The palace hall of the Lotus Kingdom.
“Your Majesty, there is bad news! Prince Li Kan's soul jade has been destroyed.”
The old man guard of the soul jade hall of the Lotus Kingdom family reported to King Li Rui about the destruction of the soul jade belonging to Prince Li Kan, the seventh Prince of the Lotus Kingdom.
The destruction of the soul jade belonged to Prince Li Kan, indicating that the Prince's figure had met its end, but from the shattered soul jade fragments it could not be revealed who had killed the Prince.
Meanwhile, King Li Rui who heard bad news about Prince Li Kan, somehow he did not feel sad at all and only felt a little lost because after all he was his son.
While those who saw King Li Rui looked mediocre with the news of Prince Li Kan's death, they did not feel strange.
During the life of Prince Li Kan was a Prince figure who often made chaos in the Lotus Kingdom region. In fact, he had often experienced attempted murder because of the grudges of those he was attached to.
However, so far no one has managed to kill Prince Li Kan, the worst ever Prince Li Kan critically but his life still managed to be saved.
King Li Rui's eyes flashed sharply, he set his sights on his trusted General.
“Find the body, and if possible find out who killed him! For the punishment of the man who killed him, let me decide the punishment for him myself!” king Li Rui.
Receiving the order, the Royal General immediately nodded his head, and accompanied by dozens of Royal soldiers he rushed off to look for the body of Prince Li Kan, as well as find out who had killed the Prince.
While the Lotus Kingdom palace was being shocked by the death of Prince Li Kan, in the center of the crowd of the Lotus Kingdom's capital city the small group of Zhou Tian was enjoying a slightly more bustling crowd compared to Demon City.
The four of them had disguised themselves as humans in general, and there was no way anyone would know of their disguise unless there was a Saint realm cultivator in the capital of the Lotus Kingdom.
“This city is more crowded than Demonic City, but I am sure soon Demon City will be much more crowded than this city.” Zhu Ying saw the increase in the population of Demon City and Demon Village, with the number of demons coming every day, the next month or two he was sure that Demon City would be as crowded as the capital of the Lotus Kingdom.
“Devil City and Demon Village will become more crowded with time, and it is not possible in the future we can establish a Demon Kingdom in this Continent,” Zhou Tian said.
“A Devil Kingdom? If it really materializes, it is very good for the future of the demon race in this Continent,” Zhou Gang said.
“I agree.” Zhu Rong nodded in agreement with Zhou Gang's remark.
Hearing the response of the two companions who had now become his brothers, Zhou Tian smiled happily, then he spoke, “In the future the Demon Kingdom must be standing firmly in this Continent, and we just need time to make it all happen.”
“For now we should go to the palace of the Lotus Kingdom and see what exactly the wishes of King Li Rui who suddenly invited us!” All nodded hearing Zhou Tian's words, then they together went to the Lotus Kingdom palace.
...----------------...
The news of Prince Li Kan's death is still hotly discussed in the Lotus Kingdom palace.
In the special room welcoming Royal guests, King Li Rui who recently ended the meeting in the palace hall, was now accompanying the Royal guests who came from the Eastern Continent.
“Mr and Miss, sorry if I came to see you guys late! I just heard the news of the death of one of my sons, and I have to take care of some matters related to his death,”, King Li Rui told two figures before him.
“Your Majesty the King does not need to apologize because we have also heard the news of Prince Li Kan's death from the servants,” Mo Xin, the figure of the red-robed man.
“If needed, we are willing to help His Majesty find the murderous figure of Prince Li Kan,” continued Mo Zhi, the woman dressed in all-red clothes was slightly lacking in materials so that some parts of her body were clearly visible to King Li Rui.
“Master and Miss are guests of my Kingdom, so there's no way I'm asking you to help with any problems my people can solve! We'd better focus on the purpose of Mr and Miss's arrival. Honestly, I am still curious about the purpose of Master and Miss who wants to meet the important people of the demon race in this Continent.”
King Li Rui already knew that the purpose of his guest was to meet the important people of the demon race, but he still did not know what they wanted to do once they met Zhou Tian and the others.
“Your Majesty should have known that we are also from the demon race!” Hearing him King Li Rui nodded. “We came here as representatives of the Demon King of the Eastern Continent, came looking for the right figure as his Empress candidate,” Mo Xin said.
From the beginning of meeting King Li Rui knew his guests were also from the demon race, and who did not know the figure of the Demon King of the Eastern Continent? The strength of the Demon King of the Eastern Continent had spread throughout the entire Mortal Realm, and not a single person dared to blatantly offend him.
Knowing the original purpose of the East Continent Demon King's envoy, King Li Rui nodded his head slowly.
“May there be a demon race in this Southern Continent that is qualified to become the future Demon King Consort of the Eastern Continent.” King Li Rui hoped that it could happen because thus it could create a good relationship between the Demon Kingdom of the Eastern Continent and its Kingdom.
