Chapter 490 Searching
After Fang Yue carefully put away the utensils, he continued to shuttle through the city.
He paid attention to every corner where clues might be hidden, and he was constantly thinking about the next step of action.
The streets are still full of monsters, and the monsters are busy carrying out their own activities.
Fang Yue walked through one store after another, passing by all kinds of monsters.
Suddenly, he heard a fierce argument not far away. Fang Yue's heart moved and he quietly approached the source of the sound.
I saw a group of monsters gathered in front of a stall, seemingly arguing over the price of an item.
Fang Yue looked curiously and saw a stone emitting a strange light placed on the stall.
Although the light is weak, it gives people a mysterious feeling.
Fang Yue couldn't help but think of the mysterious artifact he had just obtained, and wondered whether this stone was also related to an ancient magic weapon or a mysterious place.
He stood on the periphery of the crowd, observing quietly.
The demon tribes who were arguing each had their own opinions. Some thought the stone was priceless, while others thought it was just an ordinary stone.
Fang Yue listened carefully to their argument, trying to get some useful information from it.
At this moment, a tall demon clan stood up and said loudly:
"I want this stone. No matter what it is, I'm willing to pay a high price."
When the other demon clan saw this, they expressed their dissatisfaction, but they did not dare to confront this tall demon clan.
Fang Yue looked at this tall demon clan and saw that he was actually an eagle clan member.
He seemed to have seen this Eagle Tribe on the Qingmang Mountain. If he remembered correctly, this demon was right next to the mysterious Lord.
Fang Yue's heart trembled. If the Eagle Clan is really related to the mysterious Lord, then the matter may be even more complicated.
He continued to observe calmly, secretly thinking about how to deal with it.
The eagle clan demon clan paid the money and picked up the stone, with a trace of imperceptible pride flashing in his eyes.
Fang became more and more certain that this stone was anything but ordinary, and was probably closely related to the ancient magic weapon or mysterious place he was pursuing.
The Eagle Clan Monster Clan took the stone and prepared to leave. Fang Yue hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to follow quietly.
How could the hawk demon detect Fang Yue's pursuit? He walked steadily through several streets and came to a quiet small courtyard.
The Eagle Clan Monster Clan opened the door and walked in. Fang Yue hid in the shadows not far away, observing the situation in the small courtyard.
After a while, low voices of conversation came from the small courtyard.
Fang Yue circulated his energy and listened to the movements in the small courtyard.
Through the closed courtyard door, one could vaguely hear the unique voice of the Eagle Clan and the other slightly hoarse voice conversing.
"The matters assigned by the Lord must be completed as soon as possible. This stone may be the key." There was a hint of urgency in the voice of the Eagle Clan Demon Clan.
"But what is so special about this stone? Why does the Lord value it so much?" Another voice asked doubtfully.
The Eagle Tribe lowered his voice slightly: "It is said that this stone is closely connected with that mysterious place. It may be able to find the key to unlock the mysterious power, and then help the Lord realize his grand plan."
"Then what should we do next?" the hoarse voice asked.
"Keep the stone properly first, and when the time is right, then follow the Lord's instructions to go to Qingmang Mountain to revive the ancient demon general.
However, during this period, be careful of the missing human being. This person is so powerful that no ordinary demon king can match him. "The tone of the Eagle Clan Monster Clan was full of vigilance.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a human being. It's just an exaggeration. Besides, we are just helping the Lord find something, not fighting monsters."
"Hmph, don't take it lightly. The Lord's plan cannot be compromised, and any potential threats must be treated with caution." The Eagle Clan Monster Clan said seriously.
"I know, I will be careful. But are humans really that powerful? They can make you so vigilant." The owner of the hoarse voice was still somewhat disapproving.
The Eagle Clan Monster Clan frowned: "You have never seen that human's method, so you don't know how powerful it is. This man is not only powerful, but also thoughtful. If he destroys the Lord's plan, we will all suffer. rise."
"Okay, let's take good care of this stone now and wait for the Lord's next instructions." The owner of the hoarse voice also became solemn.
Afterwards, there was no sound in the courtyard.
