Chapter 1513
「Lan Tiansheng, your information seems very reliable. 」 Diewumeng sat inside the Mangshan Demon Palace Dadian, with only Lan Tiansheng having come before her; no other Demon Kings came.
All were sitting on the mountain watching the tigers fight, Diewumeng asked with a smile: "May I ask a question, why?"
Their relationship hasn't reached that point; by rights, Lan Tiansheng should be like Bai Xinlan and the others, watching the show, possibly even lending a hand to the Five Poison, letting the Five Poison demon generals injure or even kill her demon sovereign.
Diewumeng never expected him to come help her, finding it unbelievable, which is why this scene occurred.
Diewumeng didn't know the news of the Five Poison demon generals' arrival; she had been in seclusion, only wanting to quickly break through that step, then undergo tribulation, putting everything else aside; only strength could control everything, and that was everything.
All schemes and tricks, all calculations, in the face of absolute strength, are false.
Tribulation Realm, can control everything, can Protector everything, the situation within the Mangshan Mountain Range, Diewumeng is very clear; those Demon Kings are disunited, impossible to be of one mind with her, she also doesn't think she can control them, she merely needs them to stabilize the situation.
「Diewumeng, you being this demon sovereign is beneficial to me; I don't want others to become this demon sovereign, others would definitely attack me. 」
「Moreover, those Demon Kings are ambitious but lack corresponding strength, easily causing their own demise; rather than let the Mangshan Demon Palace fall, it's better to support you. 」
「Whether it's Black Tiger, Bee King, or Bai Xinlan, they all fail—either lacking brains, lacking talent, or lacking strength, unable to recognize their own position; the Mangshan Demon Palace losing its demon sovereign is very dangerous. 」
「And you, Diewumeng, among the Demon Kings are the most likely to break through that step; I naturally support you. 」
Lan Tiansheng said slowly: "The Five Poison demon generals are enemies, indeed external enemies; I naturally will not allow external enemies to act against our Mangshan Demon Palace; how we insiders fight among ourselves is our own affair; outsiders wanting to interfere is impossible."
This is his bottom line, also his principle; outsiders are ultimately outsiders, only wanting to control the Mangshan Demon Palace; as for how the Mangshan Demon Palace fares, they don't care, only wanting to increase their own strength, only thinking of themselves.
For personal gain, one could sacrifice the entire Mangshan Mountain Range; Lan Tiansheng is unwilling to see this happen.
「Just like that? 」 Diewumeng narrowed her eyes, unwilling to believe his words.
These reasons are too fake; Diewumeng won't believe that only these reasons are enough to…… let Lan Tiansheng risk danger to help her.
Lan Tiansheng laughed heartily: "Indeed it's Diewumeng, you're very smart, and there's another important reason."
「Oh? 」 Diewumeng asked curiously: "What reason?"
「It's related to Longshe Shan. 」 Lan Tiansheng gave no specific description.
Upon hearing this, Diewumeng suddenly realized: "So that's how it is; it seems you are indeed a person of Longshe Shan, I never expected you, Lan Tiansheng, to actually be loyal to Longshe Shan, tsk tsk tsk."
This person, however……
In the end he submitted, connecting his actions, Diewumeng instantly understood; this person has always been a person of Longshe Shan, since the last time, he…… became different, his actions utterly without pattern.
If he is a person of Longshe Shan, then all this can be explained.
「According to what Qinglong Daoren wants, it seems to be a Mangshan Mountain Range that has fallen into chaos, rather than a stable Mangshan Mountain Range. 」
「What you're doing, isn't that contrary to his idea? 」
Diewumeng is very curious, just how loyal is Lan Tiansheng?
Or perhaps, his life and death are under control, obeying Longshe Shan; is this Longshe Shan's order, or…?
「You don't need to worry about this. 」 Lan Tiansheng waved his hand, not wanting to continue this topic, but instead looked outside.
「The Five Poison demon generals are about to act; it seems they want to set up their best Five Poison Grand Formation; you…… won't you intervene? If they succeed in forming the formation, you could be trapped and then become their prey. 」
Diewumeng remained unmoved, having no intention to stop them.
「Do you think I can stop them? The Five Poison demon generals will act, they will surely set up a formation, aiming to trap us, then attack me. 」
「Five Poison Grand Formation, I don't know how powerful this Formation is; can it stop me? 」
「And Bai Xinlan and the others, are they really going to help outsiders attack me? 」
Diewumeng is very curious, also…… anticipating.
How they fight among themselves is their own affair; if they help outsiders attack him, then once this gets out, those demon beasts below will think what, and those other Demon Kings will also think how; someone always wants to rise to power; although demon beasts don't have as many rules as humans, they still know one principle: that the Mangshan Mountain Range is their own territory, and outsiders must not control it.
Whoever takes control is fine, but it must not be an outsider.
「They won't act, but they can make you embarrassed. 」 Lan Tiansheng raised his head, feeling the traces of the Formation.
The Five Poison Grand Formation has already begun to be set up.
A layer of light enveloped the Mangshan Demon Palace; five people, five positions, formed the Formation base, sealing the Mangshan Demon Palace, yet no one stopped them.
Or rather, those Demon Kings deliberately did this, wanting to use outsiders' hands to act against them, making this demon sovereign suffer embarrassment, preferably injured; if she fell, even better, then they could act, deal with the Five Poison demon generals, and then rescue the Mangshan Demon Palace.
「Diewumeng, this Formation, are you confident? 」 Lan Tiansheng felt some worry, sensing the pressure of the Five Poison Grand Formation, making him very displeased.
Poison gas, began to spread.
Those toxins are very…… lethal; they also cannot absorb too much.
「None. 」
Diewumeng stood up, speaking calmly: "Is this the Five Poison Grand Formation? The Five Poison demon generals of the Myriad Demon Hall are indeed extraordinary."
「Our Mangshan Demon Palace's demon generals are no match for those five; if these five advance to Demon King, they'd be…… formidable. 」
「It's a pity, such people are not of our Mangshan Demon Palace. 」
Diewumeng arose a fondness for talent; such talent should be used by her, alas, this is an enemy.
The Five Poison demon generals, with a little cultivation, can advance to Demon King; then, giving them some elixirs to boost their strength, the five working together, under the demon sovereign, would be invincible.
「Now isn't the time to talk about this; think about how you'll face them next. 」 Lan Tiansheng said speechlessly.
This woman, still not in a hurry.
Everyone has already fought to the doorstep, yet she is so relaxed, so……
「Lan Tiansheng, you won't make a move? 」
Lan Tiansheng waved his hand speechlessly: "I really don't want to act; I'm still quite weak now; at critical moments a sneak attack is fine, but having me face them head-on? Better not."
「How about this: you fight them first, then I'll sneak attack and kill one; the other four will naturally not be a problem; later, sending these corpses to Longshe Shan will surely fetch many elixirs; shall we split them evenly? 」
Diewumeng shook her head: "Seven-three, I get seven, you get three."
「Six-four. 」 Lan Tiansheng said dissatisfied: "Diewumeng, don't be excessive; at worst, I don't want elixirs, you fight them yourself."
「Fine, then six-four, don't get angry. 」 Diewumeng compromised; actually, this is the ratio she wanted.
