I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World-Chapter 501 - 271: The Disappearance of Yao

Chapter 501: Chapter 271: The Disappearance of Yao

Court 2

“A demon gathering place?”

Chen Ying was puzzled, not understanding why Su Nan asked about this, but she didn’t ask further and replied:

“Young Master, in our area, the number of demons is extremely scarce. Most demons are raised by the major families, who have control over the corresponding Demon Sutra; it’s precisely because of this that these families can thrive continuously.”

“Besides that, it’s very difficult to find demons in other places, and even if they are occasionally found, it would attract a large number of martial artists to capture them. It’s rare to find a place where there are more than three demons.”

So they’re all raised?

Su Nan finally understood why there were so few bloodline warriors in this world apart from the families.

When the most important cultivation resources of a world are monopolized, it becomes wishful thinking for ordinary people to want to cultivate.

“Is there really no place where a large number of demons gather?”

Su Nan was doubtful.

Since a game task has appeared, it means that there must be a place where a large number of demons gather in this world.

Unless he was overthinking, and the game task was not to find the gathering place of the demon clan but had another purpose.

At this moment, Chen De seemed to have thought of something. He hesitated and said, “Young Master, this old slave had heard a legend many years ago. I don’t know if it has anything to do with what you’ve mentioned.”

“What legend?” Su Nan’s eyes brightened, and he immediately asked.

Chen De said: “According to the legend, over five hundred years ago, there were also quite a few demons in our area. Many of them were like our ancestors, entering this place from the outside world. At one point, there were more demons than humans.”

“These demons gathered together and formed a power called Yao Court at Mount Yueri. There were even several King-level Great Demons among them. These Great Demons considered themselves to be the masters of this world and launched attacks on the major families.”

“As a result, the actions of the Yao Court angered the Daxuan Kingdom and the Five Great Families. The Daxuan Kingdom and the Five Great Families took action, and a great battle erupted at Mount Yueri. Since then, the Yao Court was destroyed, and the number of demons greatly declined.”

“Moreover, a hundred years ago, changes occurred in the Death Desert, and neither humans nor demons could enter. Without replenishment from the outside world, the current situation was formed.”

Yao Court?

After hearing the old man’s words, Su Nan had a guess in his heart.

If his guess was correct, the so-called Yao Court was not completely destroyed back then but had hidden itself using some unknown method.

Hearing this, Chen Ying also seemed to have thought of something. She said, “So Mount Yueri used to be the location of the Yao Court. No wonder there are more demons there than in other places.”

“The probability of encountering demons is higher?” Now, Su Nan became even more certain that Mount Yueri must be the headquarters of the demon clan in this world.

“Where is Mount Yueri?”

Chen Ying said: “Young Master, Mount Yueri is about a hundred miles southwest of here. It’s not very far from this place. Since the probability of encountering demons there is higher, many martial artists often go there to try and capture demons.”

Not very far?

Su Nan nodded and decided to first go to Mount Yueri.

Seeing this, Chen Ying and the old man exchanged glances, discerning Su Nan’s intention, and their eyes showed a hint of surprise.

With an almost imperceptible hope in her eyes, Chen Ying said, “Young Master, if you want to go to Mount Yueri, you have to pass through the Ma family’s territory. I’m afraid…”

She secretly hoped that Su Nan would go to the Ma family’s territory, which might give them a chance for revenge.

But she also worried that Su Nan’s strength was not enough to handle the Ma family and that it would be akin to sending a lamb into a tiger’s den.

“Oh? That’s quite a coincidence.” Su Nan could see Chen Ying’s thoughts, but his expression remained unchanged.

The Ma family was one of his tasks, and if he could complete it along the way, then that would be the best.

“In that case, let’s go to your Chen family’s place.”

Chen Family Town.

This was a very prosperous town.

In the past, it was the territory of one of the Thirty-Two Families, the Chen family.

But two days ago, everything changed.

The entire Chen family was killed, and the whereabouts of Miss Chen were unknown. Everything that belonged to the Chen family was now controlled by the Ma family.

When this event happened, it caused a huge stir throughout the Land of the Lost.

After all, each of the Thirty-Two Families in the past was high and mighty with vast power, making ordinary people seem like ants before them. Yet, such powerful existences could still be wiped out.

For the first time in a century, a family had been exterminated!

After the incident, not one of the families that had maintained good relations with the Chen family stepped forward to help them.

After all, in their eyes, it was not worth it to offend the Ma family for a family that had already been destroyed?.

