Chapter Fifty-One: The Branded Face

ppearance obscured....they were just bound tightly by vines, unable to move.It seems these two "Dragon God Messengers" have been captured by Qing Bajie and tied up with this vine, dragged all the way...This banshee was beautiful, with cherry-like lips and a delicate nose. Her eyes were alluringly soft. Her figure was as soft as smoke gauze, pliable as boneless.

Only that arc-perfect smile, as if inlaid on his face. Beautiful it was, yet lacking a touch of life.

This is a welcoming smile, a server's smile, a polite smile, not one born from happiness.

Her demonic aura manifested in her skin, an incredibly complex and ornate pattern of crimson scales that began at her neck and covered her snowy complexion, extending down into her garments as if it spread across her entire body.

Such patterns should make the viewer feel danger but upon closer inspection, there is a fatal allure. It takes no time at all to go from entering the house to crawling under the bed.

Her movements were impeccable, not even disturbing a speck of dust in the room. She immediately entered a state of slumber, her body and soul leaving no trace, not a single breath escaping her.

Had Jiang Wang not been observing the entire scene, he would have had a hard time noticing that there was another female demon in the room. At this moment, of course, he could guess the identity of this female demon.

With such strength and yet hiding so well, who else could it be besides the Serpent Clan's identity apart from the infamous Red Moon King, Snake Gu Yu, who is currently being hunted by Rokuro

And as she entered her slumber, the serpent patterns on her skin quickly receded, finally coiling into a small, crescent moon beneath her left collarbone...

A jade bowl holding a crimson moon, what a beautiful sight.

The ancient deity reflected in the mirror could fully understand the reasoning behind this succubus' actions—a room thoroughly searched by Ichirō himself would likely not be visited by anyone else for a while.

Isn't that precisely why the great ancient gods hide here without moving We may have collided with ideas and choices, but we can also say hello to fate. Let's play in the dark under the lamplight and engage in a horse-and-rider game!

There is no problem at all.

But can't you go to another room Did you pay to come in Don't you think it's crowded

The Great Ancient God wanted to destroy her with a fierce hand while she was sleeping, sending her to eternal slumber. But he worried about being unable to defeat her. After all, those who know their family best know themselves best.

Here's the translation:

Here, his own injuries haven't healed yet, but Snake Gu Yu is a strong contender who deserves to be ranked among the new kings of the Heavenly Rankings. Even though Lu Qiulang, the seventh-ranked new king on the Heavenly Rankings, has been hunted for several months, he's still alive and kicking.

Moreover, judging by her state, she is in a dormant state, but even in this moment of slumber, her entire curled-up body maintains immense tension, ready to enter combat at any time.

Her slumber was no ordinary sleep. It was a profound technique, a masterful blend of concealing her presence, shutting off from the outside world, restoring her physical state, while simultaneously maintaining an incredibly high level of awareness.

...making the great ancient gods envious.

The ancient gods in the mirror especially believed that as long as they stepped out of this mirror world at this moment, this beautiful serpent woman would immediately "resurrect".

... he could never have killed it silently and without a trace.

But to just ignore it... the title of Inspiration King is not undeserved. When will Lu Qilang catch up What will happen when these two powerful demon kings fight Will this inn still be able to hold up Can Hong Zhuangjing continue to pretend to be ordinary

Perhaps or, since the Snake-God is staying in this room for a long time with his kingly vision and vigilance, he has discovered the secret of the Crimson Mirror. What should we do

Whether it's a righteous demon or an evil demon, none of them will ever give humanity a good outcome.

Jiang Wang seemed to see the ripples in the river of fate now swelling into a giant ghostly face, staring at him with malice. He saw himself trapped and embarrassed in the mirror world.

Looking around, there was only a sheet of paper filled with clues and a sword that had been carried through years of battles. Where would the road ahead lead

This deity is trapped within the mirror and unable to move. Even practicing cultivation, I dare not make any noise for fear of letting my qi escape. Facing the predicament of being in the same room as the Crimson Moon King, where can I possibly find a way out

The ghost official who sealed the sword for a month

Recently, the faceless cult, which has been developing in a low-key manner with its tail tucked between its legs

Or is it Chai A Si, who after many rounds of battles, fought his way into the top 100 of Moyun City

I thought of a brilliant idea!

In a closed room, Hoshizora's handsome face flushed with excitement: "The benefits on Hebi-go we can also have a chance to participate!"

"Wait a minute" came a gruff voice from the corner of the room. The sound was like stones scraping against each other, grating on the ears.

>

The voice came from a being sitting on a grand master's chair, with his legs crossed and fingers intertwined on his lap. His face was concealed behind a jet-black mask, devoid of any wrinkles, and his entire body was shrouded in a voluminous robe.

>

He asked, "You just said that at the banquet at Feiyun Tower you exposed a startling secret hidden on She Guyu's body... using a scheme of driving tigers to devour wolves"

>

"Yushin calmed his slightly agitated emotions and smiled as he sat down. "This is a diversion tactic, a way to shift their attention. Make them fight amongst themselves... But then I thought, since I've already exposed this matter, it would be suspicious if I just stood by and did nothing. It's better to actually seize this Snake Clan for myself, showing that I have nothing to hide. This will also let that Rokujiro know who truly controls the Mo Yun City."

