“Mister Liu Huo, the Merry Forest is notoriously infamous. It is a vicious and dangerous place that no one wants to approach. If you cooperate with them, that will definitely affect your reputation. Our Thousand Eye Temple is willing to pay an amount of goods equivalent to what the Merry Forest gifted you for your forgiveness, friendship, and continued cooperation.” Old Fox looked backwards, “What are you doing? Show our sincerity and then ask Mister Liu Huo to join us.”

The fox woman respectfully bowed. She held a demon leather bag in both hands and said, “Mister, it was I who neglected you before. I am willing to accept any punishment, but I ask that you give me a chance to atone. Otherwise, the steward will hold me accountable and I fear that I won’t survive.”

Her eyes shimmered with tears and she spoke in a choked voice. For such a delicate beauty to softly beg for forgiveness, this scene was enough to touch anyone’s heart.

However, could someone tell Blacklight what this strange scene was? Our Merry Forest was about to draw a clear line with Liu Huo and have no further connection with him, so why was this so difficult? Why did these Thousand Eye Temple people leap out from nowhere and what did they want?

The master had patiently held in his anger and handed over his property; this was already the greatest concession possible. If he couldn’t handle this matter well, the master would surely be disappointed in him.

Blacklight clenched his teeth and spoke in a much louder voice, “Old Fox! This place is a part of my Merry Forest. I hope that you can wait for a moment. After Lord Liu Huo leaves, no matter what business you have with him, we will not interfere!”

“Humph!” Old Fox sneered, “Young brat, I haven’t seen you in a few years and your wings have already hardened. You dare to speak like that to this old man?”

Blacklight flushed red, “You were the one being unreasonable first!”

“I am unreasonable; what are you going to do about it? Screw off! With your weight, you do not have the qualifications to speak with me!” Old Fox dismissively waved his hand, disdain in his eyes.

At this time, a calm voice rang out in everyone’s ears. “Old Fox, you’ve actually scurried into my domain to cause trouble. Your courage isn’t small.”

Blacklight’s eyes brightened. He quickly bowed, “I greet the master!”

“Rise.”

The one who spoke was a middle-aged demon in black clothes. His appearance was exactly the same as a human’s. If it weren’t for the fact that this was the abyss, it would have been impossible to tell his identity.

In other words, this person was a member of an abyssal royal family. It was just unknown which clan he came from.

He took a step forward and cupped his hands together, “Mister Liu Huo, Today is the second time we have met. I hope that you can complete the agreement with our Merry Forest.”

Old Fox’s face distorted in anger. He blurted out loud, “Don’t even think about it!” He fiercely glared and said, “Black Astral, I’m warning you, don’t forget that I hold your little tail in my hand. If you really provoke my anger, don’t think I can’t make things bad for you!”

The true ruler of the Merry Forest was the calm and black-robed Black Astral. “If something happens to me, you won’t be any better off.”

Old Fox trembled all over. However, a considerable part of his appearance was a deliberate act. This could be regarded as a tactic to lower the enemy’s guard. Old Fox really was irritated, but his thoughts remained clear and his mind was racing.

He had suddenly arrived here today. While he had concealed his whereabouts as best he could, he couldn’t completely hide from outside eyes.

Moreover, this old dog had even come here.

This world never lacked smart people. Old Fox didn’t believe that if he could find a clue, others couldn’t.

If too much attention was drawn here because of this matter and others began to suspect Liu Huo’s secret, then there was a possibility he would be exposed.

If something like that happened and Liu Huo was angered, they would all have to endure his anger.

At the very least, all of his plans and calculations would fail. He would even have to withstand a severe punishment from Thousand Eye Temple’s headquarters.

After all, no one here was a fool. By looking at his previous actions and all the information he hadn’t reported, it would be easy to guess his thoughts.

Originally, this should have been a good situation where he was able to reap countless benefits. But because of the appearance of the Merry Forest, this shit-stirring stick, things had spiraled out of control and were veering into an unknown direction.

This damned black dog, he really is my nemesis! Nothing good ever happens when I meet him!

I can’t let this continue any longer. I have to figure out a way to return things to their original flow. Perhaps...I will have to join hands with them.

Old Fox took a deep breath and suppressed his angry thoughts. He smiled and said, “Mister Liu Huo, there are some matters I must discuss with Black Astral first. I ask you to please wait a moment. Rest assured, we will finish soon and won’t make you wait too long.”

Black Astral smiled. “That’s right, there are some things to discuss. I’ll have to bother mister with waiting.”

Qin Yu: …

This really was like waking up from a dream and then falling asleep again. Could someone tell him what was going on?

Why did people from Thousand Eye Temple appear? And even if they appeared, they shouldn’t be acting like this.

The Merry Forest’s Demon Commander was also acting strangely. It was like he knew nothing and yet also knew everything.

But looking at the current situation, while it was unusual, it didn’t seem to be anything bad.

They were struggling to give him things…

Was this because he didn’t have a deep understanding of the abyss? Were they actually a race that were particularly friendly and caring for others?

