"Sure enough, there is an ulterior motive." Li Muyang sighed heavily in his heart.
This was not good, very bad.
One of the three high priests of the Abyss Race, an old monster whose strength was not weaker than the Lord of the Demon Race, occupied Qiandu's body, and still wanted to become the Emperor of the Divine continent — —
The most terrible thing was that Li Muyang could do nothing about it.
"You, a demon, want to be the Lord of the Divine continent — —" Li Muyang looked into Qiandu's eyes. "Do you think this is possible?"
"What do you think?" Qiandu said aloud, "I know you want to stop it, but it's very difficult to do it — — As long as I occupy this body, as long as I become Ying Qiandu — — then it's not impossible."
"Yes." Li Muyang had a helpless expression on his face. "As long as you occupy Qiandu's body, as long as the world thinks you are Ying Qiandu, it's not impossible."
"I can't tell others that Qiandu's body is occupied by a demon priest. It's not good for her, it's not good for the Peacock imperial court. If the world knew about this, the Peacock imperial court's expedition to the seven countries will collapse and have no chance of winning. Even the people of the Peacock imperial court will find it hard to accept that the First Princess they trust and respect is a demon — — "
"As long as this secret is not exposed, Qiandu is still Qiandu — — and because of your existence, the Peacock imperial court can get this opportunity more easily. When the Peacock imperial court conquers the countries and the Peacock King becomes the only monarch of the Divine continent — — then Qiandu will be infinitely close to that position. "
"Whether you wait for a while, or kill the Peacock King and take power — — it's not a difficult thing for you. After all, you have an almost immortal life and strength comparable to the Lord of the Demon Race — — when you become the Lord of the Divine continent, you will have the entire Divine continent, and have achieved what the Abyss Race has not been able to do for tens of thousands of years — — "
Li Muyang sighed softly, looking into Qiandu's eyes. "Thinking about it — — it's really tempting. Even I have a feeling of wanting to try it — — Of course, I can't enter Qiandu's body, and even if I do — — it's another way. It's different from you. "
"So, why are you still wasting time here?"
"In the past, I thought that I was a dragon. Although the Human Clan wanted to kill me, I was still a dragon after all … The Dragon Clan of the Demigod Clan … The Divine Continent is so big, is there anything I can't solve? When I heard that Qiandu was in trouble, I rushed over immediately … In order to save the woman I love, nothing is a waste of time … "
"Now I know, things are more difficult than I thought … I can't hurt you, because hurting you means hurting Qiandu. I can't kill you. If I wanted to kill you, I would have to kill Qiandu first … Perhaps, even if I kill Qiandu, I can't kill you. You only need to find a new host … Find Yan Xiangma or Gongshu Yuan. I still can't bear to hurt them, so I can't hurt you … "
"Yan Xiangma? Gongshu Yuan? "The priest was obviously unfamiliar with these two names and asked," Who are they? "
"They're my best friends, and we've been through life and death together … There's a saying in China that I'm sure you've heard of: Brothers are like hands and feet, women are like clothes, they're my hands and feet …"
"I see."
"You're not considering changing to another person?"
"Not at the moment."
"— — Then I'm relieved." Li Muyang looked discontentedly at the priest of the Evil Moon, as if he was very disappointed in him.
"Do you think you can make me give up such a decision by persuasion? Give up this body? " Qiandu stared at Li Muyang with a mocking expression, her eyes were bloodshot as she said, "Isn't the Dragon Clan getting worse and worse? Although they were used by the Human Clan tens of thousands of years ago, the Dragon Clan at that time still had the corresponding wisdom and authority … I didn't expect that after tens of thousands of years, the Human Clan is getting more and more cunning, while the Dragon Clan is getting worse and worse … "
"Where there's competition, there's improvement. There are so many humans, and they fight each other every day. They have rich combat experience, so they naturally train their brains … There's only one dragon left, and it has spent tens of thousands of years hugging and rolling around with a firebird … It's such a good time, but it doesn't know how to make progress, and it does these things all day long that make people blush … It's understandable that the dragon race has fallen. "
"The Dragon Clan is really shameless." Qiandu sighed softly. "Because of your Dragon Clan identity, I was willing to talk to you more — — but I didn't expect the Dragon Clan to be so vulnerable. If the Dragon Clan tens of thousands of years ago could be like you, the fertile land of the divine continent — — would have fallen into the hands of the Abyss Clan? "
"Look, you're insulting me again. If you weren't hiding in Qiandu's body, I would have hit you long ago — — "Li Muyang said fiercely, but did not look angry at all. "How about this, let's make a deal?"
