There was no trace of blood on Bauhinia's pale face, and the corners of his mouth were overflowing with blood. Such a stark contrast was presented in front of Uchiha Chen, but this gave Bauhinia a unique morbid beauty, although he was slightly inferior to Ino Konan, he wasn't that far off.
Each of the three women had their own merits, but Chen didn't care. What kind of woman hadn't he seen before? He only looked at Akane with appreciation, and there was no other strange look in his eyes.
Akane felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Chen, but he didn't feel the slightest bit of disgust. This made Akane feel very strange. After all, this was something that had never happened before. However, being stared at by Chen like this made Akane feel very strange.
"Chen -san?" Akane looked at Chen strangely.
"What's wrong?" Chen smiled and didn't look at Akane anymore.
"I heard from Qian Feng that you agreed to our request?"
"Barely." Uchiha Chen shrugged and said indifferently.
Chen's tone was very relaxed and casual, but Akane didn't see it that way. She suddenly stood up, and her body swayed slightly with her sudden movement.
However, she still stood up, looked at Chen with a solemn face, and suddenly bowed deeply to Chen.
"Thank you -san for your great contribution to the Land of Demons and the world. We will never forget your kindness!" Akane looked at Chen with a serious face and said.
"It's okay." Chen waved his hand, and then said with a funny face, "Your Land of Demons paid such a big price, and I didn't help you for free. I asked for a lot of rewards!"
Hearing Chen's words, Akane covered her face with her hands and said with a smile, "You are too polite. How can the small reward we paid be compared to your contribution to the world? Not to mention a small reward, even if you want the entire Land of Demons, it wouldn't be too much. "
"What a nice way to put it." Chen didn't comment on Akane's words, and then he suddenly thought of something and said with a smirk, "How do you know that I can help you? What if I don't have the strength? Wouldn't you have paid such a big price for nothing?"
Akane seemed to know that Chen would say this, so she didn't hide it and said generously, "The time of the demon's birth is getting closer and closer. I can clearly feel that my ability to suppress the demon is getting weaker and weaker. I believe that it won't be long before he completely breaks the seal and comes out. When that time comes, it will be a disaster that will sweep the world! We are now at a dead end. "
After saying that, she smiled and looked at Shen. "Additionally, I had a dream. In the dream, you appeared. In the dream, you successfully sealed the demonic creature and saved the world. Coincidentally, you also appeared in the Land of Ghosts. We're already at the end of our rope, so we can only gamble on this as a last resort. Anyway, the demon is about to break out of its seal. How bad can it be? "
As she said this, Akane's face showed a sad expression.
Akane didn't speak. The situation in the Land of Demons was very bad. It couldn't be worse. Although it looked peaceful, ordinary people would think that nothing had happened.
But whether it was the higher-ups of the Land of Demons or the Kage of other villages, they were very clear that the Land of Demons was now in a precarious situation. If there was no accident, the demon is likely to break the seal in the next second. The various countries have already prepared for the worst.
But they didn't dare to expose the news. Only those who have experienced the demon breaking the seal will understand how terrible the demon is. No matter how many people there are, it's useless in front of the demon. The more people there are, the stronger the demon will be.
The more people there are, the more negative factors it will absorb. The demon's power will increase infinitely until no one in the world can stop it.
It was for this reason that Akane decided to go all in. If Uchiha Chen didn't appear, she would most likely sacrifice herself to reinforce the seal again. In this way, she can survive for a few more years. But now, Uchiha Chen's appearance gave Akane hope.
However, what she didn't say was that her injuries weren't caused by suppressing the demonic creatures, but by secretly investigating Uchiha Chen, which aggravated her injuries. There was an unknown force in Chen's body that blocked Akane's investigation and even caused her to suffer a backlash.
It was because of this that Akane couldn't suppress the demon's resistance.
"Mr. Chen, we are now at the end of our rope. I hope you can lend us a hand to successfully seal the demonic creature and save the world!" Akane bowed deeply and kowtowed in front of Uchiha Chen. If Chen didn't agree, she would kneel for a long time.
"You are putting me in a difficult position." Chen's face was not good. Although he promised to help Akane, it didn't mean that Chen had the obligation to do so. Shen didn't want to see someone like Bauhinia staking all their chips on him.
With Chen's temperament, even if Akane didn't ask, he would help under the system's requirements. But he didn't have the obligation to make such a decision.
Akane's words were based on the general trend. She wanted to use the general trend to suppress Uchiha Chen and force him to help.
Akane thought that Akane was smart enough to think that Uchiha Chen would help her. In fact, this was the most stupid thing to do.
With Uchiha Chen's character of being amenable to coaxing but not coercion, he won't fall for this trick.
"I hope this is the first and last time." Chen coldly snorted. His eyes were sharp, and his aura shook. A powerful aura burst out, and the injured Bauhinia was weak. How could she withstand Chen's aura?
Under the fierce impact, Akane had to use her hands to block in front of her. Even so, her body was pushed back. The wind blew, and Akane's clothes fluttered.
"Bang!" Zi Jing, who couldn't bear the impact, missed his footing and crashed into the stone statue behind him.
Akane spat out a mouthful of blood, and then fell to the ground softly. She couldn't get up for a long time.
Uchiha Chen's face was expressionless, and he didn't have the slightest intention of showing mercy. He looked at Bauhinia coldly, stood up, and walked in front of Bauhinia, and said coldly, "Put away those little thoughts of yours, don't try to be smart!"
