Demon King's Repayment - chapter 158

A huge lizard quickly climbed down from the tree trunk, spat out and stretched its long forked tongue, sucking the newly born little spirit body into its mouth.

Its indifferent eyes turned to look at Yuan Xiang and the others, and left as quickly as they appeared.

“Ah, it was eaten like that. It’s so pitiful, it was just born,” Yuan Xiang said.

“The demons in the spirit world are abundant, capable of breeding a large number of demon bodies, but at the same time they were also eliminated in large numbers in the jungle, constantly devouring the spiritual growth of their companions, and eventually they could become a powerful demon.”

“It turns out that the world of demons is so cruel?”

Wu Yuan: “Although this is the case, for tens of thousands of years, with the accumulation of time, the number of demons has increased. But I don’t know from which day the circulation of Qi began to decrease. The spiritual world and the human world was gradually being stripped away.”

“In any case, although the several great spiritual worlds could be connected to each other, they were all gradually moving away from the human world. Especially in recent years, the Qi had dried up extremely quickly, even in the spiritual world that was close to the world like Sirius Mountain. The entrance was also constantly changing and decreasing. Maybe within a hundred years, the spirit world where the demons were located would truly disappear from human vision.”

Words were being spoken there, passing through a team floating in the air in the jungle not far away. The flags within the team fluttered without wind. A handsome man sat lazily on a gorgeous sedan chair. There was no one to lift the sedan chair, but it could fly in the air. A few carp dressed in clothes and hats followed around the sedan chair, swimming in the shade of the forest.

Yuan Xiang watched it for a long time.

Another girl with fluttering sleeves came over. The girl had a clean face and a cold expression. She passed by them and floated away. The purple sleeves were blown up by the wind as she flew, floating like a fairy. But was followed by several little ghosts. Those little ghosts had pale faces, sharp horns on their heads, no bodies and limbs, and their expressions were indeed hideous.

From time to time, weird demons passed by.

“Will the demons stay in our world in the future?” Yuan Xiang felt a little depressed. For her, the years of living with these demons were wonderful and interesting, but in the future, these lives would gradually no longer appear in her world. 

“Is everyone willing to leave the world of tens of thousands of years?”

“The lifespan of demons is long and the concept of time is weak. I think many demons didn’t even understand what happened. They walked slowly and leisurely with the Qi, wandering into the spiritual realm full of Qi, thinking that they could return to the world to play at any time. Perhaps when they turn around, the human world will disappear.”

“This is a good thing for humans.” Dushou heard their chat and said, “Human bodies are too fragile. They will no longer live with demons in the future, and will no longer have to fear powerful demons. Without the uncertain ghosts and Gods, quietly fighting and disturbing each other, presumably they could live better.”

“The world is unpredictable. It’s not necessarily a good thing.” Yuan Xiang thought of the world without demons before she was reborn, “Human beings, once they lose their natural enemies, they will quickly multiply in huge numbers, and then begin to have nothing, destroy the environment to the bottom line, and even destroy one’s own weapons. Moreover, in a world where aura is exhausted, one could no longer practice spells or pursue the path of longevity. I feel that the human path will be even more narrow.”

A few people chatted and walked out of that forest. The sight in front of them suddenly became clear. In a huge square, there appeared a market where many demons gathered. Towers and pavilions of different shapes were nestled on the mountain.

The three-storey small building of colorful colored glaze stood in the air, and the music like singing faintly echoed. A silver-white waterfall flowed out from between the railings, pouring high. A huge honeycomb-like building was hung on the mountain wall at a higher level. The handsome young man with transparent double wings drilled in and out from the small hexagonal window. On the ground under the honeycomb, small houses with a micro landscape were connected together. A tiny figure with a neat dress, and a small man with tentacles on his head walked around…

On the street, there were lights, and on both sides were lively shops and demons who set up stalls. In the middle, there were demons with huge differences in height and different shapes.

“So there is a bazaar here too?” Yuan Xiang felt very strange.

“Yes, this is a market for demons. There is also a market for ghosts and a small number of humans,” Wu Yuan crouched on her shoulder and spoke.

“Are there humans here too?”

“Of course there are. They migrated with the spirit world at the beginning, but hundreds of years have passed, and humans living here are very rare. Of course, there are also those monks who became immortals thousands of years ago. They’re not afraid of demons living here, but people like them have lost their physical bodies and cultivated into spiritual bodies, so they probably can’t be regarded as humans.”

Yuan Xiang was walking among the demons, looking around curiously. The road was noisy and lively, except for the appearance of pedestrians and the things they sold, it was almost not different from the human world.

“Fresh Ranyi core, dan to guard against evil. It’s cheap.” (Fish with ears of horse on head of snake)

“Bi Fang’s (bird) core, it’s a rare item, only traded but not sold.” (crane like bird with one leg)

“Tiger Jiao’s demon core, pure texture, walk by and take a look.” (Fish body, snake tail, tiger stripe)

Yuan Xiang hadn’t seen most of the things these demons were shouting.

Turning on the road, she was shocked by a stall surrounded by many demons.

A high platform was built there, with a chaise couch covered with soft cushions and gorgeous screen feathers behind it. On the chaise couch sat a well-dressed human man who had neither shackles nor restrictions on his body. He did not reveal any look of resistance, but sat happily, without any embarrassment or anger at all because of being an auction item.

A small demon stood on the stage and yelled, “A rare purebred human. He can cook delicious food, clean the nest, sing and play pipa, and sew beautiful leather clothes. As long as he is provided monthly with gold, silver and spiritual stones, you can keep this human at home.”
