I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 733: Chapter 680: She’s Back!

The Cloud-Breaking Charge was blocked outside the barrier of the Demon Realm dock, and Jiang Yuebai, taking Yun Shang with her, came out from the Cloud-Breaking Charge and landed on the sea surface.

Another four fish demons holding harpoons emerged from the sea to check who was disturbing the Demon Realm.

When they saw clearly that it was Jiang Yuebai, the four fish demons were shocked, turned around, and ran while shouting in demon language.

”She’s back, she’s really back!!”

In an instant, birds and beasts in the coastal jungle rose in chaos, a lively scene of chaos erupted.

”Hey, open the barrier!” Jiang Yuebai shouted from behind.

Yun Shang gave a suspicious look, ”Are you sure that you are highly respected among the Demon Clan and revered as a Demon Master?”

On the way here, Jiang Yuebai, besides cultivating, had shared many of her glorious deeds in the Demon Clan with Yun Shang, especially her establishment of a school in the Demon Clan, teaching little demons the knowledge of the Human Clan and encouraging the Demon Clan to travel far and see the world.

Yun Shang also mentioned that in recent years, she indeed heard people talking about the increased presence of the Demon Clan all over the Earth Spiritual Realm, supposedly influenced by Jiang Yuebai’s efforts.

”Ahem~” Jiang Yuebai coughed into her fist, remaining calm, ”They’re too excited to see me, they need to hurry and notify everyone to welcome us, it’s understandable.”

Yun Shang doubted this, but she said nothing.

At this moment, several leaves from the Divine Tree appeared out of nowhere, falling onto the barrier, which immediately parted to the sides, and the leaves then flew past Jiang Yuebai toward Yun Shang.

Yun Shang held her breath in surprise, staring at the leaves.

The leaves circled around once and finally landed on Yun Shang’s head, disappearing.

”The Divine Tree permits you to enter the Demon Realm, let’s go.”

Jiang Yuebai and Yun Shang walked from the beach into the jungle together. Not long after, Jiang Yuebai’s ears twitched slightly, and soon, a figure suddenly leaped from the top of a nearby tree.

”Prepare to die! Shipwreck Grass!”

Yun Shang raised her head in shock; the sunlight pierced her eyes, and she saw a little girl of eight or nine years old, her face hidden in shadows, revealing only a pair of gleaming fangs and four fluffy tails behind her, raised a big knife and was about to chop down on Jiang Yuebai’s head.

But... if you’re going to chop, why shout? Doesn’t that give it away?

Jiang Yuebai smirked, stood still, and allowed the big knife to split her in two.

The Fox Demon Yousu Xiaoxiao frowned as the Jiang Yuebai she just split turned into several white vines, which quickly wrapped around her body.

Yousu Xiaoxiao flicked her fox tails, cutting the surrounding white vines, agilely jumped backward, and hung upside down on a tree with her tail, baring her sharp teeth.

”Hmph, I was prepared for this, knowing that you... ah!!”

Before she finished speaking, the branch she had wrapped with her tail suddenly turned into white vines, coiling around her body. Even with her Mid-Stage Golden Core Cultivation, she couldn’t withstand the vines’ mad absorption of her demonic power, rendering her unable to resist.

Jiang Yuebai appeared in her real form, grabbing Yousu Xiaoxiao by the tail and lifting her upside down, showing her to Yun Shang.

”Look, what a warm welcome; this is the specialty of the Demon Clan!”

Yun Shang couldn’t even be bothered to roast Jiang Yuebai, being completely captivated by the fluffy, chubby appearance and small sharp fangs of Yousu Xiaoxiao.

”Such a cute Fox Demon; can I give her a good rub?”

Yun Shang reached out, and the bound Yousu Xiaoxiao suddenly swung at her to bite.

”Get lost, you filthy human!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Yousu Xiaoxiao was lifted by Jiang Yuebai, who flicked her on the forehead.

”Watch how you’re speaking; how long have I been gone, and you’ve already forgotten the books I taught? How do you greet guests from afar?”

”Skin and roast them, fry and grill them!” Yousu Xiaoxiao bared her teeth and shouted in rage.

Pfft~

Yun Shang burst out laughing, ”As expected from your teaching hahaha~”

Yousu Xiaoxiao glared, feeling very aggrieved; she had worked very hard to cultivate, yet still couldn’t compare to that Shipwreck Grass.

Jiang Yuebai released Yousu Xiaoxiao, giving her a bottle of Blood Jade Pill.

”I’m going to see the Divine Tree; you can play by yourself.”

Jiang Yuebai patted the fox head, and Yousu Xiaoxiao shouted in anger, ”Don’t rub my head, I’m already an adult!”