As thoughts clashed in his mind, his silence was like a tacit agreement in the eyes of Old Fox. Old Fox humphed and walked away.

Black Astral cupped his hands together and followed close behind.

The two old demons left just like that.

The fox woman knelt on the ground, tears in her eyes. Her hands still held onto the demon leather bag and her abundant white breasts were exposed.

Blacklight clenched his teeth. He picked up the demon leather bag that the Merry Forest had prepared and knelt on another side, “Lord Liu Huo, I have no idea what is happening, but if you must accept something, please accept our offering.”

The fox woman was posing as a pitiful person so she couldn’t immediately react. Still, she wished she could bite this damned horned python to death!

I am currently displaying my great temptation skills to attract Lord Liu Huo’s attention, so why are you bothering me? What an eyesore. Hurry up and die!

Blacklight looked over, coldly sneering inside. You brazen fox, you can forget acting shy and naïve in front of Lord Liu Huo!

In this quiet room, the fox woman and Blacklight were engaged in a secret contest. Somewhere else, Old Fox and Black Astral entered another room.

After closing the door, Old Fox’s angry expression completely vanished without a trace. He furrowed his eyebrows and asked, “You old black dog, just what do you want?”

Black Astral had a light look. “You smelly fox, you and I are both aware so why waste our time…you should also be thinking that if that person waits too long, who knows what could happen?”

The Old Fox’s eyelids leapt and he took a deep breath, “Let’s work together!”

“I can cooperate with you, but you need to explain exactly how before we can reach an agreement.”

“Damn it, at this moment, there is no time to delay…if you and I are discovered by others, we will both be finished and neither of us will obtain even the slightest benefit!”

Black Astral’s eyes flashed. “Are you sure that only the two of us know about this?”

“At least for now. But sooner or later, our movements will be noticed by others…” Old Fox’s voice came to a sudden stop and his eyes started to widen. He stared at Black Astral and said, “You didn’t know!”

His face flushed with blood and even his eyes began to turn red. His breathing turned heavy as if he would lunge forward at any moment.

Black Astral took a deep breath and slowly said, “Before now, I indeed didn’t know anything. But your words gave me a reminder…the appearance of the black demon cow and the silver moon wolf royal bloodline, was that all because of Liu Huo?”

As he spoke to here, even with his calm and steady mind his voice had become hoarse. It could be seen how wildly his emotions were fluctuating.

Bang –

The comfortable sofa that Old Fox sat on suddenly shattered into countless pieces. The soft materials were ripped apart by a wild strength.

“Shit! Shit! You damned dog, I’ll kill you! I’ll definitely kill you!” Old Fox, who believed he was wise and crafty, simply couldn’t accept that he had exposed such important information.

Perhaps Thousand Eye Temple might be able to hide their actions from others, but the Merry Forest was an organization that had taken root in Great Deer City. They were a local tyrant through and through, and in terms of spies, no one could match them.

So with Old Fox’s words, Black Astral was able to immediately grasp the truth of the situation.

After a series of loud explosions and rumbles, the demons outside the quiet room were all on guard.

“Old Fox…”

“Master…”

The demons had just opened the door but were pushed away by a loud roar from the room, “All of you screw off!”

This was good. These two big brothers were out of breath but still full of life. There didn’t seem to be any major problems.

But just what had happened for these two big brothers to become so agitated?

They couldn’t think about it and they didn’t want to think about it. It was better to obediently wait outside. Trying to listen in was only provoking trouble for themselves.

At this time, everything was in chaos in the quiet room. All of the furnishings had been destroyed by a rampant strength.

Old Fox and Black Astral each sat on a tattered sofa and gasped for breath.

“You dead dog, consider yourself as having a good life! But tell me, just what is going on today?”

After having determined Qin Yu’s status, Black Astral’s heart was still racing in excitement.

He grinned. The action caused the injury on his mouth to sting, and his smile brightened, “If I tell you, you’ll feel even sadder.”

Sure enough, as Old Fox learned what was going on between Qin Yu and the Merry Forest today, his intestines almost turned blue from regret.

He could only blame himself for being impatient. If he had waited until Qin Yu left the shop, he could have monopolized this secret for himself.

But with things having gotten to this point, it didn’t matter how annoyed or unwilling he was about it. Old Fox could only comfort himself with the fact that he had confirmed Qin Yu’s identity from another aspect.

Demon Commander!

Who could have imagined that such a terrifying strength existed beneath that ordinary aura.

There was no mistaking it. Liu Huo was an Abyss Walker who had taken on a new identity and exiled himself in the abyss to experience a brand new life!

Moments later, after cleaning everything up, Old Fox and Black Astral emerged from the quiet room, as calm as they usually were.

An hour later, Qin Yu carried two demon leather bags as he returned to his residence.

Looking at the familiar courtyard doors, he rubbed his eyebrows. Even now he felt as if he were living in a dream.

Too many strange things happened today. Was the abyss becoming abnormal?
