JSCMU-Chapter 402: Keep Smiling

Yun Jin had previously secretly notified Ji Wusi and the others that something might happen at Tianxing Sect.

They should already be on their way.

They couldn’t handle this cocoon, so Yun Jin thought that perhaps the holy lands might have a way.

It didn’t matter if the Demon Lord revived.

After reviving, they could just kill him again.

Yun Jin glanced at Yang Yun’s Qi Luck on the system panel.

After this incident, Yang Yun’s Qi Luck had directly dropped to 67. If it dropped a bit more, it would fall below 60.

Yun Jin could receive two more rewards then.

But she wasn’t in a hurry to claim them.

She was thinking.

Even in this situation, Yang Yun’s Qi Luck was still quite high.

There would probably be more unexpected developments in the future.

Could he still escape even in this situation?

Yun Jin was rather looking forward to seeing how strong the male lead’s plot armor truly was.

The people from the Demon-Destroying Alliance who had arrived were still somewhat hesitant.

Yun Jin smiled and directly took out a recording stone, “I recorded what happened just now. The seniors can take a look.”

Having a recording stone was ideal.

They instinctively accepted it.

Yun Jin turned around and instructed the Giant Lava Dragon to guard the cocoon, ensuring that Yang Yun couldn’t escape.

The others began cleaning up the battlefield.

The scene quickly became orderly.

The members of the Demon-Destroying Alliance were a bit confused.

Even since they joined the Demon-Destroying Alliance, when had they never been the ones in control wherever they went?

But here at Tianxing Sect, aside from being shocked, it seemed they had nothing to do.

That little girl had already arranged everything.

“Should we watch the recording first?” someone suggested.

The others nodded.

Before watching, they hadn’t expected that this small Tianxing Sect had gone through such dramatic events during the night.

When they saw the Giant Lava Dragon take action, they couldn’t help but look at Old Fire.

This somewhat simple-looking warrior was actually a super grade spirit beast, and his combat power was terrifying!

Old Fire bared his teeth and gave them a friendly smile.

Under normal circumstances, it would indeed look friendly.

But recalling how he had effortlessly crushed Mahayana Stage experts one by one, they felt a chill in their hearts.

Such a terrifying existence was obediently following that little girl’s instructions, sitting there guarding a cocoon.

“Do you think… there’s really a Demon Lord inside?” someone whispered.

“Hard to say.”

“Let’s interrogate that Mahayana Stage demon first.”

“Who’s going to do it?”

They looked at each other.

Yun Jin had said to hand the interrogation to the Demon-Destroying Alliance.

But that Mahayana Stage demon was still under Tianxing Sect’s custody, they had no intention of handing him over.

This Yun Jin had said this matter would be handled by others, perhaps she also planned on handing that demon to someone else.

“This doesn’t follow protocol.”

“Matters involving demons should be handled by the Demon-Destroying Alliance.”

“That’s right.”

“Then who will say it?”

They fell silent again, all looking at the simple-looking warrior.

Who would dare?

What if they got slapped to death with one claw?

“It shouldn’t be that dangerous. I’ll go test the waters,” said a young baby-faced man, gathering his courage.

“Lin Feng, we’re counting on you,” the others said as they stepped back.

Lin Feng nearly cried as he glanced at his unreliable companions and slowly approached Old Fire.

Old Fire looked up at him and showed a small-toothed smile.

The little master had instructed him to be friendly.

Smiling was the best way to show friendliness, right?

Lin Feng shivered.

Oh mom.

He had heard that some evil spirit beasts ate people.

This dragon wouldn’t eat people, would it?!

His smile stiffened into something like a grimace.

He said softly, “Senior Dragon.”

“Yes!” Old Fire responded loudly.

His booming voice made Lin Feng tremble again.

“What is it?” Old Fire leaned closer and asked loudly.

Along with the loud voice came a strong breath.

Lin Feng was nearly knocked out by the smell.

Was this…

Dragon’s breath?

In a daze, he said, “Senior Dragon, I just wanted to ask… you seem to listen to that little girl a lot.”

Old Fire sighed, “I have no choice. She’s my little master, and… my child is in her hands.”

Thinking of his ungrateful child, Old Fire felt troubled.

Lin Feng was stunned, “Your child?”

“Yes,” Old Fire said, clearly unwilling to discuss it further.

Lin Feng immediately felt sympathy.

That little girl looked very cute, but who could’ve thought that her methods were so ruthless.

She’s even using a child to control such a powerful being.

“So you willingly became a spirit beast of Wushuang Sect?” Lin Feng asked.

Old Fire sighed again, “I lost in a fight.”

Lin Feng immediately understood. He patted Old Fire’s shoulder, “Don’t worry. The Demon-Destroying Alliance stands for justice! I’ll report this immediately. People from above will arrive soon. If you don’t want this, we will definitely help you escape.”

Old Fire thought he didn’t quite understand.

The little master had also said that if he didn’t understand, he should just keep smiling.

So he gave Lin Feng a bright smile.

Lin Feng thought Old Fire was thanking him and felt warm inside.

He quickly returned to the group.

“How did it go?” the others asked.

“That little girl is extremely ruthless. Don’t be fooled by how powerful the dragon is, he’s actually quite pitiful…” Lin Feng elaborated, telling an exaggerated story he had imagined about a tragic dragon forced into servitude by humans.

The others listened in silence.

“Isn’t that tragic?” Lin Feng asked, confused.

“So, what exactly were we asking you to do?” someone calmly pointed out.

“Test the situation about the Demon Lord,” Lin Feng replied instinctively.

Everyone stared at him.

Lin Feng instantly felt embarrassed.

He had been too distracted by the story.

“Should I try again?” he asked.

“Forget it. Going again might alert them,” the leader said. “Listen to me. I’ll report this situation first. This matter is too significant, higher-level personnel will arrive soon to handle it.”

“You all go help clean up the battlefield and keep an eye on the captured demon.”

“They said the cocoon contains the Demon Lord, let’s leave someone to watch it. Do nothing until higher-ups arrive.”

Everyone agreed.

The leader took a deep breath and reported the situation along with part of the recording.

He knew his limits, this matter was beyond him.

Everything would wait until higher-ups arrived.

The battlefield was quickly cleaned up. Tianxing Sect even reopened the banquet to host the members of the Demon-Destroying Alliance.

They hadn’t planned to leave anyway, so they agreed.

By dawn, most people were already a bit drunk.

In the sky, several streaks of light shot across.

“Me… meteors…” Lin Feng murmured in a daze.
