Although I had rejected her, she wasn't angry. Then, she started to play with her phone.
Not long after that, several exquisite dishes were served on the table.
"Come and try it. I saw the reviews of this restaurant on my phone. It's really good." Demoness Ye Ji waved her hand. Then, she didn't stand on ceremony and started to eat.
I had to admit that gluttons were everywhere in this era. Demoness Ye Ji didn't have any resistance to this kind of exquisite and delicious food. She especially liked to eat desserts. I guessed she couldn't make something like this in her time.
While she was enjoying her food, I chatted with Zhong Yuchen from time to time. I wanted to see if his mind was normal. I wanted to see if he was affected by Demoness Ye Ji's bewitching technique. From my observation, he didn't seem to be affected.
However, I thought it was necessary to remind Zhong Yuchen. Although I didn't like him, we were both from Nan Yun. He was the same as me. He also wanted to make a name for himself in the capital.
Moreover, from a certain perspective, helping Zhong Yuchen was also a form of redemption for myself. If the Witch Ye Ji drained him of his blood essence, it was highly likely that I would be her next target. Before I had the confidence to resist the bewitching technique, I would definitely be wary of her. As the saying goes, once bitten, twice shy.
If the same situation happened again, I was afraid that no one would be able to save me. Luckily, Zhou Shasha had invited Hsieh Shih-chi, and she didn't act arrogantly. If she hadn't gone to the second floor of the bar, no one would have dared to ruin my 'good deed'.
At that time, I thought that Hsieh Shih-chi was making a mountain out of a molehill, making a fool out of me in front of so many people. Now that I thought about it, I should have hugged and kissed her as a reward. After all, she had accidentally saved my life. Otherwise, I would have lost more blood essence and Yang energy. Even if I didn't lose my head, my cultivation and power would have been greatly affected.
After thinking about it, I was a little puzzled. Why didn't the Blood Devils attack me directly? Why did they send Demoness Ye Ji? Wasn't it unnecessary?
Could it be that they wanted my pure Yang blood essence?
Anyway, I had watched the video more than ten times. Although I only saw half of her face, I still noticed a detail. Demoness Ye Ji's face turned from pale to rosy. This meant that she had absorbed the blood essence herself and didn't give it to the Blood Devils.
"Brother Zhuang, I don't know if you've received the information, but I got a call from my father this morning. According to the clues he got, the devil cultivator might have gone to Kun City …" Zhong Yuchen said something surprising.
My heart skipped a beat and my face twitched. "It can't be!
Kun City is the capital city of Nan Yun. Do the devil cultivators have the guts to go there? "
"Sigh, who said it wasn't true? That's what I thought, but Chu Zhou City has already suffered a disaster. We haven't been able to find the devil cultivators, and our Zhong family has lost a lot of warriors. The devil cultivators aren't stupid. On the contrary, they are very smart. However, I think that if they have the guts to go to Kun City, they will most likely win. The previous disaster was just a small disaster. If it continues to develop, it will most likely become a catastrophe for Nan Yun, or even the whole of Hua Xia." When Zhong Yuchen said that, he couldn't help but observe my expression.
My expression turned solemn as I realized that I had made a big mistake. During this period of time, I had been doing well in the capital, and my name had spread far and wide. I had even killed a great protector of the Five Venoms Sect in the True Martial Pavilion. One must know that he was a genuine martial artist.
Just his status and strength alone were far above the average martial artists. Although the Blood Demon was far away in Nan Yun, it was the era of the internet. If the Blood Demon wanted to know about my movements, it wouldn't be difficult. Curator Du had previously told me that Old Sun seemed to have traces of activity in the capital.
If that was the case, it would mean that the Blood Demon knew about my achievements. In other words, he knew that I wasn't someone to be trifled with, so he might as well make a move on sister-in-law and the others. On one hand, he had sent the witch Ye Ji to deceive the public. After all, they were all devil cultivators. On the other hand, he had been quietly making his move.
I suddenly had a bad premonition. With the Blood Demon's speed of growth, the current Curator Du might not be his match. If the Blood Demon killed his way to the Sky Eagle Martial Arts Academy, no one would be able to stop him. At that time, sister-in-law and the others would be in danger!
Suddenly, my heart was in a mess. I couldn't wait to fly back to Nan Yun and reunite with sister-in-law and the others. However, I still hadn't sorted out the matters in the capital.
To me, the most important thing was the materials needed to wake Leng Yue up. It seemed that the day of the auction would be in two days. Although I could give Grandmaster Chen a large sum of money to handle this matter, it wouldn't be good. It wasn't that I didn't trust Grandmaster Chen. If something went wrong, Leng Yue would be in danger. After all, the Tianshan Snow Lotus was something that could only be found by luck.
Moreover, I still hadn't figured out who it was that wanted to control the four major families in the capital. Once this matter was put on hold, it would have a series of consequences. The stakes couldn't be underestimated.
If it really didn't work, I could only tell Department Head Wu. In any case, he was the head of the National Security Department. He had a high position and was very capable. I believed that with his ability, he would be able to find the melon by following the clues and investigate this matter to the bottom.
Of course, I still had to further treat Department Head Wu's illness. This was also the most important thing. I could only say that I couldn't leave for the time being.
Moreover, I was worried about another problem. If I returned to Nan Yun and the Blood Demon started to hide again, what should I do?
