Chapter 134: Mount Chui Ping

In actual fact, the Water Deer Demon was not only stupid but was also paranoid.

Shen Lian shook his head and smile, with pity in his eyes. Because only the kind of people who craved to be taken seriously but had not been taken seriously would behave that way.

The human world did not lack that kind of people, they were not considered as amiable, and they were considered lucky for being to be alive.

But, it was unfortunate for the Water Deer demon to have met Shen Lian. He did not understand the look in Shen Lian’s eyes but he automatically hated it.

He could not help but stabbed the steel fork in his hands towards Shen Lian. As long as demons like him that were transformed from beasts, he naturally possessed a lot of strength. Even though the steel fork was no instrument but it was craft from good steel, albeit the craftsmanship was a little rough. Shen Lian was able to see that the head of the fork was not sharp and it was not sharpen properly.

Shen Lian’s expression did not change, he only gently extended a finger and withstood the steel for. At the same time, there was a thin layer of orange light blocking the head of the fork from the pad of his fingers.

The Water Deer Demon was extremely strong. There was a time the king wanted to copy the humans and build a palace. Those being the lower class demons were the coolies. Every one of them had to gather giant boulders from the mountains and carry it back, those boulders were the size of an adult human. It was heavier than Shen Lian. Even if he was that stupid, he still knew that a boulder would be heavier than a fleshy body of the same size.

But the steel fork could not even hurt the pad of Shen Lian’s finger, he could not even pushed against Shen Lian with his strength. The pointy tip of the fork stood against the thin orange sheet of light, the sheet of light was like flowing water. Even when he used all of his might, it could not even penetrated a small bit.

Even with the low intelligence of the Water Deer Demon, he knew that something was up. He has messed with someone who he should not be messing with. The lower class demons were shallow and ignorant, but they also knew that there were humans in this universe who were as scary as their king. The king call these humans, cultivators.

The king mentioned that the taste of cultivator was different from that of a normal human. The Water Deer Demon asked the king whether she had eaten the flesh of a cultivator. The king did not answer. From that day on, the Water Deer Demon did the hardest and most exhausting labor amongst the other lower class demons. He did not feel that it was hard or tiring, he felt that the king held him as an important player.

But the other demons did not think so. The look they gave him was similar to the one Shen Lian had given him a moment ago, nonetheless, there was still some difference.

He was more than unhappy with the look he received from other demons but he could not beat them either.

As for Shen Lian, it was not a matter of whether of fighting him. There was green stream of air that separated from Shen Lian’s finger and it twisted the steel fork. The fork spun round and round very quickly. The fork flew out from his hair and with the high velocity of the spinning, it embedded itself till the tip into the rocks far away. Those rocks had gone through rain and wind and still stood on the mountains, so naturally it was as tough as it could be. The steel fork was not extremely sharp but to be able to skewer the rocks to its tip, it could be seen but how terrifying the power of the green stream of air used by Shen Lian just now.

Since the start of his cultivation, Shen Lian did not really follow the rules when it came to casual fights. He only needed to improvise with what he had.

Shen Lian stared at the Water Deer Demon. His expression was not monstrous but the demon felt that Shen Lian was more horrifying than ever.

Regardless of humans or animals, they had the natural instinct to sense danger. Shen Lian simply stood but the pressure he felt was the same when he first met that tiger in the mountains before the king helped him with his transformation. No, Shen Lian was scarier than the tiger in his eyes. After all, there were moment when the tiger would rest but the way Shen Lian stared at him was as though if Shen Lian pleases, he could do this until the end of time without needing to break his concentration.

The clouds shifted in the blue skies and the mountain breeze soughed through the pines. The rustling of the wind came closer. At the same time the river deer demon heard the breeze, he too heard Shen Lian’s voice.

He only heard Shen Lian quietly asked him, “Who is your king?” His tone was not heavy but the demon automatically answered, “The king is the king. This Mount Chui Ping is under her rule.”

“She sounds formidable. How about this, why don’t you bring me to meet this king of yours. I have a matter to ask her,” Shen Lian asked with mirth. The Water Deer Demon felt that there was no good intention behind that smile.

He asked hesitantly, “What would you ask my king?”

“I will ask later.” Shen Lian shook his head, his look suggests he did not want to ask.

The Water Deer Demon said, “Let me tell you, my king is really formidable. It would be your death when you meet her.”

Shen Lian contemplated the Water Deer Demon with delight, he responded, “You still have this bit of loyalty but once you’re dead, what use is there for this loyalty? Your king would not even shed a tear for you.” Demons were indifferent to feelings, especially demons who have cultivated to the stage of demon king. Which of them did not go through great bloodshed? Their hearts had hardened like stone and even though they look kind on the outside, their actual nature were quite unconcerned.

Take Jingqing for example, even though he had some humanity in him, by nature, he was still indifferent. Even though it could also be his snake nature, but his experience and upbringing played a role too.

Even though he knew his king was formidable, he did not want to cause trouble for the king. Shen Lian was a trouble. He did not think Shen Lian had seen through his thoughts. There was nothing superior about it. After all, to a demon, there was no point in using the brain to resolve matters that a fist cannot. Now that he had conversed a little more with Shen Lian, he was not that afraid of Shen Lian anymore. With some pride he responded, “I am of greatest importance to my king. You would not understand.” The look in his eyes were full of respect.

Shen Lian quietly warned, “You will end up like those rocks if you do not bring me to her.” Shen Lian was by the side of the rocks in the blink of an eye. He did not pulled the fork out but with a wave of purple stream of air from his hands landing on top of the rock, the rocks were rendered to a pile of mushy soil with the fork lying inside it.

The Water Deer Demon was scared and speechless, as though imagining himself becoming a pile of meat grindings. Shen Lian then followed nonchalantly, “Are we not moving?”

Of course, Shen Lian did not have the thought of convincing the Water Deer Demon to betray his master. He only thought that this demon was dumb and silly but he also had a simple honesty to him. He spoke a few more sentences with him because his interest was piqued. Even the celestial beings would wandered through the mortal world and take liberties with the mortal. It was a kind of delight.

Shen Lian did not think that celestial beings had to be cold and merciless, ignoring everything and focus solely on the pursuit of Dao. People were alive because of the excitement of this world, this was why they could not bear to die. There was no difference between a rock on the mountain and someone who was old fashion and inflexible. There were many joys in the many beings of this universe. Even a red leaf flying within the mountains, as long as one focuses on the veins of the leaf, they could also discover many interesting things about it.

Without waiting for the Water Deer Demon to yield, an ominous voice scolded from above, “You’ve been ordered to capture a human, why are you still dilly dallying since you’ve already gotten the human? And you still haven’t tied him up.”

The voice from the skies above. There was an eagle in the sky, it was really burly as it circled above both the demon and human. With its wings spread, a shadow loomed over both their heads, like a dark cloud in the sky.

This eagle was a demon and his mana was quite powerful.

The eagle quickly landed on the ground and turned into a monster with the head of an eagle and the body of a human. He stared at Shen Lian and nodded his head in satisfaction, “This one doesn’t look bad, he’s actually quite fresh and tender.”
