Chapter 1806 - 1807: Direct Confrontation
Hu Xiao arrived, deliberately hiding his presence. Su Chengyu could confirm it was the Demon Clan, but he truly did not recognize Hu Xiao.
Of course, after Su Chengyu unleashed his sword, he would inevitably recognize the opponent’s identity. Although not placing them at death’s door, under such circumstances, their actions would most likely be detected by others.
The Demon Clan raising the tribal people in this place had not yet taken direct action, but Su Chengyu could sense that the Demons surrounding the tribe were increasing in number.
"You’re back so quickly? I thought you’d stay there until I personally came over?"
Su Chengyu’s words were clearly sarcastic, and Hu Xiao instantly grasped the meaning, smiling as he spoke.
"Sir, how could I possibly escape from your clutches given my abilities?"
Su Chengyu snorted coldly. He indeed had not found the reason, but he could perceive that the current Hu Xiao seemed more interested in seeking something from him, or seeking an answer, compared to before when he was simply wary of him.
"Have you already joined them?"
Hu Xiao shook his head. "Not to that extent. Although that big mountain cat welcomed me, it did not directly include me. It’s clear it has some sense."
Intelligence is a highly valued and differentiated trait among the Demons in this land. While many Demons view tactics and schemes as mere trivial tricks, in the end, it all boils down to the supremacy of strength.
