Chapter 1764 I Don't Want These Steps
The Dragon King's demeanor seemed to show little respect to both the Demon King Lusu and the ancestor of Qingqiu.
This left the several gods present somewhat bewildered.
Xiang Dehong looked at Kuafu Chong, who in turn looked at Leize Ancestor, who was bound by red ropes behind Qingqiu Ancestor, and Xuan Lie.
They all had the same question in their eyes: Did Chen Wanli have a past relationship with the Dragon King?
They immediately saw the blank look in each other's eyes, clearly they had never heard of it before, and it seemed that Chen Wanli had no connection with the Dragon Palace whatsoever.
The last remaining fox ancestor of Qingqiu, his eyes flashing with a scarlet demonic aura, licked his lips:
"How dare I let the Dragon King take the stage? If the Dragon King wants to watch the show, then I should be the one to perform!"
The Dragon King squinted and said, "Listen to this, what a great deal of resentment!"
"I dare not! My fox clan was only following the orders of the Demon Emperor to go to the Beast Clan to convey the commands of the two clan kings."
Since such a trouble has occurred, even the Demon Emperor and the Demon King must avenge our fox clan!
Upon hearing this, Long Jihai looked at him with surprise: "Are they all really dead?"
Although there were rumors before I came, the claim that Chen Wanli had almost severed the lineage of the Qingqiu Fox Clan was an exaggeration, unless I saw it with my own eyes.
The Qingqiu Fox Ancestor raised its head and let out a heart-wrenching roar that reverberated for dozens of miles around, causing all the nearby creatures to tremble and feel heavy-hearted.
The answer is self-evident.
Demon King Lu Su spoke calmly, "The Demon Emperor's intention is the same as mine: the human race should be eliminated!"
Long Jihai felt a pang of regret. Although the transaction with Chen Wanli in the Moon Luo Cave was supposed to be a deal, he thought the human had a lot of character and actually hoped that he would survive.
I had originally thought that if the opportunity arose, I might be able to plead with my father for protection.
Now it seems absolutely impossible. If the Dragon Palace were to offer protection, the demon and monster races might think that the Dragon Palace also wanted to unite with the human race.
If that's the case, Father will never get involved in this mess.
Leaning on his cane, the Qingqiu Fox Ancestor stared intently at the figure atop Wangmang City, his eyes already stained with blood.
Just then, the clear, melodious cry of a blue phoenix could be heard from the distant void.
A refined man in a wide robe stood on the back of the blue phoenix, with Lei Jiang and Xuan San standing behind him.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived outside Wangmang City.
Instead of rushing into the city, he looked out from afar and let out a hearty laugh: "It's quite lively today!"
Upon seeing this refined man, Demon King Lu Su raised an eyebrow slightly: "True Lord Ye, if you dare to wade into these muddy waters, I will overturn the Endless City!"
The refined and elegant man was none other than Ye Zhenjun.
He held a precious sword in his arms, his eyebrows and eyes were like stars. Although he only had the aura of a half-saint, he remained calm and composed in the face of beings at the level of Demon King Lusu and Dragon King.
With her long arms outstretched, her wide sleeves billowed like a gust of wind, exuding an ethereal aura.
He simply chuckled and said, "What makes you say that, Demon King? I, like the Dragon King, am here at your invitation to drink a cup of wedding wine!"
With that, he bowed to the Dragon King from afar: "Since the Dragon King has arrived at the city gate, I dare not enter first. Please, Dragon King!"
Lu Su's expression grew increasingly cold. Ye Zhenjun deserved to die too!
However, based on what it now knows, this guy, like the Protoss, is best left unkilled.
"Dragon King...you..." Lu Su was about to speak when a vast power descended upon it, freezing it in place.
"Lu Su, don't be in such a hurry. I'll go into the city first, drink that cup of wedding wine, and then you can put on this show!"
The Dragon King laughed heartily, casually took out a bell, covered Lu Su's head with it, and glanced at the Fox Ancestor of Qingqiu.
"Ugh~ Ugh!"
The Fox Ancestor of Qingqiu wished he could fight the Dragon King right now, but dared not show his emotions.
Lu Su was also a little unsure which side the Dragon King belonged to.
If there was any malice involved, the mere Demon-Suppressing Bell could only trap it for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, merely delaying the situation.
Could it be that they're helping humans escape?
If the gods escape, they will fall back under the control of the demons.
All of Chen Wanli's previous efforts have been in vain!
……
The Dragon King's chariot flew towards the walls of Wangmang City.
Kuafu Chonghe and Xiang Dehong followed closely behind.
Complex emotions and panic flashed in everyone's eyes in the city.
It can be said that the Dragon King's move intimidated the entire city of Wangmang.
Almost all the gods present bowed and respectfully said, "Greetings, Dragon King!"
