Chapter 543: The lesser of two powers
Riding on the back of the Dark Flame Demon Horse, Lin Wu couldn't help but look around at the city, this small city in the Demon World gave Lin Wu the feeling that there was not much difference between the city in the Human World except for the different architectural styles, the spacious streets were lined with shops, and the streets were also lively with people coming and going, of course, the people who came and went here were demons.
However, if you really want to say what is the difference between the city of this demon world and the city of the human world, Lin Wu feels that the biggest difference is not in the city, but in those demons in the city.
Along the way, every place Lin Wu went, the demons in this place would stand respectfully on both sides of the road, and every demon clan would look at Lin Wu with a hint of awe on their faces. In the human world, although people will also respect the strong, they are far less thorough than in the demon world.
Because the law of the jungle is followed in the demon world, the strong have incomparable power, and the weak can only be reduced to fish and meat, so this also makes every demon subconsciously express awe when they see the strong, and this is no longer a simple respect for the strong, but a kind of submission of the weak to the strong. It's like a weak Warcraft, and when it encounters a powerful Warcraft, it will show surrender to ensure its own life.
And this is the law of the jungle where the strong are respected, if you want to live, you can only obey the strong, in this regard, Lin Wu has already known a lot in his heart, before entering the demon world, he told Lin Wu more than once about this rule of the demon world, so in the face of the awe-inspiring gaze of those demons, Lin Wu also seemed very natural.
However, at this moment, Lin Wu was a little puzzled in his heart, now he did not release any breath that belonged to the strong at all, how did those weak demons know their strength, and with Lin Wu's current strength at the peak of the Sword Venerable, except for the strong in the Holy Domain, Lin Wu's strength could not be seen at all under the Holy Domain, and even if he wanted to hide it deliberately, even the strong in the Holy Domain might not be able to see Lin Wu's true strength.
However, it didn't take long for the doubts in Lin Wu's heart to be solved, and it wasn't Lin Wu himself who revealed Lin Wu's strength, nor did those weak demons see anything.
The reason for all this is that the Dark Flame Demon Horse that Lin Wu is sitting on now has leaked Lin Wu's strength.
Dark Flame Demon Horse, this kind of magical beast can be said to be famous in the demon world, and even the Dark Flame Demon Horse has become a symbol of the strong. Although the level 8 Dark Flame Demon Horse that Lin Wu was riding restrained his own aura, it looked like an ordinary Dark Flame Demon Horse, but even the worst of ordinary Dark Flame Demon Horses belonged to level 6 Demonic Beasts, and if you wanted to tame a Dark Flame Demon Horse, you would need the strength of the Sword Sect level.
It was precisely for this reason that those demons in the Grey Earth City regarded Lin Wu as a Sword Sect-level powerhouse. And a strong man at the level of the Sword Sect can be regarded as a very powerful existence in a small marginal city like Gray Earth City.
After strolling around the city for a while, Lin Wu stopped outside a very elegant hotel, as soon as Lin Wu stopped, a land demon boy ran out of the hotel, he came to Lin Wu, bent down respectfully and said, "My lord, please inside!" ”
Earth demons, in the demon world, are one of the weakest demons, belonging to the lowest category, and they can be seen in some low-level industries.
Jumping off the Dark Flame Demon Horse, Lin Wu walked into this inn, and the Dark Flame Demon Horse was led to the back of the hotel by another Earth Demon Boy, and every slightly larger inn in the Demon Clan's inn has a special place for the Demon Beast to rest.
Walking into the inn, Lin Wu saw a middle-aged Mocha man hurrying over from inside, and when the middle-aged Moka man saw Lin Wu, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, because he heard the news that a Sword Sect powerhouse had arrived, but this middle-aged Mocha man did not expect that the Sword Sect powerhouse was actually a young man from his own clan.
"When did such a genius come out of the clan?" The middle-aged Mocha man couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at the young Lin Wu.
However, the middle-aged man of the Demon Card Clan quickly reacted, respectfully bowed to Lin Wu, and said, "Coming to the small shop really makes the small shop shine. ”
"Prepare me a separate yard." Before the middle-aged Mocha clan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Wu, and then Lin Wu took out a few magic yuan coins and threw them to the middle-aged Mocha clan, Lin Wu didn't have the kung fu to listen to his praise.
"Yes, please come with me, sir." Hearing this, the middle-aged Moka clan hurriedly bowed down and introduced Lin Wu into the inn. On the way, Lin Wu looked at the decoration layout in the hotel, and couldn't help but nod secretly, and said in his heart: "Although this Moka clan has very mediocre qualifications, it has a unique side in doing business. ”
Since Lin Wu was disguised as the Moka Clan, Lin Wu naturally had a detailed understanding of the Moka Clan's situation. According to what Lin Wu has learned, although the qualifications of this Moka clan are very mediocre, when it comes to doing business, it is the most powerful in the Demon Realm, and the business of the Mocha Clan can be said to be all over the entire Demon Realm, and it is no exaggeration to say that every city from the smallest small city to the central imperial city, more than half of the shops are owned by the Moka Clan.
