Chapter 1340 - 1340: Stepping Stone

While the two of them were tossing out those "immortal speeches," the group opposite finally arrived at the scene.

They'd been drawn over by the commotion from the battle just now.

As soon as they saw the Cyan Bear Cave Mansion, which had already turned into ruins, exclamations erupted from the crowd.

"How did this place end up like this?"

"Did a huge battle just break out here?"

"Where did Cyan Bear Daoist Venerable go?"

"Look over here, the Venerable of Zhu Mo has been killed!"

"Venerable Feng Ju is dead too!"

"Here's the corpse of Venerable Shriking Rat as well!"

"Even that most cunning Venerable Shriking Rat has been killed?"

"Dead, they're all dead!"

"Heavens, what on earth happened?"

After the shock, they all fell into wild joy.

"Could it be that a Great Sect came and wiped out that Cyan Bear Demon?"

"It must be, this is great!"

"This is enforcing the Dao on behalf of Heaven!"

Jiang Cheng gave them a quick once-over; this crowd really was all sorts.

Most were from the Human Race, but there were also Snow Race, Wood Race, Bone Race, Flame Race, Moon Race, Sea Race and various other races.

Among them, Jiang Cheng even saw Ice Race People he hadn't seen for ages.

Their Realm wasn't very high; most were still at Celestial Venerable and Venerable.

Only the few leading ones had reached the Ultimate Level.

"Who are you people?"

"What happened here?"

The Crystal Race Supreme at the front slowly drifted over to Sect Leader Jiang.

She was wearing human-style light armor and a black skirt, but her exposed hands and feet were crystal clear, shining with interlaced pink and blue, giving off a rather magical feel.

And her face was exquisite to the point of being criminal.

That was truly finely carved; no one could pick a single flaw in those contours.

Her eyes were less "like" gemstones than simply gemstones themselves, glimmering with a faint, eerie radiance.

Having seen all the various races of the Lower Realm Ten Thousand Realms and the Spirit Realm, Brother Cheng wasn't surprised by this anymore.

He was just about to speak when Three-Eyed Tiger took the initiative to jump out, trying to steal the spotlight and score some goodwill.

"Ladies, we're the ones enforcing the Dao on Heaven's behalf. This place was just wiped out by us…"

He shamelessly shoved Brother Cheng's credit onto himself.

"Pfft!"

Several Female Immortals at the back burst into laughter.

"You really are shamelessly boasting."

"You're only at Supreme yourselves. Cyan Bear Daoist Venerable is someone you can handle?"

"And you claim you wiped them out? I say you're full of lies!"

"Besides, you're just…"

Only at this moment did they finally notice that the human forms of Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi were actually Demon Race.

"Tiger Demon and Wolf Demon!"

"They're part of Cyan Bear Daoist Venerable's gang!"

"Not good!"

"Did we walk right into an ambush?"

A bunch of Female Immortals hurriedly scrambled, swiftly surrounding Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi, with Brother Cheng also falling into the attack range.

This made the Three-Eyed Tiger, who'd been trying to cozy up to them, wave his hands in panic.

"You're misunderstanding us, we really did come to enforce the Dao on behalf of Heaven…"

"Still spouting nonsense!"

"The Demon Race has bullied us for tens of billions of years; there isn't a single good one!"

"You even dare take human form to deceive us!"

Three-Eyed Tiger kept waving his hands. "I really don't, there are so many Demon Race out there, it's impossible they're all Cyan Bear's gang, right? I'm not on the same side as him at all…"

"You're not on the same side as Cyan Bear, you're just his good brother, that's all!"

Brother Cheng suddenly cut him off loudly.

"You and Cyan Bear are thick as thieves, did you think I didn't know?"

He leapt over to stand beside that Crystal Race Supreme, pointing at Three-Eyed Tiger and not giving him the chance to speak.

