The wolf demon lay on the ground, staring at the blue bird demon with disbelief on his face.
"You guessed right, I've already pledged allegiance to the Bear King!"
"That blue bird demon said coldly."
"I...I've treated you well, why...why did you do this?"
The wolf demon was utterly puzzled.
“You have indeed been good to me, but what the Bear King can give me, you cannot.”
The blue bird demon sneered.
"Why waste words with him? Kill him for me!"
The brown bear demon beside him roared in a deep, gruff voice.
"Yes, King Bear!"
The blue bird demon bowed to the brown bear demon.
Then his gaze fell on the wolf demon, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes, and he said coldly, "Wolf King, there's a saying among humans: people strive for higher positions. Don't blame me for betraying you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his sword down at the wolf demon on the ground.
The sword light, like a crescent moon, pierced through the void and swept towards the wolf demon.
The wolf demon sighed, closed its eyes, neither dodging nor avoiding, letting the sword light strike.
Suddenly, he heard a scream, but he seemed to have been unharmed.
He immediately opened his eyes and saw that the blue bird demon had been torn to pieces.
Meanwhile, the brown bear demon beside him stared wide-eyed in one direction, its eyes filled with astonishment.
He followed the brown bear demon's gaze and saw a group of people flying over in the distance.
These people were Li Yao and his group.
"Originally, I did not want to interfere in the struggles of your demon realm."
"However, I despise traitors who betray their own people the most."
Li Yao said calmly.
"How dare you kill my subordinate! You're courting death!"
The brown bear demon flew into a rage, brandishing a giant axe and slashing at Li Yao.
"I think you're the one who's looking for death!"
Li Yao said coldly.
Before he finished speaking, he swiftly condensed a ball of Samadhi Heavenly Fire in his right hand and gently pushed it out.
The ball of Samadhi Heavenly Fire struck the brown bear demon with lightning speed.
Before the brown bear demon could react, his entire body burst into flames.
The raging flames instantly transformed into a sea of fire.
The brown bear demon in the sea of fire let out a series of mournful howls and ran around in all directions.
Soon, he turned to ashes, his soul scattered!
Upon seeing their leader's horrific death, the demon soldiers and generals brought by the brown bear demon scattered like birds and beasts, all fleeing in an instant.
"Who...who are you? How did you get here? Why did you save me?"
The wolf demon scanned the newcomers, finally fixing its gaze on Li Yao, its mind filled with many questions.
"Who we are is not important. We are just passing through your area. As for why we need you... I already said that I hate traitors who betray their own people the most!"
Li Yao said calmly.
Then, he turned his gaze to the wolf demon's legs, which were bleeding black blood, and said, "Your legs are badly injured."
"Qingyu's sword is coated with a deadly poison!"
The wolf demon's face turned deathly pale.
The dark aura between his eyebrows showed that he was indeed poisoned.
"Eating this Nine-Turn Spirit Pill can neutralize all poisons!"
Li Yao flipped his right hand, took out a pill from his ring, and tossed it to the wolf demon.
The wolf demon took the pill, hesitated for a moment, and then immediately swallowed it.
Soon, the wounds on his legs healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Moreover, he suddenly vomited a mouthful of foul-smelling black blood, and his complexion gradually returned to a rosy hue.
He can even stand up now.
"This elixir is indeed remarkably effective!"
The wolf demon was utterly astonished.
"Alright, I've saved you. Now it's your turn to repay my kindness."
Li Yao said calmly.
"Repaying a debt of gratitude?"
The wolf demon was slightly taken aback.
This was the first time he had ever encountered someone who proactively offered to repay a debt of gratitude.
However, he also knew that the other party's request was not excessive, after all, the other party had saved him twice.
He smiled slightly and said, "Of course, please feel free to ask me anything, my benefactor."
Do you know where the Well of Gods and Demons is located?
Li Yao asked directly.
"The Well of Gods and Demons?"
The wolf demon was taken aback again, and asked in confusion, "You want to go to the Well of Gods and Demons?"
"good!"
Li Yao nodded and said, "I think you should know the location of the Well of Gods and Demons."
"I advise you to give up this idea!"
The wolf demon earnestly advised.
"Why?"
Li Yao asked.
"The Well of Gods and Demons is full of traps and dangers, and it also contains a lot of miasma."
"Even we demons dare not approach easily."
"If we demons accidentally enter the Well of Gods and Demons, even if we don't die, we will become half-demon, half-monster monsters, and our lives will be worse than death."
"Moreover, it's heavily guarded by the Demon Lord Chonglou. If you go in, you might not come back alive!"
The wolf demon explained very sincerely.
"I know all of that!"
Li Yao smiled faintly.
"So, you absolutely have to go?"
"The wolf demon asked."
"good!"
Li Yao nodded.
The wolf demon hesitated for a moment, then said helplessly, "Alright, come with me."
After giving instructions to his men, he led Li Yao and his group to the Well of Gods and Demons.
On the way, he asked curiously, "If I may ask, the entrance to Inner Shu Mountain is heavily guarded by the Shu Mountain Sect, and there is also a powerful barrier. Moreover, the Shu Mountain Sect has always strictly forbidden its disciples from entering Inner Shu Mountain. How did you get in?"
"Hehe, I have to say you're really ignorant. Don't you know there's more than one entrance to Li Shu Mountain!"
"The Heavenly Ghost Emperor said from the side."
"..."
The wolf demon was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be... that you entered Lishu Mountain from the bottom of the Demon Locking Tower?"
Chapter 525 The Well of Gods and Demons
The wolf demon has lived in the inner Shu Mountain for many years, so it naturally knows that there is an entrance at the bottom of the Shu Mountain Demon Locking Tower that leads to the inner Shu Mountain.
However, this entrance and exit is protected by a very powerful barrier.
Moreover, many years ago, in order to prevent the monsters imprisoned in the Demon Locking Tower from escaping into the inner Shu Mountain, the Shu Mountain Sect rebuilt the lowest level of the Demon Locking Tower.
The rebuilt Demon Locking Tower now features a Demon Transformation Pool and a Seven-Star Dragon Pillar at its base.
Therefore, it is impossible for the monsters in the tower to enter Lishu Mountain from the entrance at the bottom.
However, the wolf demon discovered that among Li Yao's group, apart from Li Yao and Xiao Bai, whom he couldn't tell were human or demon, he could tell that the other two were ghosts.
The demon-transforming water in the Demon Transformation Pool is also effective against the ghost race.
How did these two demons manage to bypass the Demon Transformation Pool and enter Li Shu Mountain?
The wolf demon voiced the question that had been lingering in his mind.
"What are you doing, beating around the bush! Our Young Master Li has absorbed all the demon-transforming water in the Demon Transformation Pool!"
The words of the Heavenly Ghost King greatly surprised the wolf demon.
To drain the demon-transforming water—that's an astonishing method!
