Yao Buqi finally realized that Zhou Shu was not Mi Ziwen. Facing Zhou Shu, he had no room for negotiation.
The key was that a fellow who could fight a great demon to a draw or even win was indeed qualified to speak to him like this!
âVery well!â Yao Buqi swallowed his anger. A wise man submitted to circumstances. He would endure this today!
âKing of the South, do you know that your Ten Nations Continent is in danger?â Yao Buqi said solemnly.
Zhou Shu looked up at him, his eyes cold.
âDonât make a fool of yourself with rumors youâve heard,â Zhou Shu said. âYouâre a demonic beast. Isnât it good to be straightforward? Why do you have to learn from the dregs of the human race?â
Swish!
Shi Songtao laughed. âYao Buqi, did you learn your human language from a fortune teller?â
Yao Buqi glared at Shi Songtao.?Donât let me get the chance, or Iâll bite you to death!
âIâm giving you one last chance to clear things up in three sentences,â Zhou Shu said. âIf your news is of value to me, Iâll consider letting you go.â
Yao Buqi wanted to ask,?Why should I believe you? What if I tell you, and you donât let me go?
But he didnât dare.
He had been here for some time and knew that Zhou Shu had the final say in this camp.
He said heâll give me a chance to say three sentences. If I canât make myself clear in three sentences, he really might tell me to get the hell out.
With his strength, he has the right to be willful.
In the end, with his cultivation level that could defeat Yao Lian, even if the Demon Realm attacked the Ten Nations Continent, he might not dieâ¦
âIâll say it!â Yao Buqi said.
âThat counts as one sentence,â Shi Songtao said.
If looks could kill, Shi Songtao would have been cut into pieces by Yao Buqi.
In the past, Yao Buqi would not even bother to look at a human who was not even a Grandmaster.
Now, this person actually looked down on him like this!
A tiger⦠no, a deer in the plains is bullied by a?dog1! Yao Buqi thought hatefully. He didnât even look at Shi Songtao.
âYour human raceâs imperial cauldrons are already damaged, and cracks have appeared in the barrier of the Ten Nations Continent.â Yao Buqi said.
âThe Demon Realm army has already gathered and is preparing to attack the Ten Nations Continent. The Demon Realm army that came to this world is only the vanguard. Moreover, Lord Yao Lian is carrying a secret mission!â
Yao Buqi wasnât very proficient in human language to begin with. Now that he was worried that Zhou Shu would interrupt him, he spoke a little faster. After a series of words, he felt a little out of breath.
âThatâs it?â Zhou Shu was a little disappointed.
He thought there was a big secret.
He had already known that the imperial cauldrons were damaged for a long time.
He had even seen Great Qinâs imperial cauldron with his own eyes.
It was no secret that the Demon Realm was going to invade the Ten Nations.
Why else would they organize the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?
On the other hand, he was actually interested in the mission Yao Lian had.
âYao Buqi, you want your freedom in exchange for this information? You think too much of yourself, donât you?â Zhou Shu laughed coldly. âDeputy Pavilion Master, tell him if this is a secret.â
âYao Buqi, listen up. Our human expert Cao Chenyang returned from the Demon Realm a few days ago. We already know what you just said.â Shi Songtao said proudly, âWe even know that Great Wei colluded with your Demon Realm.â
Yao Buqi was stunned. As a captive, he was not qualified to know the news Cao Chenyang brought back.
âNoâ¦â Yao Buqi struggled and said, âYou definitely donât know how your imperial cauldrons were damaged!â
âIsnât it just that Great Qin tried to use its imperial cauldron to steal the power of the Demon Realm and lost control?â Shi Songtao said disdainfully.
âAlright, take him out,â Zhou Shu said angrily. âIâm busy.â
Mi Ziwen was a little embarrassed. He had been fooled by this demon.
