Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

What do you mean?

Compliance with adjustments?

Fang Yu’s heart skipped a beat, glancing at Daoist Qing Yan, and then at Feng Yahu.

These two...could they be in cahoots?

”Daoist Qing Yan...”

Chen Yunyun cast a grateful look toward Daoist Qing Yan.

The Great Demon of Endless Blood, who had just been about to cause trouble, had sat obediently back on his chair.

With Daoist Qing Yan backing her, the issues regarding the distribution of benefits due to Fang Yu joining were quickly resolved.

It was simply a matter of giving a little more here, subsidizing a bit there.

Unlike Fatty Jia’s hard stance, or the Two-polar Yin Yang Grass which was rare, some less valuable and rare items were easy to discuss in a few words and complement each other in resource allocation, solving things smoothly.

After the discussions, the sky outside had turned dark.

Chen Yunyun rubbed her temples, feeling somewhat tired.

She had hardly had any time to rest during this busy day.

However, the issues with the distribution of benefits were finally temporarily settled, and the next step was to prepare for departure.

So Chen Yunyun felt quite invigorated inside.

”Since everything has been discussed, I’ll head back to my room to rest.” Feng Yahu said as she got up.

Fang Yu’s gaze followed her.

This person...is she planning to hunt?

Fang Yu wondered, yet outwardly remained calm.

Sui Chong Pass was small with stable personnel, unless she acted against outsiders, if someone were to die, it would likely be found out easily.

This person has a low likelihood to act recklessly at Sui Chong Pass...unless she has accomplices.

Feng Yahu left, followed by Fatty Jia who also stood up.

”Hehe, Lord Shouguan, I’m going to go check my treasures first.”

”I’ve already had them sent to Lord Jia’s room, he has an entire night to slowly inspect them.”

Chen Yunyun made a gesture of invitation, and Fatty Jia finally moved his bulky body, stepping out of the room.

As these two left, Luo Jianqing and the inconspicuous Guan Anxuan also stood up to take their leave.

But Dongfang Aotian and Daoist Qing Yan seemed glued to their seats, showing no intention of leaving.

Daoist Qing Yan was meditating with closed eyes, while Dongfang Aotian’s gaze was fixed entirely on Chen Yunyun, wherever she went, his eyes followed.

”Little Tong.”

Suddenly, Daoist Qing Yan spoke.

”Yes!”

Dongfang Tong responded with a start.

”You head back to your room first.”

”...Alright!”

Despite having Aotian attributes, Dongfang Tong was highly respectful toward Daoist Qing Yan; basically, whatever Daoist Qing Yan said, he did.

Lingering farewell glances at Chen Yunyun, Dongfang Aotian finally left the room.

For a moment, only Fang Yu and a few others remained in the room.

Fang Yu looked curiously at Daoist Qing Yan, then heard him speak.

”Diao, do you know Yahu?”

Fang Yu’s heart skipped a beat, but outwardly he shook his head calmly.

”I’ve never met her.”

”Then, Diao, did you fall in love with her at first sight?”

Fang Yu chuckled and raised the hand he was holding Ding Hui with.

”My wife is right beside me, Daoist. How could you joke like this.”

Daoist Qing Yan slowly opened his eyes, stood up, and looked straight at Fang Yu.

”Then, Diao, you’ve noticed she’s a demon.”

What?!!

Fang Yu was utterly shocked!

If not for his long undercover experience training his facial expressions, he would’ve been exposed now.

Yet even so, his slightly contracting pupils in that instant still somewhat betrayed his emotions, but outwardly, he showed a dazed and surprised expression.

”A...demon? Daoist, are you joking? How could Mr. Feng be a demon? Are you joking with me?”

Ding Hui’s hand abruptly tightened on Fang Yu’s hand at this moment, and her voice suddenly echoed in Fang Yu’s mind.

”That old woman is a demon?? Did you already realize earlier?”

Ding Hui, what cleverness.

From Daoist Qing Yan’s words, she immediately connected to Fang Yu’s previous minute anomalies, instantly understanding why Fang Yu acted slightly unusual earlier.

Yet at this moment, Fang Yu had no thoughts left to respond to Ding Hui.

His gaze shifted between Daoist Qing Yan and Chen Yunyun.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yunyun, upon hearing such shocking news, remained so calm, as if...

”Is it true that Young Master Diao can detect clues? Could Young Master Diao be hiding some kind of artifact?”

