Chapter 2450: The Lord’s Return (5)
The middle demons in the Barren Land already had a good chance to evolve. After all, it hadn’t been many
years since the Barren Land was built.
“Little Tiny seems to have evolved faster than other demons? Apart from Little Tiny, are there any demons
that have crossed two levels in a short time?” Shen Yanxiao looked at the little fellow hiding behind
Vicious Wolf. In terms of shyness, Little Tiny was the most shy creature Shen Yanxiao had ever seen.
“None. It’s naturally best to evolve from a middle demon to a higher demon, but Little Tiny was the only
one to achieve that for now.” Fu Tu answered with a smile. Little Tiny’s evolution was considered a miracle
in both the underworld and Radiance Continent. In just a few years, she could actually evolve from a
lower demon to a higher demon. Such swiftness was absolutely unprecedented.
“I asked Little Tiny for the reason, but she herself didn’t exactly know. She just said that she was very
eager to evolve into a higher demon. Her body probably absorbs the external atmosphere faster than
other demons in her daily life.”
“Is it the desire?” Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes. However, no demon lacked the desire to become a
higher demon, for they stood at the pinnacle of the demons. Therefore, desire could not be used as a
reasonable explanation.
In addition to reporting the evolution of the demons, Fu Tu also summarized the progress and situations
of the various Demon Trade Unions and underground cities during Shen Yanxiao’s time away. Over the
period of two years, all demons on the Radiance Continent had been unied. The demons hidden all over the mainland gathered in the Barren Land during this period of time. They now lived in the underground
cities with an inexhaustible supply of dark elements. After all, no demon would be so foolish as to refuse a
stable living environment and a wealth of food.
Besides receiving certain treatment, the demons who came to take refuge in the Barren Land’s cities also
had the same obligation. They must secretly protect the safety of all the cities in the Barren Land and put
all the magical beasts and malicious people that wanted to destroy them in their proper place. Escorting
caravans, organizing escort teams, and joining the Demon Trade Unions were some of the activities they
could choose to do.
Some demons had also joined Su He’s mining team and Uncle Jiu’s farming team. Even the forging
workshop had many demons. In the Barren Land, demons had been completely a.s.similated with human
beings. There was no longer a gap between the two races.
Because of the precedent set by Du Lang and Yao Ji, as well as Vicious Wolf and Little Tiny, many people
had had ambiguous feelings towards the demons.
The power and beauty of higher demons was obvious to all. Compared with similar human males, they
were even more conspicuous. As a result, many young ladies had a pa.s.sion for higher demons. Fu Tu had
the most admirers among the demons. His lazy appearance, in contrast to his serious moments, had
captivated many young girls.
The number of female demons was so very, very small that there was no third female higher demon to
stand beside Yao Ji and Little Tiny, so the human boys were relatively depressed.
In addition to his daily duties in the city, Fu Tu did not relax the training of the demon army. He took care
of the training methods Xiu had left them. They had been carefully learning them all by heart. After daily
training, the ghting strength of the demon army now was even better than it was during the beast tide.
“I’m glad that you’ve done a good job.” Shen Yanxiao listened to Fu Tu’s report and her face was lled with
a satised smile. The growth of the demons nally conrmed that she had done the right thing.
