After distributing the spoils of war, it was a joyous occasion. The demonic beasts were all elated and satisfied, expressing that this trip was not in vain.
After Song Zhong encouraged them, the demonic beasts followed Song Zhong's orders and carried out their tasks. Some of them patrolled, some of them hunted, while others did not forget to monitor the refinement of treasures by the human cultivators.
At this time, Song Zhong finally had the time to care about SiYu and SiYun whom he had sent away. In the end, when he asked the captives, there was no news at all. Song Zhong was not willing to give up. Thus, he chose a few human cultivators as scouts and sent them to the inner regions of the Vast Mountains to gather information. Especially around SiYu and SiYun's sects, they were the focus of his attention.
After settling all these, Song Zhong finally had the time to meet Huo * *. This fellow was obviously a spineless person. When the Rogue Cultivator Dong Hai was still resisting, he had already surrendered. He was truly a super expert who knew how to take advantage of the situation.
After sending the old housekeeper AoTian to monitor the human cultivators and sending Lei Shan 'er out to play, Song Zhong brought Huo * * into the inner chamber alone.
Because the demonic beasts wanted the human cultivators to work, they did not mistreat them. As such, Huo * *'s complexion was not bad. Other than looking a little worried, there were no external injuries on his body. It could be seen that he did not put up much resistance.
After seeing Song Zhong, Huo * *'s face turned red and he felt extremely awkward. He did not know what to say!
When Song Zhong saw Huo * *, he was filled with anger. Tens of days ago, it was this fellow who had tricked him into entering the transportation formation and almost caused his death. Now that he had met his enemy, his eyes turned red. How could Song Zhong give him a good face?
"Hahaha, isn't this the famous senior Huo * *?" Song Zhong could not help but mock him, "Why do you look so pale?"
When Huo * * heard that, he did not know whether to laugh or cry, "Alright, alright, don't make fun of me! I admit that I tricked you once, but wasn't that because I had no choice? "
"You tricked me once, but your Huo Clan has tricked me countless times! Your sister, Huo Qian Wu, instigated the Thousands Desire Sect to kill my parents, and your father helped her cover it up. In the end, he even sacrificed my reputation to frame my entire family as Demonic Beasts! "Song Zhong said in exasperation," How can the bastards of your Huo Family be so immoral? "
Huo * *'s face turned red from the scolding and he wished that he could find a hole to bury himself in. He could only explain with a red face, "Qianwu was insensible, but my father had no choice. After all, he had to take everyone's face into consideration!"
As SongZhong heard that, he raged, "Don't tell me that for the sake of your face, we have to sacrifice our family's life and honour?"
"This ~" When Huo * * heard this, he could not help but smile bitterly, "Junior brother Song, I know that our Huo family has wronged you and that is why you are angry. However, it is wrong for you to vent your anger on me. I am innocent! He definitely wasn't involved in framing your parents. "
"Hmm?" Song Zhong said with ill intentions, "You are innocent?"
"Hmm ~" Huo * * thought for a while and smiled bitterly, "Alright, other than the time when I tricked you into entering the teleportation formation, I am innocent!"
"Hmph!" Song Zhong snorted coldly, "You and your father are in cahoots. You are the one who slandered me in the Eastern Ocean Alliance! Do you think that I don't know? "
"This ~" When Huo * * heard this, he could not help but smile bitterly, "That was an order from the higher-ups. Furthermore, it might not be true that your parents are Demonic Beasts spies. However, you have led an army of Demonic Beasts to destroy the headquarters of the Eastern Ocean Alliance. It seems that you are worthy of being labeled a spy! "
"Bullshit, I only became the Crown Prince because I was forced into a corner by Old Devil Feng and all of you bastards. Do you really think that I like being a bastard?" SongZhong could not help but spit out in exasperation.
"Bastard, aren't you the Crown Prince? How did you become a bastard? "Huo * * asked in confusion.
Of course, Song Zhong would not tell him the details. He glared at Huo * * and said, "Is it any of your business?"
