“Petty,” another Great Demon said disdainfully. “I’ll send a hundred thousand demonic beasts!”
“I’ll send one hundred and fifty thousand demonic beasts!”
“Two hundred thousand from me!”
The Great Demons spoke one after another, as if what they were talking about weren’t demonic beasts at all but just a number.
Hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts were sent over casually.
!!
Zhou Shu smiled bitterly in his heart. The power of the Demon Realm far exceeded that of the Ten Nations.
The dozen or so Great Demons in front of him casually sent out millions of demonic beasts.
Their goal was only to please Zhou Shu!
If they really invaded the Ten Nations Continent, who knew how many demonic beasts they could send?
Tens of millions?
There were only a dozen or so Great Demons here. How many more Great Demons were there in the Demon Realm?
With such a great disparity in strength, if not for the existence of the barrier between the two worlds, there would be no need to fight this war at all. The humans had no chance of winning at all.
Zhou Shu sighed in his heart and said, “I have enough manpower. The demonic beasts under Demon King Hu Li are enough. But in terms of supplies…
“The Demon King Palace that Demon King Hu Li wants to build will be the most majestic palace in the Demon Realm. As you know, building such a palace is too expensive.”
The Great Demons looked at each other. We don’t know. We don’t build palaces. Other than Demon King Ao, who once built a palace in the Demon Realm, the other Demon Kings, including Great Demons, didn’t spend much time on this.
Moreover, even if they built anything, they would just leave it to the demonic beasts under them. They didn’t care about how many things were used and how much money was spent.
This was nothing to Great Demons.
But it didn’t matter. They were only afraid that Yao Qing wouldn’t say anything. If he had any request, they could make him owe them a favor.
If he owed them a favor, they could then ask him for guidance later.
The Great Demons were quite scheming.
“Don’t worry, Nephew Yao Qing. With us around, we’ll definitely help you carry out Demon King Hu Li’s instructions smoothly. We’ll settle whatever you lack.”
The Great Demons rushed to speak, lest they lose out to the other Great Demons.
Zhou Shu sighed with emotion again. These Great Demons are so cute.
It was so touching for them to be so eager to provide things to him.
The way they were doing it made him feel a little embarrassed. When they went to war, should he kill them or should he kill them?
Zhou Shu didn’t think too far ahead for the time being. “Everyone, please be quiet and let me finish.”
The Great Demons fell silent.
If the real Yao Qing saw this scene, his eyeballs would definitely fall to the ground.
Yao Qing had to be careful when he saw these Great Demons in the past.
What about now?
The tables seem to have turned.
Zhou Shu continued, “It can be considered that Demon King Hu Li is borrowing from everyone. Demon King Hu Li will give everyone an IOU.”
A Great Demon raised his hand like a primary school student. After Zhou Shu gestured, he said, “Nephew Yao Qing, you’re looking down on us. We’re all Great Demons, so we have some reputation. We’re giving things to you, and we don’t need an IOU from Hu Li.”
“This Great Demon—” Zhou Shu said.
The Great Demon seized the opportunity and hurriedly said. “Nephew Yao Qing, my name is Yao Baobao.”
Pfft! Zhou Shu spat out a mouthful of saliva and almost spat it in the Great Demon’s face.
“Yao… Baobao1?”
He looked at the Great Demon’s bearded face and couldn’t bear to look him straight in the eye.
He felt that he would never be able to look at the word ‘baobao’ the same way again.
“Hehe, my name isn’t bad, right?” The Great Demon named Yao Baobao chuckled. “I chose this name myself. I’m a treasure1.”
Zhou Shu was speechless. What’s going on? If you’re not cultured, can you not talk nonsense?
He gave him a thumbs-up. Against his will, he said, “Good name.”
Yao Baobao looked around proudly. See, even Yao Qing praised my name. It seems that I really have the bearing of a Demon King!
“Lord Yao Baobao, you were wrong.” Zhou Shu endured the discomfort and continued. “It’s not that I want to borrow things from you, but Demon King Hu Li.
“This Demon King Palace has nothing to do with me. I’m helping Demon King Hu Li manage these things for free. Therefore, the things you’re lending are all considered borrowed by Demon King Hu Li, and he will provide the IOUs and repay you in the future.
“All of you are my elders. I definitely can’t let you suffer, right?” Zhou Shu continued. “Demon King Hu Li is one of us, and everyone is one of us, so no one can suffer a loss.”
“Nephew Yao Qing, you’re brilliant!” The Great Demons raised their thumbs.
“We trust your words. Nephew, we’ll obey your instructions,” Yao Baobao hurriedly said. “If you lack anything, just tell me. I’ll ask my demonic beasts to send them over immediately. I’ll think of a way to find what I don’t have.”
“I promise I won’t make things difficult for you, Nephew!”
Seeing that Yao Baobao had beaten them to it again, the Great Demons fought to speak.
Zhou Shu nodded in satisfaction. “How about this? The construction of the Demon King Palace is too cumbersome. I don’t have time to make a list. What do you have? Why don’t you make a list for me?
“If there’s something I need, I’ll ask you for it. What do you think?”
“Good idea! You’re smarter than us. No wonder you were able to help Demon King Hu Li break through to the Demon King realm,” Yao Baobao said shamelessly.
The Great Demons looked at him in disdain. Yao Baobao is too shameless. Isn’t it embarrassing to flatter a junior like this?
“Lord Yao Baobao, you flatter me.” Zhou Shu felt his hair stand on end. He couldn’t help but say, “Lord Yao Baobao, I have a suggestion. I don’t know if I should say it.”
“Please do, Nephew. I’m all ears.” Yao Baobao looked smug. That’s right, I’m all ears. I should have used it correctly.
“Baobao is a good name, but I don’t think it’s good enough for a lord like you,” Zhou Shu said. “I suggest that you change your name to Aotian, Yao Aotian.”
Zhou Shu looked up at the sky and spoke in a clear voice. “As the saying goes, my fate is in my hands, not the heavens. As a demon, I should be Yao Aotian1!”
“As the saying goes, my fate is in my hands, not the heavens. As a demon, I should be Yao Aotian?” Yao Baobao was stunned, and his face revealed ecstasy.
Boom!
A powerful aura suddenly rose from his body. The aura kept rising as if it was about to break through a limit. A thunderclap sounded in the sky.
Everyone, including Zhou Shu, was shocked.
No way?
Yao Baobao was going to break through to the Demon King Realm too?
Is this really happening?
He just couldn’t get used to the name Yao Baobao. He just casually said a few words, and he comprehended it?
Isn’t the aptitude of these Great Demons too heaven-defying?
The other Great Demons were also shocked. They looked at Yao Baobao enviously, then at Zhou Shu in unison. The green light in their eyes almost swallowed Zhou Shu.
The second one!
If Demon King Hu Li was a coincidence, what about Yao Baobao?
He only helped Yao Baobao change his name, but Yao Baobao was about to break through?
Boom!
Thunder rumbled in the sky for a few moments, then dissipated into the air.
Although Yao Baobao’s aura had not broken through to the Demon King realm, it had improved tremendously.
“My fate is in my hands, not the heavens. As a demon, I should be the Yao Aotian! From now on, I am Yao Aotian!” Yao Baobao laughed loudly. “Nephew Yao Qing, you’re really my benefactor! With your advice, in another hundred years of cultivation, I, Yao Aotian, will definitely become a Demon King!
“From now on, your matters are my matters. Your enemies are my enemies! Nephew, just you wait. I’ll go back now and move all the things in my warehouse over. From today onward, I will personally help you build this Demon King Palace!”
