"You have lofty ambitions and a clear vision. It seems I really underestimated you. You are the king of all beasts, so it is only natural that the demon race submits to you."

Hua Rou nodded. "Humans and demons are like fire and water. Humans kill each other and use us demons as a price to advance. Demons are single-mindedly seeking revenge. They will kill any human they see without asking why. I am very disappointed. But then I met you."

Lin Yaoxie was a little confused. "What happened to me..." Hua Rou smiled. "You're the only one who would stand up for me. So your goal isn't killing, but—to become stronger."

“Then I am the same kind of people as them, and my purpose is not kind,” Hua Rou shook her head. “If it were at the beginning, I would have said the same thing, but we have been through so much together, and I have changed my previous views.”

"You have a clear sense of right and wrong, you are decisive in killing, you are still kind, and you have the responsibility to accomplish great things," Hua Rou said, listing many of Lin Yaoxie's good qualities. Lin Yaoxie smiled from ear to ear, "Stop praising me, I'm not that outstanding!"

0oo is asking for flowers.......

“Master, I like you, I can…” Something’s not right. Lin Yaoxie actually saw love in Hua Rou’s eyes when she looked at him, which was not what Lin Yaoxie wanted.

As the two stared at each other awkwardly, Cheng Fu suddenly rushed out, "You human bastard, what method did you use to bewitch Hua Rou? Now I'm going to expose your true colors!"

When Cheng Fu really made his move, Lin Yaoxie wouldn't sit idly by. He instantly drew his Qilin Sword, breaking the shackles on his body. Just as he was about to rush forward, Hua Rou stood between the two of them.

"Chengfu, that's enough! You actually followed me! You dared to attack my master! I'll kill you!" Hua Rou's aura suddenly became violent, and her strength was actually comparable to Lin Yaoxie's.

Cheng Fu certainly wouldn't fight Hua Rou. "He's the one you said you admire. Can't you see how good I've been to you? You actually fought me for a human, and even tried to kill me. Am I really that despicable?" Guang said.

Chapter 119 Mystery of Her Origins

Hua Rou showed no mercy. "Stop pretending. Do you think I can't see through your plans? You already lied to my sister with those words, and now you're trying to lie to me too. Hypocritical. Don't force me to take action."

Cheng Fu stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that these words came from Hua Rou's mouth. "Fine, Hua Rou, so you think so much about me? I'll make you pay the price."

Hua Rou ignored "863" and Cheng Fu stormed off. Turning back to Lin Yaoxie, she said, "Master, you've been frightened again. Since the barriers and shackles here can't restrain you, why don't you leave?"

Lin Yaoxie smiled and said, "I told you, let's take a gamble. Besides, what will you do if I leave? Your father will banish you to an even more distant place."

Hua Rou nodded. "By the way, who was that person just now? It seemed like he liked you quite a bit. Are you sure something bad will happen if you treat him like that?"

“His name is Chengfu. His father was a general who fought alongside my father. After the demon race stabilized, he also became a nobleman. His father was very much favored by my father, so his status was second only to ours.”

"Then why do you dislike him so much?" Lin Yaoxie asked curiously. Hua Rou nodded. "He and my sister were engaged, but after that accident, my impression of him changed. I realized that he might have been behind the accident."

Lin Yaoxie looked at Hua Rou and said, “You can’t just say things like that.” Hua Rou nodded. “That time, my mother, my sister, and everyone in Chengfu’s family were killed, except for Chengfu. They were chased by the strongest human race. None of them survived. But the people who killed my mother left a mark.”

"This is the jade pendant. It was given to me by the perpetrator as a betrothal gift, but my mother also had one. This must have been taken from the murderer by my mother before she died."

Lin Yaoxie understood; any normal person could have guessed. "Why didn't you tell your father?" Hua Rou put away the jade pendant. "My father wouldn't believe me. Now Cheng Fu is the military supervisor. If he harbors any rebellious intentions, the demon race will be in grave danger. I can't do that."

