Xiong Sansi looked at him with a mix of amusement and irritation: "These human race words, you have them all sorted out, quite capable of putting them to good use."
"Brother Xiong is well-versed in the classics of the human race, I am simply learning from you." Yu Xin earnestly replied, "No matter how brilliant our ancestors were, and no matter how history is glorified above, the reality is that we have been driven here by the human race. The fact is, they have established a foothold in the Five Evils Basin... There must be many things worth learning from them."
"Alright then." Seeing his current humble and self-reflective demeanor, Xiong Sansi sighed, "This matter can’t be entirely blamed on you. Over the past few days, I’ve come to understand that Lord Yu Zhen’s existence and influence are tremendously far-reaching. Attempting to completely keep the Shenxiao Secret Cache a secret is impossible. As the opening date approaches, more and more demons will learn about it from various sources..."
His tone had softened, but it was still quite unpleasant.
"Can’t we?" Yu Xin exclaimed in astonishment: "Isn’t there only Lu Qilang who knows now? He only has vague spirit perceptions and doesn’t know the specifics. If it’s absolutely necessary, we could just part with some treasures and fool him into leaving."
"Do you think that within Feiyun Tower, there’s only one clever demon?" Xiong Sansi retorted, "Could they all not think of what you and I can?"
Yu Xin wanted to say yes, Yuan Mengji is reckless, Zhu Zheng cruel, Ken Xihua sinister—none of them clever. Lan Ruo, the little princess is naive and innocent, without any complex thoughts.
But faced with Xiong Sansi’s gaze, he didn’t dare to speak up.
Xiong Sansi sighed again and said, "Do you know that Shujia Lan of Black Lotus Temple has also arrived in Mo Yun City?"
"Of course I know this." Yu Xin dismissively waved his hand: "Their branch here was leveled by a guy called Peaceful Ghost Messenger, who is here for the investigation! Black Lotus Temple has committed many crimes, having a few enemies is only normal."
"For something that happened right in Mo Yun City, you don’t care and haven’t even clarified the situation, leaving me to investigate!" Xiong Sansi’s temper flared again, "Although Shujia Lan hasn’t been sealed by the Ancient Imperial City, he absolutely has the capability of a new king on the Heavenly List. Don’t you think, would a mere Ghost Arhat be worth his investigation?"
Yu Xin was doubtful: "Are you saying he also knows about the Shenxiao Secret Cache?"
"I only know that his intentions are anything but simple," Xiong Sansi replied, "Black Lotus Temple sent a true disciple for investigation regarding the Ghost Arhat incident. Following closely behind was Shujia Lan for the same reason, which is unnecessary. Moreover... the first true disciple who came to investigate was also killed!"
Yu Xin was just aware of this news, exclaiming in shock, "Can the Peaceful Ghost Messenger be that strong? Do you know his background, brother?"
"I’ve never heard of Peaceful Ghost Messenger before, but he must belong to a secretive organization as well," Xiong Sansi said, "I went specifically to both sites connected to Black Lotus Temple. There was ’Peaceful Ghost Messenger’ written at the first, with no mark at the second. The one acting at the second site wasn’t the same demon. Despite the one at the second site hiding their identity and restraining their power, they could easily massacre Black Lotus Temple’s true disciples while controlling the battle environment. Such feats could only be achieved by someone at the level of a Demon King. At least he is an expert of new king caliber on the Heavenly List!"
For a moment, Yu Xin remained silent, truly feeling immense pressure, with his confidence in smoothly inheriting the Shenxiao Secret Cache seriously shaken.
The Heavenly List, set by the peerless Heavenly Demon Mi Zhiben, is the most authoritative power ranking in the Monster Realm.
The new kings on the Heavenly List, focused on young Demon Kings, are also considered the chosen geniuses of the Demon clan.
When did the new kings on the Heavenly List become so undervalued?
In such a small Mo Yun City, there are now gathered Lu Qilang of the Divine Scented Deer Family, She Guyu who annihilated his clan, Shujia Lan of Black Lotus Temple, a tattooed demon under Tiger Taisui, and a mysterious and unfathomable Peaceful Demon King!
This makes his Mo Yun Three Talents difficult to stand out...
