After struggling for half an hour without success, Hua Yaorao's patience was exhausted.
"You'll just become a piece of trash then," Hua Yaorao said angrily, wiping away her sweat.
Upon hearing this, Feng Qingcheng's subordinates all looked worried.
Even the mighty Flower King couldn't help its master regain his strength; it seems he's truly useless.
Oh, what a pity.
If the master possesses spiritual power, then he would surely be the number one demon among the demon race.
"By the way, why did you bring so many demons into the palace?" Hua Yaorao finally discovered the demons hiding behind the formation.
Feng Qingcheng said, "It's very simple. Isn't the Flower King short of people? I've brought all these guys to join you."
Hua Yaorao said disdainfully, "A bunch of trash, not even enough for Hua Shasha to kill alone. What use are these guys to me?"
Feng Qingcheng shook her head: "You're just too arrogant, which is why you're completely controlled by Hua Shengsheng. No matter how powerful you are, you're still just a demon. Hua Shengsheng isn't as strong as you, but it knows how to cultivate its power."
"I don't need you to lecture me." Hua Yaorao was furious.
Feng Qingcheng clapped her hands, and soon demons carried Hua Shasha up.
"Hua Sha Sha?" Hua Yao Rao looked at Feng Qing Cheng in disbelief. "You actually managed to take it down?"
In Hua Yaorao's opinion, Hua Shasha could take down these guys all by herself.
How come it's reversed now?
“Otherwise, how can we enter the palace?” Feng Qingcheng said, waving the military tally in her hand. “Now all the palace soldiers are in my hands. As long as the Flower King is willing to take these guys in, then we will join you in dealing with Flower Saint.”
Hua Yaorao scoffed: "Hua Shengsheng is not so easy to deal with. You guys are just going to your deaths for nothing."
"How will you know if you don't try?" Feng Qingcheng said, then looked at the flower fairies. "Use the power of the Ten-Star Formation to fight against the Flower King and let the Flower King know how powerful you are."
Hua Yaorao sneered: "Don't waste your energy. I don't want to kill you. I want to kill Hua Shengsheng now. I don't believe I can't kill her forces."
Proud and alluring like a flower, it disdains seeking help from any power. Since it has no way to release its children, it will go and do something important first.
Hua Yaorao turned and left.
"Ha, Hua Yaorao, don't you want to know where Chen Xuan is?"
Hua Yaorao stopped in her tracks.
Chen Xuan.
That was its emotional tribulation.
Feng Qingcheng continued, "He was trapped in the void while trying to find you in the demon realm. If I hadn't risked my life to save him, he would probably be dead by now. So, what he owes me must be repaid by you."
Hua Yaorao narrowed her eyes: "Feng Qingcheng, are you trying to take advantage of my kindness?"
"That's right, you can understand it that way. Chen Xuan made me a cripple, so what's wrong with me making some demands of you?"
"Then you should go find him."
"If he could repay it, would I come to you? It's fine if you refuse to repay it for him, but I'll take all his cultivation. I can restore my cultivation through other means, can't I?"
Hua Yaorao clenched her fists.
"You dare!"
Feng Qingcheng sneered: "Let's see if I dare. When the time comes, I wonder if you'll want a good-for-nothing as your husband?"
Hua Yaorao wanted to grind her teeth in frustration. Why were both demons and humans threatening her? Did she look so easy to bully?
It is Hua Yaorao, the king of the demon race, the most powerful being among the demons!
"You're asking for it."
"You're the one who made Chen Xuan court death. All you're doing is taking in my men, what loss could you possibly suffer? I know, you're selfish! Poor Chen Xuan almost died because of you, yet you refuse to make any concessions or changes for him. Aren't you afraid Chen Xuan will get tired and abandon you?"
Hua Yaorao almost choked to death.
"It's just collecting a few pieces of trash, right? I'll take them."
It wasn't that I was afraid Chen Xuan would change his mind, but rather that I was afraid he would get tired and weary.
The demons were overjoyed to receive the flower enchantress's promise.
Feng Qingcheng said, "Words are not enough, let's draw up a contract."
Hua Yaorao was furious: "Are you questioning me?"
"Flower King, you are the most skilled in cultivation, but you really don't know how to manage, so you are completely controlled by Flower Saint. Don't worry, Chen Xuan will help you in the future, and the two of you can be loving and affectionate for a lifetime in the demon race."
Hua Yaorao's aura subsided upon hearing the name of her beloved.
Can I really stay with him forever?
Would the demon race agree?
Would the human race agree?
"I don't need you to teach me." Hua Yaorao glared at Feng Qingcheng.
Feng Qingcheng felt that this guy was too domineering and too willful.
Fortunately, Hua Yaorao eventually gave in.
At Feng Qingcheng's request, the Flower King had no choice but to assign official positions to these demons.
