Chapter 682: Chapter 341 Fox Demon Admits Mistake_2
 

Seeing this scene, many Monster Beasts in the Demon Saint Palace all showed a sense of emotion. The Fox Clan’s strength ranked within the top three among the Demon Tribe, always an entity no demon dared to provoke, and even the Human race held some wariness towards this sinister Fox Clan.

Now, under the pressure of the Golden Serpent, they had no choice but to apologize. It seemed that the Golden Serpent could unleash Capability at the Fusion stage, but that was nothing compared to its powerful background.

No matter how strong your Fox Clan is, if you truly anger this Golden Serpent, the methods of the Immortal Realm are not something that the little Fox Clan, even the entire Demon Tribe, could withstand.

At this moment, the Fox Tribe Tribulation Demon Patriarch spoke, “Since an apology has been made and accepted, Dragon friend, can you withdraw the Demon Energy you’ve injected into the body of our clan member?”

If that mysterious Demon Energy were withdrawn, this Void Refinement Fox Demon might have a chance to stand up again. Although the likelihood of continuing further Cultivation was slim, it could still live longer.

Lin Yi showed a faint smile on his face, “Fox Clan elder, I only agreed to show mercy at the behest of the Golden Peng Clan elder, and today’s apology was also his promise. As for this demon, whose bones are crushed throughout its body, this is my punishment, and I’m already being lenient. Otherwise, according to our clan’s laws, it should be executed.”

“How dare you disrespect our Fox Clan Old Ancestor,” several Integration Stage Fox Demons quickly flew beside Lin Yi, saying angrily.

“Hearing that the Fox Clan is skilled at conspiracy and tricks, seeing it today is indeed extraordinary. According to your clan’s laws, what are the consequences for disrespect towards your Old Ancestor? Well, then come and carry them out.” Lin Yi laughed lightly, speaking nonchalantly.

The White Fox Demon Ancestor waved his hand, and those Integration Stage Fox Clan members all receded. Then, he suddenly leaped up, standing on the high platform, looking down at Lin Yi from above. “Long Ao, this is not where your Immortal Realm lies, but the Demon Clan of the Spirit Profound Realm. Since my clan member has apologized and the White Serpent has accepted it, you should withdraw your methods completely.”

Lin Yi didn’t ascend to the high platform, but hovered in mid-air, looking up at the white fox and said emotionlessly, “Fox Clan elder, I must declare again that I am not descended from the Immortal Realm. You need not concern yourselves with my background.”

“Insulting my Dragon Clan, letting him live is already me showing mercy. This apology was also just to meet the request of the Golden Peng Clan elder to save his life. Of course, if the Fox Clan feels aggrieved, you can take back the apology.”

Some Integration Stage Serpents within the Demon Saint Palace couldn’t help but feel invigorated. For many years, their Serpent Clan had never enjoyed such glory within the Demon Saint Palace.

Even their Serpent Clan Tribulation Demon Patriarch wouldn’t dare to confront the Fox Clan Old Ancestor like this.

“Courting death, you mere Refining Void Serpent dare to be so arrogant. Even if you have an Immortal Realm background, so what?” The Fox Tribe Demon Ancestor said with a cold look.

Lin Yi shook his head, showing no Fury from being called a mere serpent by the Fox Tribe Demon Ancestor, but instead spoke calmly, “Fox Clan elder, you dote on the youngsters of your clan too much. When a mistake is made, responsibility must be taken.”

“If you really think it’s seeking death to touch upon the Fox Clan’s reverse scales and truly are looking for death, then feel free to kill me with a slap. After all, the strong are revered. However, there are some principles I still want to make clear.”

“The bones broken throughout its body, never being able to stand again, this is the punishment that should be borne after I have shown mercy.”

Inside the Demon Saint Palace, listening to Lin Yi’s stern and righteous words, many in the Demon Tribe found them quite reasonable, especially those few Integration Stage Serpents who wanted to applaud this Long Ao.

They didn’t have any particular fondness for the Fox Clan. Those who turned into handsome men and beautiful women were full of cunning and treachery, thinking themselves grand strategists who even wanted other Demon Tribes to follow their commands. It was simply too arrogant.

Many in the Demon Tribe felt that even if threatening the Human race with a Spiritual Pet, it should be done swiftly and decisively, displaying the Demon Tribe’s mighty spirit. But instead, they let the Fox Clan use plots to torment others. This paralyzed Void Refinement Fox Clan even aimed to insult the White Serpent with despicable methods; the thought was somewhat shameful.