Chen Yunyun asked curiously, her tone so casual and calm as if she were talking about eating and drinking.

Fang Yu didn’t speak. He couldn’t quite grasp what these two meant.

But without a doubt, starting a fight in this confined space was very disadvantageous to him...

”Don’t scare Diao. Diao, this demon, I personally watched it slip into human skin and voluntarily come forth to make acquaintances. To quickly find out the whereabouts of this demon, I have paid quite a price. If you had looked at it a few more times, Diao, I might have had to intervene.”

Acquaintances?

Listening to Daoist Qing Yan, Fang Yu felt his head buzzing.

”What exactly... is going on here?”

Fang Yu couldn’t help but ask.

”I don’t really know, but Daoist Qing Yan said that this demon he escorted here will be of great use in the Land of Gathering Evil.”

Chen Yunyun also looked at Daoist Qing Yan.

As a friend of her mentor, Chen Yunyun had great trust in Daoist Qing Yan.

Even when introducing a demon into the pass, she didn’t sound the alarm or kill it.

Firstly, inside the pass, with the help of the array, she had enough power to suppress it.

Secondly, with so many people in the team, a mere demon couldn’t cause much trouble.

The previous demons breaching the pass, similar in strength to great demons, had been subdued by her as well.

So, although Chen Yunyun had doubts in her heart, she didn’t ask further.

Daoist Qing Yan just smiled mysteriously.

”This demon is very special. When we reach the Land of Gathering Evil, it will play its role. For now, we have to raise it, without letting it know... that we already know it is a demon.”

”And we cannot let it become aware that it is a demon itself.”

What...?

Every word Daoist Qing Yan said, Fang Yu understood.

But put together, Fang Yu couldn’t grasp it.

What does it mean by not letting a demon know it is a demon??

Confused.

Honestly, Fang Yu was a bit confused.

But Daoist Qing Yan just laughed heartily, patting Fang Yu on the shoulder.

”Young friend, don’t think too much about it. I have all arrangements under control. However, when we enter the Melted Heart Cave, I hope you can give your all!”

With that, Daoist Qing Yan greeted Chen Yunyun and gracefully turned to leave the room.

The tense atmosphere from moments ago had completely dissipated.

Fang Yu looked at Chen Yunyun in confusion.

”You knew from the start?”

”Yes. Daoist Qing Yan told me about it the first day he brought the person here. It seems to be a special demon cultivation technique, which I don’t really understand.”

Though strong in ability, Chen Yunyun’s knowledge couldn’t compare to the older generation.

Fang Yu looked at Ding Hui beside him, who also shook her head.

”I’ve never heard of any demon cultivation techniques. But cultivating artifacts, swords, and even pills are methods I’ve heard of often. Maybe it’s something similar?”

It’s rare for something Ding Hui doesn’t know.

At least in Fang Yu’s impression, Ding Hui was quite knowledgeable—she could understand a bit about everything, even if only partially, she was still way ahead of him, a complete illiterate.

Considering Daoist Qing Yan’s terrifying power, Fang Yu decided it was better not to stir up trouble.

He had originally been considering whether to eliminate the demon. But now it seemed if he did anything that disrupted Daoist Qing Yan’s plans, it would be fatal.

”By the way, the others...”

”They all know. At their level, they have their own ways of identifying demons. If they couldn’t identify but still suspected, they are very likely to take action. Daoist Qing Yan didn’t want any such occurrences, as even mere suspicions seemed to affect the results of demon cultivation.”

What was happening.

Demons playing house?

Everyone saw her as Feng Yahu, except for the demon itself.

Everyone else knew Feng Yahu was just a demon.

Fang Yu’s head buzzed a bit; there was truly all sorts of strange things out there.

Gently stroking the Blood Drying Sword that had just come into his possession, Fang Yu pushed down the messy thoughts.

No matter what Daoist Qing Yan wanted to do, given his appearance, he seemed determined to save someone, so he should be... an ally, right?

”Young Master Diao, your Spirit Slave friend, along with Hei Wu Jue, is imprisoned in the lower cells. Shall I take you to see? By now, we should have extracted some information from Hei Wu Jue. As for your Spirit Slave friend, she’s somewhat unfriendly, but we’ve only tied her up, treated her well, and haven’t done anything else.”

Chen Yunyun said.

Fang Yu looked at her and nodded.

”Lead the way.”
