Chapter 159: Undercurrent
Huang Can was secretly glad that he had escaped from the hands of the scattered immortals, and he frantically ran his demonic power and fled to the Spirit Valley.
As a ten-star demon king, his demonic power is comparable to that of the late stage of the Martial Saint, and he arrived at the Spirit Absolute Palace thousands of miles away in less than half a day.
At this time, the jade-faced fox was in the main hall to meet a very important person of the demon clan.
This person is tall, even taller than Huang Can, he has golden curly hair, even his eyebrows and mustache are golden, especially those eyes that shine with yellow light, giving people a strange feeling.
He was a large mantle, wearing a dark red cloak, bronze armor on his shoulders and chest, a thick belt around his waist, and a gleaming golden lion's head at the center.
The jade-faced fox smiled charmingly, holding her head in her hands, and yawned lazily, and the deep furrow on her chest also stirred, squeezing out the tender snow white.
Even if he sits on the throne, the jade-faced fox can show exquisite and moving curves, especially those two slender thighs, even if they are hidden under the clothes, it is difficult to hide the charm of the heart.
"Shi Batian, you are the generalissimo of our demon clan, and you are a dignified demon immortal. The strongest lion king forces of my demon clan are in your hands, what are you not satisfied with?" asked the jade-faced fox.
Shi Batian's bronze bell-sized eyes glared at the jade-faced fox, and immediately broke her demonic charm, and then shouted:
"Although I, Shi Batian, am a demon immortal who has not been able to survive the catastrophe, I have always been thinking about the future of the demon clan. When the Nine-Tailed Spirit Saint was in power before, although I was dissatisfied with the reluctance of the treaty between him and the human race, it was understandable. But now, Your Majesty, you are going to ambush and attack the cultivators of the Shushan Sect indiscriminately, aren't you afraid that they will attack the Spirit Absolute Palace!"
"Haha...."The jade-faced fox looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he didn't care about what Shi Batian said at all, "I should be something important to make the marshal like this... The strength of my demon clan is also fifty-five points with that of the human race, why should I act based on their faces? Then the hunting in Shushan has to slaughter thousands of demon clans every time, doesn't the marshal have any opinion on this?"
Shi Batian snorted coldly and said:
"Of course, Marshal Ben despised what the Nine-Tailed Spirit Saint had done before, it was because of what bullshit contract he had with the Terran that made our Demon Clan's territory encroached on year by year. However, now that Your Majesty has used such tricks to sneak attack the cultivators of the human race, aren't you afraid that those scattered immortals will unite and deal with us together?"
The jade-faced fox straightened up and looked at Shi Batian, with a hint of fierceness in his eyes:
"Today's human race is not as good as it was a thousand years ago, and those monastic sects wish that everyone else would die for their own interests... I targeted the Shushan faction alone this time, just to see him make a big move... In addition, the foundation of Shushan is only a thousand years, but it can faintly dominate the entire human cultivation world, I think they have been red for a long time, so when they see Shushan suffering, they will only gloat. Remember, we have only one enemy this time, and that is Shushan..."
The words of the jade-faced fox are quite convincing, as of now, except for the Fire Immortal Sect, there are no other sects that have gathered with Shushan, it seems that Shushan is high on weekdays and has offended many people.
Although Shushan is powerful, the few major sects behind him are not vegetarians, and on the surface, they seem to respect Shushan as the boss, but in fact, they all secretly want to replace him.
Shi Batian also nodded frequently when he heard the jade-faced fox say this, could a demon immortal of his level not understand the key to this? He asked the new demon emperor so much, just to examine her ability.
If the jade-faced fox was short-sighted and recklessly attacked Shushan only for revenge, then Shi Batian would definitely teach her a lesson. But now it seems that this jade-faced fox is quite thoughtful, which makes Shi Batian feel a little more at ease.
But what he didn't know was that what he said just now was given to her by the military advisor, and he is now the real commander of the demon clan.
Just as Shi Batian was about to say something, a tall shadow broke in, knelt down to the jade-faced fox and said:
"Your Majesty, I'm back..."
This person is Huang Can, and when the jade-faced fox saw that it was him, he immediately smiled:
"General Huang Can, hurry up, how is the plan going?"
Huang Can got up and reported to the jade-faced fox about the previous things, and finally emphatically mentioned:
"The person who cast the spell on me is covered in smoke, and his strength is outstanding, I am afraid that it is the scattered immortals of Shu Mountain, it seems that we have successfully provoked them, and those scattered immortals of Shu Mountain have been assembled one after another..."
The jade-faced fox nodded, revealing a hint of solemnity:
"General Huang has worked hard, your brothers have made great contributions to my demon clan, and when the matter is completed, he will definitely be rewarded for his merits..."
Shi Batian, who was on the side, looked at Huang Can but his brows were furrowed, the demonic power in his hand was great, and one hand was attached to Huang Can's back, pulling out.
A puff of smoke was pulled out by him, swirling in his hand, emitting faint fluctuations in mana.
