TWSFLD-Chapter 85: Wave After Wave

In this lifetime, the old man had seen many people, humans, demons, and even other races, such as the Monster Clan, the Yan Clan, and so on.

But he’s seeing someone this shameless for the first time.

The old man vaguely felt a bit of pain in his left shoulder.

How could it not hurt?!

He had just removed his left arm!

Then thinking of the hundred thousand demon soldiers and generals whose souls had scattered, he gritted his teeth.

“You’re called Feng Xi?”

Feng Xi nodded, “Unworthy as I am, it is precisely this humble one.”

Old man: “……”

“The so-called friendly coexistence between the human race and the demon race that you mentioned earlier, that was made up, right?”

Feng Xi nodded, “Yes. This story is purely fictional. If there are any similarities, they are purely coincidental.”

The old man suddenly didn’t want to speak to her anymore and simply wanted to slap her to death!

But thinking of his unfulfilled wish, he could only grind his back teeth and say, “Do you know what this city is called?”

Feng Xi shook her head, “I don’t know. When I came in, I didn’t see any plaque on the city gate. Could it be called Nameless City?”

Old man: “…You guessed right.”

This was simply outrageous!

In order not to anger himself to death, he didn’t even use interrogative sentences anymore and directly said, “The reason it’s called Nameless City is not because it’s too small to deserve a name, but because this is a city that can move.

To be precise, it is a teleportation demonic artifact that can instantaneously shift locations.

The demon race relied on Nameless City to launch several sneak attacks on the human race, and each time achieved great victories.

It’s just that during one sneak attack on the human race, Nameless City lost its direction and fell into the core region of the Extreme Cold Ice Plains.

The core region is extremely cold, and there are countless Soul Transformation Stage demonic beasts. We only held on for one month before the city was destroyed and the people perished…”

Feng Xi thought through all the sad things in this lifetime before she managed not to laugh out loud.

These demons really know how to fool around!

Wave after wave!

In the end, they fooled around until they killed themselves!

The old man was immersed in grief and didn’t notice the change in Feng Xi’s expression.

Of course, even if he had noticed, a certain Xi’s expression at this moment was extremely sorrowful!

Anyone who didn’t know would think her third aunt and sixth uncle were all inside Nameless City.

The old man calmed himself for a moment before saying, “After Nameless City met with disaster, we were never able to contact the outside world.

So now I only have one wish, that someone will inform the demon race of the truth of what happened.

Let everyone in the demon race know that the hundred thousand soldiers of Nameless City didn’t flee in the face of battle, but mistakenly entered the core region of the Extreme Cold Ice Plains and all perished in the line of duty.”

Feng Xi blinked, “That’s it?”

The old man nodded, “You may find this wish somewhat laughable, but this has been our obsession for tens of thousands of years.

We do not fear life and death, because this is our mission as demon soldiers.

But we do not wish to receive an unjust evaluation after death.”

Everyone present was somewhat moved.

Perhaps it was the old man’s obsession, perhaps it was the fearlessness of death of the demon soldiers, perhaps it was the insignificance of all living beings in the long river of time…

No one knew exactly which point struck the softest place in their hearts.

At this moment, whether the old man was human or demon was no longer important.

Some fine qualities do not distinguish race.

Feng Xi’s words broke this feeling of being moved.

“Senior, you’ve been talking for so long and still haven’t said what benefits you’re giving me!

If there’s no benefit, I’m not doing it!”

Old man: “……”

Everyone: “……”

The old man took a deep breath, “There are naturally benefits!

Although only the core region of the Extreme Cold Ice Plains produces Ice Souls, ten thousand years ago there was an earthquake, and some Ice Souls were pushed to the peripheral region.

If you agree to my request and swear a poisonous oath, I will tell you the location of those Ice Souls.”

Feng Xi’s eyes lit up, “How many? Several tens of thousands?”

Old man: “……”

Several tens of thousands?

Do you think Ice Souls are like those broken stones you took out?!

Thinking of this made him even angrier!

The previous group paid spirit stones. This little girl instead gave a pile of broken stones!

“Probably several dozen. As for how many you can capture, that depends on your own ability.”

Feng Xi immediately deflated!

“Only that little!

Fine, since you’re quite pitiful, I’ll reluctantly agree.”

Old man: “……”

Did you know that a single thousand-year Ice Soul can sell for several million spirit stones on the market?

If you can capture a ten-thousand-year Ice Soul, then it’s no longer a matter of several million spirit stones!

But hundreds of millions of spirit stones!

Feng Xi immediately began to swear a poisonous oath, “I, Feng Xi, hereby swear that, under the premise of not endangering my life, when time permits, cultivation permits, and the greater environment permits, I will inform the demon race of the matters of Nameless City.

If I violate this oath, then let me become a useless Five Spiritual Roots!”

Old man: “……”

Everyone: “……”

This was the first time they had heard someone add so many prerequisite conditions to a poisonous oath!

However, this oath was indeed poisonous.

A useless Five Spiritual Roots wasn’t much different from being unable to cultivate.

The old man kept his word and immediately gave Feng Xi a map marking the location of the Ice Souls.

It was indeed in the peripheral region.

Feng Xi smilingly put away the map, then asked, “Old master, what about the previous group that came in?”

The old man, who had gone from “Senior” to “Old master”: “……”

Now that I have no more value to be squeezed, you don’t even call me Senior anymore?

Nevertheless, he still said, “Those people were too foolish. They actually thought that if they killed all my demon soldiers, I would hand over the demon race’s important treasure to them. That’s simply a fool’s dream!

I teleported them to the interior of the Extreme Cold Ice Plains. Whether they can come out alive depends on their fortune.”

Feng Xi’s mood instantly brightened considerably!

She blinked, “From what you said, Ice Souls aren’t the demon race’s important treasure you mentioned earlier, right?

I painstakingly delivered your hundred thousand demon soldiers and generals, yet you plan to hide things away. Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?!

Whether humans or demons, both know that once a promise is made, even four horses cannot chase it back. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to go back on your word?”

Old man: “……”

You fooled my demon soldiers and generals into having their souls scatter and left me a lone commander. I still have to thank you? And still have to give you the demon race’s important treasure?

How can you be so shameless?!

He coldly snorted, “Even if I give you the demon race’s important treasure, you cannot take it away!

The important treasure I spoke of is Nameless City, and the wreckage of Nameless City is still in the core region of the Extreme Cold Ice Plains. Can you obtain it?”

Feng Xi blinked, “Whether I can obtain it is another matter. The question is, are you giving it to me or not?

If you don’t give it to me, then when I go to the demon race to deliver your message, my mouth may not have a gate on it!

Perhaps your reputation won’t be preserved!”

Old man: “……”

Over these tens of thousands of years, what…mutation has happened to the human race?

Otherwise, how could such a shameless person appear!
