Gods: Starting with the Goblins - Chapter 737

.However, Elder Tianji and his companions behaved extremely calmly, with innocence and fear in their eyes, as if they were really frightened by this sudden storm.

Finally, the leading soldier snorted coldly, with a hint of unwillingness and helplessness in his voice: “Okay, I’ll let you go for now. But if you dare to do anything evil again, don’t blame us.” You’re welcome! We demons are not easy to mess with. Our patience and tolerance have limits,” he said, waving his hands and signaling the soldiers to retreat, “Get out of this place quickly and go back to where you should go. Go somewhere! Don’t let me see you hanging around here again!”

Elder Tianji and his companions breathed a sigh of relief. They seemed to hear the sound of nature, and the huge rock hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground. They nodded and agreed in a hurry, with grateful smiles on their faces: “Thank you, sir, thank you for your kindness! Let’s leave now, leave now!”

With that said, they hurriedly left the inn, their steps brisk and hurried, as if they were afraid that if they delayed for another second, they would be caught by the demon soldiers. On the way out, they secretly felt lucky and sighed that they were extremely lucky to be able to save the day this time.

“Phew, it really scared me to death!” One of the companions patted his chest and said with lingering fear, “I thought we were really going to fall here this time!”

“Yes, thanks to Elder Tianji’s clever response, we were able to escape smoothly.” Another companion agreed, his eyes full of admiration for Elder Tianji.

Elder Tianji just smiled slightly. He knew that his escape this time was not entirely due to his own wit, but more to luck and the timely appearance of the demon noble. He reminded his companions: “Don’t be too happy too early. Our next journey will be more difficult. The demon soldiers are only a temporary threat, and the real challenge is yet to come. We must be more careful to reach Changzhou Mansion safely.” “

Upon hearing this, the companions nodded in agreement. They knew that Elder Tianji was right. The road ahead is full of unknowns and dangers, and they must remain vigilant at all times to ensure their safety. So, they quickened their pace and disappeared into the vast night. Inside the inn, the demon soldiers continued their patrols and searches, as if nothing had happened.

In a corner of the inn, at an old wooden table, Elder Tianji and several companions sat together. There were several bottles of unopened wine and a few plates of simple side dishes on the table, but the atmosphere seemed extremely depressing. The dim yellow oil lamp swayed with a faint light, reflecting on the frowning brows of everyone, as if even the air was frozen.

One of the companions, named Aqiang, is an optimistic and cheerful young man who tried to break the dull atmosphere. He gently touched Elder Tianji’s arm, with a hint of luck and expectation in his eyes, and whispered: “Sir, please let us go back later. We still want to drink up all the wine we ordered. Otherwise, it would be a waste! This wine cost us a lot of money, and I heard it tastes pretty good. Wouldn’t it be a pity if we just left like this?”

Before Aqiang could finish his words, he was interrupted by a cold and arrogant voice: “That’s enough! What kind of place do you think this is? Is it a place where you mixed-races can run wild as you please? What qualifications do you have in front of us?” Negotiation? We are all demon nobles with pure noble blood, how can we associate with you lowly hybrids? “

The speaker was a demon youth wearing gorgeous clothes and arrogant eyes. He was wearing a dark purple robe, embroidered with complicated demon totems, and hung a long sword inlaid with gems on his waist, looking majestic. His face was handsome, but his eyes revealed an unconcealable arrogance and contempt. Several companions around him also echoed, their faces full of disdain and ridicule.

“Even if you don’t look at your status, how dare you be equal to our nobles?” A burly demon soldier with a sinewy face shouted loudly. The spear in his hand hit the ground hard, as if to demonstrate .

“Hmph, you half-breeds are not even worthy of carrying our shoes!” Another demon youth also snorted coldly, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, his eyes filled with contempt for Elder Tianji and his group.

Elder Tianji frowned when he heard this. A trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He knew very well that in this world ruled by demons, mixed races would always suffer all kinds of discrimination and oppression. Although they have demon blood, they are ostracized because they are not pure enough. However, Elder Tianji did not intend to argue with these arrogant demon nobles. He had his own plans and goals, and did not want to ruin the overall situation because of his impulse.

So, he smiled slightly and said in a calm tone: “My lords, we don’t mean to offend. We are just passing by here and want to take a break and taste the wine at this inn. Since your lords don’t like us here, then we Leave now and don’t disturb everyone’s enjoyment.”

With that said, Elder Tianji stood up, winked at his companions, and motioned for them to leave with him. Although Aqiang was a little reluctant, seeing the look in Elder Tianji’s eyes, he had no choice but to follow him silently. They packed up the things on the table and turned to leave.

However, at this moment, the arrogant demon youth suddenly stopped them: “Wait! You just left like this? Do you think we demon nobles will let you go so easily?”

Elder Tianji’s heart tightened. He turned around and looked at the demon youth firmly: “Sir, we didn’t do anything wrong, why don’t you let us go? We just want to have a quiet night, don’t we? Is this wrong?”

The demon youth sneered: “Humph, you are right? Then why don’t you dare to face your identity? Why don’t you dare to admit that you are a mixed race? In our world of demons, only pure blood is a symbol of nobility. You half-breeds are only worthy of being our slaves and servants!”

Upon hearing this, Elder Tianji felt a surge of anger in his heart. He knew that this kind of racial discrimination and oppression was a common phenomenon in demon society, but he could not tolerate such insults and provocations. He took a deep breath and tried to keep his voice calm: “Sir, blood does not determine a person’s value and dignity. Although we have a mixed-race identity, we also have our own pride and dignity. We will not ask anyone People will not accept any unfair treatment even if they bow their heads.”