Huang Can was shocked, because he was marching in a hurry, and the smoke was so hidden that he didn't notice it at all.
Shi Batian violently dispersed the smoke in his hand and said to Huang Can:
"General Huang, when I heard what you said just now, the old man became suspicious. I'm afraid that the strength of that scattered immortal is comparable to that of the old man, but he can let you escape from under his nose, I am afraid that it has left a mark on you, and it seems that the old man guessed it..."
"Thank you, Marshal..."Huang Can saluted Shi Batian.
Shi Batian nodded, this Huang Can is quite sensible.
Huang Can thanked Shi Batian, turned around and bowed to the jade-faced fox:
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to ask for..."
"But it doesn't hurt to say that," the jade-faced fox said with his head tilted.
"When the Rhino Emperor was dying, please ask the minister to ask you back his other son, you see..." Huang Can did not forget the Rhino Emperor's entrustment before his death, but it was rare.
The jade-faced fox showed a sad look and said to Huang Can:
"The Rhino Emperor is loyal to his liver and courage, and I am very saddened by his death... His other son, who was being escorted by a Terran monk, was no longer there... General Huang Can, I order you to take the corpse of the second son of the Rhino Emperor and his brother back to their hometown. Remember, tell him that his brother was killed by the Terrans, you know what I mean?"
Huang Can was stunned for a moment, his heart turned over and over, the Rhino Emperor clearly told himself that his eldest son was imprisoned by the Demon Emperor in the Spirit Absolute Palace, how could he be raided by the Terran in the process of escorting? Moreover, the escort team is all the elite of the Demon Clan, even if they die, they will not let the escort be harmed, this is an unwritten rule. Now, he hadn't heard of any of the teams being raided.
The eldest son of the Rhino Emperor was probably killed by the Demon Emperor, Huang Can thought of this, and unconsciously complained for the Rhino Emperor in his heart.
Their own death still can't buy the life of their eldest son, and their death should be used as the source of the rhinoceros clan's hatred for the human race, which is really sad and lamentable.
Although Huang Can thought so in his heart, he still took the order to retreat.
Shi Batian was very satisfied with what the jade-faced fox had done just now, the so-called non-poisonous husband, if the demon clan wants to restore its former glory, it needs such vicious means.
The jade-faced fox saw from Shi Batian's eyes that he was relieved of himself at this time, so he said:
"The marshal is here this time, but I have a greater burden entrusted to you, I don't know if you are willing to bear it..."
Shi Batian's expression immediately became serious, and he bowed to the jade-faced fox:
"Your Majesty, please say, I, Shi Batian, will definitely go to the soup for the demon clan, and I will not give up!"
"The marshal doesn't have to be polite, what I have entrusted me with is the position of the president of the demon army. This position has been vacant since the Great War a thousand years ago, and now that I have just taken the throne, it is the time to employ people, and the marshal must not shirk..."The jade-faced fox said slowly.
The president of the demon clan army is the commander-in-chief of the entire demon clan army, and there are ten major commanders under him, and Huang Can's brother Huang Zhuo is among them.
Shi Batian was overjoyed in his heart, it seems that the Nine-Tailed Spirit Saint died really well, and now that the new demon emperor has ascended the throne and he has been entrusted with a heavy responsibility, their lion demon clan has finally come out.
After receiving the commander's seal prepared for him by the jade-faced fox personally, Shi Batian was in power, and his heart was also full of pride and ambition.
"The future of the demon race is the end of the human race. He couldn't help but think to himself.
**************** ********************
In the dense forest less than 100 miles away from Shushan, Hua Wushuang and Lu Dapeng were walking on the way back to Shushan.
"Young Master Hua... That..."Lu Dapeng spoke hesitantly.
"Lu Dapeng, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't hide it..."Hua Wushuang said.
"Young Master Hua, what I said before is nonsense, don't you care..."
"Lu Dapeng, the two of us have known each other for so long, and now we are good brothers in life and death, I don't care what you say, at that time, you were also trying to live, I understand..."
"Young Master Hua, if you say that, I'm relieved..."Lu Dapeng lost a sigh of relief.
Just as Lu Dapeng was relieved, Hua Wushuang's fan swept past his neck, bringing up a wave of blood.
Lu Dapeng clutched his bleeding neck and looked at Hua Wushuang in horror, because his throat was completely cut, and what he said was not clear:
"For... Why..."
Hua Wushuang pushed Lu Dapeng to the ground and snapped his fingers at him, and a flame formed by mana slowly climbed up his body.
After a while, Lu Dapeng's whole body was wrapped in flames, and he wanted to shout frantically, but he couldn't make a sound.
After a while, Lu Dapeng was scorched, covered in pitch black, curled up motionless, exuding a scorched smell.
Hua Wushuang stepped on it with one foot, and then kicked one foot after another, trampling Lu Dapeng's body into pieces.
"Brother, don't blame me... Even if I don't kill you, Shushan can't tolerate you... I will tell the hall master that you were killed by the Great Demon, and your family will be proud of you..."Hua Wushuang said silently.
