Heading to Qingmang Mountain

Chapter 47: Heading to Qingmang Mountain

Xi San and Shui Sheng had left.

Shen Gui now had to start considering the issue of Shang Yang.

With Shang Yang causing trouble like this, his plan to complete the task Nuwa had assigned him through Huoyun City was completely ruined.

But if he didn't deal with Huoyun City, how could he get revenge for Nuwa?

After thinking for a long time, Shen Gui finally decided to go meet Shang Yang first.

Although, barring any surprises, Shang Yang would likely become one of Donghuang Tai Yi's Ten Great Demon Saints, that was a matter for the future.

At least, for now, Shang Yang was an enemy of the Demon Country.

As the saying goes, your greatest enemy often knows you best.

Since Shang Yang was an enemy of the Demon Country, she would undoubtedly possess a lot of intelligence about them. Therefore, Shen Gui might need Shang Yang's help to complete Nuwa's task.

The only thing he needed to worry about was that he had killed people from Qingmang Mountain before. Shang Yang shouldn't know it was him, right?

However, despite his worries, Shen Gui honestly set off.

After all, with Huoyun City destroyed, he had no other choice.

He quietly left Blackwater City and, following the direction of Qingmang Mountain that Xi San and Shui Sheng had provided, Shen Gui set foot on the land of Southern Jambudvipa.

Qingmang Mountain was just an ordinary mountain in Southern Jambudvipa, only becoming famous because a great demon like Shang Yang emerged from it.

In any case, Shen Gui couldn't see anything special about the mountain before him. Qingmang Mountain was located at the border of Southern Jambudvipa, so Shen Gui didn't spend much time traveling from Blackwater City to Qingmang Mountain.

However, as he approached Qingmang Mountain, Shen Gui discovered that demon soldiers were patrolling all the main paths leading into the mountain.

Shen Gui wasn't surprised by this.

After all, situated in Southern Jambudvipa and being an enemy of the Demon Country, it would be strange if Qingmang Mountain had no defenses.

Descending from the clouds, Shen Gui walked directly towards the mountain path leading into Qingmang Mountain.

Since he intended to meet Shang Yang, he no longer tried to sneak in. Otherwise, if he were discovered, it would inevitably lead to some unpleasant misunderstandings.

Therefore, he planned to pay a direct and open visit.

As Shen Gui revealed himself and walked towards the mountain path, the demon soldiers guarding the path quickly spotted him.

"Who goes there? Halt! This is Qingmang Mountain, Lord Shang Yang's territory. Unauthorized personnel are forbidden!"

Looking at the demon soldier blocking his path, Shen Gui released a trace of his aura and said, "I have urgent business and wish to visit the Mountain Lord of Qingmang Mountain. Please inform her."

Sensing the trace of aura Shen Gui released, the demon soldier's expression changed.

He had never felt such an aura even from some of the other great demons within Qingmang Mountain. If he had to compare it, it was only when Shang Yang repelled Huoyun City in the past. He had caught a fleeting glimpse from afar, and the aura released during their battle could be compared to this one.

Although he didn't know where Shen Gui came from, this demon soldier knew that this was not something he could handle. He was just one of the countless demon soldiers guarding the outermost perimeter of Qingmang Mountain. Such matters needed to be reported.

Bowing to Shen Gui, the demon soldier's tone became much more polite: "Please wait a moment, honored sir. I will go and inform Lord Shang Yang immediately."

With that, the demon soldier immediately walked into Qingmang Mountain.

Seeing this, Shen Gui ignored the gazes of the other demon soldiers on the mountain path and stood in place, waiting.
