There was a place called the Bright Moon Pavilion at the outskirts of the Qi Kingdom Palace.
This place was specially used by the Lord of Qi Kingdom to entertain some distinguished guests – it was one level higher than the relay stations within the capital.
Two days ago, Young Master Luo had already arrived at the borders of the Qi Kingdom. On the first day, he did not immediately pay respects to the Lord of Qi Kingdom, but instead openly ate and drank in the capital city for the entire day.
The next day, he handed in his name card and waited for the summons.
However, the king of the Qi Kingdom did not call him, and the reason was obviously because the nation was very busy today and did not have a free time.
According to the facts, the king of the nation of Qi Kingdom was free that day, but the reason he did not come was that he knew who the Young Master Luo was for — the only person that could move him was the Demon Suppressing King.
On the second day after Qi Mingya provoked the Demon Suppressing King because of a pill formula, he received a message from the Deacon Ge.
He was very angry.
Angry, Mingya this sister doesn't understand things, also angry Demon Suppressing King for a woman and Mingya completely disfigured face.
All these years, Mingya had actually committed a lot of heinous acts, but Demon Suppressing King never asked anything. Even if Mingya kept suppressing her Cloud Sea Division to vent her anger and frustration, he never minded it.
Therefore, Qi Mingxuan believed that Demon Suppressing King wanted to compensate his little sister in his heart, so she ignored him because he believed in her.
However, who would have thought that he would be so angry over a little girl that he would actually use his friendship with her as a price in front of his little sister!
This was an extremely serious matter.
That year, he and Yan Mo had agreed to a pact, which was why he used the power he had allocated to them to give a response from the other nations, to cooperate with him to kill off the demon race.
Of course, because of Yan Mo's suggestion, his schemes, and even his great assistance, he successfully turned Qi Kingdom into the greatest powerful nation!
According to his plan, the next step was to annex all of them and turn them into Qi Kingdom, so as to unify the mountains and rivers.
But Yan Mo, who had become the Demon Suppressing King, was against it!
He said that if you wanted to unite the whole mountain and river, even if it was realized, it would be because the internal conflict was too great and you would not be able to fight.
He also said that the best way was to occupy the center of the country, making it a rich and powerful country.
Thus, the final result of his development was that his Qi Kingdom would be centered while the other three nations would guard their territories.
Because Qi Kingdom could be said to be the closest to the sea, the amount of attacks received by the demons was also the least! The strong and the rich lived a comfortable life in a natural state, but because of the invasion of the demon race in other countries, they lived in extreme poverty and needed his Qi Kingdom to assist them.
In this way, the Qi Kingdom was indeed above that of the other nations and had the bearing of a Son of Heaven. It was as if all the other nations were equal to the rest of the nations.
When Demon Suppressing King rejected the idea of marrying Qi Mingya to him, and made his declaration in front of everyone, he understood that Demon Suppressing King was not the real Son of Heaven.
There was still one person in this world who could say no to him and not give him any face at all!
With such a mood, if he were to once again examine his own gains, his heart would feel very unbalanced and uncomfortable.
Because, he realized that he wasn't really a victor, the king of a powerful nation, but more like a position that Yan Mo had designed for him — an economic pillar!
He was like a wealthy landlord, relying on giving gold and silver to his concubines in exchange for their loyalty to him!
They seemed to live a difficult life, and needed to look at their own eyes. However, their years of fighting with the demon race had actually caused their soldiers' fighting strength to completely surpass their own Qi Kingdom!
In other words, if the three Kingdoms didn't act against him, he would be a powerful and wealthy country. But if the three kingdoms joined forces, he would be a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered!
How could this result make him feel comfortable?
He understood that he had become the chess piece of the Demon Suppressing King, if not why would the Demon Suppressing King, who was now at the same level as the kings of other countries, be so high and mighty against every single one of the country's lords?
It was as if he was the master of this world!
The reality was so scary and cruel, of course Qi Mingxuan would not accept the creation of this role.
He made his move.
He first nurtured a few sects with great effort, just like how he had to create Lingxiao Pavilion. He wanted to win over and nurture talents for the Qi Kingdom!
Secondly, he started to use the border areas where he met the demon clan sea to train his troops. He wanted to strengthen his combat army.
But is that enough?
Of course not!
He had married all the princesses of Qi Kingdom into various countries, and not only had they become witnesses to prove the ties of the various nations, they had also become the lines of control in his hands!
He used them as informants to gather information, spread it around, and used them to incite rumors. He bribed officials to manipulate court politics.
Thus, the Lord of Chao Guo was successfully incited and bewitched in the line he had set up. He began to suspect that the Demon Suppressing King was trying to rob him of his mountains and rivers!
What a ridiculous thought: a single person's power is so great that he can rule over four countries, how can he covet the imperial power of a mere country?
Yet, such a ridiculous idea had caused the Lord of Chao Guo to be troubled incessantly — Which king did not care about their own imperial power?
Furthermore, he had painstakingly set up trap after trap of rumors, making the Sovereign of Chao Guo believe that the Demon Suppressing King was planning to eat every nation!
All these years, he had been playing with the power of the Demon Suppressing King, seizing power in the air. The strong armies under the Demon Suppressing King's command had all sorts of changes and were thrown away.
This time, he had a taste of turning over her hand in the rain, but at this critical moment, Qi Mingya was made a fool of by the Demon Suppressing King, so he naturally did not feel any pain in his heart — — in the end, there was still someone who looked down on him extremely!
Therefore, when Young Master Luo came to the Qi Kingdom, he knew that the Demon Suppressing King had sent him to talk or call him a warning.
That was why he had abandoned him. Furthermore, when there was a coup in Chao Guo, he believed that the Demon Suppressing King was only venting his anger unhappily, and was seizing control of the borders.
A mysterious person had found her and told her that her life was coming to an end. He even asked her to bring a gift back to him.
The present was a human skin mask. He didn't feel anything when he initially took the mask away from her. However, when he put that mask on a person's face and looked at the mask's appearance, he realized that the meaning behind the mask and the price it paid wouldn't be small.
He told himself to be careful and rational, because at this time, he wasn't strong enough. It wasn't the time to go against the Demon Suppressing King, but the obituary had come.
Ming Zhi was dead, and along with her were the rest of Qi Kingdom's imperial concubines and ministers.
Of course, the message that the Chao Guo had sent to the various nations now was definitely that the ruler of the Qi Kingdom had passed away, and the concubine of a great official had died in deep love.
But this was the intention of the Demon Suppressing King to make the first move on him, which made him panic in his heart — he really did not have confidence that he could kill Yan Mo!
Therefore, right now, he could only personally come to the Bright Moon Pavilion to see the Young Master Luo and indicate that he was a subordinate that had lowered his head …
