Chapter XXVII
Chapter XXVII: The Eve of the Storm
As the fierce battle of that night passed, and after more than ten days of recuperation, He Xi's injuries gradually healed, and he wandered leisurely in the Shadow Mist Palace. However, because of the loss of his own daughter and a capable subordinate Renault, there was no movement at all at this time. As the patriarch of the Fifth Family, he obviously slapped the Shadow Mist Clan hard in this matter. sent two divisions to assassinate He Xi, but instead of getting rid of the other party, they all died, and He Xi was alive and well. This kind of thing didn't calm down to anyone, but at this time, the Demon Rider family seemed unusually calm.
The Demon Rider Family, originally a cavalry battalion that directly obeyed the orders of the Demon King of the Rakshasa Kingdom a thousand years ago, they were brave and good at fighting, invincible, and followed the original Demon King of the Rakshasa Kingdom to fight in the east and west, and unified the later Rakshasa Kingdom. After the unification, the Demon King gave them a fief, which is the ancient gold city where the current Demon Rider Family is located, and several elders of the Demon Rider Family established the current Demon Rider Family. Although later, the Rakshasa Kingdom was divided again, and the war continued, Gu Jincheng was still intact, and the strength of the Demon Rider Family had always been ranked in the top ten in the Rakshasa Country and had never been on the list.
In the ancient golden city, in the council hall of the Demon Rider Family, three figures sat in it, and the atmosphere was very solemn. For the first strong man, who else can there be but Renault.
"This time, I invited you to my Ancient Gold City to discuss a deal with you. Renault said softly with his hands on the armrests of the chair.
"Patriarch Renault has good things to share with us, and naturally we don't dare to slack off. Don't talk about trading, it's your words, use us, ready to send at any time. A burly man who looked like a bison said humbly.
"Thank you Lord Saru for your support, let's make a long story short. Renault echoed the orc named Saru, and began to discuss it with a few people.
Because stealing chickens and rice was not successful, Renault lost two of his right-hand men at once, one was his own daughter, and the other was a teacher he had just cultivated, so he was not as calm as the outside world saw. Since the division of the Rakshasa Kingdom, the war has gone through more than a hundred years, although all large and small families have occupied a territory of their own, but the greedy heart can never be filled, especially as a demon race. As a result, for nearly a thousand years now, almost every ten years or so, a family has been destroyed and a new family has risen. This embarrassing scene makes most of the families in the Rakshasa Kingdom only care about themselves, and with their arrogant personalities, many families are rarely willing to meddle in other people's affairs. So, Renault moved in from another world, in order to be ashamed.
In the chamber of the Demon Rider Family, Saru is the Minotaur clan of the Orc Clan. They live in the beast realm and have a cruel and desolate temperament. Mirror Heart, the ghost clan of the underworld, mostly lives alone, and occasionally there will be groups of three or two, they like the flesh and blood of creatures from all walks of life, and use this to enhance their cultivation.
After talking for a while, Renault slowly took a sip of tea and continued to speak: "This time, if the two of you can help me defeat the Shadow Mist Clan, Saru's side, I will give you the conditions promised in advance, all the women of the Shadow Mist Clan will belong to you, all the livestock will also belong to you, and there will be a considerable reward." As for the mirror heart you"
Before Renault could finish speaking, an illusory shadow on the chair opposite Saru interrupted and said, "I want their family's He Xi and Netherworld." ”
"This" Originally, Renault was very jealous of He Xi, worried that he would become a strong enemy of his demon rider clan in the future, but he didn't expect that now his daughter also died in his hands, so he couldn't wait to break him into pieces with his own hands. And that Netherworld is a well-known cold beauty in the Shadow Mist Clan, and even in the entire Rakshasa Country, it can be regarded as a heavenly beauty, coupled with her cold temperament, Renault has long coveted her. And as soon as Jingxin opened his mouth, he chose all the two people he wanted, which made him difficult.
"Not only is He Xi an excellent warrior, but he also has an amazing sense of magic, which is perfect for me to reincarnate. And that Netherworld, who originally had half the blood of my ghost clan, was born of Condensation and one of our ghost kings, and it was only natural to bring her back to the ghost realm. Jingxin said coldly.
For He Xi, Renault is naturally very clear. But for the fact that the Netherworld was born of Condensation and the Ghost King, Renaud was still very shocked, although he had heard of Condensation's name for a long time, but he didn't dare to think that Condensation could actually get together with a ghost and have a child.
After calming down his shocked heart, Renault finally gritted his teeth and decided to give up on these two people. Because nothing is more important than victory at the moment, if you fail to capture Shadowfog City this time, then what awaits you will be crazy revenge. In fact, with the Demon Rider Family alone, defeating the Shadow Mist Clan is also a matter of victory. It's just that the current Shadow Mist Clan is not as easy to pinch as a ripe persimmon, and if you defeat them by yourself, you will definitely lose a lot of strength on your side. This also means that if other families attack their ideas at this time, then they will not be busy for nothing and have to take the entire Ancient Golden City.
After weighing the pros and cons, Renault thought to himself, fortunately, the minotaur did not have any excessive requirements, otherwise even if he won all this time, it would be equivalent to working in vain, but fortunately, the orc has a simple brain. So he gritted his teeth again and said slowly, "Okay, just as you say." ”
After receiving Renault's promise, the illusory figure of Mirror Heart gradually blurred, and then quickly disappeared. And Nasaru, after a kind word, also quickly left the ancient gold city.
The upper echelons of the Shadow Mist Clan were not idle, and after learning that He Xi had killed Renault's daughter and one of his divisions, Condensation raised the vigilance of the entire city to the highest level, and laid countless traps around the city walls, and even the soldiers of Wind and Sand City lived in Shadow Mist City early. In order to prepare for Renault's revenge. As a result, what made Condensation unexpectedly was that Renault, who had always been resolute, did not move at all at this time.
"Mother, could it be that there was a leak, so Renault didn't attack us. Blood Dance played with the viper in her hand and said respectfully to Condensation.
Glancing at Blood Dance, Condensation shook his head and said, "No, with my understanding of this person, after suffering this humiliation, he will definitely take revenge." If we had a traitor here, he would have already called us, and after knowing our layout, with the ability of their demon cavalry, it would be easy to bulldoze our Shadow Mist City. ”
"Ling Feng, what's going on over there. A condensed gaze fell on Ling Feng.
Hearing Condensation's question, Ling Feng bowed forward and saluted, and then replied, "Report to Lord Condensation, the six thousand soldiers of our clan have been prepared in the small city that must lead to Shadow Mist City, and as long as they receive the signal, they can arrive within an hour." ”
"Very good, after this time, your wedding with Huameng will be held at the celebration banquet!" Condensation nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Blood Dance and said, "In the past few days, have you stared at him and eaten everything?"
"Yes, Mother. Every time, he ate it all before I left. Blood Dance laughed weirdly.
While the others and Condensation were discussing the war in the conference room, He Xi slipped away quietly again as usual. On the playground, one person and one dragon frolicked, as if this coming bloody storm had nothing to do with them.
