The other great demons standing in the great hall were confused about what Bai Qian and He Lian Tian had communicated privately. Upon seeing Bai Qian use the Demon King Token, they immediately understood that something big was about to happen.
They couldn't help but speculate. Was it time for the Demon King Succession Ceremony?
Upon receiving the news, the clan leaders of various tribes also assumed it was the Demon King Succession Ceremony. Therefore, they brought their promising young juniors and prepared congratulatory gifts, arriving at the Demon King Hall as quickly as possible.
The clan leaders who arrived first sat and chatted with those they were familiar with. They were clearly distinguished by the type of demon.
Plant demons, aquatic, terrestrial, and aerial demons were further divided into numerous ranks based on the law of the jungle and the food chain in the demon realm.
He Lian Tian returned to the White Crane tribe.
Bai Qian stood at the highest position. Seeing that all the demons had arrived, she finally spoke.
"I know you are all currently guessing why I summoned all the clan leaders. I did not notify you to come for the Demon King Succession Ceremony."
What? Not the succession ceremony? They had prepared gifts, only to find out it wasn't?
The demons started discussing amongst themselves.
"Lord Bai Qian, if it's not for the succession ceremony, then why have you summoned us?"
"Yes, I've already prepared my gift!"
"It is because what I have to say concerns the survival of our entire demon race, which is why I could only summon all the clan leaders to discuss it together. However, I must clarify one point first: before I reveal the official content, everyone remain quiet and do not interrupt me." Bai Qian raised her hand to stop the commotion in the hall.
The demons, who had already started discussing and speculating upon hearing that it was a matter of life and death, all nodded in unison at Bai Qian's reminder.
Although in the demon realm, besides Demon King Bai Li, there were four other great demons whose power was close to tribulation, and they were above Bai Qian, those four were uninvolved in worldly affairs and were purely indolent. Moreover, they still had to give face to the next Demon King. In any case, they could still communicate with each other without speaking.
Bai Qian nodded with satisfaction at this and began her narration from the beginning.
"Today, shops have appeared out of thin air on the Yellow River. The owners of those shops are cultivators, and she said..."
After Bai Qian finished speaking, a moment of silence fell upon the great hall, followed by an uproar.
"Cultivators?! How can we believe cultivators? Perhaps that Boss Luo is just here to test our demon realm."
"These detestable cultivators! If what they say is true, then all the demons in our demon realm will become pets of human cultivators, or even be used as materials to enhance their cultivation."
"Damn it, when those cultivators come, we'll fight them. I refuse to believe we can't defeat them."
"Lord Bai Qian, how do you know if that Boss Luo is telling the truth? Humans are known for their lies, you must not be deceived by them. It's best if we drive that cultivator out of the demon realm and then reinforce the barrier."
"If that Good Fortune Coming shop is really that good, perhaps we can drive that cultivator out of the demon realm and keep the shop. We can use that so-called training room to improve our strength. With so many of us demons, driving away one cultivator is easy."
"You really are like a toad yawning, full of big talk. You want to drive someone away as soon as they arrive, how laughable. Whether she is an immortal or not, at least she came to our demon realm to deliver news and saved our Demon King. Are you ungrateful?"
"What I said is the truth. It was the cultivators who did bad things to our demon race back then, using various methods to force spirit beasts into contracts, causing our demon race to suffer heavy losses. The Demon King at that time had no choice but to use all his magic power to seal the demon realm. Now that cultivators have come to the demon realm again, it can only be bad news. Perhaps the information she provided is false, and she just wants our demon realm to fall into chaos, so that their cultivators can take advantage of it."
"Since she is an immortal fairy from the immortal realm, what she says is definitely true, and there's no need for her to lie to us. Driving away a fairy, you're truly remarkable, aren't you?"
"What do you mean? Just because that cultivator claims to be a fairy, she is one? Your Sculpture clan are indeed fools, so simple-minded."
"Who are you calling stupid? Who's a fool? Do you want to fight?"
"Come on, who's afraid of who? You are indeed foolish."
The great hall instantly split into several factions. The scent of gunpowder grew stronger and stronger. Many demons had already flown out of the hall and started fighting.
Demons of various types fought in the sky and on the ground, transforming into their original forms and displaying endless demonic arts and spells.
The peace-loving demons in the great hall watched this battle, not knowing what to do.
For a time, demonic energy permeated the entire area around the great hall, mixed with fluctuations of various colored spiritual powers.
"Enough!" Bai Qian frowned and roared as she saw this, her voice carrying immense pressure.
Most of the demons stopped fighting upon hearing Bai Qian's voice, glared at each other, withdrew their attacks, and obediently retreated back into the hall.
"At a time like this, you're still fighting? The cultivators haven't even attacked the demon realm, and we're already fighting amongst ourselves. If you want to fight, do it when the cultivators from the human realm arrive," Bai Qian said angrily as she scanned the crowd.
A man, dressed in a red ancient robe, with a rosy complexion, skin as white as snow, slender fingers, and exquisitely handsome features, had a head of silver hair casually tied in a bun at the back of his head. His pair of purple pupils flashed with light, his nose was high-bridged, and his cherry-like tender red lips were slightly pursed, giving him a captivating aura.
This man was none other than the clan leader of the Fox tribe, named Hu Jiu Yuan.
Hu Jiu Yuan stepped forward and looked at the assembled demons, "On behalf of the Fox tribe, I pledge to obey all of Bai Qian's commands.
However, I am quite curious about that Good Fortune Coming and that cultivator. I think instead of arguing here, it would be better to go and see for ourselves. Perhaps that female cultivator really is from the immortal realm. Bai Qian said there are Koi machines, movie theaters, and supermarkets in the shop. Don't you all want to see for yourselves?"
Some demons showed anger and unwillingness upon hearing what the Fox tribe leader said, but they suppressed it and said no more.
"Fine, let's go and see. I want to see what kind of person this Boss Luo is."
Hu Jiu Yuan secretly winked at Bai Qian, looking smug, and communicated through telepathy: 'How is it? Didn't that stabilize the situation?'
'Impressive, you are indeed cunning.'
Bai Qian replied through telepathy.
The Nine-tailed Fox tribe was indeed cunning, but these suggestions were indeed good. Perhaps after seeing Good Fortune Coming, their subsequent plans would be easier to implement.
Thinking this, Bai Qian led the persuaded clan leaders towards Good Fortune Coming.
...
"Is this the Good Fortune Coming shop up ahead?"
"I want to see what kind of person this Boss Luo is. Let's go!"
"Let's go!"
