This time, Li Anlu didn't say anything.
Because in his view, it was indeed the case.
If Lord Qingyao hadn't spoken, he would not have come here to find Fang Yu.
A mere Demon Foot, isn't qualified to have him personally come to meet someone.
"You're aware now, strive well in the future, to properly repay Lord Qingyao's recognition of you. Additionally..."
Li Anlu flipped out a blood-colored Token from his hand.
On it were written the words "Blood Feather Token," three characters.
"This was obtained for you by Lord Qingyao. The Blood Feather Token, of which there are only three, is as authoritative as seeing the Demon Leader Lord Shu Bird Demon himself, allowing direct command over a Demon Body to carry out tasks for you."
"Remember, the Blood Feather Token can only be used once. Bring this Token to Thunder Square to find me, and whatever request you have, I will do my utmost to satisfy it. After use, the Token must be returned to me to be given back to Lord Shu Bird Demon. Therefore, you must grasp this opportunity well and think clearly about what you want me to do with this Token."
"After all, I am a Demon Body under a Demon Leader! There are many Demon Feet of the same rank and similar power under me, as well as myself, a high-ranking expert amongst Demon Bodies, to take direct action – just think of how great a force that is."
"Make good use of this power, and whatever you intend to do, you can accomplish with half the effort."
"Of course, if you encounter danger, it is also possible to seek my protection with this Token. With it in hand, even if you require me to clash with other Demon Leader forces, I wouldn't hesitate in the slightest."
"Of course, whatever happens afterwards, you can be sure no blame will fall upon me; you, the bearer of the Blood Feather Token, would be the source, and Lord Qingyao, who bestowed the Blood Feather Token upon you, would be the original sin. So, remember to think thrice before using this Token to do anything."
Once Li Anlu finished speaking, it left Fang Yu completely astonished.
Though it was only a few words, the preciousness of the Blood Feather Token was already evident.
Even an action against other Demon Leader forces could be justified – it was tantamount to a direct order from Lord Shu Bird Demon, simply not to be disobeyed.
Brother Qing... brought me an Amulet!
This Demon Lord, although can't protect me by my side all the time, if something happens, I can also directly use the Token to ask for his help.
Below a Demon Leader is a Demon Body, equal to the first speaker under a Demon Leader.
Of course, there must be more than one Demon Body under Lord Shu Bird Demon, but even so, it's a significant force.
But... if I have any issues, I can directly find Brother Qing, there's no need to specially utilize the Blood Feather Token to ask a Demon Body for help, right?
Could it be that Brother Qing is too busy and won't be free in the near future?
Or could it be... Brother Qing is afraid that the situation from before might recur?
Last time, during the confrontation with the Thousand Households' team, the Three Demons did send out a distress signal to Brother Qing, but nobody came to help from his end.
So, this Blood Feather Token is like a guarantee from Brother Qing, to prevent such a situation from leaving me unassisted?
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that it was a staged scene arranged by the high-levels of the Foolish Underworld, Fang Yu might really have worried about a mishap. After all, the ambush arranged by Wu Lvzhu came so suddenly, taking advantage of my information, and was executed quickly and ruthlessly, leaving no time to react.
If one were completely unaware and suddenly faced such a situation, like other low-ranking demons, they would just freeze in fright.
Of course, what actually would happen in practice is another matter, as he was still confident in real combat.
"Thank you to Lord Shu Bird Demon for the reward! Thank you to Lord Qingyao for the recognition! Thank you to the Demon Lord for the delivery of the Token!"
Received the Blood Feather Token with utmost respect, Fang Yu thanked thrice.
Li Anlu smiled and said, "Now that the item is safely delivered, I will take my leave first. There's no need to come to Thunder Square to find me on normal days, if there are tasks or specific meetings, I will arrange for someone to notify you."
Similar to Demon Feet, Demon Bodies have many subordinate Demon Feet under them - not every one of them is qualified to meet the Demon Lord in person.
Most of the time, Demon Feet are simply waiting for orders, and it's only at some demon gatherings that some favored Demon Feet are brought along to participate.
