Chapter 0783: Treading Wave City

Half-demon is not a new race, but a group of humans and monsters appreciated by the monsters. They were summoned to Wangshan and received training ranging from several days to several months. After leaving the mountain, their strength doubled and they replaced the former Wangshan magic Taoist priests to execute the will of the monsters.

Half-demon is the name of the monsters. Similar to half-demon, these "lucky ones" have complicated origins. Some of them are even ordinary humans and monsters without any magic power. No one knows what standards and methods the monsters use to select them. What makes Tuo Yong happy is that none of the children of the royal family of Sheshen Kingdom were selected.

Mu Xingqiu thinks this is very similar to the Taoist sect looking for Taoist disciples among humans.

There is such a half-demon in Talang City. Even Tuo Yong does not know his background. He only knows that he is called "Mr. Ma". He has no position or official title, but he is the actual controller of Talang Country. Both human rebels and monster garrisons must accept his command.

Talang Country has surrendered to the monsters for several years. It is based on the port of Talang City that Sheshen Country has been able to build a huge navy and expand its power to the south.

Mu Xingqiu had no intention of alerting the enemy and did not want to fight a half-demon for no reason, so he asked Tuo Yong to enter the city as a royal child and take a boat to Qishan, trying not to attract attention.

Yin Buchen could only pretend to be a royal follower, which made him very unhappy, because he felt that Tuo Yong was not very powerful and was not worthy of his service at all. He had to accept it only under the clear order of Dao Zun.

Talang City was still the same as before. Flying was banned within a hundred miles, but there were post stations providing mounts. Tuo Yong had a snake-shaped iron plate that could prove his identity as a royal child of the Sheshen Kingdom. He successfully asked for two horses, one for each of him and Yin Buchen.

The horse's hooves were attached with magic. If they set off in the morning, they could reach Talang City before dark.

Tuo Yong used a delicate silk net to hold the black jade statue and hung it on his chest. At this time, the ancient god religion was quite widespread, and his approach was not special, but the material of the statue was more eye-catching.

Many years ago, in order to go to Luanjing Mountain to take back Fangfang's soul, Mu Xingqiu once came to Talang Country. He had a quick visit and was not impressed. He only remembered that there were many mountains and rains here. Today, Talang Country has very obvious characteristics of the demon clan. There are a large number of demon flags on the roadside, and the broken bones on them collide with each other, making sounds like wind chimes. The villages and towns have been abandoned, most of them are overgrown with weeds, and a few places have become military camps and checkpoints. The heads of beast demons are hung on the lintels to monitor the passers-by.

Tuo Yong was a little worried that Mu Xingqiu in the black jade statue would attract the attention of the demons. After passing several levels, he was relieved. Those demon masters and demon heads did not find anything unusual and respected him very much. Even Yin Bushen's attitude changed a little, and he began to admit that the status of the Sheshen Kingdom family is indeed a little higher than that of other demon kings.

Talang Country is one of the twelve vassal states of mankind, but humans can only be seen after entering the capital.

This is a conquered city. The most obvious sign is not the demons and monsters everywhere, but the unusual silence that permeates the city.

Talang City is very large, with a population of at least 300,000. With the demons constantly pouring in from all over the place, the population is nearly 500,000. However, there are few people on the street, and the vendors are nowhere to be seen. The shops on both sides are still open, but there are no clerks going out to solicit customers. It seems that the shop owners are hoping that the business will be deserted.

Only the East City near the port is lively. This is where the demons gather, reflecting the pride and happiness of the conquerors.

Tuo Yong did not stay in the official post station, but chose an inn. The inn is small and messy. Before it was completely dark, a large group of demons were already drunk and staggering.

Tuo Yong asked for a room and did not plan to go out again.

Yin Buchen stood at the door and peeked out, "Haha, it's really interesting. These monsters are obviously half-monsters from Sheshen Country, but they have to pretend to be monsters from the Land of Monsters."

"Is there any difference?" Tuo Yong didn't see it, he just thought the monsters outside were rude and impolite.

"Of course, the monsters in the Land of Monsters like to live in caves, but these monsters are accustomed to human houses. They are obviously monsters from Sheshen Country. They drink and make trouble just to make themselves more like real beast monsters. It's a pity that they don't imitate them. It's been so long, and I haven't seen them fighting together."

Yin Buchen shook his head.

Tuo Yong was not interested in this. He carefully took off the statue on his chest and put it on the table. He had something to say to Mu Xingqiu: "Dao Zun, you can take a boat tomorrow morning and reach Qishan in about half a month."

"Okay." Mu Xingqiu's voice came from the statue. He had gathered enough strength, but tried not to show up as much as possible.

"Sheshen Kingdom's navy is preparing to capture Qishan Mountain in one fell swoop. At least 500 warships have been prepared. More than half of the humans in Talang Kingdom are busy building ships. The guards on the sea are tighter than on land."

"Yeah."

"What I want to say is that it is very risky to go to Qishan Mountain at this time."

"Are you scared?" Yin Buchen came over and sat opposite Tuoyong. "You have seen the ability of Daozun. Even if you encounter danger, you don't need to take action."

