TBOUMTBDK Chapter 87

Chapter 87: Intercepted

Yún Xiá looked at these people, and his heart instantly plummeted to the bottom, even his hands started to feel cold.

Mo Jun Zhou had been holding his hand and didn’t let go, the strength of his grip made Yún Xiá regain some composure.

Mo Jun Zhou coldly looked at the people opposite them: “What’s the matter?”

The person who was obviously the leader sized them up, his expression somewhat frivolous, and without answering Mo Jun Zhou’s words, he directly said:

“Take them away.”

Mo Jun Zhou’s hand tightened, but he didn’t flare up, only saying: “Wasn’t the inspection supposed to be unnecessary?”

His words made everyone around them look over. Speaking to the head of the guard like that, wasn’t he afraid of being targeted? The most arrogant and powerful people in Jìn City were them.

The leader was also a little surprised, stopping in his tracks and saying in a scornful voice: “Even if we don’t check everyone, it doesn’t mean we can’t do routine searches. You’re thinking of not cooperating?”

The other guards stared at them intently, the pressure almost making them unable to lift their heads.

Yún Xiá whispered behind his ear: “Let me handle it.”

After speaking, he ignored Mo Jun Zhou’s obstruction and stepped forward, quickly adjusting his expression and saying with a smile to the leader: “Esteemed Sir, of course we will cooperate. We haven’t brought anything we shouldn’t have.”

The leader smirked: “Whether you’ve brought anything or not, we’ll know after a search. Why say so much? Feeling guilty? Take them away!”

Seeing that he was somewhat negotiable, Yún Xiá felt more at ease. Since they could talk, it meant that the other party most likely wasn’t targeting them.

He exchanged a glance with Mo Jun Zhou and was taken away by the entire squad.

Huái Yíng and the others were a few steps away from them, so they weren’t surrounded and could only watch helplessly as they were taken to the side.

“Senior brother, what do we do? They’ve been taken away!”

“It’s over, it’s over, are they coming for us? Did we really fall into their trap?”

Huái Yíng’s heart was also beating fast. He calmed himself down and said in a deep voice: “Don’t panic yet, it shouldn’t be. Those people are just ordinary guards. If they wanted to arrest someone, those few wouldn’t be enough. Such a rash appearance would only alert the enemy. It should just be a coincidence.”

“But, but if they search us, Yún Xiá’s disguise will be seen through…”

Yún Xiá and Mo Jun Zhou were led to the side. Yún Xiá knew that they wouldn’t just use their eyes to search people. They had magical artifacts that could break through people’s disguise techniques and other means of concealment, unless it was something extremely high-level, like the Demon Lord’s mask, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to escape.

This kind of method wasn’t usually used, but it definitely would be used these days. Even if they only used it casually, it would be a catastrophe for them.

To be honest, even Mo Jun Zhou didn’t quite know how to escape at this time. If it were his own method, he would choose to just fight.

But…

He turned his head to look at Yún Xiá.

Just when they were about a third of the way to the inspection point, Yún Xiá suddenly made a move.

He called out to the leader: “Um, Esteemed Sir, can I ask about the inspection procedures? How long, how long will it take?”

The leader turned around: “Why are you asking this? But I can tell you, doing the whole set will take about an hour.”

Yún Xiá immediately stopped in his tracks: “What? An hour? Esteemed Sir, please, can you not check me? Or you can just look at my storage bag, we really don’t have anything to check!”

The leader scoffed: “What, so eager to go to the Immortal Realm?”

Yún Xiá nodded frantically: “Yes, yes, you see, it was going to be our turn soon, but you suddenly pulled me out. I didn’t leave any time for it. I thought there wouldn’t be an inspection today.”

“Enough nonsense, do you think you have the chance to bargain here?”

“But, but you didn’t say it would take an hour! An hour, are you planning to check my ancestors up and down eighteen generations? I’m just an ordinary demon, there’s nothing to check.”

Yún Xiá said with a mournful face and a look of despair. The tone and expression were quite interesting, attracting the attention of the people around them.

“Oh? So eager to go outside to do what? This barrier was only opened recently, if there was something urgent, it would have been too late, right?” The leader slowly walked over, his eyes staring straight at Mo Jun Zhou as he passed by.

Ordinary people would have been frightened and unable to look directly at him under such a gaze, but Mo Jun Zhou just calmly returned his gaze, his face expressionless.

“Not bad, you have some guts.”

“He doesn’t have guts, he’s just a blockhead,” Yún Xiá hurriedly came over. “Esteemed Sir, listen to me, it’s precisely because the barrier was only opened recently that I’m in a hurry. To be honest, I think it’s better if this barrier wasn’t opened, if it wasn’t opened, I… cough cough, actually, I contacted someone outside a few days ago when the barrier just opened, and today, today is the last day we agreed on.”

His voice became weaker and weaker, his head lowered more and more, and his eyes became more and more erratic, looking very weak.

“Oh?”

Everyone noticed something was up.

The leader was clearly not a by-the-book person. He was quite interested in this matter, so he just stood there and talked to Yún Xiá, using the weapon in his hand to lift Yún Xiá’s chin.

This action made Mo Jun Zhou narrow his eyes.

“Then, then can I go over there and tell you?” Yún Xiá winked at the leader, obviously meaning to avoid Mo Jun Zhou.

