Chapter 708: Dog-headed Military Advisor, Unfaithful Man
Unfortunately, there is a white military advisor in the mountain.
It was its appearance that intensified the relationship between the big bull Qingsi and the eight-tailed fox spirit Madam Bai. It came to Handi Mountain more than 20 years ago. Madam Bai said that it had the blood of the ancient mythical beast Bai Ze.
The time and bloodline match.
Therefore, after meeting Ruyue, Mrs. Bai thought that she must have a relationship with Military Advisor Bai. Lao Jiang also thought so. When he set out from Qingqiu City, he told his secretary the news.
Ruyue did not show any resistance or disgust, at least not on the surface.
She did not refuse the trip to Handi Mountain, which meant that she had made up her mind. Ruyue had followed Boss Jiang from the beginning, and Boss Jiang always regarded this smart and beautiful woman as the most trustworthy person.
Nowadays, a large part of the high-level affairs of the World Tree Foundation are handled by Ruyue. She is indeed very competent and perfect in her secretary work.
Miss Bai Ze is a person with her own ideas.
Therefore, Lao Jiang was not too worried that she would do something dangerous in the impulse.
Just as they entered the demon city at the foot of the Handi Mountain, Military Advisor Bai came to provoke them. Naturally, Lao Jiang retorted rudely, even though the other party was legally his father-in-law.
But looking at what it has done, it is really hard to arouse the slightest admiration for it.
It is understandable that as a man, he cannot control his lower body, but he just pulled up his pants and ran away, leaving an alone woman to suffer the consequences.
You are a monster, born strong, how could you do such a foolish thing?
Apart from anything else, after Ru Yue's mother was disfigured and expelled from the family, did you do nothing about it? Even if you can't show up in public in the human territory, it shouldn't be difficult to find a way to provide some gold and silver aid, right?
Judging from Ruyue's experience in the first twenty years of her life, this military advisor Bai really ran away after having his fun.
This kind of thing really makes Jiang Zemin despise it.
He was about to yell a few more words to vent his anger, but Ruyue stopped him. The secretary behind Boss Jiang said softly in a calm tone:
"Boss, it's important. You and Liu Hui should go and prepare for the meeting with the Great Sage Qing Si. I will handle my own affairs, so please don't interfere."
"Can you do it?"
The silly monster next to her was also clenching her fists, looking indignant. She whispered to Ruyue:
"How about I go with you? Anyway, I'm here just to make up the numbers. It's fine as long as the boss goes to see Qingsi Daniu. It doesn't matter whether I'm there or not.
I can help you catch that White Advisor. Look, I have prepared the chains to tie him up."
As Liu Hui spoke, she actually took out a black chain from her ring and shook it in her hand, making a clacking sound. She had a good relationship with Ruyue and was usually taken care of by her, just like a close friend.
Of course she couldn't tolerate her best friend being bullied.
"I'll go alone."
Ruyue still declined Liu Hui's help. She said in a gentle tone as usual, but in a way that would not suffice:
"This is my family business."
"Oh well. "
The silly monster curled his lips and looked at Boss Jiang again. The latter picked up the sword in his hand, said a few words to the Xuantian spirit, and then stuffed the Xuantian sword into Ruyue's hand.
He said:
"If you see it and find that the monster is really not a human, don't waste any more words, just chop it down with a sword, just to have peace of mind, take its head back, and sacrifice it to your mother."
"The boss is joking."
The secretary smiled and did not refuse the spiritual sword. She brushed her hair and said softly:
"We are guests in Han Di Mountain. How can we draw our swords and kill their military advisors on their territory? If we really do something like that, even if the Great Sage Qing Si is merciful, he will not allow us to leave here."
"Then why do you think Mrs. Bai brought us here?"
Old Jiang sneered and said:
"Just do it boldly. If we kill that military advisor Bai, our fox goddess will be so happy. She will definitely find a way to protect us.
Besides, we are no longer the rookies who no one could afford to offend us. If we dare to come to Handi Mountain, I am naturally confident.
