The daily life of a genius who enjoys gossip and cultivates immortality

Chapter 192 Wilderness 13

“You should have been there before! After all, you are a plant spirit!” Xuanze turned his head.

"Of course I've been to the Demon Emperor's coronation!" Mushroom Bun puffed out its chest proudly. "You bad dragon, you're asking me? You've definitely never been to the royal city! It's huge! And incredibly beautiful!"

"I've been to the Beastman's capital!" Xuanze said with a disdainful look.

"That's the old capital city. Don't you know where the new capital city is now?" Mushroom Xiaobao said smugly.

"Alright, Xiao Bao, don't change the subject!" Cheng Jiu pulled over Xiao Bao, who was arguing with Xuan Ze. "How childish, Uncle Xuan Ze."

Hearing Cheng Jiu's words, Mo Xiaobao became a little embarrassed and awkward: "I'm sorry, Xiao Jiu, I didn't know how to get to the royal city either. Da Qing Teng took me there on his way!"

"Big Green Vine? Is that Aoki Joe?" Xuanze turned his head and asked.

"Hey! How do you know about the Great Demon Senior?" Mushroom Little Bun's eyes widened, her tone filled with doubt and disbelief.

"Is that guy still here?" Xuanze didn't answer it!

"I don't know, the Great Demon Senior hasn't responded to me for a long time!" Mushroom Bun said dejectedly.

Although growing mushrooms here is fun, there are no other demons around except for insect demons. Sometimes she still feels a bit lonely. Besides her, the only other person living around is that great demon senior. Unfortunately, that great demon senior doesn't always respond to her.

“If he hasn’t left, he’s probably asleep! Okay, little mushroom demon, tell me where he is now, I’ll go look for him!” Xuanze asked.

"..." The little mushroom demon didn't want to answer Xuanze's question. This dragon was very wicked, and it would be bad if it tricked the senior.

"Don't worry, little mushroom demon, Qingmu Qiao and I are good friends. Visiting an old friend wouldn't mean I'd betray your senior." Xuanze's tone was reassuring, but the next moment his expression changed completely: "If you don't tell me, I won't betray Qingmu Qiao, but I'll eat you up!"

After saying that, it opened its blood-red maw, scaring Mushroom Baby into retreating continuously.

"Uncle-Master, how can you ask someone for directions like that! Don't scare her!" Cheng Jiu reached out to protect Mo Xiaobao.

"I'm not really going to eat it, I was just joking!" Seeing Cheng Jiu's protective look, Xuan Ze felt a little guilty.

"It's not funny at all, Uncle-Master!"

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to Xiao Jiu and not scare her anymore!" Xuanze landed back in front of Qingxu Immortal Lord, becoming lazy and listless again.

"Thank you, Xiao Jiu!" Mo Xiaobao said with tears in her eyes. Xiao Jiu is the best person.

"If Xiao Bao doesn't want to lead the way, that's okay. We can keep going and we'll find the way eventually!" Cheng Jiu said gently and understandingly.

Mushroom Bun shook her head: "It's okay, Little Nine. Senior is very powerful and not afraid of that bad guy at all. I'll take you there!"

Cheng Jiu was overjoyed and hugged Mo Xiaobao, saying happily, "Thank you, Xiaobao, you're the best!"

"Xiao Jiu is the best too!" Mo Xiaobao didn't reject Cheng Jiu's embrace at all.

Mushroom-shaped pouches fell from Cheng Jiu's arms and led the way.

Cheng Jiu lagged slightly behind, with Gong Cheng and the others following beside him.

"This little guy is so innocent!" Gong Yu exclaimed after watching the exchange between the group.

"It's quite cute!" Gongcheng nodded, no wonder Junior Sister Jiu likes it so much.

"I always felt that you and your Uncle Xuanze were playing good cop and bad cop, completely fooling this naive little guy," Li Weixin sighed.

"I'm not lying, I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart! It's Xiao Bao Yao who's good!" Although Cheng Jiu was confident at first, she couldn't help but touch her nose guiltily as she spoke, as if her friend was right! But she definitely didn't mean it that way!

"I wonder how this little thing, so innocent, has survived here," Li Weixin said curiously.

"Xiao Jiu, come here quickly! Let's take Xiao Lv to Senior Qing Teng's place, it's super fast!" Mo Xiaobao waved to Cheng Jiu from the front.

A gigantic insect landed on a giant mushroom, making even the small mushroom appear tiny in comparison. It was a Flying Green Grasshopper, an extremely fast demonic insect with formidable attack power and incredible speed, making it a formidable and troublesome beast.

At this moment, it was squatting obediently in front of Mushroom Bun. When it saw Cheng Jiu coming over, Mushroom Bun pulled her and crawled onto the green worm.

The insect has a soft shell with an oily secretion on it, but it's not sticky; it just feels very smooth when you ride on it.

"I'm sitting on Xiao Lü's back with Xiao Jiu," Mo Xiaobao said excitedly, then saw several of her friends who were with Cheng Jiu.

“They are my good friends and my senior brothers!” Cheng Jiu introduced.

