Chapter 301: Been Beaten Up Very Badly

“I said I would not join the Great Demons’ Alliance.” Li Peiyun frowned.

When he first came here, Hu Yan excitedly and hurriedly introduced him to the protectors of the Great Demons’ Alliance. All the protectors recognized Li Peiyun’s strength. They were naturally happy to have such a strong demon descendant joining them. However, Li Peiyun refused on the spot.

As a result, the higher-ups of the Great Demons’ Alliance did not want to see him, and Li Peiyun himself was “hidden under the snow” for some time.

“You’ll change your mind. I’ll introduce you to the Emperor of the Great Demons’ Alliance today. She’s a person who can change the world. She has great talent. When you know the real strength of the Great Demons’ Alliance, you will understand that the identity of the Demonic Priest’s descendant is nothing.” When it came to the Emperor, his eyes were blazing with heat.

Li Peiyun raised his eyebrows. “When did you become someone else’s lackey?”

He had known Hu Yan for several years. He was wise and steady. At first, Li Peiyun wanted to accept him as his henchman, just like how great men in ancient times always had a group of staff around him to provide advice.

Who would have thought that the fox, who could not open his eyes, did not lose to him in terms of pride. He refused, and termed their friendship as a cooperation. Since it was a cooperation, the two sides were equal, and there was no one who was higher or lower. Now, however, he had joined the Great Demons’ Alliance. He wanted to recruit him as well, and make him someone else’s lackey along with him.

This made Li Peiyun feel a little frustrated. However, the fanaticism of Hu Yan, as well as the worship in his eyes, ignited Li Peiyun’s curiosity and competitiveness.

It’s nice to see the leader of the Great Demons’ Alliance… he thought.

He also wanted to see what kind of person the Emperor was. Li Peiyun had seen the Unparalleled War Spirit and Wang Chen’s spirit. He felt that no one could compare to those two in terms of charisma.

“By the way, what were you doing just now?” Hu Yan asked.

“Bored. Reading the news,” Li Peiyun said.

Hu Yan slightly nodded. “Be careful, don’t be tracked, Baoze has locked on their target in Henan Province.”

Li Peiyun asked, “What are you doing? Or, what did you do?”

Hu Yan smiled mysteriously. “You will know later.”

They walked between the trees with luxuriant shrubs. There was no road on the mountain and no one needed to pull out a knife to open up the road. Li Peiyun conjured up an air of qi to form a round air shield that wrapped around them. Wherever they passed, the grass and trees seem to be pushed away by the invisible force, giving way automatically.

“By the way, how’s the power of your sword of qi?” He asked casually, putting his hands in his pockets.

“The power is not as strong as before, but the control is more arbitrary. Demonic Priest is right. The sword of qi he honed has always been separated from me. It can’t be driven at will,” Li Peiyun said lightly.

The formation of the sword of qi needed massive qi as its foundation. Li Peiyun couldn’t practice his sword of qi without Slime. Before the spirit of the Demonic Priest disintegrated, he divided the sword of qi into three parts, one of which was given to Li Peiyun, making him cross the threshold of refining the sword of qi. After that, the sword of qii could be cultivated, but only through continuous practice of qi sacrifice.

When Li Peiyun had free time, he would practice qi sacrifice. He had a strong sense of urgency. Li Xianyu was similar to him, and he had Slime with him.

In fact, Li Xianyu was more like Demonic Priest’s descendant compared to him. No matter in terms of inheritance or emotion, it was obvious that Demonic Priest and Li Xianyu were a perfect match.

Down the mountain, the houses were close to each other. Through the narrow path and the valley, they came to the cave at the end of the gathering place.

“Protector Hu!” Two strange people guarding the entrance of the cave saw Hu Yan and saluted them respectfully.

Hu Yan was a talent appreciated by the Emperor. His martial prowess was not strong, but he had a good brain. He could survive wherever he went.

Stepping into the cave, there was an energy-saving lamp on the top of the cave every ten meters, and the white light could dispel the darkness.

When Li Peiyun stepped into the cave for the first time, he looked around in silence. There were obvious traces of cutting on the four walls. The cave was very large, but it was not formed naturally.

“This is the headquarters of the Great Demons’ Alliance. We can only stay in these secluded locations before we make known our power to the public.”

“This cave has almost hollowed out the whole mountain,” said Hu Yan. “Hundreds of demon descendants who are good at drilling and dozens of demon descendants with digging powers dug it together.”

“I’m more curious about how you got along with the Great Demons’ Alliance,” Li Peiyun said.

“You’ve wanted to ask for a long time. It’s no secret.” Hu Yan smiled and continued, “Remember the time I told you about the leader of the Northeast demons’ alliance?”

Li Peiyun nodded.

“I found the alliance through her. Yes, the leader of the Northeast alliance is actually one of the protectors of the alliance. That’s when she invited me to join the Great Demons’ Alliance. I only came here once, and I promised. Do you know why?”

Before Li Peiyun answered, Hu Yan glowed and said, “I feel like I have found my organization.”

Li Peiyun was speechless. He didn’t know why, but he had a feeling of being cheated into MLM by his friends. Hu Yan was the friend who got into MLM by mistake.

