Chapter 236: Classification
"Pay compensation. I am made of such good clothing material, but you made a cut. At the least, I have to pay a hundred low-grade demon crystals!"
"Uncle, if I walk far away, I won't touch your clothes..."
There was a quarrel at the intersection ahead. Zhang Ye originally wanted to go around it, but Hua'er said, "Dad, be brave when you see justice!"
Hey, I don’t know how my greedy and fearful character could have such a daughter with such a strong sense of justice. Zhang Ye smiled and said, “Yes, I will act bravely when I see justice.”
Zhang Ye walked forward with Hua'er in hand. An arrogant and domineering gray-faced rat demon was grabbing an old woman and wouldn't let go. Passers-by pointed at her, but no one intervened to help.
"Stop!" Zhang Ye has done a lot of good things these days, so he is familiar with it.
The gray-faced rat demon turned his head and said: "Why, if you want to meddle in other people's business, fine, you'll have to pay for the clothes!"
Zhang Ye yelled: "Okay, I will help the old man pay for the 100 demon crystals, but you scared my daughter, so you have to compensate me with 200 demon crystals. After deducting your 100, you have to give me another 100!"
Passers-by were all shocked, this blackmailing skill was really superb!
The gray-faced rat demon was furious: "Seeking death!" and rushed to catch Zhang Ye.
Zhang Ye didn't take the rat demon seriously at all. The little foundation-building demon was not worth mentioning. Zhang Ye took out an iron rod with magic power and hit it hard. The kids at Yaoyue Academy called him " The Iron Stick Man did not live up to his fame, he just beat the gray-faced rat demon into a blood-faced rat demon.
The rat demon whined for mercy and fled in embarrassment, while passers-by applauded.
Zhang Ye said a few words of humility. Others praised him a hundred times, but none of Hua'er's compliments was as useful as Hua'er's. Zhang Ye turned around and said, "Hua'er, isn't your father great?"
Hey, Zhang Ye looked around and saw that Hua'er was gone, but he was still standing next to him a moment ago?
Zhang Ye frowned and didn't ask anyone. He closed his eyes and spread out his spiritual thoughts. Now he is a powerful person in refining the void. No one can escape from his spiritual thoughts within a radius of several miles.
After a moment, Zhang Ye opened his eyes and moved quickly in one direction. His mind found that a white-faced rat demon was running away with Hua'er in his arms.
Zhang Ye didn't care about hiding his human cultivation, turned into rainbow light, caught up with the white-faced rat demon in the blink of an eye, and even forced him into a dead end: "Let go of Hua'er!"
Hua'er didn't cry, but when she saw Zhang Ye, she kept calling her daddy.
The white-faced rat demon turned pale. He was the rat demon boss who planned to kidnap Hua'er. Previously, he thought that Zhang Ye's demonic aura was weak and was nothing to worry about. He never thought that the demonic aura was weak and he was so popular. A human race’s Void Refining Monk!
The white-faced rat demon couldn't figure out why a human would hide in the Demon Holy City, but that wasn't the focus he needed to consider. The focus was to find a way to save his life.
The white-faced rat demon rolled his green eyes, stretched out his sharp claws, and pressed against Hua'er's neck: "Go away, don't let me say it a second time, or I will kill her!"
"Take your dirty hands away, I don't want to say it a second time!" Zhang Ye's momentum surged, filling the entire alley.
The little foundation-building demon was like a drowning person, struggling to breathe, but he gritted his teeth and confronted Zhang Ye: "Okay, let's see if you kill me faster, or I kill the female doll faster!"
Zhang Ye gritted his teeth. Although this rat demon was only a foundation-building practitioner, he was using Hua'er as a shield. If Zhang Ye wanted to kill him, Hua'er might be accidentally injured.
While Zhang Ye was thinking of a solution, he asked, "Who are you and why did you kidnap Hua'er?"