"Yes, yes, it's none of my business. I won't ask anymore, alright?" Huo * * then smiled apologetically, "I say, junior brother, may I know why you have called me here?"
"Don't call me junior brother. I have long been removed from the list! It sounds disgusting! "Song Zhong said coldly.
"Yes, yes, I won't call you that. However, you should at least tell me why you have called me here, right?" Huo * * asked.
"What else can I do? Of course it's to kill you and avenge my parents! "Song Zhong said viciously.
"Aiyo, don't!" Huo * * was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. Huo * * hurriedly said, "The culprit who killed your parents was the Thousands Desire Sect. The mastermind behind it was Huo Qianwu who died in your hands. I still have some ties with your parents. How can their deaths have anything to do with me? "
"Bullshit, how can it be nothing? Isn't Huo Qianwu your sister?" Song Zhong sneered, "It's the fault of the brother for not teaching his sister. You deserve to die!"
In this world, there was only the saying, 'It's the fault of the father for not teaching his son well'. How can there be such a saying, 'It's the fault of the brother for not teaching his sister well'? Huo * * almost fainted when he heard this twisted logic. He hurriedly tried to explain himself, "Huo QianWu is not my sister. You should know that her mother is my aunt, Huo QingYun. We are only cousins."
"That's enough!" Song Zhong said angrily, "None of you with the surname Huo are good. I will exterminate your entire family!"
Huo * * was elated when he heard this. He then laughed, "Little brother, perhaps you don't know the situation of my Huo Family? Let me tell you, I have a lot of family members. You won't be able to exterminate them! "
"Bullshit, I have millions of soldiers. How many people can I not exterminate?" Song Zhong sneered.
"Hehe!" Huo * * smiled slightly. "My Huo Family is one of the four great families of the Xuantian Dao Sect. We have hundreds of thousands of disciples in our family tree. Among them, there are more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators. We even have a Great Ascension Realm ancestor. Are you sure you want to exterminate my entire family?"
"This …" Song Zhong was speechless. In the face of such terrifying power, he would be an idiot if he still said that he wanted to exterminate his entire family. That was simply impossible!
Huo * * saw that Song Zhong was a bit depressed and couldn't help consoling him, "Little fellow, there is a saying that it is better to squash enmity than keep it alive. After all, you are from the Xuantian Dao Sect. This huge monster has already branded you. No matter where you go, you won't be able to escape!"
"You killed my entire family. I won't let you off!" Song Zhong stubbornly retorted.
"In such a large family, there are bound to be a few scum. I sympathize with your situation. Even my father feels sorry for you. It's just that he placed too much importance on his relationship with his younger brother. That's why he took a wrong step and lost everything. "Now that things have gotten so big, I think even he is unable to control it. The higher-ups will definitely investigate who is responsible! "And once the higher-ups are alerted, you will be even more important than my father!" Huo * * then earnestly said, "If you trust me, then let me return. I'm willing to persuade my family to give up on their enmity and bury the hatchet. Then I'll bring you back to the Xuantian Dao Sect. "In any case, you've already gotten your revenge, so why implicate yourself too much? In the future, we can all drink and chat happily. Then we can be fellow disciples. Wouldn't that be perfect? "
Huo * *'s words touched Song Zhong's heart. In truth, he also wasn't willing to leave the Xuantian Dao Sect. After all, this place held too many beautiful memories for him. Whether it was the former monastery head Hong couple, the cute Great Shadow, or the beautiful Shuijin, they were all deeply attracted to Song Zhong. Furthermore, it was just as Huo * * had said. The culprit and the mastermind had already been killed. Even the accomplice Huo Qingyun had gone crazy. Huolong Daoist had also been taught a lesson. If he let this matter go, it wouldn't be a loss.
Thinking of that, Song Zhong almost nodded. But just as he was about to agree, he suddenly thought of something. Huo * * seemed to have just tricked him once. Today, he had originally wanted to kill him to vent his anger. Why was it that after saying just a few words, he suddenly wanted to let him go?