"What deal?"
"You want the Peacock imperial court to unify the nine countries, you want Qiandu to become the ruler of the divine continent, right?"
"Of course."
"I think so too — — so, you see, we have something in common."
"— —"
"Since our goal is so consistent, why can't we join hands and accomplish this great feat together?" Li Muyang asked aloud.
Qiandu's eyes studied Li Muyang thoughtfully. "You already know that the current Qiandu is not the original Qiandu, and I have occupied Qiandu's consciousness — — why do you still want to help me? You should know that even if the Peacock imperial court wins and Qiandu becomes the ruler of the divine continent — — the one who really controls the divine continent is me. "
"I know." Li Muyang explained. "Even so, I can't see Qiandu lose, the Peacock imperial court lose — — If the Peacock imperial court is defeated, as the Princess of the Peacock imperial court, Qiandu's situation will be even more difficult. I can't let Qiandu fail, I don't want to see her disappointed in herself — — So, I'm going to stay and help her, and also help you win this war. "
"You still haven't given up?"
"Before I give up on a woman, how can I be assured of her safety — — If you want me to pretend that nothing has happened and leave now, I naturally can't do it. Just as you don't want to give up power, and I don't want to give up a beautiful woman. I don't think the latter is lighter than the former, but is more valuable in my heart. So, if you don't leave, I won't leave either. "
"So, what deal do you want to make with me?"
"You let me stay, I'll help you fight the seven countries."
"Your appearance is not appropriate, it will only bring negative effects — — An evil dragon is helping the Peacock imperial court fight in all directions, what will the people of other countries think? They would rather die in battle than surrender to the Peacock imperial court — — After all, there are already such rumours in the outside world. They will have such worries, what if you like to eat people's hearts and livers? "
"Are you very proud when you say these words?" Li Muyang sneered. "The sins of the Abyss Race, now we have to bear the consequences — —"
"So, the Human Race cannot be trusted, the Human Race cannot be saved."
"I'm not just saving the Human Race, I'm saving my beloved woman — —" Li Muyang looked at Qiandu's face, the corners of his mouth curved in a gentle smile. "Compared with her, the weight of the entire Human Race added up is not enough."
But in his heart he was thinking: Father, Mother, Shinian, and many friends, please forgive me, I just want to brag in front of this demon and pretend to be a saint of love — — Your weight is also very heavy, as heavy as Qiandu's. Later I will say those words to each of you, a dragon must be fair and just.
His eyes flashed with a red light, and there was a thoughtful expression on his face.
After a long while, Qiandu said aloud, "I accept the deal."
"Deal." Li Muyang said with a smile.
"The reason why I am willing to accept this deal is not because I think you can help me — —" The demon in Qiandu's body evidently did not want to see Li Muyang's overly happy appearance. "I just think it might be more interesting — — I know what you want to do by staying, you want to protect her, you want to find a chance to save her. But, I don't care at all, on the contrary, I'm looking forward to it — — "
Qiandu let out a deep sigh, a sigh that did not sound like a young girl's, but more like an old monster that had lived for thousands of years. "After all, lurking in the human race for tens of thousands of years, it's really — — too lonely."
"— —" Li Muyang was speechless.
He had only played the role of a love saint, and he immediately played the role of a peerless master — — In this show-off, Li Muyang was defeated by the more skillful demon.
"You can stay." Qiandu looked at Li Muyang without a trace of arrogance in her eyes. "Whatever you want to do, do as you please. If you want to reveal my identity, that's also up to you. However, you should understand that no matter what you do, the one who will be hurt — — will be the woman I have occupied. "
"I understand." Li Muyang nodded. "I understand this better than anyone else."
"I'm tired." Qiandu said. Obviously, she had lost interest in chatting with the "useless dragon" Li Muyang. She had thought that he was a dragon, a dragon that caused the invasion of the Abyss Race to fail, a demigod race worthy of respect — — but now she realized that she had wasted a lot of time.
Li Muyang reached out and held Qiandu's hand tightly. "Don't worry, don't be afraid, I'll be with you. I'll always be by your side. "
"You should know — —" The demon in Qiandu's body was clearly not used to Li Muyang's closeness, and wanted to pull her hand out of Li Muyang's grasp. But because Li Muyang was holding her hand too tightly, unless she chose to fight with Li Muyang or directly break her hand, it was impossible to do so. "She doesn't realize that you're holding … — — my hand."
"Oh." Li Muyang's grip tightened. "I just wanted to see if I could force you out this way — —"
Li Muyang let go of Qiandu's hand and said aloud, "It seems that I was thinking too much."
