This was the first time that Sang Nuo and his fiancé met his future "in-law's family", but seven days passed, and his in-laws did not see each other, and even Fan Hao went out to fight.

Can the marriage between the heavenly and demon realms really stop the war?

Not yet married, San Nuo has already begun to guard the empty house alone, perhaps it should be called the empty castle alone.

The remaining people in the castle can hardly be called human beings.

They are slaves, without mind, without ego.

Even the maids in the mortal court would chat with their masters to entertain their boredom, but the servants in the devil world would only obey orders.

There are four maids serving Sannuo, and there are six handymen, two of which are boys under the age of 13, skinny and skinny, their skin is tanned by the scorching desert sun, but their eyes are still bright, like a castle The sparkling crescent spring water outside.

Sang Nuo asked one of the boys, "Is there a war outside? When will Fan Hao come back?"

Of course, she didn't miss her fiancé, but she didn't know the place well. She wanted to know if she was safe, so she could only ask for news from her fiancé.

The boy didn't answer, bowed to her, turned and walked out the door, out of the castle.

"What is he going to do?" Sanno asked the maid in surprise.

"Inquire about the news for the master." The maid replied with a low eyebrow.

In the evening, the boy came back, and he reported to Sang Nuo that Zhong Shan's Zhu Yinglong was attacking the city, and the sixth master and his two elder brothers took turns to defend the city, and the date of return was uncertain.

Liu Ye was talking about Fan Hao.

Sang Nuo opened her eyes wide, wondering if it was the news that "Zhu Yinglong is attacking the city" that surprised her more, or the boy's bleeding left hand made her more frightened.

"Your hand..." San Nuo asked tremblingly, "Where are your fingers?"

"It was chopped off just now." The boy replied without emotion.

His left hand, ring finger and little finger were all missing. The incision of the severed finger was turned out with blood and flesh, and the middle was white bone.

Sang Nuo said in shock: "Why did you cut off your finger!"

"Little one was ordered to stay in the castle to serve you. This is punishment for going out without permission." The boy replied blankly, as if he didn't feel any pain, only his pale lips showed his weakness.

"My God... I just asked casually, you should tell me you can't go out!" San Nuo got up, bent over and grabbed the boy's hand, "Where's your finger? Is there a healer here? Maybe you can still take it." superior."

If Aunt Mei is here, it must be possible.

But the boy said that the finger was thrown to the hounds by the executioner and eaten.

"I want to leave here...I'll take you with me!" For the first time, San Nuo felt the fear and loathing of this place. She had never been to hell, but it was probably not as cruel as this place.

No one responded.

The servants here have neither joy nor despair, they are like walking dead who only follow orders and do not seek relief.

Sang Nuo was terrified. She wanted to go back to Qingqiu Mountain, but she even started to imagine that Zhong Shan's little venerable was here for her.

Fantasizing Jiang Xueshi as her own hero will restore her hope.

She wanted to know how many heavenly soldiers her hero brought to attack the city, but she didn't dare to ask the followers anymore, so she asked the guard of the castle to go out to find out the military situation by herself.

The guard said that unless the war spread to this place, he would never let Sanno step into the flames of war before he died.

It's a place full of death and despair.

Sang Nuo suddenly understood why the Emperor of Heaven never gave up his determination to eradicate the demon world after thousands of years.

Another three days passed in panic.

In the evening of this day, San Nuo heard rumbling noises coming from outside the window, so he walked quickly to the observation deck——

The suspension bridge over the moat slowly descended, and San Nuo looked far into the distance, and the black soldiers and horses were stepping on the suspension bridge to return to the city.

Among the leading generals was a familiar figure, who should be her fiancé.

Sang Nuo straightened his hair a little, and rushed downstairs to greet him.

When the gate of the castle opened with a bang, her fiancé was not at the front, but a figure covered in blood.

The man's hands were tied behind his back with dragon ropes, and there was dried black blood on his cheeks and the bridge of his nose, but it didn't hinder her beauty.

In the evening, the castle hadn't been lit up yet, and the long and narrow phoenix eyes, like melting gold, locked onto San Nuo at first glance, shining brightly in the darkness.

The moment they looked at Sonuo, the hostility in those eyes suddenly softened.

This is Sonor's own hero in fantasy.

"Your Majesty..." San Nuo's lips moved, his mind went blank.

She thought that her hero might be defeated, but not that she would be captured alive.

