Chapter 421 Being a dog depends on whose dog you're being.
"Here!"
Ape Crossing and Ape Guard respectfully acknowledged the order, then left the forbidden area of the ape clan and headed towards the Fengyuan Mountains.
"Lord Saruwatari, there is absolutely nothing in the Fengyuan Mountains that can threaten Saruno. Perhaps Saruno was simply delayed by something and that's why he didn't return for the gathering..."
As they walked out of the Divine Ape Forest, Yuanhu looked at Yuandu and spoke.
He knew Yuan Nuo's personality and strength very well. The other party was powerful and stayed in Fengyuan Mountain Range. No one would be so idle as to cause trouble for a Tribulation Transcending stage expert.
Moreover, Yuan Nuo's identity is not a secret. Killing him would mean making an enemy of the entire ape clan. No one would risk offending the entire ape clan for the sake of Yuan Nuo!
"Whether Yuan Nuo is dead or alive, we will naturally find out after we reach the Fengyuan Mountains. What's the use of telling me now?"
Yuan Du glanced at Yuan Hu sideways and said coldly.
"Yes Yes Yes......"
Yuan Hu nodded in agreement. Yuan Du and Yuan Pei were not the same. Yuan Pei was only at the mid-stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, only one small realm higher than him. He and Yuan Nuo together were not afraid of each other at all. However, Yuan Hu was a genuine late-stage Tribulation Transcending Realm cultivator. Even if he and Yuan Nuo were tied together, they would not be a match for Yuan Hu.
Therefore, he dared to confront Yuan Pei head-on, but dared not contradict Yuan Du.
The two headed towards the Fengyuan Mountains without stopping for a moment. Although Yuan Hu did not believe that Yuan Nuo had perished, it was better to be safe than sorry, and it would be best to get to the Fengyuan Mountains as soon as possible to see for themselves.
The two traveled day and night for three days and three nights, and finally arrived at the Fengyuan Mountains.
Outside the Fengyuan Mountains, Yuan Du and Yuan Hu looked at the mountains in front of them, unaware of anything unusual.
There were no signs of a major battle, which put both of them at ease.
Perhaps Yuan Nuo was genuinely delayed by something.
"The Fengyuan Mountains seem to be not far from human territory..."
Saruwatari glanced around and spoke.
“The Fengyuan Mountains are indeed very close to the human territory, but Yuan Nuo would never provoke the human race. Moreover, the human race’s main focus is on the spirit race, so how could they spare any attention to the Fengyuan Mountains?”
Upon hearing Yuan Du's words, Yuan Hu dismissed them.
Hearing his words, Yuan Du frowned and said, "You don't know anything about the human race?"
"whats the matter?"
Yuan Du looked puzzled. He had been in seclusion before the ape clan gathering and only came out when the gathering was approaching. After coming out of seclusion, he went directly to the Divine Ape Forest. He really didn't know about what had happened in the Central Region during this time.
Could it be that the human race has made some kind of move recently?
Seeing Yuan Hu's expression, Yuan Du knew that he was truly unaware of the recent uproar in the Central Region.
Yuan Du recounted in detail the recent information about the human race in the Central Region to Yuan Hu.
"The human race today is no longer the weak and easily bullied race it once was. Even the Spirit Race suffered greatly at their hands. If Yuan Nuo really provokes the human race, he's probably doomed..."
Aruwatari's gaze was gloomy as he spoke in a cold voice.
"This...how is this possible?"
Yuan Hu hadn't yet recovered from Yuan Du's words; he was still trying to process this explosive news.
The human race actually defeated a human race led by a human immortal realm expert. Is this really something the human race could do?
"Alright, let's hope Yuan Nuo didn't provoke the humans! Otherwise, he'll have died in vain. Even the clan leader doesn't want to mess with the humans these days..."
Seeing Yuan Nuo's distraught appearance, Yuan Du spoke calmly.
"Yes...yes, things are not confirmed yet. Perhaps Yuan Nuo did not provoke the human race!"
Upon hearing Yuan Du's words, Yuan Nuo finally came to his senses, and a glimmer of hope reappeared in his eyes.
There are also factions among the apes, and the struggle between factions is always brutal, whether for resources or status.
