The Human World.
The Northern Barrens.
Su Ye slowly opened his eyes.
"Brother Aotian, you're awake?"
Jiang Zhishen turned and gave Su Ye a thumbs-up.
"You're something else, brother. You can still sleep at a time like this."
To keep Su Ye's identity secret, no one on the Xu Yinyin Team called him by his real name anymore. Even in private, they called him Long Aotian.
And right now,
they were returning to Madam Ross's Manor from the concert venue.
To lure out the Drunken Dream King, who was hiding behind the scenes, they hadn't spent these past few days holed up in the Manor. They had kept going out.
They had even held several concerts.
And yet...
There had been assassination attempts, but only by disposable pawns.
Not one serious move had been made.
Forget the Drunken Dream King.
No one from the Blood Demon Cult had even appeared.
The team was starting to wonder whether the Demon King in hiding would show up at all.
"Man, according to the schedule, that was our last concert in the Northern Barrens. We're leaving tomorrow. Do you think... that Drunken Dream King will really show up?"
Jiang Zhishen leaned toward Su Ye and muttered to him.
He had been ready to show everyone what he could do.
But who would have thought...
Nothing but petty thugs had come after them.
Lately, Jiang Zhishen could barely work up the interest to fight.
"Who knows? Maybe he'll make his move at our next stop, Feng Ying. After all, Feng Ying is the land of freedom."
Jiang Zhishen: "...That joke wasn't funny."
Just then, the car entered the Manor. Once it stopped, everyone filed out, relaxing one after another.
In all the Northern Barrens, Madam Ross's Manor was probably where they felt safest.
