Chapter 37 - The Demon Is Here

Everyone on the wooden boat was stunned.

Even Zhang Li could just smile bitterly and shake his head.

Who would have thought that the tracking talisman would go back to Zhu Yunshan, who had drawn it?

Zhu Yunshan was even more pleased with himself when he saw everyone's expressions.

"Greetings, Mr. Zhu." Zhao Ji cupped his hands at Zhu Yunshan and greeted him.

He and Liu Yue had previously visited Jing Yang Temple. Unfortunately, they had not been able to meet him.

Zhu Yunshan waved his hand. "I know, I know. You're Yuyan's brother. I heard that you're a boring person."

At this point, Zhu Yunshan glanced at the people on the ship and grinned. "Since you're here, have a seat on the Cloud Boat.

"It's my treat."

Have a seat on the Cloud Boat?

Zhao Ji and Su Ming were slightly hesitant.

The Cloud Boat was the land of smoke and willows.

However, Zhang Li and Martial King Zhao Cheng were calm.

Yu Mengmeng, on the other hand, seemed eager to give it a try.

"I know what you're looking for."

Zhu Yunshan winked at Zhang Li on the boat.

...

Luojing gathered the elites and wealthy of the Zhao state, and the city was filled with splendor.

The Luo River was Luojing's pride, and the pleasure boats were the stars of this river.

As Zhu Yunshan stood on the deck of the third floor and faced the wind, his eyes were filled with the intoxication of the mortal world.

He smiled while he looked at the calm Zhang Li.

"You guys are a little early. At night, fragrant clouds would fall and music would enter your ears. It's just like the immortal world."

Hearing his words, Zhang Li turned his head and said, "There's no such thing in the cultivation world."

Zhu Yunshan glared at him.

"Boring, boring." He waved his hand and looked at Martial King Zhao Cheng as well as Su Ming. He then swept his gaze past Yu Mengmeng, who was wearing a scholar's robe.

When he saw Zhang Chu huddled to the side in Zhang Li's robe, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

What kind of group was this?

"Today, all of their expenses on the Cloud Boat will be on me!" Zhu Yunshan shouted generously and threw out a roll of pale-yellow paper.

A few servants on the deck below picked up the roll in a hurry and bowed happily.

"Thank you for your reward, Lord Zhu."

"Here's 100 taels of silver for each of you. I wish you a long life."

For a moment, the entire deck was lively.

The originally silent boat seemed to come alive.

Many women in colorful clothes, who had yet to put on makeup, rushed to the deck and bowed before Zhu Yunshan.

One hundred taels per person?

Zhang Chu wanted to jump down and ask for a banknote too.

He swam across the river to transport salt every night, and he only had three taels of silver a month. It was not even enough for his own martial arts cultivation.

As he quietly held the golden bean in his hand, he secretly looked at Mr. Zhang, who had these magical means.

Did these people not care about money?

"How many people are on this boat?" Yu Mengmeng looked around curiously.

"With those girls and the manservants, there should be about 100 people, right?" Zhu Yunshan waved his hand and dragged Zhang Li into the cabin by his sleeve.

"Money earned is meant to be spent. Who cares?"

A hundred or so people?

He spent 10,000 taels of silver just for a casual tip?

Yu Mengmeng could not help but click her tongue.

Reaching out to touch her purse, she suddenly felt that the golden beans that she had saved for a long time were no longer worth anything.

"Master Zhu..."

"Thank you, Lord Zhu, for your reward."

Along the way, the cabin was filled with the sounds of gratitude.

People of different shapes and sizes bowed before Zhu Yunshan and said, "Good morning, Master Zhu."

"Master Zhu, I have prepared 3,000 taels today. Please give me an immortal talisman."

"Master Zhu, my master has already waited for five days. My master is offering you 5,000 taels."

...

Zhu Yunshan smiled and waved his hand. He moved closer to Zhang Li and whispered, "Three thousand taels for a sickness-expelling talisman and five thousand taels for a Spirit-nourishing talisman is okay, right?"

Both the sickness-expelling talisman and spirit-nourishing talisman were unrated talismans in the cultivation world.

The so-called healing and nourishing was just a trace of True Essence power circulating in the body. It would then condense a trace of water spirit power to cleanse the body and mind.

For cultivators who had stepped into the immortal cultivation realm, this was just a small trick.

Of course, this little trick was really useful in the mortal world.

It could really eliminate diseases and ailments in mortals.

More importantly, producing these talismans was a piece of cake for Zhu Yunshan.

The people following Zhu Yunshan and Zhang Li were all curious.

Mr. Zhu was truly a strange person.

He could spend several thousand taels of silver and also make people give him several thousand taels of silver.

"Talismans? Where did you get them from?" Zhang Li nodded and asked indifferently.

"Obviously... " Zhu Yunshan paused.

Obviously, he drew them.

He was using Zhang Li's talisman brush, Zhang Li's cinnabar ink, and Zhang Li's talisman papers to line his own pocket

"Ahem, ahem, that's not important, that's not important…" Waving his hand, Zhu Yunshan took a few steps forward and said, "This is the best spot on the boat."

"From the outside, you only see smoke and water, but on the inside, you can enjoy singing and dancing."

Zhu Yunshan sat down on a wide wooden chair by the window and said with a relaxed expression, "How is it? This kind of cultivation is much more interesting than the boring meditation in Jing Yang Temple, right?

"The mortal world keeps moving, but my heart is at peace. "

He looked so detached that it made the people behind Zhang Li feel that he was an immortal who was just playing around in the mortal world.

Unfortunately, Zhang Li knew that this guy did not come to the boat to cultivate.

"You know what we're looking for," Zhang Li said as he looked at Zhu Yunshan.

There was a reason why everyone boarded the boat.

The casual look on Zhu Yunshan's face slowly faded. He sat up straight and said, "You guys are quite capable to come this far.

"The demon is here."

Everyone's expression changed, and the Martial King's eyes finally became serious.

Su Ming turned around and cast a glance at the anxious Yu Mengmeng. He gave her a look that warned her not to speak recklessly.

A hint of excitement appeared on Zhao Ji's face.

After such a long time, there was finally news about the demon.

Zhuo Yun did not feel anything. After all, this demon had nothing much to do with him.

However, things were different for Zhang Chu.

At this moment, he finally understood how lucky he was to keep his life after swimming across the Luo River every night.

The Luo River was demonic!

He felt his legs shaking.

Zhang Li was also a little surprised. Zhu Yunshan had been attacked by the demon on this boat, so he did not expect the demon to still be around.

Why did the demon have to stay on the boat?

"Since the demon is on the boat, we can just capture it," the Martial King said in a deep voice as he turned to look at Zhao Ji.

"Get the palace guards and the boats from the Luo River Patrol to surround this boat."

The River Patrol?

Zhao Ji was a little taken aback.

He wanted to move the troops there, but how could he?

"You want to mobilize your troops? Yue has stationed a team of elites from the Mystic Moon Guards here, but we haven't been able to catch that demon's shadow for more than 10 days." Zhu Yunshan chuckled.

"Demons can easily shapeshift."

"Even if it was standing in front of you, you wouldn't be able to recognize who the demon is."

Zhu Yunshan's words made Yu Mengmeng's tightly clenched hands slowly loosen.

"However, we already know who the demon is." Zhu Yunshan's voice rang out again. Yu Mengmeng's shoulders trembled, and her face instantly turned pale.