Ye Zhenjun's Azure Phoenix also moved aside to the side of the city wall.
Let the Dragon King's chariot hang at the main gate of the city wall.
However, the city's protective formation still remained unactivated.
Xiang Qing nervously grasped her sister Xiang Jing's hand, her voice trembling slightly:
"Brother Chen, will... will you let the Dragon King in?"
Xiang Jing shook his head: "Stop shaking! Look at your Brother Chen, how calm he is!"
She doesn't know either.
Whether the Dragon King is friend or foe is still unknown, so how can we let him in so easily?
But she didn't dare to say it.
"..."
Hearing the sisters' voices, Chen Wanli calmly looked at the Dragon King.
Nervous? Why be nervous?
With his combat strength, he has no need to fear any Nascent Soul Realm warriors in Wangmang City.
To achieve one's goals within the Demon Cave, the Dragon King, the Phoenix King, and the Demon Emperor are all formidable obstacles that cannot be bypassed.
Rather than fawning over others, Chen Wanli preferred to let them see his value before deciding whether they were friend or foe!
An old ancestor of the Great Xia Dynasty once said, "First, figure out who our enemies are!"
"Dragon King, let me introduce you, this is..."
Ye Zhenjun smiled and pointed to Chen Wanli on the city wall.
Before he could finish speaking, the Dragon King waved his hand and pushed him aside: "No need for introductions, I'm not blind!"
It exchanged a glance with Chen Wanli across the distance.
"Is this your way of welcoming guests?" the Dragon King asked meaningfully.
The divine race members within the city were all experiencing complex emotions at this moment.
Will Chen Wanli activate the city-protecting formation?
The next second, Chen Wanli raised his hand, and the city-protecting formation vanished instantly: "Please!"
The Dragon King stepped down from the chariot and took a step, heading straight towards Chen Wanli.
Everyone became nervous.
Even Ye Zhenjun's eyelids suddenly lifted, shooting out two beams of light, and his fingers holding the sword tightened slightly.
If the Dragon King makes a move, Chen Wanli will have no chance of winning.
"I heard that you saved my son's life in the Moon Cave?"
Upon hearing the Dragon King's words, everyone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Wanli has a lot of influence, doesn't he?
Doesn't this amount to receiving a favor from the Dragon King?
Then Demon King Lusu will definitely not succeed today!
No wonder Chen Wanli has been so calm and fearless! It turns out he had already paved the way with the Dragon Clan long ago.
I used to be so tight-lipped, I never let anything slip.
If they had known this would happen, why were they so nervous?
However, Chen Wanli smiled faintly and said, "No. It was just a transaction!"
"???"
"???"
The Dragon King's expression turned strange, his eyes seeming to hold both admiration and displeasure:
"How dare you show me such disrespect!"
It extended an olive branch, but was rejected?
What a load of bullshit.
After this kid entered the Demon Cave, he subdued the entire God Race in just over a year.
This kind of person is no fool.
That person is absolutely cunning and scheming.
Therefore, this is an active and intentional refusal!
The Dragon King immediately understood why he refused.
To accept an olive branch is to accept its respect.
And Chen Wanli, is he unwilling? What right does he have to be unwilling? His life is hanging by a thread!
"A deal, is it? Then I must tell you. Although the Dragon Palace and the God Clan share a bond of kinship, they have exceptional expectations for my son."
But since you put it that way, I only have one thing to say: since it's a transaction, you'll have to resolve it yourself!
Having said that, it stared intently at Chen Wanli.
But they found that Chen Wanli's expression did not change at all.
After these few sentences of conversation, all the gods had extremely complicated expressions.
The Dragon King offered Chen Wanli a way out to save his life, but Chen Wanli refused.
Did Chen Wanli really think he could defeat Lu Su?
Even Ye Zhenjun gave Chen Wanli a deep look.
In fact, if the Dragon King were willing to vouch for them, Wang Mangcheng, and even Chen Wanli, would be safe and sound today!
Demon King Lusu couldn't swallow this insult, so he could only accept it for the time being and find another opportunity in the future.
After all, what Chen Wanli lacked most was time.
The Dragon King's displeasure slowly faded, his mockery vanished, leaving only calm: "I'll ask you one more time, is it a transaction?"
In an instant, he was no longer the unruly dragon king, but a proper dragon king and a top expert in the Demon Cave.
A faint smile flashed in Chen Wanli's eyes: "It's a deal!"
He could understand the metaphors in the Dragon King's words.
That is, whether or not one is willing to become a subordinate of the Dragon Palace and serve it wholeheartedly!
We must first become equals before discussing anything else.
If you're on equal footing, then you have to demonstrate the ability to be on equal footing!
Chen Wanli's answer was extremely concise.
I don't want these steps!
