215 - The Immortal Phoenix hijacks Nayixiang
Three days later.
Wind Demon Domain Royal City, Royal Palace, Demon Lord's Bedroom.
Ye Tilt sat at the desk, holding pen and ink and writing on the paper scroll, the look on his face would fall into deep thought from time to time, and in front of him, the contents of several paper scrolls were clearly visible...
[The Demon Queen swept away all the energy items in the Wind Demon Domain Palace three days ago...... There wasn't even a single spirit grass left in the Spirit Plant...... The veins of the Taiyu Dojo disappeared and only the empty hole remained...... Seven of the eight kings had their mansions hollowed out...... The entire royal city was in a panic...... Almost all channels that can obtain large amounts of energy have been cut off......]
[The two major guards of the Demon Queen, the Phantom Sword King and the Bone Sword King, announced at the same time that they would assist the Demon Lord to control the Wind Demon Domain......]
[Three days before the start of the Battle of Star-Moon City, that is, when the Demon Queen first showed her breath, the Wind Dragon who was originally sleeping in the Demon Sword was suddenly awakened by a force, and it is very likely that the Demon Queen deliberately woke up ......]
Ye Tiannan was sorting out his thoughts, and it didn't take long for a bold but extremely unreasonable speculation to appear in his mind: the Demon Queen, she deliberately gave up the throne of the Wind Demon Domain!
First of all, regarding the content on the first scroll, it was three days ago that he ordered to collect the resources of the Wind Demon Domain and prepare to raise funds to break the Mirror King level, but he never expected that the Demon Queen would cut off his channel for obtaining energy objects, and this will inevitably take a lot of time, not two or three days to do, so he came to a conclusion: The Demon Queen began to collect the treasures of the palace three days ago, or rather, she had already expected the day when the royal power was seized, so she struck first!
Secondly, as the two most trusted guards of the Demon Queen, after the Demon Queen lost power, his first reaction was not to resist his authority, but to fully cooperate, without even showing any dissatisfaction and worry, and undoubtedly came to a conclusion: this is the result they want!
Finally, as for the timing of the wind dragon's awakening, this is very strange, it was just three days before the battle for power, and it happened to be sensed by Ye Tingnan, if the wind dragon was not awakened, I am afraid to use the "absolute transmission note" There's no way to contact the wind dragon, after all, this prop can only ignore the barrier and even others, but if the other party doesn't wake up, then it can't be contacted, and there is no way to snatch the ancestor wind demon sword so simply, it is precisely because everything is too simple to get it, so I came to a conclusion: what I want, maybe it's what the demon queen wants to give!
But...
How is this possible?
The Demon Queen values authority so much, even if the two Demon King brothers have a blood connection with her, how can she give way, or use this means to create the effect of "passive abdication", compared to actively giving way to lose face, how can a proud woman like her be willing to endure this shame...
But if she hadn't done it on purpose, how could she have ascended to the throne so smoothly...
Wait a minute!
This kingship,At first, it wasn't what I wanted.,What you want is actually just energy things.,The reason why I wanted it later.,It's because I feel that the demon queen is not worthy and wants to stop the other party!
But yourself... When did you feel that the demon queen was not worthy of being in power?
Did it start when the Demon Queen didn't show up, causing a large number of people in the Wind Demon Domain to die?
Or did it start when he learned that the demon queen insisted on going her own way and aggressively attacked the wind demon domain?
Still is...
For a while, Ye Tiannan thought of what had happened before, and he had a faint feeling: he was provoked by the demon queen, or rather, calculated by the demon queen!
The more I think about it, the more angry I get, the more I think about it, the more I lose, the more I think about it, the more unwilling I become, I have been calculating for so long, and in the end I found out that my calculation was the calculation that the demon queen wanted, and this feeling was too aggrieved...
Bang!
"Bone Sword King, Meng Yixiang, the two of you will come to see Benjun immediately!"
Suddenly, Ye Tiannan slapped the table and stood up, his face full of anger, and soon, two streams of transmission swept in both directions of the palace at lightning speed...... Today, if he can't figure things out, he feels like he's going to have a heart attack!
Tear pull –
As the two spatial cracks were torn open, the Bone Sword King and Meng Yixiang appeared outside the dormitory together.
