Now in this situation.
Once the demon auction ends and the transaction is completed, they will definitely go to the backyard to "collect the goods".
By that ti.
If the demons find there's no goods, Baiyu and Xu Qiu won't be able to escape no matter how hard they try.
Chang Ji clearly feels she's in control of Baiyu and the others, so she hasn't posted guards.
And she's not wrong.
When the whole area is shrouded in that gray mist, any living person entering the mist will be instantly corroded into a skeleton.
Though it's unknown what Tier martial artist can withstand it.
But with Baiyu's current Tier Five Peak body, it's likely difficult to withstand.
The gray mist is extrely peculiar, and all these demons shy away from it, unwilling to be contaminated; if humans use their flesh to resist, even if they survive, they'll certainly be left with aftereffects.
Not to ntion.
The entrance outside is already closed.
Even if you pass through layers of gray mist, reaching the entrance won't help.
The only way to escape now.
Is to find a breakthrough here, hoping the Butcher won't disappoint, as he is an Immortal after all.
After the demons drank the at soup.
The Butcher's disguise wasn't discovered, so he withdrew to the side, standing harmlessly in the corner, observing the dynamics of the entire hall.
The demon bidding continues.
Martial artists from the Anomaly Bureau are now exceptionally rare and in demand.
Although not much different from other human martial artists, perhaps due to psychological reasons, they feel more accomplished?
Baiyu can't figure out the mindset of these monsters.
He hides in the kitchen, quietly observing the hall through a gap, noting the various features of the demons.
This was his first close observation of demons.
Of course.
These guys don't have any other features.
They could have fish heads on human bodies, with saber teeth on their backs, or six arms and eight legs.
Anyway, all are bizarre, weird shapes.
Just like those heavily mutated humans, corrupted by Extraordinary Power.
During Baiyu's observation.
The atmosphere in the hall grew even warr, reaching a feverish stage.
The final transaction price was fifty thousand Rupees; though it's unclear how much that is, looking at the expressions of the demons, it's not a small amount.
Rupees.
This is the currency of demons.
Equivalent to human cash.
The one who bought Baiyu and his friends' lives was a black demon with a fat head and ears, and two mouths and faces.
The opponent stood about three ters tall, with a broad build.
Its entire body covered in black hair.
It looked very much like an ape.
"Chang Ji, take to see the goods. While everyone's here, I'll kill a bipedal sheep for entertainnt."
The two-faced demon said gruffly.
The surrounding demons instantly started to clamor.
"Boss is generous!"
"When did you get so generous, Ni Gui?"
"Just for what you said today, call next ti you're treating, and I'll be there without question."
Hearing the demons' cheers.
The two-faced Ni Gui felt rather proud, with a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
Most demons' thought processes are simple.
This was sothing Baiyu learned through his observation over ti.
Ni Gui was like that.
Just then, among the demons, Ni Gui's smug smile didn't last long before blood suddenly gushed out of his mouth.
Then his body shattered like a porcelain piece.
Beneath the skin.
Cracks like spider webs appeared, red blood constantly flowing out, and as the scars expanded, blood sprayed out like a fountain, splattering all over the place.
Swish...
Ni Gui collapsed like a broken porcelain vase, turning into chunks of flesh, scattering on the ground, rapidly turning into stones.
The hall's warm atmosphere instantly fell silent.
The demons snapped out of the shock of Ni Gui's sudden death, looking in unison towards Chang Ji standing in the center.
"What happened? I clearly didn't feel any Blood Qi, how did Ni Gui die!"
"Did soone secretly do sothing?"
"With Ni Gui's strength, who could secretly tamper with him without leaving traces? Impossible!"
"Chang Ji, you must give us an explanation."
"Doesn't add up. If we're being honest, the biggest possibility was that bowl of at soup."
Instantly.
Chang Ji beca the center among the demons, caught in a storm.
Facing the violent gaze of these monstrous creatures, if Chang Ji doesn't give an explanation, today will likely end poorly.
But.
She doesn't even know what's going on.
That at soup, she clearly had the chef prepare it, there's no way there's an issue.
"Don't rush, we haven't determined the cause yet, check Ni Gui's cause of death first!
Think about it.
How long has this shop been open here? How many tis have you all been here?
Have I ever tampered with any of you?"
Chang Ji shouted loudly.
Must say she had so authority on her ho turf.
With one shout.
Most demons surprisingly cald down.
Baiyu thought to himself that it was bad.
If these demons truly clarify things, wouldn't he be imdiately hunted down?
But.
The Butcher in the hall corner still remained calm.
Baiyu suppressed the unease in his heart, continuing to watch the hall, that group of murderous demons, unexpectedly subdued by Chang Ji.
They all approached Ni Gui's body.
Of course.
There was no actual body, just scattered stones.
Many demons surrounded the stones, chattering away.
Before anything could be analyzed, two more demons fell with the sa symptoms as Ni Gui; first covered in cracks, then directly shattered, turning into fragnts, and swiftly fossilizing into stones.
This scene of demon deaths was quite novel.
In the kitchen, Baiyu watched all of this, greatly amazed.
Now the consecutive deaths have caused the demons to lose their footing.
"Chang Ji, it must be Chang Ji's doing!"
"Double-crossing us, playing this trick too."
"We can't sit idle, kill her, force her to give out the antidote."
A group of demons started shouting.
In their angry state, they were even more grim and terrifying than before.
However, Chang Ji clearly wasn't easy to deal with either.
She imdiately realized soone was causing trouble, otherwise several demons couldn't die in succession.
The last likelihood was the chef.
Sadly.
As she raised her head, intending to find her long-serving loyal chef, she couldn't see him.
"Damn, we've been tricked, it must be those humans."
Chang Ji's eyes turned fierce, as several demons crazily charged, reasoning with them in this state was completely impossible.
Moreover, backing down now would only make things worse. Furious demons would certainly kill her completely.
No choice.
She could only grab her weapon, face them head-on.
An all-out brawl broke out.
The inn was pretty strong, those demons couldn't gain an upper hand quickly.
Sadly they drank the at soup, poisoning accelerated during the fight, one after another fell before exchanging many blows.
