Chapter 1926: Baili Qiongyu I

Huo Wuyan looked at the male demon god named Huyan Jingrui. "Old Baili has already contacted Shang Jingyuan, and that demon maniac is heading straight here."

"Oh?" Huyan Jingrui and the other two raised their eyebrows. "When will Shang Jingyuan arrive in our domain?"

"If my calculations are correct, he will arrive in two weeks. However, his arrival will cause a lot of trouble, and Mo Qingwen will move to stop him."

"Hahaha," Gui Ye laughed as he slammed the table. "Isn’t that a good thing, Old Huyan? If Mo Qingwen fights with Shang Jingyuan, we can use that opportunity to get rid of him, and we will take over this domain from him."

Huo Wuyan and Huyan Jingrui agreed with Gui Ye, and Baili Qiongyu had already planned to use Shang Jingyuan to smooth their plan to overthrow Mo Qingwen.

"Who will become the leader of this domain after we defeat Mo Qingwen?" The three of them turned to the fourth male demon god named Mao Yifan; they frowned as they knew each other’s ambitions, and they hoped to become the next leader. "Does Old Baili want to be our leader? Honestly, I don’t agree if he wants to replace Mo Qingwen, and our domain will be in chaos if he becomes the new leader."

Huo Wuyan, Huyan Jingrui, and Gui Ye agreed with Mao Yifan. They needed Baili Qiongyu to overthrow Mo Qingwen, but they also wouldn’t agree to him becoming their domain’s next leader. However, they realized that their strength was inferior to his, and they wouldn’t be able to stop him if he wanted to ascend the throne, which put them at a crossroads.

Huo Wuyan repeatedly tapped his finger on his armrest while thinking, but he couldn’t think of a proper way to prevent Baili Qiongyu from ascending the throne. If he ascended the throne and became the new leader of their domain, he would abuse his authority to suppress all the demon race.

Although Mo Qingwen had also treated them similarly, he wasn’t a tyrant, and he used gentler methods to rule their domain. However, Baili Qiongyu was different; he would use any means necessary to force them into submission, leaving them worried about their future.

Gui Ye suddenly had an idea. "What if we pit Old Baili against Zhang Fei? However, we should do it after we overthrow Mo Qingwen, so we can eliminate two threats at the same time."

Huyan Jingrui and Mao Yifan agreed with Gui Ye’s idea, but Huo Wuyan had different thoughts from them.

Mo Qingge is stronger than Baili Qiongyu, and he isn’t confident that the Tyrant Demon God can defeat him by himself, but the result will be different if Shang Jingyuan is willing to help him.

Huo Wuyan shook his head and spoke. "We should not discuss this matter for now, and we must wait for Old Baili to return to this domain first. If he succeeds in persuading Shang Jingyuan to help him, our chances of overthrowing Mo Qingwen will be wide open."

"I understand your thoughts, Old Huo." Mao Yifan said with a nod. "If Shang Jingyuan is willing to help us overthrow Mo Qingwen, we don’t need to fight on the front lines. We should let him and Old Baili fight Mo Qingwen first, and we’ll look for an opportunity to eliminate the latter after their fight."

Huyan Jingrui then asked. "What do you think if Shang Jingyuan and Old Baili join forces against Mo Qingwen? Do you think they can defeat him?"

"Mo Qingwen is ranked third on the list of ten strongest cultivators in this Ancient Realm because he is indeed strong, and I’m sure their fight will be very fierce." Gui Ye looked at the three of them. "Honestly, our chances of defeating and overthrowing him are slim, but our chances might increase if Old Baili manages to persuade Shang Jingyuan. The Asura Demon God has a special strengthening technique that only members of his race can use, and his strength will increase significantly once he activates it."

Huyan Jingrui, Mao Yifan, and Huo Wuyan agreed with Gui Ye. They had already heard about Shang Jingyuan’s strength, and his strength helped him rank fifth on the list of ten strongest cultivators. Even though Mo Qingwen was ranked second, they were confident that the Asura Demon God and Baili Qiongyu could defeat him.

However, they also harbored worry in their hearts; they were afraid that Baili Qiongyu would turn against them, and they would never be able to defeat him.

If Baili Qiongyu decided to turn against them, the members of their races would live under his pressure, and their lives would be worse than when Mo Qingwen was their leader.

Huo Wuyan sighed as he stood up. "For now, we should return to our respective places and wait for Old Baili to arrive in three days. We will then go to his palace to meet him. By the way, Old Gui, you should go meet Zhuo Hentian and Chang Moyu and ask them to go with us that day."

