On July 1, 528 of the Demonic Calendar, after a year of war, the Lord of the Underworld, Ming Cang, and the Lord of the Burning Domain, Fen Ji, negotiated in the ruins of Yancheng...
the ruins of Yancheng.
Since Yan Xiong set fire to Yancheng, Yancheng has become a deserted ruin. Except for wars, basically no one comes here at other times.
However, since yesterday, some demons have come to the ruins of Yancheng one after another - the subordinates of Fen Ji and Ming Cang.
"Hey, what do you think, how will the negotiation go this time?" A demon wearing a black hat asked his companion beside him in a low voice.
"It's hard to say..." The companion touched his beard and said slowly.
"Humph, what's wrong with that? Of course, our Netherworld is the most powerful." A demon in a black uniform not far away heard their conversation and said with an arrogant look on his face.
"Huh?" A demon in a crimson uniform heard the black uniform demon's words and walked over to grab his collar, "Do you look down on our Burning Domain?"
"What do you want to do? Fight?" Another black uniform demon walked over, "The Burning Domain is really a bunch of reckless men."
"Hey, you Netherworld..." The Burning Domain demons who were attracted by the surrounding rolled up their sleeves and were about to rush over.
"Want to fight? Come on."
"Hey, hey, hey, who bumped into me?"
"Tsk, so noisy."
Bang——
"Be quiet."
A man in black slapped the table vigorously, releasing the pressure of his cultivation, and the demons who were still noisy just now immediately quieted down.
"..."
The air became quiet, and the demons looked at each other, not daring to speak.
"Here he comes, Lord Fen is here." A thin demon ran over from a distance.
"Lord Ming Cang is here too."
Following the words of the demon who reported the news, Lord Ming Cang of the Nether Realm and Lord Fen Ji of the Burning Realm came from two directions.
"I have met the Lord."
"Lord."
"Lord."
The demons at the scene quickly stood up to greet the two lords.
"Yes."
Ming Cang nodded slightly and responded.
"Tsk."
Fen Ji sneered, and then sat down in the seat of the negotiation room.
"Sit down."
Ming Cang smiled good-temperedly, then walked over and sat down, looking at the demons standing around.
"Yes." "As
you wish."
After seeing the two lords sitting down, the demons around also sat behind the two lords according to their factions.
This negotiation room was temporarily built two days ago, specifically for this negotiation.
The negotiation room was circular, with the two lords each occupying half. Sitting in the front were the negotiators of the Nether Realm and the Fen Realm, followed by the city lords brought by the two lords, and then the two lords, and the guards sat at the end.
Even though the two lords are already here, they will not negotiate in person. The negotiating judges are responsible for the negotiations. They are just here to be witnesses.
Of course, if the negotiations fail, the two of them may even fight each other...
"Ahem." The negotiating judge of the Burning Domain received the look from the Burning Domain Lord and said, "Then let's get started."
The negotiating judge of the Nether Realm glanced at Ming Cang, who nodded. Then the negotiating judge of the Nether Realm took out the prepared materials and said, "Well, let's get started."
…………
On a tree not far from the negotiation room of Yancheng.
Rong Du stood on the tree branch and looked at the negotiation room.
"Hmm?"
Rong Du, looking at the distance, suddenly lowered his head.
Under the tree, there was a little blue-haired girl of about seven or eight years old who was looking up at Rong Du.
"Ah, handsome big brother."
"..." Rong Du jumped down from the tree and looked at the little blue-haired girl helplessly, "Men can't be described as beautiful."
"But, big brother is really handsome." The little blue-haired girl looked at Rong Du with her big blue eyes, innocent.
Helplessly shaking his head, Rong Du slightly bent down to look at her and asked, "What's your name? Why are you here?"
"Um..." The little girl tilted her head and said, "My name is Lan Nian, I'm here with my sister."
"...Who is your sister?" Rong Du looked at Lan Nian in surprise, and he had a guess in his mind.
"My sister's name is Lan Yi, and she is a subordinate of the Lord of the Burning Domain."
Rong Du raised his hand and touched Lan Nian
's hair, "Then why are you staying here alone? Not with your sister." Lan Nian pouted and slapped Rong Du's hand away, then raised his hand and clenched it into a fist, "My sister has something important to do, I can do it alone."
"Aren't you afraid to be alone?" Looking at Lan Nian's serious look, Rong Du couldn't help but smile.
"No. Besides, I still have Lan Tuan."
"Lan Tuan?"
"Wait a minute, I'll release it."
As he said that, Lan Nian stepped back a few steps and made a few complicated gestures with his hands.
Bang -
after a puff of smoke, a huge dark blue monster covered with tentacles appeared in the open space next to it.
"..."
Rong Du looked at the huge monster in front of him in silence.
"This is Lan Tuan." Lan Nian walked to Lan Tuan with a smile on his face, then looked at Rong Du and said.
"...It's a very strange pet..."
Rong Du forced a smile with difficulty. Rong Du, who was used to seeing all kinds of strange monsters in the Demon Mountain Range, was also surprised by the blue monster in front of him.
"Right, Lan Tuan has been with me since I was a child, I like it very much." Lan Nian happily introduced Lan Tuan to Rong Du, and then as if he thought of something, he pouted and said: "However, Lan Tuan always likes to eat random things, and he will eat strange things if you are not paying attention..."
