Mountain and sea essence

Although the party of monsters is a gathering for monsters to exchange experience of living in human society, in the final analysis, the participants are all monsters.Here, there is no law-abiding in human society, let alone modesty and politeness. Everyone acts according to their own temperament.If you want the other party to be obedient, then use your strength to speak, so basically every year there are many monsters who provoke trouble.

If there is a powerful ancient monster who makes the rules, the order of this party can still be established.It is a pity that His Majesty the Demon Emperor has no interest in this party at all. Although Tang Kang became the president of the Monster Association through his close relationship with the Demon Emperor, Tang Kang is not the only ancient monster in the Monster Association. Inevitably, some of the great monsters are still equal in strength, and no one will accept the other.So the party failed to establish order from the very beginning, and it also led to several accidents in which little demons were eaten by big demons in the first two parties.Later, there were no little monsters to attend the party, and the situation improved. At most, they provoked each other and got injured in fights, but it was considered a balance.

Tang Kang thinks this situation is not bad, and other members of the Demon Association have no objections. Zhu Yan also thinks that it is not a problem for monsters to provoke and fight each other at the party, but-this is only limited to seeing Qiao Jun on the cruise ship today. Fu Li may have also followed before!His Majesty the Demon Emperor's state of deliberately suppressing his cultivation was almost unrecognizable to anyone he had seen with his own eyes, let alone those monsters who had never seen His Majesty the Demon Emperor at all!

If some short-sighted militant went up to provoke that person, it would only take a few minutes for him to burn the cruise ship to ashes when he got angry!He just came to the party to join in the fun, he didn't want to become a charcoal-grilled ape!

Zhu Yan stood in front of the elevator and frantically pressed the elevator button.

He wasn't sure if Fu Li had attended the party, and he didn't know if His Majesty the Demon Emperor wanted to let others know of his presence, so he decided to find Qiao Jun first, and secretly follow to see the situation.

Qiao Jun's evil aura was well hidden, and Zhu Yan couldn't trace his evil aura. Fortunately, Qing Ke didn't deliberately conceal his evil aura, and let him chase the evil aura in the banquet hall on the ninth floor, and successfully found Qiao Jun.

The banquet hall is a jumping-floor design with three floors.The first floor is the cafeteria, and the second and third floors from the spiral staircase are boxes, VIP rooms, game rooms and the like.

Qiao Jun and Qing Ke did not go upstairs, but ate snacks in the cafeteria on the first floor.It was less than an hour before the cruise ship sailed, and it was only less than seven o'clock, and it was still early before the banquet at eight o'clock. The cafeteria hadn't served the main meal yet, and only some pre-dinner snacks were placed.

Zhu Yan hid behind the stone pillars in the hall on the first floor, and scanned around Qiao Jun several times to make sure he didn't see Fu Li.

Didn't His Majesty the Demon Emperor come with Qiao Jun?Or that His Majesty the Demon Emperor left Qiao Jun behind to engage in solo activities?

"Zhu Yan, why are you sneaking behind this pillar?"

Zhu Yan was so frightened by the sudden voice behind him that he almost jumped up.As soon as he turned his head, he saw Tang Kang touching his belly that seemed to be several months pregnant, and looked at it with a puzzled face.The slender, handsome young man with an elegant and gentle demeanor standing beside Tang Kang was taking pictures of him with a SLR.

"It's you! Dangkang, Bai Ze..." Zhu Yan heaved a sigh of relief, and his eyes fell on the gentle and elegant young man, "Bai Ze, long time no see, I didn't expect you to come too."

"My photography trip has just ended, and I have nothing to do recently. I heard that this year's party is New Year's Eve at sea. It's very interesting, so I came to have a look." Bai Ze said, "Then what are you doing?"

"Hush—" Zhu Yan hurriedly pulled the two of them behind the pillar, "Keep your voice down, don't be found out."

"Don't let anyone notice you?" A tall man with Martin boots and messy hair, with his hands in his coat pockets, strode towards Zhu Yan and the others.

"Gaotie?" Bai Ze turned his head to look.

"Hey! Bai Ze, long time no see. Also, please call me Tao Tie." After Taotie finished speaking, his gaze turned to Zhu Yan again.

"Qiao Jun, the chicken spirit who is following His Majesty the Demon Emperor." Zhu Yan said, pointing to Qiao Jun who was having a great time with Qing Ke in the banquet hall.

Tang Kang, Bai Ze, and Taotie, the three ancient monsters, poked their heads out from behind the pillar and looked in the direction Zhu Yan was pointing at.

Tang Kang: "It is indeed the chicken essence that is following Fu Li."

Taotie: "Oh? Is he the chicken essence?"

Bai Ze: "...Sorry, I think I need to correct you, it's not a chicken essence."

Tang Kang: "Huh?"

Taotie: "Then why isn't it chicken essence?"

Zhu Yan: "Isn't his original form a silky chicken? Am I wrong?"

Bai Ze took a picture of Qiao Jun, "Although his original shape looks almost exactly like a silkie, I can be sure that it is a Chongming bird."

Tang Kang, Zhu Yan, Taotie: "Chongming bird?!"

Zhu Yan: "Hush! Shh! You are too loud!"

Taotie: "You have a share, too?"

Tang Kang stood up straight and turned his head to look at Bai Ze: "Bai Ze, are you sure you are not mistaken? Does the Chongming bird look like that? I once saw the Chongming bird from a distance, and it was indeed white. Wrong, but the body shape is closer to that of a phoenix, and it looks more elegant, not this kind of wild chicken."

"That's because what you saw was Chongming Bird's mature bird, not his fledgling posture." Bai Ze said calmly, "It's normal if you haven't seen it before. Chongming Bird is a monster with a cold and indifferent personality. They are gregarious and rarely appear in our field of vision. It is also luck to see adult birds, let alone chicks.”

"Aloof and out of gregarious?" Taotie glanced at Qiao Jun who was chatting and laughing with Qing Ke in the banquet hall, "Why is he aloof and out of gregarious?"

"He should be a special case. Anyway, the few Chongming birds I have been lucky enough to meet have the same aloof personality as the rumors. He should be the liveliest one among the Chongming birds I have met," Bai Ze said.

"So——Qiao Jun is actually a juvenile Chongming bird?" Zhu Yan looked at Bai Ze.

"It's hard to say." Bai Ze said, "Chongming bird will awaken consciousness before it hatches, and its infancy as a chick is actually only a dozen years. After adulthood, there will be a transitional period of variable length. His original form will not transform into the form of a bird, and he will have to wait until his power is awakened before the original form will grow into feathers and turn into a bird."

"I remember Qiao Jun said that he has been incarnate for 20 years." Zhu Yan said.

"That should be an adult, but now we are in an awkward transition period." Bai Ze said.

"Speaking of the Chongming bird..." Tang Kang pondered for a while, then slowly said, "I remember that Fu Li seemed to have found a Chongming bird egg, but it was lost in the great war 500 years ago before it hatched. gone."
