Because of Xiao Ming's co-operation and timely brushing up his favorability, he was finally invited back to the Yaozu by the Scarlet King of the Yaozu with a gesture of courtesy—at least on the surface it was "invited".

Following behind the Red King, Xiao Ming did not make any attempt to resist or escape. After confirming that the Red King was in a good mood because he had fulfilled his wish, he put on a face of a good teacher who was worried about his apprentice, and began to collect information in a roundabout way. Intelligence: "You deliberately launched such a big battle to capture Tianyu back to the Yaozu, what exactly are you going to do?"

The Red King raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a surprised tone, "I am his biological father. What reason does the father need to bring his son back to his own group?"

"Heh, do you think I will believe it?" Xiao Ming sneered, "Although I don't know much about the Yaozu, I also know that the Yaozu is extremely repulsive to half-demons. I don't think Tian Yu is suitable to stay in the Yaozu."

"That's right, the demon race does reject half-demons." Chi Wang glanced sideways at Xiao Ming, and made no secret of his contempt for half-demons. "So, how can my son have human blood flowing in his body?"

"What are you going to do?" Xiao Ming was taken aback, his expression restrained, but the anxiety and worry in his eyes couldn't be suppressed--such subtle mood swings are difficult for ordinary people to detect, but they can't hide from the cunning and scheming man who has lived for a long time. The eyes of the Red King—and this is what Xiao Ming wanted the Red King to see.

Sure enough, seeing Xiao Ming's reaction like this, Chi Wang felt even more satisfied: "You should be able to guess what I'm going to do, shouldn't you? Didn't you go to that Banyao Village for the same purpose?"

Xiao Ming's expression was stiff, and he could hardly contain his rage: "So, you want to use such a dangerous method to remove the human blood in Tianyu?! You know that you will die in such a way, but you have the heart to let your parents and children suffer like this. treat?!"

Xiao Ming's tone became higher and higher, more and more severe, flames seemed to be dancing in his black eyes, and he stared at the face of the Red King with hatred, as if two sharp swords were about to fly out.

Obviously being so offended, the Scarlet King didn't take it as disobedience at all, on the contrary, he showed a little more appreciation: firstly, it was because of his affection for Lu Tianyu; To be able to show such a gesture to him.Involuntarily, Chi Wang wanted to tease the other party even more, to see him break through the appearance of self-denial and show his true emotions unobstructed: "Parent and son? My father and son can never be a dirty half-demon. If he can If he survives and becomes a pure-blooded red-winged bird, I will naturally treat him like a treasure and do my best to cultivate him, but if he fails to survive, then he can't be called my son, and he will die if he dies. "

Xiao Ming's breath froze, and the Scarlet King was obviously more ruthless than he expected, which was not good news for him.

It was just a moment of frustration, and the next breath, the aura around Xiao Ming suddenly exploded.The surging spiritual power of the Nascent Soul Stage unreservedly poured out towards the Scarlet King, with strong anger and killing intent, even the Red King couldn't help but feel a hint of danger, subconsciously raised his hand, and with a stronger momentum, Xiao Ming pressed back.

Xiao Ming's complexion was pale, his temples were sweating profusely, but he gritted his teeth and stared at the Red King. He clearly had some difficulty standing up, but he held on without any sign of weakness.

Chi Wang gave another praise in his heart, and slowly withdrew the coercion on Xiao Ming's body. He couldn't help being a little annoyed that he was amused when he saw the other party being funny, and almost ruined the plan. Naturally, his tone was gentle, and turned to appease: "Okay, the so-called tiger's poison does not eat its children, so don't look at me like scum in this picture. Since I choose to do this, I am sure of it, otherwise it will be an empty joy and a waste of time." Time and energy?"

The Red King took the lead in showing his friendship, and Xiao Ming, who did not intend to tear himself apart, naturally took advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, and frowned suspiciously: "How sure?"

"My red-winged bird is a descendant of the ancient beast Phoenix. Although I can't be reborn like the Phoenix, my blood has a strong healing power. A monster like me has accumulated thousands of years of blood essence It is enough to guarantee his immortality." Chi Wang smiled slightly, "As long as Lu Tianyu has a tough heart and can survive the whole process of removing the blood without collapsing, then I have eight or nine percent chances that he will survive."

The Red King's words did not seem to be false, or in other words, with his current status and cultivation, he probably didn't bother to tell lies.Xiao Ming's expression gradually softened, but he still maintained a sense of worry and hesitation: "Even if we are eight or nine percent sure, there is still danger..."

"Everything is dangerous." Chi Wang took two steps forward, put his hand on Xiao Ming's shoulder as if he were a friend, and his tone was even more intimate, like two familiar elders talking about a caring junior, "Whoever has achieved great things has experienced many hardships and wandered in the gate of hell several times? Tianyu is your disciple, and you should also understand that it is best for him to let him experience life-and-death trials. .”

