After hearing that, Cech Flet who was cold all the time even burst out laughing. Almost everyone was imagining what it looked like when this beautiful demon girl got her butt smacked by Gomez Jane.

Bhang Wusheng had to cough dryly again. When facing these young people, the Bandit King felt a little powerless. Everyone else would be careful and timid when they faced him. However, these young people didn’t really see him as someone scary; they chatted and joked with each other regularly.

Even when talking about sneaking into the Demon Territory, they treated it as if they were going to shop for some clothes, not even the slightest nervousness could be sensed from them.

If Bhang Wusheng had to pick out one person who was being a little considerate, it would be Qian Jin. It felt like the others treated it as a field trip.

"We have to wait." Gomez Janes looked down at the demon girl in her arms and said, "We have to do it all together. We shouldn’t secretly ’eat’ him ourselves."

The veins on Qian Jin’s head bulged when he heard that. "I should be the one initiating it, shouldn’t I? Why does it sound like they are the ones who are in control?" He thought to himself.

"Qian Jin is not just skillful in these subjects. He is..." Bhang Wusheng continued where he left off in his deep voice, "also a powerful warrior."

No one objected to this claim. As an ordinary warrior, Qian Jin’s talent couldn’t be simply described as gifted. He was like the most talented warrior among all gifted people. He was the most powerful ordinary warrior in the history of warriors.

"Therefore, you guys can hide your identity using these rings." Bhang Wusheng shook his hand and the rings flew into the hands of everyone here like smart birds. "Then, you guys can follow Lucifer Lucy into the Demon Territory and act as her retinues."

No one objected to this plan. Even as the retinue of the princess, they would still be treated with high status.

As the retinue of the princess, they would be free to do whatever they wanted. As long as they didn’t commit any serious crimes, no demons would try to stop them.

With the identity as the retinues of the princess, they would go through fewer inspections as well. After all, not a lot of demons dared to offend the princess by examining her own retinues.

The chance of them being discovered was really low with this setup.

"Next, you guys will need to make this trip well-known by using Qian Jin’s skills." Bhang Wusheng looked at Qian Jin again and said, "You guys might not know this, but ordinary demons reacted to Qian Jin’s stories aggressively. They are all saying that a warrior like Qian Jin only appeared because of the support the Zence Empire gave to ordinary people."

Qian Jin sneered. "Support for ordinary warriors? Qian Family’s attitude pretty much summarized the attitude of the Zence Empire. The only reason why I’m where I am today is due to my masters who reside in Endless World and Four Seasons Valley. Also, the pressure that Qian Family give me couldn’t be undermined as well." He thought.

"Doesn’t matter what the truth is, the ordinary demons are creating a movement. They claimed that on top of Bloodline Demon Warriors winning against Bloodline Human Warriors, ordinary demon warriors can’t lose to ordinary human warriors either." Bhang Wusheng laughed. "Now, all the clans and different demons are all looking for talented demons."

Qian Jin understood Bhang Wusheng’s plan. Lucifer Lucy alone would catch a lot of attention. Then, as long as he demonstrated his abilities, he could cause a huge sensation.

"As long as there is a sensation..." Bhang Wusheng sneered, "I know the Bhang Family too well. They would invite you to their family and try to recruit you for sure. You guys would have an easy way in to..."

"Oh, on wonder." Zence Matten suddenly interrupted Bhang Wusheng’s speech. "It must be you then. I was wondering why Qian Jin’s fame got around so fast. His stories shouldn’t be this well know even if I was promoting it. I was wondering if people just like gossips more nowadays... so ..."

"That’s right." Bhang Wusheng smiled proudly. "Ever since I discovered Qian Jin’s abilities, I started planning this. At first, I was wondering why the promotion speed was so fast. Then, I discovered that other forces had the same idea as well. I soon discovered you."

Qian Jin didn’t realize that a lot of forces were using their networks around him until now.

"Also, Snake Emperor Pam Honzi." Admiration appeared in Whang Wusheng’s eyes as he praised. "I had to praise that poisonous snake. His reaction was just too fast and he must have been following Qian Jin’s news. After I sent out the news, he started doing the same thing the next day."

"Snake Emperor?" Qian Jin didn’t expect that Snake Emperor who was far in the Qian Region was free enough to participate in this matter.

"It would be hard..." Bhang Wusheng looked at Qian Jin and continued, "It would hard for you to not be famous. It would be hard for the demons to not be envious and jealous. They all couldn’t wait for a demon who can rival you to show up. If you appear there with the identity as a demon, you would be able to help me steal the stuff I want."

"Then..." Qian Jin rubbed his chin as he asked: "Where is my benefit?"

"Your benefit?" Bhang Wusheng laughed. "Do you think the demons won’t bring out rare material after they get to know your forging skills? I’m sure your friends here still lack top-tier items."

