"Brother Jinnian... do you know what preparations are needed to meet the Demon King?"
After a long while, when Song Jinnian's mood finally returned to normal, Gu Qingze slowly spoke hesitantly.
"Huh?" Song Jinnian looked incredulous and pointed at himself in surprise. "Brother Qingze, are you asking me about the preparations needed for an audience with the Demon King?"
Huh? For some reason, Song Jinnian's reaction at this moment always gave him an inexplicable, indescribable sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen it somewhere not long ago.
Although Gu Qingze thought so in his heart, he nodded very seriously.
"Well, Brother Jinnian, after all, you are from the demon clan. Lingxiao and I thought that Brother Jinnian should understand the many rules of the demon world better than us, so we came to ask you for some advice."
When Song Jinnian heard this, the look of disbelief on his face became even more intense, and he looked at them in surprise.
"Brothers, I remember telling you before that our Song family has been engaged in business for generations. Do you understand? This means that it has basically nothing to do with things like power."
"Let's not discuss anything else for now. I have no idea what the Demon King looks like, and my parents never taught me anything about it. So... I'm definitely powerless in this matter."
Gu Qingze frowned slightly, a hint of disappointment flashing across his face, and said:
"Brother Jinnian, do you have any other ideas? Our audience with the Demon King is of great importance. If we can't make some preparations, I'm afraid we'll be in big trouble."
Ling Xiao echoed from the side, "Yes, Brother Jinnian, we really have no other options, so we've come to you for advice. I hope you can give us some pointers."
Song Jinnian shook his head helplessly, sighed deeply, and said, "Brothers, I really have the will but not the ability."
"Wait a minute? Are you going to meet the Demon King?"
Song Jinnian finally reacted and looked at them in surprise.
Gu Qingze also remembered that they had not yet told Song Jinnian about this matter, so he explained.
"Well, this is what Senior Brother Helan came up with for us. The Xuanyin area of the demon world is too dangerous and difficult to enter. If we can get the help of the demon king, it won't be difficult for us to enter."
Song Jinnian showed sympathy when he heard this:
"It turns out that joining the Wanjian Sect was a good choice for me. The Qingyun Sect is too harsh. In order to complete the task assigned by the master, they actually went to such lengths, even alarming the Demon King..."
"Brother Qingze, Brother Lingxiao, you guys have really worked hard."
Looking at Song Jinnian's sincere admiration, Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao felt mixed emotions and didn't know how to react.
Song Jinnian seemed to be imagining many touching scenes in his mind. He wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, looked at them, and said.
"Actually... I've thought of a way. If he were here, he might know something."
Gu Qingze looked bewildered: "Him?"
Song Jinnian did not answer, but just looked at them with a faint smile on his face.
"Come on, brothers, let's try our luck."
Try your luck?
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao exchanged a glance, knowing that there might still be hope. A glimmer of hope rekindled in their eyes, and they quickly replied, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Jinnian."
So, the two followed Song Jinnian closely. Seeing that Song Jinnian was familiar with the road, they thought that he must have been here many times.
"We're here." Song Jinnian stopped at the door of a room and knocked gently.
They waited for a long time, but there was no movement from inside the door. Just when they thought there was no monster inside, the door suddenly opened.
All I saw was a young demon with his clothes casually draped over his shoulders, loose and baggy, his collarbone even faintly visible, and he was yawning.
I don’t know if he hadn’t transformed properly or if he did it on purpose, but nine huge furry tails were swinging behind him and his ears were standing straight up.
"Who is it? How dare you disturb my rest?"
Song Jinnian hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Brother Xiaofeng, it's been a long time."
He Lan Feng looked at him, ignoring his polite words. He simply continued to ask, "So... who are you? Don't act like you know me so well. Do I know you?"
Song Jinnian showed an expected helpless look. He gestured with his hands, not knowing what he was gesturing at, and then pointed at himself: "It's me, Song Jinnian."
When Helan Feng heard the name, he seemed to remember something. He looked the figure in front of him up and down and said sarcastically, "The difference between your original form and your transformed form is really too big!"
Song Jinnian smiled helplessly: "Really? Helan just said the same thing to me."
He Lanfeng said seriously: "This is true, you have indeed changed a lot."
Song Jinnian stopped discussing the topic with him and asked as if reminiscing about the past: "How is it? What has Brother Xiaofeng been doing these years? Is he still relying on being kept as a mistress for a living?"
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao behind him were a little surprised when they heard it. They seemed to have... heard some extraordinary conversation. Could he be assassinated because of it?
He Lanfeng retorted, "What the hell is 'supporting'? Song Jinnian, how come you still tend to use the wrong word after all these years? I rely on my family for a living, and my family is willing to support me. What? Do you have any objections?"
