Chapter 187: Uncovering the Identity

Chapter 187: Uncovering the Identity (Additional Update)
The beast tide has been resolved.

On the way back to the city, Yu Ze looked at Si Ye and said, "There are quite a few of these monsters, but their realms are generally not high. I can deal with them with the city's guards in some time. But there is no need for you, a royal beast, to come all the way here to help. Tell me the truth, do you have anything else to do?"

Sang Luo kept silent with a gloomy face. Si Ye thought she was injured. After checking that she was fine, he replied, "I really can't hide it from you. I'm looking for a high-level demon this time. I heard that he appeared in the tribe outside Liaoshou City."

"Tell me about it, maybe I can help you a little."

Si Ye briefly recounted the whole story.

"I seem to have seen the man you mentioned." Yu Ze took out a wanted poster and threw it to him. "All the orcs of the Ninggong tribe disappeared overnight. When I investigated with my father some time ago, I found that this man's whereabouts were secretive. After the fight, he even leaked his demonic energy. Unfortunately, we were unable to catch him. My father gathered all the beast kings and issued a wanted poster and summoned many talented people, but there was no good news. Many orcs of the tribe continued to disappear. It happened that you came here and helped us solve this urgent problem."

Si Ye looked at the wanted poster and said, "Yes, it's him. Do you have any other clues?"

"The last time this person appeared was in Gukou City." Yu Ze said, "Since the wanted order was issued, he has become more cautious and rarely shows up in his true form. Three days ago, he disguised himself as a farmer transporting goods and went through the city forest to a tribe."

……

Gukou City.

As soon as Sang Luo landed, he smelled the familiar rotten stench. There were many nests of blood demon puppets hidden in this place!

She and Si Ye went straight to Huanglong and destroyed two underground tombs.

When heading to the third tomb, I ran into a man in a black cloak. There were dozens of rows of corpses under his feet. He looked at the person outside the door and said in a sinister and low voice, "A bunch of annoying ants actually followed us here!"

Yu Ze rushed forward with bloodshot eyes and punched Yu Cang, but he disappeared before his eyes like a phantom in an instant.

Boom——

The entire tomb collapsed. Si Ye said "Oh no!", smashed the closed stone door, and quickly carried Sang Luo back to the ground.

Yu Ze and Hao Yue followed closely and escaped.

Several people followed the fleeing demons.

Si Ye was halfway through the chase when he suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked at Hao Yue beside him and his face turned cold, "Why is it you?!"

……

Sang Luo followed behind Yu Ze, walking along the dirt path through the deep forest.

The air was very quiet, and the only sound was the crunching of fallen leaves under the two people's feet.

Si Ye and Hao Yue are missing.

They were separated by the illusion.

From time to time, red-eyed black birds flew overhead, making strange calls.

Yu Ze in front of her suddenly stopped, and Sang Luo almost bumped into his back. The man turned around and looked at her with a smile, "If you are scared, you can hold my hand."

He held out his hand to her.

Sang Luo saw that under the moonlight, his hands looked pale and almost bloodless.

"I'm not interested in males who are engaged." Sang Luo stared at him and sneered. Yu Ze didn't care and took two steps towards her. "Hao Yue doesn't like me either. I can cancel the engagement, come with me, and give me a child."

"nausea."

Sang Luo left a word and strode forward.

"You have quite a temper." Yu Ze touched his mouth and followed him, "You can't get out of this illusion."

"That may not be the case." The other party's cultivation was higher than hers, and Sang Luo wasted some time breaking the illusion.

The turbid air cleared instantly.

Yu Ze stopped where he was and did not move forward. He stared deeply at her back and whispered in a low voice, "Such strong fertility and talent. If I could get you..." His voice was blown away by the wind in an instant. Sang Luo heard it clearly with her mental power. Her body stiffened for a moment, and then she walked away as if nothing had happened.

"Luoluo!" Si Ye came back quickly.

He held a bloody head in his hands.

He chopped off Yu Cang's head with his own hands, threw it on the ground, and it turned into a wisp of black gas and dissipated.

The two groups returned to the city and went their separate ways.

Sang Luo wanted to stay in the city for two more days, so Si Ye stayed with her.

At night, Sang Luo lay on top of him and asked, "Aye, what do you think of Yu Ze's character?"

"Very honest and upright."

"... Could it be that you are mistaken?"

"Think about what kind of gift I have? No lie can escape the eyes of judgment."

"You used the Eye of Judgment on him?"

"No, I never use this ability on people I'm close to or trust."

"...With your personality, you are too easy to suffer losses." Sang Luo sighed.

Si Ye's tone suddenly turned cold, "What happened? Tell me, did he do anything to you?"

A few days ago at the inn, Si Ye noticed that Yu Ze had some bad intentions towards her, but after all, they were brothers who had grown up together, and the other party was also engaged, so he didn't want to question his character.

Sang Luo was shocked. "He touched my hand. What should I do?"

Si Ye was furious, and immediately got dressed and got out of bed, "I will go to the Tianhu tribe and kill him now!"

Sang Luo hurriedly pulled Si Ye back to the bed, "He is not Yu Ze."

"You mean, someone disguised him? ... There's nothing wrong with his aura. I grew up with him, so I'm sure there's no mistake about that."

"I used the Eye of Judgment on him. Do you think I saw it?"

Si Ye said nothing and looked into her eyes.

Sang Luo continued, "I didn't see anything."

Si Ye had a strange look on his face. The Eyes of Judgment could distinguish truth from lies, but it was useless on one type of person... the dead who had lost their minds.

"Luoluo, you have a guess in your mind, just tell me, who is 'he'?"

"One of the seven demon envoys, Yu Cang."

Si Ye frowned, but he was not too surprised. The "Yu Cang" he killed last time was too easy. The Seven Demon Envoys could not have only this much strength. "But how can you be sure it's him?"

"Fei Yuan said that Yu Cang has the innate ability of parasitism. I guess he disguises his identity through parasitism. Last time in the illusion, I heard him say that he wanted to parasitize my body and wanted me to give birth to his child." Sang Luo felt a chill when he thought about it. "This guy is quite perverted. From what I heard, he didn't mean to let me give birth. He wanted to occupy my body to get close to you."

Si Ye's expression became uglier. "He was the mastermind behind the last illusion. He wanted to use the illusion to take away your body."

"Well, Yu Cang used illusion to separate us, but you were still nearby at the time. If he attacked me, you would feel it immediately, so he didn't dare to act rashly. He wanted to use the illusion to transfer me and then find another opportunity to attack. But he didn't expect that I could also use illusion, so he missed this opportunity."

Si Ye was afraid, "If the person beside me had a different soul that day, and I didn't even notice it..."

"Guess who is staring at you right now, is it me or Yu Cang?"

Si Ye got goosebumps all over his body and quickly covered her mouth, "Luoluo, don't make that joke!"
