"Reporting to your majesty, Madam Leng's family has already invited a humble subject back. They're currently outside the palace with a bold decree." As Lu Dan ran into the main hall, he kneeled down respectfully and reported.

When he thought about how he had finally found Leng Hong Xiu's family in that small house, the handsome man couldn't help but shiver when he saw the cold look in his eyes. Judging from his appearance and the coldness in his gaze, he really didn't seem like someone that a human could have, no wonder he was treated as a demon and attacked from all sides.

However, that child was actually the same appearance as him. If that man was a demoness, then his cultivation would transform into a human, but that child was still young, and couldn't have started to cultivate in his mother's stomach. Moreover, due to the influence of the Emperor's Dugu Qing Kuang, he also became unconvinced of the kind of things he hadn't seen before, such as demoness. So if he had to believe that the man and child, or even that Leng Hong Xiu's entire family, were all demons, he really didn't believe it.

"You're here? Why aren't you inviting them in? " Dugu Qing Kuang suddenly stood up from his throne. His previous absent-mindedness from calling for the Blood Sealing Drink had changed to a more upright posture.

When Leng Hong Xiu and Sen Luo walked in, a eunuch had already brought in a chair. Hiroshi stayed in Sen Luo's embrace quietly.

Dugu Qing Kuang then stood up and walked down the stairs. He was not surprised to see his family of three kneel down, and as if he had expected this, he waved his hand and the several eunuchs, including Lu Dan, all silently retreated.

Leng Hong Xiu and Sen Luo did not even twitch their eyebrows when they saw his actions.

She was so quiet that she didn't seem like a five-year-old child. In fact, he had only been born ten days ago, and was already five years old.

"Leng Hong Xiu, don't you want to introduce us?"

The first time he saw Leng Hong Xiu, he wondered what kind of husband such a beautiful and shrewd woman like her would have. Now that he saw her with his own eyes, he truly felt that she was a match for him, this man's looks were truly extraordinary, to the point of being extremely enchanting. In this world, he thought that the leisurely appearance of the third prince was already considered outstanding, but he didn't expect that there would be a man that was ten times more outstanding than him.

"Zeno, my husband; no, my son." As expected, Leng Hong Xiu introduced him, but she did not say much.

When Sen Luo heard that Leng Hong Xiu had recognized him as her husband in front of everyone, he smiled happily. He, who had already become the father of a child, finally had a real reputation today. If it wasn't for Dugu Qing Kuang, Sen Luo really wanted to pick up Leng Hong Xiu and turn her around twice.

"Leng Hong Xiu, you are still as cold as you were yesterday!" After a slight smile, Dugu Qing Kuang straightened his face and said, "Mister Sen, or I should call you Madam Sen. Please take a seat!"

Leng Hong Xiu did not sit down. Naturally, Limitless and Sen Luo did not move either. She only said faintly, "There's no need. Why did the Emperor call us here?"

"Eh? Didn't we reach an agreement yesterday to cooperate? " Dugu Qing Kuang acted as if he didn't see Leng Hong Xiu's cold expression and asked in surprise.

"Is that so? I seem to have also said that it would depend on the sincerity of the Emperor. It's a pity that we did not see the sincerity of the events that occurred six hours ago. Leng Hong Xiu's lips curled up in a mocking smile. After laughing coldly, she spat out those cold words.

"Leng Hong Xiu, you can't blame us for this. If it was anyone else, they would have hesitated when they heard you say that!" Dugu Qing Kuang had a smile on his face, "And at this moment, I believe that you have what I want. Therefore, isn't it a good time to send someone to invite you into the palace to discuss the matter of cooperation?"

"I had originally thought that you, Dugu Qing Kuang, would be different from others. Yet, I had thought that you, Dugu Qing Kuang, would only be a single person. Thus, there is nothing for us to discuss." After saying that, Leng Hong Xiu turned to leave, while Sen Luo and Bu Luo coldly smiled at Dugu Qing Kuang at the same time and turned to leave as well.