The leader glanced back and forth between him and Mo Jun Zhou: “Can’t let him know?”

Yún Xiá became anxious: “Why did you say it directly!”

Mo Jun Zhou probably knew what he wanted to do, probably making up a story to get this leader to let them go. With the superb acting skills of Yún Xiá that he had seen, he wasn’t worried.

But…

“Hehehe.”

The leader laughed, saying wickedly: “Aren’t you two a couple?”

Yún Xiá hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: “Yes.”

“Then what can’t he know?”

The leader looked at Mo Jun Zhou, who was frowning and looking at Yún Xiá in confusion, as if he didn’t understand either.

Yún Xiá looked embarrassed, anxious, and helpless, putting his hands together behind his back and mouthing silently to the leader: “Please, Esteemed Sir, I beg you! He really can’t know!! Otherwise, I’m finished!”

Seeing him like this, the leader raised his eyebrows high to savor his expression. After a long while, he waved his hand with great mercy: “Take him over there.”

Several fully armed guards immediately grabbed Mo Jun Zhou’s arm and dragged him back a few steps.

Mo Jun Zhou immediately said angrily: “Let go! What are you doing! Yún… Yún Yún, what exactly do you want to say, why can’t I know!”

Yún Xiá hurriedly turned his head: “Don’t worry, I’ll tell you slowly when we get to the Immortal Realm.”

Then he smiled flatteringly at the leader: “Thank you, Esteemed Sir.”

The leader: “Don’t rush to thank me, I’m bored doing this crap every day. If you make me happy, maybe I’ll let you pass.”

Yún Xiá scratched his head and said: “Okay, okay, I’ll tell you directly. Actually, I also have someone outside.”

The leader raised an eyebrow, a little surprised: “You? You have that ability?”

Yún Xiá said proudly: “Esteemed Sir, don’t look at me like this, I’m very skilled at picking up men and women, hehe, even the Immortal Race people are the same.”

The leader was really surprised this time: “Don’t tell me that it’s an Immortal Race person.”

Yún Xiá pretended to be surprised: “How did you know! Amazing!”

“Go on, don’t flatter me,” the leader sized him up again. “I didn’t expect you to have such skills. Those Immortal Race people are all very aloof, and there’s a natural opposition between our two realms. How can you handle it under these conditions?”

Yún Xiá chuckled, revealing an expression that all men understood: “Well, opposition is relative. Isn’t it much better in recent years? And they’re aloof, but that’s just about saving face. As long as we give them enough face, put our own attitude low enough, and lick them happily, then use some tricks at the right time, it’s easy to get them.”

The leader: “Then this demon, he doesn’t seem easy to talk to. How did you win him over?”

“Of course, it’s different for everyone. I prescribe the right medicine. First, find out his temper and his preferences, and it’s best to find out what he values most, and then stab him to death, using your persistence and your patience to impress him. I tell you, once a person like him is moved, he will be devoted to you, it’s so great.”

The leader said with a smile: “Wouldn’t that be impossible to shake off?”

Yún Xiá looked proud: “Why shake him off? Don’t look at him like this, he can take care of people. He’s a fool, once he recognizes someone, he will never change in this life.”

The leader smiled happily: “That’s the best.”

“Hehe, yes.”

“Then who do you like more, him or that Immortal Race person?”

“Of course, I want both, I…”

Suddenly, an angry shout rang out behind him: “Didn’t you say that the Immortal Realm person is your dad!”

Yún Xiá shivered all over, sitting down on the ground in fright. He trembled as he looked back, only to see Mo Jun Zhou standing three steps away, his face flushed with anger, and at the same time, there was a deep look of hurt on his face.

At some point, many people had gathered around him, all looking at him as if they were watching a good show, everyone’s faces filled with the excitement of eating melons.

“Oh my god, his dad? I never expected him to say it was his dad, it would be better to say it was his brother.”

“Is he still planning to let them meet? No way, how will he explain it? Are the aloof Immortal Realm people so easy to fool?”

“This young man is also unlucky. If he hadn’t been pulled out today, he probably could have continued to enjoy the best of both worlds.”

The words of the onlookers made Yún Xiá’s face even more horrified. He quickly jumped up and ran over to hug Mo Jun Zhou: “It’s not, it’s not, listen to me…”

Mo Jun Zhou’s face changed: “You’ve been lying to me all along? I trusted you so much, and I’ve always been good to you, fulfilling your every request, but you’re just using me like a monkey?”

“How could I? I really like you!”

Mo Jun Zhou pushed him away: “Do you think I’ll still believe you? I will be devoted to one person, but that can’t be to someone who deceives me like this!”

The onlookers: “Wow! How heartbroken he must be. No matter how honest a person is, they won’t continue to love someone who humiliates them like this.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, this young man is too much.”

“That’s right, that’s right, this kind of person who has a foot in two boats should be dragged to feed the magical beasts, lest he harm others in the future.”

Yún Xiá’s face flushed red from what others said. He shouted loudly at the crowd: “What’s it got to do with you? Shut up!”

Then he looked at Mo Jun Zhou: “In that case, let’s break up. Do you think I can’t live without you!”

The onlookers: “Wow! He even has the nerve to say break up first! That handsome guy in black, don’t try to salvage it, he’s not worth it.”

Mo Jun Zhou looked at him in shock: “What did you say?”
