King Qin Guang's words were full of threats, suggesting that none of those who could sit in this position were easy to talk to.
I pretended to be calm, picked up the teacup, took a small sip of the tea on the table, and then looked up to meet King Qin Guang's gaze.
I could clearly see the surprise on King Qin Guang's face, though it was only for a moment, I still managed to catch it.
His words were nothing but intimidation, and intimidation cannot cause harm. As long as I am not afraid, his intimidation is useless.
I just picked up my teacup to drink tea, partly to ease the tense atmosphere, and partly to bolster my courage.
Otherwise, my soul couldn't have come to the underworld because I was truly thirsty.
I observed everyone's actions from the very beginning. King Qin Guang was surprised but then calmed down, Chu Ya had an interesting expression, while King Zhuan Lun acted as if he hadn't seen anything.
Although I'm not entirely sure whether he was pretending or had ulterior motives, none of that matters to me. I've done all I can.
I looked up and met King Qin Guang's gaze, then let out a long sigh and said:
“Your Highness King Qin Guang, although we have come uninvited and have a request of you, your opening statement is a threat. Is this not a breach of hospitality?”
"Judging from the environment of your room, you must have many important figures visiting you regularly. Does His Highness treat them the same way?"
I didn't intend to provoke King Qin Guang, since it wouldn't benefit me at all; however, I wanted to wait for a word.
Sure enough, right after I finished speaking, King Qin Guang said to me in a contemptuous tone:
"Oh? My guests naturally hold positions that allow me to interact with them, and they also have extraordinary status. And you?"
"What makes you think you can be my guest, you little brat with yellow hair?"
That's right, that's exactly what I've been waiting for!
That last sentence was a hook I set out to lure him into saying those words.
And that's exactly what we wanted to achieve.
I leaned on the ground, slowly stood up, and walked to King Qin Guang's table.
When King Qin Guang saw me walking towards him, he did not stop me much, but just frowned slightly and said nothing.
I walked to a spot two meters away from King Qin Guang's table, and, staring intently into his eyes, said:
"Not long ago, the drought demon appeared, and all living beings were like lambs to the slaughter. The underworld soldiers were killed, and the laws of the underworld were rendered meaningless."
"And all the princes remained secluded, leaving only four judges to guard the gates. The moment the judges returned to the underworld, the drought demon attacked the gates of hell,"
"I think His Highness Prince Qin Guang must be aware of this matter."
Actually, I was also panicking inside. After all, if the other party refused to admit it and continued to act shamelessly, then I really wouldn't be able to do anything.
To my surprise, after I finished speaking, King Qin Guang nodded heavily, though he managed to conceal the emotion in his eyes.
Seeing that King Qin Guang acknowledged it, I continued:
"And it was I who took the brunt of that critical blow with my own body."
After I finished speaking, everyone's expression changed.
King Qin Guang's eyes widened instantly, King Zhuanlun almost stood up, and Chuya looked on with curiosity, since he had never heard me mention these things before.
However, King Qin Guang quickly coughed twice, pretending not to care: "And then? So you got killed and ended up here?"
I ignored King Qin Guang's teasing and simply shook my head.
"If I had really been beaten to death, I would have accepted it. But as you know, not only was I not beaten to death, but I also completely eliminated the drought demon, this great scourge."
Upon hearing this, King Yama could no longer contain himself and jumped up, shouting, "What did you say? You destroyed that drought demon who had lived for over two thousand years!"
"Little girl, you can't brag like that!"
King Yama's voice rose eight octaves higher than before, clearly wanting to confirm once again whether what I said was true or false.
"If Your Highnesses do not believe me, you are free to investigate for yourselves. I think this matter will not be difficult for you to investigate."
Even Chuya stood up at this moment, smiling as she came to my side.
“What this young girl said is true. I can see the cause and effect of all this. Now that you mention it, old man, you really owe this young girl a huge favor.”
Seeing that Chuya was also speaking up for me, I felt even more confident. After all, the fact that this person could directly call King Qin Guang "old fellow" proved that his status was at least no lower than King Qin Guang's.
Furthermore, considering how King Yama saw Hatsune when they were outside, it's even more clear that Hatsune's strength is terrifying; otherwise, even Yama wouldn't be afraid of him.
"So, do you think I am qualified to be your guest?"
This was just the right time. With Chuya's help, and the things I had done, King Qin Guang was clearly moved.
King Qin Guang remained silent for a while, but finally nodded and said:
"Hmm, what an amazing young girl! She's truly a case of the younger generation surpassing the older. Have all the young people reached this level these days?"
I cupped my hands in thanks and replied, "Thank you for the seat, Your Highness Prince Qin Guang. So, am I now qualified to ask you for a favor?"
"Of course, I won't take your things for nothing. In exchange, I can grant you one request."
I actually thought about it a lot, and in the end I realized that there was really nothing that King Qin Guang could think of, except to do one thing for him.
If the other party agrees to the condition, that would be good. If they don't, you can ask them to propose their own conditions. The problem is that things might not be negotiable.
