Chapter 143 - Demon Boy Group (1 more! Asking for monthly votes!)

"You blame me?""Shi Chengxin exposed himself."

"He was the one who revealed his flaws, what does that have to do with me?"

Che Linfang disagreed.

"If it weren’t for you trying to save this guy, would Shi Chengxin have been exposed? He’s been undercover for three to four years!"

Upon saying this, the two demons looked towards Fang Yu.

Their gazes were clearly off, carrying a bit of personal resentment.

Fang Yu, adopting a stereotypical gesture from his homeland, stepped back and raised his hands.

Oh woah woah, you can’t pin this one on me.

As expected, Yue Guang was the first to get unhappy.

To doubt Diao Deyi? That would be doubting Yue Guang himself!

Diao Deyi’s credibility is certainly higher than these two disobedient demons!

"You blame Diao Deyi?"

"Are you kidding me... Have you humans stayed long enough on your turf to lose your brains?"

"What was Shi Chengxin doing at the time?"

"He didn’t try to escape, he bravely faced death for the greater good. And damn it, he even rushed towards our location!"

"If Diao Deyi hadn’t charged out at that moment."

"You!"

"You!"

"And that Hu Shusheng outside, all would’ve been exposed! Including me!"

"You really didn’t grasp the situation!"

"I saw it clear as day, Shi Chengxin was shouting out, he was damn calling out to me, ’Save me!’"

"Save who? Save his life? Who’s going to save his life?"

"You, you, or me?"

"We all don’t want to live anymore, is that it? Jump out to save him!"

"It’s only because I was far away and didn’t follow up, otherwise I wouldn’t have needed Diao Deyi to act, I would have outed him for the greater good myself!"

Yue Guang yelled in a suppressed voice.

He didn’t find these demons to accuse them, but these demons came to trouble him instead, playing the blame game first!

If it weren’t inappropriate to speak loudly here, Yue Guang would have roared out loud already.

These good-for-nothing failures!

"Use your pig brains to think, if Diao Deyi hadn’t acted, given Shi Chengxin’s cowardly behaviors, would he have revealed our identities?"

"Do you still want to save him? How would you save!"

"Show me how you’d save him in that situation!"

"I really want to see how capable you are, that you dare to put the blame on Diao Deyi!"

Yue Guang was clearly getting agitated.

His rant made the two demons lower their heads, not daring to speak.

Seeing this, Fang Yu.

Felt a stir in his heart.

Immediately very tactfully went over and patted Yue Guang’s back.

"Cool down, cool down, this isn’t the place for reprimands."

Look how sensible he is!!

Yue Guang immediately found Fang Yu more agreeable.

This made the other two demons grind their teeth in secret.

Was it intentional or an accident?

Comforting Yue Guang at this time?

Are you trying to embarrass us?

Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting!!

This Diao Deyi, how can he be so repulsive!

Thinking that pleasing Yue Guang would be useful? Pah! Without strength, you are always useless!

In the Demon World, it’s survival of the fittest, you Diao Deyi, a low-level demon, only fit to struggle at the bottom!

The two demons glowered at Fang Yu secretly, but when they saw Yue Guang’s stern look, they quickly averted their gazes and bowed their heads in silence.

"Alright, disperse if there’s nothing else. Also, tell Hu Shusheng to keep a low profile."

"Given Kun Shanhai’s temperament, he’ll eventually drag people down with him."

"Getting involved with him is a last resort strategy, which we’ve already discussed."

As for the target Li Baizhen, demons have been lurking for many years, researching very thoroughly.

Using modern terms, that would be establishing mathematical models.

In Li Baizhen’s ranks.

Deciding who to follow, who is likely to cause trouble, into whose inner circle to securely enter, all these are backed by data.

Otherwise, they couldn’t possibly have been lurking so securely.

If it weren’t for Shi Chengxin being too impatient and besides, Li Baizhen was in a sensitive period recently.

Even if Shi Chengxin said the wrong thing or did the wrong thing, it wouldn’t have been easy to expose the demon identity.

It’s just bad luck and inadequate handling of personal details.

The two demons dispersed.

Yue Guang sighed.

The spirits of the demons have dispersed; the team is hard to lead now.

