Chapter 1103

Was this bewitching woman not Zhu Cangyan's helper?

Or was this a show to make Chen Yu lower his guard against this woman?

No matter what, there was no reason for Chen Yu to agree to Zhu Lingyu's challenge.

Not only would there be no benefits, but it might even be a trap. Why should he fight?

"I refuse."

Chen Yu said decisively.

"Why? You've fought with my useless brother twice, but you're not willing to fight with me. Could it be … "

Zhu Lingyu asked.

Zhu Cangyan's face stiffened and his lips twitched.

Even though Zhu Cangyan had experienced this before, he was still unable to get used to being called trash and incompetent. Thus, he was still enraged.

However, he couldn't control Zhu Lingyu's mouth.

Zhu Cangyan wasn't afraid of him at all. If they really fought, he wouldn't be his match.

Zhu Cangyan felt that he was a little sullen as the leader.

In reality, there was only him and Chen Yu on this mission. However, Zhu Lingyu suddenly interfered and he couldn't chase her away.

Elder Wu seemed to be worried about Zhu Cangyan and didn't trust him, so he agreed to let Zhu Lingyu go.

"… Could it be that you're more interested in handsome men than beautiful women?"

Zhu Lingyu finished speaking.

His words shocked Chen Yulei greatly. Zhu Cangyan, who was standing beside him, also staggered and his face darkened.

"Zhu Lingyu, shut up. Don't spout nonsense. The mission is more important. Let's set off immediately."

Zhu Cangyan couldn't help but scold her as he walked out of the hall.

Chen Yu also believed that this woman might not be on Zhu Cangyan's side.

The three of them left the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest through the teleportation array.

This was Chen Yu's first time leaving the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest.

Chen Yu was in a good state. No matter what Zhu Cangyan did, he would deal with it. At the same time, he was interested in the demonic beasts who came for the first time and enjoyed the scenery along the way.

"Chen Yu, fight with me!"

A loud shout suddenly sounded.

Not long after Zhu Lingyu left the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest, he issued another challenge to Chen Yu.

"I'm the top prodigy of the Vermillion Bird Sacred Clan. I'm not even a hundred years old and I'm already in the top 35 of the Vermillion Bird Leaderboard. Are you afraid?"

Zhu Lingyu tried to provoke him.

The Vermilion Bird Sky Nest's Vermilion Bird Ranking was similar to the Celestial Sect's Sky Martial Ranking.

"Not fighting."

Chen Yu simply refused.

Along the way, there was a gap between Chen Yu and Zhu Cangyan. The two of them barely spoke. Zhu Lingyu was the talkative one, which made the group less awkward.

However, Chen Yu and Zhu Cangyan would rather Zhu Lingyu didn't exist.

Chen Yu grew impatient with Zhu Lingyu. Zhu Cangyan, on the other hand, hoped that Zhu Lingyu would stop humiliating him.

"Leader, this woman has been harassing me. Can you control her?"

Chen Yu looked at Zhu Cangyan.

Zhu Cangyan felt a little helpless. As the leader, he should handle this matter well.

"Zhu Lingyu, can you calm down? Chen Yu doesn't want to fight with you. Why must you make things difficult for him?"

Zhu Cangyan helped Chen Yu unwillingly.

"Zhu Cangyan, don't get too close to me. I'm afraid I'll be infected by your incompetence."

Zhu Lingyu said with a look of disdain. "I joined this mission to witness the strength of the human race's Heaven's Chosen. It has nothing to do with you. Don't get in my way."

She was extremely overbearing and looked more like a leader.

On the other hand, Zhu Cangyan was so angry that his body was trembling. He couldn't say a single word.

The usually arrogant Zhu Cangyan was suppressed by Zhu Lingyu. Maybe it was because he had been bullied by Zhu Lingyu since he was young. It left a shadow in his heart and he was used to it.

"Seems like this Zhu Lingyu isn't the helper Zhu Cangyan found. Why did he bring this woman along?"

Chen Yu observed from the side.

He kept his guard up. He was unfamiliar with this place and he didn't want to make any mistakes.

Moreover, when he saw Zhu Lingyu scolding Zhu Cangyan, he felt much better.

"Chen Yu, compete with me."

"Leader, please control her."

...

Zhu Cangyan spent the entire journey in torment.

He suddenly felt a little regretful and wondered if he had done something wrong.

After he was defeated by Chen Yu, his grandfather grounded him for half a year and asked Elder Wu to give Zhu Cangyan a mission to train himself.

However, Zhu Cangyan was unwilling and wanted to use this opportunity to suppress Chen Yu.

Under his repeated requests, Elder Wu finally agreed and arranged for Chen Yu to participate in the mission.

As the leader, he could order Chen Yu around and scold Chen Yu to regain some of his pride. That was his only motive.

This was originally a perfect mission, but Zhu Lingyu's interference made the journey feel like a nightmare.

The three of them finally arrived at their destination amidst the torment.

"The Heavenly Spirit Crane race is up ahead."

Chen Yu scanned with his Spiritual Sense.

This mission was in the southern part of the Fire Spirit State, where there were two major demon clans, the Phoenix-Head Parrot race and the Heavenly Spirit Crane race.

According to the intelligence, these two demon clans were similar to the five major clans that Chen Yu had stayed with in the human race. Their strength should be equivalent to the strongest of the five major clans, the Xu family.

These two demon clans did not have a Mysterious Nether realm expert, but if they used their full strength, they would have the power to fight against a Mysterious Nether realm expert.

Not long ago, the two clans had a conflict that gradually intensified.