Meng Yixiang saluted the Bone Sword King and said "Master", the latter nodded with a smile, and then, the two of them walked into the dormitory together, and as soon as they walked into the dormitory, a cold gaze locked on the two of them from the depths of the dormitory...... If you think about it with your ass, Your Highness the Demon Lord is angry!
"I've seen His Highness the Demon Lord!"
"I've seen His Highness the Demon Lord!"
Meng Yixiang came to Ye Yannan's body, and bowed half-kneeling as usual, and beside her, the Bone Sword King had already restrained his arrogance as a peerless leader, although he did not kneel and salute, but he also bowed and arched his hand, and did enough etiquette for monarchs and ministers.
"Hmph!" Seeing the actions of the two of them, especially the attitude of the Bone Sword King, the anger in Ye Tingnan's heart felt three percent gone, if this old man dares to rely on the old and sell the old like before, he will immediately let you taste the taste of the magic sword, and he still didn't forget the right thing, and asked: "How much do you two know about the plan of the Demon Queen?"
Meng Yixiang first thought about it, then sighed lightly, and explained: "Yixiang knows, you have already asked, there is no other superfluous news!"
Ye Tannan glanced at Meng Yixiang, and felt the mark of the Demon Lord at the center of his eyebrows, knowing that the other party was not lying, so he moved his gaze to the Bone Sword King, and his tone became a little heavier: "Don't tell Benjun, you don't know anything!"
"Alas..."The Bone Sword King sighed lightly, as if he had expected today's situation, only to see him wave his hand at Meng Yixiang and say, "You go out first!"
"Division... Master?"
"Get out first, that's not something you should know!"
Meng Yixiang's eyes blinked slightly, and she seemed to want to know the secret secret, but seeing the Bone Sword King's gradually serious look, she drooped her head slightly, but she still suppressed her curiosity and left the dormitory, while constricting all her perceptions and waiting quietly at the door.
As Meng Yixiang left, the Bone Sword King immediately cast a pinnacle-level blockade enchantment, isolating external exploration, and doing this, he walked slowly to a tea table, poured two cups of tea by himself, and made a gesture of invitation to the south of the night: "About the matter of the Demon Queen, it is not a sentence or two that can be clarified, sit down and talk slowly!"
"Good!" Ye Tingnan nodded, and then sat down.
The two of you, you and I started talking word by word...
"Your Highness the Demon Lord, what you want to know is the plan of the Demon Queen, right?"
"Yes!"
"Hehe, that king can tell you very clearly, the entire Wind Demon Domain, and even the entire Demon Clan, no one really knows the Demon Queen's plan!"
"Hmph, you said you don't know, how can Benjun believe you?"
"This is simple, this king is willing to make a demon oath here...... Today, if what this king and His Royal Highness the Demon Lord say is half false, I am willing to suffer from the demon devouring my heart and scatter my own cultivation...... So, is that enough?"
"Hmph, now, tell me everything you know!"
"Hehe, His Royal Highness the Demon Lord said with a smile, this king is now also a person who has lived for more than ten years, and he knows a lot of things, but the question is, which part do you want to know, don't ask in detail, where should this king start?"
Ye Tiannan frowned slightly and fell into thought, and after a while, he asked in a fixed voice: "The Demon Queen deliberately gave up this royal position to Benjun?"
"Hehe, it's not surprising that you asked, but the real situation is...... This king is not sure!" The Bone Sword King shook his head lightly, and explained: "This king only knows what the Demon Queen once advised, if you ascend to the throne, I should do my best to assist, if you can't ascend to the throne, I should lead the Wind Demon generals to hunt you down by any means, as for the rest, the Demon Queen has never said much!"
Success, full assistance!
Defeat, chase and kill with all your might!
Hearing these two worldly different conclusions, Ye Tiannan was stunned on the spot, and he felt even more confused...... Shouldn't it be the other way around, is that what the queen should do?
Sensing that Ye Tanan was in doubt, the Bone Sword King thought about it, and finally chose to express his inner thoughts: "Actually, this king thinks that the Demon Queen is testing your position, whether it is the previous 'Demon Queen forbids giving you energy objects', or 'During the wartime, the Wind Demon Domain suffered heavy losses, and the Demon Queen never appeared', it is all testing you!"