Fang Yue continued to lurk in the shadows, thinking about his next move.
He understood that the situation now became more critical and he must find a way to destroy the mysterious Lord's plan as soon as possible.
Fang Yue frowned, secretly thinking about countermeasures. He knew he couldn't act rashly and had to plan carefully.
At this moment, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the small courtyard. Fang Yue immediately became alert and hid his aura again.
I saw the Eagle Clan Demon Clan and the owner with the hoarse voice walking out of the yard. They glanced around vigilantly, and then walked in the other direction.
The Eagle Clan Demon Clan and his accomplices walked very quickly, as if they had something urgent to deal with.
They passed through several streets and came to a more remote place.
There is a dilapidated building here that looks like an abandoned warehouse.
The Eagle Clan Demon Clan and his accomplices walked into the warehouse, while Fang Yue hid in a nearby corner and observed their actions.
He saw them busy moving some things in the warehouse, seemingly preparing for the Lord's plan.

At the same time, on the other side of this demon city.
The tiger demon left and came back, stopping the fox girl.
The tiger demon stared at the fox girl fiercely, his eyes full of greed and ferocity.
"Little fox, do you think you can escape by finding a helper from a wild demon? I didn't expect this king to be back again!" the tiger demon threatened.
The fox girl's face was full of fear, but her eyes showed stubbornness.
"I won't go with you, and even if I die, I won't hand over the secret treasure to you evil monsters." The girl from the fox tribe said firmly.
The tiger demon's eyes widened with anger as he approached the fox girl step by step.
"Huh, if you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink wine as a penalty. You have to go today, and you have to go if you don't." The tiger demon said and reached out to grab the fox girl.
At this moment, a ray of light flashed, and the tiger demon's hand was bounced back. The fox girl looked at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of her in surprise.
"It's you again!" the tiger demon said through gritted teeth.
It turned out that after Fang Yue saved the girl from the Fox tribe before, he was worried about her safety and left a mark on her body. When the tiger demon appeared again, Fang Yue sensed it immediately and rushed there in time.
Fang Yue looked at the tiger demon coldly.
"I said, don't bully her again. It seems you don't have a long memory." Fang Yue said.
The tiger demon roared: "You're just a wild demon, don't be too arrogant. We were careless last time, but you are not so lucky this time."
However, there was a trace of imperceptible panic in the tiger demon's eyes.
Although he spoke tough, he also knew in his heart that Fang Yue's strength should not be underestimated.
He had already suffered a lot in the last fight. How dare he take action against Fang Yue this time.
I just don’t want to lose face.
After threatening him at this moment, he didn't dare to stay any longer. He immediately turned around and ran away.
The fox girl looked at the retreating figure of the tiger demon. The tension in her heart eased slightly, but she still had lingering fears.
Fang Yue looked at the direction in which the tiger demon was leaving, thoughtfully.
He knew that the Black Wind King behind the tiger demon would not give up, and it would not be long before he would fall into the trap.
With the demon tribe now frantically searching for him, they had to find another way to hunt down the great demon king.
And now, using the conflict between the tiger demon and the fox girl is his plan to lure out the Black Wind Demon King.
Fang Yue was thinking about the plan in his mind. He turned to look at the fox girl and said softly: "Okay, it has left. You should be careful."
The fox tribe girl looked at Fang Yue, her eyes full of gratitude and worry: "My benefactor, you saved me again. This is the secret treasure left to me by my grandfather."
The fox tribe girl held the secret treasure tightly and continued: "I don't know what its specific function is, but my grandfather repeatedly told me to take good care of it before he died. Now because of it, I am in such a dangerous situation. "
Fang Yue frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Don't worry, I will try my best to protect you and the secret treasure. Since this secret treasure is related to King Black Wind, it must be very important. We have to figure out its secret as soon as possible. Maybe this is the key to solving the current dilemma.”
The fox girl nodded, her eyes full of trust: "My dear friend, I believe you. It's just that I really don't know where to find out the secret of the treasure."
Fang Yue looked around and said, "Let's find a safe place to hide first, and then slowly study this secret treasure. Now there are dangers everywhere in Demon City, and we can't take it lightly."
