Chapter 398 The Demon Palace Envoy

The blazing campfire cast shadows on the villagers.

They all stood nervously at the edge of the square, close to each other, pale, fearful, and even their feet were shaking, almost unable to stand.

Everyone knew that tonight was the last moment.

If this group of evil demons kept their promise, many of them would survive after tonight.

So far, although this group of evil demons killed people without blinking an eye and almost ate all the children in the village, they have never violated their promise when they first entered the village. As long as the villagers do not leave the house and do not try to escape, they will not die.

This is also the last glimmer of hope that supports the villagers from collapse...

Survive tonight... As long as they survive tonight, at least many of them will survive.

And everyone hopes that they are among those people...

On the high platform, the Red Demon looked at the villagers gathered below with satisfaction and nodded: "Well, very good, very sensible, very obedient, you can survive if you are so obedient... Very good, I like you."

The Green Demon laughed and said: "As the saying goes, a man who knows the times is a hero, and although your village is remote and sparsely populated, there are still many heroes... Since you cooperate with us, then we will also cooperate with you. Everyone cooperates with each other and understands each other, so that a lot of troubles can be saved."

The Red Demon waved his hand and threw a half-zhang high box directly in front of the villagers. There is a round opening on the top of the box, which is just enough to fit an arm.

The Red Demon said to the villagers below: "Draw a life and death lot, if you draw a death lot, you will die, and if you draw a live lot, you will live. Everyone comes up and draws one, and after drawing, see the result... Do you understand?"

The Red Demon's question made the villagers nod quickly, fearing that if they clicked too slowly, they would anger this terrifying monster that was more than ten feet tall.

The Green Demon clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay! Let's start drawing lots now. Come one by one. Those who have drawn their lots should go to the side."

As he said that, the Green Demon waved his hand, and two light circles, one blue and one red, appeared on the white snow.

The Green Demon said: "Those who draw red lots go into the red circle, and those who draw green lots go into the green circle."

The two evil demons instructed the villagers what to do.

All the villagers present were obedient. Whether they were old people in their eighties or children in their teens, they all lined up obediently, walked to the half-meter-high box one by one, and put their hands into the box to draw lots.

After drawing lots, the villagers walked to the two light circles not far away one by one, and stepped into the light circles of corresponding colors according to the lots they drew.

Soon, all the villagers finished drawing lots and divided into groups. One group of people stood in the red circle holding red lots, and the other group stood in the green circle holding green lots.

Everyone looked at the red and green demons on the high platform nervously and expectantly, wanting to know which lot was a dead lot.

Ning Po, who had been closing his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment, frowned and looked towards the direction of the village entrance.

"Hmm?" At that moment, it felt something wrong.

And Ning Po's reaction immediately attracted the attention of the red and green demons and Xie Yunniang.

The three evil demons all looked at it and asked, "Is the special envoy here?"

The voices of the three evil demons were full of uncontrollable surprise.

Ning Po opened his eyes and frowned at the direction of the village entrance. He was silent for a few breaths, then slowly shook his head and said, "Maybe the sense was wrong..."

For some reason, at that moment just now, there seemed to be something at the village entrance peeking at this remote mountain village. But when Ning Po looked carefully, he couldn't feel it.

Just when Ning Po wanted to get up and go to the village entrance to see the situation in person, a hearty laugh sounded from far away outside the village.

"Hahaha...Mr. Ning Po has a high level of cultivation. You noticed me even though I came so secretly. It seems that my plan to surprise you has failed."

Amidst the hearty laughter, a figure cut through the night sky, passed through the hidden formation that covered the village, and flew directly in.

Finally, under the surprised gaze of the four evil demons, he landed next to the blazing campfire.

"Hahaha...On New Year's Eve, although I couldn't attend the palace master's family dinner, it is also a happy thing to be able to get together with all the masters of the magic way."

After landing, the figure laughed and saluted the four evil demons with a fist: "I am Xingzi, the demon of the Beiji Tiangui Palace. I am here to take the four masters back to the palace on the order of the palace master."

In the bright firelight, this is a tall and sturdy woman. She has delicate skin, soft features, and a pair of eyes that seem to be as bright as autumn water, but she is stout, muscular, and even has a thick beard.

Such a strange image shocked and frightened the villagers who were watching.

The four evil demons stood up and greeted each other, introducing their names, and the atmosphere was warm and festive.

Even the red and green demons, who liked to be weird, smiled and did not dare to provoke the evil demon from the North Pole Tiangui Palace.

Only the thin boy sat alone on the edge of the square, still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, practicing alone. It seemed that everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him, even the arrival of the evil demon envoy from the North Pole Tiangui Palace could not make him open his eyes.

After seeing the strangeness of the boy, Mo Xingzi said with a little surprise: "Is this the disciple of the Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain? He is indeed of good temperament and has the demeanor of a master."

The red and green demons coughed, but it was hard to say that this kid was not like this before.

Ning Po looked up and down at Mo Xing Zi in front of him, but the inexplicable uneasiness in his heart could not be dissipated. It couldn't help but ask: "When the special envoy came just now, did he stop at the entrance of the village for a while and observe the situation in the village?"

Ning Po's question made Mo Xing Zi slightly surprised.

She looked back behind her and said, "I just arrived and before I could see the situation in the village, I was discovered by Mr. Ning... Could it be that someone else was spying at the entrance of the village when I came?"

Mo Xingzi frowned and said: "But my spiritual thoughts swept across, but I couldn't find any breath of living creatures around this small village."

"This time I brought the [Snowfall Broom] given by the Palace Master, which can detect all the hidden living creatures nearby. If there are living creatures peeping near this small village, they will definitely not be able to escape the Snowfall Broom's induction."

Mo Xingzi said, directly calling out a palm-sized pale white broom, and said: "As long as it is a living creature, no matter how high its cultivation level is, even the palace master cannot hide the perception of this snow falling broom."

The white broom swayed in the void for a few times before flying back into Mo Xing Zi's sleeves.

Seeing this scene, she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "There are no living creatures snooping in the nearby area..."

Mo Xingzi was really worried that he would encounter the terrifying scene of the Wolf God from Hanyu Mountain knocking on his door as soon as he came over.
