Chapter 157: Actually Refined by Master?

Li Yingling’s gaze was fixed on the East.

Cui Hao also put away his previously lazy expression. With a solemn face, he pulled Lin Luoyu beside him, dragging her to hide behind their Eldest Senior Sister.

Seeing the actions of the two, the owl knew at a glance that something big had happened.

It glanced at the Foundation Establishment Bull Demon holding a steel pitchfork, whose gaze was still fierce, but it also subconsciously followed Li Yingling’s gaze to the East.

After a thought, the owl moved its claws and silently stood behind Cui Hao.

Sometimes, making the right choice is the most important thing.

Think of the Great Wu Demon King, then think of this bull demon.

Demons may be uneducated, but it doesn’t mean they can’t see the situation clearly or understand the circumstances.

Cui Hao glanced sideways at the owl, which was shrinking its head and looking at him with a fawning gaze in both eyes.

After a brief thought, he still let it stand behind him.

After a few breaths, the Foundation Establishment Bull Demon took a couple more glances, only to find that there was still no movement in the East.

It said with a hint of anger: ”You shameless snake, are you here to fool your Bull Grandpa?”

Li Yingling no longer bothered with this low-level little demon. To a Golden Core cultivator, that aura fluctuation was already extremely close.

Cui Hao glanced at this Foundation Establishment Bull Demon, allowing it to continue its arrogance.

Toward a demon that was about to die, Cui Hao still had some patience.

The Foundation Establishment Bull Demon’s patience was exhausted. It lifted its pitchfork and strode forward: ”What your Bull Grandpa said, you...”

Before it could finish speaking, a demonic wind swept in from the East, and at the same time, the wind’s speed slowed.

The Foundation Establishment Bull Demon looked closely and saw that it was the Kun Mountain Demon King—Hu Qi.

Its face instantly became a little flustered.

The tense spiritual power within Li Yingling had long been ready to strike. She had thought another demon king was coming, but she never expected it to be the leader of the demon nation. This was truly an unexpected delight.

If she could kill this thing before the battle began, her sect would surely become greatly famous in Xuanwu Country.

She was just waiting for that tiger demon to get a little closer, to wait until he saw her and felt doubt, then she would summon her Spirit Treasure to be the first to establish a merit for her sect.

But the tiger demon spoke from a great distance: ”We are all brothers of the demon race, jointly persecuted by others. At this critical moment, we should share a common hatred! Let’s not harm our brotherly bond.”

Hearing this, Li Yingling was stunned. She stared intently. The tiger demon had a large blade on his back and was holding a fox with one arm at his waist. His slightly massive body landed directly on the ground.

The main thing was... this tiger demon’s gaze toward them held not a trace of suspicion.

It was as if he was looking at them the same way he would look at little demons.

Li Yingling’s mind turned slightly, and she understood.

That so-called Precious Pearl was not refined by her Junior Sister at all; it was clearly refined by her own Master!

And he was probably waiting for this very moment, to let her understand at this slightly critical moment that a Master is, after all, a Master.

Just a single backup plan could resolve her current crisis.

At this moment, Li Yinglu could picture her Master’s expression at that time. It must have been a light smile, without saying a word, but the expression was surely saying one thing—Yingling, is that all?

Damn it!

Taught a lesson by Master again.

Hu Qi glanced at the snake demon before him. This demon was very strange; seeing him, it wasn’t excited at all.

Normally, when little demons saw him, they would be extremely excited, wishing they could rush up and kiss him twice.

Not only was it this snake demon, but the expressions of the bull demon and the weasel were also rather bland, and they even looked a bit wary.

The only normal one was probably the owl behind them; its gaze was just right, fervent and full of admiration.

As if it had seen the hope of the entire village.

However, it was also possible that he had made fewer public appearances recently, so the new demons did not know who he was.

After a long period of training from the old fox, Hu Qi deeply understood one principle.

You might not be able to handle the task, but your words must always sound good.

