Keyboard Immortal

“What?” The women were all shocked.

Zu An explained, “I never said anything the entire time. Even though speaking foris a reasonable excuse, the monsters are cunning. How could they just trust us that easily? He never left the entire tafter leading us up to the cave, and only went away when he sawtake out the cave’s jade pendant. That means he's already suspicious.”

“Then we should catch him and kill him!” Pei Mianman exclaimed, preparing to leave. This was the Monster World, after all. If they were exposed, it was easy to imagine the end they would face.

Zu An grabbed her and said, “Don’t be too hasty. Killing him would be easy, but that would only draw more attention from the other monsters. After all, it would be quite difficult for us to explain the sudden disappearance of a trusted aide.”

“But are we supposed to not do anything…” Xie Daoyun was a bit worried.

Zu An comforted them and said, “Don’t worry, he's only a bit suspicious. My opening the door already eliminated sof his suspicion. If he wants to suspect us, then so be it. I have more important things to take care of.”

“Are you talking about the monster language?” Jiang Luofu asked.

Zu An nodded. “Those monsters spoke our language in our world, which madecareless, thinking that their language was the sas ours. We have to learn the monster language, or else we can’t do anything. On top of that, not only do we need to learn the True Demon race's language, we also need the common language of the monsters. It might be different.”

Everyone else nodded. If their language was different, they could only stay inside the cave all day. They wouldn’t have any ability to investigate anything.

All of them looked at Suolun Shi and said, “We’ll be troubling the princess to teach us.”Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

Suolun Shi blushed. “I will naturally do my best, but learning a language isn’t something you can do in a short amount of time. We might not have that much time.”

“It’s fine, we’ll learn as much as we can.” Zu An walked over to Suolun Shi’s side and patted her shoulder.

As expected, there was no skill trigger to learn her language after making contact with her. It seemed that the Keyboard System was a bit willful and couldn't distinguish every skill. Or perhaps language wasn’t considered a skill.

When she felt the heat coming from Zu An’s hand, Suolun Shi blushed, but she didn’t dare to show anything strange in front of the others. She coughed lightly and began to teach them the Demon race’s ancient language.

Yun Yuqing learned the fastest, because she was also from the Demon race and had the corresponding language background. Meanwhile, Zu An was the second fastest. The other women weren’t too slow either, since they were all geniuses. Their ability to learn was far greater than that of the average person.

But no matter how fast they were, something like a language couldn't be learned perfectly in a short amount of time. All of them only learned sof the very basics of daily conversation along the lines of ‘how are you, I’m fine, and you’. They were still far from being able to converse regularly with the monster natives.

In that instant, Zu An felt as if he had returned to his previous world’s middle school, when he was being tormented by foreign language classes.

While everyone was at their wits’ end, Zu An suddenly noticed something. He looked outside the cave and said, “There are monsters coming, and there are quite a few of them.”

The women immediately grew nervous. They quickly got up and arrived at the entrance.

“Young master, the elders heard that you were injured, so they cto see your respected self with treatment medicine,” Adiljan said with a beaming smile.

The women exchanged a look. With their wits, they naturally didn't believe him. It was as Ah Zu expected, after all. This Adiljan had grown suspicious and brought the clan elders to investigate. They wanted to see if he was an imposter or not. They all felt an indescribable sense of danger. There were so many True Demons outside, and they didn’t know how strong those elders were either.

If the True Demons discovered that Zu An was fake, they would immediately attack him. Even though big brother Zu’s cultivation was high, the monsters of this world weren’t restricted by the world barrier. It was hard to say who would win in a fight. Even if big brother Zu won, it would still draw the attention of all of the monsters in the underground city. Then, if the Monster Lord cwith endless reinforcements, there would only be destruction awaiting the group.

“Big brother Zu, how about I tell them that you don’t feel too well and that you’ve already turned in to get srest, and for them to ca different day?” Suolun Shi quickly asked. She figured that a bit more twould allow big brother Zu to learn more of the monster language.

Zu An shook his head. He moved toward the cave entrance and said, “They cwith a lot of people. If we didn’t meet them, that would only confirm their suspicions. That wouldn't be favorable for us at all.”

These people were only suspicious of them, so that was why the forces they had brought weren’t absurdly strong. If they were sure that he was an imposter, they definitely wouldn’t have cwith only this many people.

“But big brother Zu, you…” Princess Suolun was worried. Zu An hadn’t learned the monster language, so he would easily end up being exposed.

However, Zu An walked out before she even finished speaking. The women quickly followed him out. The situation was already like this, so at this point, they could only follow big brother Zu. They would go through life and death together.

…

When they left the cave dwelling, they were surrounded by more than ten True Demons. The ones in front clearly weren't young. Judging from how Adiljan was currying favor from them, these were most likely the True Demon elders he'd been talking about.

The women were a bit uneasy because they couldn't sense the real cultivation ranks of these elders at all. The latter were clearly much stronger than they were.

They were starting to feel despair, but when they remembered that Zu An was with them, they immediately felt at ease. An ordinary person would be completely helpless in these situations, but Ah Zu was a man who created miracles.

When he saw them cout, Adiljan had a confused expression. He was clearly surprised, but he quickly hid it. He quickly bowed toward Zu An’s group. “I greet the young master!”

The elders also cupped their hands toward Zu An.

But he reacted quickly. These people’s lives in the underground city were a bit too difficult, and they didn’t even have food to eat. They relied on fasting pills to alleviate their hunger. Donaire frequently gave them fresh meat and all sorts of ki stones, so it would be more strange if they didn’t pamper him.

The leader said, “I heard that the young master was injured from his battle against the natives. We were wondering if it was serious.” He stared at Zu An’s neck while speaking.

Suolun Shi wanted to translate through ki, but Zu An stopped her. These True Demon elders were too strong. With Suolun Shi’s cultivation, ki transmissions likely wouldn't escape their notice. Suolun Shi naturally understood that as well, so she could only look at him with worry. Even though she had taught him sbasics, it was far from enough for her to understand what this elder was saying.

But Zu An had been in all kinds of dangerous situations, so he didn’t panic. Judging from the look in his eyes, he immediately guessed roughly what the elder was saying. As such, he grunted ambiguously, but he also waved his hand as if to gesture that he was fine.

The leader gave Adiljan a look. When he remembered the suspicions the latter had raised earlier, the look in his eyes becdoubtful too. “The young master is connected to the safety of countless people, so you cannot be careless. Let third brother look after your injuries.”

Then, with a look, another elder walked toward Zu An with a smile. “This old physician will take a look.”

The women were all really nervous. Even though they had helped Zu An apply sbindings to cover up his 'wound', how could it escape the elder's detection up close? They were all incredibly nervous. They were waiting for Zu An’s signal to go all out.

Even Adiljan couldn't help but swallow with difficulty. If there really was something wrong, he would earn a great achievement. But if there was nothing wrong with Donaire, he would be in big trouble.

Zu An secretly made a gesture to tell the women not to act blindly without thinking. Then, he took the initiative to walk toward the elders. His action made the True Demon elders a bit nervous; they clenched their fists inside their sleeves as they prepared to attack at any time.

But Zu An didn’t do anything strange. Instead, he walked straight up to Adiljan and took the jade strip from his waist. He gave it a look, then handed it to Suolun Shi.

Then, he said in the True Demon language, “Why do I feel as if you aren’t here to visit me, but instead to violently criticize me?”
