Chapter 2298: Chapter 2293: You Are All Invaders

Tang Ming took a deep breath and nodded, then said, "I’m bothering you, please take him to Guo Muye Elder."

"I should watch over him myself. Mountain Ghost Granny said her people saw Ying Chou on Demon Origin Mountain, yet he appeared at the Demon Abyss Sea, there must be a huge issue. I need to ask him once he wakes up, Elder Guo’s power is too weak."

Zhou Mo shook his head and said.

Tang Ming was silent for a moment, then nodded, and said, "You’re right."

Ying Chou woke up late at night, originally thinking that when he awoke, people would be gathered around him, but upon opening his eyes, he only saw Zhou Mo.

"You’re awake."

Zhou Mo looked up towards Ying Chou on the bed.

Ying Chou nodded, "I need to see Tang Ming, I have important matters to discuss with him."

"Meeting the City Lord is easy, as long as you first prove to me that you are indeed Ying Chou."

Zhou Mo smiled at Ying Chou and said.

Ying Chou’s face showed a surprised expression, but he was very clever and quickly understood Zhou Mo’s intention.

Ying Chou reached out, taking out the Jade Scroll Lu Gou wrote to Tang Ming, then he also took out the Magic Treasure that proved his identity and the identity Jade Scroll Tang Ming had previously given him.

Zhou Mo let out a long breath, "Didn’t you go to Demon Origin Mountain? Mountain Ghost Granny specifically visited West Continent City because you went to Demon Origin Mountain. Both the City Lord and I are very shocked. How did you end up at the Demon Abyss Sea?"

"Once I see the City Lord and the various Elders, I will naturally tell you all. This is a major event, something that has never been discovered in Taoyuan World."

Ying Chou grasped Zhou Mo’s hand and said.

Zhou Mo stared at Ying Chou for a long time, then nodded and said, "I’ll gather the Elders tonight for a meeting."

The buzzing sound above West Continent City was very sharp. The Demon Fox living at the gate of the city’s earth cave instantly rushed out and sped towards various locations in West Desolation.

Tang Ming was sleeping with Hu Mei’er, and at midnight, the two were happily engaging in Dual Cultivation when Tang Ming suddenly stopped.

Hu Mei’er’s flushed face gradually receded, "What’s wrong, Tang Ming."

"Trouble at West Continent City, I need to enter seclusion."

Tang Ming took a deep breath and said.

Hu Mei’er heard it was about West Continent City and didn’t say another word, she nodded and began tidying her clothes.

When Tang Ming used his puppet clone to reach the meeting hall, Guo Cunhou, Zhou Mo, Fox Bachang, Hu Jiusheng, Hu Jiuze, had all arrived in the meeting hall.

Shortly after, Lin Hao, Tower Master of West Desolate Tower, along with Niu Yingzi and Niu Yinghao of the Niu Family, Nuoke Yingmeisi from the Demon Slayer Clan, elder Prophet and guard Alec walked in from outside.

Tang Ming first nodded to those who could participate in the meeting, then had everyone sit down.

Zhou Mo waved his hand, and a guard walked down, soon after, Ying Chou came in from outside.

"Hmm."

The elder Prophet from the Demon Slayer Clan exclaimed when Ying Chou walked in.

Many gazes fell on him, and somehow, the eye on the elder Prophet’s forehead had already opened.

"You encountered the Abyss Demon."

A raspy voice emerged from the elder Prophet’s mouth.

"Yes, not only did I encounter it, but I also faced something much more terrifying."

Ying Chou thought of the secret camp and felt his heart pounding.

He was annoyed with his own incompetence, yet his expression did not change.

"No wonder the alarm was triggered. Speak, what is going on."

Guo Cunhou glanced at Zhou Mo beside him, then spoke.

Ying Chou nodded and began talking from when Tang Ming had him recruit the Demon Hunting Team.

"I felt unfamiliar with the area near West Desolation, and there was chaos over in Hailong City; I had only foes, no friends, and would be hunted if I went there, so I thought to explore Demon Origin Mountain and contribute to West Continent City."

Many agreed with Ying Chou’s thought process, considering his action heroic.

Seeing everyone agree, Ying Chou’s face broke into a smile, then he started recounting meeting the disciple of Mountain Ghost Granny, and getting the map.

To explore the Underground Maze more clearly, he left the map’s control area, encountered the demon, discovered the demon’s camp, got hunted by demons, and entered that strange camp.

"The camp was extremely terrifying, inside were many demon corpses, and I found the Abyss Demon’s cultivation technique and a demon’s diary on the demon’s body. Here is the demon’s diary and the letter Lu Gou Senior wrote to City Lord Tang Ming after reading this diary."

Ying Chou extended his hand, handing the two Jade Scrolls to a nearby guard.

Being a puppet body, Tang Ming couldn’t read the Jade Scrolls directly, so he passed them to Guo Cunhou, who started reading aloud.

Lu Gou wrote plainly, expressing astonishment at the intelligence Ying Chou brought, and that it prompted him to think West Continent City’s defense should not only target the Abyss Demons but also other potential hidden threats.

He, Lu Gou, will aid Tang Ming in guarding the first line of defense at the Abyss Sea, and once danger appears, he, along with his disciples, would return to West Continent City immediately to provide the greatest help.

Lu Gou’s letter didn’t contain much else, mostly easing relations with West Continent City, relieving Guo Cunhou and Hu Jiusheng.

After all, the true animosity with Lu Gou was with Hu Jiuze, and Lu Gou was ambiguous; if he doesn’t resolve his issues, one can only imagine what he might do.

Guo Cunhou placed down the Jade Scroll containing Lu Gou’s letter to Tang Ming, then picked up the other diary by the demon Shadow Piercing Tutu.

"I, Shadow Piercing Tutu, descendant of the illustrious Shadow Stab Demon Monarch..."

In everyone’s mind, the image of an Abyss Demon gradually formed. This Abyss Demon had emotions, fear, and dread, just like humans.

And when mentioning their army’s annihilation encountering great enemies in Taoyuan World’s Underground Maze during their invasion, many instinctively turned their attention to the Demon Slayer Prophet.

The elder Prophet’s face showed no change in expression, though he couldn’t see, he could sense the gazes around him.

With a grin, the elder Prophet said, "It’s nothing. You are all invaders."

The elder Prophet’s words caused Tang Ming and others to open their mouths in surprise, and Guo Cunhou’s eyebrows furrowed as he spoke, "Prophet Senior, may I ask what you mean."