After walking for more than ten minutes, they finally walked out of the corridor and into a huge cave.

The roof of the cave top was high and far, leading to the top of the mountain. There was a moon pass shining through the gap of the cave roof.

A huge round table was placed in the center of the cave. There were six protectors sitting beside the round table. All of them were holding wires overhead, and several energy-saving lamps illuminated the cave.

Li Peiyun was seeing these guys for the second time. The one wearing a black cloak was Protector Left, and the one in white cloak was Protector Right. He only knew that Protector Left was a man, while Protector Right was a woman. One was a spiritual awakener, the other possessed a hardening power. Race unknown.

Protector Left was surrounded by Protector Monkey, Protector Rat and Protector Bull. Protector Monkey was a thin young man, squatting in a chair, lively and active. His eyes scanned the crowd many times, as if they were wondering how to play tricks on people.

The human image of Protector Rat was a small, silent, middle-aged man with steady and deep eyes. Unlike the ordinary mice who had awakened, he did not have a timid temperament.

Protector Bull was more than two meters tall and full of hard muscles. He was the biggest muscle bully of the Great Demons’ Alliance. He looked like a small hill sitting there.

Beside Protector Right was Protector Dragon, who looked like a snake. The long tail of the snake was dragged behind. It was dressed like the snake demon in the gourd baby.

Hu Yan looked towards the two empty seats beside Protector Dragon. One of them was the leader of the alliance in the northeast, called Protector Roc. The other was a human demon descendant called Protector Eagle.

The Great Demons’ Alliance had eight protectors, four men and four women. Each was a peak S-class expert.

“Protector Eagle?” Hu Yan asked. Including himself, the Great Demons’ Alliance had nine guardians. If Li Peiyun were to be promised to join the Great Demons’ Alliance tonight, it would be ten protectors, comparable to the ten gods of Baoze.

Although their overall strength may not be as good as the ten gods of Baoze, after all, they could rely on him, a pseudo-protector who used his brains.

“She didn’t come.” Protector Left thought for a moment before adding, “She has been beaten up very badly.”

Hu Yan took his seat with Li Peiyun and said, “Tell me about the recent situation.”

“Wait a minute,” said the big, muscular Protector Bull, as he stared at Li Peiyun. “This is the meeting of the Great Demons’ Alliance. Outsiders are not qualified to attend.”

His eyes were cold and looked straight at Li Peiyun, who was not afraid to look back at him.

This kind of “What are you looking at” and “I’m looking at you, so what?” expressions easily caused conflict, so the atmosphere in the cave became tense, as the auras of the two S-class experts clashed.

Hu Yan knocked on the table and said, “Protector Bull, if you want to fight with him, just look for him after the meeting. I don’t think Li Peiyun will refuse. But now, we are in a meeting. If there is any personal dissatisfaction, please put it aside.”

Although he was a stranger, the thing that Hu Yan hated most was that foreign species didn’t know how to control their tempers. Even amidst the evolution of their intelligence, they were still dominated by instinct. If they wanted to mate, they would mate. If they wanted to fight, they would fight.

It had been said by human demon descendants that organizations with foreign species were ill-disciplined, which was actually true. The knowledge, cultural heritage and human history that human beings had accumulated for thousands of years could never be matched by foreign species.

Protector Left said, “Yesterday’s news from the Golden Gate Club. Baoze Group targeted them and got the form. We guessed that Baoze would plant spies into the new batch of people, so Protector Eagle and I intended to bait him to the wilderness and kill him.”

“And then, it failed? Protector Eagle was badly beaten?” Protector Rat murmured.

Protector Left nodded. “We still underestimated the heir of the Li family. We wanted to take this opportunity to capture him, but we didn’t expect that even if there was no Unparalleled War Spirit by his side, he would easily stop us by teaming up with Immortal Hua Yang.”

Li Peiyun sneered, “Didn’t you watch the video of the Forum Conference? Oh, forget it. You guys have bad signal here.”

He made no secret of his disdain. “It’s a time when information can travel all over the world in a second. If you live in such a deep forest and don’t pay attention to external information, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later.”

Several protectors raised their eyebrows and glared at him.

Hu Yan kicked Li Peiyun lightly under the table. He had no choice. During his ten years of wandering, Li Peiyun developed the character of a prodigal son. He did not want to be bound by the rules. In ancient times, he was a Ranger who travelled all over the world with his sword.

Such a person was difficult to manage and control.

However, he just had to have the key to the Great Deities Palace, and Demonic Priest’s Tri-Elements Sword Technique as well.

Protector Left continued, “The state of Immortal Hua Yang is very bizarre. She can form a human body with her primordial spirit, and stay in the world for a long time. She has some characteristics of the Yang God. However, it is known that Yin God belongs to the Gokudo Path. However, she has not reached that level. Without a quick resolution to the battle, Protector Eagle and I retreated immediately. Although we did not capture the descendant of the Li family, we succeeded in cutting off their clues.”

Hu Yan frowned. “Even Protector Eagle couldn’t defeat the heir of the Li family? It’s not very reasonable. Can you tell me about the situation at that time?”
