Here, two Demon Kings reside.

A Demon King is one who has stepped into the Heavenly Immortal realm, capable of transforming into human form, concealing their demonic aura, and appearing no different from mortals.

At this moment, the two Demon Kings were listening intently to a lesser demon recounting stories heard from the human race, their expressions focused and full of interest.

Seeing that the lesser demon was captivated by its own storytelling, it began to fantasize about the rewards it would receive.

Unexpectedly, the story stopped abruptly at its most crucial point.

Both Demon Kings' faces fell, and they immediately berated the lesser demon angrily, driving it out of their cave dwelling.

The Flower Demon looked at the Fox Demon and said:

"The story was just getting exciting, and then it stopped. Are you willing to go to Qingshan City with me and find out who this story came from?"

The Fox Demon pondered for a moment and replied, "We can already transform now, so going to a human city shouldn't be a problem, but…"

"What are you worried about, sister? We are already in the Heavenly Immortal realm; what trouble could we encounter in the Earthly Immortal Realm? Let's go take a look together."

"If that's the case, then let's go investigate. If we encounter any danger, we'll return to the mountain quickly."

After the two Demon Kings had made their decision, they packed their belongings and headed straight for Qingshan City.

In just a few days, rumors about "Su Yang the Storyteller" were spreading like wildfire throughout the Earthly Immortal Realm.

From the mouths of mortals, to mountain spirits and wild monsters, and then among the Demon Clan, the stories Su Yang told had already spread to every corner of Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Whether it was the powerful and influential, or cultivators, or even strong demons, all were filled with curiosity.

Everyone inquired, and finally learned that all those stories originated from a storyteller in Qingshan City.

Thus, demons, the powerful, and cultivators all set off for Qingshan City, just to catch a glimpse of the storyteller's true appearance.

They all wanted to find out who this storyteller was, and where those stories came from.

Before long, people from various factions had gathered in Qingshan City.

These people searched everywhere and finally pinpointed the location where Su Yang told his stories, and they all rushed to the inn.

This time, over a thousand people flooded into the inn.

For a moment, the Fox Demon sensed several powerful auras around her and was shocked. She whispered to the Flower Demon beside her:

"What's going on? Why are so many cultivators gathered here?"

The Flower Demon's expression was equally grave. It was one thing to have these human cultivators, but there were also several top-tier powerhouses!

Among them were Demon Kings who were in the same Heavenly Immortal realm as them!

The two Demon Kings were utterly bewildered, not understanding why this inn would attract so many powerhouses.

In fact, it wasn't just them who were confused; many cultivators and Demon Kings around them also showed looks of surprise.

Many of them were visiting for the first time and hadn't expected such an inconspicuous inn to attract so many masters.

As more and more people arrived, the inn, though small, could still accommodate everyone.

In a corner, the City God held a jade token and secretly calculated: "I didn't expect that just a little bit of information being spread out would attract so many human cultivators and demon powerhouses."

"If I were to record the stories here and sell them for resources, I'm afraid my cultivation could advance greatly."

Just as the City God was lost in thought, footsteps were heard from outside the inn.

A woman walked in slowly and suddenly sensed a large amount of demonic energy emanating from the inn, her expression instantly tensing.

"This is a human territory, how can there be so much demonic energy? No, I have to go in and take a look."

Before the woman could finish speaking, she strode into the inn.

As soon as she entered, she sensed something unusual.

How could such a small inn accommodate over a thousand people?

What surprised her even more was that she sensed the auras of many cultivators, several Demon King-level existences, and even a few special auras belonging to the Heavenly Court!

She scanned the room and found that the City God of Qingshan City was also among them.

"This…"

The woman was filled with confusion, but she still found a seat and sat down.

Although she didn't know why everyone had gathered here, she had a vague feeling that something was about to happen.

The City God in the corner initially thought Su Yang had arrived, so he looked up towards the entrance, but that glance made him jump in shock!

"Heavens! Isn't this the Third Holy Mother!? Shouldn't she be guarding Mount Hua? How could she be in Qingshan?

Although Qingshan isn't far from Mount Hua, if she left without permission, isn't she afraid of being held accountable by the Heavenly Court?"

The City God was filled with disbelief and fear as he looked at the seated Third Holy Mother, unable to help but swallow.

Just then, two more people walked in through the inn entrance.

"Sister, it should be this place."

Changxi said cheerfully, "The traces left on the stone tablet brought back by the little rabbit probably relate to what happened in this inn."

Xi He listened and nodded gently, saying, "This little inn really has some hidden depths."

Changxi also showed a look of surprise and said, "Sister, I really didn't notice until you mentioned it. Why have so many Demon Kings and cultivators come?"

"It doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with us. We're just here to listen to stories, let's find a seat first," Xi He replied calmly.

"Okay."

The two found seats and sat down. The City God, at this moment, had a flicker of dullness in his eyes.

Although he couldn't recognize the identities of the two women, he had only felt the aura of Primordial Deities emanating from them on a very few people from the underworld.

"What's going on? Primordial Deities are actually appearing? They can't be fake, right?" the City God was shocked.

The previous influx of so many members of the Demon Clan and cultivators had already made him feel incredible. The appearance of the Third Holy Mother had further thrown him into a state of confusion.

And now, even Primordial Deities had shown up!

At the same time, Su Yang's figure slowly walked out from the second floor of the inn.

He had already come to an agreement with the innkeeper last night to buy the inn and had it redecorated.

That's why this inconspicuous-looking small shop could easily accommodate over a thousand people.

This involved spatial techniques, which, by all rights, should not be achievable by a cultivator in the Other Shore Realm.

Yet, he had accomplished it. As for how he did it, it was clearly closely related to the last reward he received!

"Mr. Su, you're finally out! We couldn't wait any longer!"

"Yes, Mr. Su, what exactly was that Buddhist light and the six-character mantra about? You haven't explained it clearly to us yet, hurry up and start!"

Everyone had already lost their patience. The cultivators and Demon Kings who had arrived for the first time were all staring intently at Su Yang.

Their hearts were filled with questions: How could such a young junior know these secret matters? These were things even they had never heard of!

But they naturally wouldn't know that even Empress Nuwa, a Sage, couldn't discern Su Yang's origins. How could they?

To think that in just one night, this small inn had attracted so many guests!

Su Yang smiled slightly, looking at the crowd below, a sense of anticipation already in his heart.
