In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

“Ah? You don’t even want to be the city lord anymore?” The Fire Dragon Boy was stunned.

“I must go with Shi Xiao to the holy land of the Stone Demon Clan, but Huanyue City has my soul tablet. If I leave Wuyue Mountain City too far without a transfer order, it will be considered as deserting my post, which will be very troublesome.

Therefore, I must give up this position of city lord. Rather than giving it to others, I would rather leave it to you as a place to stay. It will also be more convenient for me to find you in the future."

After hearing what Lu Yuan said, Lu Luo and the others also understood the truth and nodded. After all, with their cultivation level, following Lu Yuan would make it difficult to protect them, at best, and at worst, a burden.

Lu Yuan actually had another consideration behind this arrangement. As long as the Fire Dragon Boy and his men could occupy Wuyue Mountain City, they would certainly participate in the invasion of the spirit world a thousand years later. By then, his group would be able to enter the spirit world smoothly.

According to calculations, when the ascension channel collapsed, Tiezi and the others should have entered the spiritual world. If nothing unexpected happened, they would most likely go to Tianling City to join Commander Ying under the command of the Spirit Emperor.

After all, Han Li's cultivation had not recovered at that time, and no one knew where he was hiding.

Next, Shi Xiao spent more than two months building relationships and paid a lot of price, and finally arranged everything.

Then, just like he did back then, Lu Yuan smoothly handed over Wuyue Mountain City to the Fire Dragon Boy and took back his soul tablet that he had left in Huanyue City.

......

Shi Xiao's clan's land is tens of millions of miles away from Liangjie Mountain. Although the distance is far, if one uses the super teleportation array in the main city of Huanyue, one can reach the big city near the Stone Demon Clan in an instant, and the rest of the journey will only take a few days.

However, Lu Yuan did not dare to go to the main cities where the demons were stationed, and the cost of borrowing the super teleportation array was quite high, and Shi Xiao had already run around for Lu Yuan, so the two of them had gone through a lot of twists and turns and finally arrived at the Stone Demon Mountains after more than three months.

"This is the Stone Demon Mountain Range!" From high in the sky, Lu Yuan looked around and muttered.

A hundred miles away, within a few hundred feet of the ground, everything was submerged in a sea of ​​fog formed by a layer of gray-white air. And above the ground for hundreds of feet, only the upper half of two peaks about a thousand feet high were exposed, and the rest was mostly sunken in the gray-white air.

The sea of ​​fog is extremely vast. Looking up, you can't see the end of it at all. It seems as if it has merged into the distant sky.

"Brother Yuan, the entrance is under those two peaks." Shi Xiao suddenly raised his hand and pointed towards the two peaks in the sea of ​​fog in the distance.

When Lu Yuan and Shi Xiao arrived in the sky not far from the two mountains, Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, his pupils flashed with golden light, and he displayed the golden divine pupils that had not been used for a long time.

Everything within the thousand-foot-wide sea of ​​fog immediately appeared before Lu Yuan's eyes. The mountain below the two peaks seemed like a barren mountain, with not even a single flying insect or animal to be seen.

"Brother Shi, is this your clan's land?" Lu Yuan stopped with a puzzled look on his face and looked at Shi Xiao beside him.

"Brother Yuan, do you think this place is a little different?" Shi Xiao looked as if he had expected this and kept the question in suspense.

When Lu Yuan heard Shi Xiao's question, he immediately understood that there must be something mysterious about the two peaks. If Shi Xiao had bad intentions, he might suffer a great loss if he went in rashly. With a thought in his mind, he could not help but secretly scan upwards with his divine sense.

But as soon as the divine consciousness touched the mountain, it was repelled by an astonishing force.

And at this moment, an angry shout resounded in all directions.

"How dare you! Who dares to spy on my Stone Demon Clan's territory!"

Along with this angry roar, the gray-white fog sea that was originally slowly wriggling below seemed to boil and began to spread towards Lu Yuan and the others.

When Lu Yuan saw the green wings appearing behind him, he tried to stay away.

"Brother Yuan, don't panic. Don't act rashly at this time. If you anger the people on duty in my clan and cause misunderstandings, it will be troublesome.

