âDemon King Palace?â The two Demon Kings looked at each other and saw the doubt in each otherâs eyes. âWhat Demon King Palace are you talking about?â
âHow can your palaces be called a Demon King Palace?â Hu Li said mockingly. âDonât you find it embarrassing?!
âYou said I was poor, but you are the poor demons.â
Hu Li used all his strength to mock them. âSometimes, I really canât be bothered to criticize you. Arenât you embarrassed to call yourselves Demon Kings? All of you live in dilapidated houses. I donât even want to call them palaces.â
âHu Li, youâre going overboard!â the two Demon Kings said coldly with ugly expressions.
âIâm going overboard?â Hu Li laughed. âIâm still giving you face. Otherwise, Iâd be even more honest.â
The two Demon Kings narrowed their eyes. One of them sneered. âHu Li, our residences donât deserve to be called Demon King Palaces. Then, is this place youâre living worthy of it?â
His gaze swept across the residence of Hu Li. This was where Hu Li had lived before he became a Demon King. It matched the dilapidated house he had mentionedâ¦
âHehe.â Hu Li chuckled. âNaturally, this place isnât worthy.
âIâll broaden your horizons in two days!â
Thinking of Zhou Shuâs orders, Hu Li stiffly changed the topic. âYou are both Demon Kings. You didnât come to participate in my advancement ceremony empty-handed, right?
âIf youâre really short on money and canât come up with anything good, itâs fine. Iâm magnanimous. Iâm very happy that youâre here. I have enough wine and meat.â
The two Demon Kingsâ faces darkened. Why didnât they realize before that this damn tiger was so eloquent?
Originally, they had come early for another purpose, not to bicker with Hu Li.
How did they end up being pulled down to Hu Liâs level by him, where he used his rich experience to make them look like fools?
âHu Li, cut the crap,â one of the two Demon Kings said. âWe didnât forget your congratulatory gift. We didnât come early to bicker with you. We have serious business.â
âI donât have any relationship with you. Why did you look for me?â Hu Li asked.
When he was still a Great Demon, the only Demon King he had come into contact with was Demon King Ao. He had never seen Demon King Tiangou and Demon King LiuâEr before.
Demon Kings were high and mighty existences in the Demon Realm. Ordinary demonic beasts were not qualified to meet them.
Take Yao Qing for example. His mother was the number one Great Demon below the Demon Kings, but he had never seen a Demon King with his own eyes.
Since this was the case for Yao Qing, it was imaginable what it was like for other demonic beasts in the Demon Realm.
The reason Hu Li had been able to come into contact with Demon King Ao in the past was that he was originally a vassal of Demon King Ao. Otherwise, even if he was a Great Demon, it wouldnât have been so easy for him to see a Demon King.
He couldnât understand why Tiangou and LiuâEr were looking for him.
âHu Li, you should know about Demon Queen Tushan, right?â The one who spoke was Tiangou. He looked at Hu Li seriously.
âWhat about Tushan? I donât have much of a relationship with her,â Hu Li said.
Tiangouâs face darkened.?Who asked you if you have a relationship with Tushan?
You were just an ordinary Great Demon in the past. What right do you have to be friends with Tushan?
We Demon Kings canât even befriend her!
âTu Shan is missing,â Tiangou said.
âI didnât do it. It has nothing to do with me!â Hu Li blurted out subconsciously.
Tiangouâs and LiuâErâs faces darkened again.?Why is Hu Li so anxious? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Did we say you did it?
Even if you want to do it, do you have the ability?
Although Tushan is considered a relatively weak existence among the Demon Kings, you have just broken through. Can you defeat her?
âHu Li!â Tiangou was getting impatient. âWeâre talking business with you! If you continue to mess around, donât blame us for being impolite!â
âHow are you going to be impolite?â Hu Li said generously. âIâm not afraid of you. Continue.â
He pretended to be all ears.
Tiangou snorted. âTushan is missing. We suspect that she was harmed by the humansââ
âTiangou, are you kidding me?â Hu Li couldnât help interrupting. âThe human race doesnât even have a Great Demon realm expert. How can they harm Tushan? Not to mention, the gap in the barrier between the two worlds has been blocked. Why would there be human experts in the Demon Realm?
âI think Tushan might be hiding somewhere to play. Anyway, Demon Kings are always missing. Isnât it normal for one to disappear for over a hundred years?â
Hu Li was unconcerned.
âI said you were ignorant, but you refused to admit it.â The monkey-faced LiuâEr sneered. âSince we said it, we are naturally confident! You donât understand the matters between Demon Kings.â
His face was full of contempt for Hu Li.
âI donât understand. Then, why are you here?â Hu Li said. âIâve never even seen Tushan!â
âWe came to you because we want you to cooperate with us on something.â
Tiangou could already tell that they couldnât go along with Hu Li. Otherwise, he would continue to mess around.
He simply ignored what Hu Li said and continued speaking.
âYou advanced to the Demon King realm and are holding some kind of advancement ceremony. Everyone in the Demon Realm knows about it. We can use this opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole.â