The white-faced rat demon rolled his eyes: "Life in the Demon Holy City is not easy. I have no choice but to become a human trafficker. The female doll is so cute and can be sold for a good price."
Zhang Ye knew with his toes that real human traffickers would not dare to take advantage of the Tushan Saint Clan. This white-faced rat demon must have other purposes. Moreover, the previous farce on the street also involved a rat demon, who deliberately dragged Zhang Ye, and then this white-faced man kidnapped Hua'er. With such careful arrangements, there must be a conspiracy involved.
Zhang Ye wanted to ask something else, but the white-faced rat demon interrupted him: "Since you have caught up with me, I admit defeat. Brother, I just want to survive. You let me leave. After leaving the city, I will let this child go. People who buy and sell people are most trustworthy!”
"If you don't let me live, I will use this girl as my back!"
Zhang Ye definitely can't let the rat demon leave the city, otherwise Hua'er will really not be able to be found. However, this rat demon is indeed the kind of desperado. If there is no hope of survival, it is very likely that Hua'er will die with him.
While Zhang Ye was hesitating, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the hairpin on Hua'er's head. He had an idea and said, "Hua'er, do you still remember what dad said when he gave you a gift earlier?"
When Zhang Ye gave Hua'er a hairpin, he told her how to use the magical weapon. This white-faced rat demon is only in the foundation-building realm. Zhang Ye's demon weapon can definitely withstand a full-force attack from the rat demon.
And Zhang Ye can take advantage of the demon weapon to take down the rat demon.
Even though Hua'er was young, he was quite clever. He knew Zhang Ye's intentions and did not tell him about the hairpin. He just said: "Remember, dad also said that Hua'er loves Hua'er the most."
Zhang Ye looked at Hua'er with admiration, knowing that he could paralyze the enemy in this way. Zhang Ye concentrated on it, waiting for Hua'er to activate the demon weapon, and then he killed the white-faced rat demon.
"Tell you, don't think that I don't know what you are planning, get out of the way or I will kill her!" The white-faced rat demon said anxiously, knowing that something was wrong, but not knowing what was wrong.
At this moment, Hua'er used the demon power to move the hairpin, and Zhang Ye suddenly disappeared from the place, and next he came to the rat demon.
The rat demon was so frightened that his soul flew away, but there was a hint of cruelty in his eyes, and he stabbed Huaer's throat with his sharp claws.
A red light emanated from Huaer's body, and the rat demon's claws failed to penetrate. Just when the rat demon was puzzled, Zhang Ye took back Huaer with one hand, and slapped the rat demon's head with the other hand, pressing it against the wall.
Huaer was unharmed, and Zhang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, but the rat demon was not so lucky, bleeding from all seven orifices, and the wall behind him seemed to be cracked. But Zhang Ye did not kill the rat demon immediately, and asked: "Tell me, what is your purpose in kidnapping Huaer, otherwise I will kill you!"
The rat demon's mouth was bleeding, and his mind was a little fuzzy, but he laughed and said: "Naive."
Zhang Ye said nothing more, and the magic power in his hand gushed out, directly crushing the rat demon's brain and internal organs, and the rat demon died.
Zhang Ye checked the rat demon's belongings, and there was nothing special, so he did not stay any longer, holding Huaer and leaving quickly. After all, he exposed his human cultivation, and it won't take long for the Saint Clan soldiers to come and check.
When he returned to the street, Zhang Ye became a Tushan fox demon with a weak demonic aura again. He asked Huaer: "Were you scared just now?"
Huaer thought for a while: "So exciting."
It seems that the girl is her own daughter, and she is asking for death. No, how can I describe my own daughter like this? I should say that she is adventurous!
Zhang Ye did not take Huaer to eat special meals, but returned directly to the Demon Saint Palace through the secret passage and found Murong Hongzhuang.
"What? You said someone wanted to kidnap Huaer?" Murong Hongzhuang knew about this and was murderous.