"So what do you plan to do? Just ignore it like this?" Lin Yaoxie said, and Hua Rou suddenly burst into tears. "I can't be sure. My two older brothers haven't returned, and Father Emperor is ignoring me. I can only wait for my brothers to return in triumph before investigating this matter..."

Lin Yaoxie nodded. "Master, let me take you out." Hua Rou helped Lin Yaoxie up, but Lin Yaoxie shook his head. "I can't go out. If I go out, you will be the one who suffers. Go find your father and tell him that I have something important to report."

Although Hua Rou didn't know what Lin Yaoxie was up to, she still did as he said.

Cheng Fu knelt before the Demon Emperor, saying, "Demon Emperor, Princess Hua Rou has been bewitched by the human demon Lin Yaoxie. I implore you to issue an edict to kill Lin Yaoxie immediately, so that Hua Rou can be brought out of this predicament."

“I also want to kill him, but Lin Yaoxie is now at level 5.4 with Hua Rou. If you die, Hua Rou will also be in danger. I can’t take the risk. Let me think of a way.”

"Demon Emperor, then I request to marry Hua Rou as soon as possible, and I will definitely serve the demon race even more afterward," Cheng Fu couldn't hold back any longer. Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor's expression changed instantly.

Staring at Chengfu, he said, "Before the great battle, you were all sentimental. Chengfu, you haven't inherited any of your father's fine traditions."

Chapter 120 I've Been Waiting for You for a Long Time

And can't you see how annoyed Hua Rou is with you? Do you know how difficult it is for me to keep pushing you like this?

The Demon Emperor was already furious. Chengfu wanted to say something more, but the Demon Emperor directly ordered, "Enough. Go back to your army. When you return in triumph and become a hero, perhaps Hua Rou will change her mind about you."

“Then I’ll go home,” Chengfu said, but the Demon Emperor didn’t agree. “If there’s anything you need to do, have your servants do it. You must set off immediately without delay,” the Demon Emperor said and left.

Cheng Fu stared at the high seat, his face turning even more ashen. "What do you take me for? Your pet dog? If that's the case, don't blame me for being impolite. You forced me to this."

After Cheng Fu left the main hall, the supervisor of the four civilians was suddenly replaced by another person.

"Father, you've come. This is food I made myself. Please try it," Hua Rou helped the Demon Emperor in. "What's wrong with you today? This isn't like you. What's the matter?"

"Father, come with me to see my master. He has something to say to you," the Demon Emperor roared in anger. "You worthless thing, when did you become a mouthpiece for the human race?"

Hua Rou knew it was impossible to reason with her father. "Father, please don't be angry. I, Lin Yaoxie, am considered a strong person among humans. You are about to undergo tribulation and become an immortal. Understanding him now is also understanding the human race. If we discover the weaknesses of the human race, it can also help our demon race win."

Hua Rou followed Lin Yaoxie's instructions, and the Demon Emperor did hesitate for a moment. Looking at Hua Rou, he said, "It seems you've learned something this time. I'll go with you to take a look."

Hua Rou jumped up happily.

Lin Yaoxie was still cultivating in prison when a strange and powerful aura alerted him. Suddenly, a sharp blade appeared in front of him, and as it sliced ​​through, Lin Yaoxie turned into white smoke.

The man in black realized he had been tricked. "It's fake," Lin Yaoxie suddenly descended from the sky, his Qilin sword instantly injuring the man in black. "I've been waiting for you for a long time, Chengfu. I knew you would come to kill me when you left."

Caught off guard, Chengfu had already lost the initiative. Chengfu looked at Lin Yaoxie, removed his mask, and revealed a different face. "At this time, we humans should unite against our common enemy. If we kill each other, the demon race will benefit in the end."

"What do you mean? You're human?" Lin Yaoxie asked. Cheng Fu nodded, quite surprised after sensing his aura. "You really are human, but you're in the demon race."