Thinking about this, SongZhong realised that he was most likely tricked by this fellow again. He was angered to the point he slammed the table and scolded, "What a glib tongued fellow, you want to trick me again? What you're saying now makes sense, but when I let you go, I'm afraid you won't be you anymore! "
When Huo * * heard that, he was almost angered to death. This foolish fellow was clearly tempted, but why did he suddenly understand at the crucial moment? No, I have to continue tricking him, or else my old life will be over!
Thinking of that, Huo * * hurriedly said, "That's not right. Everything I said came from the bottom of my heart! If I dare to lie to you, I will be struck by lightning! "
"Don't give me that!" Song Zhong said with disdain. "You old fox, you tricked me into the Thousand Dragons Great Array the last time. Luckily, this brother had the Golden Dragon boat, otherwise I wouldn't even know how I died!"
"This ~" As Huo * * heard SongZhong mention the previous incident, he also felt extremely upset in his heart as he grumbled bitterly, 'Aiyoyo, my father, you have really harmed your son. If not for the fact that you had me frame this fellow, would I have to lie to him? If I hadn't deceived him the last time, wouldn't I be able to deceive him this time? If I had known earlier, I would have saved the opportunity to deceive him for this time!
"Hmph!" When Song Zhong saw Huo * *'s regretful and vexed expression, he immediately knew that Huo * * was trying to deceive him again. Luckily, he saw through it. He then laughed coldly. "You may not be very capable, but your ability to deceive others is not small. It's a pity that I won't fall for your tricks anymore. You can go and die! "
As he said that, Song Zhong was about to kill him.
Huo * *'s cultivation had already been sealed and he was now an ordinary person. Song Zhong only needed to lift his finger to kill him. How would he dare to let Song Zhong make a move? Thus, he hurriedly shouted, "Wait, wait, please have mercy. Little brother, if I'm alive, I'll be of great use to you. If I'm dead, I'm just a piece of smelly meat with no value at all! "
"En?" When Song Zhong heard that, he immediately stopped and asked, "What use can a bastard like you be?"
"Of great use!" Huo * * hurriedly said, "Your Jade Pearl Pavilion, Xuantian Monastery and Thousands Desire Sect have already been tormented to such a state. How would they let this matter rest? Even if it's just for their face, they would still send experts to deal with you. If they attack and you are unable to defend against them, I'm still a member of the Huo Family. Wouldn't I have some weight? "
"You're saying that I'll use you as a hostage so that they won't attack me?" Song Zhong frowned.
"Smart, that's what I'm saying!" Huo * * hurriedly said.
"En, that makes sense. However, I have too many captives and there are quite a few who are of similar status as you. Since I don't need one more, I'll just kill you to vent my anger!" As Song Zhong spoke, he was about to make a move again.
When Huo * * saw that, he was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. He hurriedly shouted, "Wait, wait, I'm at least a Jin Dan Elixir and can help you refine treasures, right? If I die, you'll lose a good laborer! "
It turned out that the astute Huo * * had already seen through Song Zhong's intention of capturing human cultivators. As such, he used this to persuade Song Zhong.
Indeed, when Song Zhong heard this, he immediately hesitated. Killing Huo * * would only be to vent his anger and there would not be any benefits. However, if he were to keep him alive and work day and night, with the abundant resources of the Eastern Sea, how much profit would he be able to make? Anyway, this fellow had only scammed him once and there was no deep hatred between them. Punishing him to work for him for the rest of his life was not a bad thing.
When he thought of this, Song Zhong softened his tone and said, "If that's the case, you do seem to be of some use!"
"That's right, that's right!" Huo * * heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. Although the work was tiring, at least he was able to keep his life temporarily. Where there's life, there's hope! Who knows, he might even be saved by his elders and become a hero again!
However, Song Zhong's last sentence destroyed Huo * *'s good mood. Song Zhong said indifferently, "Since that's the case, if you do three times the work of other Jin Dan Elixir, I can consider letting you off!"
"What? Three times the work of other people? "When Huo * * heard this, he immediately became anxious." How can you be so ruthless to me? "
"Nonsense, this is called punishment, do you understand? Who asked you to have such a good sister, Huo Qianwu? "Song Zhong then laughed coldly." If you want to blame someone, blame her! "
This time, Huo * * was completely speechless. Who asked him to be implicated? Helplessly, Huo * * could only compromise. "Alright, alright, I admit defeat!"
