"Well, I have an idea?"
Xu Shenxing, who was lying on the side, wagged his tail and raised his hand to ask.
"Do you have anything to say, Sir?"
Eleena, who was already troubled by Falsilitz's tough attitude, immediately followed Xu Shenxing's lead.
"Don't you think the situation in this guy's dream is familiar?"
Xu Shenxing asked Eleena and the others as he sat on Falsiliz's back and pointed at the roaring demons below with his claws.
Despite being one of the Four Legendary Generals, Falsilitz's strength was outstanding. With the name 'Falsilitz the Steel Jade', he had almost unlimited physical strength. In the last war between the Demon King's Army and the humans 15 years ago, in order to buy time for the Demon King's Army, he single-handedly moved three mountains to the plains on the path of the human army. This delayed the human army's advance by more than half a day. If it weren't for the fact that the human army had magicians who could use wind magic to speed up their advance, the delay would have been doubled.
Falsilitz's skin was also very tough. So far, other than Finn's Sword of the King, there was no other weapon in this world that could hurt him in his true form.
What? Xu Shenxing's Holy Sword of the End, Rolandur? If Xu Shenxing really pulled that thing out, the already fragile lattice world would also be half destroyed, okay …?
Even if he encountered another one of the Four Legendary Generals, the battle maniac Soroya, Falsilitz would still win.
It could even be said that in the entire Demon King's Army, there was no one who could beat Falsilitz in physical strength.
It was no wonder that 'Boyant of Xinrui', who was known for his wisdom, would let Falsilitz take over as the new Demon King after Eleena, the former Demon King, left.
Of course, it was useless. Finn and the others were too slow, so Xu Shenxing simply clawed Falsilitz to the ground.
Falsilitz was still struggling, but when Xu Shenxing sat on his back, he was surprised to find that no matter how hard he struggled, he could not get rid of the tiny black cat on his back.
It would have been fine if that was all, but the thing was, for some reason, this guy was heavier than a mountain. Falsilitz tried his best to bend his spine, but he could not even lift himself up.
"Are you saying that it's similar to the situation in Vincent's Church?"
Finn asked thoughtfully.
Indeed, although the Church had been working hard to hunt down the remnants of the Demon King's Army and various demons after its revival, until more than a year ago, the Church's actions were still considered stable and orderly. Both the incident in St. Vincent's Church and the situation in Farsilitz's were abnormal. The Church's reaction was too extreme.
"Didn't Eleena capture the soul of the bishop and interrogate it? She said that a higher demon had turned him into a demon, hinting and tacitly allowing him to do such a thing. If you think about it carefully, don't you think that such actions are forcing the powerful demons to become enemies with humans?"
Xu Shenxing nodded. He did not intend to beat around the bush, and directly said what he thought.
"If there were members of the Church that this Fa-Something met who had been instigated by that 'superior demon', it would make sense for him to act so aggressively."
Eleena seemed to want to argue for the demons, but in the end, she gave up and went into deep thought.
Seeing this, Xu Shenxing slapped away Falsilitz's hand, which had almost grabbed his tail, and continued speaking.
"Then here comes the question. Learning Excavation Magic … Bah, who is that 'higher demon'?"
"But when we interrogated that fellow's soul, according to his description of the higher demon's appearance, there were no obvious characteristics …"
To most humans, the higher demons looked the same in their true form. It was just like how most people in the Celestial Empire thought that black people looked the same. Only demons like Falsilitz, whose body had undergone specialization due to excessive power, would have obvious characteristics. Therefore, the information obtained from the bishop's soul was useless.
Eleena was a little confused. Xu Shenxing was present at the time, and should have known this very well.
"Appearance is often the most unreliable reference standard," Xu Shenxing snorted. "Don't forget, I was still a human when I came to this world last time …"
This example was so convincing that Mr. and Mrs. Finn were speechless.
Speaking of which, how did you become like this …?
Although they were all very curious about this, they were all very wise and didn't touch this bad luck.
"What's more, if I'm not mistaken, most higher demons like to show off their personal bravery by putting some unique symbols on their bodies, right?" Xu Shenxing continued. Just like the Lighthouse Country on Earth, the Great Demonic Realm was a place where individual heroism was highly advocated. Therefore, many demons liked to make themselves non-mainstream. Xu Shenxing had even seen a demon poke a dozen things like Tienten Fried Dough Twists on his body.
"In this way, the lack of characteristics is even more suspicious, isn't it? It's almost like … "
"Someone is secretly promoting the reorganization of the demon king's army." Finn's face had become very serious as he followed Xu Shenxing's words.
Originally, if the two races had friction for various reasons and ended up in a war, there would be nothing that could be done. If it weren't for Xu Shenxing's arrival this time, even as a hero, he wouldn't have participated too much except to help when the humans were at a disadvantage.
But if this kind of friction and war were caused by someone, then as a former member of the 'Salvation' team, even if it was just to maintain world peace, he would definitely take action and kill the guy who wanted to make a big news.
"Then, Your Excellency, who do you think would do such a thing?" Finn asked hurriedly.
"I don't know." Xu Shenxing's straightforward answer almost made the demon king and his wife knock their heads on the floor. Fortunately, he had no intention of making fun of them. "But I think there are two possible culprits. The first is the person who benefits the most from this incident, and the second is the person who can't wait to push the situation further."
Finn and Eleena looked at each other, and then said the same name in unison (after torturing Xu Shenxing), "Boyant!"
