On top of the mountain, inside the palace, a giant bull that was as big as a mountain but only had one leg stood there silently.
The palace that used to be infinitely spacious now looked extremely narrow.
The one-legged bull was like the center of the world.
He didn't show his power, but there were still bolts of lightning spreading around him.
The vast and boundless Lightning Essence Qi filled not only the Imperial Palace, but also the entire Great Song Royal Capital, filling up this world.
Most of the people living in this world didn't know about this. They just felt that the sky was suddenly filled with Thunder Cloud.
Frightening electric sparks would often burst out at any time and place.
In the palace on top of the mountain, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming's voice suddenly sounded, "This place is too narrow. Please forgive me for not being a good host."
As the voice sounded, a door flashing with light appeared in the hall.
The one-legged bull looked at it for a while, and his body started to change. Finally, he turned into a human.
The bull turned into a muscular man. After passing through the door, he appeared in another world.
Unexpectedly, there were no flourishing flowers here. Instead, it was a desolate and primitive scene of the desert.
In this desolate place, a man in luxurious clothes stood with his hands behind his back.
His powerful aura was comparable to that of a Great Demon. He had the aura of a ruler.
"Daoist Zhao is ambitious. You don't indulge in pleasure. You don't waste time. Tai Ting admires you."
Tai Ting, who had turned into a human, spoke for the first time. His voice was like rolling thunder.
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming said, "This place is more spacious. It can accommodate Daoist Tai Ting in his original form."
Tai Ting said, "Daoist Zhao, I appreciate your kindness. You humans have a saying that when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Since that's the case, I should make things more convenient for you."
Song Emperor reached out and asked Tai Ting to sit on the ground in the desolate place.
He sat on the ground in his dragon robe. He didn't look majestic. Instead, he looked like he could cover the entire world.
"It's just a small matter. There's no need to think too much about it." Song Emperor said, "What's important is that you're here."
Tai Ting said, "Daoist Zhao, you've invited me time and time again. Why don't you tell me why?"
Song Emperor looked at him, "Daoist Tai Ting, you should know about the changes in the Eastern Firmament."
"Chang 'an City." Tai Ting nodded and said, "I can understand your concern. However, our clan has always lived in seclusion and ignored foreign affairs. I don't care what Chang 'an City intends to do. As long as he doesn't provoke our clan, I don't intend to interfere with what he wants to do."
The Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming said indifferently, "However, according to the way the City Master of Chang 'an conducts himself, I'm afraid he won't have such an idea."
He looked at Tai Ting, the chief of the Kui Ox Clan, and said, "Can this man really ignore you and the Kui Ox Clan? Regardless of the race under his rule, all of them must obey him. "
Tai Ting fell silent.
King Song smiled and said, "I have heard that the Kirins have entered Chang 'an City. If Chang' an City is going to choose someone to speak to Thunder Valley, the Kirins will be able to speak. If the Kirins can accept this, will Leader Tai Ting and the Kui Cows be able to accept it?"
The Grand Pure One's expression was the same as before.
However, just as the Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming said, other than the Twilight Tree Demon, who was the first messenger, Chang 'an City had a second batch of messengers.
Other than some Taotie, Long Biao Tiger, and other demons that were originally born and bred in the Yan Huang Realm, there were also a few Kirins.
These demons reported their situation in Chang 'an truthfully.
Objectively speaking, they were not treated unfairly in Chang 'an because of the differences between demons and humans.
Whether they were willing to deal with humans or not, they always had a place to live and reproduce.
The problem was that all of this had a premise.
If the City Master of Chang 'an did not give orders, everyone could act on their own.
But if the City Master of Chang 'an gave orders, regardless of whether they were humans or demons, they had to obey.
The Kirins, who were slightly special, were the same in this regard.
Although the City Master of Chang 'an did not force the Kirins to do things that went against their nature, it did not guarantee that it would not happen in the future.
For Tai Ting and the Kui Ox Tribe, who had been the supreme demon of the Eastern Firmament for many years, this was undoubtedly unacceptable.
At present, there were no conflicts between Thunder Valley and Chang 'an.
But according to the current trend of Chang 'an's expansion, what would happen in the future?
When Chang 'an conquered the Great Song Dynasty and wiped out Shi Daoru, what would happen to Thunder Valley?
Tai Ting even had a hunch that all of this was not far away.
"Then, Daoist Zhao, how different are you from the City Master of Chang 'an?"
Various thoughts flashed through Tai Ting's mind, but his expression did not change. Instead, he calmly looked at the Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming.
Zhao Kuangming's tone did not change at all. "Of course I have the ambition to swallow the universe. This is not weaker than the City Master of Chang 'an."
Tai Ting, the Kui Ox Tribe's leader, also knew this.
There had not been much conflict between the Thunder Valley and the Great Song God Dynasty.
But that was only because Thunder Valley was very powerful and was not comparable to other demon clans. Even the Great Song Dynasty could not swallow it.
However, Tai Ting did not doubt that if Zhao Kuangming had the power and the opportunity, he would definitely try to take the entire Eastern Firmament under his rule.
And this was just the beginning.
After the Eastern Firmament, the Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming's path to conquer the entire Nine Heavens and the universe beyond.