After hearing what Leng Hong Xiu said, Dugu Qing Kuang's expression changed several times, and then he started to madly laugh, "Haha! "What a different person. Leng Hong Xiu, what you said is right, of course I am different from any other person, what happened last night really shocked me, tell the truth, I regret not intervening a little earlier, in my life, I have almost never done anything that I regret. If you regret even a single step, then you do not have the same person as I am today, however your family has finally broken the rules, I have to say you guys are truly very capable."

"Sure!" Sen Luo replaced Leng Hong Xiu and said with a faint smile, "However, we need to clarify one thing. It's not that we are too capable, but that you have raised too many useless people who only know how to eat and do nothing. Since you are trash, we naturally have to clean up."

The word 'trash' once again provoked Dugu Qing Kuang, purging his lips to clear away the flood of demon slayers in the country. He then said faintly, "Many thanks for Young Master Sen's wise words, it seems that I have not done enough, if I don't have that kind of trash in the future, I won't harass Young Master Sen's family anymore. I don't know if I could say this, but could you two sit back down and have a chat with me?"

"Red Sleeves!" At this moment, Sen Luo shouted softly.

Leng Hong Xiu immediately turned around and walked back. She sat down on a chair with Sen Luo and asked, "What does the Emperor want to talk about?"

"Leng Hong Xiu, are you still blaming us for not intervening last night? You know, you guys have nothing to lose, yet you still want us to face the terror of the people, and send people to collect the 108 corpses that did not look human. We did not fuss about the crime of killing you guys, and you should not hold onto this either.

If it weren't for the fact that Dugu Qing Kuang was not clear about the background of Leng Hong Xiu and wanted to use them to suppress the three major Demon Slaying Sects, with his usual methods, he would have long since executed the three of them. Why would he let them act so arrogantly in front of him?

"Alright, since that's the case, let me see. Emperor, what can you do for the sake of the Imperial Jade Seal?"

"That depends on how many requests you have from Leng Hong Xiu. As long as we can do it, and if it's reasonable, we will naturally not refuse."

At this point, they officially entered the condition mode.

"You should at least know how and why those dead people came here!" Leng Hong Xiu didn't take Dugu Qing Kuang to be an emperor at all, in fact, she was quite aggressive. Since Leng Hong Xiu had always been like this, Sen Luo did not feel that it was inappropriate, but Dugu Qing Kuang was not used to people talking to him in this manner, but he endured it.

He used his eyes to glance at Sen Luo and Bu Luo, "Those who died were all disciples of the feudal sects. As for how they went to go, isn't it like what you said, a personal grudge? But according to what I know, the other reason is that your husband, Young Master Sen Luo, is rumored to be a demon. That's why the feudal sects who bear the responsibility of killing demons in the country sent so many disciples to besiege the tavern you are staying in, and the only thing that makes me curious is, since you already knew they were here to assassinate you, why didn't you leave in advance? And to cause the murder of so many people? "

"Why should we avoid it? Furthermore, the Bright Moon City is only so big, and with the fact that there's so much trash here, where are we hiding from? They won't follow us like flies, right? "

Sen Luo's tone was filled with mockery and contempt, which made Dugu Qing Kuang even more uncomfortable. As expected of a husband and wife, both of them had mouths that could anger someone to death.

Only then did Leng Hong Xiu slowly add, "Since the emperor is willing to watch them die and not step in to save their lives, why should we be lenient? Fortunately, you have many Demon Slaying Saints in your country, so we don't care about dying a little. However, we only have one life, and it's not worth losing it for.

"Is Young Master Sen Luo really a demoness?" Dugu Qing Kuang didn't reply. Instead, he changed the topic.

"What do you think?" Sen Luo indifferently asked.

I won't hide it from you all, I don't believe in demons. In my entire life, I have never seen a so-called demon spirit, and that demon spirit is the one that the sect leader Feng Xue Nu killed the wife of his so-called fox demon. Even I haven't believed in demons and ghosts, but it's just something that was imagined in the consciousness of a stupid commoner. "Therefore, I have never felt that killing someone for such an outrageous reason is worthy of praise."

Dugu Qing Kuang's tone showed that he loathed the Demon Slayer to an extreme.

When Sen Luo and Bu Luo saw his confident look that there were no Demons in this world, they wanted to transform into a snake tail and let him see that there were not no Demons in this world. At least there were two of them in front of him, but unfortunately, Leng Hong Xiu seemed to have seen through their thoughts.