He and Yuan Nuo belong to the same faction. If something really happens to Yuan Nuo, his influence among the apes will gradually decline, and one day he will be squeezed out of the center of the ape clan.
Now he just hopes that Yuan Nuo hasn't gotten into any trouble.
The two concealed themselves and entered the Fengyuan Mountains.
If Yuan Nuo really provoked the human race and was killed, then the human race would definitely have left a backup plan in the Fengyuan Mountains.
Therefore, the two could only sneak in quietly to gather information.
Yuan Hu had been to Fengyuan Mountain Range several times, so he naturally knew where Yuan Nuo's cave was.
The inner layer of the Fengyuan Mountains.
Outside the cave where Yuan Nuo once lived.
Two figures emerged from the void.
Looking at the dilapidated, lifeless cave before him, Yuan Hu's last hope was shattered.
"It seems that Yuan Nuo really has been murdered..."
Even with his divine sense spreading out, Yuan Du couldn't find Yuan Nuo's figure, nor could he find a single monkey.
By now, he was almost certain that Yuan Nuo had been murdered.
"By the way, there's also a tiger demon in the Tribulation Transcending stage within the Fengyuan Mountains. If something happens to Yuan Nuo, that tiger demon definitely knows something..."
Suddenly, Yuan Hu thought of something and quickly spoke up.
"Where is that tiger demon? Take me there..."
Upon hearing Yuanhu's words, Yuandu spoke up.
Now, although he has confirmed that Yuan Nuo has been killed, he has no idea how he died. Their last hope now rests on this tiger demon.
At this moment, inside the Tiger King's cave.
The Tiger King lay leisurely on the chair, with several female demons massaging him. The tiger demon opened his mouth, and one of the female demons immediately put a peeled grape into the Tiger King's mouth.
Although he surrendered to the Qin Dynasty, his life was better than before.
With Yuan Nuo no longer pressing down on him, he couldn't be more relaxed.
Although the Qin Dynasty would sometimes ask him to do things, it generally didn't bother with him.
Moreover, he has now brought all the demons of the Fengyuan Mountains under his command, and he has truly become a demon king.
Although this demon king didn't have much power, he was just a dog kept by the Qin Dynasty.
But no matter what, the demon race in the entire Fengyuan Mountain Range outwardly listens to him!
Besides, even if you're going to be a dog, it depends on whose dog you're going to be!
He felt that being a dog of the Qin Dynasty wasn't so bad.
During this time, his understanding of the Qin Dynasty deepened considerably. Although he didn't know the true strength of the Qin Dynasty, he could tell how powerful it was just by looking at its army.
"Tiger King, you have quite the refined taste!"
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out inside the Tiger King's cave.
The Tiger King was startled and sat up instantly, and the female demons beside him scattered and fled.
"Who are you, and what brings you to my cave?"
The Tiger King looked at the two apes in front of him with a wary expression, his eyes full of fear. The two apes were actually at the Tribulation Transcending stage.
Upon seeing that they were apes, the Tiger King had already determined their identities; they had probably come for Ape Nuo.
But at this moment, he absolutely could not show any abnormality, and he absolutely could not let them know the truth about Yuan Nuo's fall.
"Tiger King has such a bad memory! We met once decades ago..."
Yuan Hu said with a gloomy face.
Upon hearing his words, the Tiger King looked over carefully, but after a long time, he still couldn't remember who the person was.
It's not his fault; he sees all ape chiefs as the same, so it's normal that he can't tell them apart.
"Forget it, if you can't remember, don't think about it. Tiger King, you should know why we're here. Tell us, what exactly happened to Yuan Nuo..."
Seeing that the Tiger King couldn't remember, Yuan Hu didn't pay too much attention and asked directly.
"really!"
Upon hearing Yuan Hu's question, the Tiger King thought to himself.
"Yuan Nuo?"
"He has been gone from the Fengyuan Mountains for some time now, saying he is leading his people to the Holy Demon Dynasty..."
"What happened? Did something happen to him instead of going to the Holy Demon Dynasty?"
The Tiger King said with a face full of doubt.
Yuanhu and Yuandu stared intently at the Tiger King, trying to find a clue in his face, but they found nothing.
