Cheng Mei sighed.
"You always say I'm a grumpy old man, so be it."
"When Niannian was undergoing her tribulation, her tail was struck off by lightning. She didn't hold any resentment; instead, she worked even harder than before. You always say you're the most cunning fox demon!"
"But your method of rolling is wrong; no matter how you roll it, it won't work!"
"But the method of reciting is the right one!"
A soft, cold laugh.
"Wow! That's a nice way to put it!"
"That idiot of hers, all she thinks about is helping humans!"
"Is this what they call cultivation? Demons shouldn't be involved in human affairs at all!"
Cheng Mei countered with a question.
"Then when you possess a human body, aren't you participating in human affairs?"
"If it weren't for your interference, Chu Lian could have reunited with her beloved, and she wouldn't be in a coma now."
She pouted slightly.
"She can only blame her bad luck; I just happened to run into her!"
"Look, even now, you still don't think you're wrong!" Cheng Mei shook her head helplessly.
"You can always find a reason for everything you do! You always say—how could I be wrong? It's always someone else who's wrong!"
She said it with a gentle and confident tone.
"I am a woman! I deserve to be respected!"
"Even if I made a mistake, why do you have to keep harping on it?!"
"If we don't point out your mistakes, are we going to let you keep making them?" Cheng Mei retorted.
This question left Roumei speechless.
And at this time.
The door was kicked open.
Ye Mu carried Chu Lian in.
"Master, Chu Lian's breathing is getting weaker and weaker. Please find a way to save her!"
Ye Qianqian quickly followed her in.
He grasped Chu Lian's hand and carefully took her pulse.
I was stunned.
[Demonic Poison! Sister Chu Lian has been poisoned by a demonic poison!]
Only the fairy who poisoned this poison can cure it!
[There is no cure for others!]
Cheng Mei immediately said to Rou Mei.
"If you cure Chu Lian's poison, I might spare your life! I'll let you go!"
Roumei said confidently.
"I don't understand, unless you hand over the position of Fox Demon King to me!"
"Even if I give it to you, the fox demon clan will never accept it!"
"Those who covet this position will surely find a chance to kill you!"
"How confident are you that you can fight against those whose sorcery surpasses yours?"
Roumei gave a cold laugh.
"Heh! You old fool, you think you can fool me?"
"Don't think I don't know that when a fox demon ascends to the position of demon king, the previous demon king will transform all his cultivation into a demon core."
"After the new demon king eats it, its cultivation level will increase greatly!"
"Even if other fox demons wanted to deal with me, they wouldn't be able to fight me at all!"
Ye Mu looked at Cheng Mei.
Cheng Mei nodded.
"That's true."
"Then what are you waiting for? Quickly announce to the fox demon clan that I am the next Fox Demon King!"
"As long as I sit in this position, I will cure Chu Lian of the poison!"
Ye Mu frowned.
How do I know if you keep your word?
Cheng Mei said.
"Before I transform into a demon core, I will leave behind a fragment of my soul. Only after I am certain that Chu Lian has been truly cured will I transform myself into a demon core."
Roumei immediately said.
"Old man, so you're saying you agree to let me be the next Fox Demon King?"
"Yes! I have no choice but to do this to save lives."
Ye Mu opened his mouth.
"But the consequence of doing so is that the fox demon clan will likely be thrown into chaos!"
Ye Qianqian nodded.
"Yes, someone like Rou Mei, once she sits on the throne of the Fox Demon King, will definitely eliminate dissidents and kill all the fox demons who pose a threat to her!"
"Even Niannian, whom you just mentioned, could become a threat to her!"
Cheng Mei sighed.
"I had no other choice but to save them. As for what will happen to the fox demon clan, that's up to fate!"
Cheng Mei couldn't possibly ignore the life and death of her fox clan.
He had already come up with a solution.
He's just saying these things to lower Roumei's guard.
"Tsk tsk tsk! Old man, you actually sacrificed your people for a human!"
"I really don't know how someone as saintly as you managed to become the Fox Demon King!"
"The previous Fox Demon King must have been blind to have chosen you!"
"Useless thing!"
Cheng Mei said.
"Now that we've reached an agreement, let's go back!"
"I hereby announce in front of all the fox demons that you are the next Fox Demon King!"
"good!"
Cheng Mei transformed into the form of a fox.
It is a pure white fox.
It's just that it's much bigger.
Ye Qianqian was terrified.
Wow! This level of cultivation is incredible!
However, since he can sit in the position of Fox Demon King, his intelligence must be quite high!
Would he disregard the lives of his own demon race and relinquish his position to an idiot?
Could it be that he already has another plan to deal with Rou Mei, and is only pretending to comply now in order to save Sister Chu Lian first?
[I have a feeling my prediction about the plot is correct! Never mind, let's just follow along! Perfect, let me see what the fox demon clan is like!]
Ye Mu quickly picked up Chu Lian and sat down.
He then lifted Ye Qianqian up in front of him.
