Sorry, I'm Slightly Better Below

Chapter 11: Illusion Demon Pill

"This... so many?"

Chen Ze was quite shocked.

Just with a glance, he saw eight or nine Demonic Cultivators mixed in the crowd.

Most of these Demonic Cultivators disguised themselves as ordinary people. Some of them would occasionally glance at the people around them while walking on the street, as if they were looking for targets.

To be honest, this proportion was quite astonishing.

Of course, this was likely because the trial was approaching, so Demonic Cultivators appeared so frequently.

But even taking this factor into account, to achieve such a density of Demonic Cultivators on one street, the entire city would need to have at least a thousand Demonic Cultivators.

If the disciples who were about to participate in the trial knew that there were thousands of Demonic Cultivators, they would probably tremble in fear.

Chen Ze instinctively twisted his neck and sighed lightly in his heart.

How should I put it?

This situation is like walking on a tightrope between cliffs.

If you don't look down, you might just pass through it without realizing.

But if you look down... it's really scary.

In the end, he could only blame his special ability for allowing him to see too many potential dangers in this world.

Just as he was thinking about this, a man and a woman walked towards the Xunfeng Tower on the street.

The man was dressed in a blue brocade robe, holding a folding fan. He had a handsome appearance. The woman was wearing a purple long dress, beautiful in appearance, and had a well-proportioned figure. The two walked side by side, giving off a feeling of a talented man and a beautiful woman.

And these two were among the eight or nine Demonic Cultivators. The man was the strongest among them, with a cultivation level of Qi Refining Sixth Layer.

To achieve such a cultivation level in the Independent Cultivator stage, this man clearly belonged to the second type of Demonic Cultivator mentioned by the elders.

...

"Qi Refining Sixth Layer in the Desire Demon Dao, practicing the introductory chapter of the Desire Demon Technique, mastering the demonic technique of charm, Heavenly Demon Dance, Desire Demon Palm Technique, possessing the High Grade demonic weapon Happy Stick, the Middle Grade demonic weapon Carefree Fan, possessing the Low Grade demonic pill Enchanting Pill, the Intermediate Grade demonic pill Illusion Demon Pill..."

"Qi Refining Fourth Layer in the Desire Demon Dao, practicing the introductory chapter of the Desire Demon Technique, mastering the basic charm technique, Spirit Illusion Dance, Desire Demon Palm Technique, possessing the Middle Grade demonic weapon Confusing Whip, possessing the Low Grade demonic pill Enchanting Pill..."

After reading the information about these two people, Chen Ze looked away. At the same time, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the Xunfeng Tower.

"Hey, Master Feng and Miss Cui, please come inside."

Although they were on the seventh floor, Chen Ze still heard the call from the waiter downstairs.

"As usual, let's go to the private room on the top floor."

Master Feng said casually.

"Alright! Please come inside, both of you!"

The waiter responded and led the two upstairs.

After a while, the two arrived at a private room not far from Chen Ze's seat.

...

Inside the private room, after the waiter left, Miss Cui sat directly on Master Feng's lap.

Master Feng took the opportunity to put his hand into Miss Cui's neckline and began to feel her graceful figure.

After a moment of intimacy, Miss Cui extended her slender jade finger and lightly drew a circle on Master Feng's chest, then coquettishly said, "Feng Lang... in ten days, the city will be sealed. Where should I go?"

In ten days, the disciples of Azure Sun Sect will enter the city with their Law Weapons to search for Demonic Cultivators. The entire Ruifeng City will cooperate with the city's closure.

With her abilities, she probably wouldn't be able to escape the search of the Law Weapons.

So if she wants to be safe, she can only leave the city for refuge during the time before the disciples of Azure Sun Sect arrive.

But the problem is, on the day the disciples of Azure Sun Sect leave, experts from the Demon Dao sects will enter the city to recruit disciples.

If she leaves, it means she will lose the opportunity to join these demonic sects.

As for secretly sneaking into the city halfway... that's not even worth considering.

Once the city is sealed, there will be a large number of soldiers patrolling the city walls. By then, it's not just about climbing over the walls, she would probably be discovered by the soldiers before even getting close to the walls.

Those Demon Dao experts can fly, but she can't.

"What are you thinking?" Feng Gongzi asked leisurely.

"Of course, I want to join the legendary Joyous Union Sect with you and continue our dual cultivation..." Miss Cui coquettishly said, wrapping her arms around Feng Gongzi's neck.

Feng Gongzi grinned at her words, looking somewhat proud.

"If it were three days ago, I would probably advise you to leave the city, but now it's different. Just the day before yesterday, I unexpectedly obtained two Illusion Demon Pills. When these pills are thrown, they will release a large cloud of illusion mist. Even if a Qi Refining cultivator at the seventh or eighth level inhales a bit, they will temporarily fall into an illusionary realm. With my strength and these pills, I can ensure your safety. However, let's keep a low profile and avoid conflicts with those cultivators unless absolutely necessary. Since they can join the Azure Sun Sect, most likely they have some tricks up their sleeves."

"Really?" Miss Cui's face instantly filled with joy upon hearing this.

"Hehe, when have I ever lied to you?" Feng Gongzi said, squeezing her hand tightly.

"Ah! I knew Feng Lang cares about me the most!" Miss Cui instinctively exclaimed, then lowered her head and whispered in Feng Gongzi's ear with a seductive voice, "Feng Lang, that young man outside seems to have a good appearance. Should I seduce him and have some fun right here in front of you?"

After saying that, she subconsciously glanced at the railing inside the private room, her eyes flashing with a hint of bewilderment.

They often came to this private room because they could experience a certain forbidden pleasure here. Although they hadn't acted on it yet, just the thought of it made her feel weak all over.

Feng Gongzi was hit right at his weak spot by this short sentence, and his breathing instantly became rapid. But after a moment, he regained his composure.

"Let it go. You can't control your demonic desires. It's better not to use the Demonic Desire Technique recently. We'll have plenty of opportunities in the future after we join the Joyous Union Sect."

"Alright, I'll listen to you."

...

Outside the private room, Chen Ze sat on the edge of the bed, overlooking the crowd below.

Although his hearing as a cultivator was astonishing, the soundproofing of the private room was too good, coupled with the low voices of the two people inside, so he only caught fragments of their conversation.

Of course, whether he could hear or not didn't matter much to him.

"Intermediate-grade Illusion Demon Pills, capable of causing illusions in Qi Refining cultivators at the seventh or eighth level. This thing is interesting," Chen Ze muttered to himself, while secretly warning himself not to underestimate the heroes of the world.

Practicing the Demon Dao required taking many lives, and those who could harm so many lives without being noticed were all deep thinkers.

That's why it was necessary to come to Ruifeng City in advance to gather information.

Time passed by, and half an hour later, Feng Gongzi left the Xunfeng Tower with Miss Cui.

As they were leaving, Miss Cui couldn't help but throw a seductive glance at Chen Ze, and Chen Ze responded with an infatuated expression.

After the two left, Chen Ze called over the waiter.

"Waiter, what are the names and backgrounds of the man and woman who just left?"

The waiter smirked upon hearing the question.

"The man is named Feng Yin, the eldest son of the Feng family, a prominent family in the city. As for the woman, her name is Cui Yingying. She used to be a courtesan at the Flower Pavilion, but was later redeemed by Feng Yin and kept outside. They are regular customers of our Xunfeng Tower."

"Feng family's eldest son... courtesan..." Chen Ze nodded and didn't ask further.
