Gods: Start with Goblins
Chapter 711 Golden Bottle
The matter of the Space-Time Plank Road concerns the great plan of the demon clan, and Luo Dan's delay is indeed puzzling. He pondered for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from outside the door, and then Luo Dan's figure appeared in his sight.
When Pei Sheng saw Luo Dan coming back, he heaved a sigh of relief, as if a huge rock had fallen to the ground. He hurriedly stepped forward, opened the door, and let Luo Dan in. Luo Dan's appearance eased the tense atmosphere a little.
"Luo Dan, you're finally back." Pei Sheng's tone was somewhat reproachful, but more of a relief. "Everyone is waiting for you. The matter of the Space-Time Plank Road cannot be delayed. Why are you so reluctant to go there?"
Luo Dan smiled slightly, and there was a subtle hint of deep meaning in his eyes. "Some things need time to deal with. But now that I'm back, we can start discussing business." His voice was calm and firm, as if everything was under control.
Elder Tianji was observing Luo Dan silently. Although he could not see anything unusual on the surface, his keen intuition told him that Luo Dan seemed to be hiding some secrets. He coughed lightly and slowly said, "Luo Dan, did you gain or discover anything during your trip this time?"
Luo Dan's eyes flickered when he heard this, as if he was weighing what to say. After a moment, he slowly spoke: "There are indeed some discoveries, but we will discuss these things in detail later. Now, let's solve the problem of the space-time plank road first."
Elder Tianji nodded and said nothing more. He knew that since Luo Dan was back, everything would have an answer. However, he vaguely felt that this matter might not be as simple as it seemed.
With the return of Luo Dan, the atmosphere in the Demon Clan Castle became tense and orderly again. Everyone sat around the round table and began to discuss the specific matters of the Space-Time Plank Road. Elder Tianji was silently observing everyone on the side. In his mind, he had begun to brew one plan after another to deal with any possible changes.
In a secret room in the Demon Clan Castle, the dim light flickered, illuminating two solemn faces. Elder Tianji sat at an ancient stone table, staring sharply at Luo Dan opposite him, as if he wanted to see through his thoughts.
"Your original body should not have stayed in the room during this period. You should have gone to other places." Elder Tianji's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to hit Luo Dan's heart. "Where on earth have you been? Or where have you been?"
Luo Dan heard this and nodded slightly, without showing too much surprise on his face. He seemed to have expected Elder Tianji to ask this question and had prepared a response. "I went to some necessary places and handled some necessary things." His answer was vague and general, and he obviously did not intend to reveal too many details.
Elder Tianji narrowed his eyes, obviously not satisfied with Luo Dan's answer. "You are quite agile, how could I not have noticed it before! But it just so happens that I also want to discuss the matter of going to Linjie with everyone. We will set off tomorrow. It's quite lively outside today. I'm sure you have heard about the disappearance of the human race recently!"
At this point, Elder Tianji's tone became serious. He knew that the disappearance of the human race had caused a stir among the entire demon race, and the critical trip was a major event concerning the future of the demon race. He had to make sure everything was under control.
Luo Dan was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then he slowly said: "In order to ensure everyone's safety, everyone should stay in the post station for a while and don't think about going out."
Elder Tianji couldn't help but frown at this. He felt that there was something mysterious in Luo Dan's words, as if he was deliberately stalling for time. "Are you planning to delay us again?" Elder Tianji said with a hint of displeasure, "We are not that easy to fool!"
Facing the threat from Elder Tianji, Luo Dan seemed unusually calm. He smiled slightly, and his eyes revealed an unfathomable light. "I, Luo Dan, have always acted in an upright manner. What I said naturally has my reasons. You just need to follow my arrangements, and I promise that everything will go smoothly."
Elder Tianji looked at Luo Dan, still full of doubts. But he knew that now was not the time to ask questions. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Well, since you said so, we will believe you for now. However, Luo Dan, I hope you can understand that our fates are closely linked. If you have any plans or discoveries, you must tell us in time."
Luo Dan nodded to show his understanding. He knew that Elder Tianji's concerns were not groundless. But he also had his own difficulties and plans, and now was not the time to reveal them.
As the conversation between the two ended, the atmosphere in the secret room became heavy and depressing again. They all knew that the journey to the critical point was full of unknowns and dangers. But no matter what, they had to move forward bravely and fight for the future of the demon clan.
In the spacious hall of the Demon Clan Castle, the lights were dim and warm, but it was hard to dispel the tension in the air. Luo Dan and Elder Tian Ji stood opposite each other, and their conversation was full of gunpowder, as if it was about to explode.
"Why would I lie to you? It seems like lying to you wouldn't do me any good." Luo Dan's tone was relaxed, even a little teasing. There was a cunning light flashing in his eyes, as if he was mocking Elder Tianji's groundless suspicion.
Elder Tianji frowned upon hearing this. He knew that what Luo Dan said made sense, but the doubts in his heart grew like weeds and were difficult to calm down. "If you are not afraid, then go to the city woman now!" His words were somewhat provocative, trying to provoke Luo Dan and see what he really thought.
However, Luo Dan just smiled slightly, as if he saw through Elder Tianji's plan. "Haha, go to the city woman? How difficult is that? But before that, I want to ask you, what exactly are you dissatisfied with me for? Why are you always so aggressive?"
Elder Tianji was choked by Luo Dan's question and was speechless. He left with his sleeves swung, feeling annoyed. He knew that the contest between him and Luo Dan was never a simple argument of words.
When Luo Dan appeared in the sight of several sects, the originally silent hall suddenly became noisy. Representatives from several sects stood up and came to Luo Dan, surrounding him.
