Chapter 252: Zhao Country’s spy, Myriad Demon Palace’s arrival (2)
“No one dares to find trouble with us? If that’s really the case, why would someone follow you all the way here?”
“What is it? Who was it? Who’s following me!”
Hearing this, Xiong Shan was shocked and jumped up from the ground.
At the same time, a large tree a hundred meters away shook.
Then, a medium-sized scholar crawled out of the tree trunk and stood in front of them.
Su Mu threw a cold look at that person, ready to kill at any time!
But that person was not afraid.
He cupped his hands and smiled.
“The infamous Snake Demon King is indeed powerful. I didn’t come here in vain.”
“Who are you?”
This person didn’t seem to have any intention of fighting. It didn’t seem like he was here to kill Su Mu.
Therefore, Su Mu didn’t immediately kill him, but only asked.
“I am Di Yun. On the surface, I am a teacher of Ying Du Academy in Chu State, but my true identity is a member of the Xuanji Guard in Zhao State.”
“This time, I came to invite you to become a Guardian of our Zhao Country!”
Hearing this, Su Mu understood.
This person was a spy that the Zhao Country had placed in the Chu Country.
Seeing Su Mu’s fearsome might, he wanted to rope him in and make him join the State of Zhao.
However, Su Mu had no interest in it.
There was a difference between humans and demons.
It was said to be a consecrator, but it might be a dog. Who knew what kind of treatment it would be.
Seeing Su Mu’s expressionless face, Di Yun isn’t in a hurry. After a confident smile, he begins to speak with confidence.
“The Monster King might not know, but you killed an incredible person!”
“That Longqiu Feiyu is the disciple of Sword Immortal Qing Hong and was born in a big family. He has the support of two major forces.”
“This person is talented and intelligent. He was originally the successor of these two forces.”
“But now, he died at your hands.”
“Sword Immortal Qing Hong and the Dragonhill family have been discussing the matter of killing demons.”
“Moreover, King Chu can’t just watch idly. He’s prepared to mobilize the experts of the inner palace to cooperate with those two forces to kill you!”
“This attack is like a thunderbolt!”
“Not to mention your Zongshi realm cultivation, even an ordinary Martial God realm expert would find it difficult to resist.”
“Your death is coming!”
Di Yun described the situation of great crisis in a cadence!
It seemed that Su Mu was about to be torn apart, skinned, and taken out.
At this point, Di Yun suddenly changed the topic and said with a bit of pride,
“However, you still have a chance of survival. That is to join our Zhao Country!”
“In this world, there are very few places that can protect you.”
“Moreover, as long as you become a consecrator of our country of Zhao, you won’t lack any cultivation resources or demon cultivation techniques.”
“Such a good thing, others can’t even beg for it!”
“What do you think?”
After saying that, Di Yun confidently looks at Su Mu, as if he is certain that Su Mu will join the State of Zhao.
In his view, this was one of Su Mu’s few, perhaps even his only way out!
However, to Di Yun’s disappointment, Su Mu’s face remained indifferent as he calmly asked a question.
“What do I need to do after becoming a Guardian of the State of Zhao?”
“You didn’t mention anything just now. Could it be that you don’t need to do anything?”
It’s like drawing a pie if you only talk about getting it without paying.
How could Su Mu fall for it?
In terms of ability, Di Yun was just a younger brother in front of the capitalists in Su Mu’s previous life.
“Uh… Naturally, he had to do something. However, there were not many things to do. The higher-ups would occasionally assign some tasks, and it would be fine as long as they completed them.”
Di Yun was stunned for a moment before answering, obviously not expecting Su Mu to ask this question.
Hearing this, Su Mu revealed a sneer.
“In other words, after joining the State of Zhao, I will do whatever you want me to do. Is that what you mean?”
“You can say that, but…”
Di Yun said a lot more, but Su Mu only needed to hear the first half of the sentence.
It was easy to guess what kind of treatment he would receive if he joined a powerful human country as a demon.
After asking a little, the answer he got confirmed Su Mu’s guess.
This path was obviously not feasible.
..
“Since you want to rope me in, you have to show some respect, right? Don’t tell me you’re thinking of getting something for nothing?”
Su Mu couldn’t be bothered to listen to Di Yun’s long-winded chatter, so he directly asked him a question after he finished speaking.
“What? This… Yes, yes.”
Su Mu’s reaction always exceeds Di Yun’s expectations.
Hearing this, he was stunned again.
After answering, he fumbled around in his pocket and finally took out a jade pendant.
Di Yun entered a stream of spiritual energy into the jade pendant, and lines of words drilled out and projected in the air.
“This is a book distributed by the demon race. It’s called Body Control Technique. After mastering it, you can change your body shape and size at will.”
“I’ll give this art to you as a gift. When we reach the State of Zhao, we’ll have more treasures to offer!”
Saying so, Di Yun throws the jade pendant to Su Mu.
After catching it, Su Mu sized it up and sneered:
“I’m afraid this spell isn’t a greeting gift, right?”
“A hundred-meter-long snake demon trying to escape from the border of Chu to Zhao will cause too much of a commotion.”
“Only by shrinking can we escape relatively easily.”
“It seems that you have already made preparations for the coming.”
“Or rather, are you sure that I will join the State of Zhao?”
When Su Mu said these words, Xiong Shan, who had been with him for ten years, felt his heart skip a beat and retreated to the side without batting an eyelid.
Di Yun’s attention is completely on Su Mu, so he hasn’t noticed Xiong Shan’s unusual movements. Even if he did, he probably wouldn’t think too much about it.
He said proudly,”
“In the current world, the country of Zhao is the strongest! Countless heroes and demons wanted to join the State of Zhao but had no way to do so!”