"What do you mean by that?" Ye Tiannan frowned deeply.
"This demon war, although the demon clan is menacing, as long as the demon queen appears, even if the demon clan comes forward, it can be suppressed, and you don't need to make a move at all, and the reason why the demon queen has not shown up for a long time ......" The Bone Sword King took a sip of the teacup, and when he spoke again, his tone became a little heavier: "She is just waiting for you to make a move, to see if you will make a move for the Wind Demon Domain, and whether you will take on the responsibility of the demon lord yourself!"
Hearing this, Ye Tilt Nan's face twitched, his face was full of disbelief, he felt that the Bone Sword King was defending the Demon Queen, and subconsciously retorted: "Since this is the case, then when Benjun decides to rush to the north, why don't you give Benjun energy things, isn't it better to rush to the north?"
"His Royal Highness the Demon Lord's words are indeed reasonable, but at that time, you rushed to the north for the sake of energy, or did you really protect the Wind Demon Domain, who knows?" the Bone Sword King immediately asked.
Ye Tiannan was speechless for a while, only to realize that at that time, he also seemed to have the idea of taking the opportunity to seize the energy object, not all to help the north, thinking of this, he didn't know how to ask, or rather, he had already determined a fact: the demon queen was testing his position, and then deliberately gave way!
"Even if there is no advice from the Demon Queen, this king will actually choose to support His Royal Highness the Demon Lord, in the eyes of this king, you are the most suitable person to serve as the Demon Lord of the Wind Demon Domain, in the demon war, your performance has convinced the king, I believe that not only this king, but also many generals in the Wind Demon Domain will also be as this king thinks!"
In the face of the admiration of the Bone Sword King, Ye Tiannan was unwavering, and now when he thought that his position was mostly made by the Demon Queen, not the majority of the ingredients that were taken, he felt extremely unhappy in his heart, and he seemed to think of something, and looked at the Bone Sword King suspiciously, and asked: "Since the Demon Queen is giving way to this monarch, why does she want to take away all the treasures of the royal family, is it possible that what kind of temptation?"
"Ahem..."The Bone Sword King's face was slightly embarrassed, and he explained: "It shouldn't be, as for why the Demon Queen is like this, it must be related to her plan, she needs a huge amount of energy to support it, and she can't leave too much for you!"
The corners of Ye Tannan's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he almost held back his anger and said, "When did the Demon Queen leave an energy object for Benjun, where did you start with this?"
As soon as the battle ended, he immediately returned to the palace with Qiyue and Xiaoxue, just to collect energy in the shortest possible time to break through the king level, but Lingzhipu saw it, Taiyu Dojo saw it, even if he went into the palace treasury, and in the end, what about ...... There is not even a single spirit grass left, where is this "too much left"?
Facing the anger of His Royal Highness the Demon Lord, the Bone Sword King was embarrassed again, and then explained: "Her Royal Highness the Demon Queen once said that she has left you enough resources to break through the king level, as for what it is, this king doesn't know!"
Hearing this, Ye Tiannan frowned, as if he remembered something, he hurriedly searched on his body, and a ring with a flashing phoenix pattern appeared in his hand, and an ancient aura emanated from the ring.
"This..."
"This is..."The Bone Sword King saw the ring, he took a deep breath, his face was full of horror, and it took a few breaths before he calmed down, and slowly explained: "This is the Phoenix Ring of Her Highness the Demon Queen, which contains immeasurable space, almost no less than the king-level origin space, if this king is not mistaken, there should be a large amount of energy stored in it!"
"That's right!" Ye Tiannan nodded, his heart was full of emotion, this phoenix ring, not only stored energy objects, if converted into energy value, at least 100 million, thinking of this, he hurriedly asked: "This phoenix ring has a strong prohibition, since the demon queen once said that this is reserved for this monarch, how can it be unlocked?"
"Ahem..."The Bone Sword King had another dry cough to hide his embarrassment, and then shook his head: "This king doesn't know!"
“!@#¥%......”
"Oops... His Royal Highness the Demon Lord, don't worry, please listen to what this king has to say!"
"Say!"