Basically, it was the path of most experts who had reached the peak of martial arts.
Challenge and conquer.
"Although we are both asking a tiger for its skin, I still invite Tai Ting to join me instead of joining forces with Chang 'an." Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming looked calm.
Tai Ting looked at him and said nothing.
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming continued, "Because the enemies of Chang 'an are more than the enemies of the Great Song Dynasty, right?"
Tai Ting heard this and his eyes flashed.
Of course, the Great Song Dynasty was not without opponents.
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming had a feud with the Taiyi Sect's Dao Ancestor Hong Qing.
Previously, the Dean of the Doushi Academy, Saint Lu, had helped the Taiyi Sect and ruined the Song Emperor's plan. The relationship between the two sides was also very bad.
The Buddhist Sect was slightly better, but not by much.
Of course, the three sects were in constant conflict with Chang 'an.
"The Manjushri Sarira of the Buddhist Sect has fallen into Chang 'an. The City Lord of Chang' an refused to return it. Ananda Bodhisattva has already gone to the outer realm to seek help from other Buddhas," Song Emperor said.
Tai Ting nodded slightly.
The Buddhist Sect was connected. Although the Merciful Bodhisattva had not intervened, other Buddhist Sect experts might come continuously.
In terms of conflict, the Buddhist Sect's conflict with Chang 'an was much greater than the Great Song Dynasty's.
"Other than that, I have invited another guest," Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming said.
Kuiniu Tai Ting, who was in his human form, frowned when he heard this.
He stared at Song Emperor for a long time. Slowly, he said a few words, "Blood Unicorn Demon Lord?"
Another light gate appeared in the desolate land beside Emperor Song.
The light gate opened, and a man with a murderous aura but a gentle appearance walked out.
It was the number one demon of the Eastern Cang Heaven, Blood Unicorn Demon Lord.
"Daoist Zhao, you have invited me many times. You said that you and Clan Leader Tai Ting would come together. I can't refuse your invitation," Blood Unicorn Demon Lord said calmly.
Among the top magnates of the Eastern Cang Heaven, he was undoubtedly in the worst situation. He was surrounded by enemies and had to be vigilant at all times.
Blood Unicorn Demon Lord had made many preparations to meet Song Emperor today.
However, when he saw that Kuiniu Tai Ting was also against Chang 'an, Blood Unicorn Demon Lord had a vague idea.
The biggest public enemy of the Eastern Cang Heaven was no longer him. It was the mysterious City Lord of Chang 'an.
"We can understand why the two of you have misgivings."
Song Emperor said, "However, the Great Song Dynasty has already started a war with Chang 'an. There is no turning back. I am also prepared to lead the army.
As for whether or not we can stop the expansion of Chang 'an, the key lies with the two of you. "
Shi Daoist and Ru Tai Ting would not give up this opportunity.
Although there was a saying that a third party would benefit from the conflict between the snipe and the clam, the prerequisite was that the third party had the confidence to defeat both parties.
Just as Blood Unicorn Demon Lord had expected, the biggest public enemy of the Eastern Cang Heaven was Chang 'an.
"If Daoist Zhao is going to lead the army, I am willing to help." Blood Unicorn Demon Lord was the first to express his stance.
The Unicorn Clan had entered Chang 'an, but it did not completely stop him from thinking about it.
Kuiniu Tai Ting was silent.
Song Emperor and Blood Unicorn Demon Lord did not rush him. They waited patiently.
"I will expel the messenger of Chang 'an." Kuiniu Tai Ting said, "If the war goes badly for the Great Song Dynasty, I will personally take action."
Of course, he was wary of Song Emperor and Zhao Kuangming using the Kuiniu Clan as cannon fodder.
However, it was still not certain who would have the last laugh.
After all, he still had someone hiding in Thunder Valley.
In terms of trump cards, he had more than Song Emperor.
…
"Has the Kuiniu Clan made a decision?"
The woman, who seemed to be shrouded in an illusion, looked at the one-legged giant bull in front of her, "Can you allow me to meet Clan Leader Tai Ting and state my decision?"
The Kuiniu in front of her said in a deep voice, "Our clan leader has already made a decision. Daoist, you don't have to say anything more."
Twilight Mist took a deep breath, "Is the Kuiniu Clan going to join forces with the Great Song Dynasty, Buddhism, or Daoism?"
The Kuiniu said, "Our clan leader did not say anything about this. Everything will be decided by our clan leader. It is not something I can speculate."
He glanced at the Unicorn, Taotie, and the other demons beside Twilight Mist, "Our clan has always been secluded from the world. We do not compete with others, but we also do not fear others.
You are all guests from afar. We will not make things difficult for you. However, you must all leave Thunder Valley Universe Region today.
Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude. "
Twilight Mist looked at the other party for a moment and bowed, "Although it is regrettable, we can only take our leave. However, please tell Clan Leader Tai Ting to think twice."
The Kuiniu said coldly, "That is not something you should say."
Twilight Mist nodded and did not say anything. She immediately left Thunder Valley with the other Chang 'an demons.
The Kuiniu specially supervised their departure.
The few Kuiniu who stayed in place waited for Twilight Mist and the others to disappear. The leader instructed his companions, "Our clan leader has a message. Pass it to Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing. Take me to send the message."