The two walked carefully through the demon city, looking for a place to hide.
They avoided busy streets and areas that might be patrolled by monsters, and finally found a secluded courtyard.
After entering this uninhabited courtyard, Fang Yue carefully checked the surrounding environment and made sure that there was no danger before letting the fox girl sit down.
Fang Yue looked at the fox girl and said softly: "Now we have to think carefully about how to unlock the secret of this treasure."
The fox girl frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she said: "My dear, I really can't think of any way to unlock the secret of the secret treasure. I only know that grandpa attaches great importance to this secret treasure, but he didn't tell me its specific use."
Fang Yue stood up and took the secret treasure given to him by the fox girl.
This is a bell.
Fang Yue looked carefully at the bell in his hand. The bell exuded a simple atmosphere and had some strange lines on its surface, as if it was telling an ancient story.
He shook the bell gently, but it didn't make any sound, which made him even more curious about the secret of the bell.
"This bell looks ordinary, but it gives people a mysterious feeling." Fang Yue said in a low voice.
The fox girl looked at the bell with doubts in her eyes: "My dear, I don't know why the secret treasure my grandpa left me is a bell that doesn't ring."
Fang Yue thought for a moment and said: "Maybe the secret of this bell is not in its sound, but in other aspects. We can take a closer look at its texture and material to see if we can find clues."
They began to carefully study every detail of the bell.
Fang Yue discovered that the material of the bell seemed not to be ordinary metal, but a material he had never seen before.
The patterns on the bell are also very complex and seem to contain some mysterious power.
"These lines look like ancient runes, but I don't recognize them." Fang Yue said with a frown.
The girl from the fox tribe also came over to observe carefully: "My dear friend, I have never seen such lines before. Grandpa never mentioned it to me either."
Fang Yue fell into deep thought. He knew that it would not be easy to unlock the secret of this bell.
But he also understands that this bell may be the key to solving the current dilemma, and he must find a way to figure out its purpose.
"We can't just rely on our own strength to unlock this secret. Maybe we can find some demons or wise men who have studied ancient runes and see if they can recognize these lines." Fang Yue said.
The girl from the fox clan nodded: "My benefactor is right, but in this demon city, where are we going to find such a demon clan? My grandfather did have a few friends during his lifetime, but they..."
The fox girl lowered her head slightly and looked a little sad: "It's just that I don't know where they went after grandpa passed away. And even if they are found, I'm not sure if they are willing to help us."
Fang Yue gently patted the fox tribe girl's shoulder and comforted: "Don't be discouraged. We can try to find out the whereabouts of your grandfather's friends. Maybe there will be clues."
The fox girl raised her head, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes: "My benefactor, where do we start asking?"
Fang Yue thought for a moment and then said: "We can go to some places where your grandfather used to go often, or ask those monsters who have interacted with your grandfather. Maybe we can find some clues about his friends."
As a result, the two began to recall the past activities of the fox girl's grandfather. The fox girl remembered that her grandfather often went to an ancient market where there were many strange items and various monsters.
"My benefactor, we can go to that market and have a look. Maybe we can meet some monsters who know my grandfather's friends." The girl from the fox tribe said.
Fang Yue nodded: "Okay, let's go to the market now."
They carefully left the hidden courtyard and walked towards the ancient market. Along the way, they remained vigilant and avoided potentially dangerous places.
When they came to the market, they found that it was still bustling with activity. Various demon clans were selecting items in front of the stalls, and the sounds of bargaining came and went.
Fang Yue and the fox girl walked through the market, paying attention to the conversations of the demon clan around them, hoping to hear news about the fox girl's grandfather's friend.
However, after searching for a long time, they could not find any useful clues.
Fang Yue frowned: "It seems that it is unlikely to find clues in this market. Let's think of other ways."
The girl from the fox tribe was also a little disappointed, but she still said firmly: "My benefactor, we will definitely find a way."
Just as they were about to leave the market, an old demon clan suddenly stopped them.
"Are you looking for someone?" the old demon clan asked. (End of chapter)
