XVIII. Discussion and the Way Back (Part I)

Under the leadership of the "man", Zhang Longqian and the five people entered the elevator again, this time without any tricks, they went directly to the top floor, and then led by the "man" through the corridor covered with thick carpets, and walked into a room that was not very wide.

The bright room was very plainly decorated, except for the light carpet that was covered, and there was only one carved table in the whole room, and a wooden high-backed chair in front of it with his back to the door, on which seemed to sit a person, but it was completely blocked by the intricately carved back of the chair, and the figure could not be seen.

Stopping at a distance of about ten steps away from the person on the chair, the "man" who led Zhang Longqian and a few people over knelt down on one knee respectfully to the person on the chair: "Lord Kono, the person has been brought." ”

"Go down."

The moment the same deep voice heard earlier when he was underground sounded, an indescribable majesty suddenly spread around the man, but it was fleeting, as if the voice was deliberately controlled to prevent the momentum from flowing out naturally.

However, just this moment was enough to make Zhang Longqian and the five people frightened.

After receiving the order, the "man" who knelt down on one knee immediately answered "yes", and then got up and exited the room, his every move was strict and respectful, like a courtier of the emperor.

The slight sound of the door closing sounded behind him, but Zhang Longqian looked closely at the "person" hidden behind the high-backed chair without blinking. She was different from the other four people who studied spells, and she couldn't feel the so-called "demonic energy", but Fang Cai's real power could clearly indicate the identity of that "person", and the soul suppression jade on her chest could also accurately tell her how dangerous the "person" sitting there was.

The heat almost burned her.

Gently holding the soul suppression jade through her clothes, feeling that the terrible heat faded slightly, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but sigh secretly that she finally saw him, her heartbeat was irrepressibly accelerated by excitement, she took a breath lightly to adjust her state, and then was about to say the prepared words, but she heard the sitting Ye Ye suddenly speak.

"Little girl, it is clear that she has no spiritual power at all, but she dares to deal with monsters head-on, she is not small."

The calm voice was also accompanied by a majestic momentum, but compared to the previous sudden appearance, this time the few people who were mentally prepared felt much better.

The words in the power did not seem to be sarcastic, nor did they look like compliments, but they were told extremely calmly, which made Zhang Longqian a little surprised, after all, she didn't expect that the first sentence of Ji Ye's mouth was actually this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, and then nodded symbolically: "Pass the award." ”

In view of the relationship between the mage and the monster, although Zhang Longqian's attitude is not rude, it is 108,000 miles worse than the "man" who just left, and Nangong Piao, who has the pride of the mage, agrees with Zhang Longqian's actions in his heart, but on the other hand, he can't help but worry, afraid that Gu Ye will be angry because of this.

But after Zhang Longqian's bland answer, all they heard was a chuckle from Kuno, and then changed the topic.

"So, what exactly do you want to tell me?"

Zhang Longqian didn't hesitate, and said directly: "We came to cooperate with you." ”

These direct words seemed to make Kono wonder: "Cooperation? ”

"Yes." Zhang Longqian nodded, "It's as strong as you should have noticed it, right?" Now Zhongkun has been isolated. ”

"Yes, I know, and I also know that this barrier is built by the power of the demon world."

"Since you know that it was the Demon Realm that did it, I wonder if you also know their purpose?"

After a moment of silence, Kono said in a deep voice: "No, I don't know this. I only noticed the demonic aura when the barrier was completed today, and my subordinates probably haven't noticed it yet. Hmph, it seems that they have put a lot of effort into making all the members hide from my perception. ”

The last sentence made Nangong Piao's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't understand whether Ku Ye was snorting coldly or appreciating the secret actions of the demon world, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Longqian nervously, desperately trying to convey his worries to her.

What if it's different from what I expected, and Gano has a good relationship with the demon world, and he doesn't care about them coming to Zhongkun Hulai at all?

But Zhang Longqian didn't seem to notice it at all, she just said calmly: "Then, allow me to explain the situation." As the name suggests, Zhong Kun is completely isolated, no living creature can enter or leave Zhong Kun, and communication has also been cut off, so the few of us cannot contact the Dao Dharma Realm, and the support of the Dharma Hall will probably not be able to enter for the time being. And those who built the barrier were all the old tribes of the former demon king, the 'Wolf King', who tried to completely refine Zhong Kun, including the five million humans living here, and then turn Zhong Kun into an empty city completely under their control, and then use the refining energy to attack the entire human world. Now that they are already preparing for refining, I am afraid that they will start as soon as the spatial channel stabilizes. ”

Zhang Longqian's undisguised words made Nangong Piao and Bai Lu a little surprised, Bai Lu was fine, although she didn't understand why Zhang Longqian spoke so directly, but after all, she had blind confidence in Zhang Longqian, so she didn't think too much, but Nangong Piao was surprised and even more worried.

Isn't it self-exposing your weaknesses to make the situation on your side so straightforward? No matter how you say it, it's all "negotiation" now! Is it really okay to talk to Kono like this?

But Zhou Miao and Cang Yan didn't seem to be worried at all, which made Nangong Piao hide his worries in the bottom of his heart, and didn't directly open his mouth to stop Zhang Longqian from talking.

In fact, Zhang Longqian didn't say it on the spur of the moment. She has seen many people very well, in the face of this kind of experienced and powerful object, there must be no beating around the bush or pretense, because not only will this not work, but it will also make her impression in the other party's heart so bad that it will not work, and at that time, the things that could have been negotiated may also be out of play.

Being honest and speaking up is the best way to do it.

Sure enough, instead of dismissing Zhang Longqian's weakness, he laughed lightly, and his tone was a little kinder: "Little girl, in this way, do you want me to break through that barrier so that you can meet smoothly with the support of the Dao Law Realm?" For the sake of this city, he did not hesitate to use the power of monsters, and his bearing was good. Speaking of this, there was really a hint of appreciation in Suno's tone, but he said, "But unfortunately, that barrier was made with the help of the power of the Demon Realm, and I couldn't break it." ”

"No, we're not here to ask you to break the barrier." Zhang Longqian immediately denied it, "Instead, I hope you can help us stop those actions of the Wolf King's old department against Zhong Kun." ”

This seemed to be a bit beyond Kono's expectations, he was silent for a moment, and then smiled lightly, his voice a little cold: "I'm a monster with them, why do you think I will help you?" ”

Between the words, as if giving up deliberately, a more powerful momentum suddenly spread, like a lone wolf on the top of the mountain, lonely and arrogant, powerful and indifferent, everything is subordinated to the soles of its feet, but nothing can restrain its body, it is so lonely and free, but it is the emperor who rules everything, it seems that with a slight wave of his fingers, he can take all his life, which makes people feel chills in their hearts.
