The disturbance in the Green District soon caught Wu Xuan's attention.
At the Heavenly Martial Directorate Headquarters, Wu Xuan opened his eyes. After looking around, he said to Niu Da,
"Found it!! Right by the Green District's east gate! Brother Niu! I'll go on ahead!"
Niu Da nodded.
"All right!"
With that, Wu Xuan leaped up and merged into the flock of crows.
Meanwhile, in the Green District.
More and more spears of flesh emerged from underground, and the commotion here drew the attention of other members of the Demon Race.
In a tavern, a refined-looking man pushed away the fox woman pressed against him and narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked toward the Green District.
"How could such a vile thing exist in the Demon Capital?"
As he spoke, the man flicked his folding fan. The pattern of stars above the Demon Capital shifted, yet it seemed as though nothing had changed.
Beneath the Green District of the Demon Capital, however, a mass of flesh seemed to have been trapped in place by the light cast down from the stars.
A young man dressed as a guard behind him asked,
"Young Master Cheng, should we..."
The man shook his head.
"This is the Demon Capital, where the Monster Emperor and the Great Sages reside. Things won't get out of hand, and there's no room for us to intervene anyway."
Before Mirror Lake, Cheng Yu frowned slightly at the man's actions. Then, with a thought, he restored the stars above the Demon Capital to their original arrangement.
Inside the tavern, the folding fan in the man's hand suddenly shattered. The guard was about to draw his saber, but the man stopped him and murmured,
"Was what happened this time sanctioned by Prince Shen..."
The crows in the sky
