Chapter Thirty-Two: Return and Depart
eturned from the Tianfu Secret Realm successfully. Sometimes, even in his dreams at midnight, he would see Zhú Sùyuè baring her teeth and claws.And when the quota for the Imperial Secret Realm was rel...The red moon hung high, silently illuminating the desolate expanse of Tianxi.
The child of the wasteland, slumbering since time immemorial.
A truly powerful bounty hunter knows no bounds of day and night; they treat treacherous terrains as mere pathways. Whether venturing into the Hundred Thousand Mountains for a bounty, hunting, or seeking treasure, they complete their task before returning to civilization.
This tier of bounty hunters come and go as they please, generally returning to the city after completing a mission. They do not need to form groups.
Only the bounty hunters in desperate need of rest and those little demons who were not very capable would come to camp at the foot of the mountain for the night.
Such camps, there are three in this area, mostly built according to the terrain and with simple defensive fortifications.
After all, the Tianxi Wasteland is not a safe place, especially at night. Creatures like wasteland wolves are notorious for their ferocity.
But the demon race is the most outstanding clan in the world. As long as they gather together, there is nothing to fear.
Chai A Si's campsite was the closest to him, a valley nestled in the mountains. Tomorrow morning, when it was light, he could carry his medicine basket back to Mowun City.

The so-called bounty camp is not a regular building.
The bounty hunters who only make a living in the Ten Thousand Mountains, spontaneously form gathering points at safe places at the foot of the mountain.
>
The environment is quite rudimentary.
There are fire pits of various sizes, some dug out, as well as several earthen walls, fences, and ditches.
But the protective ability is minimal.
This place is safe because a large number of bounty hunters gather here. Even the most wicked beast knows who rules this world.
Chai A Si, as usual, walked in with a smile. He didn't greet anyone, found a corner fire pit, cleared away the cold ashes, built a fire, covered his medicine chest tightly and held it close, then began to take a long nap.
Of course, he couldn't sleep. His mind was filled with the exciting future that awaited him.
But sleep can help you avoid interacting with other little demons.
Although not many demons looked down on him, there were quite a few who loved to talk nonsense and boast. He was usually willing to flatter them a bit, but now that he had just retrieved the ancient mirror from Inuyasha's follower, he wouldn't want to associate with other demons too much
Cowering by the hearth, he lay motionless beneath a tattered robe, only his ears pricked, listening to the idle chatter of the small demons in the bounty camp.

Tonight, the Ten Thousand Mountains are not at peace.

First, a large force of troops came from the direction of Mowu City. They were all private soldiers from the main branch of the Mowu City Dog Clan.
It is said that there is a fierce battle between humans and demons in Nantian City right now. Several celestial demons have joined the fray, and the troops of several nearby cities are on high alert. In this situation, with so many troops entering the mountains, something major must have happened.
Chai A Si couldn't help but think, could it be that Kun Xi Zai, one of the three outstanding talents of Mo Yun City, had something happen to him
He had similar suspicions when he saw the two bodies in the forest. But there were no other bodies nearby, and Inuyasha was incredibly powerful, possessing two formidable innate abilities. He thought Inuyasha might have escaped, but now it seemed like something sinister was afoot
As the night deepened, more and more demonic tribes trickled down the mountain. A large portion were directly driven down by the demon soldiers, resulting in more detailed and comprehensive information.
Quan Xi Zai is in trouble!
It wasn't just him who got into trouble; he brought in hundreds of soldiers into the ten thousand mountains, and only ten survived. They were all unable to receive information about Hundee's gathering in time and failed to join him promptly.
Disaster, like a whirlpool carrying countless dogs, spread over a vast area.
Chai A Si even learned from the idle chatter of bounty hunters the identity of the powerful being who had crossed the Heavenly Breath Wasteland into the Ten Thousand Mountains before nightfall.
That person... was not even the head of the Mo Yun City Dog Clan as he had guessed, but instead An Ying, the ancestor of the Xi Zai lineage, a true demon dog who secluded himself on Zhào Yún Fēng tens of thousands of miles away!
Here is your text translated into English:
Even with strong experts like Lian Quan Ying present, and so many troops sent into the mountains to search, the reason for Inu Xi's disappearance remains unknown. Not even a body has been found!
Hunters, anxious and tense, discussed the various possibilities.
Chai Si, curled up by the fire pit, felt his heart grow colder and colder.
Could it be… related to that ancient god
But he had clearly seen two bodies with his own eyes, so why were they saying that no bodies had been found What happened after he left
Chai Si realized that he might be in a lot of trouble.
It's very, very big.
He also wasn't without the impulse to think about handing over the ancient mirror, completely severing his ties.
But at this moment, he would think again... He would think of his grandfather's mangled corpse under the carriage wheels, of his own wasted half-life, of the glorious future promised by the ancient divine, Chi Yun Shan Shen, and of that peerless sword art, Heaven Piercing Earth Splitting.
Then there was just silence.
>He knew the nobility well, and even if his life had nothing to do with the fate of Yin Xi-zai, those masters could kill him at any time without batting an eye.
It shouldn't matter, right The one reflected in the mirror is after all an ancient god who can traverse the river of fate. Its opponent should at least be on the level of the Heavenly Spider Matriarch... Why would it make a move against someone like Can Xi Zai
Chai Si certainly didn't know, that existence in the mirror who claimed to have already fallen asleep, was also waiting for his reaction.
But he just closed his eyes and endured the whole night.
It's good that it's dawn, just go home when it's dawn. What happened in the Ten Thousand Mountains has nothing to do with himself. Chai A Si thought like this...
When dawn broke, a large contingent of warriors from the Canine Clan's main branch in Moyun City surrounded the bounty camp.
Hearing the uniform, sharp sound of swords being drawn, Chai Si's hair stood on end!