It's not true that no one can catch Zhu Yinglong!

Looking down slowly, he found that the white clothes were almost dyed dark red at this moment.

San Nuo felt a stabbing pain in his heart, and his clenched fists kept shaking, but he still couldn't stop the tears from pouring out of his eyes.

"It's not my blood." Jiang Xue didn't make a sound, but only mouthed to Sang Nuo, and then curled up the corner of her mouth, there was no trace of defeat in her smile.

It was Fan Hao's elder brother who escorted her. He pushed Jiang Xueshi's left shoulder hard, making her turn around and walk to the military aircraft hall.

Sang Nuo quickly followed up, Jiang Xueshi glanced at her sideways, the eyes lacked meaning, neither happy nor sad.

Sang Nuo was stopped by the guards and left while watching Jiang Xue off.

-

The Devil Emperor waved his sons to retreat, and the gate of the Military Aircraft Hall was slowly closed.

There was a muffled bang, and there were only two people left in the hall.

They looked at each other silently.

There was an elusive smile in those pale golden eyes.

There was vigilance in the devil emperor's green pupils.

In the end, he stepped forward, walked around behind Jiang Xue, and quietly loosened the dragon rope.

After untying Jiang Xueshi, the Devil Emperor turned around, walked slowly to the tea table and sat down, and opened a white jade teacup.Putting it in front of him, he picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water.

Jiang Xueshi took two steps forward with her long legs, glanced sideways at the seat on the other side of the coffee table, and asked him, "Is it okay? Your Majesty."

The Devil Emperor cast a glance at her, his eyes were still vigilant and murderous.

Jiang Xueshi met his gaze, stepped forward and sat on the other side of the tea table, and poured herself a cup of tea without any notice.

The two drank in silence.

After a while of silence, the Devil Emperor spoke first: "What exactly do you want to do?"

Jiang Xueshi was playing with a small white jade teacup in her hand, her long eyelashes drooped slightly, and she replied softly: "The Emperor of Heaven sent me to eradicate you."

"Hmph." The Demon Emperor said coldly, "I have negotiated a marriage marriage with him, and he agreed in front of the gods, and even betrothed the Queen Mother's daughter to my son, so how could he go back on his word?"

Jiang Xueshi pursed her lips and said politely, "The Queen Mother's daughter is mine."

The Devil Emperor frowned: "There are many beauties in this world, why do you..."

Jiang Xueshi raised her hand to stop his chattering, "Your Majesty must clarify the key issues first."

"What's the problem?" the Demon Emperor asked.

"Why did the Emperor of Heaven marry my woman to your son?"

The Demon Emperor frowned and said: "That girl is the adopted daughter of the Queen Mother, in order to show her sincerity..."

"It's just on the surface." Jiang Xueshi said: "The existence of the Three Realms is the arrangement of heaven. You have been declining day by day in the past hundred years. Once you take the initiative to seek peace, the emperor of heaven cannot but agree, but he doesn't want to let go of this good opportunity to eradicate you. Start the war from the beginning."

The Devil Emperor was taken aback, and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, why pretend not to understand?" Jiang Xueshi smiled: "Then let me clarify. In other words, the Emperor of Heaven tricked me to eradicate you."

The Devil Emperor slowly closed his eyes, and for the first time, the face of this battle-tested old man showed exhaustion.

Yes, he knew it a long time ago, but he was just lucky, thinking that Zhu Yinglong would not start a war for a woman.

"Since you know it too." The Devil Emperor said in a deep voice, "Why are you still willing to be his pawn?"

Jiang Xueshi smiled wryly: "Aren't you the same? Your Majesty and I are the fish on his old man's chopping board. He wants to eradicate us, all he wants is a famous teacher. If he fails this time, he will always find a reason next time."

The Demon Emperor smiled wryly: "Do you want to take this opportunity to eradicate the Demon Realm, make great contributions, and keep yourself safe for a while?"

"Then I won't sit here and chat with His Majesty." Jiang Xue looked at him firmly.

The devil emperor sneered: "You don't mean to say that you want to betray justice, step into the devil's way from now on, and stand side by side with the widow against the old man of the emperor of heaven, right?"

"Justice? The heavens represent justice?" Jiang Xue smiled: "I haven't seen a few gods who are truly compassionate. Can the demon world represent evil? Your Majesty, you follow the law of survival of the fittest, create powerful individuals, and push the limit of evolution, but It ignores the economic development at the grassroots level and chases after the end, so it will never be possible to build a huge operating system.”