Tuoyong ignored him and continued to say to the statue: "I hope Daozun understands that in order to send you to Qishan, I will pay a great price. My royal identity may..."

"Haha, let me say it for you." Yin Buchen interrupted, "Daozun, Tuoyong wants to taste some sweetness in advance, but I won't. Everything depends on your mood. I will be happy to give you a little reward, and I will have no complaints if you don't give it."

Tuo Yong simply made it clear, "For Dao Zun, I will betray the country of sacrifice and the entire demon clan. I hope the betrayal is worth it."

"Soon you will understand that 'betrayal' is not only worth it, but also your only choice." Mu Xingqiu paused for a moment, "Tuo Yong, you have a visitor."

Tuo Yong was stunned. He had just checked into the inn, and he didn't know any of the monsters in the inn. Where did the visitors come from?

Yin Buchen believed what Tao Zun said and immediately stood up and stood aside, acting like a follower.

Bang bang, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Who?" Tuo Yong asked stiffly. If it was an ordinary demon clan who came to say hello, he didn't want to see it.

"General Treading the Sea." A voice outside said.

Tuo Yongteng stood up, looked down at the portrait, hesitated for a while before going to open the door himself.

There are three monsters standing outside the door, a purple-robed magician on the right, a follower in leather armor on the left, and an old general in the middle, wearing a full set of silver armor, with some parts inlaid with smooth polished Bone horns, no helmet, thin face, sharp eyes.

It was quiet outside the inn, and all the drunk monsters disappeared.

"Uncle..." Tuo Yong lowered his head, his face a little red.

General Treading the Sea stood still. The magician entered the room sideways and looked around. He didn't pay special attention to the black jade statue on the table. Instead, he looked at Yin Buchen a few more times, and finally bowed his head to him and signaled him. go out.

Yin Buchen pretended not to know what he meant, and after a while he reluctantly walked out of the room. When he passed by Tuo Yong and General Ta Hai, he bowed skillfully.

The magician also exited and nodded to the general, indicating that there was nothing unusual in the room.

General Treading the Sea entered the house alone, and his entourage closed the door outside.

"Uncle, I..." Just as Tuo Yong was about to explain why he came here, General Tahai suddenly turned around, waved his hand and slapped Tuo Yong hard on the face.

There was a crisp sound, and there were several fingerprints on Tuo Yong's face. His face was red, and he did not dare to hide or say a word. This sea-walking general Tuo Fu was his uncle and his most important protector in the family of King Shishen.

General Treading the Sea walked to the table without saying a word, glanced at the black jade statue, then turned to look at his ashamed nephew, and said coldly: "An hour ago, I received news from the inn that there was a The grandson of the Tuo clan is coming to Talang City, and I thought I would receive important news, but instead I heard that you were hiding in a dirty inn. Are you hiding something from me? "

Tuo Yong didn't want to see General Treading the Sea. In front of this uncle, he was as uncomfortable as a child in his sixties, "Uncle, I have a reason."

"You have a reason to leave the capital without permission, and a reason to come to Talang Country quietly, but there is no reason to hide your whereabouts from me." General Tahai's expression became more severe, "Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Tuo family. The descendants of the Tuo family are all scrambling to make contributions, what are you doing? Didn’t the fiasco three years ago teach you a lesson?”

Tuo Yong's face turned even redder. He didn't feel that the annihilation of the entire army was his responsibility. The Wangshan Demon Priest killed five thousand demon soldiers. What did it have to do with him? All the magicians were dead, and it was a miracle that he survived.

These words could only be kept in his heart. Tuo Yong secretly glanced at the image, hoping to get a hint from Mu Xingqiu.

The nephew's actions could not escape the eyes of General Treading the Sea, "This is a statue re-carved with Taoist magic weapons. The magic has disappeared long ago. I really don't understand what the use is of keeping it? If my nephew degenerates to the point of losing hope, To place my trust in a non-existent god, I think it’s better to treat him as dead.”

Tuo Yong finally got the instruction, and Mu Xingqiu's words rang directly in his mind.

"Uncle, please forgive me. I am tired of living in the capital doing nothing. Yes, I ran out secretly. I want to join the demon army in Treading Wave City and make great achievements before going to see you."

General Tahai stared at his nephew sternly, "What achievements can you make?"

"I want to capture the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons alive for my uncle, and make her kneel down and surrender to the King of Sacrifice." Tuo Yong could finish the words by himself.

General Talang sneered briefly, obviously not taking his nephew's oath seriously, "Okay, I'll give you a chance. In three days, I will hold a hundred thousand flesh sacrifices, and then go to war on Qishan. I will give you a chance." A warship..."

"One hundred thousand flesh bodies?" Tuo Yong asked on Mu Xingqiu's behalf.

"What's going on with you? Is it worth your surprise to sacrifice a hundred thousand humans and monsters?"

Tuo Yong shook his head.

"Mr. Half-Magic Ma will personally host the ceremony. You have to watch carefully. Winning his favor is more important than defeating the Holy Mother of All Sons. Remember, Mr. Ma is a human being, so don't act too much like a demon."
