There was a lot of space inside the carriage. Qing Jun was sitting in the innermost part, and seeing the
ever-disgusted expression on his face, Shen Yanxiao consciously sat by the door. As for the devil man, he
was responsible for driving the carriage.
Along the way, Qing Jun didn’t say anything. Whenever it was meal time, the carriage would stop and the
devil man would supply them with food.
During this period of travel, Shen Yanxiao’s brain began to work rapidly.
Although it was good to follow Qing Jun to the main city of a devil general, there was one more thing that
concerned Shen Yanxiao very much.
What were the devils planning to do at the border?
Was what the devil man said just an excuse to take Qing Jun away, or was it true?
If it was only an excuse, then it didn’t matter. If it was true, Shen Yanxiao needed to pay attention to what
they were planning to do at the border.
It was just that right now, she did not have time for this. She must rst nd out the true ghting capacity
of the devils.
She hoped that the results of her trip to the Guiwang City would not disappoint her.
The speed of demon beasts was ten times faster than that of horses. In a few days, they had arrived at
their destination.
The dark city looked ghastly and eerie. Compared with the bustling scene at the border, the atmosphere
in the Guiwang City was much more depressing.
The devils on the road kept their heads down and were silent. There were no colorful lights and no
pleasant songs.
Here, it was like a ghost town.
Qing Jun’s new residence was arranged in the center of Guiwang City. The courtyard was larger than that
of his home in the border town. The herb garden had already been prepared as well, also much larger
than the previous one.
Qing Jun was quite satised with the arrangements here.
“Lord Qing Jun, please take a rest rst. I’ll report to Lord Gui Jiang in the meantime.” After the devil man
made arrangements, he withdrew.
Qing Jun rst checked the laboratory; the results were not bad.
Shen Yanxiao stood aside honestly. There was seemingly nothing unusual with her, but her mind had
become active as soon as she entered Guiwang City.
Now that she entered this city, she couldn’t just stay at Qing Jun’s side all day long. With Qing Jun’s
character, she feared that she would also not have too much contact with the man named Gui Jiang and
could only get too few clues as a result.
Fortunately, Qing Jun liked to stay in the laboratory all day, so Shen Yanxiao had plenty of opportunities to
sneak out to nd information.
Gui Jiang slowly came to the residence after half a day.
When Gui Jiang came, Shen Yanxiao was hiding behind the chair in the hall, preparing for tonight’s action.
A series of knocks on the gate pulled her back from her thoughts.
When the door was opened, Shen Yanxiao was immediately enveloped by the powerful devil energy that
blew against her face. An invisible pressure covered her from head to toe, and a drop of cold sweat
seeped from her forehead.
The devil standing outside the door was tall and handsome, but that good-looking face had a scar that
was slanted on his cheek and as long as a pinkie nger, tarnishing his looks. Shen Yanxiao’s breathing
became slower and her heart was shaken by the other party’s powerful devil energy. She knew very well
that the devil in front of her was one of the twelve devil generals!
This was Shen Yanxiao’s rst contact with a devil at this level. However, this contact astonished her
greatly!
Today, she was already at the peak of the Saint Profession, only one step away from the Divine
Profession, but when faced with Gui Jiang, she felt an overwhelming repression.
This was the absolute suppression of strength!
To think that the devil generals were actually strong to this extent!
Shen Yanxiao thought that the Divine Profession should be able to ght the devil generals, but now she
was not so sure.
The feeling that the devil general gave her was like that of the Dragon God and Shen Siyu, who were
already close to the level of superior gods!
