Zhou Shu handed the identification token left by Yao Buqi to Zhang San and said solemnly, “Bring this back to the camp and hand it to Great General Meng and the others.

“In addition, tell them to send someone to contact Yao Buqi. Let them decide the details themselves.”

Zhang San put away the item and bowed to Zhou Shu. Then he turned around and entered the forest, quickly disappearing.

The mission to assassinate Yao Aotian had been canceled. Now, Zhang San was relying on his outstanding concealment technique to become Zhou Shu’s special scout.

After making arrangements, Zhou Shu temporarily stopped thinking about it.

!!

Zhou Shu decided to wait for Meng Bai and the others to come up with a plan before deciding whether the Two Region Mountain in Yao Buqi’s territory was useful and how to use it.

He would let go if he could. If he handled everything himself, how would he have time to forge?

He felt that he didn’t have enough time to focus on forging the Lingxiao Treasure Palace. He didn’t have the energy to divert his attention.

But things were clearly not going according to Zhou Shu’s plans.

He wanted to focus on forging the Lingxiao Treasure Palace no matter what, but there were always some things that disturbed him.

For example, Emperor Wei Wu!

Previously, Demon King Hu Li had personally brought Emperor Wei Wu to Zhou Shu. His goal was to get Zhou Shu to help him forge an imitation imperial cauldron.

Zhou Shu had forged one, but he had used it in the Heavenly Hub Armory.

From the beginning, he had no intention of helping Emperor Wei Wu forge the imperial cauldron.

Therefore, when Emperor Wei Wu came looking for him again, Zhou Shu directly told him, “You came a little early. I haven’t finished forging the thing you want.”

Emperor Wei Wu was still covered in a black robe. Even his face was covered in a fog, and nothing could be seen clearly.

“I know.” Emperor Wei Wu’s voice was exceptionally ear-piercing, sounding like fingernails scratching on glass. “I’m not here to rush you. There’s something else.”

“Don’t say anything,” Zhou Shu directly interrupted Emperor Wei Wu. “I don’t know who you are. I can accept the matter last time with Demon King Hu Li as the guarantee. But now, I’m not used to dealing with someone who hides himself.”

Emperor Wei Wu’s face was hidden in the fog, and it was impossible to see any changes. But his voice didn’t fluctuate much.

“I don’t show my face for another reason, not because I look down on you,” Emperor Wei Wu said. “Who I am has nothing to do with what I want you to do. You will receive whatever benefits you deserve.”

“What benefits do you think I care about?” Zhou Shu sneered. “I, Yao Qing, am not an inexperienced person—”

Before Zhou Shu could finish speaking, he heard Emperor Wei Wu say, “Is the position of the Holy Son of the Demon Realm enough?”

“The position of the Holy Son of the Demon Realm?” Zhou Shu frowned slightly. He had just learned about the Holy Son of the Demon Realm from Yao Buqi not long ago.

Yao Buqi wanted to cooperate with him and help the Ten Nations Alliance. He wanted Zhou Shu to help him obtain the position of the Holy Son of the Demon Realm in return.

Now, Emperor Wei Wu actually mentioned the Holy Son of the Demon Realm.

Zhou Shu looked at Emperor Wei Wu and said coldly, “Who do you think you are to do that?”

“Because I have a great influence on Demon King Ao. Demon King Ao can decide who the Holy Son of the Demon Realm is!” Emperor Wei Wu said in a low voice.

“I know that because of your father, you have always wanted to prove yourself and become the Holy Son of the Demon Realm. Isn’t that the best proof? But with all due respect, although your aptitude is not bad, it’s almost impossible for you to defeat Yao Wudi. Without a special opportunity, you can’t become the Holy Son of the Demon Realm.

“And I am your opportunity.”

Zhou Shu sneered in his heart. Emperor Wei Wu seems to be quite proud of being a lackey of a demonic beast.

What was there to be proud of? Instead of being the emperor of one of the Ten Nations, he came to the Demon Realm to listen to the orders of a Demon King. He even looked so proud. He was really embarrassing.

“You?” Zhou Shu said coldly. “Why should I believe you?”

“You don’t have to believe me.” Emperor Wei Wu shook his head. “If you do me this favor, I will reward you. That’s all.”

“Unless you pay me first, I won’t help you,” Zhou Shu said. “Don’t scare me with Demon King Ao. Unless Demon King Ao comes to tell me personally, you can’t represent him.”

If not for the fact that he was afraid that killing Emperor Wei Wu now would affect his collection of forging materials, Zhou Shu wouldn’t have bothered to waste his breath on him. He would have killed him again long ago.

“Alright,” Emperor Wei Wu said without any hesitation. “Your current cultivation should have reached the threshold of the Great Demon realm. I’ll let you break through to the Great Demon realm first, and then we’ll talk!”

Emperor Wei Wu’s words puzzled Zhou Shu.

If he remembered correctly, the reason why Emperor Wei Wu had joined the Demon Realm was that his lifespan was almost up, but he was unable to break through to the first rank.

Could he help a first-rank demonic beast break through to the Great Demon realm?

If he was so capable, why would he rely on demonic beasts?

But it was hard to say. This might be an ability he had obtained after joining the demonic beasts.

Zhou Shu looked at Emperor Wei Wu and slowly said, “Do you think I need it? I can help Demon King Hu Li break through to the Demon King realm. Do you think I need your help to break through to the Great Demon realm?

“You’re not even a Great Demon yourself, right? How dare you spout nonsense like that? Do you really think I’m so easy to fool?

“If there’s nothing else, please leave. Don’t delay my work. As for the cauldron you want, come back in six months to get it. I’ll help you for Demon King Hu Li’s sake.”

Zhou Shu waved his hand impatiently.
