Lookingatthehumanteenagerinfrontofhim,theBlackFlyingLizardbecamemoreandmorestrange.

"TheYoungMasterwascertainlyambushedandhurtbytheGoldenAncientScorpionafewdaysago."Ontheground,theBlackYaBeastremindedtheBlackFlyingLizard.

"WhoamI?Youdon’thavethequalificationstoknow.Getoutofhereifyouknowwhat’sgoodforyou!"
SuTianQueheldhisheadhigh,withhischestoutandapairofmeatywings,exudingasenseofmight.
ThoughthelookonSuTianQue’sfacenowwasrathercomical,makingoneentirelyoverlookthemomentumhehad.
"Nomatterwhoyouare,ifyoumixwithhumans,thatmakesyouanenemy!"
TheBlackFlyingLizardlookeddownatSuTianQue,asifitcouldsenseanunusualaromaemanatingfromSuTianQuethatmadeitapprehensive.Itdidn’timmediatelytakeaction.

SuYiindicatedtoSuTianQuenottointerfereanymore,ortheconsequenceswillbeunimaginableiftheBlackFlyingLizardtakesaction.
"HowarewesupposedtoknowthethoughtsoftheDemonEmperor?Wejustfolloworders!"saidtheBlackFlyingLizard.
TheBlackYaBeasthesitatedforamomentandsaidtoSuYifromafar,"Humans,theDemonEmperorhasorderedthattheremaybehumansnearby,soIamheretobringallofyouback."
SuYifrowned.Thisplacewasveryhidden,andhadbeenmanagedandarrangedbytheancestorsoftheAncientSpiritVillage,theMightyBearTribe,andtheHuntingTigerTribe,butithadnotbeendiscoveredbythedemonbeasts.
Aftereveryonearrivedthistime,theywerefoundsoquicklybythedemonbeasts.
Althoughtheremaybehundredsofpeoplecoming,whichmayattracttheattentionoftheDemonBeasts,itwastoofast.Everyoneenteredcautiouslybefore.
Butnowit’sclear,theDemonEmperorhadissuedanordertosearchforhumans,nowondertheywerediscovered.
"Human,nomatterwhatyourrelationshipwithLordChiZuis,youhavetocomewithustodayandotherwiseIwon’tbepolite!"
TheBlackFlyingLizardwasstaringatSuYi,althoughitsexpressionwasfierce,itwasmuchmorepolitetowardsSuYi.
SuTianQuewasnotsatisfiedandwasabouttosaysomething.
SuYiwavedhishandtostopSuTianQueandlookedattheBlackFlyingLizard,saying,"WhatdoyousayifIgobackwithyoualonetomeettheDemonEmperor?"
"…"
UponhearingSuYi’swords,everyonewashorrified;tohaveonepersongomeetthedemonemperor,wasn’tthatariskofnevercomingback?
TheBlackFlyingLizardandtheBlackYaBeastwerealsoquiteunexpected,staringatSuYiinbewilderment.
"Youalsodon’tknowwhytheDemonEmperorislookingforus.Ifwefight,itwillbeadrawatbest,andIguaranteeyouwon’tgainanyadvantage!"
SuYiputonanactofbeingcalm,saying"IamindeedafriendofyouryoungmasterChiZu.Takemebacksothatwedon’tbothsufferaloss.Ifanythinghappens,theDemonEmperorwillnotblameyou;Iwilltakefullresponsibility!"
"This…!"
TheBlackFlyingLizardraiseditseyebrows,feelinganinvisibleauthorityfromtheyoungmanthatmadeituneasy.

"That’snotbadeither,wecangobackandclarifyhisrelationshipwithLordChiZu."
TheBlackYaBeastopeneditsmouth,undoubtedlythebestresult.Itwaswaryoftheyoungmaninfrontofit.
"Alright,itwon’tdelayusfortoolong.Butifyoufollowusback,noonecanleave,orelsetherewillbenomercy!"
TheBlackFlyingLizardnodded,butfearedthatthiswasahumantrick,andthenorderedtheBlackYaBeastandthedemonbeastsitbroughttokeepblockingtheexit,allowingnoonetoleave.
"OK!"
TheBlackYaBeastnoddedinagreement,becauseitdidn’twanttoprovokethehumanteen.Itwasn’tsurewhattheDemonEmperor’sattitudewouldbeifittooktheteenback;stayinghere,itwouldhavenothingtodowiththesituation,naturallyitwouldn’tberesponsibletoanythingthatmighthappen.
"BrotherSuYi,doyoureallywanttogotherealone?"
ShangguanYan,XiongZhan,HuChiandotherslookedatSuYi,veryworried,theirfacesweregravelytense.SuYiwasgoingtogoseetheDemonEmperoraloneandhisfatewasuncertain,theyfeareditwouldbemorebadthangood!
"It’sfine,Ihavemyownplans,"SuYisaidwithafaintsmile,pretendingtobecalm.
Inhisheart,SuYiwasalsoverynervous,buttherewasnowayatthismoment.Ifthestalematecontinued,theBlackFlyingLizardwouldreallytakeaction,andthedisciplesoftheDivineDemonicSectwouldbeunabletowithstandit;eventhethreeelderswouldbeunabletostopit.

SuYialsowantedtoknowwhytheDemonEmperorwaslookingforthem,guessingthathehadofferedsomehelptoChiZu.FromChiZu’sattitude,ifhecouldseeChiZuandgethishelp,itwouldbebetterthanthecurrentsituation.
"Elders,mayIhaveaword?"
Subsequently,SuYigesturedtothethreeeldersandtheymovedaside.Loweringhisvoice,hespokeinawhisper,"IfIhaven’treturnedafteralongtime…then…"
