In the capital of the Rock Empire, in a dim room belonging to the Ministry of Magicians, an old man paced back and forth anxiously.

His eyes kept looking at the closed door, as if he was waiting for something.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. The old man hurried to the door, opened it, and saw his guards standing outside.

"Do you understand clearly?" the old man asked.

His guard nodded, then shook his head.

"What do you mean?" the old man was anxious.

"Master, calm down. I have found out that the young master was not kidnapped by the bandits he used as an excuse to hunt down. I have just eliminated them all. The female bandit leader has also been tortured and interrogated. It is confirmed that they did not do it, and I have also crushed them into pieces."

"so what?"

"It's not the military, and it's certainly not our Ministry of Magic."

"The royal family, or the Rongfahe Empire?" the old man suddenly asked in a low voice.

"It's possible, but it's also impossible. Right now, the royal family is making a desperate effort and it's unlikely that they will attack their own people. However, you have been reluctant to absorb the demon seed into your body. This may be a way for the Rongfahe Empire to warn you."

The old man was the true pillar of the Rock Empire, a seventh-rank magician. Because he was obsessed with cultivation, he did not accept the abdication of his father, the previous king, and instead let his younger brother inherit the throne.

He was also smart enough to draw a clear line between himself and the royal family to avoid putting his younger brother in a difficult position.

Of course, his power and status were once supreme in the Rock Empire.

Until recently, the Rongfahe Empire brought in monsters and took away fifth- and sixth-level magicians for training.

The so-called training is to fuse the demon species into the magician's body and force them to upgrade to the next level!

This is an act against heaven, and the price paid is also against heaven!

That is a gradual loss of consciousness and a drastic shortening of lifespan.

They also fused another kind of demon into the vast majority of the magic guards, which had a similar effect and would make people fight to the death.

It simply cannot be used on ordinary people, as they simply cannot integrate and the only way out is death.

At present, many magicians and guards have died suddenly.

Naturally, Mage Tao also received a demon seed, but he was not forced to fuse it.

He was hesitating. After the fusion, he would undoubtedly have the possibility of breaking through to the eighth level, but the backlash would be even greater.

He was afraid that he would die suddenly.

But it was precisely this hesitation of his that greatly reduced his status in the Rock Empire in just a few months.

After all, there are many more sixth- and seventh-level people, and they will definitely strive to maximize the benefits for their families in their short lives.

The news of the annihilation of the entire army at the front line has also arrived. Originally, they should have planned to capture Yunluo City even at the cost of the annihilation of the entire army, and rely on Yunluo City to check and balance the army of the Night Fae Empire, but they failed to achieve the set goal.

So some people pointed the finger at him, saying that he did not dare to sacrifice for the empire. If he was promoted to the eighth-rank grand mage this time, Yunluo City would naturally be no problem, and he could also gain greater benefits in the Rongfahe Empire, and it might even be possible to expand the territory of the Rock Empire towards the Fae Night Empire.

But Mage Tao is still at level seven.

Mage Tao felt threatened. He also had a premonition that even if the Stone Empire won and gained a large area of ​​the Fae Night Empire's land, after their group of mages were killed one after another, who could still defend these lands? In the eyes of the Rongfahe Empire, was the Stone Empire still valuable?

Will the Rock Empire be directly replaced by another small country?

But no one spoke for him.

So he prepared for a rainy day and wanted his youngest son, who was the most talented, to escape to another small country under the pretext of suppressing bandits, thus leaving a chance for the Tao family.

Who would have thought that he was kidnapped now.

This is probably the pressure put on him by the royal family or the French nuclear empire.

"You are going too far. I just want to leave a descendant for the Tao family. Is this idea not allowed? I want to show you that my Tao family is not to be messed with. Go and inform those priests who didn't go to the front line to support, and go with me to the canyon in the Monster Forest tomorrow morning. I want to show them that an old dog also has a few teeth!"

Monster Forest, top of the canyon.

Xiaojiu, Cen Zhi and Xu Haoran were sitting by the fire, next to them was the bound but soundly sleeping magician Tao.

Shi Feng was lying next to Magician Tao, next to the man named Tao, and was also asleep.

But if you look closely, you can see that Shi Feng's expression looks a bit painful.

"Senior Sister Haoran, do you think Xiaoxian will marry Xiaojiu?" Cen Zhi asked.

Xu Haoran smiled and said, "Xiao Jiu has been with him for so many years. If he doesn't marry Xiao Jiu, I will kick him out."

Xiao Jiu still said calmly: "I am the young master's magic guard. I will be very happy to serve the young master for the rest of my life. Besides, magicians rarely marry magic guards. This is unreasonable."

"Oh, Sister Xiaojiu, do you think Xiaoxian has ever done things according to common sense? If you ask me, given that pervert Qin Xiaoxian is, Sister Haoran and Sister Xiaojiu must have been married together." Cen Zhi laughed.

"You're not going to marry you, right?" Xu Haoran teased.

Cen Zhi's face flushed immediately: "Pah, pah, pah, who would want to marry him? Only a stinky pig would marry him!"

But after saying this, he saw Xiao Jiu's calm eyes looking at him briefly. Cen Zhi then realized that he had said the wrong thing, and said "Pooh, Pooh" a few times: "I was talking about myself. What I meant was that he would not marry a stupid and foolish fire magician like me who can't even cook."

"Do you feel that Junior Brother Xiaoxian has always kept his heart closed? What he shows is the impression he deliberately leaves on others." Xu Haoran sighed.

"The young master experienced too much in his childhood. He went from a genius boy to a useless wizard. He went from being the son of Qin Mei, the mage of the Empire Star, to being a stain on the Empire Star. He was also the lady's illegitimate son. These things weighed on his heart for so many years and he was very miserable. Later, he was killed once, and when he came back to life, he was like a different person. They all said that a soul had deprived the young master of his body, but I know that this was just the young master's determination to live a different way." Xiao Jiu looked into the distance and said slowly.

Cen Zhi and Xu Haoran were both silent.

They had also heard about Qin Xiaoxian's past.

But no matter what, they could not connect those past events with the present, Qin Xiaoxian, who could be said to be an unprecedented genius.

"There's nothing wrong with marrying him. I just want to be with you two. Xiaojiu and Haoran, you two will be the elder ones, and I will be the concubine." Cen Zhi said with a carefree smile.

"You are a magician, you should be the legal wife." Xiaojiu remained calm.

"That's all in the past!"

"Sister Cen Zhi, what are you thinking about?" Xu Haoran laughed dumbly and took out a copy of the "Equal Treaty". "You wrote it. Meda City practices monogamy."

"Ah? Oh, yes, what should we do?" Cen Zhi jumped up suddenly. Only then did she remember that this was one of the laws and regulations she had formulated.

Xu Haoran burst into laughter, and Xiaojiu also couldn't help laughing, which was rare.

"You two are still laughing!" Cen Zhi was really anxious.

"I said, I will just accompany the young master and serve him." Xiao Jiu said with a smile.

"I do like him, but liking him doesn't necessarily mean I have to marry him." Xu Haoran also smiled and added, "You two are more compatible."

At this moment, suddenly a murderous intent approached here rapidly from a very far distance.

Xiaojiu and Cen Zhi were the first to stand up.

Xu Haoran then picked up the sledgehammer and looked into the distance.
