Three World Swordsman
064: Demon Valley Dwellers
The fight was stopped as a dense killing Aura radiated from the back row of the stealth animals.
The killing aura came from a lion of the largest size ridden by a dwarf man with a sinister face.
Groooaarrrr
The stealth animals, immediately moved to give way to the Lion Demon who was the leader and King of the Demon Beasts.
Yu Ma and the other elders immediately leapt back closer to Yao Chan. Zhu Yin as well. Not with Yu Lian.
With the Fire Dragon Whip in his hand, Yu Lian actually floated against the Lion Demon King.
The Dwarf Man riding on that Demon King, looking wide open his eyes with his mouth open, found a girl could float in the air.
While the Lion Demon King, suddenly paused and silently stared, The gaze of his eyes that had originally emitted savagery had now turned into a frightened look at the whip in Yu Lian's hands.
"Wait for Lian'er.don't attack first!" Yao Chan shouted holding back Yu Lian who was about to drain her inner strength. Yao Chan shot into the air and a second later was already beside Yu Lian.
"Chan Gege.. Why are you holding me back?" Yu Lian's forehead shriveled hearing Yao Chan prevent her.
"Be calm first, for it seems that their leader is about to speak to us."
After answering Yu Lian's question, Yao Chan immediately floated lower to align his height with the leader of the group.
All Demon Beasts, immediately stand by to attack Yao Chan. But the dwarf man, who was about in his fifties, raised his hand and all the animals and riders fell silent at once.
The Dwarf man looked at Yao Chan with an investigative look, his mind filled with the question of how could a person without having wings be able to soar through the air like a bird.
"I'm sorry, sir. What is the problem that the inhabitants of the Demon Valley came to us residents of the plains.?"
Yao Chan said stammeredly as this was the first time he had used their language. Yao Chan who had Qin Yun memories, easily recognized who they were. And based on Qin Yun's memories anyway, Yao Chan was able to speak in their language.
The face of the dwarf man looked very surprised at Yao Chan's words. As he remembered, he had never met any human inhabitants of the plains land other than the figure of the Old Man named Qin Yun.
"Who are you!? why are you speaking our language?"
The dwarf did not answer Yao Chan's question, he was too surprised to ask Yao Chan. This made Yao Chan smile, an idea in his mind.
"Mr Shouren.I am the grandson of Grandfather Qin Yun who once came to you in the demon valley."
The man called Shouren by Yao Chan, looked surprised as his name was called by the young man before him. But when Yao Chan mentioned Qin Yun's grandson, Shouren was finally able to understand the situation.
"Ooh so you're the grandson of Qin Yun the liar!? Tell me where your grandfather is now!?"
Shouren's impact made Yao Chan gasp. It was only then realized that Qin Yun had promised to return to the Demon Valley and give Shouren the Blood Jade Scepter and exchange it for a stone as big as a fist that was heart-shaped and pitch-black.
"I'm sorry Mr. Shouren, a week ago I met Grandpa Qin, he left the Blood Jade Stick to me. Then ask me to drive to the Demon Valley to meet you and exchange his Blood Jade Stick for the black stone."
Yao Chan was grateful, just after killing Qin Yun a few days ago, he also took the Blood Jade Scepter and inserted it into his Dimension Space Bracelet.
Yao Chan's explanation made Shouren speechless. He wanted to not believe Yao Chan's words. But when he remembered that the agreement was only the two of them who knew about it, Shouren finally smiled.
"If the stick is on you, can you show it to me?" Shouren asked as he looked at Yao Chan who was seen carrying only a sword.
Yao Chan who had expected this, immediately took out the Blood Jade Scepter from his Dimension Space Bracelet. It made all who saw it surprised, as it saw a stick as if it had emerged from void space.
"Hows it? do you still not believe it? now show me that Black Heart Stone" Yao Chan asked
"Well I believe you, the Black Stone is in the Valley of the Demons let's follow me back to the Valley of the Demons." Shouren replied with a commanding tone Yao Chan.
Hearing that Yao Chan frowned.
"I can't go with you right now, because I'm on my way to meet someone and I promised him. Of course you're not gonna force me to break that promise, are you?"
From Qin Yun's memories, Yao Chan learns that Shouren is the one who upholds about promises. That is why he answered so.
"Alright, I will wait for you for a month in the Demon Valley. But if you lie, then I will seek you out and kill all the humans of the Flatland that I meet."
Shouren finally finished their conversation, then turned around and spurred the Lion Demon King who immediately darted very quickly, which was then followed by other stealth animals.
The Lion Demon King who had been trembling with the Whip in Yu Lian's hands, tried to leave as quickly as possible. The Lion Demon King was faintly able to sense the terrifying Fire Dragon God Aura continuously intimidating him.
Yao Chan patted his head, realizing the future danger of lying to Shouren. It was actually easy for him to kill them all. Yet Yao Chan found no reason to do so at the moment.
"Chan Gege, what exactly do they want? why did you let them just leave?"
Yao Chan did not answer Yu Lian's question, but invited Yu Lian to return to where Yu Ma and the others were.
Arriving before Yu Ma, Yao Chan again received the same question as Yu Lian had asked.
"Uncle.they're looking for the man we just killed some time ago, the goal is to collect a promise to him." Yao Chan replied as he sighed.
Yao Chan began to explain who they were and where they came from as well as the purpose of their arrival. Yao Chan also explained the reason the commander and some of the village guard soldiers who were killed were killed by them.
"The Demon Valley so far I've never found their exact location, who exactly are they?" Yu Ma nodded to himself.