The demons were overjoyed.
They never expected that Feng Qingcheng would actually do it; they could become officials now! How impressive!
Finally, the palace troops were reorganized. The Flower King personally took action, eliminating the leaders in various places and installing Feng Qingcheng's people in their place.
All of this was done so discreetly that it did not alert Hua Shengsheng.
However, what they didn't know was that Hua Shengsheng had already sensed something was wrong when she heard that Hua Shasha had brought a large group of demons into the palace but hadn't reported it to her. So she sent a signal to the soldiers outside the palace.
Just as the Flower King led the demons to surround the Sage Palace, Flower Saint Saint not only did not panic, but instead cheerfully invited them to look at the soldiers outside the palace.
The palace was completely surrounded by soldiers.
The demons were terrified!
"King of Flowers, you are really disobedient. As long as I give the order, the million-strong army outside will rush into the palace and slaughter you without leaving a single survivor."
"Hua Sheng Sheng, instead of sending your million-strong army to guard the border, you actually left them outside the palace?" Hua Yao Rao said angrily.
"There's no trouble on the frontier, what are you going there for? Flower King, don't you care about your own life or everyone else's?"
Hua Yaorao was furious.
"Hua Shengsheng, I'm going to kill you."
"Alright, then let's have a showdown, Flower King. Today, I will attack from outside the palace and drive you out of the palace." After saying this, Flower Saint Saint's figure changed and she disappeared immediately.
Hua Yaorao then unleashed a spell, but it missed Hua Shengsheng.
Hua Shengsheng has fled.
They fled outside the palace.
It flew in mid-air, clad in armor, and declared with an air of righteous indignation: "Hua Yaorao, during your reign, you have harmed countless demons. For the sake of the future of the demon race, I advise you to leave the palace and surrender, and voluntarily relinquish your throne. Otherwise, I will lead my generals into the palace and slaughter you without leaving a trace."
Hua Yaorao stood on the city wall, looking at the arrogant Hua Shengsheng, her face contorted with anger.
How can it fight against a million-strong army?
Even if it doesn't consider its own life, it should consider the lives of tens of thousands of creatures in the palace.
"Hua Sheng Sheng, after I became king, you were the one who did all those shameful things. How dare you frame me?" Hua Yao Rao was furious.
"Didn't you issue the decrees? Did I hold a knife to your throat and force you to comply with those rules and regulations that harm demons?"
Hua Yaorao was so angry that her stomach ached when she thought about how she had trusted it wholeheartedly, only to be framed by it.
No amount of explanation will help now.
The demon race had long ago nailed it to the pillar of shame.
It narrowed its pupils dangerously, wondering if, with its cultivation, it could get through a million-strong army and kill Hua Shengsheng!
Even if it dies in the end, it will be worth it.
Just as she was about to take action, she received a voice transmission talisman from Chen Xuan: "Yao Rao, it's me. Hua Shengsheng deliberately provoked you, so don't surrender. Talk to Feng Qingcheng, she will help you. In addition, we will also set up a plan from outside the palace to help you kill the enemy."
Chen Xuan's voice seemed to possess a magical power, gradually softening its hardened heart.
A few months apart felt like an eternity.
Flower Fairy's eyes were filled with tears; she thought she would never see Chen Xuan again in her life.
It made a choice between Chen Xuan and his family. Unexpectedly, he actually came from the human race to the demon race for it!
Chen Xuan, if you treat me like this, and I ever betray you again, then there's no point in me living!
Hua Yaorao quickly went to find Feng Qingcheng.
It can distrust any demon, any person, except Chen Xuan.
That's its most beloved pet.
Feng Qingcheng and the demons hurried towards the palace gate.
The million-strong army outside is putting immense pressure on us.
She didn't have many poisons, so it was impossible for her to kill them with poison.
She was really worried; she hadn't expected Hua Shengsheng to pull this stunt.
The palace soldiers, plus the ones she brought into the palace, number no more than ten thousand.
How can you fight against 10,000 against 1 million?
Does she have to pass on the Ten Star Formation to so many demons?
However, she lacked spiritual power and couldn't input array information into them, which was impossible.
This is really worrying me.
Before Feng Qingcheng even reached the palace gate, she was stopped in mid-air by Hua Yaorao.
"Feng Qingcheng, Chen Xuan wants me to listen to you. Do you have a way to control the million-strong army outside?"
"Chen Xuan contacted you?" Feng Qingcheng was overjoyed.
Hua Yaorao said, "Of course."
“Great! Lend me a communication talisman so I can send a message to my husband.”
Hua Yaorao: "We've used up the last communication talisman."
Feng Qingcheng was on the verge of tears: "You're not playing a trick on me, are you?"