”Growing in age but not in stature, it’ll probably take you a few more centuries to grow into that seductive Fox Demon in human stories, work hard on that. And I’ve told you a thousand times, don’t shout when ambushing, go learn from the Leopard Clan.”

Jiang Yuebai went ahead, and Yun Shang waved goodbye to Yousu Xiaoxiao, walking backward.

”Where’s the power if I don’t shout!”

Yousu Xiaoxiao watched the two of them leave, graceful and exuding Immortal Qi, then looked down at herself, short-limbed with no waist...

”Hmph, once I eat more meat, I’ll grow tall and beautiful too!”

Jiang Yuebai and Yun Shang continued deeper into the Demon Clan’s territory. Yun Shang found everything curious, yet every time she spotted a little demon by the road, they’d flee with fear on their faces.

Even the grass on the ground would pull out its roots and flees to a distance.

Yun Shang looked towards Jiang Yuebai, ”Why do I feel that you are not greatly respected among the Demons, rather loathed by demons and beasts and ignored by grass? What exactly did you do?”

Jiang Yuebai’s neck stiffened, ”Nonsense! They’re just shy and not good at expressing, you don’t understand, so don’t talk nonsense.”

”Oh.”

On the way to the Divine Tree, Jiang Yuebai indeed didn’t encounter many demons. She could not help but snort; truly heartless Demon Clan, knowing nothing of gratitude, only beastly instincts!

Arriving at the forest where the Divine Tree resided, the two of them stood on a high spot. Yun Shang was utterly amazed by the majestic scene before her; she had never seen such an ancient and massive tree, one tree forming an entire forest.

The cry of a phoenix drew Yun Shang’s gaze skyward, where beneath the tree’s canopy level with the clouds, two large phoenixes with two little phoenixes weaved among the dangling vine branches, swept past cascades of waterfalls, flying toward the cliff where they stood.

”Are those real phoenixes?” Yun Shang was amazed; she had raised many birds, yet never seen a real phoenix before.

Jiang Yuebai pulled Yun Shang back a bit, and when the four phoenixes—two large and two small—landed on the cliff edge, the two smaller ones seemed pleased to see Jiang Yuebai, crying out as they approached, bending their necks to nuzzle against Jiang Yuebai’s head.

The Female Phoenix and Male Phoenix also sized up Jiang Yuebai. When the Male Phoenix realized that Jiang Yuebai had reached Mid-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivation, he grew exasperated, casting a sideways glare at the two unambitious little ones and grumbled.

The Little Phoenixes were born with Foundation Establishment Cultivation, yet still couldn’t surpass Yousu Xiaoxiao, only just forming a Demon Core.

”Alright, alright, I missed you too, didn’t I come back? Patrol the mountains? No, no, I can’t do that now. Besides seeing you, I need to ask the Divine Tree some things.”

Upon hearing they couldn’t patrol the mountains, the two little phoenixes looked disappointed, drooping their heads, the flames on their tail feathers dimming.

Jiang Yuebai drew Yun Shang over, ”This is my best friend among the Human Clan, like a sister. When I go to the Divine Tree, can you show her the wonders of our Demon Clan?”

The two little phoenixes stretched their necks toward Yun Shang, narrowing their eyes for a close inspection. Yun Shang held her breath nervously but her eyes sparkled, staring unblinkingly at the little phoenixes.

Finally, the two little phoenixes reluctantly nodded, acting high and mighty, ready to show Yun Shang something impressive!

About to part from Jiang Yuebai, Yun Shang nervously clutched slightly at Jiang Yuebai’s clothes, who patted her hand reassuringly.

”The Demon Realm is vast, and these two little guys are reliable; just stick with them, and you’ll be fine.”

Yun Shang nodded.

Other than Jiang Yuebai, the two little phoenixes were unwilling to allow anyone or any demon to ride them. Leading the way ahead, Yun Shang followed them skilfully steering her flying magic treasure.

Jiang Yuebai, alongside the Female Phoenix and Male Phoenix, went to see the Divine Tree.

It was the same as before; she entered the Divine Tree’s domain in consciousness, but this time, she didn’t see the godly tree avatar resembling Wenn Miao.

Instead, there was a woman in blue robes, leisurely, dissolute, and impetuous.

This time, Jiang Yuebai didn’t have to wake the Divine Tree, as she sensed something, suddenly raised her head, and sleepily leaned forward to gaze at Jiang Yuebai for a moment, then opened her eyes wide.

”How did you... turn into a Chaos Creature!”

As she spoke, the Divine Tree suddenly examined herself.

”Wait, isn’t this Lu Xingyun?”