"Your Highness the Demon Lord, do you remember those traps and enchantments in the depths of the Demon Phoenix Palace?"
"What's wrong?"
"The day before you returned to the palace, those traps, peerless level killing arrays, and enchantments all disappeared, which means that even if you personally step into the depths of the Demon Phoenix Palace, you will not be threatened by your life!"
"In that case..."Ye Tiannan stood up and prepared to leave the dormitory, the destination was naturally the depths of the Demon Phoenix Palace, and it was obvious that the Demon Queen was hinting that there was a way to unlock the Phoenix Ring.
"Oops... Seeing this, the Bone Sword King hurriedly stood up and explained, "Also, the Demon Queen King Tuoben brought you a word!"
"Less nonsense, talk fast!"
["Be sure to take care of her!"]
"Who?"
"Ahem, this king doesn't know, but this king guesses that it should be Xiaoqing!"
"Ying Qingqing?"
"Yes!"
Ye Tiannan frowned slightly and fell into thought, thinking in his heart how could he take care of Ying Qingqing, there was a peerless soul power Ying Muchen beside her, who would dare to harm her!
If it's not Ying Qingqing who the Demon Queen asks to take care of, who is it?
Could it be...
The one in the depths of the Demon Phoenix Palace...
["Sister, have you come to see Hong'e again?"
Suddenly, Ye Tiannan's mind remembered the soul-winding fairy sound, and the most ethereal and pure music heard in the depths of the Demon Phoenix Hall sounded, and the peerless sound that seemed to be able to evolve the mind.
"Hehe, everything this king can say has been said, then I will leave!" Seeing that His Royal Highness the Demon Lord was in thought, the Bone Sword King said lightly, and his figure turned into a sword light and rushed out of the dormitory, and the enchantment that shrouded the dormitory shattered and disappeared!
The enchantment had just been broken, and outside the dormitory, a purple-clothed figure walked into the dormitory with light steps, perhaps because of her caution, barely making a sound in the dormitory, until she appeared in front of Ye Tiannan, half-kneeling and saluting.
"His Royal Highness the Demon Lord, I don't know if you still have orders, if it's okay, then Ika will also retire!"
Hearing this, Ye Tannan came back to his senses from his thoughts, and subconsciously looked at Meng Yixiang, as if he remembered something, and quickly stood up and walked in front of the other party.
"This monarch has made an oath that he will unlock the mark of the demon lord according to the wishes of many generals after the war, which naturally includes you!"
After speaking, Ye Tiannan raised his hand, and pressed his sword finger to the center of Meng Yixiang's eyebrows, and a soft guiding force spread out from the sword finger, obviously, he wanted to unravel the mark on the other party's body.
The king level is the king level after all, with his own pride, no matter how powerful the blessing effect of the mark is, it is not as important as freedom and dignity, if he thinks about it, he will not accept the mark of the demon lord in order to become stronger, and he does not want his life and death to be controlled in the eyes of others.
But...
"His Royal Highness the Demon Lord, please stop!"
When Meng Yixiang's eager voice sounded, when the white as snow as if the jade was finely carved and the soft wattle was quickly raised, when the incomparably soft little hand with a little coolness gently grasped his outstretched sword fingers...
"Uh..."Ye Tiannan was slightly stunned, puzzled: "What do you mean by this?"
"His Royal Highness the Demon Lord, please don't take back the Demon Lord's mark!" Meng Yixiang originally just held Ye Tannan's sword finger with one hand, but it seemed that she was afraid that the other party would forcibly withdraw the mark, and the other hand was raised and held the opponent's arm.
Seeing this, Ye Tiannan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, almost subconsciously thinking of the Demon Queen, so he asked, "Continue to keep the Demon Lord's mark, is it also the task given to you by the Demon Queen?"
"Yes!" Meng Yixiang nodded, but soon, she shook her head again: "But it's not!"
Ye Tingnan's face shook, speechless for a while, suddenly, he found that such an intimate action between the two was a little inappropriate, and quickly withdrew his hand, returned to his seat, and raised his hand to Meng Yixiang: "Come here and sit down, give Benjun an explanation... You must know that once you choose to leave the mark of the Demon Lord, and then try to unlock it later, this monarch will not agree, and he will not be devoured by the demons in his heart!"