The Devil Emperor's eyes turned cold: "I don't need a young milk dragon to teach me how to govern the Demon Realm."

"Don't dare." Jiang Xue raised his eyebrows and said: "I just want to explain that our heavenly protection of the weak is not for justice, but it is not the same as your development model. If we don't protect the sheep at the bottom, who else can our respected emperor exploit? To consolidate his upper-level resources? The reason why he regained his reputation is just to trick the sheep into willingly working hard."

The Devil Emperor's eyes lit up, and he sneered and said, "Our Zhong Shan's heir doesn't seem like a kind person. This kind of morality seems to be more suitable to be thrown into the widow's sect."

Jiang Xueshi smiled charmingly, and said gracefully: "Morality is a tool, not my code of conduct. To see long-term benefits, you must promote collective interests instead of blindly sympathizing with others. So most good people in this world are not rewarded, but they are smart. But short-sighted people can't achieve great things, if you give me a chance, the path I choose will be closer to the Emperor of Heaven, not Your Majesty."

The Demon Emperor snorted coldly, and turned his head away: "Differences do not conspire with each other, since you don't want to help me, what's the use of telling me these things?"

"I don't want to assist you, Your Majesty." Jiang Xueshi said, "But I want to protect myself, so I must protect you."

The Devil Emperor looked at her sideways: "What do you mean?"

Jiang Xueshi said: "I am the key to your check and balance against the Emperor of Heaven."

"how do I say this?"

"Once you and I are united, we will no longer be fish on the chopping board of the Emperor of Heaven."

The Demon Emperor sighed: "Now that the Demon Realm is in decline, even with your assistance, it may not be possible to fight the old man of the Heavenly Emperor."

"I have a way."

The Devil Emperor opened his eyes wide: "Please tell me."

"Give me 9000 years of cultivation, and I will be able to form a tripartite confrontation."

The Devil Emperor was taken aback, staring at Jiang Xue for a long time without saying a word.

After a while of silence, he suddenly laughed, "You are a smart grab! Zhongshan's bloodline is indeed full of talents. Jiang Ziya, who has seen Xingzhou for 800 years, thought that no one in the country could surpass him. Now I see you , presumably the Three Realms will eventually belong to Zhong Shan's lineage!"

As for the 9000 years of cultivation, it's not that the heavens can't make it together, but when they openly stand in line with Jiang Xue, then there is no way out, and there is no other fighting power behind them. Naturally, no one of the gods dared to make this bet.

The Demon Realm is different, because there is no way out, and the Heavenly Emperor will eradicate the Demon Realm sooner or later. Once Jiang Xue is supported, together with the combat power of the entire Demon Realm, it really becomes a tripartite confrontation.

Once the two are united, the Heavenly Emperor will completely lose his dominance.

"How do I know if you will become the next Eastern Emperor Taiyi?"

"I've said it before," Jiang Xueshi said solemnly, "I don't see absolute justice and evil in my eyes, and I know the meaning of the Dao of Heaven's existence in the Demon Realm, so I won't be like his old man, wanting to replace the Dao of Heaven to control everything."

The Devil Emperor pondered for a moment, then sighed: "Let me think about it, you stay here first."

"No." Jiang Xueshi said: "I live in a dungeon, Your Majesty, please continue to send troops to the capital, so that the Heavenly Emperor's spies think we are still fighting fiercely."

"That's no problem." The Devil Emperor wondered, "Why do you want to live in a dungeon?"

Jiang Xueshi shrugged: "Your daughter-in-law-to-be should come to rescue me tonight and let her in."

The Devil Emperor raised his chin, pretending to be displeased: "You also know that she is my prospective daughter-in-law?"

"Not after tonight."

The Demon Emperor raised his eyebrows provocatively: "If you are locked in a dungeon, maybe she loves my son and the status of Mrs. Demon Realm more than a prisoner. All vixens in the world will choose that."

"No." Jiang Xueshi raised the corners of her mouth: "She will find that these are not important to me."

The Demon Emperor sneered: "Our future little Heavenly Emperor is quite modest."

Jiang Xueshi smiled gracefully: "Just tell the truth."

The Devil Emperor curled his lips: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed, no woman would be so stupid as to give up her position and desperately rescue a prisoner in a dungeon in the Demon Realm."
