Chapter 635: Chapter 232: Demon Clan’s Last Words, Demon Emperor’s Strongest (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

Outer Heaven Beast Swamp, Underground World.

At this moment in the Hu Family Mansion, Qin Ai was sitting quietly in the reception hall, sipping tea. There was no sign of impatience on his face, as if it wasn’t he who was eager to see the Patriarch of the Hu Family.

He was so calm because he knew for sure that the Hu Family Patriarch would meet him, as he was, after all, representing the Fu Family.

In the entire Underground World, no great demon family could ignore the status of the Fu Family, so the Hu Family would definitely make face for the Fu Family.

The same was true when the Hu Family and other families sent people to the Fu Family; the whole Underground World was bound to have such a situation.

Moreover, he was also the leader of the Fu Family’s trading group, and since he was eligible to go to the Surface World, no matter which family he visited, they would treat him with caution.

If you know this world, most of the demonic beasts don’t realize that there is a Surface World above, thinking that the Underground World is all there is.

Thus, ignorance is the source of happiness. If he were just an ordinary member of the Demon Clan, he might have followed the usual path until death took him away from this world.

As Qin Ai was waiting and lost in thoughts, there was a sound of footsteps outside, followed by the Hu Family Steward courteously opening the door, and a middle-aged man followed behind.

This man was simply dressed; compared to the Hu Family Steward in his bright clothes, the steward looked more like the master. Who would know that this simple middle-aged man was the Patriarch of the Hu Family, Hu Weiyong?

As soon as Qin Ai saw Hu Weiyong, he stood up and respectfully saluted, “Fu Family trading group manager Qin Ai, I have met the Hu Family Patriarch. I apologize for the sudden intrusion and hope you won’t blame me.”

Hu Weiyong waved his hand with a smile.

“No harm done. However, I believe that today should be the day you returned from the Surface World. Why are you in such a hurry to visit my Hu family? Did something unexpected happen on this trip?”

Hu Weiyong sat in the main seat as he spoke; the Hu Family steward walked out quietly, closing the door.

Qin Ai wasn’t surprised that Hu Weiyong knew about the Fu Family’s trip to the Surface World, as it wasn’t a secret that the great demon families kept each other informed.

Qin Ai found it unnecessary to keep anything secret because Fu Yuanpei came to seek help from the Hu Family Patriarch with the intention of not hiding anything.

Although the Underground World is full of powerful demons, the competition between families is benign; moreover, when it came to matters beyond the heavens, they were united.

So when Qin Ai finished explaining the events of this time, Hu Weiyong couldn’t help but frown.

How could there be so many Human Nascent Soul Cultivators entering the Beast Swamp? If there were only one or two, it would be understandable, but Qin Ai encountered five or six and even more afterward, which was quite strange.

Everyone knew that since the birth of the Beast Swamp, human cultivators had abandoned it, and their only requirement for the Beast Swamp was to disallow the Demon Clan from entering the Human World.

However, due to the special nature of the Beast Swamp, it had been connected to the Human World under the new Heavenly and Earth Rules since the ancient cultivation had been destroyed.

But in the ten thousand years since ancient times, humans and demons had nothing to do with each other; please know that they didn’t live in the Underground World and were active in the Surface Beast Swamp.

However, after the incident within the Human Clan, the so-called Wilderness appeared in the Human World, a place that could be said to be rejected by the World, and that was difficult to deal with.

What’s even more frustrating is that, whether it’s because of the human arrival or not, a new Heaven and Earth punishment emerged in the Beast Swamp afterward, and the two tribes could only help each other during difficult times.

As for what happened specifically afterward, there were no records left up to now, but the end result was that the orthodox Demon Clan escaped into the current Underground World.

As for those exiled humans, they disappeared, but their influence on the demon race was extensive.

Until now, many human customs and cultures still influenced the entire Underground World, such as their architecture, which inherited human culture.

However, due to the ancestral teachings, all the great demon families knew the truth about the world, while the ordinary Demon Clan knew nothing, and the great demon families would arrange elite confidants to travel between the Surface World to maintain the continuous operation and resource supply of the entire Underground World.

By now, the entire underground Demon City had gone through an unknown number of generations of the demon race, and its structure had been completely established.

Inside the room, Hu Weiyong, after listening to Qin Ai’s account, couldn’t help but frown.

“It’s strange. For so many years, there haven’t been any large-scale groups of human cultivators entering the Beast Swamp. What’s with this sudden influx of human elites?”
