The Demon King said that he was going to take us to meet the catfish, and I thought it should be a place with a lot of water, such as the artificial lake in the garden of the Demon King's Mansion.

But the Demon King led us straight to the back of the hall.

The demon king said that behind this is the government affairs hall, which is the place where he used to deal with some court things finely, but now this demon palace no longer has an early dynasty, and there is only a court meeting once a month, so this government affairs hall is basically deserted.

The place of this government hall is not small, with bookshelves, desks, and a lot of porcelain bottles, which are full of picture scrolls.

There are some alder grasses in this room.

Seeing those Emperor Alder Grasses, I couldn't help but wonder: "You are a demon king, what are you doing with these Emperor Alder Grass?" ”

The Demon King smiled and said, "These are not placed for me, but for my wife Yun Li, she has the blood of the human race on her body, and she not only needs demonic energy, but also needs some spiritual energy support, so I have placed Emperor Alder Grass in many places in this Demon King's Mansion." ”

Hearing this, I asked curiously: "Could your wife's conception be related to these emperor alder grasses?" ”

The Demon King shook his head and said, "It shouldn't matter, I've also experimented on other monsters with Emperor Alder Grass, but I still haven't been able to breed offspring." ”

I nodded and continued to ask, "By the way, didn't you take us to see the catfish, why did you lead us to this government hall, is the catfish in this palace?" ”

My aura was also probed a little, and I didn't find any powerful aura.

The monster smiled, then pointed to a crystal fish tank on the desk and said, "The catfish is inside." ”

The fish tank was the size of a fist, and there would be catfish in it.

I quickly walked over to take a look, and there was a small catfish not much bigger than a tadpole, swimming leisurely in the bathtub, so uncomfortable.

I was surprised, "This thing is a catfish?" ”

The Demon King said: "Yes, it is the Catfish Beast, the Demon Venerable Catfish Beast." ”

Hearing the word Demon Venerable, I was still a little jealous in my heart, but I couldn't understand that this tadpole-like catfish in front of me would have the strength of Demon Venerable.

I felt nothing from its body except for a trace amount of demonic energy.

I turned my head to look at Zixian.

Zixian nodded at me, obviously Zixian had already sensed the true strength of the "little catfish".

The Demon King continued: "Its hidden supernatural power is very strong, especially in the water, even if a strong person of the Demon Venerable level wants to find it, it is extremely difficult, as long as it is summoned, or the fish tank is broken, its body will quickly become larger, and then it will become a real catfish. ”

"It should be bigger than the Demon Pole Snake."

Before I could speak, the Demon King handed me another set of formulas, and after reading them, he said, "You write down this formula, and during the time I go to be reborn, this catfish will be with you for the time being, and it will be as loyal to you as it is to me." ”

Hearing this, I looked at the Demon King in amazement and asked, "You handed me over the catfish?" You believe me so much as a human being? Aren't you afraid that I will use the catfish beast to the detriment of the demons? Why did you teach me how good you taught this catfish to your wife, or how good the clouds were? ”

The Demon King shook his head and said, "They can't control this catfish, because they don't have the Demon King physique, and throughout the world, there are only two of us who have the Demon King physique!" ”

"In other words, you have a part of the Demon Ancestor's Qi vein, and you are also a member of our Demon Ancestor's lineage, but your Demon Ancestor's Qi is acquired, and you absorb a part of my Demon Qi, which should be transformed into a Qi vein that can be continuously reborn in your dantian qi sea under the effect of the Soul Bell."

"So you have the Demon Ancestor Qi Vein, and you can control this catfish like me."

"Actually, the Demon Ancestor Qi Vein can control any Demon Extreme Yuan Beast, including that Demon Extreme Yuan Snake, but my cultivation is not enough, and I can only control the Catfish Beast until now."

The Demon King's words reminded me of my doubts about the Dead Bell, and I asked him if he knew the words engraved in the Dead Bell.

The Demon King said, "Are you referring to those divine texts?" ”

He actually knew.

I nodded, and the demon king continued: "I don't know why there is a divine text on the treasure of our demon clan, and I don't understand the meaning of the divine text, I only know that the soul bell was left by our demon ancestor, and he sealed himself in it to protect our demon clan, but unfortunately it costs a lot to summon him out, and that is to pay for the life of the demon king." ”

I was so happy, I thought he would know the contents of the text, but I didn't expect him to know either.

As he spoke, the demon king picked up the crystal fish bowl on the table and handed it to me, and the catfish in the fish tank kept swimming in the direction of the demon king, hitting the fish tank, looking reluctant.

