Zhu Long's body jerked, his mind was in a state of shock. Ku w.a.n.g smiled as he looked towards Zhu Long's shocked face.'Now, You finally realise that the war between the demons in this area is many scales larger than what you had expected.' 

Zhu Long shook his head and looked towards Ku w.a.n.g, he sighed and said,"I truly feel dumb. How have I not thought of that before. The highest ranking personnels in an Army would be The commander in chief, followed up by the General. I guess that The war with the demons in Qiang Village is only a small scale battle, maybe for land? Or something special…"

Ku w.a.n.g nodded towards Zhu Long and said,"Brother Lin is correct, this is only a small scale battle. But still, sending a Peak Nascent stage cultivator to a small village whose leader is at the 3rd stage.That does seems suspicious especially because some bigger sects had brought cultivators at the Peak nascent stage as well as those at the Void stage. It's just that they are hiding away, waiting for the demon's to attack, well, That's what teacher told me." Zhu Long had expected this answer after he had realized that the true demon true army was greater than he had been told before.

"I wonder, Who was it originally to give Brother Lin the idea that The strongest person in the Demon Army was the captain." Ku w.a.n.g inquired Zhu long.

Zhu Long thought for a while and smiled. Ku w.a.n.g was confused when he saw Zhu Long's actions but still waited for Zhu Long to answer his question.

Zhu Long looked towards Ku w.a.n.g and said,"I was told that by Brother Qiang, the third elder."

Ku w.a.n.g had expected this answer as he knew that Zhu Long had a spar with Qiang Tian Kuang but was still surprised to hear it."That doesn't seem right, I was sure that many higher ranked disciples of the village as well as the elders knew about the actual demon army consisting of stronger individuals that the captain. It seems weird that Qiang Tian Kuang would tell you that, but again, Teacher had checked him and had confirmed that he was a human, so I can't say that he can be a demon. He must have his own reasons."

Zhu Long nodded when he heard Ku w.a.n.g. He had known that Qiang Tian Kuang had been hiding something but thought nothing of it. It was common sense that everyone had their own secrets. It would have just been rude to ask if Qaing Tian Kuang was hiding something so Zhu Long had just treated it like the wind, letting it pa.s.s. 

"Brother, I think That was enough talk, We should head out, Otherwise, It may even be night time when we reach the Village Head's mansion." Ku w.a.n.g said hurriedly as he leaped towards the edge of the forest.

"Alright!" ZHu Long replied as he followed Ku w.a.n.g closely behind.

---------------------------------------

Zhu Long and Ku w.a.n.g had travelled a long and indirect path through the jungle. A path that was filled with  many demonic beasts, some extremely weak while some extremely strong. But It wasn't a problem for the duo.

"Brother Lin, Before we exit the jungle by this path, we will enter a more dangerous part of the Jungle, filled with extremely strong demonic beasts whose power are un comparable to those we have fought till now, So lets be careful from here onwards, one wrong move could mean something extremely bad." Ku w.a.n.g said to Zhu Long as they headed towards the south of the jungle.

The South of the jungle was a buffer zone between the Demonic continent and the Human continents. It was a place that both humans and demons didn't enter as it possessed very powerful demonic beasts that could rip even the strong cultivators to shreds. Although it was rare, some powerful and brave cultivators would tread through this area to fight against powerful demonic beasts to gain experience and even opportunities to break through.

Zhu Long nodded as he heard Ku w.a.n.g's warning. Eventhough he was more powerful than when he arrived to Ku w.a.n.g's mansion, Zhu Long knew the limits of his power and would never do something stupid like attack a demonic beast which was way more powerful than himself.

*ROAR* *ROAR*

A loud thunderous roar came from the forest, shaking the trees from it's sheer force. Ku w.a.n.g's face was filled with panic when he heard the roar. He looked towards Zhu Long who was also in a shocked state.

"Speak of the devil…" Zhu Long cursed his own luck when he heard the Roar. It was similar to the roar of the beast he had fought before, on his way to Ku w.a.n.g's mansion but it also felt very different. The aura emanating from the roar was it self enough to make a cultivator below nascent stage fall unconscious.

Zhu Long leaped towards the top of the tallest tree he could find and looked towards the direction of the roar. Ku w.a.n.g worriedly followed behind Zhu Long,"Brother Lin, I think That we can avoid this beast, It seems like it just caught a prey and is feasting on it, we can take this opportunity to sneak away without the beast noticing our aura…"

Zhu Long looked towards Ku w.a.n.g and nodded, He knew that this beast would be extremely powerful to battle.'If I wasn't in a hurry to head to the Village head's residence, I would have fought him. But sadly, I don't have the time to..'Zhu Long sighed to himself as he started to walk away from the beast. 

'BRAT, LEAVE THE MATTER ABOUT THE VILLAGE HEAD TO LATER, I WANT YOU TO KILL THAT BEAST!!'
