It was not until the whole centipede had burrowed into his body and Cui Xiaoxin's hand left his body that the King of the Hui nation recovered his divine sense and body.
No, he had been conscious the whole time and had even watched as Cui Xiaoxin stuffed a centipede into his head.
That centipede was so huge and as thick as an arm, he didn't know how it had crawled in — — Of course, now was not the time to investigate this question.
The King of the Hui nation gasped for breath. The scene he had just witnessed almost suffocated him.
He took a few breaths of fresh air until his body felt a little better and he didn't faint in public. Then he began to think about what he should do.
What should he do?
Yes, condemn!
When the weak can't beat the enemy, they always have to say a few words to gain an advantage. Otherwise, others will think they are easy to bully.
"You — —"
As soon as the King of the Hui nation opened his mouth, a huge centipede appeared in Cui Xiaoxin's palm again.
This centipede was thick and long, and was even more terrifying than the one that had just crawled into the top of his head. It waved its dense claws in front of the King of the Hui nation, giving people the feeling that it could drill into the King's mouth at any time.
So, the King of the Hui nation immediately shut up.
"Impudent, how dare you assassinate His Majesty — —" Eunuch Rui screamed in a shrill voice. He was also stunned by what was happening in front of him.
Previously, when he wanted to stop Cui Xiaoxin from approaching the King of the Hui nation, the King of the Hui nation had spoken out to stop him. He didn't want to ruin the King's plans. Otherwise, who knows when he would be wrapped in a mat and thrown into a well.
When Cui Xiaoxin and Cui Xichen first came in, Eunuch Rui had tested their aura.
It was weak and chaotic, not like a cultivator at all, and there was no sign of vital energy flowing in their body.
What could a weak woman with no strength to truss a chicken do to His Majesty?
The next change caught him off guard. By the time he wanted to save the King, he found that His Lord had fallen into the hands of Cui Xiaoxin. If he acted rashly, there would only be a dead end.
Cui Xiaoxin looked at Eunuch Rui, and Eunuch Rui's voice abruptly stopped.
What kind of eyes were those?
Killing, despair, and lifeless, it made people unable to have any desire to struggle.
An absurd thought appeared in Eunuch Rui's mind. He mustn't move. If he did, she'd swallow him whole.
This was a person who looked like he would eat people!
Cui Xiaoxin was obviously very satisfied with Eunuch Rui's attitude, so she stuffed the big centipede in her palm into Eunuch Rui's mouth.
Eunuch Rui wanted to struggle and resist, but he found that his body couldn't move at all.
It was hard to imagine. How could this woman not have the aura of a cultivator in her body, yet she was able to render him unable to fight back, like a dead fish on the chopping block waiting to be slaughtered?
"Cough, cough, cough …"
When Cui Xiaoxin loosened her grip, Eunuch Rui started coughing violently. He even reached in and tried to pull the centipede out.
But, how could he pull it out?
"This is a Soul Devouring Centipede, formed from my thoughts — — It feeds on human souls to survive and grow stronger." Cui Xiaoxin looked at the King of Hui and Eunuch Rui, her voice was light and very pleasant to the ear. "Of course, it is also controlled by my thoughts. Now they are in your body, so, for your little life — — a thought to live, a thought to die. Do you understand what I mean? "
Understood!
How could they not understand?
The King of Hui and Eunuch Rui exchanged a glance with each other, knowing that they had become hostages in the hands of Cui Xiaoxin.
The King of Hui dared not to lash out at Cui Xiaoxin, but he had to find a place to vent his anger and grievances.
He glared fiercely at Cui Xichen, saying in a cold voice: "Cui Xichen, since you want to be a good dog, you should listen to your master — — Is that why you want to meet the Emperor? Is that your intention to have a secret talk? You let your granddaughter kill us, in order to help you control the West Wind Imperial family? "
"Your Majesty — —" Cui Xichen stood there, his face ashen, as he uttered in a low voice: "She is not my granddaughter."
"Cui Xiaoxin, you still want to deny it, you brought her here, the whole Tiandu knows that Cui Xiaoxin is your granddaughter — — how can this be false?"
"Your Majesty, she really is not my granddaughter — — I did bring her here, but it was not my intention to coerce Your Majesty. My granddaughter Cui Xiaoxin does not have such a vicious heart, ruthless means — — she is just a weak woman. "
"If she is not Cui Xiaoxin, then who is she?"
"I do not know!"
At this moment, the eyes of the three people in the Hall of Benevolence and Harmony were all focused on Cui Xiaoxin's face.
If she is not Cui Xiaoxin, then who is she?
"You don't have to speculate about my identity, it doesn't matter to you." The corners of Cui Xiaoxin's mouth curved in an indifferent smile. "No matter who I am, from today on, I am your master — — or, your soul will be eaten by the soul devouring centipede, your blood will be sucked clean, and you will become a dried corpse."
"You are a demon?" Cui Xichen said in a cold voice.
"Grandpa really has sharp eyes and extraordinary knowledge — —" Cui Xiaoxin turned to look at Cui Xichen, smiled and said: "By the way, I haven't thanked Grandpa for bringing me to see the Emperor."
"Who are you in the demon race?"
"Guess?"
"You seized Xiaoxin's body?"
