Twisted Dreams

"What are you looking at?"

A voice came from behind.

Ye Fan turned around to see the charming Fox Xiaosan.

He quickly put away his phone:

"Nothing, nothing."

Ye Fan didn’t want the Demon Race to know that Changbai Mountain was now facing negative rumors.

Suddenly, a furry little hand grabbed the phone Ye Fan was about to put in his pocket, then swiftly climbed up the tree.

Ye Fan was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said to Heartless Little Monkey on the tree:

"Second Brother, stop messing around, give it back!"

Heartless Little Monkey said with a mischievous smile:

"Chatting with a girl? I remember you have a good relationship with that girl Qian Lele from South Sea."

Heartless Little Monkey opened Ye Fan’s phone, and as he looked at its contents, his smile gradually froze.

"Utter nonsense! How could our Demon Race eat human flesh? This is degrading us!"

Heartless Little Monkey angrily threw the phone from the tree.

Ye Fan looked at his shattered phone with a bitter face:

"Second Brother, you can look, but why smash my phone!"

Fox Xiaosan sat next to Ye Fan:

"You’re talking about those videos, right? I saw them long ago. Why hide it from me?"

Ye Fan was taken aback:

"You saw them long ago? Why didn’t you tell Big Brother?"

Crow never uses a smartphone; even if something needs to be communicated, he uses his bird followers.

Fox Xiaosan smiled at Ye Fan:

"Then why didn’t you tell His Majesty?"

Ye Fan instinctively replied:

"I didn’t want to make my Big Brother anxious and worried."

Fox Xiaosan nodded:

"Exactly, His Majesty has been in a bad mood recently because he’s stuck at Tier Five, unable to progress, and is quite irritable."

Heartless Little Monkey, sitting on the tree, somehow managed to find a peach and while munching on it said enviously:

"I’m really envious, Big Brother is Tier Five."

Ye Fan nodded with admiration.

Fox Xiaosan teased, glancing at the monkey and the human:

"When you first met His Majesty, one was a Tier Three Demon Race, and the other was a Tier Two human. Now both the monkey and you are Tier Four; how could His Majesty not be anxious? So His Majesty’s retreat is important this time; we can’t let him be troubled by bothersome matters."

Fox Xiaosan said this while gazing at the distant forest:

"His Majesty has always protected us, and we should do something for him. Even if we can’t do much, not letting him worry is good enough. So you two should listen to me during this period."

Ye Fan and Heartless Little Monkey nodded noncommittally.

Fox Xiaosan glared at Heartless Little Monkey:

"I’m talking about you; you’re the least obedient."

Heartless Little Monkey pursed his lips:

"Not true, if the Demon Race has trouble, I’ll be the first to step up!"

Fox Xiaosan replied:

"That’s the issue with you. You’ve got a short fuse, ready to explode at any provocation. Luckily, Ye Fan is there; otherwise, I’d be worried something might happen and I won’t be able to hold you back."

At this moment, an Ox Demon ran up the mountain, speaking gruffly:

"Kings, Fox Prime Minister, the Security Administration has sent people."

Fox Xiaosan’s pretty face froze, her heart sinking.

She could easily guess why the Security Administration was here.

However, their timing was far from optimal!

Peach Mountain, in the academy.

Today the Little Demons finished class early, and the academy was used as a reception area for the Security Administration administrators.

The leading administrator, Whale Bird, respectfully clasped his hands at Ye Fan, Heartless Little Monkey, and Fox Xiaosan:

"Everyone, Director Cao Yi invites Ye Demon Department to visit the Security Administration."

Heartless Little Monkey asked warily:

"For what reason?"

Whale Bird hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Some matters need to be discussed with Ye Demon Department."

Heartless Little Monkey jumped onto a table, raising his head to stare fiercely at the tall Whale Bird:

"I’ll tell you, the demon that eats must definitely not be from Changbai Mountain! Don’t make trouble here!"

The administrators tightened their grip on their briefcases.

They feared Heartless Little Monkey might suddenly attack.

The atmosphere became tense.

Fox Xiaosan flicked Heartless Little Monkey on the forehead:

"Are you stupid? If the Security Administration was here to interrogate us, they wouldn’t just summon Ye Fan."

Fox Xiaosan glanced at Whale Bird:

"If it’s really about demons eating people, I think they want to invite Prince Ye to investigate and clear our reputation. Prince Ye is a Senior Administrator; handling unusual incidents is part of his duties."

Whale Bird sighed in relief.

Finally, someone understood.

Whale Bird quickly clasped his hands to Fox Xiaosan:

"Prime Minister, you are correct, that’s exactly the case!"

Heartless Little Monkey rubbed his slightly aching forehead and reluctantly climbed down from the table.

In the Extraordinary World, status wasn’t determined merely by cultivation level.

Just like Fox Xiaosan, who had Tier Two cultivation, but was quite weak.

Yet both Whale Bird and Heartless Little Monkey showed her respect.

Heartless Little Monkey approached Ye Fan and whispered:

"If you find those demons tarnishing our reputation, make sure to kill them! Otherwise, I won’t be satisfied!"

Ye Fan solemnly responded:

"Absolutely!"

Ye Fan’s gaze was deep:

"Demons that eat people, I will personally end them!"

Seeing the matter was settled, Whale Bird clasped his hands:

"So, Ye Demon Department, shall we head back now?"

Ye Fan nodded:

"Alright!"

"Not staying for a meal?" Fox Xiaosan asked.

Whale Bird waved his hands repeatedly:

"No, no, there are still many matters at the bureau."

Fox Xiaosan didn’t insist, allowing the Security Administrators and Ye Fan to leave Peach Mountain.

Walking on Peach Mountain’s hillside, a trace of worry was visible in her eyes.

Heartless Little Monkey hung on a tree, asking:

"What’s the matter with you?"

Fox Xiaosan shook her head:

"I don’t know, my heart is racing, I always feel that something bad is about to happen."

Beidang Mountain, Safety Administration.

Since Elder He left, Ye Fan rarely visited the Safety Administration.

Ye Fan’s visits to the newly established Safety Administration at Beidang Mountain were even fewer; he mostly stayed at Changbai Mountain.

Ye Fan explored the somewhat unfamiliar Safety Administration, and finally found the Director’s office based on his memory.

Ye Fan didn’t feel any resentment due to the lack of guidance; instead, he felt a bit happy.

In such an important secret base as the Safety Administration, Ye Fan felt at ease, showing that they didn’t view him as an outsider.

Cao Yi intentionally arranged it this way.

Ye Fan entered the office, where Cao Yi was sipping tea and glanced at him:

"Get out, knock before you enter."

"Okay."

Ye Fan quickly exited, knocked, and then re-entered.

Cao Yi switched to a smiling expression:

"Tired from the several-hour flight?"

Ye Fan scratched the back of his head:

"Not too bad."

Cao Yi pointed to the chair in front of the desk:

"Sit, I want to discuss something with you."

Ye Fan obediently sat down.

He found that Cao Yi and Elder He had the same refined demeanor, both possessing the presence befitting of a Director, but Cao Yi had something more.

Ye Fan pondered for quite a while before realizing what that presence was called.

It was called charisma.

It’s the kind that doesn’t require shouting or wearing extravagant clothes.

Just a simple uniform, speaking calmly at a normal volume, yet feeling imposing.

Cao Yi said:

"What do you think about demons eating people?"

Ye Fan’s heart sank.

So it was indeed about this matter?