Seeing that Huo * * had given in, Song Zhong nodded his head in satisfaction. "That's more like it! However, let me say this first. If you dare to do half-heartedly and spoil my work, I will not be courteous with you. I will cut you up piece by piece! "
As he spoke, Song Zhong glared fiercely at Huo * *. Huo * * was frightened by Song Zhong's fierce glare and hurriedly nodded his head. "Yes, yes. Don't worry, I won't dare to!"
"Hmph, I know you won't dare to either!" After Song Zhong finished speaking, he sent Huo * * away in disgust.
After sending Huo * * away, Song Zhong found a quiet room and started to comprehend the jade talisman that Donghai Sanren had given him. The jade talisman recorded everything about the Mountain Splitting Axe and even the array that controlled it. At that time, Song Zhong did not have much time to comprehend it. Now that he had time, he naturally could not wait to study it. After all, no one would dislike such a terrifying item like the Mountain Splitting Axe.
Through the records in the jade talisman, Song Zhong finally understood the origin of the Mountain Splitting Axe. It turned out that the Mountain Splitting Axe had an extraordinary origin. It was actually a Celestial Artifact that was of a higher grade than a Spiritual Treasure. However, it was not complete and was in a severely damaged state. Especially when the weapon's soul was shattered, it could not be controlled freely and could not unleash its full power. Therefore, its power was only 20% to 30% of its peak power.
However, this mere 20% to 30% of its power was enough to destroy the Raging Sea Wave and cause Song Zhong to vomit blood. It could be seen how powerful this Celestial Artifact was. By right, such a powerful item should have attracted the attention of the various sects. However, when it was discovered, it was during the honeymoon period of the various sects. At that time, they had just experienced a Beast Tide and formed a friendship in the process of joining forces to defeat the enemy. In addition, the various sects had suffered heavy losses in the Beast Tide and could not afford to suffer any more losses. Therefore, after some discussion, they placed this item in the newly established Donghai Alliance Headquarters and made it the treasure of the alliance. Only the Alliance Master had the right to use it.
Actually, there was another important reason why the various sects didn't seize this thing, and it was because as an Immortal Artifact, the Mountain-Splitting Axe contained extremely pure Immortal Qi, and it was utterly not something that an ordinary human cultivator could control. Only those super experts who had produced Celestial Qi in their bodies could use it.
As for Celestial Qi, at least a Void Refinement Stage expert would have a trace of it. Even a Mahayana Stage expert would only have a part of it. Therefore, there were only two ways to use the Mountain-Splitting Godly Axe. One was to use a huge formation to generate enough Immortal Qi to control the Mountain-Splitting Godly Axe. The other way was to be like Donghai's Loose Cultivator and replace the Immortal Qi with Blood Essence that contained a huge amount of Spiritual Qi.
Both of these methods had their pros and cons. The first method was restricted by the Mountain Breaking Godly Axe, which could not take the initiative to attack. It could only attack within a radius of a dozen miles. Therefore, it could not do anything to the Fire Dragon Boat, which was a hundred miles away. It could only let Donghai Cultivator fight with his life. However, the latter method was too wasteful. With Donghai Cultivator's Peak Yuanying Stage cultivation base, he had to spit out nine mouthfuls of blood essence to barely control the sword. Then, wouldn't other people spit out their blood essence?
Moreover, a cultivator's blood essence was extremely important. Donghai Cultivator spat out nine mouthfuls of blood essence. Without dozens of years of recuperation, he would not be able to recover his Primordial Qi. Even the time for him to break through to the Spirit Severing Stage had to be greatly delayed.
After weighing the pros and cons for a while, Song Zhong finally chose the first method to control the Mountain Splitting Axe. He did not want to spit out blood for no reason. Therefore, the first method was still the best!