Xiao Ming was slightly moved, and he praised the Chi Wang's disguise and sophistry in his heart: "After all, he is my only disciple..."

"He is also my only child." Chi Wang looked straight at Xiao Ming with his golden pupils, his eyes were full of seriousness, "The words that he didn't care about his life and death before were actually just testing you. You are a good master, and you are worthy Tianyu trusts you so much, but I don't value him as much as you do."

Xiao Ming didn't believe that the Red King really cared about Lu Tianyu, at least if Lu Tianyu couldn't survive the removal of his blood, he wouldn't be considered his child. This was probably what the Red King really thought—but Xiao Ming made a face-saving gesture of listening with doubts. .

The Scarlet King sighed softly: "Children are very important to the monster clan, especially for the monster clan with ancient blood like us Chiwing Birds, it is God's favor to have one or two offspring in a long life. The winged bird family has been a single lineage for a long time, if the ancient blood is not particularly domineering, able to suppress the rest of the monster blood, otherwise the red winged bird family would have been extinct long ago." After a pause, the red king smiled bitterly, "probably It is because of this domineering that the Dao of Heaven cannot accommodate too many red-winged birds—if it is as expected, Tianyu may be my only heir, how can I not pay attention? Completely extinct?"

The expression and tone of the Scarlet King did not seem to be fake, even Xiao Ming almost believed it - such a single pass is really hard, if it is true, then Lu Tianyu is indeed very important to the Monster Race Scarlet King: "If it is So...then why did you let him live in the human world for nearly a hundred years?"

"I was seriously injured back then, and my sense of evil spirits was severely weakened, and the woman from the Lu family was just pregnant, and her belly was mixed with a human and a demon, so I didn't know that she was pregnant with my heir, and I really didn't expect that a fragile human would actually I can bear the burden of breeding the red-winged bird." The red king looked remorseful, "I didn't know about him until he grew up, worshiped under your sect, and made a name for himself in the cultivation world. Fortunately, The Lu family was greedy by nature, and they hid the fact that he was a half-demon to death, and then you protected me, and finally my son survived."

Hearing what the Scarlet King said, Xiao Ming couldn't help but feel a little happy.Seeing that he and Xiao Ming talked more and more "friendship", the original hostility and vigilance were gradually shaken, and the Scarlet King continued his efforts: "Although it is indeed dangerous to remove the blood of the human race, it is the best choice for Tian Yu." With Xiao Ming's puzzled eyes, the Scarlet King's tone was serious, "Today Yu can maintain the appearance of a human, but because the human aura sent by his mother when he hatched temporarily suppressed the blood of the Red Wing Bird, but as he gradually grows, his cultivation base As it gets stronger and stronger, the blood of the Red Wing Bird will gradually grow stronger, until one day it can no longer be suppressed, and it will show the characteristics of the demon clan like other half-demons, and become a half-human, half-demon appearance——by then No matter how hard you try, it's impossible to keep him safe."

Xiao Ming pursed his lips, although he was a little unwilling, but he couldn't refute.

"He can't stay in the human world, and the monster race is even more dangerous to him. Not only because the monster race rejects the half-demon, but also because——he is my son." The Scarlet King shook his head slightly, "Among the clans in the demon world There are also conflicts and conflicts. I am the Scarlet King of the monster clan, but I am not the only one in the family. There are still countless monsters who want to pull me down and replace me. Then Tian Yu will definitely become a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh. I can’t wait to get rid of it and quickly Only if he successfully removes the human bloodline and becomes a real red-winged bird, not only can his strength increase greatly, but I can also protect him more legitimately, allowing him to grow up safely in the demon world and become the next generation of red king."

Although these are just one-sided remarks of the Red King, Xiao Ming really can't find any loopholes in them.According to the Red King, getting rid of the blood is indeed Lu Tianyu's only way out. If this is the case, Xiao Ming really can't help but want to light a big row of wax on his little apprentice.

Seeing that the balance in Xiao Ming's heart had tilted towards him, the Scarlet King looked heavy, but he was extremely satisfied in his heart: "Although I don't have much contact with Tianyu, I know that he is a very assertive and extremely stubborn child. He treats me very well. Rejection, even hatred, nine times out of ten, he will not listen to what I say, and the only person in the world who can make him compromise is you, the master. So, I hope you can tell him what I said, Let him refrain from ruining his future and way of life because of his disgust and rejection of me."

Xiao Ming closed his eyes and said nothing for a long time, finally he spoke slowly, with a gloomy tone: "I...I need to think carefully."

"Naturally." Chi Wang smiled slightly, and was extraordinarily considerate, "I believe that you will make the best choice for Tian Yu."