On the other hand, Leng Hong Xiu noticed another piece of information from Dugu Qing Kuang's words, "Could it be that the Sect Leader of the Feng Sect really married a fox demon? that's why your country believes in Demon Slayer this much? "

It is not because Feng Xue Nu married a fox demon that the people have become so ignorant. It is probably because Feng Xue Nu used the words of 'Great Righteous Bestowal' to gain the support of the school and smoothly ascended to the position of Sect Master. If there really was a fox demon, then that demon would have already eaten him long ago and even given him a daughter, but now he's in front of him waiting to be killed? "

This Dugu Qing Kuang was really born in the wrong era. If he was born in her era, he would definitely believe in science, and science would advocate for the commoners not to believe in superstition, and for Dugu Qing Kuang to believe that there would not be any demons or ghosts, and Dugu Qing Kuang did not believe that there would be any imps, but she did not believe that there would be any imps, but after seeing Sen Luo this idiot, she did not believe it, and she believed it as well.

After all, there are times when science can't explain things. It's like the UFO topic. Almost every country talks about it, but no scientist can prove whether it's an alien civilization or not, right? This was why humans could not be too absolute, but she had no interest in carrying out this kind of literacy exercise with Dugu Qing Kuang. After she heard Dugu Qing Kuang say that Feng Xie had once married a fox demon and had a daughter, she could not help but start to suspect and associate that Feng Xie was so enchanting that her face did not resemble a human's. Furthermore, her strange and almost abnormal temperament … could it be possible that she was the fox demon from back then, and the child Feng Xue Sheng?

"Is Feng Hongpu's eighth daughter called Feng Hongpu?"

What are you thinking?" Leng Hong Xiu asked, and Sen Luo immediately understood what Leng Hong Xiu was thinking. His face was filled with shock, and when he recalled the strange and powerful aura of a demon slayer and a human, he couldn't help but begin to suspect that if Feng Hong Xu was indeed a fox demon and a human, then the strange aura coming from her would be completely justified.

Since Dugu Qing Kuang didn't know about the association between Leng Hong Xiu and Sen Luo, he didn't show any particular reaction, and only nodded his head, "That's right, how come you guys didn't know? Didn't you personally go to the Feng Family to look for that Feng Hongpu? But you don't have to worry, just before Feng Hong Dian left, he volunteered to go to the city gate and wait for his weird eighth daughter Feng Hong Xu. In order for us to grant him the rank of a third rank, he is prepared to destroy his family once again, so Leng Hong Xiu, if the personal grudge you mentioned has anything to do with Feng Hong Bi, we are already settling it for you! "

"Another righteous extermination? "Humph, it seems like this Blood Sealing Drink isn't anything good. I don't believe that you will actually grant him the glory and wealth of a third-grade great official!" Leng Hong Xiu sneered, as expected, the most shameless is a human, for benefits, anything can be sacrificed. Wife, what is a daughter?

Just by listening to his evaluation of the Blood Sealing Drink, one could tell that he absolutely did not want a third-grade courtier like him.

"If he is willing to wipe out the Demon Slayer from the other two sects for me and at the same time lead the faction under him to completely submit to me. At the same time, he is willing to abandon the unrealistic ideal of slaying demons and turn the disciples of the other sects into assassins, so what if I grant him a third rank official?" After Dugu Qing Kuang finished speaking, he started to laugh loudly.

After Leng Hong Xiu and Sen Luo heard this, they also sneered incessantly. After a long while, it turned out that Dugu Qing Kuang was actually a Demon Slayer master. This time, things were much easier to handle.

"It seems that the Imperial Jade Seal really does belong to you. Dugu Qing Kuang, your plan is very much to my taste, what you want is power, what I want is the release of hatred, since everyone's final goal is the same, then our cooperation will undoubtedly be very successful and compatible. However, I have a request in the end."

"Tell me, Leng Hong Xiu!"

"On the basis of being equal to the three factions, I want your palace. The two old bastards in the temple. If you agree, then this deal is concluded."

When Dugu Qing Kuang heard this, he could not help but to exclaim out loud, "Leng Hong Xiu, we wish for a happy cooperation!"
