677 Strange Reaction
When they heard this word again, the demonsâ reaction became even stronger. They began to hit their heads and cry out.
âHave you been cursed? Why canât you hear this word?â
Jiang Ming realized the problem and looked at the bird strangely.
The bird had a strange expression on its face, but it refused to elaborate.
Jiang Ming understood what was going on and frowned. âWho put a curse on you? Was it done by the person who wielded the sword?â
The bird gulped and started to change the topic. âLetâs go eat something. These demons have a lot of delicious fruits and other things. Youâll definitely enjoy them. Theyâre very rare.â
At this point, the bird felt that its injuries had recovered a little, so it immediately recovered and returned to its human form. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The rest of the demons were excited again. They knelt down and kowtowed to the bird. âCongratulations, for returning to your original form, Master!â
Seeing this, Master Long and Jiang Ming were a little shocked.
Jiang Ming continued to ask, âDo you get such a big reaction every time you transform?â
âNo,â the bird replied. âItâs because youâre here that they put on such a big show. They want you to know my position in the Hundred Demon Tower.â
When it came to its status, the bird chirped non-stop. âYou donât know how powerful I was when I led these demons to chase away the rebellious demons. All the demons hid behind me while I fought the others off. No one dares disobey me. They must listen to me.â
At this moment, the demons chimed in. âMaster is wise.â
âYou look young, but youâre quite capable,â Master Long praised the bird perfunctorily. âJust tell us where that thing is now, and weâll go get it ourselves. We donât need you to come with us.â
The bird started to stammer again. âNo⦠No, you canât take that thing away either. It has to stay in the Hundred Demon Towerâ¦â
âWhy?â Master Long lost his patience. âDo you want to be cursed that badly? Or is it because of that thing that these demons listen to you? If itâs gone, will they not listen to you?â
Hearing this, the bird grew incensed. âWhat nonsense are you talking about? How is that possible? These demons are loyal to me.â
At this moment, these demons also nodded their heads and said, âYes, yes. We are all loyal to Master. We donât have any other thoughts at all.â
âThese demons seem a little strange.â
Master Long realized that something was wrong and whispered to Jiang Ming.
The bird still heard him. âWhatâs wrong with that? They just lost some of their beastly nature. Isnât that good? Theyâre extremely docile and wonât attack you. If someone hurts you, feel free to come to the Hundred Demon Tower to find me. I will lead my demon armies and kill those who want to hurt you.â
The demons began to tremble again. âThe elf can answer every question you have.â
Master Longâs interest was piqued as he spoke to the little demon beside him.
The little demon coughed and said, âYou can ask directly. You can also ask internally so that the other demons wonât hear you.â
Upon hearing this, Master Long was secretly delighted. He quickly asked internally, âWhere is the sword that matches the Dragon Sword?â
The elf closed her eyes and pointed in a direction. She was not pointing at anything in particular. In fact, she was pointing at the bird.
The bird took a step back and looked on in surprise. Jiang Ming asked Master Long, âWhat did the elf say? Why is it pointing at the bird?â
Master Long immediately understood. He connected all the dots and quickly looked at Jiang Ming. He said, âThis little guy stole the Dragon Sword. Bird, you should return the sword.â As he spoke, he looked at the bird.
Jiang Ming also looked at the bird and quickly said, âYes, there are some things you have to return.â
When they heard the word again, the other demons hid in fear.
The bird dropped all pretenses and snorted coldly. âWhy should I give you the Mated sword? The Mated sword is mine.â
âThis Dragon Sword and the Mated Sword have belonged to the Long family since ancient times. However, due to some special circumstances, this Mated Sword was sent to the Hundred Demon Tower,â Master Long said unhappily.
The bird was a little surprised. âYou⦠Are you from the Long family?â
Seeing that there was a chance to get it, Jiang Ming said, âHe is indeed from the Long family. Not only that, but he is also the Long familyâs master.â
Hearing this, the bird was enraged. âWhy are the people of the Long family here? I remember that I set a restriction to keep them out. The members of the Long family are not allowed to come here.â
âSo, it was your fault that I couldnât come in!â
Master Long was furious. A golden sword appeared in his hand, and he pointed it at the bird.
The bird did not want to be outdone and immediately said, âItâs clearly the Long family thatâs robbing the Hundred Demon Tower! Why wonât you allow me to set restrictions?â
âYouâre talking nonsense. When did I let the Long family come here to rob and plunder the tower? Donât slander me!â
Master Long was so angry that he was about to get ill again.
Jiang Ming was still relatively calm. He calmly persuaded Master Long, âWhat this bird said may not be the truth. Letâs not listen to everything it says. The most important thing now is to get back the Mated Sword.â
When it heard that they wanted to take back the Mated Sword, the bird wanted to run away, but it was pulled back by Jiang Ming.
The bird could not help but shout, âThereâs no justice in this world! Why are you treating me like this? Itâs clearly the Long familyâs fault! Now you want to snatch the Mated Sword from the Hundred Demon Tower!â
âI think youâre talking nonsense. Thatâs why these demons are so afraid. Youâd better tell us the truth. We wonât hurt you if you do.â
