Will the Demon Empress Give Zhou Huan a Gift?

Demon Empress?

Upon hearing this name, Zhou Huan's expression immediately turned serious, and he activated his full mental perception.

According to Zhou Huan's speculation, the Demon Empress at this point in time must not have broken through to level 100 and become a god-level powerhouse. He might even be weaker than the Half-God level Di Tian. Otherwise, he wouldn't need to hide and not dare to come out, but just stay behind the Holy Spirit Cult.

However, the Demon Empress is the Demon Empress after all, and Zhou Huan is not confident that he can defeat her, so he still needs to take her seriously.

Of course, with Zhang Lexuan added to the mix, even if he can't defeat the Demon Empress, the Demon Empress probably can't do anything to him either.

Just as Zhou Huan was preparing to go all out and confront the Demon Empress head-on, an almost transparent phantom emerged from between the eyebrows of the Holy Spirit Cult's Grand Elder.

The illusory figure was clearly a woman, but her face was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see her true appearance.

The moment the mysterious phantom appeared, the Grand Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult's face lit up with joy, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty the Demon Empress Emperor, I..."

However, before he could finish speaking, the phantom suddenly revealed a huge mouth and swallowed the Grand Elder, who was standing right next to it, whole.

The poor Holy Spirit Cult elder, with a look of terror and even a bit of bewilderment, was devoured by the helpers he had summoned without hesitation.

If the Grand Elder were alive, he would surely be furious and demand of the Demon Empress, "You son of a bitch, you're so inconsiderate! We were allies, allies! Why did you eat me without saying a word? Just because you're the Demon Empress doesn't mean you can do whatever you want!!"

Not to mention the Grand Elder who was caught off guard by the betrayal, even Zhou Huan on the other side was stunned for three seconds.

What's going on now?

He was backfired by his own summoned beast?

Is this faceless phantom the Demon Empress?

Why did she eat the Holy Spirit Cult's Grand Elder?

Aren't these two in cahoots?

For a moment, Zhou Huan's mind was filled with questions, but he said nothing, only staring intently at the illusory figure in front of him.

Regardless of whether she is the Demon Empress or not, in this state she poses no threat to Zhou Huan.

After the phantom devoured the Holy Spirit Cult's Grand Elder, it looked at Zhou Huan again. Well, actually, it just faced Zhou Huan directly, since it couldn't see her facial features.

Then, the illusory figure spoke in a completely emotionless voice, "So you're here."

Zhou Huan:???

Don't talk nonsense! Do I even know you?

Your sudden remark, which sounds like an old flame meeting again, could easily lead to misunderstandings.

I have a girlfriend.

Just as Zhou Huan was ranting in his head, the illusory figure spoke again, "Are you trying to protect the Demon Soul Great White Shark Clan?"

Zhou Huan remained silent, because he had absolutely no idea what the faceless aunt meant.

However, the illusory figure didn't care whether Zhou Huan answered her or not, and continued talking to herself, "Since you want to protect Demon Shark Island, then consider it a gift from me to you."

At this point, Zhou Huan finally couldn't hold back any longer. "This... Auntie, can you please stop being so presumptuous, talking to yourself, and having such a high opinion of yourself? Putting everything else aside, at least tell me who you are! Besides, I've never accepted anything without a reason. You're giving me a 'gift' on our first meeting, and I'm quite scared. You wouldn't happen to have feelings for me because I'm so charming and capable, would you? Let me tell you, absolutely not!"

The previously calm and composed phantom figure's expression flickered with confusion after hearing Zhou Huan's witty remarks, but it quickly regained its composure. It continued, "I am the current Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, you can also call me the Demon Empress. I mean no harm, I simply wish to form an alliance with you."

Holy crap!

Ally with me?

What kind of alliance is this?!

Just a few seconds ago I was watching you devour your ally!

Moreover, why would I, a member of Shrek's Sea God Pavilion member, Captain Zhou of the Long Voyage Squad, Five-Good Youth from Peach Spring Village, ally with a behind-the-scenes boss of the Holy Spirit Cult?

Is this appropriate?