"There's no need to rush into discussing how to seize Shegouyu. First, tell me..." the yokai muffled within its robes groaned, "Shegouyu possesses a certain hidden secret. Do you need me to elaborate Her extermination of her own clan must have had a special reason for it. This isn't common knowledge among all demons, is it"

Yu Xin was stunned for a moment before saying, "Brother Xiong, you don't know that Lu Qi's useless spiritual awareness told him he had a chance encounter in Mo Yun City! Isn't this fulfilling our divine secret At the time, the situation was urgent. I had to immediately make him associate this inspiration with She Gu Yu so that he wouldn't think about it endlessly and get us into trouble later!"

'Bear Brother' took a deep breath.

Yuxi chuckled with self-satisfaction. "We've known each other for ten years now, you still don't understand me For something this big, could I possibly not have thought it through"

He raised his hand with the air of a king commanding the world: "Logically speaking, Sheguyu should at most have inherited the legacy of a powerful demon king. It's possible that all his resources have been depleted. But Lu Qilang's spiritual awareness resonated with him in a way that was extraordinary. They must have thought that there was a genuine demon hidden within Sheguyu, guarding treasures. Didn't you see how Yuanmengji swallowed the wine spider fiercely At that moment, even his eyes turned green!"

"Yu Xin, Yu Xin." The monster in the long robe said, "For our ten years of friendship, I, Xiong San Si, will give you a piece of advice."

If Zhūzhēng were here to hear this conversation, he would surely have his confidence in his ability to find loot shaken, because the monster in this robe is actually named Xiong Sī.

He is Xiong Sanshi, known as "The Painted Face Demon," under the Tiger Deity of Ziwu Ridge! In the past decade, he has been the most powerful and influential young demon king in Ziwu Ridge.

In the latest edition of the Tianbang New King list, he ranked eighth. He was placed right between the recently deceased Tenkai King Shizan and the newly arrived Linggan King Rokujiro.

Yushin said openly, "If you have any suggestions for Brother Xiong, just say them."

Xiong Sansi lowered his voice and growled, "Sew your damn mouth shut!" Yuxin was startled and momentarily speechless.

You also know that the Spirit King has powerful spiritual awareness, allowing him to reap many fortuitous opportunities. You feel uneasy just hearing about it. Do you think he himself knows how strong his spiritual awareness is

Bear Third pondered, staring at Feather Trust: "His spiritual awareness is so precious. Why would he proactively tell you about his chance encounter in Mo Yun City"

"It's a good idea to connect Lu Qilang's inspiration with She Gu Yu. But who are you You just made the connection with one word Didn't Lu Qilang chase after She Gu Yu for so long that he knows his weight Could he be misled by your single sentence, Yu Xin Yu Xin, have you ever thought about why he still accepted your self-proclaimed connection at Feiyun Tower"

This repeated questioning was like a bolt from the blue, waking up Hatushi who was stuck in confusion. His face flickered between emotions: “You’re saying he is certain there's an opportunity in Mo Yun City but because he's unfamiliar with it and doesn't know where to start, he deliberately threw stones to ask for directions, and I just unwittingly revealed myself”

This is even more evident in Zhiliu's behavior at Flying Cloud Tower. He has his eyes on the secrets Hidden Feather possesses, and he avoids competitors ruthlessly, even using himself and Sheguyu as targets for elimination... truly bold and daring!

"The news of the Shenxiao Secret Vault came to me first," Xiong Sanshi said slowly. "I found you because it requires the bloodline of the Feather Clan to be opened, and you share the same demon sign with Feather Zhenzun. I believe you have extraordinary talent and there is a kind of fate connecting you with this venerable one in the dark. I am very certain that you are the destined recipient of this secret vault. From beginning to end, I didn't consider any other members of the Feather Clan. Only after befriending you and confirming your character did I share this secret vault with you."

For this copy of the Divine Thunder Secret Manual, I prepared myself for five years and waited with you, even accommodating your cultivation level. Even that oppressive, pitch-black mask couldn't hide the fierce light in his eyes at this moment: “I didn't find you to watch you mess everything up!”

"Sorry!"

It can be seen that there is a genuine friendship between Hashin and Kumanos, beyond just a cooperative relationship. At this moment, when Kumanos is angry with Hashin, he doesn't show fear or displeasure; instead, he expresses sincere remorse.

"I am both anxious about the Divine Thunder Secret and timid when facing Lu Qilang, which makes me act arrogantly and foolishly without realizing it!" He earnestly looked at Xiong Sanshi: "Brother Xiong, is there any way to remedy this situation now Can the opening time of the Divine Thunder Secret be postponed I can wait another ten years!"

