My Master Disconnected Yet Again

The 180 degree change in the thinking of these demons actually had a little do with Rabbit, the new Demon Monarch. And the reason was her being timid! After the demons from the western forests were trapped, Rabbit was rather happy at first, but she slowly became aware of the subsequent problem it brought. Although she had Great Immortal backing her up now and she need not be afraid that those big demons would escape the array formation and get even with her…

But the future remains uncertain, if Great Immortal were to leave in the future and they put all the blame onto her, what would she do? Even if her cultivation level had risen by then, she still wouldn’t be able to beat them as a lone rabbit.

All of them were high level demons, let’s not mention the dozens of tenth level ones, the key was that there were demon monarchs at the eleventh and twelfth level. As a rabbit at the bottom of the demon realm, she could not sleep for nights, even distracted from cultivation practice. In addition, her comrades had been brought to experience real combat, after living in fear and having nightmares for an entire month, Rabbit finally could not hold back and moved with her little stool to the borders of the western forest and sat beside the sword array, beginning to brainwash… no, admonish those demons with sincere words.

“Let me tell all of you, the level of Great Immortal’s cultivation is something that you cannot even imagine, give up! Wolf Monarch is an example for you.”

“Let me tell all of you, Great Immortal has been merciful to you all this time, do you know what happened to the previous bunch of demons that offended him? Gone! Not just killed, there weren’t even any remains left.” Everything was served on the table.

“Let me tell all of you, Great Immortal hates demons eating humans the most, that’s why I become the demon monarch. If you all were to switch to a vegetarian diet now, he might let you keep your life.”

“Let me tell all of you, as demons, we mustn’t be too so hot-tempered, if there’s a problem, eat a carrot and calm down. Think about it, as long as you’re alive, everything else is not a big deal!”

“Let me tell all of you, you’ve been trapped in for long, I know all of you are hungry. As a demon myself, my heart aches for all of you too. I can’t do anything else but I can definitely provide enough carrots! If you prefer grass I can pull out some for all of you.”

“Let me tell all of you, how wonderful is it to be a follower of Great Immortal? Do you see all these demon cores? They’re Great Immortal’s rewards to me, one a day, yes! You did not hear wrongly, it is one a day, as long as you’re obedient!”

“Let me tell all of you, though I am almost reaching the tenth-level now, two years ago, I was only a seventh-level rabbit! It’s all thanks to Great Immortal that I could rise through the levels so quickly.”

“Let me tell all of you, Great Immortal said that if demons ate humans, we become filled with bloody grievous energy, even if we are able to improve our cultivation in the short run, but after immortal ascension, we will end up being struck to death by divine lightning. Think of why there hasn’t been any demons successfully ascending? It’s all because of eating humans!”

“Let me tell all of you…”

The demonfolk ignored her at first, but slowly, the more she shared, somehow there were a few demons who believed her, together with Lonemoon’s intentional cooperation, more demons believed her words, Besides, as Rabbit would send them carrots, vegetables and grass occasionally, more demons were increasingly bought over and began to accept Rabbit as a demon monarch, even the twelfth level Panther Monarch and Lion Monarch began to be courteous towards Rabbit.

Such recognition remained even after the sword array was removed, Rabbit, the demon monarch who wasn’t even a tenth level, surprisingly earned the acknowledgment of all the demons and became a demon monarch of an area, true to her name, and she even managed to do so through bragging.

Five years later, Fatty who was used to being beaten up, could already hold his own against the offense from an eleventh level demon monarch, his sword techniques had also seen a solid improvement. Though at the most, he could only be considered a body… ah bleh! blend of a Five Element cultivator and a sword cultivator, but at least he could last in a battle. Mm, he’s definitely not a body cultivator.

Lonemoon then canceled the daily activity of the demons beating up Fatty, then brought him back to the Demon Palace and threw him back in the sword array. He kept guard outside, allowing him to get knocked around inside.

Yet, with the chattering demons that would always surround them suddenly gone, and also missing Rabbit’s brain-washing words, it somehow felt like something was missing.

Hence… he locked Rabbit in too.

Rabbit: “…” Damn it!

(ಥ_ಥ)

Perhaps due to the having the foundation to bear beatings, Fatty made it past the second level very quickly and successful entered the third level, then… he was stuck again!

However, this time, Lonemoon did not shower Fatty with his icy cold stares, but changed his training companions from the demons, to himself, personally beat… no, it’s spoon-feeding him with strikes.

Fatty’s face that was as fat as a pig head never recovered. With a pig face, he continued to practice his sword for more than years, Fatty used action to prove that, constitutions that could not master sword techniques did exist.

Even after Rabbit successfully ascended to the eleventh level and made it past eight levels in the sword array, he was still at the fifth level.

Hence when Fatty finally broke through the fifth level in the sword array, Lonemoon did not force him to continue with the sixth level, instead he removed the sword array. Then formally began with imparting him the skills involving pills, talismans, arrays, weapons and spirit beasts. Though level five in a sword array could be nothing to a sword cultivator, but for Fatty, it ought to be enough for him to hold off a sword cultivator’s attack.

Lonemoon carved some five elements reversal formation, arrays spells and talismans spells onto jade slips and handed them to Fatty. Whereas for expensive, time-consuming technical skills like core cultivation that cannot be used in actual battle, they could learn at the end. As for beast control, all the demons in Southern Land knew that he was a best bud of the Rabbit Monarch, seems like there was no need to master that too. That left them with weapon refinement, Chef was more familiar with that.

He’d intended to get Chef to carve a legacy about weapon refinement, but he did not manage to find him in the kitchen. He then remembered that it seemed like he hadn’t seen the two rascals in a long time. Instinctively using his divine perception, he swept across the entire demon palace but did not sense any familiar aura.

Where were they?!

He searched the back palace, still no one, he could only go to Rabbit.

“Great Immortal Shen?” Rabbit faltered for a moment before realizing that he was referring to the other two Great Immortals. “They… aren’t they having their meal at the back palace?”

“I’ve just searched there, there’s no one.” Lonemoon’s face darkened, accurately speaking, they weren’t in the entire demon palace. “Did they secretly sneak out to find trouble again?”

“That, I don’t know…” Rabbit shook her head. “But about four hours ago, I saw the two Great Immortals having tea in the pavilion beside the front palace, perhaps they…”

Before he could finish, Lonemoon had already turned around and walking towards the front palace. Sure enough, from far he could already see two familiar figures sitting inside, one chewing on pastries, the other pouring tea, only thing was they weren’t speaking, their expressions were slightly tense, which made them seem a little unnatural.

Lonemoon paused in his steps, his face instantly turning as dark as the bottom of a pot.

“Ah, aren’t the two great immortals here?” Rabbit who followed behind him said instinctively. “I’ve told you Great Immortal, you don’t…”

He had yet to finish his sentence when Lonemoon waved his hand, a stream of Spirit Qi swept over. Flashing out a white light, the two people in the pavilion instantly became two pieces of white paper shaped like human figures, swaying and falling through the air, the teapot that was held in Chef’s hand earlier dropped to table, water splashed in all directions.

The next moment…

A furious roar sounded throughout the entire Demon Palace.

“I’m going to break the legs of those two wastrels!”

Rabbit: “…”
