Ch 304: Liu Dongyue’s Return
This statement immediately stunned everyone.
What does it mean to impersonate members of the Penglai Demon Race?
Everyone was momentarily confused by what the two men were saying.
“What? Don’t understand?”
The two men glanced at everyone, as if looking at a group of fools. One of the envoys said, “Let me be clear with you all, we of the Penglai Demon Race have never sent anyone here. You have been deceived!”
Boom!
Hearing this, it was as if five thunders struck the top of everyone’s heads.
Was Liu Dongyue a fake?
“Sowing Discord with Falsehoods!”
At this time, Shangguan Wanwan came over with her people. Her gaze fixed on the two Penglai Demon Race envoys, she said, “Jin Shengnan, you found two people from somewhere and impersonated the Penglai Demon Race. Taking advantage of the Young Master’s absence, you came here to sow discord with falsehoods, and to undermine our relationship with the Young Master. What are your intentions?”
Jin Shengnan, who was standing nearby, did not expect Shangguan Wanwan to say this.
Hearing Shangguan Wanwan’s words, others also looked at the two Penglai Demon Race members with a hint of suspicion.
But no matter how they looked at it, from left to right, up and down, these two were indeed members of the Penglai Demon Race.
“Saying that we are impersonators?”
The two men laughed when they heard this.
They unleashed their auras, and powerful demonic auras billowed out. The smell of that demonic aura was indeed that of the Penglai Demon Race.
Now, everyone believed it.
However, what everyone could not accept was that Liu Dongyue was fake?
Not a real Penglai Demon Race member?
However, Shangguan Wanwan already knew that her previous statement alone would not make everyone stand on her side. So Shangguan Wanwan suddenly smiled and said, “If they are truly members of the Penglai Demon Race, then things are even clearer. Your strength is similar to that of the Young Master, and your ages are also similar. You should have a competitive relationship within the race, right? Now the Young Master is a favorite in front of the Star Envoy, and he carries even more weight in front of the Penglai Demon Ancestor.”
“So you are jealous of the Young Master, and you came here to sow discord, wanting to use us to deal with the Young Master, so that you two can gain more resources within the race, right?”
Shangguan Wanwan was immediately proposing a conspiracy theory.
Not only the Green Snake Race people, even the two Penglai Demon Race envoys were stunned.
It really sounded like that was the case.
“Bullshit!”
One of the envoys said angrily, “There is no one named Liu Dongyue in our Penglai Demon Race. Our Penglai Demon Race’s orthodox surname is Ji, not Liu!”
The other envoy appeared calmer, and said with a cold laugh, “There’s no point in talking. Since you don’t believe us, then call Liu Dongyue out, and let’s have a face-to-face confrontation. I am now increasingly curious about this person who is impersonating our Penglai Demon Race.”
“The Young Master is not here.”
Shangguan Wanwan said calmly.
“Not here?”
“Could he have run away?”
The two envoys sneered.
“You bunch of fools, you’ve been tricked by an imposter!”
Hearing the two’s words, everyone present turned pale.
Could Liu Dongyue really have run away?
Could he really be a fake?
Thinking about everything that had happened these days, they suddenly realized that it might really be the case.
“Could it be that Liu Dongyue knew that the two real envoys were coming, so he ran away?”
“No way?”
Other Demon Race members from other races were also stunned.
They had really been played.
The High-Level Personnel did not speak, but they fixed their gazes on Shangguan Wanwan, seemingly wanting her to give an explanation.
Shangguan Wanwan did not know what to say for a moment. Now she could only hope that Liu Dongyue had really run away and would not return. If Liu Dongyue really did return, he would undoubtedly die.
But things went against her wishes.
At that moment, Shangguan Zhan beside her suddenly sensed something.
The Space-Time World Bead in his Storage Bag reacted.
A Teleportation Array appeared in the sky above.
Below the triple Teleportation Array, a figure appeared faintly.
Shangguan Wanwan was greatly surprised, because the other Space-Time World Bead was on Liu Dongyue. Liu Dongyue was back!
“Swish!”
Liu Dongyue’s figure appeared before everyone.
In an instant, the entire scene fell silent.
Everyone’s gaze fell on Liu Dongyue, their expressions complex—belief, suspicion, and even anger.
“What’s going on here?”
“Don’t you recognize me?”
Liu Dongyue shrugged and said, “Go, get me a cup of tea, I’m thirsty.”
After Liu Dongyue finished speaking, he found that no one moved.
Just as Liu Dongyue was feeling strange, a voice came: “You are Liu Dongyue? So you are the one impersonating my Penglai Demon Race, you really have the guts!”
Hearing this voice, Liu Dongyue looked at the speaker and saw the two Penglai Demon Race envoys.
Shangguan Wanwan quickly went over and whispered to Liu Dongyue what had happened.
Liu Dongyue then understood what was going on.
It turned out that the Penglai Demon Race had come here to collect taxes and learned about his situation.
If it had been before, Liu Dongyue would have been scared to death, but now, Liu Dongyue was fearless.
“Ji Henglou, Ji Hengqiu, I didn’t expect it to be you two little brats.” Liu Dongyue said indifferently.
As soon as he finished speaking, the faces of the two Penglai Demon Race envoys changed.
They looked at Liu Dongyue incredulously, not knowing why Liu Dongyue knew their names.
Neither of them knew Liu Dongyue.
Others also looked at Liu Dongyue and the two envoys strangely, with puzzled expressions on their faces.
Did they know each other or not?
And he called them little brats?
“How do you know our names?” The two asked incredulously.
“Heh, knowing your names is quite normal, because I am also of the Penglai Demon Race.” Liu Dongyue glanced at the two of them. “Come inside with me. You two came here because of Ji Yunlang’s orders, right?”
Hearing Ji Yunlang’s name, the expressions of the two changed.
Little fellow?
Ji Yunlang is the Clan Leader of the Penglai Demon Race!
What’s with this person’s tone?
It was as if this person in front of them was a very familiar elder.
Seeing Liu Dongyue turn and walk into the house, the two exchanged glances, not daring to say anything more, and quickly followed.
This scene also dumbfounded everyone else.
What was going on here?
A moment ago, they were at loggerheads saying they didn’t know each other, but now they were behaving like obedient grandchildren?
“I told you to bring in some tea, are you all deaf!?”
At this moment, Liu Dongyue’s roar came from inside.
This really startled the people outside.
“Hurry up and get the Young Master some tea, what are you waiting for!”
The High-Level Personnel quickly urged.
Inside the room, Liu Dongyue was comfortably leaning back in his chair, looking at the two people below. His gaze gave the two of them a strong sense of oppression.
It even made the two of them feel a sense of familiarity.