Mo Xin and Mo Zhi who heard him only smiled and had the same hope. The two hoped to quickly find the woman their King was looking for, whereas for a good relationship with the Lotus Kingdom, they had not thought of that at all.
Amidst their casual talk, one of the soldiers standing guard at the back gate of the palace came to King Li Rui to report the arrival of Zhou Tian and the three others.
The Kerajaam banquet will be held tomorrow, but hearing of the arrival of Zhou Tian and the others, the, King Li Rui thought of bringing together Zhou Tian and the others with his guests who were from the Demon Kingdom of the Eastern Continent.
“Take them to this place!” King Li Rui's orders to the soldier who immediately rushed away ran his orders.
“Nona Zhi, those who came were the higher-ups of Demon City, and I don't think there's any problem bringing you together before the Kingdom banquet that takes place tomorrow,” King Li Rui said in response.
Mo Zhi and Mo Xin nodded at King Li Rui's reply, and they were quite enthusiastic about meeting the demons from Demon City who were in the Southern Continent.
The old tek door of the room opened, and one by one people started to enter. Zhou Tian and Zhu Ying entered first hand in hand, while Zhou Gang and Zhu Rong followed right behind them.
The faces of Zhou Tian and the others looked friendly as they entered the room. However, in contrast to the faces of Mo Xin and Mo Zhi who were so enthusiastic looking at Zhu Ying's figure.
They smelled the scent of blood that was so fragrant from Zhu Ying's figure, and this was their first time feeling it.
The scent of blood was one way of finding the figure of the demon race holy maiden that their King was looking for, and they were currently smelling that scent from the demonic figure whose face was covered in a veil.
Without hesitation the two got up and walked over to Zhu Ying. Right before Zhu Ying the two knelt down, and it was clear they did not consider the existence of Zhou Tian who was still holding Zhu Ying's friendly hand.
“Who are you, and why kneel before me?” Zhu Ying asked in a dislike tone.
“We are the messengers of the Demon King of the Eastern Continent, and we came to pick up our King Empress!” mo Xin replied slightly raising her head, but she still knelt before Zhu Ying.
“Who is the Demon King Empress of the Eastern Continent? I don't see his whereabouts!” zhu Ying said.
“Nona is the figure of the Empress whom I mean, and I will soon bring the Empress back to the Eastern Continent.” This time it was Mo Zhi who gave the answer.
“I'm not your Demon King's Empress, and until any time that will never happen!” Zhu Ying said it.
Mo Xin and Mo Zhi looked at Zhu Ying dislikeful of what he had just said, but the two immediately turned their eyes to Zhou Tian.
“Keep your hands away from our Empress if you don't want anything bad to happen to you!” Mo Xin snapped at Zhou Tian with a slight leak of the aura of his strength that was already in the land of Intermediate-ranked Nirvana.
Zhou Tian who heard him only smiled cynically then he spoke, “I will never keep my hands away from my women! You better leave soon because you're too weak to be a threat to me!”
Disliking Zhou Tian's reply, Mo Xin quickly got up and sent a punch towards Zhou Tian's face.
“Swosh..”
Mo Xin's punch came very quickly. However, Zhou Tian's hand was no less swift as it so easily caught Mo Xin's punch before it hit her face.
Failing with a punch, Mo Xin tried to kick Zhou Tian, but the result was the same, his kick very easily managed to hold Zhou Tian back.
Mo Zhi who saw Mo Xin having a hard time facing her enemy, she got up on her feet with the intention of helping Mo Xin. However, the moment he tried to hit Zhou Tian, Zhu Ying easily caught his punch.
Mo Zhi immediately set his sights on the figure of Zhu Ying who faintly emitted an aura far stronger than his aura.
On the other hand, King Li Rui chose to retreat because he knew that his strength was still too weak to deal with people who were currently in a dispute.
He felt much better to lose the special room built to welcome his Royal guests, than to lose his life by meddling in their affairs that were clearly stronger than his.
“You better give up and let the woman you are with come with us! Against us is the same as you provoked the anger of the Demon King!” Mo Xin brought her King's name to threaten Zhou Tian.
Mo Xin's threat instead of being fearful, Zhou Tian smiled amusedly at the threat that was not at all frightening to her.
“I am not at all afraid of your King, if indeed he is angry and wants to fight with me, I am always ready whenever he wants a fight!” reply Zhou Tian fearlessly.
Zhou Tian then released his aura of original strength, which instantly made Mo Xin and Mo Zhi kneel down from receiving the terrifying pressure of Zhou Tian's aura.
From Zhou Tian's body appeared a pillar of light that soared high into the sky, creating a wide hole at the top of the building.
“Pillars of holy light soared high into the sky, even those pillars were much taller than those of His Majesty the King. He, how could he possibly be stronger than His Majesty the King?” Mo Xin's body trembled in fear knowing that the figure of the man who was his opponent was no weaker than his King.
Not only Mo Xin, Mo Zhi also felt the same way, and she felt bad things would happen to her.
As for Zhou Tian, he only smiled sinisterly looking at those who were frightened by him.
