546: The old demon, making a good relationship

Ancient Demon City.

It is one of the three major Demon Cities in Demon State, and compared to Tianmo City and Blood Demon City, Ancient Demon City is the most powerful and extraordinary.

This City has no City gates, only towering black City walls. The City walls are sealed by a large formation, making it very difficult for outsiders to enter.

Even the other two major Demon Clans, without a special invitation, would find it difficult to enter this Demon City.

The Ancient Demon Clan is extremely mysterious; their whereabouts are uncertain, and they rarely appear before the world.

However, no one dares to underestimate them; any Ancient Demon possesses terrifying strength, and among the three major Demon Clans, the Ancient Demon Clan is the strongest.

“Ancient Demon City…”

Xie Weilou stood with his hands behind his back outside the City, calmly looking at the Demon City in front of him.

This Demon City was very peculiar; there were no extra guards on the City walls, only an old man dressed in black robes. The old man sat cross-legged, holding an ancient zither in his arms.

The overall feeling the City gave off was one of silence and desolation.

“Young friend, you have arrived!”

The black-robed old man slowly spoke.

He already knew about Xie Weilou destroying the Blood Demon Clan and causing six Heavenly Demon Clan Divine Courts to perish. Now that the other party had come here, his purpose was clear.

Xie Weilou looked at the black-robed old man, cupping his fists and saying, “The aura on senior makes me feel inexplicably familiar.”

This black-robed old man’s strength was very strong; he couldn’t see through it for now, but he was very familiar with the aura on the other party.

The black-robed old man chuckled, “This old man is an Ancient Demon, and I am precisely Yan Junlin’s backer.”

Xie Weilou was a little surprised, “I thought senior was just a soul body!”

Previously, Yan Junlin had played the ghost possession trick, and he thought there was also a soul body within the other party. Now it seemed the situation was a bit different.

The Ancient Demon shook his head, “I was a soul body before, but after many years, I have barely managed to recover my physical body.”

“Senior should know the purpose of my visit.”

Xie Weilou spoke politely.

The Ancient Demon nodded gently, “I know! Young friend, please come up to the City wall.”

He waved his sleeve, and the City protection formation quickly disintegrated.

“……”

Xie Weilou took a step, instantly appearing on the City wall.

The Ancient Demon said, “Young friend, take a look, how many people are there in my Ancient Demon Clan.”

Xie Weilou looked into the City. The vast City did not have as many pavilions and buildings as imagined; there was only one black Demon Hall.

He released his divine soul, probing into the Demon Hall, and found only fifty-odd Ancient Demon Clan members.

“Are there so few people in the Ancient Demon Clan?”

Xie Weilou looked surprised; a huge City with only fifty-odd Ancient Demon Clan members was something he hadn’t expected.

Although there were few members in the fifty-odd Ancient Demon Clan, many of them had powerful cultivation; at least twenty were in the Divine Court Realm. Such a lineup was astonishing.

The Ancient Demon explained, “Young friend may not know, but in fact, my Ancient Demon Clan is not a race of this world. A thousand years ago, my clan suffered a calamity, and this old man led the clansmen to flee here. Unfortunately, I was severely injured at the time and found it difficult to recover for many years. Afterward, I encountered an assault by the Demon Clan, leaving only a divine soul…”

“……”

Xie Weilou remained silent, waiting for the Ancient Demon to continue.

The Ancient Demon said, “Young friend has already destroyed the Blood Demon Clan and caused six Divine Courts of the Heavenly Demon Clan to perish. Next, you intend to act against my Ancient Demon Clan, but this old man still asks for your mercy.”

“……”

Xie Weilou gazed at the Ancient Demon.

The Ancient Demon said, “Before, this old man did send a Divine Court of the Ancient Demon Clan to help Yan Junlin, but my Ancient Demon Clan will not go south, nor will we encroach upon the Great Xia territory, because we are preparing to go north. The Ancient Demon Clan is about to leave, so this old man still asks for your mercy.”

There were too few people in the Ancient Demon Clan; they yearned to return, to their original world, to their great clan, so naturally, they would not continue south.

For them, this world was too remote, not their final destination, and leaving was the best choice.

Xie Weilou was silent for a second, then said, “Senior’s strength is unfathomable; even if I were to act, I might not be your opponent.”

This old Demon was very mysterious; his cultivation was impossible to see through at all, and he was definitely a terrifying existence.

The Ancient Demon sighed, “This old man has lived for over a thousand years, and my perception of danger is extremely keen. My realm may surpass young friend’s, but if we were to truly fight, I fear I would have to pay a huge price. Now that the Ancient Demon Clan has already left, and this old man has not truly recovered to his peak, I dare not gamble!”

Xie Weilou gave him a very strange feeling; the other party was filled with a terrifying sense of danger.

If they were to truly fight, he might not win. At this critical juncture, if a fight could be avoided, it would naturally be the best outcome.

The Ancient Demon continued, “After all, my Ancient Demon Clan’s people did act against young friend before. It would be inappropriate for this old man to simply rely on words to ask for young friend’s mercy.”

“How about this! This old man will give young friend an item, hoping to resolve the conflict between young friend and my Ancient Demon Clan.”

The Ancient Demon took out a black box.

Buzz!

Just as the Ancient Demon took out the box, the Demon Hand in Xie Weilou’s Dantian instantly vibrated, appearing incredibly excited.

Xie Weilou’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the Ancient Demon, “Senior, what is this?”

A complex look appeared in the Ancient Demon’s eyes, “Inside is a pair of Demon Clan wings. Young friend has a demonic aura on him that even this old man cannot comprehend, so you must be fated with this item. As for what is truly extraordinary about these Demon Clan wings, young friend will know after refining them!”

He waved his hand gently, and the box flew to Xie Weilou’s front.

“……”

Xie Weilou pondered for a moment, then put away the box.

Something that could make the Demon Hand so excited must be extremely extraordinary, and he would not refuse it.

“Thank you, young friend!”

The Ancient Demon, seeing Xie Weilou put away the item, slightly cupped his fists.

Xie Weilou looked at the Ancient Demon, “Senior, where are you from?”

The Ancient Demon smiled and said, “A vast continent, not in this world, very far from here. If you continue north, you might be able to explore it. This is a world where the strong prey on the weak; the path is under your feet, and young friend must walk it yourself.”

Back then, when he led his clan to escape that continent, he also passed through several teleportation arrays and by chance arrived here. To return would certainly take a lot of time.

Xie Weilou did not ask further, cupped his fists, and bowed, “Since I have received senior’s item, the conflict between me and the Ancient Demon Clan is completely resolved. This junior bids farewell!”

The Ancient Demon looked at Xie Weilou and mused, “Young friend, if you refine that thing, and if you leave this world, you must use it cautiously. My Ancient Demon Clan’s calamity back then was related to that thing.”

“Thank you for the reminder, senior.”

Xie Weilou nodded gently, then flew away.

Since the Ancient Demon Clan was leaving, there was no need for him to act. More importantly, he had received an item from the Ancient Demon.

The Ancient Demon looked at Xie Weilou’s retreating figure and muttered to himself, “Consider it making a good connection!”

He couldn’t understand this young man. Perhaps it wasn’t bad to make a connection with a treasure.

Moreover, Yan Junlin and Xie Weilou had some interactions. If this young man didn’t perish, they should be able to meet again in the future!
