“Urgh…” The muscles on Hu Li’s face twisted. He grunted and slowly opened his eyes.

“Yao Aotian?” When Hu Li saw Yin Chengshan, he asked in confusion, “What is this place? Why are you here?”

“Thank heavens you’re finally awake.” Yin Chengshan exhaled. “You haven’t forgotten what happened just now, right? You were severely injured by Demon King Ao, and they even locked you up. I risked my life to save you.”

“You saved me?” Hu Li was stunned for a moment. He didn’t think carefully about how Yao Aotian had the ability to save him from the Demon Kings. “Oh no, Yao Qing!”

Hu Li struggled to get up, but halfway up, he fell back with a thump.

“You’d better not move. You’re seriously injured. Even if you rush over now, can you help Yao Qing?” Yin Chengshan sighed.

“Yao Aotian!” Hu Li’s eyes widened. “Yao Qing changed your name and gave you the hope of breaking through to the Demon King realm. You’re actually so ungrateful! You know he’s in danger, but you’re still not helping him?

“I, Hu Li, am not a demonic beast like you. Even if I die, I have to protect Yao Qing!

“Get out of my way!” He pushed Yin Chengshan’s arm away with all his might, but he was weak and almost fell to the ground again.

“Demon King Hu Li, you have no conscience.” Yin Chengshan shook his head. “If I were ungrateful, would I take such a huge risk to save you?

“I don’t have much of a relationship with you! I saved you because of Yao Qing!

“Yao Qing is in danger. I want to save him more than you do. But do you think you will be able to help him like this?”

Yin Chengshan said solemnly, “If you rush over now, not only will you not be able to save Yao Qing, but you will also drag him down with you! Do you think that with Yao Qing’s loyalty, he will abandon you when he sees you in danger?”

Hu Li frowned and looked at Yao Aotian as if he didn’t know him. “Yao Aotian, I didn’t realize that you were so thoughtful in the past!”

Yin Chengshan’s heart skipped a beat. He pretended to be calm and said, “This is the difference between you and Yao Qing. Have you forgotten the evaluation Yao Qing gave me?

“My fate is in my hands, not the heavens. As a demon, I should be Yao Aotian! Am I an ordinary demonic beast?” He spouted nonsense and changed the topic. “If we want to help Yao Qing, we have to protect ourselves first!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yin Chengshan trusted Zhou Shu very much. He believed that even with two Demon Kings chasing after Zhou Shu, Zhou Shu would definitely be able to escape unscathed.

Therefore, he wasn’t too worried about Zhou Shu’s safety. He was thinking about how to complete the mission Zhou Shu had assigned him!

Hu Li might have given him an opportunity!

“Hmph, what do you have in mind?” Hu Li snorted coldly. His mind was in a mess, and he had no idea what to do.

“Hu Li, do you have any trusted demonic beasts among your subordinates?” Yin Chengshan asked.

“Nonsense! Under my command, an army of a million demonic beasts—”

“That’s in the past,” Yin Chengshan interrupted. “Now, your territory and your army have been divided up by the Demon Kings. I dare to say that if you dare to show your face now, those Demon Kings will capture you and lock you in the dungeon like you’re a human. Do you believe me?”

Hu Li glared at Yao Aotian.

But when he thought of the faces of the Demon Kings before, he felt that this wasn’t impossible.

“Why is it like this?” Hu Li scratched his head hard with a puzzled expression. “Why are the Demon Kings like that? Demon King Ao wasn’t like that in the past!”

“In the past, it was because you weren’t a Demon King that you couldn’t see the true colors of the Demon Kings,” Yin Chengshan said.

“When did you Demon Kings take other demonic beasts seriously? The lives of demonic beasts are not worth mentioning in the eyes of Demon Kings.

“In the past, you were just used to it. Now that you’ve become a Demon King, you think you have the right to be on equal footing with them. But what happened in the end?”

Yin Chengshan’s tone was bewitching.

Hu Li was confused. He couldn’t react.

“You mean I have nothing left? My demonic beast army, my territory, and my Demon King Palace…” Hu Li muttered to himself, and hatred gradually rose in his eyes.

All of this was because of those Demon Kings!

“Thank Yao Qing,” Yin Chengshan said.

“He was long worried that you would suffer a loss, so he asked me to help you in advance. Yao Qing arranged some tricks in the Demon King Palace. Initially, he wanted me to tell you after the ceremony just in case.

“As he expected, Demon King Ao wanted to rob your Demon King Palace.”

“Damn it!” Hu Li’s fist slammed the ground heavily, his face filled with anger.

“Don’t worry. He didn’t take it away,” Yin Chengshan said.

“He didn’t? Can you help me protect the Demon King Palace from Demon King Ao?” Hu Li said in surprise.

“Of course I don’t have the ability, but I can destroy the Demon King Palace even if I can’t protect it,” Yin Chengshan said. “Didn’t I just say that Yao Qing set up a trick in the Demon King Palace? He said that if someone schemes to take over your Demon King Palace and you get into an accident, I should help to destroy the Demon King Palace!”
