Gu Zheng raised an eyebrow.
Guarding a passage was not the mission he wanted.
'Waiting for Demon Fiends to emerge from the passage... Who knows how long that could take?'
For others, it was a safe and stable gig—at least, safer than Demon Extermination.
But Gu Zheng didn't want it. It was too much of a waste of time.

Gu Zheng had already dealt with most of the threats within the Old Ox Mountain passage.
The Black Sheep Demon Race was very satisfied with the results of their "retaliation" and were now focused on preventing humans from stirring up trouble while they discussed relocating their territory.