As soon as these words fell, Xiao Ming stopped talking and followed silently with a pondering expression on his face. The Scarlet King did not urge him, but just took him to the Yaozu and put him under house arrest for the time being.

Before Xiao Ming let go and became his lobbyist, the Scarlet King would not allow him to meet with Lu Tianyu, and Xiao Ming did not act in a hurry, instead he held back for the time being, wondering if he should trust the demon after he had done enough. The hesitant posture of the clan—after all, the monsters have different paths, and they are still enemies of life and death. It is not appropriate to make a decision too quickly because of emotion and reason.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator, Xiao Ming, who was in the Yaozu, would not be relaxed and comfortable.The cultivator's Golden Elixir, Nascent Soul, and even flesh and blood are great supplements for the Yaozu. He always feels that the surrounding Yaozu look at him like they are looking at a big meal that can walk, and they are extremely salivating.

If it weren't for the death of the Red King, he probably wouldn't be able to see the sun the next day.

Although it is always depressing to be treated as a Chinese meal, Xiao Ming did not show his rejection and hatred for the Yaozu.Firstly, he doesn't have any good or bad ideas about the monster race, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the half-monster Lu Tianyu as his disciple without any hesitation;

Yes, what Xiao Ming is going to play now is a gentleman who is upright, benevolent and kind, who treats all living beings equally in the world.He needs to use such an attitude to soften the defenses of the Yaozu people towards him, gain goodwill, and win the trust of the Scarlet King.

Whether it is a villain or a gentleman, they all like to associate with a gentleman. The gentleman and the gentleman are congenial, and for the villain, the gentleman is the best object to use or even manipulate.Because as long as you know how a gentleman behaves, you can easily use it to guide you, and you will not be as unpredictable and unpredictable as a villain.

Just like a "little man" like Xiao Ming, all the people he can treat and interact with sincerely are gentlemen, such as Xuan Yue, the people of Tianxuan Sect, and Zheng Qiong, his best friend chosen for Lu Tianyu.Therefore, Xiao Ming wants to be such a "gentleman" who can be used with confidence. Once the people around him are at ease, the room for him to operate will be greatly increased, and maybe he will be able to find a glimmer of life.

Fortunately, the two identities of Xiao Ming that the Red King knew had a good reputation with the outside world, he was gentle, friendly and generous; caring for his disciples and relatives, and devoting himself to his master's school, it can be regarded as laying a good foundation for this level of gentleman status.

After staying in the Yaozu for a few days, except for the Yaozu who is particularly contemptuous of humans, the rest of the Yaozu and Xiao Ming can chat occasionally, and they are not panicked or angry when Xiao Ming is so deeply trapped in the enemy's camp The non-flattering performance is also very interesting.

Xiao Ming was not like the human cultivators they had seen or heard about who would yell at the monsters at every turn, as if their hatred was irreconcilable. Good is good, evil is evil, regardless of human beings or demons.

Those who were able to wander around the territory of the Red King and come into contact with Xiao Ming were basically the Red King's cronies, and naturally they had heard a little about Xiao Ming's love and concern for his half-demon disciple.Although most of the monster clans look down on half-monsters, Xiao Ming's behavior is quite to their liking - even if they don't like it, they won't hate it either.

Both humans and monsters have curiosity, just like most human beings don't know what the monster race looks like, the monster race also has great curiosity about the human world.By occasionally describing the situation in the human world to the curious monsters, Xiao Ming, who wears the red king's gold medal for avoiding death, is doing well among the monsters, and has also heard a lot of news about the monsters.

After having a rough idea in his mind, Xiao Ming finally let go, and expressed to the Red King that he hoped to meet Lu Tianyu and persuade him to accept the Red King's suggestion of removing the blood.

Hearing Xiao Ming's message, the Scarlet King was naturally overjoyed—he was really exhausted by Lu Tianyu during this period of time. The cage where Yaozu imprisoned him was tossed in a mess, and many guards were injured.

Now that Xiao Ming is finally willing to come forward, that would be the best.

Although he wished to throw Xiao Ming to deal with Lu Tianyu immediately, the Scarlet King still cautiously met him first and judged Xiao Ming's attitude in person.

In the eyes of Chi Wang, who has lived for nearly a thousand years, Xiao Ming, who is only a hundred years old, is just a young child. Although he is good at forbearance, he can see through it just by looking at him, and he can't hide what he thinks from his eyes.It's a pity that the Scarlet King doesn't know that sometimes, age has nothing to do with being good at disguising. Although Xiao Ming's life is short, the dangers he has experienced are definitely not comparable to the Scarlet King who is the proud son of heaven and has almost a smooth life. .So even if they were face to face, the Scarlet King would not be able to see through Xiao Ming's modest and gentlemanly face as light as water.

