Chapter 706: Chapter 256: Zhou Shen Explores the Demon Ancestor Secret Land, Heavenly Secrets of Killing Revealed (Seeking Monthly Pass!!!) _2
As for the chaos in the Surface World of the Beast Swamp, it doesn’t bother Liang Sheng, as these are mere trivial details he doesn’t need to worry about.
The top priority right now is to get Zhou Shen to enter the Demon Ancestor Secret Land. If the scene continues to unfold according to the Law of Cause and Effect, there might be some unexpected surprises ahead.
Of course, with every surprise comes a price. But after weighing the benefits and drawbacks, Liang Sheng still decides to let Zhou Shen have a try.
Does the Sky Covering Sect, which is the pursuit of the truth, have any other secrets?
All of this depends on what secrets Zhou Shen can uncover with his Sky Covering Sect’s bloodline ability in the Desolate Regions.
…
The teahouse.
Zhou Shen sips his tea leisurely on the surface, but inside, he is on full alert, carefully observing the moves around him. Fortunately, no unusual events occur even after a long while.
The Herbal Medicine Hall is bustling with people. Whether human or demon, everyone seems to be in high demand for the herbs.
Either for pill refining or for medical treatment – in any case, the supplies are scarce.
Neither the shopkeeper nor the assistant have exhibited any abnormal behavior, which solidifies Zhou Shen’s determination to proceed.
As the fluorescent light of the Underground World dims, Zhou Shen has already hidden himself in the backyard of the Herbal Medicine Hall. He sneakily scouts around without alerting anyone.
However, his exploration turns out ordinary until he reaches the backyard and sees the locust tree.
Who would plant a locust tree in their backyard?
If such a thing happened in the human world, the owner would be scolded relentlessly. As Zhou Shen approaches the locust tree, the Auspicious Ability to Avoid Evil fills his heart with a great fortune omen.
It’s almost borderline madness.
It’s as if this locust tree is some divine opportunity for Zhou Shen.
Zhou Shen cautiously reaches out to touch the giant locust tree. Before he can figure anything out, he suddenly vanishes.
Elsewhere, Hu Fei and others instinctively turn their heads towards Huang Feng with peculiar expressions. Huang Feng quickly explains with a dry laugh.
“I was just fed up with this human dilly-dallying about. Since we’ve decided to let him enter the Demon Ancestor Secret Land, why not speed it up a bit?”
No one contests his words because it doesn’t matter what happens in-between. As long as the outcome is in their favor, it’s all good.
Given that this human has already noticed the locust tree, even if they don’t intervene, his entrance to the secret land would just be a matter of time.
With this in mind, all the demonic ancestors silently appear and follow Zhou Shen into the Demon Ancestor Secret Land.
They wish to see what makes this human so special that the fate of the Demon Clan relies on his intervention.
No matter the result, there’s a tinge of disgruntlement in their hearts. They can only hope the final outcome will be favorable.
