Of course, when encountering individuals with keen perception, it's still quite likely to be noticed, like the Demon Cat just now.

Using more covert methods again, the situation in the neighboring courtyard was fully explored, and two demons were discovered in succession, one Dog Demon and one Fox Demon.

Overall, the courtyard contained a large amount of beast skins, teeth, and other parts of Demon Beasts, all of which could be sold for use by Human Race Cultivators.

Shen Wang teased, "Why do I feel like these Demon Race are recycling waste? They take out these skins and bones, which aren't suitable to eat, and sell them to exchange for edible elixirs and even flesh and blood."

"It should be like this. I've heard that some smarter Demon Beasts will sell these things to exchange for cultivation resources."

Silver Moon nodded, "Although I haven't personally caught any, the Demon Suppression Department has records, and such existences are very cautious and secretive, generally not giving chances."

Shen Wang listened with fascination and said, "Seems like we've got lucky to stumble upon this."

Silver Moon nodded, "Now I understand why they disguise themselves as different people to sell things. They have too much material to handle, which easily arouses suspicion, so they have to sell them separately."

"Like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, let's see if there's a chance to take them down this time."

Shen Wang stroked his chin. These guys have been dealing with things for more than just a day or two, accumulating no small amount of resources. If there's a chance, he won't hesitate.

"We must be careful. These guys haven't infiltrated for a short time. There might be some formidable individuals, and there might even be Human Race cultivators colluding with them."

Silver Moon said solemnly.

"Probably not. If they were colluding with humans, there shouldn't be a need to secretly sell; they could just let the humans handle it, which would be safer."

Shen Wang thought for a moment and felt that this possibility was small.

"There should be some collusion with people, otherwise, they wouldn't be staying here, but it's possible that the person doesn't even know they are demons."

Silver Moon nodded.

"Right, for now, let's walk and observe."

Shen Wang nodded. As long as they weren't discovered, they held the initiative.

He continued to investigate when a shifty-eyed individual approached, looked around, and directly entered the courtyard.

"It's that guy!"

Shen Wang recognized him; wasn't this the peddler from earlier? Indeed, he's with these guys.

Under his surveillance, the peddler turned into a weasel upon entering the courtyard, speaking human words: "Skins are getting harder to sell!"

"Skins require processing, not every cultivator knows how, so naturally, they are not as easy to sell as finished products."

The Fox Demon came out, speaking in a man's voice.

"How much longer do we have to sell here? It's so boring."

The Demon Cat lazily walked out.

"We cannot decide that; we must wait for the Emperor's decision."

The Weasel carried the things toward the Dog Demon: "Old Huang, register today's sales, and later we should have some fun."

"Don't have too much interaction with Human women, or you might slip up."

The Dog Demon lying at the door glanced at the Weasel, took out a booklet, and registered like a human would.

"I'm not looking for formidable Female Cultivators, they won't notice."

The Weasel laughed, completely unconcerned.

This made Shen Wang frown slightly. He had slept with Female Demons before, but hearing demons sleep with women still made him uncomfortable.

Of course, this feeling passed in an instant. He had no need to meddle in such matters, and he began to focus on the Emperor mentioned by these demons.

If there was no accident, there was even a Demon Emperor leading them, clearly, he couldn't act rashly.

At this moment, he wasn't afraid of one Demon Emperor, but he was worried about pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, provoking a whole group of demons.

"Yueyue, with a Demon Emperor level leader, let's not act for now. If anyone is to act, let others handle it."

Shen Wang made a decision.

"Should we let the Demon Suppression Department intervene?"

Silver Moon inquired.

"Since it's the Hundred Refining Sect's territory, let their people handle it."

Shen Wang shook his head. He only needed to remind the Hundred Refining Sect, no need to involve the Demon Suppression Department.

"Got it."

Silver Moon nodded and then added, "One more thing, lately, when cultivating, I feel the mana circulation is somewhat obstructed."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wang hurriedly grabbed Silver Moon's hand for a thorough inspection, then smiled: "You're pregnant, the developing embryo is absorbing your energy."

"Ah!"

Silver Moon was momentarily stunned, then showed a look of surprise: "That soon?"

She knew that Golden Core Cultivators having offspring was relatively harder than those with lower cultivation.

Being with this man for only half a month and already having a child was indeed a bit unexpected for her.

"You need to take good care of yourself, don't let the little one slip away."

Shen Wang said with a full smile.

"Hmm."

Silver Moon nodded, instinctively touching her belly, feeling a bit complicated: "I never thought I'd have a child; I thought I'd never have children."

"That's not necessarily true."

Shen Wang embraced Silver Moon: "Next, I'll handle the goods. You should rest for a while, since it's the first time, you need to adjust."

"Okay, be careful."

Silver Moon nodded. This indeed was her first time, and she was still a bit flustered inside, unsure how to cope with the arrival of this new life.

Shen Wang found Silver Moon's little expression quite amusing.

It seems in a couple of days, it might be good to take her back to meet with other sisters and exchange some thoughts.

Accompanying Silver Moon until evening, they didn't see the Emperor mentioned by those demons.

The next day, Shen Wang first handled a batch of goods, and then, as usual, entered the Inner Sect to continue studying the Path of Artifact Refining.

After a long time, when he came out of the Library Pavilion, he saw a group of somewhat unfamiliar faces.

He didn't look much and proceeded to the Array Refining Pavilion, intending to talk to Liu Da Rong about the demon affairs.

Outside the pavilion, Li Yuanliu happened to pass by and greeted him.

"Long time no see, Brother Li. You've reached Foundation Establishment Perfection, seems you could consider Core Formation."

Shen Wang smiled.

"The wine you treated me to last time helped me a lot. I achieved Perfection in one go, but Core Formation might require some more preparation."

Li Yuanliu smiled, in good spirits, even though Core Formation might fail, still, reaching this step was better than many others.

"Then let me pre-emptively wish you success, Brother Li."

Shen Wang smiled: "I just saw a group of unfamiliar faces in the Inner Sect, what's that about?"

"Oh, them? They are the latest batch of disciples entering the Inner Sect."

Li Yuanliu, being well-informed, responded to Shen Wang's query: "I came by to update the Pavilion Master on the situation of the two newly recruited in our pavilion."

"Let's go together then; I also have something to discuss with the Master."

Shen Wang nodded.

The two arrived at the pavilion door. After Li Yuanliu finished his business and left, Shen Wang said, "I wonder if our Hundred Refinements City welcomes demons selling things?"

Liu Da Rong's gaze changed: "You encountered demons in Hundred Refinements City?"

"Of course, why else would I bring this up with you?"

Shen Wang continued, "I came to consult with you about the sect's stance on this matter."