"Eat random things?" Rong Du frowned as he looked at the huge dark blue monster in front of him, and thought of the information written in the battle report some time ago that a man-eating monster appeared on the battlefield.
It seems that... the man-eating monster on the battlefield is a huge dark blue monster...
"What did it eat randomly?"
Rong Du darkened his eyes, and then asked with a smile on his face.
"Well... maybe some low-level demons?" Lan Nian recalled and said: "The Lan group usually eats special demon meat."
"Demons??"
Rong Du looked at the little girl in front of him in surprise, as if he couldn't believe that the words just now were said by her.
They are all demons, and the Lan group eating demons is equivalent to eating humans in the human world. Although Rong Du has long seen the cold-bloodedness of demons, he didn't expect a seven or eight-year-old girl to say such a thing.
"Yes, Lan Tuan has been eating demon flesh since he was a child." Lan Nian seemed to not understand why Rong Du's face turned ugly, and asked in confusion: "Pretty big brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." Rong Du took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and then looked at Lan Nian with a smile, "Xiao Nian, can you promise me one thing?"
"What is it? Pretty brother." Lan Nian looked at Rong Du intently.
"..." Looking at Lan Nian's clear and transparent eyes, Rong Du sighed silently in his heart, "That is, don't tell anyone that you have seen me."
"Okay, this is a secret between me and pretty brother." Lan Nian agreed affirmatively.
"Well, then I'm leaving, bye." Rong Du waved to Lan Nian and turned away.
"Pretty brother, can we meet again?" Lan Nian looked at Rong Du's back and couldn't help shouting.
"Maybe."
As the words fell, Rong Du also disappeared.
...
"Well, the pretty brother is gone."
Lan Nian walked to Lan Tuan and sat down.
"Gu..."
"Wuwu, Lan Tuan, what a pity." Lan Nian hugged one of Lan Tuan's tentacles and said, "It's really a beautiful face, I really want to collect it..."
"Gugugugu."
"No, we can't beat him."
Thinking of the momentum he felt from Rong Du, Lan Nian tried hard to suppress his violently beating heart.
"What a pity..."
Bang-bang-
the sound of an explosion came from the negotiation room in the distance.
"Ah!" Lan Nian hurriedly stood up and hid behind the blue group, then carefully glanced into the distance, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Gugu..."
"A fight?"
"Gugu!" Lan Nian, who was about to speak, was quickly run away by the blue group leader...
The newly built negotiation room was turned into ashes under the attack waves of many demons.
"Fen Ji, don't go too far."
The Lord of the Netherworld, Ming Cang, looked at Fen Ji with a cold face.
"Hehe, you are the one who went too far, right? Ming Cang." The Lord of the Fen Domain, Fen Ji, also looked at Ming Cang with a cold face, then he waved his hand and ordered: "Attack."
Following Fen Ji's order, many demons in the Fen Domain waved various moves to attack the demons in the Netherworld.
"Fen Ji!" Looking at the scene of the battle below, Ming Cang looked at Fen Ji angrily, "Do you really not care about our old friendship at all?"
"Heh, Ming Cang, our friendship ended when my sister died."
Fen Ji said, and didn't care about Ming Cang's reaction, he took the long sword in his hand and attacked.
"...... Um." Ming Cang heard Fen Ji's words, and was stabbed by Fen Ji's sword for a moment.
"Lord!"
Ziying, who was fighting with Lan Yi, saw Ming Cang injured and shouted worriedly.
"You should worry more about yourself."
Lan Yi attacked Ziying with a fierce move.
"Um..." Ziying barely blocked Lan Yi's attack.
After being stabbed, Ming Cang knew that now was not the time to be distracted, and he quickly gathered his energy to deal with Fen Ji's attack.
Crackling, bang, boom -
the battlefield was suddenly in chaos.
……
Rong Du Rao, who was invisible in the distance, watched the scene in front of him with interest.
Looking at the fighting demons, he recalled the information he had obtained before, and then he sat down to eat some melons.
He remembered that there seemed to be intelligence saying that the Lord of the Underworld, Ming Cang, the Lord of the Burning Domain, Fen Ji, and Fen Ji's sister seemed to be childhood friends.
But later, Fen Ji's sister seemed to have died in an accident, and then the two of them fell out. It was not until they became the lords of the two major domains that they occasionally met at some banquets. Even if they met, they basically ignored each other.
Oh, as for the reason why the two lords ignored each other, the demons guessed that in addition to Fen Ji's sister, it might be because Ming Cang stole the person Fen Ji liked.
Of course, this is just a guess, and only the parties involved know the specific situation. Rong Du just listened to it casually as gossip and didn't take it seriously.
"Sir, the people from Hell Island are here."
A message came from a microphone on Rong Du's body.
"Well, wait a little longer."
"Yes."
After a while. Another message came from the microphone: "Sir, the people from the Poison Realm are here too." "
Finally all of them are here." Rong Du stretched his waist, moved around a bit, and then took out the Black Magic Sword, "Xiao Hei, it's time for you to shine."
Buzz————
"Get ready to attack." Rong Du ordered the demon on the other end of the microphone.
"Yes!"
