Crazy Poultry
While Yue Ji was racking her brain, Zhong Qing had already left the Fallen Devil Land with the Twelve Demon Generals.
This time, his overall gains could be described as abundant.
Not only did he obtain the True Demon Inheritance, but he also gained twelve Heaven-Defying subordinates.
With the Twelve Demon Generals by his side,
even if he encountered the North Demon Cave, which was considered a top power in the Northern Region, he believed he could push through.
However, ideals are beautiful.
There was a slight difference between reality and ideals.
As the Twelve Demon Generals left the Fallen Devil Land,
a peculiar change occurred in them.
“Oh no!”
“Without the nourishment of the Demon Source, our Soul bodies are beginning to dissipate.”
A Demon General cried out in horror.
It could be seen that their Souls were melting.
Zhong Qing frowned upon seeing this.
“What’s going on?”
“Demon Lord, your amnesia has not recovered, so you probably don’t remember that, strictly speaking, we had already died once during the previous battle between gods and demons.”
“What you see now are just the remnant Souls we left behind!”
“Now that we have left the Demon Race’s main base, we urgently need a Physical Body, otherwise, in less than three quarters of an hour, all Twelve Demon Generals will likely be Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!”
Demon One said with a face full of anxiety.
“We hope the Demon Lord can refine and bestow upon us a Physical Body!”
This request gave Zhong Qing a headache.
In this desolate place, where was he supposed to find Physical Bodies?
However, seeing their Soul bodies unstable, if he didn’t find a solution soon, they would probably disappear directly.
These Demon Generals, at their Peak, were existences that surpassed the Three Yang Realm.
He couldn’t bear to let them die like this.
“Do you have any requirements for the Physical Body?”
Zhong Qing quickly asked.
“Replying to the Demon Lord, it only needs to be a living creature that can temporarily shelter our remnant Souls.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhong Qing had an idea.
His Divine Thought swept out, and he discovered a farmstead three hundred miles away!
There, many poultry were kept.
“Follow me!”
Time was of the essence.
He waved his hand, tearing through the Void Realm with the Twelve Demon Generals, and headed towards that farmstead.
The moonlight was like water!
The bright moonlight shone into the courtyard.
This was a civilian house with two or three small pens!
In the small pens, there were two cows, three pigs, and more than a dozen small chicks!
Having been in the Northern Region for a long time, this was the first time Zhong Qing had seen a Mortal farmer.
But now was not the time to think about such things.
He said to the Twelve Demon Generals, “Choose a Physical Body for yourselves!”
One could say, given the status of the Twelve Demon Generals, they wouldn’t even glance at these common farm animals in normal times.
But now, with life and death at stake, there was naturally no opportunity to be picky.
Twelve illusory figures transformed into streaks of black light, each entering an animal’s body.
This commotion caused the remaining livestock to run wild in a flurry of chickens and dogs.
At the same time, it attracted the owner of the farmstead.
An old woman rushed out, carrying a carrying pole.
Seeing Zhong Qing standing in front of her livestock pen, her eyes immediately turned red.
“I’ll beat you to death, you thief!”
Zhong Qing broke out in a sweat!
Carelessly, he had become a thief.
“Madam, please listen to my explanation!”
“How about I buy these livestock?”
Although with his strength, even if the other party swung the carrying pole all night, they wouldn’t be able to break his skin.
But he wasn’t the type to bully others.
He was in the wrong first, so there was no reason to resort to force.
Afraid the old woman wouldn’t believe him!
Zhong Qing quickly pulled out a handful of gold coins!
This stuff was extremely popular among Mortals.
Zhong Qing always used to carry some when he went down the mountain.
Now, it finally had a use.
The power of money was undoubtedly quite strong.
The old woman, who had been about to rush up and fight Zhong Qing a moment ago, saw the full handful of gold coins, and her entire attitude changed immediately.
“Are these really for me?”
She held the carrying pole with both hands, somewhat at a loss.
“That’s right!”
Zhong Qing extended one hand and directly stuffed the gold coins into the old woman’s pocket.
“Madam, what happened today was my rashness.”
“I hope you don’t mind!”
“Are these enough to buy these livestock?”
“Enough! Enough!”
“Not to mention these livestock, even if you bought this old woman, it would be more than enough!”
As she spoke, she pulled out a few gold coins and bit them one by one, as if cracking melon seeds.
After confirming they were genuine, she smiled brightly and stood aside, her eyes filled with a hint of anticipation, seemingly genuinely hoping Zhong Qing would buy her.
Zhong Qing broke out in a cold sweat!
“Madam, there’s no need for that!”
“You go back inside and sleep!”
“I’ll pick out twelve livestock later and then leave.”
“Alright, alright!”
The old woman agreed very readily.
The gold coins Zhong Qing gave her were enough for her family to live a prosperous life in a Mortal city.
She had never seen such a generous guest in her life.
Naturally, she didn’t want to go against Zhong Qing’s wishes.
As the old woman left, Zhong Qing finally let out a long sigh of relief.
He looked at the few pens, truly unable to distinguish who was who.
“Where are the Twelve Demon Generals?”
“Those who have changed their Physical Bodies, come out quickly.”
Now that he had obtained the True Demon Inheritance, he naturally didn’t want to delay any longer.
The sooner he delivered the Legacy to his future Disciple, the less danger his future Disciple would face.
As Zhong Qing’s voice fell,
the Twelve Demon Generals all came out in unison.
Among them were two cows, three pigs, and seven chickens!
They neatly walked out of the pens.
“Thank you, Demon Lord, for finding Physical Bodies for us!”
Demon One, who had transformed into a small chick, thanked Zhong Qing.
He tried to bow, but being in a chicken’s body, he wasn’t used to it and instead stumbled.
The other Demon Generals followed suit, and for a moment, it was a scene of utter chaos.
It was a large-scale disaster scene.
“Alright, no need for formalities!”
“Is the Legacy safe?”
“Replying to the Demon Lord, the Legacy is in my belly, guaranteed to be foolproof!”
The yellow ox spoke, its voice muffled and deep.
“In that case, you all enter, and I will go do something.”
“In your current state, can you fly through the air?”
“Replying to the Demon Lord, no problem!”
The Twelve Demon Generals responded one after another.
Facing the sky, they showed a hint of excitement.
After all, they had been in that True Demon Inheritance land for countless years.
Now that they had finally come out, they felt the air filled with the scent of freedom.
Zhong Qing nodded slightly upon seeing this, then took the Twelve Demon Generals and soared into the sky.
Then, a strange scene appeared between heaven and earth.
One person in front, followed by a group of livestock.
Their formation was quite scattered, and their speed was extremely fast.
They sped towards the horizon like lightning.
