It’s just that the demon leader was really bad at talking, and Xingyuan didn’t give him the opportunity to ask questions, let alone the obligation to answer his questions.

So it could only agree to it first, and let the demon team behind it make way to the left and right, retreat to the back of the team, and maintain a distance of five meters from these noble moon demons.

"Our clan leader said that His Majesty felt that the movements from your demon clan seemed like a rare treasure was coming out of the world."

Xingyuan walked to the side and back of the demon leader with a smile, as if he didn't mind his "stink" anymore, "How is it, did you dig out the treasure?"

The demon leader's body shook noticeably, as if he had not expected that their so-called 'secret operation' would be discovered before it even saw any progress.

This time, not only Long Haochen and his teammates were frightened, even the members of Xingyuan's own team responded to him improvisationally. With just a few words mentioned in the mission content and a few lies, they tricked the demon commander in front of them, who was equivalent to a sixth-level professional, into panic. Their minds were completely focused on how to get away with it, and their vigilance was lowered to the extreme.

"No, that's not the case, Your Excellency."

The demon leader's voice was trembling, and he spoke incoherently: "There is no treasure here, we didn't dig up anything. If, if there really is a treasure, we dug it out, and our clan leader would personally present it to Your Majesty... No, no need to bother you to make a special trip."

"Your Majesty said yes, so what? Who are you to dare to question His Majesty?"

Xing Yuan's tone was obviously a little impatient, and he did not forget to put a huge hat on the head of the demon leader, "You didn't dig out the treasure because you are incompetent. It is impossible that there is no treasure. Hurry up and take us over there to take a look, so that we can go back and report to the clan leader."

In the team, seeing that the captain Xingyuan, who usually treats others gently and never uses his status to bully others, actually has such a mean side when acting, the other female members of level 21 also showed more or less amused expressions.

……

Since Xingyuan and Long Haochen had memorized the map, they could tell at a glance that the demon leader was not as honest as he appeared.

The mountains here are full of holes dug by the demons. It is obvious that they intend to find a deep hole to deal with Xingyuan and other "Moon Demons" and lead them in the opposite direction of the Cave of Fear and Sorrow.

"Haoyue, did you hear any unusual sounds?"

Xing Yuan, who was walking behind the Demon Commander, suddenly turned his head for no reason and asked the Moon Demon 'Long Haochen' next to him.

Not only did the demon leader's heart beat wildly after hearing this, even Long Haochen himself was slightly stunned. However, he quickly realized that the "Haoyue" that Xingyuan mentioned was actually calling him.

This was a moon demon name that Xingyuan gave him on the spur of the moment.

"sound?"

Long Haochen didn't know whether he should answer whether he heard it or not. In addition, the demon leader in front of the two of them had a sixth-level cultivation base, and there was a possibility that he would be discovered when communicating with Xingyuan at this distance.

So in his opinion, the best way to deal with it right now is to throw the problem back to Xingyuan...

“I think I heard a little.”

In fact, Long Haochen didn't hear anything, but in order to cooperate with Xingyuan's acting, he deliberately frowned and thought, "It's just that I don't know what that sound is."

"It sounded like someone was crying."

Xing Yuan said calmly: "After we finish dealing with things here, we will go over there..." "That, that side is... they are killing monsters, so you two adults won't have to make a wasted trip."

This demon leader was so frightened by Xing Yuan that his heart was about to burst.
He knew very well that the head of his family wanted to keep the treasure in the cave for himself, otherwise, he would not have sent only such a small group of people to dig for treasure and concealed the news from the outside world.

The direction pointed by the two Moon Demons just now is the location of the Cave of Fear and Sorrow. If they were really allowed to go there, with the strength and knowledge of the Moon Demon Viscount, he would definitely be able to discover that there must be treasures there...

And if with their strength, they could obtain the treasures in the cave, that would undoubtedly be the worst case scenario.

Not only did they lose the treasure that the clan leader wanted, but Viscount Moon Demon also wanted to report it to His Majesty, not only taking the credit for discovering the treasure for himself, but also accusing the demons of attempting to embezzle the treasure.

Thinking of this, the demon leader could not help but feel furious. He almost drew his knife from his waist and wanted to fight with Xingyuan and the other moon demons...

It wants to live a little longer.

……

In the end, the demon leader led Xingyuan and others to the deepest cave they had dug here, and then retreated aside respectfully.

Xingyuan walked around him and came to the front of the cave which was emitting a slight foul odor and a strong smell of death inside.

How come there is a smell of death here?
Xingyuan blinked with some curiosity, but soon realized that this should be the protection mechanism of the Tower of Eternity, deliberately setting up confusion to prevent outsiders from finding it easily.

Otherwise, these demons wouldn't have to dig holes everywhere here.

“What a disgusting smell!”

Xingyuan simply took a quick look and retreated, then turned around and glared at the demon leader, "Birds of a feather flock together. You demons are born to dig up garbage and eat. Even if there are treasures in here, we dare not present them to His Majesty."

Although his words were still harsh, they sounded like a spring breeze to the ears of the demon leader.

You know, he was still worried a second ago that these moon demons would go to the direction of the cave of fear and howling where they heard the crying sounds just now after looking at this place.

"My Lord Viscount, what do you mean?"

"get out."

Xingyuan waved his hand impatiently, "Go into this cave and dig up garbage. We still have to go back and report to the clan leader."

The demon leader was overjoyed after hearing this. He didn't even have time to think about the reason. He immediately called his subordinates. Thirty big demons went around from the back to the front of the team and entered the cave in front of them in a serious manner, pretending to be about to start their exploration mission...

Suddenly, it heard an inaudible "knock" sound coming from behind.

Then, a short dagger with a dark golden tip pierced through its back, pierced through its skull, and appeared between its eyebrows...

Cai'er gently stirred the blade, then with a flicker of light between her fingers, she put it into her storage ring. (End of this chapter)