This also makes the wealth obtained by the Mocha people every day reach an astronomical amount, but unfortunately, the strength of the Mocha tribe is too weak, and there is no strength to protect these wealth, so most of the wealth accumulated by the Mocha tribe is used to honor other powerful demons, to put it bluntly, the wealth accumulated by the Mocha tribe is basically taken to pay protection fees, and as for what they get, it is only a small part of it.
If there is a super strong person in the Mocha clan, then with the mocha clan's earning power and the deterrence of having a strong person, the Mocha clan will definitely become the second largest race in the demon world after the Lucifer royal clan, which is why Nagude is so excited after seeing the terrifying talent that Lin Wu has.
Because the Mocha are in such a desperate need of a truly strong man.
"My lord, this is the best yard of the shop, and this is built in the style of a yard in the human world." The middle-aged Mocha man guided Lin Wu to a small courtyard with a quiet environment, and when introducing this courtyard, the middle-aged Mocha man couldn't help but have a trace of pride in his expression.
The things of the human world are very rare things in the demon world, and those who can build such a courtyard only have this ability in the demon world, although this courtyard is built with the materials of the demon world, but this style from the courtyard of the human world is the favorite of the noble and strong people of the demon race. And this kind of yard is only qualified for the strong.
"Oh, yes, yes." Lin Wu looked at the courtyard in front of him, and he could actually see the courtyard of the human world in the demon world, which made Lin Wu very satisfied.
"It's good if the adults are satisfied." The middle-aged Mocha man said respectfully. For this young Mocha powerhouse, the middle-aged Mocha man also wanted to get in touch with him.
However, Lin Wu didn't have the interest to talk to him much, after all, although Lin Wu was very familiar with the situation of the Mocha clan, but these were all known from the ancient mouth, as for some specific details, Lin Wu didn't know, such as who the patriarch of the Mocha clan is now, and what are the strong people in the clan, this is what Lin Wu doesn't know.
In order to avoid being exposed, Lin Wu directly opened his mouth to drive people away, and said, "Okay, you go down, don't enter the courtyard at will without my instructions." ”
"Yes, the villain is retiring." Hearing this, the middle-aged Mocha man respectfully withdrew.
With the departure of the middle-aged Mocha man, Lin Wu also walked into this courtyard, and walked to the bedroom of the courtyard with ease, after all, this courtyard was built in the style of the courtyard of the Anren Realm, and naturally Lin Wu knew the layout of the courtyard well.
At this time, Moon Shadow took the injured Gude and the young man of the Flame Demon Clan into Ash Earth City, and coincidentally, the inn Moon Shadow chose was actually the one where Lin Wu lived.
The middle-aged Mocha man, who had just returned from Lin Wu, heard an earth demon boy running over in a hurry and said, "Shopkeeper, yes, His Royal Highness Lucifer has arrived!" ”
"What!!" Hearing this, the middle-aged Mocha man exclaimed like a cat with its tail stepped on. The Lucifer royal family, in a small city like Grey City, there is a Lucifer royal family, which is a big deal. Immediately, the middle-aged Mocha man rushed out without saying a word.
When the middle-aged Mocha man came to the lobby and saw the moon shadow, he immediately knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "See Your Highness!" ”
"Get up and prepare three courtyards for us." Moon Shadow said lightly.
"Yes, please come with me." Hearing this, the middle-aged Mocha man walked into the hotel with Moon Shadow, Gude and the young men of the Flame Demon Clan.
After a while, the middle-aged Mocha man brought the three Moon Shadow to their destination, but looking at the ordinary courtyard, Moon Shadow couldn't help frowning, and the young man of the Yan Demon Clan on the side shouted with a cold face: "You actually let Your Highness live in this kind of courtyard, you are not small." As he spoke, the young man of the Yan Demon Clan suddenly turned pale and then coughed lightly a few times, although after treatment, the young man of the Yan Demon Clan woke up from a coma, but the injuries on his body were not healed for a while.
"No, no, no, how dare I be, Your Highness, it's just the best courtyard, and an adult has already settled in just now." Hearing the words of the young man of the Yan Demon Clan, the middle-aged Mocha Clan's face turned pale and he was busy.
"Someone lived? Wouldn't it be nice to let him out, or do you think that person's status is more noble than that of His Highness? The young man of the Yan Demon Clan said lightly.
Hearing this, the middle-aged Mocha man couldn't help but wail in his heart, this situation could be said to be the last thing he wanted to encounter, but now he could only choose to offend one.
"The villain, go and inform the adult." The middle-aged Mocha man said that between facing the Lucifer royal family and the young strong man of his own clan, the middle-aged Mocha man chose the former.
In the eyes of the middle-aged Mocha man, the genius of the Sword Sect of his own clan could not be compared with the Lucifer royal family in terms of strength and status, so he could only choose the lesser of two powers. RO