The Heavenly Spirit Crane race lost a few Star Condensation elders and was weaker than the enemy, so they complained to the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest, saying that the Phoenix-Head Parrot race did not abide by the rules and repeatedly bullied the Heavenly Spirit Crane race. They might even have defected to the foreign races.

The Heavenly Spirit Crane race hoped to use the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest's power to eradicate the Phoenix-Head Parrot race and promised to increase the tribute by 85%.

However, the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest did not care about this bit of salary. They hoped that the two major clans would exist and keep each other in check.

When Zhu Cangyan's group arrived outside the Heavenly Spirit Crane race's territory.

Hundreds of people flew out of the huge palace and lined up neatly.

A few Star Condensation Monarchs with powerful auras walked out from the group.

Their leader was a tall old man with white hair and a pair of spirited eyes. He bowed slightly and said, "I am the clan leader of the Heavenly Spirit Crane Tribe, He Shan. I welcome the three Vermilion Bird Sky Nest messengers."

Then, the other upper echelons of the Heavenly Spirit Crane race greeted them respectfully.

"Everyone, it has been a long journey. Please come in. My race will prepare a banquet to welcome the three of you."

The leader, He San, revealed a peaceful smile. His murky eyes sized up the three of them and showed a trace of doubt. Who was the leader? Why was there a human?

"There's no need for that."

Zhu Cangyan said casually, mainly to show his identity as the leader.

"The three of you have come to support the Heavenly Spirit Crane race. Please adjust your state first, or it will be hard for you to work."

He San saw that Zhu Cangyan was the leader and continued to invite him.

"The leader is right."

Zhu Cangyan smiled and agreed.

The journey was really torturous. He needed to rest and recuperate.

Chen Yu did not want to care about anything. He just had to be wary of Zhu Cangyan. Zhu Lingyu only wanted to fight with Chen Yu.

The three entered the Heavenly Spirit Crane race's territory. Along the way, many clansmen looked at them secretly and discussed. Their eyes were full of respect and admiration.

Come to think of it, if Chen Yu was in the Yang Family and a Celestial Sect powerhouse suddenly came, he would probably be like this too.

Unknowingly, he had already made such a high achievement in the main world.

In a luxurious hall, musicians played and dancers danced. There were also people serving delicacies, wine and delicacies.

These dishes were naturally cooked with the best ingredients. Not only were they delicious, but they were also beneficial to cultivators.

"I wonder what plans the emissary has for this trip?"

The leader, He San, sat beside Zhu Cangyan and asked softly.

This time, the Heavenly Spirit Crane race asked the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest for help, hoping to eradicate the Phoenix Head Parrot race. But what the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest thought was the most important.

"Tell me about the conflict between your two races first."

Zhu Cangyan said indifferently.

"It's like this …"

He San recounted everything.

The Heavenly Spirit Crane race and the Phoenix-Head Parrot race had a long grudge.

A few days ago, the Phoenix-Head Parrot race suddenly barged into the mine of the Heavenly Spirit Crane race and killed dozens of slaves, stealing a batch of the most precious ores.

When the Heavenly Spirit Crane race discovered this, they immediately sent an elder to question them and seek compensation.

Unexpectedly, the elder of the Heavenly Spirit Crane race never returned after entering the Phoenix-Head Parrot race!

Following that, two small-scale battles broke out between the two clans. The Heavenly Spirit Crane race fell into a disadvantageous position and suffered more casualties.

"I suspect that the Phoenix-Head Parrot race might have colluded with the enemy of a foreign race."

After explaining the matter, He San voiced his guess.

The Heavenly Spirit Crane race wanted to get rid of the Phoenix-Head Parrot race. Their words could not be completely trusted.

"This matter is a little complicated. I'll observe for a while more."

Zhu Cangyan was tired from the journey and was in no hurry to settle the matter. He wanted to enjoy himself first.

At midnight, the banquet ended.

The Heavenly Spirit Crane race arranged accommodation for Zhu Cangyan and the others.

"Clan leader, what do you think the envoy's intentions are?"

An upper echelon asked.

"I'm not sure."

He San's expression darkened.

Although they were the ones who sought help from the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest, what was the Sky Nest thinking?

Were they really here to help the Heavenly Spirit Crane race or were they supporting the Phoenix-Head Parrot race because they thought that the fittest would prevail?

Chen Yu did not think much after returning to his residence.

The mission this time round had nothing to do with him. He could just leave it to the leader, Zhu Cangyan, to handle.

"Chen Yu, why won't you fight me?"

Zhu Lingyu's voice suddenly sounded from outside the house, shocking Chen Yu. The other party was truly persistent.

In reality, Chen Yu had long thought of having a match with Zhu Lingyu and ending things there.

However, Zhu Lingyu's goal was only to have a match with him and would leave after that. He might as well leave this woman here to annoy Zhu Cangyan and disrupt the other party's plans.

"Chen Yu, someone seemed to be watching you just now."

Zhu Lingyu said.

Chen Yu had completely ignored the possibility that this woman was just trying to lure him out of the room.

"Strange, why would the Heavenly Spirit Crane race keep an eye on Chen Yu?"

Zhu Lingyu left with doubts.

She was not worried that the Heavenly Spirit Crane race would deal with Chen Yu. Putting aside the fact that they did not have the guts, Chen Yu's strength was not that easy to deal with.

Two black figures appeared in the flowers in the distance.

"That was close, we were almost discovered."

"What should we do? These three disciples of the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest might affect the young master's plans? "

The two of them communicated via voice transmission.

"Hmph, even if they are disciples of the Vermilion Bird Sky Nest, only death awaits them if they block the young master's path."

The two black figures merged into the darkness and disappeared.
