"Ji Qu, how are you?"
When Ji Qu heard the words "I hope you are well", he couldn't help but sneer.
"You're really sociable. Did you learn that from your late father?"
This sarcasm, which showed no respect at all, brought the conversation to a standstill.
Obviously, Ji Qu was not afraid of the current Dragon King at all, nor did he have any intention of having a good relationship with him.
Outsiders don’t know the secrets of the Dragon Spirit royal family, but Ji Qu knows it very well.
After all, before escaping from the sea, he and his fellow tribesmen had been wandering in the first and second research institutes of the sea clan for many years.
There are royal relatives in the research institute, and no one will be on guard against the snake-tailed people who have been experimental subjects for generations.
There are more secrets that can be heard than outsiders imagine.
Therefore, it is useless to pretend in front of Ji Qu.
The Dragon King knew what he meant, so he stopped trying to hide his feelings and spoke directly to the point.
"I believe that no one feels comfortable being controlled by others these days. Are you interested in joining us?"
Ji Qu raised his eyebrows, did not reply immediately, but asked back.
"'us'?"
"Of course," the Dragon King's voice came out slowly, "It's not just you and me who have been robbed by His accumulated power."
The Dragon King seemed to have guessed that he would not rashly agree to cooperate, and added.
"This is not an alliance, but a temporary collaboration for a common goal."
Ji Qu knew that this almost indicated that the Dragon King wanted to break free from the shackles that enveloped the Yutian Realm.
It is not clear who instigated it or how long it had been planned.
In the current situation of insufficient intelligence, he will not give any definite answer.
This would be the same even if the Dragon King mentioned in passing that there were other partners joining.
Back then, the powerful alliance of the Beast King, the Insect Queen, and the Dragon Beard Son all ended up being suppressed.
How did you, who was promoted to the Yutian realm in the last few decades, become so powerful?
Unless more than half of the Yutian Realm join, Jiqu will not make any commitment.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Excellency the Dragon King, but I'd better forget about joining your plan."
The thorny fingers exerted force lightly, and the next moment, the hard scales shattered instantly.
…
“Crack!”
The sound of scales shedding and shattering echoed in the Dragon King's Hall.
What followed was the terrifying pressure that slowly spread from the Dragon King due to his unhappy mood.
But he did not get angry.
After all, the demon clan is currently in a hostile relationship with the sea clan, and Jiqu still has old grudges with the sea clan.
Rejection was to be expected.
"Father, please calm down. The demon race and our race have long held grudges. It is normal for them to refuse to cooperate."
Yuanli's voice was heard from another intact shed scale, and he also expressed understanding of why the demon clan would refuse this matter.
But then he changed the subject and continued.
"But our plan requires as many Yutian Realms as possible. The human race alone is probably not enough."
"If the Demonic Clan's Heavenly Control Realm refuses to cooperate, it will only harm our plans."
What neither of them said was that if the Demon Clan’s Yutian Realm sided with the planet’s will, their success rate would drop further.
"It seems you have some ideas."
Hearing Yuan Li's words that he wanted to insist on winning over the Yutian Realm of the Demon Clan, the Dragon King withdrew his leaked energy.
"Yes, please allow me to go to the demon tribe's territory to persuade that gentleman."
"absurd!"
Before Yuan Li finished speaking, the Dragon King interrupted his proposal.
"You are the crown prince. It is not your place to go deep into the enemy camp! I will send someone else."
But Yuan Li did not give up, and his voice rang out again.
"Father, this operation is extremely important. It concerns the succession of the Dragon Spirit Clan's royal family."
"Furthermore, the Crown Prince personally went to the demon tribe to negotiate in order to prevent the people from suffering from the ravages of war. This would also help him ascend the throne smoothly and win the hearts of the people."
The Dragon King thought for a moment.
Indeed, there was a reason why the Dragon King was determined to break free from his restraints this time.
Previously, the Dragon King had never been bound by the will of the planet.
It was when he personally attacked Yueluozhou that the will of the planet came and punished him.
However, the previous Dragon King, his father, was not at the Heaven Control Realm.
In other words, the experience passed down by the previous Dragon King is of no use to the current situation.
The Dragon King can only find an opportunity to break free from the constraints of the planet's will when he finds that the constraints are more severe than he expected.
Otherwise, he would not be able to transfer most of his energy into his successor when passing on the throne.
This is equivalent to cutting off the inheritance of the Dragon Spirit royal family.
Therefore, the Dragon King had no choice but to challenge the shackles around him.
After thinking for a while, the Dragon King finally made up his mind.
"I will let Yuanshun return to you tomorrow."
"Go ahead, and be safe."
Yuan Li's voice came out with solemnity and decisiveness, "Yes."
But what the Dragon King didn't know was that the person communicating with him on the other side of the scales was just a puppet that was about to become the fuse.
…
In the middle of the night, the battle between the human race and the sea race was secretly paused at some point.
Strangely, both sides stopped making any moves, as if they had entered some kind of negotiation stage.
On the other hand, the demon clan's attack on the sea clan is still continuing.
But the sea people had already reacted and launched a counterattack without any constraints from the human race.
In addition, the demon army has already penetrated deep into the ocean, making logistical transportation increasingly difficult.
The sea clan troops gradually gained the upper hand, and for a while, both sides suffered losses.
However, the demon clan's unstoppable momentum was completely shattered.
Just when the battle was at a stalemate.
Near a garrison base on the front line between the sea clan and the demon clan, the mourning siren came along with the resentment gathered from the war.
The increasingly thick black fog obscured all outside perception of the resentful soul within, making his arrival silent.
The Siren did not stop to absorb the resentment here as usual.
Before that, he still needs to complete the task entrusted to him by Zi Sui.
The black fog drifted on the lightless seabed, crossing thousands of meters at an extremely fast speed and arriving in front of the sea clan’s military garrison base.
After entering the base, he followed Zi Sui's instructions and wrapped a dark green ball that emitted an irritating aura with black mist, and then threw it into the tent where the crown prince was.
After doing this, he can leave.
Next, he just needs to continue to absorb resentment step by step until the time is right.
The vengeful spirits come quickly and go quickly.
The sea soldiers who were taking a break did not notice the arrival of the invaders.
Only Yuanli opened his blood-red eyes in the dark tent.
He stood up quietly, took the black mist away and put it away.
After daybreak, he will set off for the demon clan's territory in the central part of Yueluozhou to meet the demon clan's Yutianjing.
This black fog and the things it wraps will go with Yuanli.