Hua Yaorao: "Hua Shengsheng is in charge of the palace's wealth, and I don't want to waste my energy breaking its barrier."
"You, the king of flowers, are even so stingy with your communication tokens?"
"I won't take anything I don't need."
Damn it.
Feng Qingcheng wanted to curse.
They're all a bunch of poor bastards.
"By the way, what method should we use to deal with an army of a million?" Hua Yaorao asked again.
Even if I had a solution, I wouldn't want to tell you.
My husband is clearly outside, but he can't see me. I can't even send him a voice message.
Hmph, Feng Qingcheng was in a very bad mood. She said dejectedly, "There is a way, but I am a bit greedy. If I can come up with a treasure that tempts me, I might be able to come up with a solution right away."
I can't think of a solution right now, but let's get our hands on the fragments first.
The information obtained from the three handsome men of Thumb confirms that the fragment is in the hands of Hua Yaorao.
Hua Yaorao frowned: "Are you that greedy?"
Feng Qingcheng laughed: "Wrong, I love money. As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money but acquires it in a proper way. I've come up with a way to deal with a million-strong army for you. This method is priceless, and you must exchange it for a treasure. It's a bargain for you, understand?"
To put it bluntly, isn't it just greed?
If Chen Xuan hadn't made it listen to her, it wouldn't have bothered with her at all.
Hua Yaorao was forced to nod.
"Alright, hurry up and think of something. The more valuable the treasure, the more inspiration it will give me."
Something valuable?
In Hua Yaorao's eyes, nothing is worth anything except treasure.
But even a treasure is nothing more than a fragment; to it, that thing is nothing more than a piece of trash.
“Once you’ve dealt with Hua Shengsheng, you can take all the treasures from the palace,” Hua Yaorao said.
Feng Qingcheng said, "Do you think I'm that vulgar?"
"Are you greedy for money?"
Feng Qingcheng glared at it.
Hua Yaorao said, "Then I will give you the treasure map of the demon race?"
Do demons also have treasure maps?
Feng Qingcheng's eyes gleamed with excitement as she asked, "What treasure is it? Tell me about it!"
"Weapons, crystals, demon tokens."
That's it?
"Isn't this enough? So many demons want it."
"Not interested. I'm somewhat interested in our human race's treasure maps, but I don't use demon coins. I only want silver."
Hua Yaorao said, "Legend has it that the human race has a treasure map, but I only found a fragment."
Feng Qingcheng's eyes lit up immediately: "Really?"
"I don't know if it's true or not. I saw a group of big shots fighting over it in the human realm. It's said to be a priceless treasure, so I thought it would be interesting. In the end, I managed to snatch it." After Hua Yaorao finished speaking, she took out the fragment.
Feng Qingcheng excitedly accepted it.
Good heavens, it really is the fifth fragment!
It was so hard to get this fragment; she became useless because of it.
This is what they mean by "people die for wealth, birds die for food"!
Now that she has the fragment, can she sneak away?
A million-strong army, without poison, is unbeatable.
Of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, running away is the best!
Seeing her so excited, Hua Yaorao couldn't help but ask, "Look how excited you are, have you had any inspiration yet?"
I have no inspiration, but I really do want to run away.
Feng Qingcheng smiled: "This thing, you're giving it to me?"
Hua Yaorao said, "Of course, it's useless to me. If it weren't so exquisite, I would have thrown it away long ago."
Thank goodness it wasn't lost, otherwise where would she have found it?
Feng Qingcheng asked, "Is there a secret passage leading to the outside from the royal palace?"
Hua Yaorao: "I don't know. I'm not familiar with this palace."
Feng Qingcheng: You deserve to die.
"Are we going to dig a secret passage?"
Do you think it's too late to dig now?
"Then what should we do?"
"You try to buy time, and I'll teach everyone how to make some poison and gunpowder."
"Making drugs? You know how to do that?" Hua Yaorao was very skeptical.
"Nonsense, do you know what I'm called among humans?"
Hua Yaorao shook her head; in her opinion, humans were inferior.
If Chen Xuan hadn't treated it well, it wouldn't have been willing to submit to him.
"The God of Poison, have you heard of him?"
Hua Yaorao shook her head.
"Fine, you go stall for time. Oh, and you should tell Hua Shengsheng this..."
Feng Qingcheng then taught it a bunch of communication skills.
Although Hua Yaorao was disdainful, she had no choice but to force herself to remember Chen Xuan's words.
"Remember this: never anger Hua Shengsheng, or we will surely die if she starts a war."
Although Hua Yaorao was impatient, she knew that all the ten thousand living beings in the palace rested on her shoulders.
It only knows how to conquer the demon race, but doesn't know how to govern them. The current situation is indeed caused by its arrogance and disdain for cultivating its own power.
If the creatures of the royal palace were to perish because of it, then it would be a wicked demon.