If you have any questions, just ask me, why are you investigating secretly?" At this time, Shi Xiao turned around and complained to Lu Yuan.

"Didn't I just ask you, but you didn't answer me, so I can only look for it myself." Lu Yuan directly threw the blame back.

"You? Forget it, Brother Yuan, don't talk casually later. I will handle everything." Shi Xiao was choked by Lu Yuan's words, and then solemnly warned.

Lu Yuan nodded in agreement, because from the angry shouting just now, he couldn't tell where it came from, nor did he see any figure.

In this case, it means that the person who spoke is either more powerful than himself, or he borrowed some treasure to cover his tracks. But no matter which one it is, it is enough to make Lu Yuan feel apprehensive, and naturally he will not look for trouble again.

After stabilizing Lu Yuan, Shi Xiao looked at the two mountains and sighed helplessly, and his tone changed.

"Brother Shi Heng, it's me, Shi Xiao. I've only been away from the clan for a few months, and you don't recognize me?"

"Hahaha, how could I not know you, kid? But who is next to you? And you are so unscrupulous in using your divine sense to spy on him. Isn't that a bit rude?" The angry voice from before sounded again, but it was obviously someone Shi Xiaoshi knew.

Moreover, the sea of ​​fog that was spreading towards Lu Yuan and the others suddenly stopped and slowly receded.

"This is Brother Feng Xifeng. I specially asked him to come to the clan to help me." Shi Xiao explained briefly, then gave Lu Yuan a look to 'follow me', and his body descended, flying into the sea of ​​fog below.

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, and after confirming that there was nothing strange in the sea of ​​fog below except the two thousand-foot peaks, he slowly followed behind.

After the two of them passed through the sea of ​​fog one after the other, Lu Yuan discovered that the sea of ​​fog was still more than a hundred feet above the ground.

But at this moment, without any warning, at the foot of the two thousand-foot-high mountains, there was a loud bang and a stone man over three feet tall walked out from each of them.

Lu Yuan took advantage of the situation and was secretly surprised. These two stone men actually had the cultivation of the middle stage of the Demon Sect, and one of them was even at the peak of the middle stage of the Demon Sect.

"Brother Shi Xiao, could you please tell us about the origins of this Fellow Daoist Feng Xi?" The speaker was the stone man in the middle stage of the Demon Sect. Judging from the voice, Lu Yuan immediately confirmed that this guy was the one who had scolded him earlier.

The other stone man who was at the peak of the middle stage of the Demon Sect said nothing, but his eyes were flashing with brilliance as he stared at Lu Yuan from head to toe.

"This Fellow Daoist Feng is an old friend of mine. He was originally a city lord under the command of Saint Yuansha. This time I asked him to come to the clan to help." Shi Xiao directly raised the flag of Saint Yuansha.

"If you don't believe it, you can check this thing." Lu Yuan spoke at the right time and took out a piece of palm-sized triangular token.

The token is engraved with a female golem wearing armor and with a pair of exquisite short horns on her head.

"Saint Ancestor Yuansha!" The two stone demons were shocked when they saw the golem on the token, and couldn't help but stare at Lu Yuan again.

"This is my soul tablet. It has my aura on it." Lu Yuan said as he handed over the triangular token.

This soul tablet was made by the people of Huanyue Main City when they took over Wuyue Mountain City decades ago. Later, Lu Yuan handed over Wuyue Mountain City to Fire Dragon Boy and his people, and naturally asked for the soul tablet back.

"No need for that. Since you are the city lord under the Holy Ancestor, we can trust you."

The two stone demons did not take the soul tablet for inspection, because in their opinion, no one dared to use the name of Saint Yuansha to cheat.

Lu Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and put the soul tablet away.

Because the other side of his soul tablet was blank. His name and the information of the mountain city he was in charge of were originally engraved on it, but they had been erased when the soul tablet was returned to the Huanyue main city.

After verifying their identities, the two stone demons took out a fist-sized piece of unknown jade with a gray glow and handed it to Lu Yuan. Then they returned to the two peaks and no longer cared about Lu Yuan and Shi Xiao.
