The little demon queen was shocked, not expecting the other party to be so ruthless.
She couldn't help but feel a little self-deprecating, after all, she was the dignified queen of the demon race, but now that the demon emperor was dead, she had lost all her prestige.
Of course, this thought only flashed through her mind for a moment, and she quickly realized the reality. She didn't care about any vague and illusory dignity as empress, because she had come here to ask for a favor.
Moreover, the fact that he was willing to meet her because of Zuan's influence is a good start.
Speaking of which, Zuan really has a lot of influence. The other party said that, obviously to make Zuan owe him a favor. What is his relationship with this mermaid princess that would make her go to such lengths for him?
The little demon queen quickly composed herself and began to explain her purpose to Shang Liuyu.
Before the other party could refuse, she proactively offered some generous terms.
This time, Shang Liuyu did not immediately refuse, but pretended to be in a difficult position, using this as an excuse to make an even bigger demand for benefits for the sea creatures.
The little demon queen was no pushover either, and she wouldn't give in to him all the time.
Zuan, standing to the side, was dumbfounded. He watched as the two delicate girls engaged in such a fierce verbal battle, their language style truly sharp and direct.
They even offered conditions that the other party would never agree to, expecting the other party to get angry and walk away. But as they bargained, they actually started to reach an agreement.
Chiwen, watching from the side, was eager to try, his gaze sweeping over the little demon queen's stunning face and curvaceous figure. Finally, he couldn't help but say, "I also want to add a condition, I want..."
Before he could finish speaking, Shang Liuyu glared at him and said, "Get lost!"
"Oh!" Chiwen slunk away to the corner to continue being invisible. He had been afraid of this aunt since he was a child. Although she looked incredibly beautiful, she always beat him up, which left him with psychological trauma.
Seeing this, Yu Yanluo was a little worried. It seemed that none of Azu's female confidantes were easy to deal with. What if they didn't get along in the future?
Well, we can ask Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue for help then. We've already forged a deep friendship by sharing life and death in the unknown land.
If Shang Liuyu were to use the power of the sea tribe to intimidate, she would be more inclined to seek out Yan Xuehen, since Yun Jianyue's murderous aura was too strong.
Given our friendship along the way, Yan Xuehen should be able to help me, right?
At this point, Shang Liuyu and the Little Demon Queen finally reached a conclusion to their bargaining. The Little Demon Queen offered the Sea Clan various generous conditions in exchange for their support of the Little Prince's ascension to the throne.

Shang Liuyu was very satisfied; this time, he had secured a right that the sea creatures could not have originally had.
The Little Demon Queen was equally satisfied. Although the Sea Clan's power in the Royal Court was not particularly strong at present, their strength among the Demon Clan was of paramount importance.
Having their support will save us a lot of trouble later on.
As for giving so much, it's really a bit of an empty promise. Anyway, the son hasn't ascended the throne yet, so these things don't belong to them. Does public money count?
If she were to ascend the throne, she would feel that such a price was worthwhile.
Next, to show his sincerity, Shang Liuyu asked Chiwen to gather the strength of the sea tribe in the royal court to help the little demon queen later.
As for herself, she doesn't show up. Firstly, she prefers quiet by nature and doesn't like to get involved in these things.
Secondly, it serves as a double insurance. If the young prince's side fails tonight, she can come out and blame everything on Chiwen. After all, Chiwen is a notorious playboy, so it's not surprising that he would do such a thing. This way, when the other princes ascend the throne, the sea tribe won't be blamed.
Chiwen had no idea he had become the scapegoat. After learning that he was to help the little demon, he eagerly went out to gather people.
Zuan then led the Little Demon Queen and Yu Yanluo towards the Demon Clan's encampment. With Princess Soren acting as an intermediary, they successfully met with the Demon Clan's representative from the royal court.
Just like her encounter with the sea tribe, the little demon queen was haggling with the demons.
Clearly, the demons didn't want to get involved in this matter, nor did they approve of the young prince's ascension to the throne, but they couldn't resist the little demon queen's generous offer...
In the end, they gave the greater benefits to the demons and successfully persuaded them to join them.
Like the sea tribe, they simply had Princess Soren bring some of her subordinates with them, so that if anything happened, the blame could be placed on Princess Soren, saying that she had a close personal relationship with Zaun and that it was her private matter, unrelated to the demons.
The young demon queen cursed the old fox inwardly, but she also knew that achieving this effect was already quite good given the current situation.
As they emerged from the Demon Clan's embassy, the Little Demon Queen gazed at him with a smile in her alluring eyes: "Do you have any other female lovers? Shall we make another trip?"
Zuan was speechless: "What nonsense are you talking about? Where did you get so many lovers?"
The Little Demon Queen said, "I'm not joking with you, I'm asking sincerely. I've found that as long as you have a girl you love, that faction is usually fine."
After saying that, he glanced at Yu Yanluo beside him.
Yu Yanluo wondered what she was looking at.
The Little Demon Queen smiled and said, "Sister Yu, I was pressed for time before and didn't have time to tell you some things. Thank you for your support this time. Once it's done, I will definitely help you restore the glory of the Snake Clan."
The snake clan was once a powerful clan among the demon races, but unfortunately, after the disappearance of the previous Medusa Queen, the entire snake clan declined.
Yu Yanluo's eyes lit up. Although she knew it was a tactic to win people over, she couldn't help but feel happy.
