However, what was done could not be undone. There was no way to take back his words. Bai Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Demon Monarch, you misunderstand. We didn't want to do that back then, but we were forced to do it."
Yue Qianchou, Da Ming Lun, and Jin Tai all held their breaths in concentration. They had already vaguely guessed who he was going to implicate.
"Force?" Demon King Three Nights laughed maniacally, pointing at the two and shouting: "Speak! I'd like to see who's scheming against me. " From his tone, it was clear that he didn't believe Bai Qi's words. He was waiting for Bai Qi to say who it was to expose his lies and then humiliate him. This was the only way. The two were communicating across two realms, so there was no other way but to humiliate each other.
"Demon Monarch, you might not know, but in the ancient forest of the Immortal Realm, there is a wood spirit with profound cultivation …"
Before Bai Qi finished speaking, Demon Monarch Three Nights' expression changed as if he had thought of something. His sharp gaze interrupted, "Mu Yuanzi of the Wood Killer Sea! Are you talking about him? "
"Uh …" Bai Qi stilled. Even Jin Tai didn't know Old Man Mu's name and residence. He didn't think that Demon Monarch Three Nights would be able to identify the other's origins. Bai Qi couldn't help but mess up his plans. He was afraid that the two had a close relationship and wouldn't be able to fool him. But when he thought about it, he decided that he might as well be ruthless. Only when the three realms became more chaotic would Demon Monarch Three Nights have more use for them. Otherwise, Demon Monarch Three Nights would be able to do something like cooking all the hares.
He said decisively, "Demon Monarch, please understand! It is that Mu Yuanzi of the Wood Killer Sea who is forcing us. His cultivation is profound, and we have no power to resist. But what Demon Monarch doesn't know is that Mu Yuanzi of the Wood Killer Sea isn't the only one involved. There are also a bunch of old fellows from the Netherworld Spirit Office fanning the flames. Otherwise, Demon Monarch, with just the two of us, how would we dare to become enemies with the entire Devil Path? "
Jin Tai exclaimed in his heart, "Wonderful!" The Netherworld Immortal Mansion, Old Man Mu, and the Devil Path. If these three parties were to fight against each other, there would be a greater chance of fishing in troubled waters.
Yue Qianchou's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself that they were indeed ruthless. It was clear that they were either succeeding or dying for a righteous cause. Even if they didn't have a good ending, they would drag the whole world down with them! But what puzzled Yue Qianchou was, was the Demon King Three Nights so gullible? Once Demon Lord Three Nights came out, he would be able to tell the truth with a single check. How could he be fooled?
What he didn't know was that those who could reach the pinnacle had all gambled. There weren't many good things waiting for you to do in the world. Bai Qi and Jin Tai had gambled to success in the past, and Yue Qianchou himself had gambled countless times. A commoner gambled a little, while a big shot gambled a lot. It was difficult for a person who was afraid of everything to achieve great things.
The most important thing was that the Netherworld Immortal Mansion, Old Man Mu, and the Demon King Three Nights were not people who would tolerate the other party's condemnation. If they did not agree with each other, they would fight to the death. There was basically no possibility of a good talk until the winner was decided. In addition, there was no way out, so Bai Qi had every reason to take a gamble.
"And the Netherworld Immortal Mansion …" Demon Lord Three Nights' eyebrows twitched like a horned dragon. No one knew what he was thinking, but he looked over and sneered. He flicked his scarlet cloak and sat down on the blood jade throne. He stared at the two of them and said with a faint smile, "You two are very honest. You've said everything that should and shouldn't be said. I'm afraid it's not that simple to see me today! If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don't beat around the bush with me. "
"Demon Lord, please understand!" Bai Qi cupped his hands and said sincerely, "Regarding what we did in the past, the two of us have been unable to eat or sleep in peace. After thinking about it again and again, we finally made a difficult decision. We're going to open the seal of the Devil World and let the Demon Lord rule the world again!"
As soon as these words came out, Demon Lord Three Nights, who had just regained his composure, stood up again with a frightening aura. The thick black aura around his body was like a black dragon. Even though his mind was as steady as steel, he couldn't help but be moved when he heard these words. His eyes flickered. He knew that after so many years, Jin Tai and Bai Qi had suddenly come to visit him. This matter was probably not a joke.
Bai Qi and Jin Tai exchanged glances. Seeing that Demon Lord Three Nights had lost his composure, it meant that there was hope.
However, Demon Lord Three Nights was not someone to be trifled with. He calmed down in an instant and slowly sat down with his scarlet cloak on his back. He said sarcastically, "There's such a good thing? Unless the two of you are tired of living, that's more like it. Speak! Just what happened outside to force the two of you to this state? "
Bai Qi was about to reply when he saw Demon Lord Three Nights point at Jin Tai with an imposing aura. "Of the five great spirits of heaven and earth, my Devil World has the two spirits of metal and earth. Jin Tai! You were originally a member of my Devil World. Back then, you said that you would serve me, so I gave you a chance. How come you've become mute after seeing this lord? Bai Qi, shut up and speak! "
He was a member of the Devil World? Yue Qianchou and Da Ming Lun looked at Jin Tai in shock. No wonder this fellow was so inhumane. He was from the Devil Dao.