"It's not that I don't believe in Fellow Daoist Xiao, it's just that it's about my son, so I have to be careful." Chi Wang took Xiao Ming to the courtyard where Lu Tianyu was detained, and asked in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Xiao has been thinking about it for the past few days. Figured it out, are you willing to help me persuade Tianyu?"

"I'm not trying to persuade Tian Yu, I'm just passing on your thoughts to him." Xiao Ming put on a square face, and corrected, "As for Tian Yu's choice, that's his own business, and I won't interfere He——I believe that Tianyu can be responsible for his choice."

Chi Wang nodded with a smile, not worried about Xiao Ming's words at all - as long as the other party can relay what he persuaded him, then Lu Tianyu will naturally agree with this statement.

"As for why...that's because of the monster races I've come into contact with these days." Xiao Ming pursed his lips, his expression calm.

He knew that he would never be able to hide his scouting activities from the Scarlet King during this period of time, and he had no intention of hiding anything.Rather than concealing it to make people suspicious, it is better to say it openly, and take the opportunity to find a reasonable explanation: "I don't know much about the Yaozu. What I heard from the teacher before is that the Yaozu is vicious, cruel and tyrannical. Description, naturally I will not easily believe your words, and make a hasty decision." After a pause, Xiao Ming's expression softened slightly, "But after this period of contact, I found that the Yaozu is not as unreasonable as the rumors, You also have a kind side, and your concern for your children is even more touching. I... I am willing to try to believe in your kind father's heart-if I mistakenly believe in evil people and harm Tianyu, I will naturally fight with my life. Keep him safe."

Xiao Ming looked at the Red King with burning eyes, full of determination.The Scarlet King was slightly startled, and his golden pupils softened involuntarily.He raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Don't worry, you won't trust the wrong person. If I harm anyone, I won't harm my own child."

Xiao Ming nodded, he seemed to relax a little, but his disdain became more and more in his heart.It is reckoned that Xuan Yue's second senior brother, Xuan Ke, was fooled by this cunning Chi Wang, and ended up in the present field.

It has to be said that being watched so sincerely and tenderly by such a handsome man as the Red King would make anyone dizzy and unable to tell the difference between south, east and north, and it is not wrong for Xuan Ke to be deceived so badly.

With such complaints in his heart, Xiao Ming, who consciously brushed the Chi King's favorability degree again, planned to brush up the gentleman value again.He hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "This time the monster clan attacked the barrier and invaded the human world, is it because you discovered the existence of Tian Yu and wanted to take him back?"

"That's just one of the reasons." The Red King didn't hide anything, and replied openly, "The battle between humans and monsters must be staged every once in a while. The abundance of materials in the human world has been coveted for a long time. One of the battles between the monsters is to allow the monsters to develop better and seize resources, the second is to exercise the fighting power and cohesion of the monsters, and the third is to consume most of the breeding process. Fast low-level monster races, to make room for the birth and growth of new monster races." Looking sideways at Xiao Ming, Chi Wang said softly, "I know you don't like killing, and you don't want to see the human and demon worlds burn to death. , but this is the fate of survival of the fittest.”

Xiao Ming's expression was slightly dark, and he nodded lightly: "The sky is unkind, and treats everything as a dog."

"So whether it is a demon cultivator or a human cultivator, it is against the sky." The Red King smiled sassyly, high-spirited, "The winner is the king and the loser is a bandit. There are only a few who can reach the top, and most of them just become the footsteps of the winner. There are many bones, and you don't need to be sad about it."

Xiao Ming who was "sad" remained silent - in fact, he didn't care, as long as the person he cared about was fine, he didn't bother to care about the rest.

"Of course, although it is the general trend, there is indeed a reason for Tianyu." Seeing Xiao Ming's depression, Chi Wang changed the subject and immediately drew Xiao Ming's attention back, "Because I know Tianyu's existence, I am worried about him. Once the identity of the half-demon is exposed, it will be dangerous, so this invasion was catalyzed in advance. Only when the monsters gather to break the barrier with all their strength, can I go to the human world and take the opportunity to bring Tianyu back."

Xiao Ming nodded clearly: "Now that Tianyu is already in the Yaozu, when will this chaos end?"

The Scarlet King was speechless for a moment, he really didn't want to discuss such a topic with such a "compassionate" Xiao Ming, so he simply raised his hand and pointed: "Tian Yu lives there."

It was just a casual brushing of "Gentleman's Pose", and Xiao Ming, who was also too lazy to discuss this, immediately looked in the direction Chi Wang was pointing at, following people with kindness.The battle of demons was forgotten.

Chi Wang: Getting along with this Xiao Ming is really comfortable and annoying ←_← Xiao Ming: I finally finished brushing up, this gentleman’s goose bumps are about to pop out of me →_→