“All demon races, line up for inspection! Those who disobey will be killed without mercy!” A soldier galloping outside the bounty camp roared.
That icy gaze, the posture of drawing a sword, show that they are absolutely inflexible at this moment.
Leading the way was a strikingly beautiful female demon general. She wore a long sword at her hip, and her killing intent was palpable. Her eyes were piercing, as if she could see straight into the hearts of her targets, perhaps possessing some kind of divine ability to do so.
She personally sat at the entrance of the camp, watching every demon who passed her — that was the way she inspected them.
“You! Come here!”
Chai Si was still pretending to sleep when a fully armored soldier picked him up.
He slept on the outskirts of the camp, proudly becoming the first batch of demon clan to be checked.
The gauntlet gripping his throat had an extremely icy touch, as if it were frosted over!
At this moment, Chai Si's heart was filled with regret. He regretted taking those Dao Yuan stones, those dozens of five-hu copper coins, and what the hell hemostatic powder! Antidote powder!
Now I can't even say for sure!
Let's not talk about whether we can escape from so many soldiers.
Where to escape to
>
Now that the True Demon Lord has issued a wanted poster, there's nowhere left to hide, heaven or earth. Even if you tried to flee to the human realm, you'd need some real value, otherwise you'd probably just be imprisoned and turned into an elixir pill.
Chai A-Si walked slowly out, clutching his medicine pouch and patched robe, murmuring to himself over and over: "Venerable One! Venerable One! Ancient God! Old Master Ancient!"
Praying to that mysterious ancient deity, he hoped it would help him solve the problem before him.

But the ancient divine mirror in his arms showed no reaction at all.
He even suspected, yesterday's experience... could it have been a dream
"Come on! What are you dawdling for!" The impatient soldier kicked him, then turned to urge the other little demons.
Chai A Si stumbled and despairingly dashed out of the camp, only to see the alluring profile of that female demon general—this demon general strode past him, drew her sword, and pointed it at a strong demon within the camp who was angrily resisting. She roared, "Kneel down!"
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Chai Si shivered, his knees went weak. He turned back to look and saw that the sword was pointing at another demon.
He glanced around nervously, but was impatiently pushed aside by a nearby soldier: "Get out of here after you're done!"
Is that...it Done
Chai A Si didn't dare to say much, tightened his medicine pouch, and hurried out.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He buried his head and kept walking. After leaving the sight of those demonic soldiers, he instinctively quickened his pace. He walked faster and faster, until he had been in the Sky-Breath Wasteland for a long time and was met with a gust of wind and snow, only then did he realize that the back of his spine had been soaked with cold sweat.
From yesterday until now, the ancient divine mirror tucked away in my bosom hasn't reacted at all.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The ancient god has fallen into slumber.
Isn't it that it doesn't matter if you throw away the mirror
Could we just put this mirror down, take the heavenly-defying and earth-shattering secret sword art back to town, and then practice diligently from now on, striving to become a powerful demonic soldier
The words "Dao," "Divine Path," and "the long river of destiny"... they went through my mind.
A mere group of demon soldiers... Since this is a dream, one shouldn't be so timid. At the very least, I should become a demon general and bring honor to my family!
Chai A Si didn't know why, in a place like the bounty camp, where weaklings gathered, there would be monsters foolishly resisting inspection. He also didn't know why he was carrying something from a corpse and hadn't been found out.
He only felt that everything he did was going very smoothly.
There's a saying... when times are good, heaven and earth work together. When times are bad, even heroes are powerless!
Isn't this just a stroke of good luck!
Chai Si tightly fastened his collar, tucking the ancient mirror deeper. He continued walking forward in the wind and snow.
This time, his waist was straighter, and his spine more upright.
At a certain moment, he looked up at the distance. The vast plain stretched out before him, empty and lifeless...just like his own future had been.
The Sky-Quelling Wasteland has a harsh and fickle climate, with scorching heat in the morning and snow in the evening. Hailstorms rage in the east while rains pour in the west. Moreover, ferocious beasts roam freely, making it an utterly unsuitable place to live.