"Fairy, please take a good look. These two demons are Cyan Bear's accomplices; they just chased me here…"

"If not for your timely arrival, I'd have met a grim end!"

"The hell?"

Three-Eyed Tiger was dumbfounded.

"Seriously, Jiang Cheng, that's way too low. When things go south you use me as a stepping stone to pick up girls…"

Yan Yi's face was full of anger as well.

"Since when did we become Cyan Bear's accomplices? Can you at least have some shame?"

She had no complaints about Jiang Cheng's Power.

But his character? That definitely deserved a big question mark; when it came to shamelessness he was worse than they Evil Immortals.

"You two are still going to keep pretending?"

Brother Cheng's acting was superb; he jumped up and down as he pointed at them, accusing loudly.

"You disguise yourselves as humans to earn the Fairies' trust, thinking everyone will fall for it?"

He shouted, "These two are extremely crafty; don't believe a single word they say!"

Anyway, this group looked extremely repulsed by the Demon Race, clearly not going to trust them.

Someone as "upright and noble" as Sect Leader Jiang naturally had to immediately draw a clear line and get himself out of this.

He also skillfully cupped his hands to the Female Immortals all around, looking grateful. "Your arrival kept those two from striking me down, which is basically saving my life!"

"Many thanks, Fairies!"

The surrounding Female Immortals were stupefied, almost failing to react.

After carefully sensing him, they discovered that Jiang Cheng truly wasn't Demon Race—there wasn't a single trace of demon aura on him; he was absolutely Human Race.

They immediately relaxed.

Quite a few Female Immortals even smiled and waved it off.

"You're too polite."

"This is only what we should do."

"Everyone should kill Demon Race on sight; we just happened to be passing by."

"Next time you really should stay far away from those Demon Race…"

As for Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi, their attitude was completely different.

"You Demon Race still want to sneak into our ranks?"

"Truly shameful and hateful! You're looking down on us too much!"

Three-Eyed Tiger shot Brother Cheng a sidelong glance and curled his lips.

"Those with ulterior motives have already snuck in; it's not that I want to look down on you, it's that I can't help it."

"How vile!"

Several of the leading Supremes were so angered by him their pearly teeth ground silently; they all summoned their Weapons.

"Normally Cyan Bear acts arrogant and domineering, and now just two Demon Race dare be this rampant?"

"Sisters, if you've got a grudge, take revenge; if you've been wronged, make them pay!"

"Kill!"

Seeing they really were charging at Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi, Brother Cheng didn't dare be careless.

Joking was joking, but there was no need to actually screw Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi into a pair of fugitive lovebirds.

Taking advantage of the chaos, he used Invisibility to dash into the fray.

Then his Law Space unfurled, with all the special effects laid on thick, blasting the surrounding Female Immortals away.

Only then did he wrap up the Tiger Demon and Wolf Girl and flee hundreds of millions of miles away.

After putting those two demons down, he planned to head back to the original spot and continue getting closer to the girls.

Three-Eyed Tiger was furious beyond words; he didn't even call him "Bro" anymore.

"Damn you, Jiang Cheng, selling your teammates just to chase girls—who does that?"

"You're maliciously pushing aside your competition; that's jealousy!"

Brother Cheng spread his hands. "Anyway, with you two being Demon Race, there's no way they'll accept you. You might as well be put to good use—for my sake…"

"Who are you calling 'trash'?" Yan Yi was pissed too.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue!"

Brother Cheng lightly coughed. "Look, if I hadn't intervened from the shadows, just running into them would've cost you your lives."

"From that angle, I actually saved both your lives."

"Using that life-saving grace to let me score once in return isn't too much, right?"

Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi mulled it over silently; they felt that the logic was off somehow, but couldn't quite say where.

"Alright, alright. After you two catch up with the Celestial Pill Department, tell Tian Lin and Taiheng that I'm fine and they don't need to wait for me."

With that, Sect Leader Jiang quickly flashed back to the Cyan Bear Cave Mansion from before.
