Three-Legged Golden Crow, the Young Demon King

Although the Black Bear King was a confidant of the Demon King.

But after all, their intelligence is not high.

He could only relay messages for the Demon King, but he couldn't ignore the opinions of the Monkey King and the Green Snake King.

After all, there are quite a few strong individuals among these two Demon Race.

Even the Demon King had to take it seriously.

Left with no other choice.

The Black Bear King had no choice but to lead his demons on a swift journey to the Demon King's dwelling place.

This is a mountain range.

It was very spacious.

The buildings here are constructed from some megaliths.

Legend has it that the Demon King was a Three-Legged Golden Crow.

Therefore, not a blade of grass grows here.

The temperature here is arguably the highest in the entire Southernmost Region.

The surrounding air may also spontaneously combust.

The world was ablaze with fire.

Chen Ning arrived with the group of demons.

Originally, the Black Bear King did not trust him.

However, with the old fox demon's guarantee, and after learning that it was Chen Ning who killed the group of powerful members of the Demon Battle Saint Sect to change their minds.

So they agreed to let him go with them.

In fact, Chen Ning already felt that some things were a bit strange.

Whether it's the old fox demon, the Green Snake King and the Monkey King's attitude, or the Demon King...

Everything seemed a bit strange.

I just haven't fully figured it out yet.

We'll have to wait until we meet the Demon King to discuss this further.

Not long after.

We arrived at the Demon King's palace.

The Black Bear King reported, "Reporting to the Demon King, the Green Snake King and the Monkey King have some reservations about the decision you made, and have come to request an audience with the Demon King."

"Let them in."

A calm voice rang out.

The Black Bear King stood guard outside the palace with his massive body, gesturing for the demons to enter.

Then.

Chen Ning followed the demons into the palace.

Upon entering, one can immediately feel the immense and powerful fiery energy.

A very handsome young man sat on the bed.

His face was as fair as jade, and his eyes as bright as peach blossoms.

This was the most handsome man Chen Ning had ever seen in a long time.

"Greetings, Demon King!"

The old fox demon, the Green Snake King, and the Monkey King spoke in unison.

"Fox King, it's been a long time. How is that girl, A Yao, doing?"

The young demon king spoke with a smile, his manner very approachable.

"Thank you for your concern, Demon King. Everything is well."

"That's what the old fox spirit replied."

Who is this person?

The young demon king stared at Chen Ning's face, unable to suppress his jealousy.

It's unbelievable that someone's appearance is more attractive than mine.

"Your Majesty, this man is the benefactor of my Fox Demon Clan. Those powerful enemies of the Demon Battle Saint Sect were all wiped out by him."

The old fox demon told him the truth.

"I see. Alas, you've inadvertently caused me so much trouble... But since you saved the Fox King and the Fox Clan, if I weren't the King of the Nine Li Clan, I would truly have to thank you properly."

The young demon king exuded a very approachable aura throughout his life.

Just a few words spoken upon entering.

He truly appears to be a wise and virtuous demon king.

It was the Green Snake King who couldn't help but speak first, "Demon King, we have come here today to discuss your decision."

"Oh?"

The young demon king was taken aback and said, "Didn't I send the Bear King to inform them? It must be that he was too reckless, hurting the harmony, and didn't express my meaning clearly, which is why everyone misunderstood."

Upon hearing this...

The demons' eyes all flickered.

The young demon king continued, "To be honest, the sect leader of the Demon Battle Saint Sect, Feng Moxiu, has already approached me. He claims that the elders and hall masters killed by the Fox Demon Race were all meritorious and highly respected within the Demon Battle Saint Sect. If this matter cannot be properly resolved, the Demon Battle Saint Sect will certainly not let it go."

"Alas... I don't want to abandon the Fox Demon Race unless absolutely necessary."

A hint of helplessness flashed across the young demon king's face.

"Demon King! There are also those among the Human Race who are forbidden from causing trouble for my Nine Li Demon Race. It was clearly the Demon Battle Saint Sect that committed evil first, so what face does he have to come here for revenge?"

The Monkey King was so angry that he scratched his ears and cheeks.

"Monkey King, please calm your anger. While this is true, strength reigns supreme; this is the Principle of the world."

The young demon king sighed, his tone filled with helplessness.

"So annoying!"

The Monkey King understood the Demon King's predicament, but he still couldn't accept it. After a moment, he tentatively asked, "If the entire Nine Li Clan were to fight against the Demon Battle Saint Sect, would there truly be no chance of victory?"

The young demon king shook his head and said, "Sometimes I also want to be impulsive and fight them, but that would be like throwing an egg against a rock. Although the Demon Battle Saint Sect doesn't have Saint in charge, it has at least seven Heaven Martial Realm experts. My Nine Li Demon Race only has three Heaven Martial Realm experts at most. How can we possibly win..."

Among the three Heaven Martial Realm experts of the Nine Li Demon Race, one of them is the Monkey King.

This is also why the Monkey King advocates for war.

But upon calm reflection, it was indeed as the Demon King had said.

They were still no match for the Demon Battle Saint Sect.

The young demon king looked at the old fox demon, then suddenly knelt on one knee and said, "Fox King, I'm begging you on behalf of the entire Nine Li Demon Race. I implore you to consider the greater good and sacrifice yourself for righteousness!"

"Demon King, please rise!"

The old fox demon hurriedly came to help him up.

Then, the old fox demon, tears streaming down his face, said, "Demon King... none of my Fox Clan children are afraid of death, but only A Yao bears the great responsibility of continuing the Nine Li Demon Race. I am worried about her, so please protect her."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of that girl, A Yao."

The young demon king was also moved to tears.

This scene was incredibly moving.

Even the Green Snake King couldn't help but wipe away tears.

The Monkey King clenched his fists even tighter.

"Um, Your Majesty, may I interrupt this touching moment?"

Chen Ning suddenly spoke.

This surprised all the demons.

The young demon king looked at him and nodded.

Curious about what he's going to say?

"Your Majesty, there may be other solutions to this matter; we don't necessarily have to abandon the Fox Demon Clan."

Upon hearing this...

Both the Green Snake King and the Monkey King looked at Chen Ning with surprise.

I hope he can come up with a better solution.

Only the young demon king's eyes dimmed.

"Your Majesty, everything in this world revolves around self-interest. I am also the lord of a powerful force, and besides, those people were all killed by me. The grievances have their perpetrators, and the debts have their debtors."

Chen Ning spoke slowly.

"Besides, your business is my business. At worst, I'll go bankrupt and compensate the Demon Battle Saint Sect with more Spirit Artifact. Even Divine Fruit are negotiable... No matter how prestigious those elders are, they can't compare to the value of Divine Fruit, right? Or I could personally go to their door to apologize. What do you think of my idea, Demon King?"

Chen Ning smiled broadly, looking directly into the eyes of the young demon king.

After listening to Chen Ning's words...

Both the Green Snake King and the Monkey King were filled with awe.

I think the old fox demon's benefactor is truly a man of great courage and integrity.

The young demon king shook his head. "Alas... that may be true, but this is ultimately a matter for my Demon Race. You only intervened to save the Fox Demon Clan, so how can I involve you? My Demon Race is not the kind of people who forget kindness."

The young demon king spoke with absolute certainty.

And at this time...

Chen Ning's probing has yielded results.

He couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "So in Your Majesty's eyes, can the lives of the Fox Demon Clan be discarded so easily? Is it the Demon Battle Saint Sect that wants the Fox Demon Clan to perish, or do you want the Fox Demon Clan to perish?"