In this situation, there is really no need for you to suffer.
Don't even think about sacrificing yourself for my great cause. I'm not weak enough to require the woman I love to sacrifice herself for my great cause. Just indulge yourself today.
Just do what’s in your mind, don’t worry about the rest, I’ll take care of everything.”
These words made Ruyue hesitate for a moment. She looked at Boss Jiang, and after a few breaths, she pursed her lips and said:
"Yes, I understand."
After saying that, she let out a long breath, followed the place where the divine thought had just originated, and walked to the other side of the demon city under the Handi Mountain. Lao Jiang watched Ruyue leave, touched the Ming Snake puppet wrapped around his arm, and snapped his fingers to Liu Hui beside him.
explain:
"Let's go too, and meet that Great Sage Qing Si... Well, the young couple has been separated for more than 20 years, and they just met each other. I guess they have a lot of private things to say to each other.
It seems that there will be some waiting this time.
Let's take a walk around their regretful city first. This is a famous restricted area for human cultivators in Kumu Realm. Few people have been here, let alone the local scenery.
It’s well worth a look.”
——
On the other side, Ruyue was walking alone in the Handi City, holding the Xuantian sword.
There were monsters of all sizes around her, baring their teeth at her, and some even wanted to pounce out of their caves and swallow this bold human cultivator in one gulp to satisfy their hunger.
With the banner raised by the Great Sage Qingsi in his rebellion against the Immortal Alliance, the monsters that gathered at the foot of the Handi Mountain naturally hated the human cultivators and the Immortal Alliance to the core.
There is also a great sage from the demon race in charge here, and for the past two hundred years, it has been a true forbidden area for the human race.
But Ruyue was not afraid.
She didn't even pay attention to the little demons around her who were constantly provoking her.
She was a little confused at the moment, even though she appeared to be very calm, but when the time came, how could she be calm?
When she and Lao Jiang had their first Red Moon Dream in the Red Moon Realm, her inner demon was outlined in that great illusion. Boss Jiang could see clearly that Ru Yue's inner demon was the Bai Ze monster that had harmed her mother.
She held the Xuantian sword in her hand, her fingers clasped on the Kunxuan scabbard, and her slender jade fingers had left white marks.
Walking forward to the street corner, a monster finally couldn't bear the anger in its heart anymore, and pounced towards Ruyue with its fangs and claws bared. As if taking the lead, the black bear-like monster rushed forward, and a large group of monsters of all sizes followed behind it.
Ruyue's left hand also grasped the hilt of the sword. The spiritual treasure was about to be unsheathed. With the power of the Heaven-Slaying Sword, these little monsters would be killed with just one sword.
However, as the sharp blade was pulled out of the scabbard an inch, two black shadows fell from the sky outside the cave in the mountain of the demon city ahead, smashing the ground when they landed. With a harsh shout, the little demons that pounced on Ruyue were all driven back.
Two black bull monsters wearing armor held large axes in their hands, releasing demonic energy to attack both sides, while one on the left and one on the right protected Ruyue in the center.
"Go back, you useless thing!"
The bull demon with a broken horn on the left widened its eyes and shouted to the surrounding demons:
"This is the guest of the King and his wife. If you dare to be rude again, I will drive you all out of the city . If you really have the ability, go to the East to show off your power!"
This bull demon was a great demon in the realm of spiritual cultivation. He was full of brutal demonic energy and was able to calm the situation, forcing those restless little demons to retreat back into their respective caves.
The bull demon with a golden ring on its nose on the right was leaning on an axe, looking down at Ruyue, and said in a muffled and unfriendly voice:
"You are a human girl with quite some courage. You dare to walk alone in my Handi City. I admire you . Come with me. Military Advisor Bai wants to see you."
"Doesn't it dare to come?"
Ruyue sneered and said unceremoniously:
"I have done something bad, but now I know how to cover it up."
"Girl, don't say too much."
The bull demon with a golden ring on his nose snorted, leaned on his weapon, and said nothing. He just waved his hand and took Ruyue to the foot of the mountain where the demon city was.