Now, having provoked the Golden Serpent descended from the Immortal Realm, they could only say it was well-deserved. They had not an ounce of sympathy.

The Golden Peng Clan Tribulation Demon Patriarch nodded slightly, “White Friend, Dragon Friend has made some valid points. A mistake has been made, and responsibility must be borne. He is not targeting the Fox Clan but merely the Fox Demon who made a mistake. Were any other Demon Clan to make this error, they would receive the same punishment.”

The White Fox Demon Ancestor understood that this was a way out offered by a friend of the Golden Peng Clan; if he didn’t take it, he would find himself in an awkward position, having to either swallow his pride or to directly attack the Golden Serpent and strive to suppress it completely.

However, the consequences of suppressing the Golden Serpent were more than they could bear, and this was the conclusion he had come to after pondering yesterday. For the sake of a Void Refinement Fox Demon that had made a mistake, it truly wasn’t worth taking such a big risk.

“As the Golden friend has said, I agree with these truths. Let’s leave it at that; the remaining friends can preside over the matter. I have some business to attend to,” said the White Fox Demon Ancestor, waving his hand and gradually disappearing from the platform.

That Void Refinement Fox Demon was also carried away, causing many Monster Beasts a sigh of relief. Luckily, the Golden Serpent had some rifts with the Serpent Clan’s Old Ancestor; otherwise, they wouldn’t dare to provoke the Serpent Clan anymore in the future.

“Well, ladies and gentlemen, let’s set a rule: henceforth, one can threaten but not insult the Human race’s Spiritual Pets,” the Monster Ancestor of the Golden Peng Clan said in a serious tone.

Lin Yi gave a light smile; the outcome did not surprise him. The Demon Tribe wouldn’t abandon their method of threatening Human Cultivators with Spiritual Pets simply because of his arrival.

However, now that he had infiltrated the Demon Tribe, it would be very easy for him to rescue the Spirit Beasts in the Spirit Beast Dojo later on.

“We shall obey the command of the Monster Ancestor,” all the Monster Beasts in the hall shouted in unison.

“You may all leave. Remember, there are heavens beyond our heaven, and demons beyond our demons; one must not be overly arrogant,” the Monster Ancestor of the Golden Peng Clan advised at last.

Lin Yi, along with White Painting, also began to walk towards the outside, but then he heard the call of the Monster Ancestor of the Golden Peng Clan, “Friend Long, could you possibly delay your departure a little? We have some matters we wish to discuss with you.”

He certainly wouldn’t refuse, as he still hoped these old demons could provide him with some ‘wool’. “Honored seniors, it would be my honor,” he said, then had White Painting leave first.

Once the Demon Saint Palace was devoid of all others, the Monster Ancestor of the Golden Peng Clan spoke with a smile: “This isn’t the place for discussions, Friend Long. Please, come with us.”

Saying so, several Tribulation Demon Patriarchs led Lin Yi to a courtyard out back.

In the sky above the courtyard, they all transformed into human forms and descended into the courtyard. There were rules within the Demon Saint Palace that one must enter in demon form, but once they left the Demon Saint Palace, there were no such restrictions.

The several Demon Ancestors also brewed a pot of tea. After taking on human forms, they indeed began to learn many things from the Human race.

However, the tea of the Demon Tribe was too strong, with plenty of Spirit Grass and Spirit Wood added for flavoring; it was almost like drinking coffee.

In the subsequent conversation, they didn’t inquire about the affairs of the Immortal Realm. According to speculation, information descending from the Immortal Realm must not be proactively revealed, or it may lead to unfavorable events.

“Friend Long, what plans do you have for your cultivation within the Demon Clan?” the Monster Ancestor of the Golden Peng Clan asked with concern.

“I would like to stay within Demon City for a while to learn from the honored seniors,” Lin Yi replied with a smile. With the wool from the Great Tribulation Demons, his pace of cultivating would certainly increase significantly.

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, the several Demon Ancestors felt somewhat pleased, but still waved their hands and said, “Friend Long, with the Jiao Dragon Bloodline, what could you learn from us old demons? We are the ones who want to learn from you.”

Lin Yi waved his hand and gave the Demon Ancestors a fist salute, “Seniors flatter me. Having a Bloodline still requires diligent learning. There is an old human saying, ‘Among any group of three, there is something I can learn.’ The seniors have been cultivating for ten thousand years and have much that I need to learn. When the time comes, I hope the seniors won’t refuse.”

As long as he could fleece some wool, flattery and humility were not an issue.