Jin Tai adjusted his expression and solemnly cupped his hands. "Demon Lord's eyes are like a torch. Nothing can be hidden from you. Back then, we were forced by Mu Yuanzi and the Netherworld Immortal Estate to do something we shouldn't have done. We've been under their control like puppets. All these years, we've been serving them with fear and trepidation. Who knew that they'd somehow found out that we might be your subordinates? Thus, they set up a new representative in the Immortal and Netherworld Realms and tried to kill us. Now that the Immortal Palace and Netherworld Imperial Palace have been taken over, the two of us have been forced into a corner. Thus, we've come to beg Demon Lord to give us justice. "
As expected, none of them were easy to deal with! When Yue Qianchou heard this, he sighed inwardly. His ability to lie was not any worse than his own. In the blink of an eye, he'd called him "subordinate". His skin was really thick. If these two could make it in the future, they'd have to learn from his stepmother!
"Oh!" Demon Lord Three Nights gave a lukewarm 'oh' and lightly asked: "Then why don't you tell me how they forced the two of you?" His tone was full of meaning, but it was hard to tell whether he believed or not.
Jin Tai immediately revealed an expression as if he'd been greatly wronged. He said indignantly, "They actually supported two of their enemies to become the representatives of the Immortal and Netherworld Realms. The two of us couldn't accept this and went to the ancient forest to find Mu Yuanzi. Who knew that Mu Yuanzi would personally attack the two of us for the sake of the Immortal Realm representative."
As he spoke, he pulled Bai Qi over and tore off his clothes, revealing a large wound on his chest that hadn't healed yet. There was still a faint green aura on the wound. Jin Tai pointed at the wound and said indignantly, "This is the wound from Mu Yuanzi's wooden staff. Bai Qi almost lost his life because of it. The two of us were lucky enough to escape with our lives."
"From the looks of it, this wound is indeed caused by a wood-type treasure." Demon Lord Three Nights stared at the green scar for a while, then said, "But according to what I know, Mu Yuanzi has always stood aloof from worldly affairs in Wood Massacre Sea, and he doesn't easily kill. For the two of you to provoke him, it's clear that you have indeed angered him."
It was hard to tell whether this was a suspicion or a confirmation. It was hard to be sure. He then added, "The old fellows in the Netherworld Palace have already lost their temper after being beaten by Lord Wan … Demon God. As long as the heroes of the demonic path still exist, they won't easily get involved in the disputes of the Three Realms. Why do you want me to believe that they've become disloyal again?"
When Yue Qianchou heard the word "Wan", he felt disdain in his heart. He knew the inside story. Back then, the ones who attacked the Netherworld Palace were the ancestors of all demons, Tai Shu Zheng and Ming, but Demon Lord Three Nights put the credit on his own ancestor. As expected, no one could say who was shameless. Everyone was the same.
Jin Tai cupped his hands in grief and indignation. "Demon Lord, you might not know, but back then, the Coiling Dragon God who created the Netherworld Palace had killed a Wind God. After Coiling Dragon God's spirit wandered, he left behind the Wind God's Wind God Staff in the Netherworld Palace. It's a divine weapon with unparalleled power. The old fellows in the Netherworld Palace actually gave this divine weapon to the representative they supported in the Netherworld. When Demon Lord Three Realms arrives, he will know if it's real or fake. This is the best proof. "
"The Wind God's Wind God Staff?" Demon Lord Three Nights was shocked. He seemed to have heard of this treasure and knew how powerful it was. After frowning and thinking for a long time, he suddenly looked at the two and said arrogantly, "I understand your intentions. Since the two of you are sincere in submitting to me, then I won't pursue the past. The two of you, quickly go open the seventy-four demon paths of the Immortal Realm, Netherworld Realm, and Human Realm. When the heroes of the Demon Realm return to the Three Realms, I will definitely avenge you!"
Before they even begged, the other party made a promise so easily. No matter how they listened, it made them feel uneasy. When Yue Qianchou heard this, he was instantly happy. He looked at the two acting. As expected, Jin Tai and Bai Qi's expressions became a little uncomfortable. They stuttered and didn't reply for a long time.
"What?" Demon Lord Three Nights' tiger eyes suddenly widened. He snorted coldly, "Could it be that you still want to discuss some conditions with me?" With one sentence, he shut their mouths.
However, when he came out, the two of them wouldn't dare to mention it even if they had a hundred guts. The two of them didn't doubt that the moment Demon Lord Three Nights stepped out of the Demon Realm, they would be the first to be slaughtered. They probably wouldn't be able to see the matter of revenge.
Jin Tai looked at Bai Qi. Bai Qi used the opportunity to straighten his clothes to organize his thoughts. Then, he bowed and said, "Demon Lord is wise! Back then, the two of us did something we shouldn't have done. We have always been fearful of Demon Lord's might and lived in constant fear. Now that we have no other choice, in order to save our lives, we are trembling with fear and seek an audience with Demon Lord. It's not that the two of us are greedy, but that the two of us really want to continue managing the Immortal Realm and Netherworld Realm for Demon Lord. We want to complete Demon Lord's unfinished business in order to redeem ourselves. Please, Demon Lord, give the two of us another chance. "
