The heaven-and-earth anomaly just now had only flashed for an instant, but it had already drawn Transformed Demons over to investigate; it was just that with their Realm, how could they possibly see through Jiang Shu's methods—after a round of probing, it all seemed like nothing more than an illusion.

It really did look as if a Great Power had simply passed by.

Hu Yi carefully eyed the array flags that had already been set down, afraid he might suffer backlash again.

Just now, overestimating himself, he'd tried to secretly watch Jiang Shu's array‑setting process and had almost vomited blood and died; in the end, it was Jiang Shu who acted to pull him back.

This flag was very unusual, just like his lord a few days ago—he seemed to be standing right in front of Hu Yi, yet also as if he were billions of miles away, hazy and indistinct; if Hu Yi turned his head, he would forget that just a second ago he'd still been looking at this flag.

Outside this flag, Jiang Shu laid down another layer of a Great Array that combined Illusion Realm and Suppress‑and‑Kill; so long as no Demon Monarch came, no one would be able to see his array flags.

"Let's go."

Jiang Shu turned his head, glanced in the direction of the town on the island, and spoke to Hu Yi.

This was only a not‑so‑prosperous island, yet it had already accumulated who knew how many Human Clan lives.

Then what about the entire Demon Domain?

Hu Yi seemed very interested in the Array Dao; only when he heard the voice did he come back to himself, hurriedly following behind Jiang Shu.

Jiang Shu did not know the background of that Sen Hu Ancestor; out of caution he did not use the Space Dao again, but simply took Hu Yi aboard one sea ship after another, shuttling through this sea area and placing down eighteen array flags.

Along the way, from time to time they would see Demon Beasts fly out from the sky, probing for Human Clan tracks in the distance; the frequency grew higher and higher, and by the time the last array flag was set, they could see one every two or three days.

These Demon Beasts, without a doubt, all belonged to the forces under the Sen Hu Ancestor.

It seemed the Black Dragon and the others really were anxious now, and had already passed on the news of his appearance to the local races in the Chaotic Demon Sea that possessed Demon Monarchs.

They wanted to expand the scope of their search.

Jiang Shu's expression was calm as he stood there with Hu Yi, space surging around them, letting the Demon Beasts overhead pass right by.

This scene, however, had given Hu Yi quite a fright; only after a long time did he grow used to it.

"It seems the lord really is a True Inheritor from a Human Clan Major Sect; even among Transformation… no, among Nirvana True Monarchs he must be a Peak existence, otherwise it would be impossible to evade the probes of Transformed Demons and still make all these preparations. But even so, he's still no match for the Sen Hu Ancestor. A Demon Monarch and a Nirvana Realm True Monarch are separated by an entire great Realm."

"Unless the lord…"

A thought flashed through Hu Yi's mind; he lowered his head and simply followed behind Jiang Shu.

Any sea ship that could sail within a Chaotic Flow Sea Area was no common vessel, far more luxurious than the one they had at the beginning; some even had a Primordial Pill Realm Half-Demon expert aboard to sit in town and fend off all kinds of Sea Beasts.

"Fox People, are you that lord's servant?"

At this moment, a burly man covered in black Scale Armor with a ferocious face came forward, speaking to Hu Yi with a somewhat fawning tone.

He had naturally seen that Hu Yi, like him, was a Half-demon, and his Realm was even lower than his own.

By the rules of the Demon Race, he could have completely ignored Hu Yi.

But now, at Hu Yi's side, there was a lord who looked completely identical to a human; just by standing there, his presence was unfathomable—he was highly likely to be a Transformed Realm Demon of the Demon Race.

Any Transformed Realm Demon held an extremely high status in the Chaotic Demon Sea; if a Half-demon like him could latch onto such a connection, his own clan would share in the glory.

"There are still some people of the Human Clan on the ship; though none have stepped into the Furnace Fire Realm, they've at least refined their organs and blood. Go ask that lord whether he wants them."

Some of the Demon Race believed human flesh tender and smooth, and that the flesh and blood of cultivated Humans was even more delicious, using it for food.

But how could Hu Yi agree to that.

All along the way, every time the lord landed on an island he would definitely make a trip to the Demon Race gathering places, and had seen the tragic fate of the Human Clan.

His expression had not changed in the slightest, as if he had long grown accustomed.

Hu Yi was a very smart man; he knew that although the lord had not shown anger, he had kept this account clearly in his heart. How could he now send food made from Human Clan flesh to Jiang Shu.

"No need. My master doesn't like Humans."

Hearing Hu Yi refuse, that Half-demon was taken aback; clearly, this was the first time he had encountered a Demon lord who did not like eating Human flesh, but every Great Demon had their own quirks. In the past he had heard of Great Demons who liked to eat Half-demons.

Since Human flesh and blood could not satisfy this lord, that was truly a pity.

The Half-demon looked a bit regretful as he turned and left.

Seeing him leave, Hu Yi turned back to his room and told Jiang Shu what had just happened.

Jiang Shu's arrival had made all the Demon Monarchs extremely nervous, especially after they learned that even the Black Dragon Demon Lord had suffered a huge loss in his hands.

That was the First True Inheritor of True Martial; secretly infiltrating the Demon Domain, he could not possibly be here to sightsee, but clearly intended to stir up some great upheaval within the Demon Domain, with those Demon Monarchs naturally bearing the brunt. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Although the Sen Hu Demon Monarch believed Jiang Shu would not cross tens of millions of miles all the way to the Extreme North to kill him, he had still sent out his elite forces, spreading them all across this sea area.

Jiang Shu nodded, looking toward the place where the Sen Hu Demon Monarch was in secluded cultivation.

Five days later, the sea ship docked.

Most of the cultivation resources for the local Demon Race in the Chaotic Demon Sea were gathered from various islands; aside from what their own clan searched out, they also ran passenger transport as a side business, to earn a bit of pocket money, like this kind of sea ship.

There were no precious cultivation resources on this island; most people only treated it as a transfer station, never imagining that on this deserted, overlooked island there was actually a Demon Monarch in hiding.
