

He had been fleeing for the whole of yesterday and he almost left the forest and returned to Zhenjiang City. Later, he only dared to stop and rest after making sure that no immortals were chasing after him. After confirming that there was no threat, he felt aggrieved and returned.

Even after a night of rest, he barely recovered from his injury. Particularly, the immortals’ Xuanhuang Demon-subduing Invocations had a great impact on him.

When the sun was high in the sky, several cultivators flew down from the sky.

Their leader was Zhao Dengke, who lost an arm. He had fled in a panic yesterday. No one had chased after him forcefully so he breathed a sigh of relief. After tending to his injury, Zhao Dengke began to look for Zhao Batian.

After all, the most important task for the cultivators of Zhenjiang City was not to wipe out the beast tide but to ensure Zhao Batian’s safety. If Zhao Batian was lost, Zhao Dengke would not have a good ending, even if he could come back to Zhenjiang City alive. If Zhao Batian died on Blackstone Ridge, Zhao Bofu would not let him live.

After searching for a whole night, Zhao Dengke finally found Zhao Batian. After all, he was a Great Cultivator in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm. He had been seriously injured by the Xuanhuang Demon-subduing Invocations and his strength had been greatly reduced. His fighting ability was just in the Great Completion of the Real Immortal Realm now, but he was still a master.

Seeing Zhao Dengke coming back, Zhao Batian sat up and glanced at the cultivators beside him. He could not hide his disappointment. “Are there only so few cultivators left?”

Zhao Dengke’s face became gloomy, but he still maintained his respect for Zhao Batian. “I only found these few cultivators. Don’t worry. Everyone scattered in the battle, so it is normal to be separated. There should be a lot of cultivators alive.”

Zhao Batian sighed and laid back on the ground again with despair on his face. “What should I do? My father asked me to wipe out the beast tide because he wanted to train me and establish my prestige in Zhenjiang City. Now, not only did I did not wipe out the beast tide, but most of my demons have died. How can I face my elders when I go back?”

Zhao Dengke’s eyes flickered and his voice became low. “Although you failed to wipe out the beast tide, the Lord will not be very disappointed. You know you had two tasks on this trip. You could not wipe out the beast tide because the immortals played tricks behind the scene. It is not your fault. If you can complete the other task, I am sure that the Lord will praise you.”

Zhao Batian sat up again and blinked his eyes in confusion. “The other task? What is it?”

Zhao Dengke immediately answered, “Did you forget that the Lord asked you to kill a person through the sound transmission before the battle on Blackstone Mountain?”

Zhao Batian was suddenly enlightened. “Li Congjing? I am afraid that he was killed by the immortals when the battle on Blackstone Mountain failed, so we do not need to do it personally.”

Zhao Dengke said, “When we escaped yesterday, the immortals did not chase after us. I thought that was strange. When I gathered the cultivators under your order last night, I tried to get closer to Blackstone Mountain and investigate the situation. Guess what I saw. There were no immortals or fierce beasts on Blackstone Mountain, but only four to five independent cultivators who had survived. Moreover, they seemed to have won the battle, and they lit countless bonfires to celebrate!”

Zhao Batian stood up in shock and widened his eyes in disbelief. “What? How could that be? Did they repel the immortals and fierce beasts? But with their strength, how could they defeat the immortals and fierce beasts without the masters of Zhenjiang City?”

Zhao Dengke gnashed his teeth and said, “I don’t know. I went at the wrong time, so I did not see anything unusual. Maybe the other cultivators joined the battlefield in time and turned the tide. After all, the immortals’ Xuanhuang Demon-subduing Invocations were all used on us. Without that, the immortals were easy to deal with… It does not matter now because it has already happened. But as long as Li Congjing did not die, we will have an opportunity to complete the task the Lord gave us!”

Zhao Batian’s eyes were filled with hope. “Then what are we waiting for? Let us go to Blackstone Mountain and find him! He is just in the Ground Immortal Realm. Even though he can fight a cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm, he will be no match for you. Even if we fight him, those independent cultivators will not dare to act rashly once we reveal our identities!”

Zhao Dengke nodded. “If you are able to move, we can set off now!”

“Let us go now! Kill him! He took my Magic Treasures. I have been wanting to take it back!”

They no longer hesitated and prepared to set off.

However, at this moment, a lazy and sarcastic voice was heard. “You don’t have to go and look for me. I am coming to you now. If you want to take my head, you can just come and take it.”

“Who is it?”

“Who is there?!”

Zhao Batian, Zhao Dengke and the other demons turned pale with fright. They quickly made a defensive stance and looked in the direction of the voice.

Li Ye was standing on a canopy and looking down at them with ridicule. Beside him, White Wolf, the demon leopard, Duchess and the others were also looking at them with scorn.

After leaving Blackstone Mountain, Li Ye was enjoying the view of the magnificent rivers and mountains of the demon clan along the way. The sparrow, which was exploring the road ahead, suddenly reported that several of Zhao Batian’s subordinates were flying ahead in a hurry.

The sparrow’s fighting ability was not good enough and it did not look like a cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm. Once it met a powerful opponent, it ran faster than anyone. But no demons could compare with it, in terms of flying speed and eyesight.

Moreover, after it took a lot of Li Ye’s Dan Pills, its cultivation had been promoted to the Real Immortal Realm. Even if it met a cultivator in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm, it could accurately track his whereabouts from a distance where the other side could not find it. Because of this, the sparrow was capable of being a scout.
