Chapter 1205: Are you sure that's what he said?
Negotiation? After glancing at Bei Zun, whose face was ferocious and who kept roaring angrily, and then at the solemn He Liu, Ye Zhangqing and the others all felt something was off.
This really looks like they want to negotiate? You must have misunderstood the situation.
However, everyone also couldn't understand what Bei Zun was saying, so they could only speak to He Liu.
"Ask him what he wants to negotiate about."
Upon hearing that, He Liu turned his head, immediately put on a respectful expression, and spoke in the demon language.
"Esteemed Demon God, I am He Liu, your most loyal servant."
It's clearly audible that He Liu stutters when speaking; he is obviously not very fluent in the demon language.
Fortunately, Bei Zun managed to guess and understand; he looked at He Liu with icy eyes and gritted his teeth.
"Vile humans, what tricks are you trying again?"
These vile humans, at this moment they've brought another person over, still trying to deceive me?
"Will I still fall for it?"
But the next second, a wisp of demonic aura appeared around He Liu.
Huh???
Seeing this, Bei Zun was stunned—how could a human have demonic power? Then he heard He Liu continue to explain.
"Esteemed Demon God, I cultivate a noble demon race technique; I am the demon race's most loyal servant."
This time, Bei Zun somewhat believed it, after all, demonic power cannot lie to him.
With a burning gaze, Bei Zun looked at He Liu and spoke.
"If that's the case, then kill me and give me a quick death."
"Esteemed Demon God, that's not advisable— as the saying goes, 'As long as the green hills remain, there's no fear of running out of firewood'; as long as one lives, there are infinite possibilities."
"Get lost, I said— have you kill me right now."
Unfortunately, Bei Zun completely ignores these, he's solely seeking death.
While watching the two's conversation, Qi Xiong on the side also asked curiously.
"What is he saying?"
"This... the Esteemed Demon God said he wants a fine Dong Fu; that's the prerequisite."
He Liu knows that with his own ability, it's impossible to rescue Bei Zun.
After all, he himself is also a prisoner.
So, he can only do his best to make Bei Zun's life more comfortable; that's all he can do.
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiong and the others all frowned.
Want a fine Dong Fu?
Everyone's gaze turned to Bei Zun, who was again roaring angrily— "You really sure he means that? This doesn't look like it at all."
Staring at He Liu with a doubtful look, Qi Xiong confirmed again.
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely certain."
"Kill me if you can."
"I would rather die than submit, vile humans— give up on that idea, I will never surrender."
Huh???
With that attitude, still wanting a Dong Fu? After a brief thought, Qi Xiong directly said.
"Ask him what he can give us."
If you're going to negotiate, you definitely need leverage; having nothing and still wanting a Dong Fu?
Upon hearing that, He Liu turned his head to look at Bei Zun again, respectfully said.
"Esteemed Demon God, I told these humans, and they said they're willing to let you go."
Huh???
"Really?"
"Absolutely certain."
"Impossible— how could these vile humans be so kind? There must be a trick, definitely a trick; I don't believe it— if you have the ability, just kill me."
Bei Zun only stunned for a moment, then immediately roared again.
Seeing this, He Liu remained expressionless, directly turning his head to look at Qi Xiong and the others.
"The Esteemed Demon God said he can tell you the information you want to know, including the situation of the demon race."
"The demon race's situation?"
Upon hearing that, to be honest, Qi Xiong and the others felt somewhat moved.
After all, everyone's understanding of the demon race is still superficial.
If we could learn more about the demon race, it would also be beneficial for future actions.
After exchanging glances, seeing no opposition, Qi Xiong nodded and said.
"Fine, but we need to get the bottom line first."
Regarding that, He Liu didn't waste words, turned his head and said to Bei Zun.
"Esteemed Demon God, these humans said they greatly admire a warrior like you; although you're an enemy, we also sympathize, so we won't kill you, and we will also treat you well."
Huh???
Upon hearing that, Bei Zun was stunned— admiring a warrior like me?
For a moment, Bei Zun's heart shook, then he looked at Qi Xiong and the others with a proud expression— "You still have some discernment."
However, facing Bei Zun's gaze, Qi Xiong and the others were all dazed.
This guy's got a problem—why is he suddenly looking at us like that?
Bei Zun felt he was naturally the demon race's bravest warrior; these humans could see that, which shows they have some insight.
"Tell these humans that even so, this king won't feel grateful."
"Yes, yes, therefore Esteemed Demon God, you shouldn't seek death—victory and defeat are common in war, as the saying goes, heroes admire heroes. These humans have already felt your valor, so they won't make things difficult for you."
"But the humans' situation is somewhat special; even if they wanted to let you go, they couldn't, so we can only wrong the Esteemed Demon God and have you stay temporarily."
He Liu looked sincere; upon hearing this, Bei Zun pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"All right, but they must guarantee the safety of my demon warriors under my command."
"Esteemed Demon God, rest assured, I'll communicate with them right away."
The two muttered a bunch of words; Qi Xiong and the others didn't understand a single word. Then He Liu turned his head again, solemnly looking at Qi Xiong and the others and said.
"The Esteemed Demon God said, our demon race has strong warriors as numerous as clouds; their strength is beyond your imagination."
"Just beings like the Esteemed Demon God alone number in the hundreds of thousands among the demon race."
"There are even more formidable beings, but he'll only speak of them after seeing the Dong Fu."
Huh???
"Hundreds of thousands of demon gods? Who the hell are you trying to fool?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned; Qin Shanhei came to, his face darkened, and he roared angrily.
"You're exaggerating—hundreds of thousands of demon gods at great perfection? You think they're like rotten cabbage on the street?"
"What cultivation level is Bei Zun? He's an existence comparable to a great emperor's perfection."
"With such an existence, you tell me the demon race has hundreds of thousands? You're lying to a three-year-old."
He Liu naturally didn't know the specifics of the demon race; he was just making this up to temporarily stabilize Qi Xiong and the others and secure better living conditions for Bei Zun.
At this moment, facing Qin Shanhei's scolding, He Liu panicked inside, but he still forced himself to stay calm and said.
"Believe it or not, you know nothing about the demon race's power, let alone that there are even stronger beings above."
"Stronger beings?"
"Yes."
Everyone's first reaction was disbelief, but then they glanced at Bei Zun.
He didn't shout or yell; even seeing the looks from Qi Xiong and the others, this guy actually nodded in acknowledgment.
The feeling in that gaze seemed to say, "Not bad."
What the hell is this?
Bei Zun nodded, simply because Qi Xiong and the others had seen his brave side; not bad, he Bei Zun is the demon race's bravest warrior.
