Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

After an episode with Yan Zheng of the Black Rock Clan, the rest of the journey was smooth. After several days of travel, Zhou Yiqiao and his party successfully arrived at their destination, Yanlin City.

Flame Scale City is the residence of the Flame Scale royal family. Although its scale is not as large as the magnificent cities built by humans, it is much better than the semi-primitive clan areas of other demon clans.

The sight of Flame Scale City made even this cultivator from the human world marvel in amazement.

The walls of Flame Scale City are built from a unique red rock.

These rocks flickered with a faint glow under the sunlight. From a distance, the entire city seemed to be surrounded by flames, exuding a hot and violent atmosphere.

The city gate is towering, and on it is carved the emblem of the Flame Scale Royal Family - a giant dragon with its wings spread high in the sky and flames all around its body.

The giant dragon looks lifelike, as if it will break through the stone gate and fly into the sky at any time.

After entering the city, the first thing Zhou Yiqiao felt was a strong fluctuation of spiritual energy.

The architectural layout of the city is well-organized, with the ruggedness and grandeur unique to the demon race, yet it is also exquisite and harmonious.

The buildings are mostly made of obsidian and red iron, which are strong and fire-resistant. The walls are engraved with various demon runes, flashing with faint light.

The streets in the city are wide, with exotic spiritual trees planted on both sides. The lush branches and leaves provide pleasant shade for pedestrians.

On the ground, demon cultivators of various races came and went, some pushing wooden carts loaded with goods, some riding strange demon beasts. It was a busy scene.

There are shops, restaurants, training halls, etc., and the sounds of hawking and chatting are heard one after another, full of vitality.

In the center of the city is a huge square with a fountain in the middle. What it sprays out is not ordinary drinking water, but a spiritual liquid that emits a faint glow.

The spiritual liquid fell into the pool below, forming a small spiritual spring.

There are stone benches and stone tables scattered around the square, and many demon cultivators sit together, exchanging their cultivation experiences or discussing business.

Lang Ye led Zhou Yiqiao and others through the bustling streets and came to a quiet residence.

This is the temporary residence rented by the Sky Demon Clan in Flame Scale City. The environment is quiet and elegant, in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

The buildings inside the residence are also mainly made of obsidian and red iron, but they are more exquisite. Every stone has been carefully carved, and every detail reveals that the rental price of this residence is destined to be extraordinary.

"It seems that the Sky Demon Clan is one of the most well-developed demon beasts in the Flame Scale Imperial Clan's sphere of influence."

Zhou Yiqiao pondered secretly and gained a preliminary understanding of the status of the Tianyao Clan in the Yanlin Royal Family.

Everyone dispersed and took a short break.

After settling down, Lang Ye found Zhou Yiqiao and said seriously.

"Brother Zhou, tomorrow I will take you to the Flame Scale Palace to meet the Flame Scale Demon Emperor."

"This son-in-law selection ceremony is not only a competition between the young and powerful people of each tribe, but also a good opportunity for each tribe to communicate with the Flame Scale Royal Family."

"I hope that Brother Zhou can help my Sky Demon Clan gain the favor of the Flame Scale Demon King."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he did not agree immediately, but said with a worried look on his face.

"Lang Ye, although this Zoroastrian Continent is not as rumored in the human cultivation world, it completely eliminates the existence of human cultivators."

"But as the overlord of this place, the attitude of the Flame Scale Demon King towards outsiders does not only represent himself, but also has to take into account the feelings of all the demons under his rule towards the human race."

"Are you sure that the other party will not be unhappy with my human identity, or even have a negative impression of you?"

Hearing Zhou Yiqiao's worries, Lang Ye showed a rare smile on his face.

This smile seemed to say that even for someone as thoughtful as Zhou Yiqiao, there would be unexpected things.

"Brother Zhou, you don't know something."

Lang Ye pulled Zhou Yiqiao into the room, took out the spiritual wine specially brewed by his Tian Yao clan, and drank it with Zhou Yiqiao while slowly telling the story.

"Brother Zhou, your concerns are not unreasonable, but please allow me to help you understand."

Wolf Night said.

"First of all, one of the most trusted advisers under the Flame Scale Demon Emperor is a human cultivator."

"This man is not only full of wisdom and strategies, but also has a high level of cultivation. He has helped the Flame Scale Royal Family resolve crises several times, so the Flame Scale Demon King relies heavily on him."

“To be honest, if it weren’t for this senior from the human race, it’s unknown whether the Flame Scale Demon King could have achieved his ambition. It can be said that this person is second only to the Flame Scale Demon King in status in this land.”

Zhou Yiqiao was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that among the high-level officials of the demon race, there would be a human cultivator who could gain such status and trust.

Wolf Night continued to explain.

"This person's name is Yun Wanggui. It is said that he came to Zoroastrianism for the same reason as Brother Zhou, to avoid his enemies in the human cultivation world."

"His arrival not only brought many advanced cultivation methods and arts to the Flame Scale Royal Family, but also won a lot of benefits for the Flame Scale Royal Family with his unique wisdom and strategies in many diplomatic disputes."

"Therefore, the attitude of the Flame Scale Royal Family towards the human race is much more open-minded than that of other demon races."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded, feeling somewhat curious about Yun Wanggui who was shrouded in mystery.

Lang Ye took a sip of the spirit wine and continued.

"Secondly, the territory of the Flame Scale Royal Family is located in the closest place to Central Continent in Zoroastrianism. Faced with so many human forces in Central Continent, even if the Flame Scale Royal Family is dissatisfied with the human race, they must put aside their thoughts and try to get along with the human race in a friendly manner."

"Although there are still many contradictions and conflicts between the demon race and the human race, at least for the Flame Scale Royal Family, only through communication and cooperation with the human race can we achieve the possibility of stable development."

After hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao's worries were relieved a lot.

"Brother Lang Ye, after hearing what you said, my doubts have indeed been reduced a lot."

Zhou Yiqiao said with a smile.

"Since the Flame Scale Imperial Family has such an open-minded attitude towards the human race, I will go to the Flame Scale Imperial Palace with you tomorrow, which should not cause unnecessary trouble."

When Lang Ye saw that Zhou Yiqiao agreed, a happy smile appeared on his face.

"It would be best if Brother Zhou could think this way."

"Brother Zhou is to me what Senior Yun Wanggui is to the Flame Scale Demon Emperor. I believe that with Brother Zhou's help, I will be able to win the Flame Scale Demon Emperor's favor for our Sky Demon Clan during our meeting tomorrow."

The two talked for a while, and Lang Ye told Zhou Yiqiao in detail some specific circumstances and precautions of the Flame Scale Royal Family.

As the night deepened, the two drank all the spirit wine that Lang Ye brought, ended their conversation, and went back to their rooms to rest and recharge their energy for the meeting the next day.