In any case, Song Zhong had the Gold Dragon Boat. After reaching the second form, the Gold Dragon Boat was five hundred feet long. There was a lot of space on the deck. It was completely possible to set up a formation to control the Mountain Splitting Axe. When the time came, he could put the Mountain Splitting Axe inside. His Gold Dragon Boat would have another trump card.
Of course, this was all just Song Zhong's wishful thinking. To be safe, he looked for the nine beauties to discuss. After all, the nine beauties were all experts. After a round of discussion, they finally gave an affirmative answer. They said that Song Zhong's plan was completely feasible.
Song Zhong was naturally overjoyed. He immediately gave them full authority to handle this matter. Then, Song Zhong easily became a hands-off shopkeeper.
After dealing with the matter of the Mountain-Breaking Godly Axe, Song Zhong realized that he had been in seclusion for a few days. He didn't know how the other four battles were going. He didn't dare to delay any longer and hurriedly came out of seclusion.
In the end, the moment he came out, he saw his old butler, Ao Tian, waiting for him. When the old housekeeper, AoTian, saw Song Zhong come out, he was overjoyed. He hurriedly ran over and said, "Your Highness, you finally came out. If you didn't come out, I would have been worried to death!"
When Song Zhong heard that he was so anxious, his face suddenly changed. He hurriedly asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did they lose in the other four battles? "
"Of course not!" The old housekeeper, AoTian, hurriedly said, "If we still lose in this kind of sneak attack, we would really be idiots! Your Highness, don't worry, good news has come from other places as well! We've won all of them, and we're now at the finishing stage! "
When Song Zhong heard this, he let out a sigh of relief. He immediately scolded with a smile, "Since you've won, then why are you so anxious?"
"Because Her Majesty is here!" The old butler, AoTian hurriedly explained.
"Her Majesty?" Song Zhong's brain did not turn for a moment. He said blankly, "What Her Majesty?"
"Aiya, it's our East Sea Empire's Empress!" AoTian said anxiously, "She just woke up and heard that there was a battle here. She hurriedly rushed over only to find that it was already over! Her Majesty has a stomach full of questions to ask you. She has already urged you a few times, how can I not be anxious? "
When Song Zhong heard this, his brows immediately creased. He still remembers the last time they met, he was beaten black and blue by this she-T. Rex. He still has lingering fear in his heart and could not help but smile bitterly, "What is she doing here? Could it be that she just woke up and her hands are itching to beat me up? "
"No, no!" AoTian hurriedly said, "Her Majesty must be looking for you for something! You'd better go see her! "
"Even if I don't want to, I'm afraid I can't, right?" Song Zhong smiled bitterly. "Forget it, forget it. If it's a blessing, it's not a curse. If it's a curse, it can't be avoided! Let's go! "
After Song Zhong finished speaking, he followed the old butler AoTian to see Her Majesty the Empress.
Not long after, Song Zhong was led by the old housekeeper, AoTian, to see the Empress who controlled the fate of tens of millions of demonic beasts in the Eastern Sea Empire.
The empress of other people, when mentioned, was definitely beautiful and generous, graceful and luxurious, graceful and elegant, with a charming appearance of a mother model of the world.
However, when it came to the Eastern Sea Empire, the situation was reversed. The so-called Empress was lying on a rattan chair with her bare feet propped up on the table. She looked extremely unsightly. She looked like a real man.
In addition, she was wearing tattered leather clothes. No matter how one looked at her, she looked like a poor family. If not for the fact that Song Zhong had seen her before, he would never have guessed that this was the Empress!
Song Zhong and the old butler, AoTian, had just entered. Before they could even greet her, they heard two whooshing sounds and two jugs of wine flew over. They were so frightened that they hurriedly reached out to catch them. Only then did they not get hit on the head.
Following that, Her Majesty the Empress' lazy voice came over. "Good wine, good wine. Humans are not good at fighting but they are good at brewing wine. It's been a long time since I've had such good wine. Today, I'll treat you to a good drink!"