"I don't like the word 'seize', I just temporarily borrowed it — —"
"With your cultivation base, you can directly break into the palace, why did you seize my granddaughter's body? Why did you trick me, a good-for-nothing old man, to bring you to see the Emperor? "
"The palace is heavily guarded, if I force my way in, it will naturally alarm the Emperor's bodyguards. At that time, the movement will be so big, how can I carry out my plan? If I don't want to expose my aura, and don't use my cultivation method, how can I pass through the heavy palace walls? So, Grandpa, don't belittle yourself, you have made a great contribution to my demon race — — wait until my demon army sweeps through the divine continent, I will definitely reward you according to your contribution. "
"I know what Grandpa is trying to do is to revitalize the family. At that time, the Cui clan will be the most distinguished clan in the divine continent." Cui Xiaoxin giggled, tender and beautiful like a flower. "After all, we are grandfather and grandson, the Cui clan is also my family."
"No need." Cui Xichen refused. "Since your goal has been achieved, it is not appropriate for this old man to stay here — — I will leave first."
"I will go with Grandpa." Cui Xiaoxin stepped forward to support Cui Xichen. Cui Xichen was just about to resist when he found that his body suddenly had no strength, and was only able to walk forward after being dragged by Cui Xiaoxin. "We came together, so naturally we have to leave together. I still have things to discuss with Grandpa. "
"I am a human, you are a demon, humans and demons cannot coexist. I would rather die than be threatened by you. "Cui Xichen stiffly refused.
Cui Xichen's words were to express his feelings, and at the same time to remind King Hui and Eunuch Rui not to act according to her intentions just because they were controlled by the Devil King, and do wrong things that would harm the human race and the common people.
King Hui naturally understood his meaning, but his eyes were full of murderous intent as he looked at him.
If it weren't for this old man, they would not have had such an encounter. King Hui wished he could tear this old dog Cui Xichen to pieces.
"Grandpa's words make Xiaoxin sad. In any case, Xiaoxin is Grandpa's granddaughter — — "
"I just ask you to let Xiaoxin go, she only likes poetry and books, she is kind-hearted, these mundane things have nothing to do with her."
"Do you know why I didn't plant this soul devouring centipede in Grandpa's body?"
"Because — — you took Xiaoxin as a hostage."
"No, it's because I know Grandpa will not hurt his own granddaughter. After all, this is your favourite junior. I'm right, right? "
"— —"
"Grandpa seems to be a little unhappy even though you've promised him such a great benefit." Cui Xiaoxin said with a smile. "What's the difference between the subjects of the human race and the subjects of the demon race? When the entire divine continent is controlled by the demon race, Grandpa will know how much benefit I have gained today. "
"I'm old!" Cui Xichen sighed deeply. "I'm afraid I won't see that day."
"I can see that day will come soon." When Cui Xiaoxin was holding Cui Xichen's arm as they walked out, as if she suddenly thought of something, she turned to the King of Hui and said: "If I let the soldiers of the West Wind Kingdom take the initiative to attack, Your Majesty should not have any opinion, right?"
"What?"
"The nine countries of the divine continent have formed an anti-demon army, with the Great Wall as the boundary — — If the West Wind Kingdom can take the initiative to attack, I will be very grateful."
"What do you mean? I don't understand. "
"I need the anti-demon army to step out of the Great Wall."
"The political situation of the West Wind Kingdom is complicated, the general is outside, the emperor's orders cannot be obeyed."
"I understand. Although I'm not Cui Xiaoxin, I have inherited all her memories. What she knows, I also know. So, I know you're just a puppet emperor. "
"In that case — —" The King of Hui felt humiliated. "Why did you come to me?"
"Division!" Cui Xiaoxin said frankly and directly. "I need the human allied forces to divide."
"I'm afraid I have to disappoint you."
"Is that so?" Cui Xiaoxin's pupils reddened, and then the King of Hui clutched his head and screamed.
However, his mouth was wide open, but no sound came out.
What was more terrifying was that the pain was not something that a human could bear.
He fell from the chair, rolling on the ground and howling, as if he had gone mad.
"Your Majesty — —" Eunuch Rui looked anxious, but dared not to get angry at Cui Xiaoxin. "Let His Majesty go, he can't take it anymore — —"
"Let me go — — let me go — — I promise you — — I promise you anything — —" The King of Hui was in excruciating pain, clutching his head with both hands as he crawled over to Cui Xiaoxin, trying to beg for her forgiveness.
"That's tactful!" The red pupils in Cui Xiaoxin's eyes disappeared, and the pain in the King's head, as if thousands of poisonous insects were gnawing at his brain, also instantly disappeared.
"I promise — —" The King of Hui collapsed to the ground, his face filled with fear. "I promise, I promise you anything — —"
"Then I'll give you the good news." Cui Xiaoxin said aloud.
"Your Majesty, think twice!" Cui Xichen urged. Although he wanted to fight for power and profit, he did not want to be associated with the Demon Race. If it was because of them that the Divine continent fell into the hands of a foreign race, it would be a sinner for all eternity. "The Human and Demon Race are sworn enemies, Your Majesty must not yield and destroy the unity of the anti-demon coalition army."
"I promise — — I promise you everything — —" It was only a moment of pain, but the King of Hui had already fallen into such a painful situation. His image was completely gone, his nose was covered in tears, and he was repeating these lines over and over again.
"Your Majesty — —"
Cui Xichen wanted to persuade him again, but was dragged away by Cui Xiaoxin.
"Grandpa, it's no use. Even if you persuade the King of Hui, you can't stop the general trend. When I came to West Wind, perhaps the Great Wu, Great Zhou, the Peacock Imperial Court and the Black Flame Empire — — the same thing is happening. "
"The Human Race is in danger!"
