Chapter 112 The Most Suitable Person to Be Demon Lord
Normally, after the Demon Lord is elected, the new Demon Lord should say a few words in front of everyone.
But today's situation is really different from the past.
After Yan Sui'an of the Hehuan Sect revealed Nan Wang's "true identity", the situation became completely chaotic.
Only the core members of the Hehuan Sect know the story of the undercover agent of the Hehuan Sect, and the general monks have only one impression of this "Hehuan Sect Master" -
"It's the 'Poor and Strange Method' he wrote!"
A certain monk shouted this, and was unanimously agreed by others.
Obviously, the rumor has changed in the process of spreading and has deviated from reality.
It changed from "going undercover in Qingyun Sect to retrieve the Qiongqi Huajin Method" to "it was he who wrote the Qiongqi Huajin Method".
The chaos worsened.
The quasi-demons on the field were arguing endlessly, and the crowds off the field were talking in a cacophony of voices, as noisy as a vegetable market.
The conference simply could not continue.
Fortunately, the most important vote has been cast, and no one has any objection to the result.
So, under Tong Yan's instruction, the leader of the Seven Sins Cult announced that the speech by the new Demon Lord would be held at a later date, and asked everyone to leave first.
Everyone left the table quickly without any hesitation, as if they wanted to go back as quickly as possible to share gossip with other disciples in the sect.
Soon, Nan Wang, who was at a loss, also set out on the return journey, surrounded by a group of disciples of the Tianmo Sect.
…
Half a month later, the Heavenly Demon Cult announced that Nan Wang had officially taken over the position of the Demon Lord. In view of the fact that the current situation in the Northern Secret Realm was too complicated and serious, the inauguration ceremony was postponed and the time would be decided later.
In addition, the Demon Lord is accompanied by three demon envoys, namely Tong Yan, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult, Wu Ge, the leader of the Ghost Corpse Cult, and Zhu Yutang, the current leader of the Charm Hall of the Hehuan Sect.
After all sorts of miscellaneous, true and false news had been circulating for half a month, a new chapter finally arrived.
Regarding this election of the Demon Lord, at least a dozen versions of the story have been circulating in the market, most of which are related to the "love-hate entanglement" between Nanwang, Tongyan and Wuge.
Among them, the one that seems the most outrageous to Nan Wang, but is also the most widely circulated, is that Nan Wang was once an unknown disciple in the Hehuan Sect. Although he had average talent in cultivation, he was extremely talented in "other aspects". He was unwilling to be mediocre, so he left the Hehuan Sect and went to other sects, constantly seducing the leaders of various sects, and finally successfully became the Demon Lord with the help of his "old lovers".
It's really outrageous, and it's really famous.
However, even a rumor as outrageous as this is still slightly inferior to Nanwang's actual experience.
Nan Wang did not counterattack from an unknown disciple of the Demon Sect to become the Demon Lord, but he counterattacked all the way from an unknown but menial disciple who cared about Qingyun Sect, and finally became the Demon Lord of the demon clan.
This legendary experience has far exceeded the upper limit of rumors. Even if it were spread, I'm afraid no one would believe it.
Nan Wang once worried that his identity as a member of the Hehuan Sect would be exposed, which would arouse Tong Yan's suspicion. After all, the undercover agent from the Hehuan Sect was sent to the Qingyun Sect. As long as he made a little association and inquired a little, he would be able to dig out his experience in the Qingyun Sect.
However, it turned out that he was overthinking.
Tong Yan had no idea about the fact that Nan Wang "came from the Hehuan Sect". He had only one idea, which was that he wanted to be the number one demon envoy.
Yes, the first demon.
The moment he heard this technical term, Nanwang felt that his worldview had been refreshed.
Something that didn't even appear in the original book was born under his influence!
The previous Demon Lords either had only one Demon Envoy or no Demon Envoy at all. But in Nanwang's generation, so many big guys are vying to be his Demon Envoy, and there are even first, second, and third positions...
What's even more outrageous is that Tong Yan is not the only one making a fuss about the magic user rankings.
How could Wu Ge be willing to be inferior to others, especially to Tong Yan?
Nan Wang was overwhelmed by the confrontation, scheming, and intrigue between the two men.
He hadn't figured out whether or not he should be the Demon Lord, and how to be the Demon Lord. He was exhausted just dealing with the disputes between these two people every day.
After being forced to become the Demon Lord, Nan Wang actually thought about planning a good future for the demon clan, preferably a future where they could resolve their grievances with the immortals and move forward hand in hand.
Unexpectedly, ideals are full of hope, but reality is very cruel. In reality, Nan Wang not only deals with letters sent to the Demon Lord every day, but is also busy trying to stop Tong Yan and Wu Ge from fighting. He has no energy to imagine the future.
God knows, in the original novel, Tong Yan and Wu Ge had a very good relationship. They even joined forces to destroy the Qingyun Sect. That was the Qingyun Sect!
With the help of Wu Ge and Tong Yan, the third demon envoy Zhu Yutang appears to be extremely considerate.
Zhu Yutang is a demon envoy sent by the Hehuan Sect. To be honest, the Hehuan Sect is the real place where demon envoys are produced.
Before the generation of Demon Lord Nanwang, the meaning of Demon Envoy actually meant cauldron.
It is said that everyone has his or her specialties. In terms of cultivation, the Hehuan Sect does not dare to say that it is the best, but in terms of the furnace and cauldron, if the Hehuan Sect says that it is second, then no one dares to claim to be the best.
Zhu Yutang is the male cauldron carefully cultivated by the Hehuan Sect of this generation.