"The Divine Thunder Secrecy can't wait ten years for you! You think Xiaoyu Zhen's name is called so much, you really think that the inheritance of Venerable Yuzhen is something in your pocket" Xiong Sansi spoke harshly and resentfully, "Lu Qilang has already sensed this matter, do you think we can just stop it If he can't find any clues, do you believe the incense-burning Lu family will visit Moyun City tomorrow"

"Yu Xin murmured, 'I think the Shenxiang Lu family wouldn't agree to marry into the Zhu family.'"

"The Heavenly Spider Lady has been heavily wounded on the front lines and is now nowhere to be found, recuperating. The power of the Spider Clan in the Tianxi Wasteland has already been shaken. What can possibly stop the Divine Fragrance Deer Clan" Bear Sansi said coldly: "Furthermore, how are the members of the Spider Clan considered righteous people Will they acknowledge your legitimacy as the heir to the Shenxiao Secret Collection, Yu Xin Or is it that because you discovered it first, this matter should be settled with seniority and deference, meaning they just have to obediently give you a share"

Yu Xin was speechless for a moment before saying, "Brother Xiong, your words really make me ashamed. I always thought I was smart, and considered myself to be more cunning than Yuan Meng and Qu Xi. But now it seems I'm just a frog at the bottom of a well."

>

Xiong Sans thought, with a mixture of amusement and exasperation, at him: "You humans really know how to learn and apply these words."

"Bear Elder, I have studied the human classics and learned from you." Yu Xin said earnestly: "No matter how glorious our ancestors were or how history was glorified by them, the fact is that we were driven to this place by humans. The humans have already established a firm foothold in the Five Evil Basins, which is a reality... They must have many things worthy of our learning."

"Well then." Seeing his humble and introspective demeanor again, Xiong Sanshi sighed, "It's not entirely your fault. These few days I've come to understand just how profound Yu Zhen's influence is. It's impossible to keep the matter of Shenxiao Secret Archives completely hidden. As the opening date approaches, more and more monsters will learn about it through various channels..."

His voice was already softened but still very unpleasant.

"No way" Hashizume exclaimed, dumbfounded. "Isn't it just Rokuzo who knows now He only has a spiritual sense and doesn't know the specifics. If we really have to, perhaps we could part with this treasure, unwilling as we are. We could even deceive him into taking it."

"Do you think there's only one clever monster in Feiyun Tower" Xiong Sanshi countered, "You and I have thought of things they haven't even imagined."

Yu Xin wanted to say yes, but the monkeys were too crazy, the spiders were too cruel, and the dogs were too cunning. No one was wise. Princess Lan Ruo was innocent and naive, purely adorable, and wouldn't have any complicated thoughts.

But he didn't dare to respond to Xiong San Si's gaze.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Bear Three pondered for a moment and then said, "Do you know that the Rat Monastery of Black Lotus Temple has also arrived in Mahou City"

"I know that," Hachimaru waved his hand dismissively. "One of their altars here was flattened by a fellow called Tai Ping Gui Cha! He's here investigating now! It's perfectly normal for Kuroren-ji to have several enemies given how much evil they've done."

"You don't even care about what happened in Mowun City You didn't even bother to find out the details, and I had to investigate it myself!" Xiong Sans thought, seeing the fire rising again: "Although Shura is not sealed by the Taigu Imperial City, he absolutely has the strength of a new king on the Heavenly List. Don't you think that a mere ghost-like Arhat is worth him investigating" Yu Xin was surprised and uncertain: "Are you saying he also knows about the secret of Shenxiao"

"I only know that he is definitely not here for simple reasons." Xiong Sansi thought, "The Black Lotus Temple sent a true disciple to investigate the matter of the Japanese Lohan. Shumugalan also came shortly after for this matter, which seems unnecessary. Moreover...the true disciple who came to investigate from the Black Lotus Temple was also killed."

This is the end of a paragraph.

"I only just heard about this news and was shocked," Yu Xin exclaimed. "Is that Taiping Ghost差 (officer) really this strong Do you know anything about his background"Bear San thought for a moment, "I went to both crime scenes at Heilian Temple myself. The first scene had a message left by the Taiping Ghost差. The second one had no markings whatsoever. It wasn't the same monster who attacked both places. Although the stronger being at the second crime scene deliberately concealed their presence and suppressed their power, it was still clear that they were operating at a level that could easily slaughter Heilian Temple's true disciples while also controlling the battlefield. This isn't something a mere demon king could achieve! It must be someone like Zhi Shao, a new champion on the Heavenly List!"

Yuxin was momentarily silent, truly feeling the immense pressure. His confidence in being able to safely inherit the Shenxiao Secret Repository had been violently shaken.

The ranked Tianbang is currently the most credible strength ranking list in the demon world. The new king of the Tianbang, which faces young demon kings, is also considered the top choice for the demon clan's celestial pride.

>

When did the new king of the daily list become so worthless

A tiny city amidst the clouds now gathers a host of extraordinary figures: the famed deer warrior, Luchilang, from the Shenxianglu family; the serpent-spirit, Helian, who destroyed his own clan; the temple rat, Gulan, under the command of Tiger Taisu; the tattooed demon with a hidden face; and a mysterious, elusive figure known as the King of Peace.

This makes it impossible for Mo Yunsan Jun to compete, doesn't it