"You finally showed up. We all wanted to find you!" A sect representative said with some dissatisfaction in his tone. His eyes were fixed on Luo Dan, as if he wanted to see through him.
"What do you think of the current situation?" Another sect representative also spoke up, his voice was deep and powerful, revealing his expectations and doubts about Luo Dan. "Don't think of getting away with it, we are not fools!" Another sect representative added, his tone was a bit sarcastic, and he was obviously dissatisfied with Luo Dan's previous disappearance and current attitude.
Facing the questioning of the crowd, Luo Dan seemed unusually calm. He smiled slightly and swept his eyes over the crowd, as if he wanted to see through their thoughts. "Of course I know you are not stupid, otherwise you wouldn't be standing here waiting in vain." There was a hint of ridicule in his words, but it also revealed his recognition and respect for everyone.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic." Luo Dan changed the subject and his expression became serious. "The current situation is indeed complicated, but it is not without a solution. I have some ideas, but before that, I need to understand your views and attitudes on this matter."
Everyone started talking and expressed their opinions. The hall became lively again, but this time, it was full of discussion and cooperation. Luo Dan listened quietly, nodding or interrupting occasionally. He already had a preliminary plan in his mind. He knew that as long as everyone could unite as one, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.
In the secret meeting room of the Demon Clan Castle, the dim lights flickered, illuminating solemn and nervous faces. Luo Dan stood in the center of the conference table, his eyes swept over everyone present, his tone was serious and concerned.
"I came here today to tell you about the situation. In fact, you have all seen the current crisis." Luo Dan's voice echoed in the silent conference room, and every word seemed to hit everyone's heart. "You are easily exposed like this, so I brought this to you."
As he spoke, Luo Dan pulled out a bloody monster skin from his bosom and placed it heavily on the conference table. The fur on the skin was still stained with blood, and it was obviously a prey that had just been hunted. Seeing this bloody scene, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, secretly thanking themselves for not offending Luo Dan, otherwise such a fate would be too miserable.
"This is the skin of a demon beast, and it's pure!" Luo Dan said with a hint of pride, "When you put it on, you can better hide your aura and avoid being discovered by the enemy."
Hearing this, everyone gathered around and carefully observed the bloody monster skin. They had to admire Luo Dan's ability to get such a pure monster skin. In fact, this skin was obtained by Luo Dan from the half-human, half-demon. He originally planned to use these skins to do something, and now they can come in handy.
"Thank you very much!" A sect representative spoke first, with a hint of gratitude and admiration in his voice. Other sect representatives also echoed and expressed their appreciation for Luo Dan's generosity and wisdom.

After getting the answers they wanted, several sect representatives turned around and left the meeting room, ready to go back and prepare to deal with the upcoming crisis. Luo Dan looked at their backs, a deep light flashed in his eyes, and then he calmly withdrew his gaze.
"In the next period of time, I will set up a barrier in the room." Luo Dan suddenly said, "You can tell others that I need to retreat and recuperate. Don't disturb me during this period of time."
When Pei Sheng heard Luo Dan's words, his eyes instantly widened, as if he couldn't believe his ears. "You still want to leave?" He exclaimed, his tone full of confusion and worry.
Luo Dan smiled slightly, looking at Pei Sheng with eyes full of trust and determination. "Yes, I still have some things to deal with. But don't worry, I will be back as soon as possible. During this time, you just do as I say and protect everyone's safety."
Although Pei Sheng was filled with reluctance and worry, he knew that Luo Dan's decisions were always well thought out. He nodded, indicating that he would follow Luo Dan's instructions. Then, he watched Luo Dan leave the meeting room, silently praying in his heart that Luo Dan would return safely.
Deep inside the Demon Clan Castle, in a room with simple decoration but an extraordinary atmosphere, Pei Sheng and Luo Dan stood face to face. Pei Sheng's eyes were full of confusion and anxiety, and his words were filled with a bit of blame and helplessness: "You left such a big mess for me to clean up, and now you want to leave? What on earth are you going to do? Tell me so that I can have an explanation."
Luo Dan's eyes became deep when he heard this. He seemed to be thinking about something. After a moment, he slowly spoke: "I have already told you about this matter. Why don't you believe it? I want to go to the City Lord's Mansion to test the demons. They have been restless recently. I think they have ulterior motives and are not easy to deal with!"
Pei Sheng listened to Luo Dan's explanation, his brows still furrowed, but the anxiety in his eyes eased a little. He knew that Luo Dan was always cautious and would not make such a decision without reason. However, he couldn't help but speak again: "What if there is any danger when you go? Have you considered the consequences?"
Luo Dan smiled slightly, his eyes revealing determination and confidence. "I know what I am doing, don't worry. Besides, I kept you because you are capable of handling things here. I believe in you, just like you believe in me."
After saying this, Luo Dan's body suddenly became blurry, as if wrapped in a layer of light mist. Then, he disappeared from the spot, leaving only a trace of residual image and Pei Sheng's astonished eyes.
Pei Sheng looked at Luo Dan's back as he left, feeling mixed emotions. He knew that what Luo Dan said made sense, and the recent behavior of the demons was indeed disturbing. Moreover, since Luo Dan chose to go to the City Lord's Mansion to test him, his decision must have been well thought out. Thinking of this, Pei Sheng couldn't help but sigh, and turned around to devote himself to the tedious affairs.
At the same time, in the meeting room of the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord was discussing a series of recent events with several of his subordinates. Their faces were full of seriousness and worry, as if they had sensed the coming storm.
"We haven't asked which tribe that great man came from, and we don't know what incarnation he is." One of them said cautiously, with a hint of uneasiness in his voice, "Do you think this demon is fake?"
Upon hearing this, the city lord shook his head, his eyes revealing determination and affirmation. (End of this chapter)