However, considering that the Demon Empress might actually wipe out the Demon Soul Great White Shark Clan in the future, leaving only Bai Paopao as a lonely little bubble, Zhou Huan thought that even though she didn't know why the Demon Empress had suddenly pulled this stunt, it would be a good thing if she really let Demon Shark Island go.

After all, he can't protect Demon Shark Island forever.

Moreover, his relationship with Demon Shark Island was not enough for him to search everywhere for the Demon Empress's true form and do everything in his power to destroy her and eliminate any future troubles.

Therefore, Zhou Huan replied, "Um... Demon Empress, I'm sorry, let's forget about the alliance. I don't have time for any alliances; I need to continue my voyage to find a new life. However, Demon Shark Island does have some connection to me, and I'd be happy if we could all get along peacefully."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Empress remained silent for a moment before saying, "One day, you will come to me for an alliance."

Before Zhou Huan could reply, the Demon Empress's phantom vanished.

It wasn't that Zhou Huan's domain was weak and unable to trap the Demon Empress's phantom; rather, the Demon Empress's phantom didn't escape, but rather completely transformed into energy and vanished into the world.

At that moment, Zhou Huan's first thought was, could it be that this old Demon Empress was too traumatized by her husband's death, and that her unrestrained consumption of large numbers of Sea Soul Beast to enhance her strength had caused her mental problems?

My second thought is, if the Demon Empress's mind is sound, then why would she recognize me? Could my time travel be related to the Demon Empress?

But if the Demon Empress were truly that powerful, he would have already taken his greatsword to the Divine Realm to kill Tang San and avenge his husband. Why would he need to secretly cause trouble on Douluo Star?

For a moment, Zhou Huan was overwhelmed with thoughts, her mind a jumbled mess, unable to grasp the main point at all.

Just then, a familiar figure came to Zhou Huan's side, tugged at his hand, and asked softly, "What's wrong? You look so worried. Who was that mysterious woman just now?"

The person who arrived was Zhang Lexuan.

Previously, since Zhou Huan and the mysterious woman were both within Zhou Huan's domain, Zhang Lexuan naturally couldn't do anything to spy on them. Therefore, she only saw the Demon Empress's phantom image and didn't hear their conversation.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan shook his head slightly and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly don't understand some things."

After a pause, Zhou Huan added, "Oh, right, that was the Demon Empress's phantom, which is now the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, but her true form is definitely not around here."

Zhang Lexuan naturally didn't know about the Demon Empress, but there were records of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King from ten thousand years ago in the Sea God Pavilion's records. She didn't expect that another Deep Sea Demonic Whale King would appear ten thousand years later.

However, seeing that Zhou Huan didn't intend to say anything more, Zhang Lexuan stopped asking and turned to look at the battlefield on the sea, saying, "It's over."

The war that had come so suddenly was indeed over.

Zhou Huan's Ice Meteor directly shattered the morale of the 50,000-strong Sea Soul Beast Alliance. Furthermore, they were inherently weaker than the Demon Soul Great White Shark Clan, so they were quickly defeated.

Meanwhile, Xiao Bai and the four elders of Demon Shark Island finally defeated the group of Evil Spirit Orca.

Of course, it was impossible to kill them all. After most of them were killed, especially the Holy Spirit Cult's Grand Elder, the remaining Evil Spirit Orca scattered and fled.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Bai led the four elders to Zhou Huan, his expression somewhat complicated, but his tone very sincere, and said, "This time, thank you very much for Captain Zhou's help."

Zhou Huan smiled calmly and replied, "It was nothing. Demon Shark Island suffered considerable losses, so Clan Chief Bai should go and handle clan affairs. You don't need to worry about me."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai didn't ask any further questions, simply agreed, and then left with the four elders.

Previously, Xiao Bai had also seen the mysterious woman in Zhou Huan's domain, but she couldn't possibly recognize that it was the Demon Empress.

Zhou Huan clearly didn't intend to tell her, so Xiao Bai wisely refrained from asking.

After Xiao Bai left, Zhou Huan took Zhang Lexuan's hand and said, "Let's go downstairs too. It's tiring enough to have to fight so late at night."

Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly. "Yes, go back. Your hand is injured and needs to be treated."