The demon clan casually built a city here, calling it "Tianxi," and for a long time, this was the only city that existed.
It was only after the human race had entered the Heavenly Prison world and established a foothold that the Tianxi Desolation was developed in depth. Places like Nantian, Jilei, Moyun, Bibo, and Shituo... were gradually built up.
The war that took place at the so-called "Southern Heavenly Gate of the Monster Clan" is slowly dying down.
A large number of human warriors slowly retreated back to the Five Evils Basin.
This is a sample text to demonstrate how HTML tags are preserved during translation.
The demon warriors also retreated deeper into the Tianxi Wasteland under the leadership of several true demons.
The Yaren Immortal Court was naturally unwilling to move the city again. He couldn't bear to lose face.
It was Qiguang who personally went to move the city of Nantong, which had been blocking the entrance of Frostwind Valley, thirty-one miles back.
For the vast populace of the demon race, this war was, of course, a great victory for the demon race.
It's laughable how reckless Jiang Mengxiong is, naive and foolish. Qin Changsheng is just as stubborn, with a single-minded focus. They rashly started this war, leading an unjust army, claiming they'll flatten Nantian City before sunset.
A hundred thousand human soldiers, ten thousand flying ships, dozens of real humans, and countless war chariots... surged forward.
How was the result

Wasn't it beaten back and forced to retreat shamefully
If they hadn't run fast, the old ape would have charged into the Five Wicked Basins with his spear!
Even better news, the current generation's pride of humankind, Qi State's youngest military marquis, a fellow named Jiang Wang, has already died in Frostwind Valley.
The demon clan has won now, and will win the future!
Of course, war inevitably involves sacrifices, and Nantou City suffered some damage at one point.
But the compensation for the sacrificed warriors is there, and damaged walls can be repaired quickly.
Nantian City retreated thirty-one miles. Compared to the one mile that the human race had retreated, it was a courtesy from the demon clan, a grand gesture of hospitality from Heaven itself for welcoming guests.
After that, the “Nantian Wuan” battlefield was designated as a medium-sized interspecies battlefield.
Both peerless masters tacitly agreed to no longer come here.
A storm, vanished without a trace.
>
Tian Yao Yuan Xian Ting, Qi Guan Ying, Zhu Yi, and Shi An Xuan have made great contributions to the demon clan!
Standing high above, gazing at Nantian City which had retreated thirty-one miles, Zuo Xiao's eyes held a hint of wistfulness.
Soon, Jiang Mengxiong, who had personally moved the city of Wuan thirty miles back, walked up to him step by step.
>
Qin Changsheng has already returned to Zhen Suiming. Only the two True Lords remain here.
Zuo Xiao said lightly, "Jiang Wang's accident this time is related to the demon race, but the most important thing is the betrayal of the human race. Going against the covenant of the human race and subverting the laws of Qi state, disregarding humanity. I have made the demon race take responsibility for their part, should this so-called mastermind also be held accountable"
Jiang Mengxiong said solemnly, "No matter who or what force is behind this, they will have to pay the price in blood!"
“Then I’ll wait and see.” Zu Xiaoyao only said this, then turned and left.
It triggered a massive war, pushing back the forces of Nantang City for thirty-one miles. Of course, Zuo Xiao did this to give Jiang Wang space to escape—if Jiang Wang was still alive and if Jiang Wang only remembered to return the way he came.
He left a glimmer of hope here, a sliver of possibility, a lingering thought.
Although I know this is not realistic.
But that's all he could do.
He originally wanted to kill a Zhū Yì, he originally wanted to dye the Tiān Xī Wilderness red with demonic blood, wanting to search for everything.
>
But it is no longer possible.
Even as a prince of the Chu state, even standing at the peak of extraordinary power, there are too many regrets, too many times when one is powerless.
Four years ago, when the Chu state was defeated in the Battle of Hegu, he was stationed in Tiangu Town.
Even if you wanted to act impulsively, there wouldn't be time.
When he returns to the mortal realm, as a Duke, he will also have to work hard to solve the turmoil in the country after the defeat in war and stabilize the Great Chu nation for generations to come.
On the battlefield, life and death should not be marked by personal grudges.
But he still disregarded the criticism. After that, he personally sought out Li several times, but there was no response... Later, when he learned of his whereabouts, it was at the Yellow River Conference where Jing Guo officially proclaimed Li as the true person Luo Shan Tai Yu.
The youngest ever living human, for the Kingdom of Jing, what it means, everyone knows.
The hatred of the death of the grandson, is it directed at Qin Or Jing
Even if he, Zuo Xiao, were to try his best, he could not erase this hatred and resentment.
>
Even with all the resources of the Chu state, it wouldn't be possible.

Besides, Chu was not just ruled by Zuo Xiao.
Even his Zuo Xiao was not the Zuo Xiao of yore, and the Zuo clan was far from its peak...
This is a test.
The helplessness of life goes far beyond this.
>In the end, there was only a single scarlet cloud hanging across the azure sky.
