705 Blackmailing Half the Demon Realm, Double Spy Yao Buqi (2)
Several days later, in a place in the Demon Realm, a peak Great Demon was full of anger, and his aura soared into the sky. With a loud bang, a small mountain collapsed under his anger.
“Bastard!” the peak Great Demon shouted angrily. “Who dares to kidnap our Yao Ren?!”
Yao Buqi was forced back by the aura of the peak Great Demon. He said loudly, “Lord Yao Bei, it’s Shi Changsheng! The Shi Changsheng who defeated Demon King Ao!”
Yao Buqi said, “In the Demon Realm Ancestral Court, he forced back Demon King Ao and the other Demon Kings alone. Brother Yao Ren and I were no match for him and fell into his hands.
“Shi Changsheng threatened me with the lives of Yao Ren and the others and told me to come out and report to the various races.
“He said to get the various races to send people who can make decisions to the Demon Realm Ancestral Court to negotiate with him about the ransom…”
“Shi Changsheng?” The aura of the peak Great Demon Yao Bei froze, and the expression on his face was a little unnatural.
He had just wanted to clamor and cut the bastard who had kidnapped his junior, Yao Ren, into pieces. But when he heard Shi Changsheng’s name…
In the past, the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm might not have known who Shi Changsheng was. But now, almost every Great Demon knew who Shi Changsheng was.
Under the impetus of some people, Shi Changsheng had once pretended to be Yao Qing and helped Hu Li become a Demon King. It was also Shi Changsheng who had transformed into Liu’Er, which almost caused Demon King Ao and Tiangou to fall out.
There were also rumors that the disappearance of Liu’Er and Tushan was related to Shi Changsheng.
Now, it was even rumored that Demon King Ao had been captured alive by Shi Changsheng and almost lost his life.
How could a Great Demon like him deal with such an expert?
“Yao Buqi, other than Yao Ren and you, who else did Shi Changsheng capture?” Yao Bei asked in a deep voice.
“Other than Brother Yao Ren and me, there’s also Yao Qing…” Yao Buqi named them one by one. With each name, Yao Bei’s eyelids twitched.
In the end, he gasped.
“Yao Buqi, other than Demon King Ao and the other Demon Kings, all of you who went to the Demon Realm Ancestral Court to participate in the selection have fallen into Shi Changsheng’s hands?” Yao Bei said in disbelief. “Demon King Ao and the others watched this happen?”
He felt that this matter was simply ridiculous!
In the many years of the history of the Demon Realm, there had never been an accident in the selection of the Holy Son.
Now, not only had there been an accident this time, but all the candidates had also been kidnapped. Such a ridiculous thing had actually happened!
“Lord Yao Bei, didn’t I just say that Demon King Ao and the other Demon Kings were forced back by Shi Changsheng?” Yao Buqi said seriously. He didn’t say anything about Pixiu.
Pixiu’s origins were mysterious. Other than Demon King Ao, there was probably no other demonic beast in the Demon Realm who knew about him. Even if Yao Buqi said it, Yao Bei might not know.
Yao Bei gasped. Where did Shi Changsheng come from? Even the top ten Demon Kings were forced out of the Demon Realm Ancestral Court by him. Why have I never heard of this expert before?
“Yao Buqi, where does Shi Changsheng come from?” Yao Bei asked solemnly.
“Lord Yao Bei, I’m just a messenger. Do you think I know that much?” Yao Buqi smiled bitterly. He hesitated again and again, but in the end, he didn’t dare to tell them that he wanted them to support him as the Holy Son of the Demon Realm.
If he really spoke up about this matter, they would definitely treat him as Shi Changsheng’s accomplice. Then, their reaction might not be good.
Zhou Shu was not a demonic beast after all. He couldn’t predict how the demonic beast would react.
If Yao Buqi dared to make the request, Yao Bei might kill him on the spot.
In that case, even if someone avenged him later, what was the point?
Yao Bei’s expression was extremely gloomy. He looked at Yao Buqi and asked in a deep voice, “How many races have you informed before coming to find me?”
“Other than you, Lord Yao Bei, I’ve already informed four races. Including you, there are a total of five races,” Yao Buqi said.
“Very good. I’ll go with you to inform the rest,” Yao Bei said coldly. “Doesn’t Shi Changsheng want a ransom? He even wants to negotiate with our races. Then, I’ll do as he wishes!
“I want to see how he can face the hundreds of races of the Demon Realm alone!”
Yao Bei’s aura soared. Although he was only a Great Demon, his cultivation was deep. Even ordinary Demon Kings didn’t dare to underestimate him.
For the candidates who had been kidnapped by Zhou Shu, there would basically be such a peak Great Demon in their race. Due to their aptitude, they might never be able to break through to the Demon King realm.
But they had been immersed in the Great Demon realm for many years, and their cultivation had long reached a bottleneck. In the Great Demon realm, they were almost invincible.
If a hundred such Great Demons gathered, even Demon Kings would have to retreat.
Yao Buqi sighed in his heart. He knew this would happen.
What Zhou Shu did would definitely anger the various races of the Demon Realm.
Even if the various races of the Demon Realm didn’t mobilize all their elite soldiers, they would still mobilize their experts.
No matter how high Zhou Shu’s cultivation was, would he be able to defeat dozens of peak Great Demons?
But this had nothing to do with him. In any case, he was just a messenger. No matter which side won, he wouldn’t suffer.
This was in line with his principle of being a demon.
Why fight and kill when you can solve problems with your brain?
He was still thinking about how to use this opportunity to become the true Holy Son of the Demon Realm!
It was clearly impossible to threaten the various races of the Demon Realm like Zhou Shu had said, but he could change the method.
If he could save the candidates for the Holy Son of the Demon Realm from Zhou Shu, he would be half their savior. Would they have the cheek to compete with him then?
But he would have to make his contributions real. It was best to let them know how great his contributions were!
At the same time, he couldn’t offend Zhou Shu.
“Lord Yao Bei, Shi Changsheng and I are irreconcilable enemies. If you want to deal with him, please count me in. Although my cultivation isn’t high, I will definitely not hesitate to risk my life!” Yao Buqi said impassionedly. “If I can help Brother Yao Ren and the others in any capacity, I will definitely not hesitate at all!”
Yao Bei was touched. “Brother Yao Li has a good son. Yao Buqi, you’re a good fellow!”
Yao Bei patted Yao Buqi’s shoulder.
Yao Li was Yao Buqi’s father and also a peak Great Demon in the Demon Realm.
“Lord Yao Bei, you flatter me. It’s my duty,” Yao Buqi said seriously. “After informing all the lords, I will return to the Demon Realm Ancestral Court and fight with Brother Yao Ren and the others!
“As long as I don’t die, I will definitely not let Shi Changsheng hurt Brother Yao Ren and the rest!
“I’m no match for him, but I’ll let him know that all the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm are unafraid of death!”
“Don’t worry, Nephew. You’ll be fine,” Yao Bei said. “I guarantee that Shi Changsheng can’t hurt any of you!
“He’s underestimating us by doing this! If he wants a ransom, hmph, sure. We’ll give him a ransom. But I’m afraid he’ll lose his life for it. It’s not that easy to take our things!”
Yao Buqi’s eyes gleamed. “Lord Yao Bei, what are your plans? Do you need my cooperation?”
This was a heaven-sent opportunity to please Zhou Shu. He, Yao Buqi, wouldn’t offend either side. He had to get along with both sides well. Otherwise, he would be letting down the opportunity the heavens had given him!