The demon king smiled at the little catfish beast and said: "Don't make trouble, you have to listen to Zhang Mu's words in the past few years, his order is my order, you have to execute it unconditionally, even if he asks you to kill your companions of the demon clan, you have to do it without hesitation, understand?" ”

The little catfish nodded.

I couldn't help but be shocked in my heart, did this demon king really give me so much power?

After saying that, the demon king looked at me again and said, "Zhang Mu, you promise me that when my child is three years old, if my rebirth is not completed, you will hand over the catfish beast to him to raise, and let my child inherit the catfish beast." ”

I said, "I promise you, if you trust me so much, I will keep the promise." ”

As I spoke, I made an oath to the Demon King.

The Demon King nodded reassuringly, and then said to me: "In this way, you also have two Demon Venerables by your side, and there is no big problem for you to compete with the Zhou family, remember to guard this Demon Abyss for me." ”

I looked at the Demon King and couldn't help but say: "You will be reborn, and it's not that you won't come back, it's like Tuogu." ”

The demon king said: "If it was before, I naturally didn't have anything to worry about, because I didn't have children, but this time it's different, I have children, and I naturally remember a little more." ”

I said, "Listen to what you mean, you are good to your wife Yunli because of your children?" ”

The Demon King said bluntly: "Yes! ”

But soon he added: "No matter what I am good to my wife for, my feelings for her are real, and my heart for her is also true, I think this is enough." ”

I didn't say anything either.

I held the crystal fish tank and looked at the little catfish swimming in it, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

The Demon King said: "Tomorrow there will be a monthly court meeting, and at that time, in addition to the Zhou family in the west, several powerful families in the east will come to participate, and I will canonize you with a small official position at that time, so that you and your companions can stay in the demon abyss justifiably." ”

"Of course, don't worry, I know in my heart that you are not really from the Demon Abyss, you are still from the human side, not from our Demon Clan, we are just a cooperative relationship, and when you come out of the Demon Abyss again, my remnants will also go out with you, and when the time comes, I will go to testify to you, prove your innocence, and expose the ugly face of the old guy in Nantianmen."

Hearing the Demon King say this, I also felt a lot better in my heart instantly, if I can prove my innocence, then Beitianmen will be completely worry-free, and I can even take the opportunity to oust the old guy from Nantianmen, and maybe let Zu Xiwei restrain from the precipice......

But I also know very well in my heart, even if Zu Xiwei wakes up, I don't have any hope with her, we will only be strangers, she hurt me too much, especially about my parents, her indifference makes me have the heart to kill her.

Thinking about this, my mood is a little uncomfortable.

The Demon King continued: "Okay, you go back to rest first, remember the way, you go back by yourself, I won't send it, you can go anywhere in this Demon King's Mansion, there is no forbidden area for you." ”

I smiled at the monster too.

On the way back to my residence with Zixian, I held the catfish beast in my hand and asked Zixian, "This little thing really has the strength of the Demon Venerable?" ”

Zixian nodded and said, "That's right. ”

I couldn't help but pick it up and look closely.

Zixian was beside him at this time and said, "Zhang Mu, have you ever thought about a question. ”

I asked Zixian, what is the problem.

She said: "Every move of the Demon King seems to be beneficial to our stay in the Demon Abyss, but in fact, it is pulling us into the political quagmire of the Demon Abyss, and we are also falling deeper and deeper, and may even reach the point where we can't get out." ”

"One day, if we are completely stuck in this quagmire and can't leave, what if that is good."

I said, "When the Demon King comes back from rebirth, my cooperation with him will end, and we will definitely leave the Demon Abyss before the ten-year period is up." ”

"But as you said, every 'gift' from him in the future, we must carefully consider whether to accept it, so as not to really fall into that quagmire."

Zixian smiled at me and said, "Maybe I'm overthinking." ”

I shook my head and said, "It's not called worrying, it's cautious, I sometimes get carried away, so I need your thousands of years of experience to remind me." ”

Zixian Rising said with a displeased face: "Are you talking about my old age?" ”

I laughed and said, "How can you be old, this is a human body, but you are only nineteen years old, and you are in the prime of life." ”

As I spoke, I stopped Zixian's shoulder.

Zixian also snuggled into my arms.

The guards and maids of the Demon King's Mansion who passed by saluted us one after another, and when they saw us hugging each other, they all smiled slightly.

I asked Zixian: "Then tomorrow the Demon King's canonization of me, should I accept it?" ”

Zixian thought for a while and said, "Naturally, we have to accept it, but after that, we have to be cautious about the gift of the demon king." ”

I also nodded, then tomorrow's Demon King Palace, it must be a "storm"!