If it's a peripheral-type Demon Foot, then they really just toil hard, selling blood and flesh for the organization, and won't receive any special rewards.
Translated to human forces, such Demon Feet would most likely be given a name - the honest people.
They belong to those who work hard in silence, yet never see the light of day.
As for himself, he's considered someone who, thanks to Brother Qing's backing, managed to become somewhat familiar in the eyes of the big figures.
What follows will depend on his performance; for now, he is the type of newcomer who has the opportunity to enter the core circle.
Fang Yu was quite clear about his own position.
Having Brother Qing's support, even as a newly promoted Demon Foot, one is bound to receive greater respect from others.
"Blood brothers!"
As soon as Li Anlu left, Li Lan let loose, approaching with a grin.
"I heard that when you were just promoted to Demon Foot, you received many rewards..."
Fang Yu immediately understood.
He quickly responded,
"Indeed quite a few, items like Strange Flower Beans, Mingyan Beads and the like were given generously. I will send some to Lord Li Lan's residence on another day..."
"That would be too embarrassing!"
Li Lan promptly objected, seeming quite genuine in his refusal.
Fang Yu certainly was not oblivious.
"Far from it, Brother Li Lan is one of us, what's a small token from me? I've just been promoted to Demon Foot and will rely on Brother Li Lan for your support in the future."
Li Lan burst into laughter immediately, patting Fang Yu on the shoulder.
"Blood brother, rest assured, I can't speak for the Demon Body level, but at Demon Foot rank, I can still smooth things over and pull some strings. I'll kick things off by throwing a banquet and inviting some Demon Foot brothers; we can all get to know each other better. After all, we all work under Lord Shu Bird Demon, so being acquainted with a few more faces always helps."
Fang Yu didn't know how much of what this guy said was true, but he just smiled and agreed.
Though Li Lan wasn't particularly strong, merely at the Blood Demon level,
He was, after all, working for the Li Family and was Brother Qing's bodyguard; having access to demons, he must have some clout, and his networking was certainly much better than that of a typical Demon Foot.
After exchanging pleasantries, Li Lan finally waved his hand and left.
Fang Yu pondered for a moment before carefully storing the Blood Feather Token.
One Demon Foot could manage a large district.
Under a Demon Body, there are also many Demon Feet, and collectively, wiping out someone like him would be a matter of minutes.
Attacking the Foolish Underworld would probably be tough, as each Hall Master there is incredibly powerful, but causing destruction was definitely feasible.
Fang Yu hadn't thought about what to use the Blood Feather Token given by the Green Demon for, but without a doubt, this power was much stronger than his own combat abilities, a supercaliber external support.
"Lord Blood Demon."
Returning outside, Bie Huzi was still waiting in the same spot.
Curiosity was apparent on his face, but he didn't dare ask more.
Fang Yu naturally wouldn't tell him about the Blood Feather Token and simply said indirectly.
"Just now, one of those two people was a Demon Body."
Bie Huzi instantly widened his eyes, his breathing almost coming to a halt.
A Demon Body?!
That was a rank above Demon Foot, and just one level below the supreme Demon Leader!
Bie Huzi was dumbfounded; he hadn't expected that Lord Blood Demon, just promoted to Demon Foot, would have a Demon Body visiting him. What kind of prestige and background were needed to make this happen?
Immediately, Bie Huzi's admiration for Fang Yu surged like a boundless river, and the look in his eyes changed.
"Don't overthink it, the Demon Body Lord was just passing by to handle some affairs. We should also focus on handling our own duties well. Continue leading the way upfront, I am going to meet those who are ignorant of their limits."
How could Bie Huzi dare to say no?
He hastily led the way.
Although Fang Yu put it that way, the fact was a Demon Body had personally visited.
Did any other Demon Foot have such prestige?
Bie Huzi grew even more determined to stick with Fang Yu.
What if one day Fang Yu rose to become a Demon Body? He could ride the coattails and perhaps even become a playfully regarded Demon Foot himself?
