I reached out and released the demonic energy within me, attempting to resonate with the demonic soul.
A voice, like that of a god, resounded in my mind:
"Your Highness! Your presence has been detected by the Demon Eye!"
Soon, the lamp slowly went out, and a faint figure appeared before them.
The figure was extremely tall, like a giant, standing a full five meters tall.
Clearly, that is the Demon Soul who calls himself the Demon Eye!
Shi Jiu also bowed to Mo Tong, but he didn't kneel down on one knee like he did with me.
"So it's Lord Demon Eye here? Your Majesty is still quite worried about Her Majesty the Queen."
Demon Eyes frowned slightly: "Oh? Who are you?"
Then it dawned on her: "You're Xiao Jiu? Long time no see. Did you bring Her Highness the Princess here?"
The conversation between the two of them left me a little confused; I couldn't quite understand what they were saying.
What are you two talking about?
"What princess? What's going on? So I'm the only one who doesn't know anything?"
Shi Jiu was somewhat embarrassed: "Lord Demon Eye, Her Majesty the Queen does not like the title 'Princess,' so please be mindful of it in the future."
Mo Tong scratched his head and suddenly said, "Eh, Your Majesty? Another new way of addressing me?"
"How can there be a different name every time you're reborn? I remember there must be four or five by now."
Shi Jiu looked helpless: "Who knows? Just call her whatever the Queen tells you to call her."
I glared at the two of them and said, "You two really don't treat me like family. Is it really okay to talk about me like this in front of me?"
Mo Tong smiled somewhat awkwardly, "Your Majesty, is there something you wish to discuss with me?"
I shrugged: "Shi Jiu mentioned you to me last time, so I thought I'd come and see. I just happened to have taken on a tricky job and need a helper."
"Can you defeat the ferocious beast?"
I asked directly, since I didn't know the extent of this Demon Eye's power.
Demon Eyes was taken aback by my question: "What? What kind of ferocious beast?"
"That one, yes, the Taotie!"
"The one from the Four Great Fiends of Antiquity, his soul has now escaped from the underworld. I promised King Qin Guang that I would help him bring the soul of the ferocious beast back, and I was wondering if you could help me?" I explained to Mo Tong.
Mo Tong crossed his arms and said, "It's just a little Taotie. I can take it down in three minutes."
I stared wide-eyed, never expecting that Demon Eye would be so confident in his own strength: "Really? You must be joking with me, that's the second of the Four Fiends!"
With an arrogant look, Mo Tong said, "You were the one who joked with me first. That Taotie is a monster from more than 6,000 years ago. If it appeared in front of me, I would cry, believe it or not?"
My face darkened; this Demon Eye seemed so unreliable to me.
I stared coldly at Shi Jiu, wanting him to explain, but Shi Jiu shrank back.
"Your Majesty, please don't look at me. Lord Demon Eye's fighting style is indeed not suitable for fighting ferocious beasts head-on."