He neither competed for the position with the previous two demon envoys, nor did he ever send Nanwang so many rare treasures that the warehouse could not even hold them all day long like those two did. The most he sent was flower petals picked in the early morning, brewed into a pot of elegant flower tea, and the wisps of white smoke that rose up amid the noisy quarrels.
Compared to those two funny guys who only know how to make trouble, Zhu Yutang is reliable, has a concise writing style and is good at handling letters. He has helped Nanwang share a lot of work and is truly a demon messenger who helps the Demon Lord solve his problems.
However, since he was from the Hehuan Sect after all, Zhu Yutang would occasionally pour tea for Nanwang and chat with him when Wu Ge invited Nanwang to study spells or Tong Yan invited Nanwang to go to the secret realm together:
"They would always make trouble for my brother, unlike me, who would just feel sorry for him."
“…”
Unable to bear the heavy burden, Nan Wang put down the teacup, ran back to the Falling Moon Tower, hugged Tutu and cried.
The rabbit's ears drooped and stuck to its body. It didn't say a word and didn't listen to him.
Nan Wang cried and explained: "Nuonuo, I really have nothing to do with them. You have to believe me, I won't fall in love with someone else!"
Annuo groaned, turned back into human form and said, "Really? I don't believe it."
Nan Wang cried and said, "It's true, it's true, it's truer than gold."
An Nuo put his hands on his waist and said, "Humph, I see you have so many beautiful women in your arms every day that you have forgotten your last name!"
"Let's not talk about anything else, but...beauty?"
Nan Wang recalled his three demon envoys and couldn't help but complain:
"Tong Yan is just a big, burly guy, not even close to being a beauty. Wu Ge is okay, but he's too scary the way he acts like a man and a woman the other time. As for Zhu Yutang, he's too feminine. He's okay during the day, but scary at night..."
An Nuo said angrily: "You really got chosen, didn't you?"
Nan Wang laughed and hugged An Nuo's soft waist: "Even if I have to choose a hundred times, I will still choose my beautiful Nuo Nuo."
"Well, your praises won't change the fact that you hang out with them all the time."
An Nuo turned his head away with a humming sound, looking as if he didn't want to cooperate with Nan Wang's performance.
Nan Wang said pitifully, "I don't want to stay with them either. I get upset when I see their faces...but, but there's nothing I can do."
Annuo puffed up his cheeks and said nothing.
Nan Wang sighed helplessly.
After becoming the Demon Lord, the Falling Moon Tower became his office. Every day, various messengers would fly to the Falling Moon Tower, seeking the Demon Lord's help.
The description of the Demon Lord in the original novel did not go into detail about his duties, and Tong Yan became the Demon Lord in the very late plot, so Nan Wang really never dreamed that the Demon Lord would actually be a crucial role for the demon clan!
Recently, the Demonic Tribe's secret realms have been collapsing frequently, and even several unknown small sects have been wiped out. Many large sects have also been involved. It's good enough to take care of themselves, but they really can't spare any effort to provide external support. In addition, the situation in the secret realms changes rapidly. It's possible that just when you have organized the rescue, the secret realm over there has been successfully conquered. Or, a secret realm that was originally thought to be easy to conquer suddenly has a big problem, and many monks have been wiped out in one fell swoop, while expanding wildly, and urgently need rescue.
This dire situation obviously cannot be resolved by the Demon Cult alone, so they need to release the teleportation array and seek assistance from the Immortal Sect.
Before the Demon Lord was elected, these actions such as sending messages, asking for help, setting up formations, and guiding ordinary people to take refuge were very chaotic to implement. But now it is different. All letters for help are sent to Nanwang. Whether to open the sending formation, how to open it, whether the people should take refuge, and where to take refuge are all decided by Nanwang.
All the major demon sects emphasize obedience. They will attack wherever Nanwang points. If he doesn't point, then no one will attack.
Nan Wang didn't want to point it out, and he also wanted to drink tea and fish every day, but behind every letter for help were countless lives. If he handled the letter a little later, a secret realm might collapse, and a city might be destroyed. If he advised the two magic envoys a little more, a teleportation array that he didn't know whether to open or when to open would be completely occupied by the secret realm and would never have a chance to open again.
Three years ago, Nan Wang would never have thought that he came back to the Demon Cult not to experience the pinnacle of the talisman, but to feel the burden on Du Xueling's body -
Work from morning till night without a break.
This is also the reason why An Nuoning would rather let Nan Wang be surrounded by the three demon emissaries than to stay in the Fallen Moon Tower and keep an eye on Nan Wang himself.
People's fear of 996 and 007 is regardless of time or background.
Nanwang, the Demon Lord, was rushed to the position, but after he got there, he found that looking at the entire Northern Territory, he might really be the most suitable person to be the Demon Lord.
For the current Northern Territory, the significance of the Demon Lord's existence is to stabilize the situation, solve the secret realm, and reduce casualties.
The Demon Lord's own cultivation level is actually not important. What is important is the Demon Lord's appeal and his control over the situation in the secret realm.
As for the former, although Nanwang himself didn't know why, he could indeed call on Tong Yan, Wu Ge and the two sects behind them. When he encountered a situation where he was really short of combat power, he could ask these two powerful men with extraordinary combat power to personally go to the secret realm to deal with the emergency. As for the latter...
Nanwang is even better at the latter.
Theoretically, he knows about all the secret realms where accidents may occur. If he doesn't know, it means that there will be no problems in this secret realm.
Therefore, Nanwang can mobilize the combat power of the demon clan to the maximum extent and put the most suitable people in the most suitable positions. If he encounters a problem that ordinary people cannot solve, he will send Tong Yan. He has the aura of the male protagonist and generally cannot die.
If I die accidentally... that's actually not bad.