When Song Zhong heard that, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. He thought to himself, 'This is obviously my spoils of war. How did she become the one treating? Even if I borrowed flowers to present Buddha, this is not how it should be, right? '
Of course, SongZhong only said this in his heart. On the surface, he still put on a smile and said, "Thank you very much!" As he said that, he unceremoniously opened the lid and drank the wine in big mouthfuls. When the old butler, AoTian, saw this, he also hurriedly drank a few mouthfuls.
Her Majesty the Empress waited for them to finish drinking before lightly waving her hand and said, "AoTian, you go out and drink. I have something to say to this brat!"
The old butler, AoTian, did not dare to disobey Her Majesty the Empress. He hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay, okay! You guys go ahead. I'll go guard the door! "After saying that, he quickly slipped out to give them a place to talk.
"Just find a place to sit!" Her Majesty the Empress said lazily again. After saying that, she grabbed a jug of wine, raised her head and directly drank it in one gulp. She did not even take a breath in the middle.
Song Zhong knew that this Empress' original form was a dragon. Drinking this bit of wine was nothing. Therefore, he did not mind. Looking around, he realized that this hall was actually not small. It was at least a few hundred feet in radius. It was a pity that there were wine bottles and jugs everywhere. There was almost no place to check his feet. Song Zhong frowned and simply kicked away the wine bottle beside him. After that, he directly sat on the ground.
After that, Song Zhong drank as he asked casually, "Is there something you need from me?"
Her Majesty the Empress seemed to admire Song Zhong's casual behavior. She nodded her head in satisfaction and then said with a smile, "Actually, it's nothing big. I just wanted to ask you if you are a human or a demon beast!"
Song Zhong was startled in his heart but he did not show it on the surface. He only touched his nose and then said with a bitter smile, "What do you think?"
"If I knew, would I still be asking you?" Her Majesty the Empress said with dissatisfaction.
"Hehe!" When Song Zhong heard that, he could not help but laugh and said, "You, a nearly level 7 descendant of the Azure Dragon, actually can't tell if I am a human or a demon beast? If this were to spread out, it would be a joke! "
"Sigh!" After hearing that, the Empress could not help but sigh. Then, she said gloomily, "I also know that this is nonsense but I really have no choice! The aura on your body is clearly a very pure Black Tortoise bloodline. Coupled with the River Diagram behind you, I can't not believe it even if I want to. However, recently, many people have said that you are a human due to your combat strength and human combat strength. After I came here, I even asked some human captives. They also testified that you were originally a disciple of the Xuantian Monastery. Your name is Song Zhong! I just want to know if this is true? "
Song Zhong had long known that this matter could not be concealed, so he was not surprised. He just nodded and said, "That's right. I was originally a human cultivator, Song Zhong!"
After saying that, SongZhong began to be on his guard. He thought that he would definitely be held responsible for pretending to be a descendant of the Emperor as a human. He was afraid that the Empress would immediately fly into a rage. Although he was not afraid of her, Song Zhong felt extremely uncomfortable when he thought about how he would soon fall out with these comrades of his.
However, right at this moment, something out of SongZhong's expectations happened. The Empress did not show any signs of flying into a rage. Instead, she asked with great interest, "That's strange. Since you are a human, why do you have the aura of a demon? Especially the Divine River Diagram Pattern, why is it on your back? "
"I used a one-time use magical artifact, called the Blood River Pattern to create it!" SongZhong did not hide anything and said honestly.
"Blood River Diagram Pattern?" After hearing that, the Empress could not help but frown and say, "That's not right. The Blood River Diagram Pattern will only allow you to have the Divine River Diagram Pattern on the outside. It will not allow you to have such a natural demon aura. If that thing was, I would be able to tell the difference at a glance. However, you clearly have no flaws at all! What is going on? "
"Hehe, I was lucky. I encountered the Primal Chaos True Fire by chance. After being refined by it, I became one with it!" Song Zhong laughed foolishly.
"Heavens, you are really lucky!" The Empress then said strangely, "However, treasures like the Blood River Diagram Pattern are rarely seen in ten thousand years. I can't even get it in my dreams. How did you get it?"
"I exchanged Dao Comprehension Tea with the elders of the sect!" Song Zhong said frankly.