Meng Yixiang quickly sat down, perhaps thinking about the wording, and only whispered after a long time, with a faint sadness in her voice: "Her Royal Highness the Demon Queen asked Ika to assist you by your side, as for the mark of the Demon Lord, she just suggested that Ika stay, but she didn't ask Ika to stay!"
"Then why do you want to take it!" Ye Tiannan looked puzzled.
"Ika just wants to get your trust!" "Ika Meng looked at Ye Tingnan firmly, and said this sentence almost immediately, and after she finished speaking, she unconsciously lowered her head a little, and when she spoke again, she was already whispering a lot...
"Ika can clearly feel that you have a kind of vigilance, a kind of vigilance against all the kings except Qiyue and Xiaoxue, this is normal and understandable, but... Since Ika has decided to assist you, she also hopes to be trusted, there are many ways for Ika to prove her loyalty, the Heavenly Oath, the Heart Demon Oath, Ika can all make it, but Ika knows very well that even if Ika makes an oath, your vigilance will not disappear, and only the Demon Lord's Mark can dispel your concerns!"
Hearing this, Ye Tiannan nodded thoughtfully, this is a fact, and it is also his principle of survival, anyone who can threaten his life cannot give absolute trust, but he still asked curiously: "Why do you have to get the trust of Benjun, you should know very well that even if there is no mark, Benjun will still use you when you should be used!"
Hearing this question, Meng Yixiang somehow, a pair of slender arms couldn't help but shrink, and the jade-like little hand hidden under the table unconsciously pinched the skirt, through the folds of the light gauze that covered the face, you can find that the other party has pursed her lips, and the worried color gradually appeared between her eyebrows, and a soft and slightly weak voice sounded...
"Ika used to be just the personal maid of Her Highness the Demon Queen, and her only thought was to be by the side of the Demon Queen forever, but I don't know when it started, Her Highness the Demon Queen seemed to have changed and became a strange person, and she would only give orders to Ika...... It's like she's in a hurry to get something done, and as for anything, she never mentions it to Ika!"
"Moreover, Her Royal Highness the Demon Queen once intended to pass on the position of the Demon Lord to the Master, but the Master refused to take it, so she stayed in the Wind Demon Domain for so many years, if there was a reliable Demon Lord over the years, maybe she would have left a long time ago, and now that you have taken over the Wind Demon Domain, Her Royal Highness the Demon Queen has no worries...... Something must have been done!"
"Now, Ika doesn't know anything, and she can't share her worries for Her Highness the Demon Queen, Ika only wants to know what Her Highness the Demon Queen is doing now, but Ika can't investigate, she can only hope for you, so ...... Ixiang hopes to gain your trust, and when you need it, Ixiang is willing to go to the soup and give everything, and when you investigate the information about the Demon Queen, I also hope that you can tell Yixiang a thing or two!"
Today's scene...
In fact, from the moment the Demon Queen asked her to take the Demon King's mark, she expected it...
If Her Highness the Demon Queen hadn't intended to let the Demon Lord take charge of the Wind Demon Domain, how could she be willing to let her personal guard and personal maid assist the Demon Lord...
It's just that when she thinks that she may not be able to see the Demon Queen in the next ten years, and when she thinks that the Demon Queen is doing some plans that no one knows about, the uneasiness and apprehension in her heart are like two sharp swords, constantly stabbing her heart...
On the other side, when Ye Tannan listened to Meng Yixiang's story, he didn't immediately agree, but fell into thought...
"The Demon Queen once deliberately gave way to the Bone Sword King?" "Ye Tiannan found that one of the views he had on the Demon Queen was problematic...... The Demon Queen doesn't actually value the King of the Wind Demon Domain, she likes the person who controls the King of the Wind Demon Domain, so the Queen of the Demon never gives power to the King of Heaven and the King of the Demon Land!
Ye Tiannan looked at Meng Yixiang, the other party was still bowing his head at the moment, as if waiting for a response, Shaoqing, he nodded: "Okay, I promise you!"
has just ascended to the throne, and there is a lack of reliable subordinates, no matter what purpose Meng Yixiang has, as long as the Demon Lord's mark is still there, then he is at ease, not to mention this kind of effort, why not!