Moreover, the Ma family that took action was not an ordinary family, as they had the backing of an even more powerful family.

“Young Master, why are we returning?”

Chen Ying was puzzled on the carriage. The Chen family had been extinguished, and everything that once belonged to them had been seized by the Ma family. What was the point of them returning now?

“My current identity is very sensitive. I need a new one,” Su Nan explained calmly.

Chen Ying was even more confused and asked,’ ‘Young Master, what do you intend to do?”

“I plan to…” Su Nan did not hide anything and explained that he wanted to become Chen Daohai and assume his identity to move about in this world.

“You want to turn into my father’s image?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Ying was amazed, but immediately frowned, “Young Master, although the disguise technique can deceive ordinary people and us Mortal Level Martial artists, it may be difficult to deceive those Spirit Level experts.”

Su Nan smiled and did not explain further.

Four hours later, the trio arrived at Chen Family Town.

At this time, it was dark, and the in-game time had reached nine o’clock in the evening. However, the Chen family town was still brightly lit, and many families had not yet gone to bed.

As the three of them entered Chen Family Town in their carriage, several middle-aged people who were having tea on the town’s entrance saw Chen De driving the carriage. Their expressions changed, and then they continued drinking tea as if nothing had happened.

Only after the group left did the few people quickly depart.

Over ten minutes later, under Chen Ying’s guidance, Su Nan arrived at the Chen family’s old mansion.

The Chen family had been destroyed, and this place was guarded by the Ma family. However, the guards were just ordinary people. Chen Ying and the old man took action, easily dealing with them.

Once inside the old mansion, Chen Ying quickly found a painting of Chen Daohai.

In the painting was a middle-aged man with a square face, looking somewhat thin. The artist who painted it was very skilled, creating a lifelike resemblance.

Su Nan glanced at the painting, and in the next moment, his body transformed. In the blink of an eye, he changed from a young man to the middle-aged man in the painting.

“This…”

Chen Ying and the old man were dumbfounded. If they hadn’t witnessed Su Nan’s transformation with their own eyes, they would have thought the person before them was Chen Daohai.

“Young Master, what kind of ability is this?” Chen Ying’s eyes were filled with disbelief, as this was already beyond her understanding.

Although bloodline power also had various strange abilities, it was impossible to achieve what Su Nan had done.

She even suspected that she was being influenced by some illusion.

Su Nan said indifferently, “It’s just some minor tricks. How is it? Are there any aspects that need adjustments?”

After all, a painting was just a painting and would inevitably have some differences from a real person.

Chen Ying examined him closely and said, “If you could be a bit taller and thinner, it would be exactly the same.”

Su Nan nodded, and his body changed again.

“This is amazing!” Chen Ying couldn’t help but exclaim.

At this point, in her eyes, Su Nan looked exactly like Chen Daohai.

Chen De also praised, “Young Master, if you stand side by side with our family head, even we would have a hard time telling you apart.”

Su Nan said, “It’s still not enough. Just changing appearance is not enough.”

With that, he took off the Pseudo-Breath Stone he was wearing and put it directly into his Personal Space.

He had drawn the attention of the Great King of Daxuan Kingdom by displaying King-level strength in his foreknowledge.

This time, he planned to go to the Daxuan Capital at the Xuan-level realm.

Chen Daohai was originally at the peak of Spirit Level. He disappeared for a year, so returning after breaking through to the Xuan Rank would be reasonable.

Moreover, the Xuan-level experts were already the top experts in this world. Even amongst the Five Great Families, they would not be looked down upon.

When the Pseudo-Breath Stone was put away, his original aura emanated. Chen Ying and the old man were both greatly surprised.

“Xu-, Xuan-level!”

“YoungMaster, you’re a Xuan-level expert!”

Feeling Su Nan’s surging aura, Chen Ying and the old man were both shocked and delighted. Although they knew that Su Nan wasn’t just an Early-stage Spirit-level, they never expected him to be Xuan-level.

There was a world of difference between the Spirit-level and Xuan-level. In this world, only the Daxuan Kingdom, the Five Great Families, and the Ten Great Clans possessed Xuan-level experts.

Meanwhile, among the Thirty-Two Families, there were only Spirit-level experts.

Since Su Nan was a Xuan-level expert, it meant that the family he would establish in the future would be on par with the Ten Great Clans!

Ignoring the shock of the two, Su Nan said, “The people from the Ma family should be here. You two go ahead and deal with them.”
