Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

The old steward You Changping, who was still listening to the demons around him boasting and dividing the spoils, was somewhat out of it.

Puzzled, he looked towards his elder brother You Shuyang, only to see his brother making a subtle move.

With just one look, the old steward You Changping was abruptly stunned.

Because the subtle movement from elder brother You Shuyang was unmistakably the prearranged signal for escape!

What’s going on?

Old steward You Changping was bewildered.

Weren’t we just victorious in battle, standing shoulder to shoulder with these demons, successfully earning their trust?

Everything was just beginning, heading in a positive direction according to plan.

Theoretically, as long as we blended in with them, then schemed for our advantage, and finally made our escape, everything would wrap up perfectly, just like previous ventures.

But now, at only the start, elder brother was preparing to flee? Why?

Old steward You Changping was totally unable to understand his elder brother’s thinking.

And judging from the conversations of a few demons nearby, although we didn’t contribute much effort, as long as we were present, we could still get a share of the meat.

Old steward You Changping was an old hand in the world, having followed his elder brother moving in and out of several towns, infiltrating quite a few demon forces.

But a place like Tianyuan Town, where benefits could genuinely trickle down to the lesser demons, was truly a rarity.

Ordinarily, the few of them joining midway and barely contributing any effort, being mere hangers-on, wouldn’t receive any benefits at all.

Yet here, there was even a share of flesh and blood distributed, a lavish welfare standard that only superpowers capable of supporting idlers would have.

Old steward You Changping was just marvelling at how easy it was to pass the days here when, in the wink of an eye, elder brother was signalling for him to prepare to run.

Although filled with utter confusion, out of years of trust in his elder brother, old steward You Changping hesitated only for a moment before he instinctively sent a glance to his fellow guards.

Meanwhile, he subtly prepared to quietly withdraw behind the Demon Group.

But he had barely retreated two steps when he ran into a ’wall’.

Turning his head in puzzlement, the one blocking his escape was none other than [Hammerfang Ape Demon].

This behemoth stood tall, with both hands like two giant round hammers, mighty enough to uproot mountains with its might.

His main task earlier, when confronting the underlings of Thousand Households, was to gather information about the minions around Blood Demon, so he obviously knew what kind of strength and combat style [Hammerfang Ape Demon] had.

Despite an ominous feeling in his heart, the old steward You Changping remained calm. Turning around to face Hammerfang Ape Demon, he clasped his hands and smiled.

”Lord Hammerfang Ape Demon, what is...”

Before he could finish, Hammerfang Ape Demon suddenly bared a smile.

He raised his gigantic hammer and ferociously smashed it down towards him!

With a change in expression, old steward You Changping instantly retreated with the lightness of a painted figure, dodging the attack.

The whooshing wind brushed past him.

Boom!!!

Immediately after, there was a thunderous crash of the heavy object hitting the ground.

From amidst the flying debris, Hammerfang Ape Demon had already raised his right hand, the two hammers clashing together, showing a fierce look to old steward You Changping.

At the same time, old steward You Changping, just having steadied himself, looked around and discovered that lieutenants under Blood Demon were squeezing out from the mass of demons, standing in different positions, encircling him in the center.

Long Poem Canvas Demon, Red Ghost Fire Demon, Hammerfang Ape Demon... and even, Che Linfang!

Comrades who had fought side by side just moments ago, had now turned against him, as though they were eager to eliminate him swiftly.

And behind him, the You Mansion guards who received the eye signal from old steward You Changping, had already been surrounded by All Demons, with some even intercepted by minions not belonging to Blood Demon, but by followers of Demon Foot [Gui Yuan Moth Demon].

Obviously... Demon Foot [Gui Yuan Moth Demon] was also involved, and it wasn’t just Blood Demon’s side that had taken action.

The situation... was turning somewhat grim.

Old steward You Changping’s face darkened as he stared directly at Che Linfang.

”Lord Che Linfang, what does this mean? We truly came in earnest to join forces, even risking our lives in such a battle of life and death. Is our commitment not enough? Now to dispose of us after using us, what is your intention!”

By the end of his speech, old steward You Changping’s tone had become sharp.

Under his forceful presence, the encircling All Demons momentarily hesitated, their momentum slightly faltered.

In the short term, Fang Yu would be unable to explain the stakes and relationships to the demons below, only giving orders.

Hence, from their actions, this group appeared quite indefensible.

Some Little Demons around, who weren’t high-ranking enough to participate in the operation and unaware of the circumstances, also whispered and murmured.

”What is Blood Demon doing? Is this how he treats his subordinates?”

”To dispose of his subjects right after they’ve achieved a battle feat, such a cold-blooded guy. Who would dare to follow such a leader!”

”It’s still better with Lord Demon Foot [Gui Yuan Moth Demon]. I see that her followers all have exceptional physiques, their daily meals must be excellent.”

”Of course, Demon Foot [Gui Yuan Moth Demon] is kind to us! As for this Blood Demon? Hmph! After all, just a lowly fiend with narrow vision! Not fit for the grand hall!”

Amidst various voices, Che Linfang looked uncomfortable, and within her expression, there was also some hesitation.

She didn’t want things to get so ugly.

Family matters should be settled behind closed doors.

Putting them in front of everyone and dealing with it outright, the resulting reputation wouldn’t sound good—deceiving other demons to work as labor, then disposing of them once they’ve served their purpose.
