The Plan Begins, an Audience with the Devil King
In the Eternal Night City.
Inside a spacious, dark Devil Race building.
The Shadow Devil Venerable was enjoying the services of several Devil Race women.
They sipped their wine with great contentment.
As the ruler of the Eternal Night City.
He possesses supreme power.
In the Eternal Night City, he is the law, he is the rule.
This is solely because of his identity as one of the ten Demon Lords under the Demon Emperor.
Each demon lord governs a city.
This formed the map of the Devil Race's power.
You Province was originally one of the regions where Human Race lived.
However, as the Devil Race's power continues to grow, the Human Race's living space becomes smaller and smaller.
Gradually.
On the land of You Province, only a few small Human Race towns are struggling to survive.
However, You Province is a vast and resource-rich region.
There are also many Human Race scattered in various places.
Over the years.
The Devil Race have been recuperating and rebuilding.
They longed for the day when they could once again conquer You Province and take over the other eight provinces.
In a battle a thousand years ago, the First-Generation Sect Master the Dragon-Seeking Sect in Spirit Province possessed extraordinary talent, causing the Devil Race to be unable to raise their heads for a thousand years.
We can only endure it.
They retreated to the land of You Province.
But their wolfish ambitions have not diminished in the slightest.
Instead, they are accumulating strength.
The Demon Emperor went into seclusion in order to break through to that highest realm.
If they can actually succeed in making the breakthrough.
Then great things can be expected.
The Devil Race will inevitably venture out of You Province once again.
First, we'll flatten Spirit Province.
At that time.
These ten Demon Lords were the strongest vanguard under the Demon Emperor.
The Shadow Devil Venerable had also been looking forward to that day.
As for the top Human Race experts and super powers...
There's no need to worry about it.
As long as the Devil Race don't invade Central Province.
No superpower will get involved in this karma.
Those superpowers.
They're all just profit-driven people.
"My lord, you're so naughty..."
A Devil Race woman was peeling a wild fruit when she felt the Shadow Devil Venerable's restless hand and couldn't help but giggle.
The other Devil Race women wisely prepared to retreat.
Result.
The Shadow Devil Venerable grabbed one of the Devil Race women, tearing her robes to shreds, and laughed loudly, "Don't go! I'm going to take on ten of them!"
Then.
A great battle has begun.
A few minutes later.
The Shadow Devil Venerable, panting, arrived at a table, intending to pour himself a drink.
But a strange aura instantly put him on guard.
"Who are you?"
The Shadow Devil Venerable, shirtless, looked at the figure sitting opposite him.
Cold sweat broke out.
Someone had appeared silently around him.
He was completely unaware.
They even ended up sitting at the same table.
"I saw you were busy, so I didn't want to bother you."
Chen Ning spoke.
Upon hearing the unfamiliar voice, the Shadow Devil Venerable carefully searched his memories.
I have definitely never seen this person before.
What brings you here to see me?
The Shadow Devil Venerable Lord asked.
The fact that they could arrive silently suggests that they are not a simple person.
"Demon Lord, do not be nervous. I have come here to ask for your help."
Chen Ning got straight to the point.
A hint of suspicion flashed in the Shadow Devil Venerable's eyes. "Speak," he said.
"May I ask the Demon Lord to escort me to an audience with the Dark Devil King, one of the two Demon Kings of You Province?"
"You want to see the Demon King?"
The Shadow Devil Venerable snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid I can't help you with that. The identity of a Demon King isn't something you can just see whenever you want. If you leave now, I won't pursue the matter of your trespassing. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Unless absolutely necessary, the Shadow Devil Venerable is unwilling to take action.
We haven't figured out their tactics yet.
Do not act rashly.
Chen Ning smiled and said, "You have to help me with this."
"Oh?"
The Shadow Devil Venerable said unhappily, "I have roamed You Province for so many years, and no one has ever dared to threaten me?"
I'm not threatening you, I'm just stating the facts.
Chen Ning finished speaking.
The Shadow Devil Venerable's expression suddenly changed drastically.
He was shocked to find that the demonic energy within his body seemed to be locked up.
It was naturally the power of the Heaven-Sealing Instruction used by Chen Ning.
The Shadow Devil Venerable was only at the level of Six-Star Martial Venerable.
It would be very easy to seal his power.
Who exactly are you?
The Shadow Devil Venerable's eyes twitched as he stared intently at Chen Ning's figure.
"Either go and see the Dark Devil King now, or die. The Demon Lord, choose for yourself."
Chen Ning spoke calmly as before.
But this time...
The Shadow Devil Venerable had no choice but to compromise.
He had initially thought the opponent was merely strong, but he hadn't expected them to completely overwhelm him.
In this way.
He had no say in the matter and couldn't even negotiate.
He was left with only one choice.
"I promise you."
The Shadow Devil Venerable ultimately chose to compromise.
Compared to others.
Survival is the most important thing.
"Readily,"
Chen Ning smiled approvingly.
"But it is the dead of night. How can I disturb the Demon King? I should wait until tomorrow morning to request an audience."
The Shadow Devil Venerable's eyes darted around as he spoke.
"It's alright, I believe the Demon Lord has a way. If you can't, then I'll find someone else."
Chen Ning's tone was flat.
A murderous glint flashed in his eyes.
"Very well, I can indeed see the Demon King directly. I will take you there."
The Shadow Devil Venerable's last shred of luck vanished.
The Demon King's Palace.
Inside the palace.
The Dark Devil King was awakened and led to a side hall.
Now.
The Shadow Devil Venerable was already waiting here.
Chen Ning and Xiao Mei donned Shadow Cloak and entered the palace together.
A cloak can conceal one's form.
Extremely mysterious.
When two people are huddled together in a cloak, some skin-to-skin contact is inevitable.
However, the two became more familiar with each other after a few tries.
They didn't take it seriously.
He was standing in the side hall at that moment.
Both of them then revealed themselves.
The Shadow Devil King felt a surge of turmoil within him.
Xiao Mei's identity was no secret among these high-ranking Devil Race.
The Shadow Devil Venerable also knew about her betrayal of the Demon Devil Race and the killing of the Demon Prince.
That's why he allowed the Seven Devil Clans to bully the Succubus Village without any oversight.
Unexpected.
She actually came back.
They also brought back a handsome young Human Race.
But what the Shadow Devil Venerable didn't expect was that they actually dared to come and see the Demon King?
Isn't that just courting death?
The Demon King is a powerful expert at the Heavenly Martial Realm.
I really can't understand why they dared to come.
Could it be that they intend to assassinate the Demon King?
The Shadow Devil Venerable genuinely hoped that the two had come to assassinate the Demon King, so that he could be saved once the Demon King suppressed them.
A not-so-tall figure stepped into the side hall.
All eyes turned to that direction.
The Dark Devil King came alone.
The Shadow Devil Venerable had requested an audience with him under the pretext of a confidential matter.
"Oh... isn't this the traitor of my tribe?"
The Dark Devil King wasn't too surprised to see Chen Ning and the other person.
He first glanced at Xiao Mei.
Then he continued walking step by step into the hall.
When his gaze fell upon Chen Ning, he asked with a hint of doubt, "And who is this...?"
Chen Ning calmly replied, "Chen Ning, the ninth generation leader of the Dragon-Seeking Sect. It's a pleasure to meet you, Dark Devil King."