Zhang Ye felt the breath of death for a moment. It seems that he still underestimated Murong Hongzhuang's strength. It is estimated that only Han Linger can compete with her. No wonder she was able to save him from the hands of the Nine Ancestors of the Heavenly Dao.
Murong Hongzhuang suppressed her anger and put away her murderous aura: "Who did it?"
"Two rat demons, one gray and one white. I killed the white one, but I don't know where the gray one is hiding. Before killing him, he only admitted that he was a human trafficker." Zhang Ye continued, "But I don't believe this explanation. Which human trafficker dares to kidnap the Tushan Saint Clan?"
The fox clan where Murong Hongzhuang belongs has all the demon saints in the demon world, so this tribe is also called the Saint Clan. The Saint Clan is the most powerful race in the demon world. Even the Yuanying Great Demon dare not easily provoke a Qi Refining Little Demon of the Tushan Clan, which shows the deterrent power of the Tushan Fox Clan.
Murong Hongzhuang accepted this statement. Indeed, no human trafficker dared to kidnap the Tushan Clan: "What do you mean?"
"Someone knows Hua'er's identity and deliberately kidnapped her." Zhang Ye said.
"Impossible, there are less than five people who know Hua'er's identity." Murong Hongzhuang replied after thinking.
"Less than five? That's easy to investigate. Catch them and torture them. Force them to confess. We'll definitely know what's going on." For Hua'er's safety, Zhang Ye was ready to kill anyone who stood in his way.
Murong Hongzhuang was speechless. Force them to confess? Is that interesting?
"The people who know are you and me, and Hua'er herself. Do you have the ability to force one of them to confess?" Murong Hongzhuang rolled her eyes. "The rest are only the Ghost Eye Granny and the Maid Cai'er, but they are both loyal and will never reveal Hua'er's identity."
Murong Hongzhuang was so confident that Zhang Ye had to put this idea aside for the time being. Besides, Zhang Ye knew both the Ghost Eye Granny and the Maid Cai'er. One was the chief guardian of the Demon Saint City, and the other was Murong Hongzhuang's personal maid. The possibility of betrayal was minimal.
Since it was impossible to start from the inside of the Demon Saint Palace, Zhang Ye had an alternative plan: "The gray-faced rat demon is in the same group as the white-faced rat demon. Block the Demon Saint City and capture him."
The reason why Zhang Ye hurried back to the Demon Saint Palace was to prevent the gray-faced rat demon from escaping from the Demon Saint City.
Murong Hongzhuang nodded: "Okay, leave this matter to me, and you should be careful later."
Zhang Ye is a cultivator of the Refining Void. In the Demon Saint City, it is more than enough for him to protect himself, so Murong Hongzhuang did not arrange guards for Zhang Ye.
"You have to be careful too." Zhang Ye added, "I always feel that Hua'er was kidnapped this time for you."
"It's not impossible." Murong Hongzhuang hesitated for a moment, murderous, "If it's for me, it's nothing more than the five tribes rebels. It seems that if the tiger doesn't show its power, it will treat me as a sick cat!"
"Fox." Zhang Ye corrected.
In any case, Zhang Ye was beaten by his wife for the first time in his life.
…
In the next few days, Zhang Ye went to work at the blacksmith shop as usual. After accumulating experience during this period, he was able to make demon weapons to the level of spiritual weapons.
It is said that demon weapons were created by Zhang Ye. Unlike magic weapons, they are not strictly graded. In order to better promote and sell demon weapons, Zhang Ye also decided to build a grade system for demon weapons to distinguish the power value.
After thinking about it, Zhang Ye had no good plan, so he simply divided the grades into one, two, three, four, five, and six. For example, the first-level demon weapon corresponds to the level of magic weapon, the second-level demon weapon corresponds to the level of spiritual weapon, and so on. It is simple, rough and ruthless!
If the first-level demon weapon is a minor one, the second-level demon weapon comparable to the spiritual weapon will surely trigger a change in the demon world.
And the magical blacksmith shop is the eye of the storm of this change.
