Hu Li couldn’t take it. Zhou Shu only stimulated him a little, but he couldn’t take it anymore. He told Zhou Shu everything that Tiangou had asked him to keep secret.

“Demon King Hu Li, are you saying that those demon kings want to pretend to kill me because they suspect that my father is related to the human who secretly harmed Demon Queen Tushan?” Zhou Shu looked at Hu Li in surprise.

He had thought that these Demon Kings had some profound scheme.

But it was so simple and crude?

Zhou Shu didn’t expect that these demon kings also suspected Ji Lutian.

!!

But thinking about it, there were not many humans in the Demon Realm, and Ji Lutian was an outstanding existence. It was normal for demonic beasts to suspect him.

“Say, why do they feel that Demon Queen Tushan was secretly harmed by the human race? Can’t it be a demonic beast?” Zhou Shu asked. “There are countless battles between demonic beasts.”

“How should I know?” Hu Li said matter-of-factly. “I haven’t even seen Tushan. How would I know who she offended?”

“Demon King Hu Li, do you think those Demon Kings will really kill me?” Zhou Shu asked calmly.

He was getting ready for his escape. He never expected this to happen.

If the Demon Kings really wanted to kill Yao Qing, should he fight back?

Once he fought back, even a fool would know that he was fake. The real Yao Qing was only a first-rank martial artist. How could he escape from the Demon Kings?

“Impossible,” Hu Li said confidently. “Even if they want to, there’s still me. I’ll definitely protect you.”

“You?” Zhou Shu shook his head. It’s not that I look down on you, but you should still be at the bottom of the Demon Kings. Not to mention the other eleven Demon Kings, if any two of them come, you won’t have the time to protect me.

“Demon King Hu Li, can I not participate in your advancement ceremony?” Zhou Shu asked.

“Your plan is completely unreliable.

“If my father has nothing to do with the human who harmed Demon Queen Tushan, or if she wasn’t harmed by the human race at all, the villain wouldn’t care about my life at all.

“Even if you really kill me, the villain might not appear.

“In any case, even if my father is really involved in this matter, how can you be sure that he will appear to save my life?”

Hu Li didn’t know, but Zhou Shu knew very well that his identity as Yao Qing was fake. Moreover, Ji Lutian also knew this.

The real Yao Qing was beside Ji Lutian.

Under such circumstances, regardless of whether the person who took away the Demon Suppressing Pagoda was Ji Lutian, he would never appear.

The plans of these Demon Kings were destined to fail from the beginning.

“That’s what I said, but the other Demon Kings don’t agree,” Hu Li said. “They insist on doing this. There’s nothing I can do.

“Nephew Yao Qing, please cooperate with them. After this matter, you will benefit greatly.”

He continued, “Since those bastards want us to contribute, don’t even think about it if we don’t get something out of it.”

Hu Li was speaking, but Zhou Shu didn’t care about his words at all.

He now felt that if he allowed these Demon Kings to do as they pleased, the chances of him being exposed were extremely high.

Although Yao Qing had some status in the Demon Realm, he was nobody in the eyes of the Demon Kings.

The death of Yao Qing was no different from that of an ant.

Not to mention Yao Qing, even his mother, the number one Great Demon below the Demon Kings, was just a stronger ant in the eyes of the Demon Kings.

They wouldn’t take Yao Qing’s life seriously at all.

Hu Li made it sound so nice. What did he mean they just wanted to pretend to kill Yao Qing?

If things went wrong, they might really kill Zhou Shu!

In any case, the death of Yao Qing wasn’t important to the Demon Kings.

“Demon King Hu Li, have those demon kings left? Can I talk to them?” Zhou Shu asked.

“They’ve already left. Previously, they wanted to disturb your seclusion and said that they were prepared to support you. I rejected them directly. What a joke. With me around, do you still need their support?” Hu Li said casually.

Zhou Shu was speechless. You clearly asked Yao Jun to call me over just now.

Who said I wanted to reject them?!

Zhou Shu felt a little helpless. If he had known earlier, he would have met the two Demon Kings.

At the very least, he would give them a chance to support him. It had been such a good opportunity to gain some benefits.

Zhou Shu was silent for a moment before saying, “This is going to be troublesome. Demon King Hu Li, I feel that it’s very dangerous now…”

“Nephew Yao Qing, do you not trust me? I am also a Demon King now. How can I not protect you?” Hu Li said unhappily.

“It’s not that I don’t trust you, Demon King Hu Li. It’s fine if I don’t know. But do you think you can be at ease knowing that you’re being used as bait?” Zhou Shu said.

“Since the two Demon Kings have left, there’s no way to talk about it now. Looks like I can only increase my own protection.

“Demon King Hu Li, I have to make some preparations. If you’re restrained by an expert and can’t protect me in time, if I don’t prepare some means to protect myself, won’t I die?”
