Assuming A Demon’s Form

Half an hour after leaving the residence, Shi Mu found himself just outside the courtyard where this particular gang of demons dwelled.

"Shi Tou, why are you here?" Cai had been dispatched to act as surveillance on a particular Snake Demon male, but as soon as it saw Shi Mu, it flew and perched on his shoulder.

"Who would've known a secret technique like that exists! If it comes down to this, I recommend that you do what you came here to do right now, 'cause these demons talked about returning to Heaven Ascension Peak and I can't tell when exactly they're planning to return."

"Has Qing Cang leave this place today?"

"He visited the Millennial Gold Store today, probably to purchase some charms, but he didn't seem to have found whatever he wanted, either, 'cause he returned much sooner than expected."

"Alright then, we'll see what happens tomorrow."