Actually, Yue Guang somewhat understands why the two demons held resentment.

Although it was Shi Chengxin who exposed himself, and his last actions indeed deserved death.

But it’s natural to feel a certain way seeing one’s own brethren die right in front of one’s eyes.

Especially the last one to make a move was a newbie who had just joined the team.

Compared with such newcomers, the bonds among the Four Demons were deeper; they had been infiltrating together for many years, supporting each other, protecting each other’s identities.

After infiltrating for four or five years, even a cat or dog would develop feelings, let alone demon comrades.

But feelings are feelings, and facts are facts.

Shi Chengxin’s final actions could already be treated as treason.

Hence, Diao Deyi’s actions had no issues, and should have even been rewarded, instead of being resented and ostracized by his demon colleagues.

"These useless creatures can’t be propped up against a wall!"

Yue Guang’s brows furrowed again.

"Ah, it’s my fault, I handled it too roughly."

Fang Yu timely played the role of an innocent victim, though inside he was actually very pleased.

Pfft!

Thinking of competing with me, Diao Deyi?

Don’t you know I have people backing me up!

Your direct bosses are my people, and you still dare to challenge me?

Want to give it a shot?

"No, it’s not related to you."

"They are just too stupid!"

"They are merely a mob after all."

Yue Guang slightly clenched his fists.

"Right now, the resources I can mobilize, the demons I can summon, are all too weak in both strength and capability."

"This is just a quagmire. The lower-level demons are all useless!"

"I need to make notable achievements and need more reliable hands."

"Diao Deyi, let’s climb up together."

"Only when we’re on the same level as the great demon can we secure our interests and claim our share on this big ship."

"Follow me closely."

"The world is vast, and Tianyuan Town is just our starting point!"

Huh?

This guy is quite good at making big promises.

Fang Yu quickly pretended to be emotionally charged, and then suddenly coughed lightly.

Yue Guang was stunned and quickly realized.

The sword strike in Li Baizhen’s courtyard just now had affected Fang Yu’s injury.

He was about to reach out to touch Fang Yu but was caught by Fang Yu with a reverse grip.

"I’ll heal slowly. You conserve your strength."

I’m pretending to be injured, don’t touch me!

If you discover I’m actually fit as a fiddle, that would be the end of me.

Yue Guang obviously didn’t think so much.

His trust in Fang Yu was already quite high.

Seeing such a sensible Fang Yu made those demons look even more useless.

However, there’s no choice, the number of demons infiltrated near Li Baizhen is limited, and they’ve been undercover for many years, hardly any choice.

Fortunately, Yue Guang could transfer some capable demons from other streets to work for him.

Of course, to get powerful demons to obey his commands,

besides pure lineage, one’s own strength is also quite crucial.

He still needs to quickly increase his strength.

Thinking this, Yue Guang patted Fang Yu on the shoulder.

"Take good care of yourself, don’t mess around these few days, just stay peacefully in the Foolish Underworld, I’ll handle the rest."

"Okay."

Yue Guang left.

Fang Yu also breathed a sigh of relief.

He hadn’t expected that in Li Baizhen’s team, while internal strife was happening,

the demon team also started to show internal conflicts.

Seems like you guys are getting together then.

Timely.

Fang Yu guessed that the demons F3 probably wouldn’t act against him.

At most, they would just bear a grudge in their hearts.

After all, they are undercover as moles, they can’t reveal their identities over impulsive emotions.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to remain undercover for so many years.

Assured that the demons F3 were probably not a threat to him, Fang Yu took steps toward the Martial Hall.

As for Yue Guang, now in his eyes, Fang Yu’s status and position are very high, he’s not worried about Yue Guang suspecting him.

Unless he openly ruins the game, not wanting to play anymore.

Otherwise, he could keep Yue Guang fooled till the end!

At this moment, Fang Yu could appreciate the joy Shi Chengxin found in fooling others.

But Shi Chengxin’s fooled ones are all dead, so he had to remain cautious, not to get too carried away.

He could already see the silhouette of the Martial Hall ahead.

Fang Yu quickened his pace and strode in.

Unexpectedly, right in front of him, he saw someone.

Fang Yu:...