He first put down the old fox from his waist, looked at the few demons who were in a tense standoff, and said with a natural and firm tone:

”We are all of the demon race, facing a great disaster together. How can we fight amongst ourselves like brothers? I will not ask about the cause or who is right or wrong. Can you do me the honor of letting us join hands to overcome this difficulty together?”

Hearing this, Li Yingling looked Hu Qi up and down.

No wonder he could pull together such a demon nation in a place like this. His skill at smoothing things over... was truly quite good.

The old fox, having steadied itself, straightened its robes, quite satisfied with Hu Qi’s words in its heart.

You must know, it had put in a great deal of effort to teach Hu Qi to say such appropriate pleasantries.

But before Li Yingling could reply.

The Great Wu Demon King, whom the group had waited for a long time without any response, now took the initiative to appear.

”Brother Kunshan! Have you finally decided you can’t bear to watch them bully me like this?”

Cui Hao and Lin Luoyu glanced sideways.

It was a sturdy bull demon clad in resplendent golden armor, standing at least four meters tall. On its rather rough bovine face, a look of being clearly moved could be seen.

It ran over in two steps, ignoring Li Yingling and the others who had been waiting for it for a good while, and went straight to hug Hu Qi.

Hu Qi felt a bit awkward, but still hugged the Great Wu Demon King and said with a sincere tone:

”What’s wrong? Brother Niu?”

Ignoring the baffled expressions of the little demons around them, the Great Wu Demon King complained with a sense of grievance:

”Recently, there’s a Golden Core cultivator from the human race with extremely high cultivation who destroyed one of my forward outposts. You know my own cultivation is meager.”

”A few days ago, I only wanted to go back and invite one or two demon kings to guard this front line with me. But what happened? That group of demon kings all bullied me for my low cultivation. Not only could I not recruit anyone, but in just two days, they rushed me back, just telling me to wait on this mountain to die.”

”They spoke of joint effort and building the demon nation together, but now they only want this little bull to die alone.”

”Big Brother, you tell me, what kind of logic is that?”

Hearing this, Hu Qi patted the Great Wu Demon King’s back with his tiger paw.

Regarding the old fox’s choice of person this time, he was completely convinced.

This kind of shameless and death-fearing individual was indeed very suitable for plotting an escape together.

However, even if they were to discuss an escape, it shouldn’t be proclaimed so brazenly in front of so many demons.

This kind of matter naturally could not be discussed on the table.

Hu Qi, as if by instinct, spat out his practiced official-sounding words: ”Brother Niu has indeed been wronged. I will certainly give you an explanation for this matter, but I came today for a more pressing matter to discuss with you, Brother Niu.”

The Great Wu Demon King was stunned upon hearing this, and instantly felt that the Hu Qi in his arms was not warm at all, but had become ice-cold.

He let go of Hu Qi, his face showing a bit of difficulty as he said: ”Discuss what matter...”

The old fox glanced at the situation on the field, knew it was its turn to appear, and coughed lightly, saying:

”Our King naturally empathizes with the Great Wu Demon King’s hardships, and understands even more that the Great Wu Demon King’s heart is known by all demons—his desire to build the demon nation together. He has come specially to fulfill this dream.”

The Great Wu Demon King was stunned upon hearing this. Everyone in the demon race knows I want to build the demon nation?

Aren’t they just forcing me to the front lines because they think I’ll definitely be the first to run away?

If everyone knows something, it should be that I want to run away...

But when the Great Wu Demon King saw the old fox’s gaze, an expression that said ”I understand you perfectly, it’s just what you’re thinking,”

a wave of joy surged into his mind, and he suddenly felt that life’s surprises came too quickly.

Who in the entire demon nation doesn’t know that what the old fox says is equivalent to what Hu Qi says.

This was clearly a hint that this was the matter to be discussed.

Then he, the Great Wu Demon King, could consider it his bounden duty for the demon nation.

The Great Wu Demon King quickly said: ”Big Brother, please come in and talk!”