This test had a lot of danger to it.

It was also a huge opportunity.

Qian Jin would be able to get his hands on rare materials and he would also be able to inspect and memorize the terrains.

Although the cross-border merchants from Zence also could draw the maps of the demons in secret and get paid well from the Adventurer Union, there were a lot of places where merchants couldn’t go.

"If I can go there myself. If a big war between Zence and Lucifer broke out..." Qian Jin was moved. It was also really hard to collect rare materials that can be used to forge Soul Weapons by using the powers he had in his possession such as the Roll Family and different unions.

Saint! Ordinary warriors needed Soul Weapon to break through that threshold. Qian Jin was an ordinary warrior and needed a Soul Weapon. On top of that...

His lips twitched as he thought, "I would need three Soul Weapons instead of one."

Three Warrior Hearts would result in three Soul-Power. If every single Warrior Soul can become a saint, he would need to go through the process three times and need three Soul Weapons.

Qian Jin realized that his Warriors Hearts brought him a lot of power earlier one, but they would also act as barriers for him later on. However, if he broke through all of the barriers, how powerful would he be?

"How about it?"

Bhang Wusheng asked Qian Jin as he stared at him. Rather than describing his act as asking, it could be better described as provoking, or...

Duren Burg had lit up a cigarette sometime ago. He was smoking it comfortably as the light given off by it turned bright and dim.

Everyone was waiting for Qian Jin’s answer. The Wusheng Palace was no longer noisy, it was really quiet.

"Of course." Qian Jin looked at Bhang Wusheng. "Of course I’m going to go. Why are you even asking?"

First of all, there wasn’t a choice at all. If he said no, who knew what Bhang Wusheng was going to do. This was the test of this Bandit Group. If he tried to rebel, Lucifer Lucy would probably be the only one who could survive.

He had to go.

Looking at it from another perspective, this would be a journey rather than a test. It would be a journey on the mental and spiritual level.

With demons all around them and the threat of being exposed, it would be highly-stressful. In a situation where danger could come from anywhere, anyone would get uplifted spiritually if he or she survived.

If Qian Jin and his group got out the Demon Territory alive, it would be very beneficial for them all in the long-run let alone immediate increases in strength.

Bhang Wusheng nodded his head out of satisfaction. In his mind, if this young man didn’t even dare to go into the Demon Territory, his future prospects won’t be that good.

Demons? They were terrifying in the eyes of humans.

However, all the powerful warriors and influential figures in Zence had all been to the Demon Territory. Overbearing Qian Zhanxuan, Intelligent Snake Emperor Pam Honzi, and even the current emperor of Zence had all sneaked into the Demon Territory before.

"If you don’t understand your opponent, you will never defeat him." This saying was famous not only in Zence but in Lucifer and Barbarian as well.

Didn’t matter which race, the influential figures and powerful warriors had all sneaked into the territories of their enemies before in order to observe and learn.

Of course, all of them only sneaked in. Even after they returned, they never made it public. None of them entered enemies’ territories like how Qian Jin and his group was about to.

Being high-profile had its benefit as well as associated risks.

"Alright. You guys can prepare now. After you guys are done, notify me." Bhang Wusheng walked up the stairs and sat back down on his throne. "Be fast!" He reminded everyone.

After everyone walked out of the Wusheng Palace, they looked at each other. Duren Burg stretched his body and said, "Since we are going to the demons, we need to practice a lot. I will go onto that damn circular disk and train. I will try to get my Soul-Power before entering the Demon Territory. I want to have the ability to take out more demons if I have to.

Lucifer Lucy stared at Duren Burg who left "viciously". "This arrogant Hydra dares to say that he will kill my future subjects in front of me? The future Empress? I will kill you using my Eye of Destruction!" She thought.

Lucifer Lucy didn’t say anything to Cech Flet who was already walking away. She sensed a dense murderous spirit from him. She wasn’t sure if going to the demons would be a good thing for Cech Flet.

The Crown Prince, Princess Eunala, and... all that had happened in the past. To this mixed-blood warrior, this trip might be an end, and it also could be a new beginning. Cech Flet can’t kill the Crown Princess even if he was a Soul-Power Warrior, let alone that he was a peak Demon Extinguisher.

The Crown Prince might be useless, but the demons around him weren’t.

"This time, I won’t go with you." Gomez Jane stood by Qian Jin’s side as she said gently, "I don’t trust the bandits. It would be better for me to look after Roll Family."

Qian Jin felt a warmth in his heart. "Thank you."

"No need to thank me." Gomez Jane got close to Qian Jin, it felt like her beautiful face was right on Qian Jin’s. She murmured, "If you take back more woman, I will be troubled."

