Chapter 1015: Chapter 1015 - 449: Green Demon Arc – Return

The long-lost sunshine made Fang Yu feel a bit dazed.

In reality, he stayed in the cold research lab, hardly going out.

In the game, he was taken by the Green Demon to the hidden underground lair of the demons, away from the sunlight.

These few days, such brilliant sunshine was seldom seen.

Against the sunlight, one could see the Great Tianyuan Formation atop Tianyuan Town, still enveloping the entire town.

"Let’s go directly to [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall]."

The Green Demon said in a deep voice, seemingly eager to complete the task.

After speaking, he didn’t even give Fang Yu time to react, and he was already moving along the eaves.

Fang Yu was shocked, quickly following.

"Brother Qing, keep it low-key!"

As the words fell, the Green Demon swiftly descended.

Only two muffled grunts were heard, and when Fang Yu followed him down, there were already two headless corpses on the ground.

"Change into human skin, let’s continue on our way."

As he spoke, the Green Demon had already opened Big Mouth and swallowed the left headless corpse in one gulp, his body and face beginning to transform accordingly.

Fang Yu:...

Witnessing the Green Demon doing such a thing personally made Fang Yu feel very uncomfortable.

Although he knew for a long time that the Green Demon was a demon, and demons would eat people, each change of skin meant a human life, but knowing this and witnessing it, the impact felt was ultimately different.

"What’s wrong? Don’t like this human skin? Shall I go find a younger one for you around here?"

The Green Demon had already transformed into the image of a middle-aged man, skin somewhat wrinkled, like an old farmer, while the other corpse on the ground, looking sturdy, was probably the old farmer’s wife.

Fang Yu slightly shook his head, removing the Bone Armor to reveal his original appearance.

"Brother Qing, I’ll just use this human skin."

"How can that be! This human skin of yours has been exposed, humans over there will surely hunt you down!"

"Brother Qing, you don’t understand."

Fang Yu pointed upwards.

"Right now, Tianyuan Town is in chaos, messages won’t spread fast, and Hongyang Martial Arts Hall will have to go through a lot to learn about the Foolish Underworld. With this time difference, this human skin of mine can help you sneak into Hongyang Martial Arts Hall."

If it was before, such words would have been enough to persuade the Green Demon.

After all, Fang Yu had been infiltrating the Foolish Underworld, understanding its operation and the human situation here.

But now, it only intensified the Green Demon’s feeling of agitation. Yet he still suppressed that feeling, nodding: "So be it!"

This time they walked through the street, not only slowing down but also better blending into the crowd on the street.

Although the Great Tianyuan Formation was activated, causing anxiety among people, the incident happened suddenly, and the Five Great Families and forces like the Foolish Underworld were still operating, so it hadn’t reached the point of robbing in broad daylight and killing for food and supplies.

Simply put, order still persisted.

"Everyone line up orderly, one bowl of porridge per person, don’t grab or take more than your share."

Ahead, for some reason, a group of people had gathered.

Fang Yu felt a stir in his heart as he slowed his steps.

He found that it was a monk distributing rice porridge.

The warm rice porridge appeared somewhat tempting, but most people weren’t appreciative.

The reason they surrounded the monk was purely to discuss matters with him.

"Master Mi Wang, I won’t drink the porridge. Our whole family wants to stay at Baoan Temple for a few nights, please agree."

As he spoke, the person receiving porridge knelt down.

The monk kept chanting "Amitabha" and helped the person up, helplessly saying: "Master Jiang, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but Baoan Temple was already filled half a day ago. Monk Quan Heng, the supervisor of the temple, hasn’t given permission, and we really can’t allow anyone in. It’s beyond our ability."

"Master Mi Wang, I can donate a thousand taels of silver. I don’t ask for accommodation, just to enter Baoan Temple. If there are too many people, let my wife and children in, I don’t mind!"

The person was still kneeling and bowing, but Master Mi Wang had already sighed and chanted "Amitabha," letting others take him away.

However, the next person receiving porridge was also here to ask the monk for a favor, trying to sneak into Baoan Temple.

The monk looked helpless, but an odd feeling arose in Fang Yu’s heart.

It seemed many wealthy supplicants were quite keen on entering Baoan Temple.

Fang Yu then remembered, back at home initially, aside from his second sister and neighbors, these poor people would offer incense at Baoan Temple, and many wealthy supplicants in Tianyuan Town heavily supported Baoan Temple.

These were all bits of gossip his second sister shared during idle chatter, and he didn’t take them seriously then, but now... it seems quite a few people in Tianyuan Town actually understand Baoan Temple.

"What’s the matter?"

The Green Demon asked quietly.

"Nothing."

Fang Yu subtly shook his head.

"Best not to provoke these monks. Though we don’t know much about them, even Shu Bird Demon and others seem to be quite wary of these monks."

The Believers’ spiritual bonus against demons...

However, if a fight really started, Fang Yu still doubted whether Monk Quan Heng with only a thousand blood could rival the Demon Leader.

Apart from occasional monks setting up stalls to distribute porridge on the streets, most shops were still open, with only a few closed.

Though people on the street occasionally pointed and discussed the great formation above, it was just that.

The sword hasn’t fallen on their heads yet, so nobody was too concerned, believing that the people above would handle it.