These bull monsters who have achieved great success in their cultivation are all the trusted generals of the Great Sage Qingsi and have very high status in the Handi Mountain. With this great monster leading the way, the rest of the journey will be smooth.
Military Advisor Bai's cave was at the foot of the mountain. Unlike ordinary monsters who simply dug a cave in the mountains, he built an exquisite courtyard for himself.
The shape and everything else are very similar to those built in the East.
Two bull demons escorted Ruyue over. They didn't say much, just made a "please" gesture, then turned around and left, returning to their own guarding place.
Judging from their appearance, they should be sent by the Great Sage Qingsi to protect the military advisor. It seems that this military advisor Bai's status in Handi Mountain is indeed extraordinary.
Ruyue flexed her fingers, took a deep breath, and pushed open the door in front of her.
Military Advisor Bai didn't do anything mysterious, nor did he hide his identity. When Ruyue walked into the courtyard, he saw it... Well, it would be more appropriate to call him "him".
"you……"
Miss Bai Ze was stunned for a moment, looking at the man in white in front of her, she said in a surprised tone:
"You're not a monster, you're a..."
"Like you, I am a 'half-demon'."
Standing by the stone table in the center of the courtyard, the man in white long-sleeved clothes turned around and looked Ruyue up and down, his tone without any surprise or shame.
Just said calmly:
“I was also born as a human, but before I turned sixteen, I didn’t know I still had half Bai Ze blood in me.
My father, your grandfather, told me the night my blood was revived that people like us are born with one more choice than ordinary people.
Whether to be a human or a monster is up to you.
Just like you choose to be a human being.
As for me…I still have a human form, but in my heart, I am probably already a real monster.”
This person has a nice voice.
He has a special magnetism. If you only listen to his voice, you can imagine the appearance of a gentle young man. But as he said, although he still has a human form, there is a thick layer of demonic energy surrounding his body.
No wonder he was able to integrate into the Handishan group, which is very rude to humans.
As for his appearance.
Not a good review.
Because his face was covered with scars, it looked like it had been cut in half by a sharp blade and then grown back together, but judging by the shape of his cheeks and his eyes, he did resemble Ruzuki in some ways.
They are definitely father and daughter.
Ruyue had mixed emotions in her heart, just by looking at the face in front of her she knew that he must have encountered something terrible, and it must have been after he abandoned his mother.
Because until her death, the mother was still talking about how handsome and kind-hearted this unfaithful man was.
"Why did you...just leave without saying goodbye?"
She asked bluntly:
"Do you know what kind of life my mother and I have been living since you left?"
"I know."
Military Advisor Bai put his hands behind his back and said with no sadness or joy in his eyes:
"I saw it with my own eyes. I was so impulsive at that time that I wanted to rush into the mansion and rescue you and your daughter. But people in this world say that Bai Ze is a beast of fortune and luck, and is the best at turning misfortune into good fortune.
However, they don’t know that the energy of Lord Bai Zewang can only bring luck to others, but cannot be used on ourselves.
"Did you know that there are evil cultivators entrenched in Fengming Country?"
"Know."
Kisara pursed her lips and said:
"The city gods in the capital have all been drawn into the evil ways. For many years, they have been secretly assisting the evil cultivators in the Southern Wilderness Star Valley, plundering souls and doing things that defy the will of heaven."
"Just so you know."
Military Advisor Bai laughed, touched his face that could scare a child to tears, and said:
"Then I need not tell you any more about what I encountered there.
You call yourself "Ruyue"? This doesn't sound like a proper name. I mentioned this to your mother when we were together. I named you..."
"My name is Kisaragi!"
Miss Bai Ze interrupted the man abruptly. She grabbed the sword in her hand and said coldly:
"I am a prostitute from Fengyang City in Fengming Country. I was born in a brothel, but I am not ashamed of it. I was the one who saved my mother and died on her bed.
The reason my mother and I survived was because my mother was kind-hearted, and it has nothing to do with you.
And if we had died back then, this debt would have been put on you!"