"This..." Qian Jin didn’t know how to answer this. All he could do was to sigh.

"I understand. Girls always want their men to be heroes and girls love heroes." She sighed, "Even if you don’t mess with them, they would come for you."

"I..." Qian Jin scratched his head and replied, "I will dodge them. You know about my speed."

A rare girly expression appeared on Gomez Jane’s face as she kissed Qian Jin on his face. She disappeared, but her voice was still resonating by Qian Jin’s ear. "I will truly be your woman when you come back."

Soon, Qian Jin was the only person who was standing in front of the Wusheng Palace. Although the trip sounded easy when everyone talked about it, they knew that they couldn’t underestimate it.

Qian Jin looked around and entered his room.

Hayen Brianna still had her metal mask on. She had been living in Qian Jin’s room for the last while and it didn’t seem like she would be moving out soon. Gomez Jane didn’t say anything and Qian Jin didn’t say anything as well since he spent most of his time outside.

When Qian Jin pushed open the door, Hayen Brianna turned around and took out the dinner that was still warm. She looked nothing like a bandit leader.

Qian Jin wasn’t too used to this change. As long as Hayen Brianna was in this room, she would act like his wife. But when she stepped out of the room, she would be back to her old self and be the leader of the old team.

"I’m going to be out for a while." Qian Jin started munching the food and said, "I won’t be back for a while."

"Eh, be careful." Hayen Brianna said as she looked at Qian Jin while resting her head on her arms. "I will wait for you to come back and lift up my mask."

"Cough..."

A rice got stuck to Qian Jin’s throat and he started coughing violently.

Hayen Brianna took out the towel that she already prepared and cleaned Qian Jin’s lips. "My mask can only be lifted by you. Do you want me to be alone for the rest of my life? Do you want to die alone? Shouldn’t I get the happiness that every woman should experience?"

"The food is delicious." Qian Jin stood up and said, "I need to sleep now."

"Same answer again?" Hayen Brianna complained as she cleaned that table. "If I get mad enough, I will assault you in your sleep. After you are truly my man, how can you get away then?"

Qian Jin’s legs shivered as he heard that. "She is definitely a bandit leader! She dares to say anything!"

"I won’t be worried then." Hayen Brianna continued to murmur to herself, "If you ran away, I will go to the Roll Family and look for you with our kids in me. Even if you don’t want me, you will want your kid."

Qian Jin sighed. "I can’t easily mess with a female bandit!"

After he closed the door to his bedroom, he took out the hat and covered his face. He wasn’t worried that Hayen Brianna would come in, the female bandit knew what she should do and shouldn’t do. When he was asleep these days, she never let anyone enter the room.

It was quiet as always in the Endless World.

Qian Jin looked at Enlak’s Warrior Energy House and thought, "I’m about to go the demons, and I should start preparing. I just got a Golden Warrior Heart, so it would be impossible for me to become a Soul-Power Warrior. I would need to use other ways to improve my strength."

It would either be condensing the other two Warrior Hearts into Golden Warrior Hearts or learn new fighting techniques.

More than warrior power was required for condensing Golden Warrior Hearts. the process required special inspirations. Before Qian Jin could get these inspirations, he could only learn new fighting techniques to improve his power.

Qian Jin had read over the training methods for the [Fake Soul]. Under the empowerment of the third Warrior Heart, its Warrior Seal was being condensed at an insane rate. It felt like he would be able to have the Warrior Seal for [Fake Soul] in a few days.

But it wasn’t enough.

Demon Territories. Demons were a bunch of creatures that worshipped power more than any other races. Therefore, Qian Jin had to become more powerful to create a sensation.

Zence’s New Generation Competition was close. After seeing Linguan Honzhe’s Soul-Power, Qian Jin was sure that Qian Wushan at least had that level of strength, otherwise, how would that Qian genius rival against talented Bloodline Warriors who were one to five years older than him?

If one could just stay behind closed doors and get powerful with just hard training, then Qian Jin would be doing that right now.

But that wasn’t the case.

Other than the teaching that his masters in Endless World and Four Seasons Valley offered him, he got this powerful through experience real death battles.

Demons. Even if Bhang Wusheng didn’t ask him to go to the Demons this time, he would try to sneak in there sometimes later himself.

"Kiddo, you came again?" Enlak smiled at him. "What do you need this time?"

"I need a lot of stuff."

Qian Jin lifted his hand and the warrior power in his palms cycled rapidly and created a huge pressure. Soon, the gravity under his hand doubled. But after that, he wasn’t able to increase the gravity didn’t matter how much warrior power he used.

"Using warrior power to control gravity?" Enlak asked as a light flashed by his eyes. "But it seems like this is not a complete fighting technique."

Qian Jin nodded. Enlak was right. This technique wasn’t complete.
