Chapter 2720 - 45: Boundless Sea of Clouds and Starry Sky (Part 2)

At this moment, the arena closest to Flower Street saw a grand influx of a large group of black-clad little monsters. Each one of them looked fierce and intimidating, glaring at this one and then that one.

It made the monsters watching dare to be angry but not dare to speak.

After all, this place was very close to Flower Street, and the one surrounded by these black-clad little monsters like stars surrounding the moon was the chief who recently became prominent at the Fruit and Flower Club—Gale Killing Sword Chai Asi.

"Who is this, so arrogant?" In the high floors of a nearby tavern, there was a young monster with a sinister face, holding a wine cup halfway to his lips, and he asked.

The left side of his face was covered with black, eerie demon marks. The lines twisted, and upon close inspection, seemed to be writhing.

Such conspicuous transcendent demon marks also indicated his identity—Ken Xihua of the Mo Yun Dog Family.

He’s Quan Xizai’s cousin. After Quan Xizai disappeared in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, he became the highest-pitched candidate to inherit the position of the Dog Family Head. His participation in the Jin Yang arena martial combat meeting this time was also to justify himself, clearing all doubts. Let all the monsters know, even if Quan Xizai were still here, he should properly hold that inheritance right.

This seat at the tavern was the best viewing spot for the fights. Ken Xihua certainly did not need to care about the sea selection; this time was mainly for drinking, and incidentally taking the brawls of these weaklings as appetizers.

Currently, sitting across from Ken Xihua and drinking with him was an elegant demon clan member with multiple eyes.

Upon hearing his words, he just glanced out the window: "Oh, Ape Family’s dog."

Ken Xihua furrowed his brows, feeling this statement somewhat unpalatable.

Speaking of pigs or dogs and such, originally, they were demon names.

Some beast types also naturally had parts resembling demon marks in appearance, which was normal enough; creations of the same world are always different yet similar. This precisely shows that demons and beasts are naturally formed, conforming to heavenly reason and nature.

Yet demons are demons, beasts are beasts.

The natural transcendent power and the innate wisdom are the natural chasm dividing the noble and the lowly among races.

Demons have demon names; beasts have beast names.

For example, what the human race refers to as "pig" was anciently called "shi." What the human race refers to as "dog" was anciently called "Huang Er."

Everything born from nature names itself, no name inherently carries any insulting significance.

Yet, those damn slave races named "humans" actually renamed beasts part by part according to their similarities to demon marks, spending their days insulting with "pig," "dog," and various livestock successes in turning demon names into beast names—beast names into cheap names...

Insulting language always spreads fastest.

Unknown when it began, these trends among the human race were also transmitted to the demon clan.

Although knowing very well that in Zhu Zheng’s mouth, the word ’dog’ refers to a beast type dog, in essence signifying an accomplice or pawn, it still always feels like being insulted to one’s face.

If a different monster spoke such heedless words, Ken Xihua might have harshly made him watch his words in the next life. But facing the young master of the Spider Family, he could only wipe out this discomfort in his heart and change the subject: "Recently, such an underground organization is so rampant, shouldn’t the security office take care of it?"

Zhu Zheng just glanced out of the window, deciding not to look anymore, responded lightly: "The pig must be fed sufficiently fat before it’s time for slaughter."

Ken Xihua accompanied with a faint smile on his face, his hand unmoved on the wine cup, yet his heart was alerted.

The fact is that these words are obviously reasonable.

But if the Fruit and Flower Club is that pig awaiting slaughter, then is the Dongxing Gang controlled by him? Or even... is the Moyun Ape Family? Is the Mo Yun Dog Family?

Because with the backing of the Mo Yun Spider Family, that Heavenly Spider Madam was severely injured in the war against the human race, her current whereabouts unknown while healing, even rumors say she is critically injured beyond recovery. In recent times, Mo Yun City is rife with turbulence, many forces itching to move. Various evil gods and evil spirits, all sorts of chaotic organizations...

Yet the Spider Family still seems terrifyingly powerful.

...

However, the gaze of Mo Yun City’s top young master did not affect our Gale Killing Sword.

He simply had no idea.

Currently, he is immersed in the prestige of tens of little brothers accompanying him to compete.

What is called being highly esteemed? What is called responding to one call? He never felt so dignified in his life!

The so-called returning home with wealth feels just like traveling in brocade robes at night.

Having so many little brothers yet not taking them out to dominate would be as if not having so many little brothers.

More importantly, the gracefully poised Little Qing is also here today to cheer for him?

Beside the arena, Chai Asi took out the Ancient divine mirror from his bosom, handing it to Yuan Xiaoqing affectionately: "Little Qing, my mother passed early, this is the only thing she left behind. I’ve always carried it, treasuring it like life. Now I’m about to go on stage, please help me keep it safe."

Over the duration of their acquaintance, the feelings of these two young little monsters have continued to warm.

But Chai Asi entrusting her with his mother’s sole relic so solemnly is indeed the first time.

Yuan Xiaoqing was touched by this trust, earnestly burying the otherwise ordinary-looking mirror against her chest, pressing close to her heart, hugging tightly: "Brother Chai, don’t worry. I will definitely keep it safe, never letting the mirror left by Aunt fall or lose."

Sight of the Ancient divine mirror in such a crucial position made Chai Asi blink repeatedly, reaching out to adjust its position, but he couldn’t move it: "Little Qing, this thing isn’t that precious, you don’t need to hold it like this, just keep it in your hand."

Yuan Xiaoqing held it tighter and bashfully bowed her head: "How annoying!"

Chai Asi was dazed for a bit, reciting in his heart, it’s just a mirror, it’s just a mirror, through the mirror doesn’t count...
