Chapter 1243: Lan Tiansheng's ambition, a deal?
"Lan Tiansheng, I didn't expect you to dare come back?" the Black Mountain Tiger King Hei Hu teased, his tiger aura mighty, giving people a feeling of awe and reluctance to approach.
In the depths of his eyes lay an undisguisable majesty, the majesty of the king of all beasts, unrelated to cultivation, only related to his strength.
That innate regal majesty, the quality of a king who fears nothing when facing anyone, Hei Hu at this moment changed his posture of standing beside Xu Kongwang, looking down from above, tiger-eyed and watchful.
Lan Tiansheng yawned, not at all intimidated by him, and teased: "Hei Hu, we both know each other's backgrounds; why bother like this?"
"What you want to do, I know clearly in my heart; you approach Xu Kongwang, bow to him, isn't it just for his Dharma Protector position, and also for his bloodline?"
"Xu Kongwang is formidable in strength; you are no match for him; wanting to kill him, relying on you alone, cannot be done."
Hei Hu ignored his words and walked past him.
Lan Tiansheng turned around and slowly said: "I can help you."
Hei Hu's steps paused slightly; he did not turn, and a terrifying pressure erupted from his body, rushing toward Lan Tiansheng; Lan Tiansheng, unafraid of his pressure, continued: "We share the same enemy; Xu Kongwang has already been crippled, lost his courage, and can no longer advance to Demon Emperor."
The scene that took place inside the Demon Emperor's Hall appeared in Hei Hu's mind; finally, His Majesty the Demon Emperor left Bai Xinlan, not Xu Kongwang, indicating his attitude and also indicating that His Majesty the Demon Emperor would no longer choose Xu Kongwang, who has lost his value and the basic qualifications of a ruler.
From then on, Xu Kongwang would never again have a chance at that position; Hei Hu knew this well; if even passing the test of His Majesty the Demon Emperor was impossible, let alone advancing to Demon Emperor, His Majesty the Demon Emperor is old, already at the end of his lifespan; nevertheless, the Demon Emperor remains the Demon Emperor, his majesty undiminished compared to before.
And Xu Kongwang didn't even dare to face an aged Demon Emperor; his future was just like that, unreliable; this gathering gave Hei Hu an idea; he did not reveal it, but Lan Tiansheng appeared and laid bare all of this.
"Xu Kongwang has lost the qualification to advance to Demon Emperor; no matter what he does or how hard he tries, the outcome will not change; Hei Hu, you are the Demon King of Mangshan Demon Palace, and you have the opportunity to take that position."
"If you devour Xu Kongwang, your bloodline will certainly be able to advance again; then, contending for the Demon Emperor's throne will not be impossible."
"And I can help you take down Xu Kongwang; then I will lend you a hand, letting you become His Majesty the Demon Emperor of Mangshan Demon Palace; from then on, you will be the King of Mangshan, the supreme sovereign, before whom all must prostrate."
Lan Tiansheng was drawing a pie; similarly, this pie had no problem, on the contrary, it was fragrant.
Lan Tiansheng understood Hei Hu too well; this person, in cooperating with Xu Kongwang, must have some motive.
And he, knowing Hei Hu's thoughts, also knew that he had taken a liking to Xu Kongwang's bloodline and physique.
Hei Hu turned his body, his eyes fixed tightly on Lan Tiansheng, a flash of killing intent passing by.
It was obvious that he had just wanted to kill him, then keep this secret; after all, no one knows.
"Lan Tiansheng, with your meager strength, don't even talk about helping me; if you aren't eaten by Xu Kongwang, you can count yourself lucky." Hei Hu teased, seriously doubting Lan Tiansheng's strength.
Lan Tiansheng smiled faintly: "My safety is no trouble for you; Xu Kongwang won't kill me; at least, for now he still needs me, so he cannot kill me."
"And you, it's different; if he knows your ambition, do you think he wouldn't kill you?"
Bloodline fusion is not merely a matter for one person.
Hei Hu can devour Xu Kongwang's bloodline; then Xu Kongwang can also devour Hei Hu's bloodline.
This principle is mutual.
"Hmph." Hei Hu gave a cold snort, unmoved.
Lan Tiansheng stared at Hei Hu; the two stared at each other for a long time, and their gazes grew gentle.
Hei Hu extended his hand: "Lan Tiansheng, you... have convinced me."
Lan Tiansheng followed suit, extending his hand; the two clasped hands, reaching a preliminary agreement.
At least, for now, they are allies.
Elsewhere.
Two Demon Kings stood together; the Phantom Butterfly Demon King Diewumeng stepped lightly, appearing beside the Local Bee King; fragrant breezes wafted, lingering around.
Her silhouette was like a startled swan.
"Bee King, do you have any ideas?"
Diewumeng's voice carried a crispness, concealing allure.
Like a demon's low murmur echoing in the mind, she looked at the Bee King before her with a smile; the relatively petite Bee King, about the same height as Diewumeng, neither was called scrawny, and the height difference compared to Hei Hu and them was far greater.
The Bee King glanced at Diewumeng and sneered: "Diewumeng, don't try that trick on me; I have no ideas, and you'd better not try to fool me."
"Inside Mangshan Demon Palace, the capable are countless; everyone wants to sit in that position, except you and me, we cannot."
Diewumeng smiled faintly: "Why?"
"Under His Majesty the Demon Emperor come the Left and Right Dharma Protectors, then it's our turn; below are many Demon Generals, their strength not weak; the Left and Right Dharma Protectors' strength far surpasses ours; opposing them is a dead end."
"The Right Dharma Protector Xu Kongwang is sly and deceitful, holds grudges; offending him, you can't just walk away unscathed."
"The Left Dharma Protector Bai Xinlan, don't think her lack of interest in the Demon Emperor's throne on the surface means anything; in fact, she also has great prospects."
"Compared to those two, what are we two?"
"Even Hei Hu has more hope than we do."
The Bee King's icy voice echoed in the ears; he would not be taken in, nor fall for a scheme.
"Moreover, there is a variable here: the Mangshan Snake King, who has always been aloof, rarely appears, only showing up at each gathering; this person is extremely dangerous, and we have all overlooked him."
Among the four Demon Kings, the Mangshan Snake King's presence is the lowest, often overlooked.
The Bee King, however, has always kept an eye on him; every time he appears, the Bee King watches him; this person's strength is strong, and he hides himself well.
Compared to these people, the two of them have little hope; moreover, the Bee King also has his own plans and does not want to take that position.
That step is not easy to take; even if one steps up, they lack the strength to hold it.
Better not to go up, becoming the target of everyone's criticism.
"Bee King, I didn't expect you to see things so clearly." Diewumeng praised; what the Bee King said was not wrong.
Moreover, it is very reasonable.
Those people, each is not easy to deal with; among them, the overlooked Mangshan Snake King, that is a tough character.
This person is of the same kind as His Majesty the Demon Emperor, and will naturally receive his support.
The situation inside Mangshan Demon Palace is chaotic; the more they act, the worse it gets.
"Moreover." The Bee King said softly: "We still don't know the condition of His Majesty the Demon Emperor; he is the most dangerous."
Having said that, the Bee King turned and left.
Diewumeng stared at his back, smiling faintly.
This is a smart person.
Those things are not something I can meddle in; I should just focus on my cultivation.
However.
