“Lure the snake out of its hole?” Hu Li said. “Do you think the snake demons will agree?”

The veins on Tiangou’s forehead bulged. He almost couldn’t suppress the urge to beat up Hu Li.

After panting heavily for a while, he continued, “What you have to do is cooperate! This is the unanimous decision of us eleven Demon Kings! If you’re unhappy, you can talk to Demon King Ao.

“I want to see if Demon King Ao will humor you like us!”

“If you have something to say, just say it. Why did you bring Demon King Ao out?” Hu Li said unhappily. After he became a Demon King, he had indeed gone to look for Demon King Ao, but he had been beaten up.

!!

He had to admit that even though they were both Demon Kings, the difference in strength was immense.

Hu Li knew very well that he was still far inferior to Demon King Ao.

But this is just in terms of cultivation. In some aspects, I am stronger than Demon King Ao. For example, my Demon King Palace! Hu Li thought proudly.

“Tell me. How do you want me to cooperate? As long as you don’t ruin my advancement ceremony, I can help you,” Hu Li said.

Tiangou and Liu’Er looked at each other. An invisible fluctuation enveloped the entire space, and they were careful not to let their voices escape.

Not long after, Tiangou and Liu’Er left Hu Li’s territory. Then Hu Li came to where Zhou Shu was in seclusion.

“Nephew Yao Qing, it’s me, Hu Li!” Hu Li shouted. “Open the door first. I have something to tell you.”

Creak!

The stone door opened, and Yao Aotian stuck his head out. “Please come in, Lord.”

Hu Li was not surprised that Yao Aotian was guarding the door. Like him, Yao Aotian had received a great favor from Yao Qing. So what if he was guarding the door for a few days?

After passing Yao Aotian, Hu Li entered the cave that Zhou Shu was temporarily using.

In the cave, forging materials were piled up everywhere, and there were humans and demonic beasts busy processing the forging materials.

It wasn’t until he walked deep into the cave that he saw Zhou Shu.

“Demon King Hu Li, why are you looking for me?” Zhou Shu sat cross-legged on the ground, his aura fluctuating.

Hu Li sat on the ground and slapped his thigh heavily. “shit. Nephew Yao Qing, I’ve let you down this time.”

Zhou Shu frowned slightly. What does this mean?

He raised his guard. What does Hu Li want to do?

“Those Demon Kings want to use you as bait to lure the snake out of its hole. They want to find the person who harmed Demon Queen Tushan,” Hu Li said. “I wanted to refuse, but this was decided by the other Demon Kings. I had no choice.”

He blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

Originally, he thought that after becoming a Demon King, he would be a top existence in the Demon Realm and wouldn’t need to listen to anyone’s orders.

But who would have thought that the other twelve Demon Kings would join forces to pressure him?!

It wasn’t appropriate to say that they were pressuring him. They had only asked Hu Li to cooperate and promised many benefits.

But Hu Li didn’t elaborate on this with Yao Qing.

“Lure the snake out of its hole?” Zhou Shu looked curiously at Hu Li.

“It’s like this. Isn’t there a Demon Queen Tushan in our Demon Realm? I wonder if you’ve heard of her. It’s said that Tushan is a very energetic woman…” Hu Li explained messily. “A while ago, she suddenly went missing. That’s right. She went missing and can’t be found no matter what.”

Hu Li lowered his voice and looked like he was gossiping. “Let me tell you. I suspect that Tiangou has a crush on Tushan. Otherwise, why is he so sure that Tushan was harmed? He must have been secretly paying attention to her…”

Zhou Shu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. But after he thought about it, it seemed possible.

He didn’t know who Tiangou was, but he was familiar with Tushan.

Tushan was extremely charming. It wasn’t strange at all that a few Demon Kings had a crush on her.

“Let’s continue. Tushan is missing, and the other eleven Demon Kings suspect that she was harmed by a human expert. But we have no idea where such a human expert is hiding in the Demon Realm, so everyone thought of an idea to find the human expert.”

Hu Li was incoherent, but Zhou Shu roughly understood.

The disappearance of Tushan had been discovered by the other eleven Demon Kings. Therefore, they suspected that there was a human expert hiding in the Demon Realm and wanted to find the human expert who had secretly harmed Tushan.

“You want me to be the bait to lure out the human expert who harmed Demon Queen Tushan?” Zhou Shu asked.

Zhou Shu knew very well why Tushan had disappeared.

Tushan had been suppressed and taken away by the Demon Subduing Pagoda, and Zhou Shu had personally forged the Demon Subduing Pagoda. But he had no idea where the Demon Subduing Pagoda had flown to now.

Zhou Shu was very interested in finding the person who had taken away the Demon Subduing Pagoda.

Although Zhou Shu suspected that this person was Ji Lutian, it was hard to say.

After all, his suspicion of Ji Lutian was unfounded.

Using a fake Yao Qing as bait to lure Yao Qing’s father out, who knew which Demon King came up with this idea?

“Nephew Yao Qing, don’t worry.” Hu Li gritted his teeth. “Although I can’t change the decisions of the other Demon Kings, I can guarantee you that you won’t be in any danger.

“In my territory, as long as I don’t die, no one can hurt you!”

“Demon King Hu Li, I’m not worried about that.” Zhou Shu laughed. “What do you want me to do? Why did you choose me?”

He wanted to hear how these Demon Kings were going to use Yao Qing to lure out the human expert who was most likely his father.

“You don’t have to do anything.” Hu Li shook his head. “Just pretend nothing happened. Help me prepare for the advancement ceremony, and leave the rest to those bastards.”

Hu Li gritted his teeth. The bastards he was talking about were naturally the Demon Kings like Tiangou and Liu’Er.

Hu Li was feeling aggrieved. It was his advancement ceremony, but he was forced by outsiders to do some unhappy things. Anyone would feel uncomfortable.

“That’s all?” Zhou Shu said.

“Or what?” Hu Li said. “We’re already giving them face by being willing to cooperate! If it was up to me, I would have chased them out!”

Zhou Shu smiled without saying anything. In the past, you had no right to speak to a Demon King.

But he was still very curious about how these Demon Kings planned to lure the snake out of its hole.

“Demon King Hu Li, do you really not know what the Demon Kings are planning to do? Are they even hiding it from you?” Zhou Shu said. “I am just a nobody. The Demon Kings can do whatever they want to me. But you are the thirteenth Demon King of the Demon Realm. They won’t treat you as a nobody, right?”

“They wouldn’t dare!”

After being provoked by Zhou Shu, Hi Li was furious. He couldn’t care less about the secret that Tiangou had told him.

“What right do they have to look down on me? A bunch of poor people who don’t even have a Demon King Palace!”

Hu Li said loudly. “Of course I know what they want to do! Those bastards even said that they didn’t want me to tell you, Nephew Yao Qing. They were afraid that you would expose yourself. To hell with them. Why should I listen to them? I just want to explain it to you!”