"Dao Comprehension Tea? How did you get Dao Comprehension Tea?" The Empress asked hurriedly. Looking at the expression on her face, it seemed that she was also very eager to get this thing.
Song Zhong was stunned at first, but soon understood. This Empress was at the port of breaking through to the seventh level of a demon beast. If she could drink some Dao Comprehension Tea at this time and comprehend more of the principles of heaven and earth, it would be very helpful for her to break through. It could at least increase the success rate by twenty to thirty percent. That was why she was so excited.
After realising this point, SongZhong's heart jolted as he probed, "Back then, I killed an injured YuanYing cultivator and obtained some Dao Comprehending Tea from him!"
"Is there more? Is there more? I really need it! "The Empress said hurriedly. As she spoke, she could not wait to sit up.
"A little more!" Song Zhong said and raised his hand. He threw a small bottle to the Empress and said, "This is the last two taels of Dao Comprehension Tea. It should be enough for you, right?"
"It's enough, it's enough!" The Empress received it excitedly. She opened it and saw that it was indeed Dao Comprehension Tea. She said excitedly, "Kid, you've helped me a lot. How should I thank you?"
"There's no need!" Song Zhong waved his hand and said, "The Golden Dragon Boat you gave me is much more valuable than this. Speaking of which, I still owe you!"
"Hahaha, good kid, you're so straightforward!" The Empress put away the Dao Comprehension Tea and said, "Very good, you're indeed the Crown Prince I chose. Do well in the future. The future of the East Sea depends on you! Very good, cheers! "
As she said that, the Empress grabbed a wine jar and downed a cup.
Song Zhong was stunned when he heard that. He then smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, are you mistaken? I'm a human. You asked a human to be the leader of the East Sea demons? "
"Yes, what's wrong with that? Anyway, after being burned by the Chaotic Primordial Flame, you have the bloodline of the Black Tortoise. You can be considered half a demon. They will definitely acknowledge you! "The Empress said nonchalantly.
"Damn, no way, right? That works? "Song Zhong felt like he was in a dream. He had never thought that he would be able to pass the test so easily.
When the Empress saw that, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Look at your useless face. How big of a deal is it? Let me tell you, we don't have so many rules in the East Sea. We emphasize tolerance. In our eyes, humans are actually one of the many demons. In other realms, there are many demons who are transvestite! "
"Transvestite?" When Song Zhong heard that, he smiled bitterly and said, "Even if I'm a transvestite, I don't have the bloodline of the Emperor. That means I can't be the Crown Prince!"
"No, no, you have the bloodline of the Black Tortoise. That's for sure. So, you can still be the Crown Prince!" The Empress said directly.
"That was added later!" Song Zhong said hurriedly.
"I know, we don't care about that!" The Empress said indifferently, "When the East Sea Demons kill each other, it's not any less than you humans. Many lower-level demons can't advance in rank, so they use all kinds of methods to obtain the bloodline of higher-level demons. As long as they succeed, we will also recognize them as higher-level demons."
"You guys really don't care about bloodlines!" Song Zhong couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"What's the use of bloodlines?" The Empress said disdainfully, "What we value is strength. As long as you have enough strength, everything is negotiable. As for those who only have good bloodlines but no strength, we don't care about them! "
"Hmm?" When Song Zhong heard that, he seemed to understand something and said, "I think I understand. What you guys value is not the Divine River Pattern on my back, but the great strength that this Divine River Pattern represents, right?"
"That's right!" The Empress said frankly, "You have a bright future. Jin Dan Elixir beat up an Original Infant Realm expert until he couldn't tell north from north. It can be seen that your future is limitless. That's why we value you and treat you well. If you only have the Divine River Pattern, but your strength and potential are too low, I won't let you be the Crown Prince! "
"Ah, I understand now!" Song Zhong said with a smile, "In other words, even if I become a human, I can still lead the demons and conquer the world, right?"
"That's right. However, it doesn't matter if you conquer the world, but don't treat us like fools. If you cause us to suffer heavy casualties and you don't get anything in return, those guys will rebel!" The Empress threatened.