"Xiao Jiu's friend is my friend, and Xiao Jiu's senior brother is my senior brother! Wait a moment." Mo Xiaobao whistled a long whistle, and a rustling sound came from afar. Several flying green grasshoppers jumped over, each a different color, some yellow, some purple, and some red. Each one looked very beautiful and eerie.

Compared to the green bug he was sitting on, Cheng Jiu could only politely decline the other bugs. How could there be so many different colors of Flying Green Bugs?

There were many Flying Sound Green Beetles, just enough to seat everyone present. The immortal lords didn't mind and all sat on the Flying Sound Green Beetles.

"We've really benefited from Junior Sister Jiu's fame." Gong Yu, riding his bright red Flying Green Beetle, touched it from left to right: "So strong, so powerful!"

This Flying Green Grasshopper is not only strong and robust, but also looks exceptionally fierce, making it one of the best mutants in the Flying Green Grasshopper species.

"Let's go!" With Mushroom Xiaobao's command, the flying green grasshoppers beneath them flapped their wings and soared into the sky, causing the entire mushroom forest to tremble wildly, as if something was about to emerge.

Like shooting stars, one, two, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of flying green grasshoppers flew out from all parts of the mushroom forest, gathered together, and from a distance, they looked like a dark, oppressive mass.

Despite the large number of flying green grasshoppers gathered together, they were remarkably orderly and disciplined, like a well-trained army. Each one possessed a high level of cultivation, at least at the Golden Core stage.

This perfectly explains why the adorable little mushroom pouch was able to cultivate such a large patch of mushrooms at the edge of the area. With such a well-trained army around, even if any malevolent demons or humans came with ill intentions, they would never return.

Don't be fooled by her repeated defeats at Xuanze's hands; it's only because Xuanze is strong that her army can't do anything to him. If she were weaker, Mushroom Xiaobao would show everyone what a Mushroom Queen is all about in no time.

Besides the Flying Green Grasshoppers they rode, a group of butterfly demon beasts fluttered out, each wing incredibly beautiful, indicating their high cultivation level. In addition to the butterfly demon beasts, there were also some other insect demon beasts. It could be said that it was an insect demon beast empire, and Mushroom Little Bag was the only queen among them.

Looking at the little person in his arms, Cheng Jiu felt that appearances can be deceiving!

With the Flying Green Grasshopper clearing the way, all the monsters they encountered fled in panic, and they roamed freely and unimpeded.

"It's here!" After flying swiftly, it finally landed in a large, dense forest. The Flying Green Grasshopper smoothly folded its wings, ensuring that neither the rider nor the demon felt any turbulence.

This forest looks ordinary, but the vines hanging down everywhere give it a strange and mysterious feel, making people wonder what secrets it holds!

Xuanze flew out from Qingxu Immortal Lord's body. As soon as it appeared, Zhou Shen's aura made the surrounding flying green grasshoppers somewhat restless, their bodies constantly tensing up, looking like they were about to attack or run away at any moment.

Xuanze sniffed carefully in the dense forest: "He's late again? Did he move to another place again?"

Why can't I smell that guy's scent? Could he have already run away?

Xuanze looked at the drooping vines, stretched out his mouth and took a bite, sucking it in quickly like he was eating a spicy snack: "It's been so long since I've had this, it's still so delicious! Anyway, the demons are all gone, so I don't need it anymore, I can keep the rest!"

"It, it not only eats mushrooms, it also eats vines!" Mushroom Bun exclaimed incredulously.

This guy eats everything!

"Little thing, don't you know? The plants you plant demons cultivate and the original bodies they leave behind not only taste good, but are also very rich in energy. They're incredibly delicious." Not only was Xuanze gnawing on them, but the spirit beasts of the other immortal lords were also enjoying them immensely, clearly quite fond of them.

The next second, a bright green vine stretched out from the side and lashed hard at Xuanze.

Xuanze hissed and bit into the vine in the next second.

The vines beside him quickly gathered together, forming a giant fist that drooped towards Xuanze's head.

Xuanze was prepared, and his huge tail lashed out swiftly: "You're not dead!"

The vines quickly gathered together, forming a curtain. A human face appeared on the curtain, looking quite handsome and refined, yet standing on the curtain gave off an indescribable chill.

"You're a dragon, you're not someone to be trifled with. I heard you were captured by humans and made into a spirit beast. It's been years since we last met, and the first thing you do is gnaw on my vines. Is that how you behave? You deserve to be beaten!" the human-faced man complained.

"Besides me biting you, who else can you let bite you? Don't be ungrateful!" Xuanze said, seemingly unconcerned about the other's complaint. "As for the human you mentioned, look, he's right here!" Xuanze pointed to Qingxu Immortal Lord, who was enjoying the relaxed atmosphere and admiring the surrounding scenery.

"You've been shameless all these years!" The human-faced creature was speechless, then saw the little mushroom demon beside it and lashed out at Xuanze's scales with a thick vine: "You wouldn't have bullied one of my kind, would you!"

