Chapter 2361: Venomous Heart of a Woman

The Lord of Slaughter reached out his hand, saying, “Bring it out and let me take a look.”

Salamay hesitated when she heard that. She reflexively looked around her. Was she supposed to take something this important out just like that? She felt a mysterious sense of unease.

The Lord of Slaughter laughed and continued, “What, could it be that you’re worried that someone will steal it from you when your father is right here?”

Salamay figured that made sense. With her father’s cultivation, she didn’t need to fear anyone. Furthermore, she had so many powerful monsters with her. Unless the Monster Lord brought all of his palace emissaries with him, they didn’t have to worry at all. When she realized that, she didn’t hesitate anymore, and instead guided her ki to her inner core. Then, she gradually opened her mouth, and a light slowly arose from within her body before flying into the air.

The light gradually dissipated, revealing the shape of an item. It turned out to be a light green key. Of course, it wasn’t designed to open any normal lock. There were intricate runes carved on its surface, surrounded by formation fluctuations. It was clearly used to unlock a certain kind of restriction.

The Lord of Slaughter held the key in hand and said in praise, “You’ve done extremely well!”

When she saw this precious treasure that she had stored for so many years taken away, Salamay was a bit disappointed and frustrated. But when she thought about how the one who had taken it away was her father, she quickly sorted out her thoughts.

The Lord of Slaughter stored the key away and said, “Let’s set out then.”

Salamay beckoned Zu An over and asked, “Donaire, how is the security around the Priest Temple of this world’s Demon race?”

Zu An was surprised. So it was the Demon race’s Priest Temple! He replied, “The Demon race’s Priest Temple has always been their most sacred place. It’s always heavily guarded. However, as long as the regent doesn’t end up coming, they won’t be anything to worry about.”

Salamay nodded with satisfaction when she heard his reply. “That regent wouldn’t just happen to be guarding the Demon race, right? By the time he received the news and got there, we’d have long since left with that item.”

Yun Yuqing and Suolun Shi exchanged a look. They had never expected the Priest Temple to have such an important object to these monsters. Why hadn’t the Demon race’s higher-ups ever discovered anything in all these years?

Salamay then gave her father’s massive body a look. After some hesitation, she said, “Father, your current appearance is too outstanding. How about changing into human form first? That way, we won’t end up alerting unnecessary trouble.”

She covered her head with her sleeves, and by the time she lowered her hands, her dinosaur-like head had disappeared and was replaced by a beautiful face. Even though there was a veil over her head, judging from the brows and eyes that were revealed, everyone present could tell that she was an extraordinary beauty.

When he saw her face, Mojard was full of infatuation. Even Jiang Luofu and the other girls couldn’t help but give her a few extra glances.

This woman is even prettier than I imagined! And yet Zu An actually mistook her for an ugly person.

They all looked at Zu An with curiosity, wondering what kind of an expression he had right now. But unexpectedly, he remained completely calm, as if he didn’t care at all.

Only Pei Mianman was staring straight at the Lord of Slaughter while feeling a bit nervous inside. If things were as she expected, things could become a bit troublesome very soon.

The Lord of Slaughter roared with laughter and said, “What my daughter says is true. This appearance is indeed a bit too showy.”

The massive body changed into a tall and well-built middle-aged man. He had a full and wild beard around his face. His stiff brows and sharp gaze were flamboyant and bold in appearance, giving him a ferocious look.

“Father is powerful and impressive, as expected.” When she saw her father’s old appearance, Salamay felt even happier.

Pei Mianman’s lips opened slightly. She reflexively gave Zu An a look. Could it be that her suspicions were wrong?

Mojard stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, “This place is far from the Demon race’s Priest Temple. This subordinate has already exchanged some information with some residents of this world. We have mounts prepared for everyone, so the lord should use this chance to recuperae.”

The Lord of Slaughter voiced his understanding. “It is brother Mo who considers things more thoroughly.”

When he received this confirmation, Mojard released sharp whistles toward the sky.

Soon after, several giant dark figures flew over from the distance. When the others looked in that direction, they saw several giant eagles whose wingspan exceeded thirty meters. The giant eagles’ landing sent snow everywhere as they lay down in front of Mojard. Their feathers shook slightly, showing that they were fearful and subservient.