âWait a minute!â Yao Buqi shouted. âThereâs one thing you definitely donât know!â
Without waiting for Zhou Shu to ask, he broke free from Shi Songtaoâs grip and continued, âLord Yao Lian has an imperial cauldron!â
âWhat did you say?â Zhou Shu frowned and finally looked up at Yao Buqi.
The imperial cauldrons were where the veins of the Ten Nations were located, and they had always been in the hands of the rulers of the Ten Nations.
Previously, the emperors had used the Ten Imperial Cauldrons to open the space of the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.
If any of the imperial cauldrons were lost, it was impossible to open this battlefield space.
How was it possible that Yao Lian had an imperial cauldron?
âTo be precise, itâs probably a replica of an imperial cauldron,â Yao Buqi said. âOtherwise, it would be impossible for Lord Yao Lian to come to this world.
âAlthough thereâs a problem with the barrier between the two worlds, experts above the first stage of the Martial Dao are still unable to pass through. Lord Yao Lian was able to pass through the barrier and come to this world because of the fake imperial cauldron.â
Zhou Shu and Mi Ziwen looked at each other. So that was it.
No wonder no great demon had come to the battlefield space during the previous Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournaments. But this time, a great demon had suddenly descended.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhere did the fake imperial cauldron come from? You demons donât have a forger, right?â Zhou Shu asked.
âWhy not?â Yao Buqi said. âYao Qingâs fatherââ
He stopped mid-sentence.
Yao Qingâs father was humanâ¦
âYou mean Ji Lutian helped forge an imperial cauldron?â Zhou Shu frowned.
According to what he knew before, Ji Lutian should be on the humansâ side.
Would he help the Demon Realm forge an imperial cauldron?
Besides, did he have the ability?
The imperial cauldrons were not ordinary weapons. Even though Zhou Shu had come into contact with one before, he wouldnât be able to replicate it.
Although Ji Lutian was a Grand Craftsman, Zhou Shu didnât think he had the ability to imitate the imperial cauldron.
âNo.â Yao Buqi shook his head. âI donât know where the imperial cauldron came from. My father didnât tell me.â
âOther than allowing Yao Lian to descend into this world in advance, what other use does that fake imperial cauldron have?â Zhou Shu asked.
âIt can connect with the power of the mountains and rivers, greatly increasing Lord Yao Lianâs strength,â Yao Buqi said. âBut that imperial cauldron is an imitation. It can only be used once. After using it, the cauldron will be useless.â
âDo you mean to say that Yao Lian can only unleash his increased power once?â Zhou Shu pondered. âHow much can it increase his strength?â
Unless Yao Lianâs strength increased tenfold, he could still kill him.
The strength of the great demon Yao Lian was about 25 times his current strength.
Even if it doubled, it was only equivalent to 50 times his current combat strength.
But Zhou Shuâs strength was still increasing, and so was his divine ability Total Annihilation.
The next time he attacked, his strength would definitely be stronger than now. Moreover, the enhancement of Total Annihilation would definitely increase.
Zhou Shu didnât believe that a fake imperial cauldron could increase Yao Lianâs combat strength tenfold.
âIâm not too sure how much more exactly,â Yao Buqi said. âBut it must be at least fifty percent.â
âOnly fifty percent,â Zhou Shu said disdainfully. He had thought that it would at least double. A fake was just a fake.
âYao Buqi, your secret has no value at all,â Zhou Shu said. âBut you seem to know your place. Iâll give you another chance.
âThereâs a special type of five elements jade in the Demon Realm. If you can find me tens of thousands of kilograms of five elements jade, Iâll return your freedom.â
âFive elements jade? Tens of thousands of kilograms?â Yao Buqiâs eyes widened. âYou might as well kill me! Even my life is not worth tens of thousands of kilograms of five elements jade!
âIt would be better if you could snatch the replica of the imperial cauldron from Lord Yao Lian. That replica used a lot of five elements jadeâ¦â
As soon as Yao Buqi said this, he realized that he had let it slip and quickly covered his mouth.