When the demon youth heard this, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes. He seemed not to have expected that Elder Tianji would refute him so firmly. However, he quickly returned to his arrogant demeanor: “Hmph, it’s useless no matter how nice you say it. In our world of demons, blood is everything. You hybrids will never stand up!”

Elder Tianji said nothing. He took a deep look at the demon youth, then turned around and left the inn with his companions. Their figures drifted away in the night, but their hearts were full of firmness and faith. They know that no matter how many difficulties and challenges they encounter, they will never give up their dignity and pursuits. And this dispute with the demon nobles was just an episode in their long journey.

Elder Tianji’s heart sank, as if a huge boulder was pressing on his chest, making him almost breathless. He knew that in this demon clan’s territory, hybrids like them would always be discriminated against and ostracized to varying degrees. Every inch of land and every breath of air here is full of prejudice and hostility towards mixed races. However, Elder Tianji knew that this was not the time to act impulsively. He had to stay calm and find the most appropriate response strategy.

He took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound calm and respectful: “My lords, we mean no offense. We are just passing by and want to take a rest here. We have not done anything untoward, and we will never do anything wrong. It will cause trouble for all of you. Please be kind and let us go.”

However, before Elder Tianji could finish his words, he was interrupted by a colder and tougher voice. This time it was a demon soldier who seemed to be the leader. He was tall and bulging with muscles, like a walking mountain. His expression was serious, his eyes showed unquestionable majesty, and his tone was as cold as the frost in the cold winter: “That’s enough. If it were normal times, I could turn a blind eye and let you little characters… Here we are struggling to survive, but the situation is different now, the city lord’s palace is here. A Lord Dragon, his strength is extraordinary and he is the best among our demon clan. His arrival means that our city will usher in stricter governance. At this moment, we must not let anything go. We should be lax and must not allow any factors that may cause trouble to exist.”

When the leading demon soldier said this, he paused, and his eyes swept over Elder Tianji and his group like knives, as if he wanted to analyze their souls: “You all come with me, don’t cause trouble here. No. Otherwise, if you anger Lord Long, the consequences will be disastrous. Not even me, even the Lord of the City can protect you.”

When Elder Tianji heard this, he secretly complained in his heart. He knew that the arrival of Lord Long had indeed brought great changes to their actions. Originally, they only planned to stop at this inn, replenish some supplies, and then continue their journey. But now it seems that this plan may be ruined.

However, Elder Tianji did not want to give in so easily. He took a deep breath again and tried to fight for a chance of survival: “Sir, we are really just passing by and don’t have any malicious intent. We are willing to cooperate with your inspection and prove our innocence. Please give us a chance to prove our innocence. innocent.”

The leading demon soldier frowned slightly when he heard this, as if he was weighing Elder Tianji’s words. After a moment, he sneered: “Humph, prove your innocence? Do you think this is child’s play? However, since you are so insistent, then I will give you a chance. But you have to remember that this opportunity only comes once. If you two If you don’t satisfy me, you’ll have to bear the consequences!”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and motioned for his soldiers to surround Elder Tianji and his party. Then, he began to conduct a strict interrogation and body search on Elder Tianji and his party. Every detail was not spared and every corner was carefully searched. Elder Tianji and his companions could only endure this humiliation and injustice silently, praying secretly in their hearts that they could get through this situation safely.

When Elder Tianji heard this, he couldn’t help but cry secretly in his heart, as if there were ten thousand ants biting his heart. He knew that the arrival of Lord Long was like a sudden storm, completely involving their carefully planned plan into chaos. Originally, they planned to stop at this relatively remote inn to replenish some necessary supplies before continuing their secret and dangerous journey. But now, with the appearance of Master Long, the City Lord’s Mansion will undoubtedly become the focus of the entire demon territory, and any disturbance may attract the attention of that strong man. Once they enter the City Lord’s Mansion, their identity and whereabouts may no longer be hidden. Like ice cubes exposed to the scorching sun, they are in danger of melting at any time.

Elder Tianji’s brows were furrowed, and his eyes flashed with complicated emotions. He knew very well that every decision made at this moment might be related to the life and death of all of them. However, at this critical moment, an unexpected and shocking situation suddenly occurred, breaking the original tense confrontation.

The atmosphere that was originally so tense that it was almost water-shattering suddenly surged with an inexplicable fluctuation, as if every molecule in the air was trembling at this moment. Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared in front of everyone as quietly as a ghost, without causing a trace of wind or disturbing a single leaf. This person is none other than Luo Dan, an elder who enjoys a high reputation among the demon clan and whose strength is unfathomable. His appearance was like a sudden breeze, instantly blowing away the depression and tension around him, making the originally tense atmosphere become more subtle.

Elder Luodan’s face was calm and profound, as if he could see into the abyss of the human heart. His eyes swept over everyone one by one, and finally landed on Elder Tianji. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a meaningful smile: “Tianji, long time no see. It seems that you have encountered a lot of trouble again.”

When Elder Tianji heard this, he felt excited. He knew that Elder Luo Dan’s appearance undoubtedly brought them a slight turn of events. He hurriedly took a few steps forward and bowed respectfully: “Elder Luodan, you came just in time. We have indeed encountered some troubles, and we hope you can help.”

Elder Luo Dan waved his hand gently, signaling to Elder Tianji that there was no need to be polite: “You’re welcome. Now that I’m here, I won’t stand idly by. However, the trouble you have gotten into this time is not small. That Master Long is not What a good thing.” (End of this chapter)