Upon hearing this, the little mushroom demon immediately complained, "Great demon senior, it not only stole my mushrooms, but also said it wanted to eat me! You must teach this scoundrel a lesson!"

“If you encounter a plant demon’s plant and don’t take a bite, you’re not worthy of being a demon!” Xuanze said, not ashamed, but proud.

"It's all because of you bastards! That's why the plant spirits prefer to stay in the clumps at the foot of the mountain," the human-faced man condemned with a pained expression.

"Look at what you're saying, it's as if you always liked staying in bustling tribal cities!" Xuanze didn't take his rebuke to heart at all.

"You..." Aoki Qiao was speechless for a moment. Although he liked to travel all over the continent and changed his residence one after another, each place was quite remote. This place, located on the edge of the continent, could be described as the most remote of the remote.

If it weren't for the weak and foolish mushroom demon here, he probably would have run away and moved to another place long ago.

"I'm not going to argue with you!" Aoki Qiao snorted.

"Hey, come out here, I want to ask you something!" Qu Xuanze didn't care about the other party's stubbornness and ordered him around without any politeness.

"This is the attitude you have when you ask for help? Your awful personality hasn't changed at all over the years!" Aoki Qiao cursed, the vines that had formed his face falling down with a rustling sound. "I know, I know, please stop gnawing on my vines, they look awful!"

Xuanze looked at the vines lying on the ground, picked one up, and ate it: "Then you'd better hurry up, this isn't enough for me!"

"Fine, fine! You domineering, stinky dragon," Aoki Qiao complained.

After listening to the conversation between the demon and the beast, Cheng Jiu stared in the direction of the center of the forest. Was that green vine-faced creature about to arrive?

The other spirit beasts stopped gnawing on the vines and stayed by their master's side.

As Cheng Jiu anticipated, the vines grew endlessly, intertwining and converging in the sky to form a human body. Seeing this sudden change, Cheng Jiu also looked up at the sky. Soon, the body took on a human appearance, with limbs, facial features, and a body.

The vines wrapped around the body burst open, and a handsome man in his twenties or thirties, dressed in a green robe and with green hair, slowly descended from the sky with a cynical smile.

"Great Demon Senior!" The mushroom demon's eyes lit up as it looked at the senior. So powerful, so handsome.

"You must be the human who subdued this stinking dragon!" Qingmu Qiao leaned close to Qingxu Immortal Lord. "You look like an extraordinary person with exceptional grace and intelligence. Subduing this dragon is a great act of justice."

"You don't recognize him?" Xuanze asked with a playful tone.

"Hmm!" Aoki Qiao was taken aback by Xuanze's question: "The one who can subdue you must be quite famous among humans. I know him!"

“If you don’t recognize him, then what about this one?” Xuanze pointed to Qianli Immortal Lord behind him.

"Qian! Qian Li! Xuan Ze, bring Yama into the Demon Realm!" Qian Li of the Dragon Abyss Sect is a household name in the entire Demon Realm. Although he is only at the Tribulation Transcending stage, he single-handedly thwarted the conspiracy of the former Demon Emperor.

It was precisely because of this incident that the former Demon Emperor failed, allowing the current Demon Emperor to ascend the throne.

"Then your master is Qingxu? Qingyang?" There are only a few human geniuses who can rival Qianli in aura. They get along equally and harmoniously. They are geniuses from the same of the five major sects. There are only these two.

“Yes! I am the Ice Dragon!” Xuanze thought that his long-lost friend wasn’t that stupid.

Aoki Joe: "..."

No wonder Xuanze asked him if he recognized its master. If the former Demon Emperor were still in power, this group would probably be the top-ranked bounty list group. These three occupy three of the top ten spots on the bounty list, and their bounties are frighteningly high.

He would occasionally accept bounties issued by the Demon Emperor, but so many years have passed that he has long since retired from the business and has never seen the real person. It's no wonder he has forgotten, right?

"Alright, what did you call me out for?" Aoki Qiao clutched his pounding heart and asked Xuanze with renewed vigor.

"I want to ask you how to get to the royal city!" Xuanze asked.

"Take them with you?" Aoki Qiao asked hesitantly.

"They represent the five major sects and have come to discuss matters with the Demon Emperor!" Xuanze nodded.

"Oh!" Just thinking about this group entering the royal city made Qingmu Qiaoguang feel only one word: exciting! You have to understand that although the Demon Emperor has changed and the royal city has changed, a large number of nobles have also changed their territories.

A large portion of these nobles were victims of Qianli Immortal Lord, and for this to happen in the royal city is no different from dancing on the nerves of those worthless nobles.

Just thinking about it made Aoki Qiao excited: "Hey, we're brothers, aren't we! I went to the royal city before and got an audience with the emperor, so I specially left a teleportation array for going to the royal city! Take my teleportation array, it's fast and stable! We're brothers, I won't charge you!"

Xuanze rolled his eyes at Qingmu Qiao's excited expression: "You really are someone who only cares about keeping the world in order!"

Don't you like it?

"Of course I like it!"

Li Weixin listened to the words of the two, one a demon and the other a dragon: "Master seems to be very powerful in the demon realm!"