"Understood, understood!" Song Zhong nodded and then asked curiously, "Speaking of which, aren't you afraid that I'm a spy sent by the humans?"
"Spy?" Hearing this, the Empress couldn't help but laugh, "If it was in the past, I would definitely be wary of you. But now, you've destroyed the Jade Pearl Pavilion, destroyed the Thousands Desire Sect, ambushed their main force in the Eastern Ocean, and even took down the Eastern Ocean Alliance. If you can still be a spy after all this, I'm afraid I can be a spy too! "
Song Zhong laughed bitterly, "Actually, I didn't want to be so ruthless. I was forced!"
"Hahaha, then I really have to thank the people who forced you. If not for them, not only would we not be able to find such a good Crown Prince, we would also have gained a terrifying enemy!" The Empress laughed loudly, "But now, it's all for us! Let's drink! "
As the Empress said that, she downed another jar of wine. As for Song Zhong, other than laughing bitterly, he was also somewhat touched. Even though he was a human, what humans brought to him was mostly hatred, framing, and pain. On the contrary, it was the demons that made him feel a different kind of kinship and trust. His broken heart once again gained a trace of warmth.
At this moment, the Empress suddenly asked, "Right kid, now that you've destroyed the Eastern Ocean Alliance, what do you plan to do next? Go straight to the root of the problem and take over the entire Infinite Boundless Mountain? "
"No, no!" Song Zhong hurriedly waved his hands, "We don't have such ability now. Because of the Eastern Ocean Alliance's merciless slaughter of the islands along the coast, there aren't many demonic beasts on our land. It's difficult to even take down a sect, so it's best that we don't act rashly now!"
"Then what do you mean?" The Empress frowned.
"Very simple, drag it out!" Song Zhong said, "The current situation is in our favor. After taking over the Eastern Ocean Alliance, we can attack or retreat, completely taking the initiative. They've suffered heavy losses here, so they probably won't launch a large-scale battle in the short term. We can use this time to recuperate. Without the suppression of the Eastern Ocean Alliance, the number of demonic beasts will increase rapidly. Once the numbers are sufficient, we can push out and take down the entire Infinite Boundless Mountain! So our best option now is to drag it out as much as possible! "
"En, that makes sense. I didn't expect you to know so many twists and turns! " The Empress then said casually, "Since that's the case, you'll be in charge of everything along the Eastern Ocean Alliance. If you can defeat them, then fight them. If you can't, I'll go personally and help you kill them! "
As she spoke, the Empress finally collapsed on the table, drunk. Then, loud snoring sounds could be heard.
Although the Empress had fallen into a deep sleep, SongZhong was still moved by her trust. Looking at the beautiful Empress who was dressed like a beggar, Song Zhong secretly swore in his heart, "If you don't let me down, I won't let you down. The Eastern Ocean Empire is my second home!"
Then, Song Zhong quietly covered the Empress with a blanket, then quietly went out.
As soon as Song Zhong left, the Empress, who was in deep sleep, opened her eyes and said with dissatisfaction, 'What a silly boy. With my abilities, do I still need to rely on a blanket to keep out the cold?'
Although Her Majesty the Empress appeared to be extremely disdainful, her heart was warm. She comfortably turned over, and then fell into a deep sleep again.
After walking out of the main hall, the old steward Ao Tian who was waiting outside hurriedly came over and asked, "Your Highness, what did His Majesty say?"
"She gave me full authority to take charge of the war along the East Sea!" Song Zhong said unhurriedly.
"Aiya, that's great. With Your Majesty's word, no one will dare to disobey!" Ao Tian immediately said happily.
However, when Song Zhong heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! Could it be that without her words, my subordinates would dare to disobey me? Who are you calling unconvinced? See if I don't slap him to death! "
Ao Tian smiled bitterly and said, "If they were together, there would definitely be a lot of people who would disobey you. But now that you have taken down the Eastern Ocean Alliance, there would definitely be no one who would disobey you! "
"That's right!" Song Zhong suddenly asked, "Oh right, how is the situation of the other four divisions? How far have they progressed? " (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