The women had ugly expression. These giant eagles were extremely powerful wild beasts from this world who had killed countless cultivators with their claws, and yet they were so easily controlled by a single whistle from these monsters.

The Lord of Slaughter and Salamay each took one, while Zu An and the girls shared another. The True Demon elders shared one, while Mojard and the others split into a few more groups to protect their surroundings. They seemed to be vaguely surrounding Zu An and the True Demon elders. The giant eagles rushed into the air, heading directly for the Demon race’s territory.

Pei Mianman looked at the nearby Zu An and hesitated. She wanted to ask about the thing she was confused about, but she was also worried of being discovered by the Lord of Slaughter.

While Pei Mianman was feeling conflicted, Salamay suddenly kicked off the ground and flew onto the back of their giant eagle. She scanned the women with a gaze that made it seem as if she was looking at ants. When she saw Pei Mianman’s chest, she almost choked.

Is this woman a cow spirit?

She pretended to pull back her gaze as if she didn’t care. She walked over to Zu An and said with a big smile, “Donaire, it was really all thanks to you this time.”

When Mojard saw that the two’s shoulders were almost pressing against each other, his teeth were about to be crushed to pieces.

You have successfully trolled Mojard for +444 +444 +444…

Zu An calmly replied, “It was only natural.”

“Give it a sniff; do you think I smell good?” Salamay held her arm in front of Zu An as she spoke. “After being constantly pursued by the Monster Lord over the years, I’ve rarely shown my human form, let alone used any cosmetics. But now that the hard times are over and the good times are just beginning, I’ve felt happy enough to use some. How do I look?”

Zu An was a bit surprised. “If I couldn’t smell the first miss’ fragrance from this close up, wouldn’t I be the biggest dolt under the sky?”

“Your little mouth really is sweet. Then tell me, am I prettier, or are the women around you prettier?” Salamay deliberately gave Pei Mianman and the others a look.

The women were already feeling really unhappy when they saw her suddenly act so intimate with Zu An. When they heard this question, they almost laughed out of anger.

Is this woman trying to cuckold us right in front of our faces?

But they were more curious about how Zu An was going to reply.

Zu An chuckled. “How could they compare to the first miss?”

The women were speechless.

You have successfully trolled everyone for +66 +66 +66…

Pei Mianman raised her brows. Her curiosity finally calmed down a bit.

It seems things were as I expected after all.

How could the real Ah Zu answer like this? Even if it was for the sake of pandering to Salamay, there was no need to disparage them. With his wit, he would’ve found a way to praise both sides equally.

When she realized that, she couldn’t help but give the Lord of Slaughter on the giant eagle’s back a look. He was seated with his eyes closed in meditation, as if he was restoring his body that had been imprisoned for thousands of years.

“Stop looking, if you keep staring, the others will start to become suspicious.” Just then, the Lord of Slaughter opened his eyes and looked in their direction. A familiar voice spoke in her ear.

Pei Mianman’s eyes lit up. “It was you after all!”

The Lord of Slaughter grinned. “I was always wondering what the thing that the Monster Lord and Salamay were looking for was, for them to have to go through such tricks. The reason I didn’t tell all of you is because I was worried that something could be given away if you all foundd out. Only without you knowing would the acting be perfect. I never expected you to have already seen through it on your own.”

Pei Mianman grinned. She looked quite proud. “But of course. How could I not recognize my own man? By the way, just who is that person? How were they able to act so much like you?”

The ‘Lord of Slaughter’ replied, “You’ve met them before. Lady Jing Teng. I helped her change her appearance myself, so of course she resembles me.”

Pei Mianman suddenly realized what was happening. “So that was what was going on! She’s probably the only one who can act so perfectly.”

Whether it was her cultivation or formation skills, Jing Teng was definitely the most suitable one for this task. Salamay had been asking her about formations the entire time, but she was able to answer everything smoothly. She had previously overseen the imprisonment of countless powerful beings in that great tomb in the past, so she naturally had a great understanding regarding formations.

Meanwhile, Salamay and ‘Zu An’ chatted really happily with each other. Then, she left with a big smile.

When she returned to the side of the ‘Lord of Slaughter’, she gave ‘Zu An’ flirtatious glances while secretly saying, “Father, find a way to kill Donaire!”
