The Indomitable Master of Elixirs

“Demon aura?” Zhan Fei’s face stiffened. At Ji Fengyan’s prompting, he calmed his heart and took in the changes in the surroundings.

Terminators were extremely sensitive to demon aura and after Zhan Fei steadied his heart, he suddenly detected a strong demon energy in the air. In addition, the source of that aura was that very man standing beside Ji Fengyan!

“He is a demon?” Zhan Fei was shocked.

He finally understood why Situ Ba reacted the way he did on seeing that man.

It seemed…

Situ Ba had long perceived everything.

“That’s right. He is a demon, and a major one at that.” Ji Fengyan grinned at the green-faced Chang Pu.

“He was the commander of the Ping City demons. I have not forgotten about investigating the locations of the demons’ lair, so… I have ‘invited’ him to visit our camp.”

Zhan Fei looked extremely distressed at this.

He had heard rumors that Ji Fengyan had kidnapped the demons’ leader to divert their attention, so as to allow the Ping City citizens and Wolf Smoke Regiment time to escape.

But…

He never dreamed that Ji Fengyan would actually bring that demon back here?

Even more incomprehensible was the fact that Ji Fengyan had returned with only Liu Huo by her side. There were no traces of that demon at all. How did Ji Fengyan sneak that fellow into the camp?

“General Ji… you are capable,” Zhan Fei said with a fake smile.

It also shocked all the soldiers from the three armies. They couldn’t imagine how Ji Fengyan had managed to sneak in a demon and hid him at the camp for so many days with no one noticing!

“Thank you for your compliments.” Ji Fengyan beamed happily.

Zhan Fei nearly puked blood in frustration.

Zhan Fei clenched his jaws as he looked at Ji Fengyan. He suppressed his anger and turned towards Chang Pu. “Could this demon tell us where are the demons’ nests located?”

He still had a chance.

Chang Pu glared at Ji Fengyan and snorted. “Tell you the locations of the lairs? Dream on.”

He desperately wished to bite Ji Fengyan to death.

Chang Pu’s words relieved Zhan Fei. Although Ji Fengyan had captured a high-ranking demon, getting him to reveal the locations of the demons’ nests would be a problem.

As long as Chang Pu refused to divulge that information, there was nothing Ji Fengyan could do.

“General Ji, things are not looking good. This demon seems unwilling to tell us the whereabouts of the demons’ lair.” Traces of a smile danced across Zhan Fei’s face.

As selfish as demons were, this concerned the safety of the entire demon population. No one would dare to reveal that information for fear of punishment by the Demon King.

They would die either way, and it should be pointed out that the Demon King was way more brutal than any human being.

Chang Pu had no intention of telling Ji Fengyan any useful information, while Zhan Fei looked on in relish. Nevertheless, Ji Fengyan didn’t look surprised.

Instead, she grinned at the stone-faced Chang Pu.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell us.”

“Humph.” Chang Pu snorted.

Ji Fengyan continued. “I already know where are your nests, anyway. I brought you out just to add some ‘excitement’.”