"Alright." Gui Ye agreed. "I’ll go meet them after this, and the three of us will go together to Old Baili’s palace in three days."

"What about Yan Washeng?"

"Bah! Why are you thinking about him, Old Huyan?" Gui Ye shook his head. "That fool has already fallen into Zhang Fei’s hands, remember? If we tell him about our plan, he’ll spill everything to that brat, so there’s no need to talk about him anymore. By the way, I’ll be leaving right now, and we’ll meet again in three days."

After Gui Ye disappeared, Huo Wuyan and the other two demon gods also left the place.

Unbeknownst to them, Tang Zhiyao appeared there, but she was using her ethereal body because her real body was in the Myriad Abyss Dungeon.

Tang Zhiyao frowned after overhearing their previous conversation; she didn’t expect Baili Qiongyu to reveal Shang Zhanluo and the others’ presence in their domain to Shang Jingyuan. "I must inform my husband about this matter so he can prepare something to protect his in-laws."

On the fifth underground floor of the Myriad Abyss Domain, Tang Zhiyao moved before Zhang Fei [5] and recounted the results of the previous meeting between Huo Wuyan and the three demon gods.

"As expected." Hua Qianmei said while shaking her head. "What are your plans to secure your in-laws, Zhang Fei?"

Zhang Fei [5] shrugged. "I don’t need to do anything because Huo Ling will protect them, and I’ve already told her to eliminate anyone who dares attack them. Shang Jingyuan may be powerful, but he’s not her match, and she can kill him like an ant. However, I will forbid her from killing him because I need him for something else, so I will ask her to capture him alive."

"What are you going to do to him?" Gongsun Zhilan asked.

"Did you forget about Shang Xueli?" Gongsun Zhilan, Hua Qianmei, and Tang Zhiyao immediately understood Zhang Fei [5]’s plan. "I can help her cultivation reach the Celestial Demon God in the future, but I can’t help her much with her demon rank. Since Shang Jingyuan came to this domain, I will ask Huo Ling to capture him, and I will use a special method to force him to pass on his power to my wife."

Tang Zhiyao nodded in understanding. "If Shang Xueli inherits Shang Jingyuan’s cultivation and demon power, her cultivation and demon rank will increase greatly, and she will become one of the strongest among us."

"Isn’t that a wonderful opportunity for her?" Gongsun Zhilan, Hua Qianmei, and Tang Zhiyao couldn’t help but smile. "A few months ago, I witnessed the former two Celestial Demon Gods passing on their cultivation and demon power to Mo Shentian, and he became the new Celestial Demon God thanks to that. If Shang Xueli inherits Shang Jingyuan’s cultivation and demon power, I believe she will also become the new Asura Demon God, and she will be even stronger than her father."

"Then, what are your plans for Baili Qiongyu?"

"Heh!" Zhang Fei [5] sneered. "Since Baili Qiongyu told Shang Jingyuan about the existence of my in-laws in this domain, I will never spare him. If one of my wives is willing, I will transform her into his demon race, and I will help her to inherit his strength."

Tang Zhiyao looked at him in confusion. "Aren’t you planning to turn them into beasts or demon beasts, husband?"

"Hehehe," Zhang Fei [5] chuckled. "Have you forgotten about Ye Mingran and the other three, Zhiyao? They used to be demons, and I turned them into demon beasts, remember? After they transformed into demon beasts, they didn’t lose their original demon abilities, and they inherited the abilities of demon beasts."

"I see." Tang Zhiyao nodded in understanding. "If one of them transforms into a member of Baili Qiongyu’s demon race, she will inherit his cultivation and demon rank, and she will be able to lead his demon race."

"That’s right."

"Are you going to make a move against Huyan Jingrui, Mao Yifan, Huo Wuyan, and Gui Ye?" Hua Qianmei asked again.

Zhang Fei [5] shook his head. "I don’t want to waste my time on them, and I’ll only make a move against them if they target those closest to me."

"Do you want to hear my opinion?"

"Sure."

"They may not be your enemies right now, but there is a possibility they will become a threat to those closest to you in the future." Zhang Fei [5] didn’t argue with Hua Qianmei. "Instead of waiting for them to pick a fight with your people, I think you should make a move against them first. That way, your people won’t be in danger, and you’ll also help Mo Qingwen at the same time."

"I agree with her," Gongsun Zhilan nodded. "You can transform your four wives into their demon races, and the four of them can also inherit their cultivation and demon ranks. Isn’t that a win-win solution?"
