185: Departure to Chaos Demon Realm

“A bounty order? Tell me more.”

Hearing Jiang Lan's question, Wang Erniu was not surprised.

Wang Erniu had long since realized that Jiang Lan's knowledge of the demon world, if not completely absent, was at least pitifully scarce.

She was already intelligent, and if she hadn't noticed the anomaly by now, she wouldn't have survived under Jiang Lan.

She had already guessed that Jiang Lan was definitely not a native of the demon region.

Perhaps he was born on the human side.

However, she still hadn't figured out Jiang Lan's purpose.

But for Wang Erniu, those matters were no longer important.

What was important was that she could live.

That was enough.

As for where Jiang Lan came from and what his purpose was, she had no desire to dig for answers.

Anyway, Jiang Lan was her Master now, and all she had to do was listen to whatever he said.

Having already understood this, Wang Erniu truthfully said:

“Bounty orders are issued uniformly by the Sect and can be viewed in the Sect Hall. Besides bounties, the most common way for Sect Disciples to earn contributions is by taking on missions in the Sect Hall.”

Jiang Lan nodded.

With that explanation, he understood.

“How much contribution does one bounty order give?”

Wang Erniu continued to answer: “This… the amount of contribution varies depending on the Realm of the bounty target.”

“How much for Mortal Shedding?”

“Mortal Shedding… roughly three thousand to ten thousand, varying?”

Hearing this number, Jiang Lan had a rough idea.

Since he decided not to cause trouble in the Ten Thousand Demons Hall for now, he still had to stay in the Ten Thousand Demons Hall.

If he stayed here… according to Old Wolf, no matter what he did in this Ten Thousand Demons Hall, he needed contribution as currency.

And currently, he and Wang Erniu had no contribution whatsoever.

Jiang Lan thought for a moment.

“Is there a limit to the number of bounties one can accept?”

Wang Erniu shook her head.

“I haven't heard of such a thing; I assume there isn't.”

“Alright then, go and accept all the bounties in the Luan Mo Region.”

“Ah?”

Even though she was unconditionally obedient to Jiang Lan, Wang Erniu couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Jiang Lan glanced at her, “What, you can't?”

Wang Erniu, as if waking from a dream, nodded repeatedly and agreed: “Yes! Of course, I can! I'll go right now!”

“Go, and come back to find me later.”

Wang Erniu was about to leave but then seemed to suddenly remember something.

“Master, if I'm not mistaken, there are several Demon Core Great Demons who defected from the Ten Thousand Demons Hall in the Luan Mo Region, you…”

Since he accepted the bounties, he would definitely have to kill them.

She was now bound by a blood pact with Jiang Lan.

If Jiang Lan were to die unexpectedly, she would also perish instantly.

Although Jiang Lan was also a Demon Core, encountering other demons of the same Demon Core Realm, it was uncertain whether he could defeat them.

If he tried to gain an advantage but ended up suffering a loss, and even got himself involved, it would be a huge waste.

“Demon Core?”

Jiang Lan's eyes lit up.

The Luan Mo Region was a good place.

There were even Demon Core Realm demons?

If he killed them all, wouldn't it be a huge windfall?

After a moment of thought, Jiang Lan looked up again and asked: “Are there Demon Infants in that place?”

“Demon Infant…” Wang Erniu shook her head, “I'm not sure. I've only heard about the Luan Mo Region. I only knew about the Demon Core demons there because I saw their names on the plaques in the Sect Hall.”

“Hmm.” Jiang Lan waved his hand, “You're done here, go. Finish accepting the missions and come back to find me.”

Seeing that Jiang Lan's mind was made up, Wang Erniu knew that her persuasion was useless, so she bowed and agreed:

“Yes.”

With that, she scurried off towards the Sect Hall.

Watching Wang Erniu's retreating figure disappear from sight, Jiang Lan felt a little emotional.

Indeed, plans change faster than they are made.

He had previously thought about slaughtering this mountain, but he didn't expect to find a new target just by asking a casual question.

The Luan Mo Region… just by its name, it sounded like a good place.

Perhaps for most demons, it wouldn't be considered good.

But for Jiang Lan, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a blessed land.

If it was truly as Wang Erniu said, then no matter how many demons he killed inside, it wouldn't cause any stir in the outside world.

And it was called the Luan Mo Region; those demons inside would surely contribute tens of thousands of years of lifespan to him, which would be more than enough.

Jiang Lan fantasized for a while, and on the other side, Wang Erniu returned.

The Sect Hall was located in the inner Sect. Although not particularly close, for an entered demon, it certainly wasn't far.

Earlier, when she guided Jiang Lan, she walked at a normal speed.

Now, at full speed, a quarter of an hour was enough for a round trip.

Wang Erniu returned to the cave, her breathing somewhat disordered. She took a deep breath and respectfully said to Jiang Lan:

“The bounties have been accepted.”

“Good.” Jiang Lan stood up, “Let's go.”

Wang Erniu was stunned.

Go?

Go where?

To the Luan Mo Region?

Was this a bit too fast?

From the moment Jiang Lan learned the words Luan Mo Region until now, it had only been about two quarters of an hour, right?

He had already decided to depart?

Although demons were generally daring and acted on their impulses, Wang Erniu still felt it was a bit too quick.

At the very least, he should prepare in advance, right?

Thinking of this, Wang Erniu hesitated and spoke to Jiang Lan:

“Sir, do you need to prepare in advance?”

“Prepare?” Jiang Lan looked at Wang Erniu with some confusion, “Prepare what?”

Jiang Lan didn't know what there was to prepare for, as he was just going to kill some demons.

“Uh…” Wang Erniu was stunned again.

She couldn't quite articulate what to prepare.

She just felt that preparations were necessary.

Jiang Lan raised his eyebrows.

“Lead the way. I'll prepare myself; no need for anything else.”

Jiang Lan had already planned it out.

He would start killing upon arrival and return home when finished.

He had long passed the stage where he needed mental preparation to kill demons.

For the current Jiang Lan, killing a demon was no different from picking up a cabbage by the roadside.

Jiang Lan didn't believe that anyone would need to prepare in advance to pick up a cabbage by the roadside.

“Alright…” Wang Erniu was silent for a moment, then agreed.

“Let's go.”

Jiang Lan said, and then casually walked out of the cave.

Wang Erniu followed behind him.

“Master, if we walk, it will take about three or four days. Do you need to prepare some dry rations or anything?”

Jiang Lan shook his head.

His current Realm already allowed him to abstain from food.

Moreover, the food in the demon world… for him, it was truly a bit hard to accept.

And, a distance of just over seven hundred li, how could it take him three or four days?

Three or four hours would already be considered slow for him.

“It won't take three or four days. Just follow me.”

Wang Erniu was also sensible. She immediately nodded and followed Jiang Lan down the mountain without a word.