"This was a scheme set up by the human race commander long ago. They sealed my memories, put me in the demon race, and then I was adopted and raised by the demon emperor's confidant. The human race unsealed my memories, and I cultivated two techniques at the same time, holding important positions on both sides. No matter who wins or loses, I suffer no loss."

Chengfu's plan was truly shrewd. "This is your business, what does it have to do with me? If I remember correctly, you were trying to kill me just now. Isn't it a bit late to tell me that humans should unite with each other?"

“You have infringed upon my interests, so of course I will not spare you. But I underestimated you. If you come with me, we can enjoy wealth and glory together,” Cheng Fu said eagerly.

Lin Yaoxie chuckled. "Why should I trust you? If I release my blade, you can easily find some excuse to kill me. If we're cooperating, shouldn't I also have some leverage over you?"

Chapter 120H exposed

“Alright, you’re a smart man, so let’s not beat around the bush. I’ll tell you where I’ve hidden all my money, is that alright?” Cheng Fu said.

The Qilin Sword was about to pierce Chengfu's skin. Lin Yao said evilly, "Do you really think I'm a fool? It seems you won't let me live without drawing blood."

"Wait, I have something to tell you, a major event concerning the demon race. Back then, the entire family of the demon queen and the demon emperor's confidants were wiped out. It was all my doing. I deliberately leaked the information and found the best ambush location."

Without being asked, Lin Yaoxie smiled and said, "You are indeed despicable, but words are not enough. What evidence do you have to say this?" Cheng Fu took out a jade pendant that was exactly the same as Hua Rou's. "This is the evidence. There are three jade pendants in total, and one is missing..."

Before Chengfu could finish speaking, the intense pain caused him to roar in agony. Lin Yaoxie looked behind him and saw that the Demon Emperor had somehow appeared behind him.

"So it really was you, Chengfu, you traitor! I've raised you for so long, how could you be so heartless? I'll beat you to death!" The Demon Emperor stomped on Chengfu's body one step at a time.

Seeing that his plan had been exposed, Cheng Fu suddenly burst into laughter, "I never thought that I, Cheng Fu, would be defeated by an unknown nobody! I refuse to accept this! Demon Emperor, kill me, and your army will be thrown into chaos!"

"You will die today," the Demon Emperor said, about to make his move, when Cheng Fu took out his military token. "Do you know why I came back this time? It's to force you to let me marry Hua Rou. If I don't get back, your two sons will fall down at any moment."

“How could the demon army possibly obey your orders? That’s wishful thinking,” the Demon Emperor said, but he wasn’t sure himself. “You’re right, but it wouldn’t be difficult for a few of my men to infiltrate the demon army. Are you sure they can’t do it? Surprise is the most deadly thing, otherwise I wouldn’t have ended up in your hands.”

The Demon Emperor gritted his teeth and said, "Guards, take him away and keep a close eye on him." Several people came in and took Chengfu away. Hua Rou immediately spoke well of the Demon Emperor, "Father, this is all thanks to Master. He eliminated a great scourge of the demon race."

"Can you guarantee that he and Chengfu are not the same kind of people? He has deceived me for so long, which only confirms what I said: humans cannot be trusted, nor can we be soft-hearted towards them."

Lin Yaoxie smiled. "I didn't intend to help you. It's just that you happened to overhear. Such a scoundrel is a disgrace to the human race, but isn't that how war is? All's fair in war."

The Demon Emperor looked at Lin Yaoxie and said, "Do you know what you're saying? Your life is in my hands." Hua Rou saw the two of them about to clash and wanted to interrupt, but she had nothing to say.

“Your two sons are in the most danger right now. They don’t know that Chengfu is a spy. If you don’t make a decision quickly, your sons will be in trouble. If the commander falls, no matter how strong the army is, it will be a disorganized mess without a leader, and will be trampled on by others.”

"What do you mean? I only have (Qian Wanghao) to arrange. You should worry about yourself first. I'm terminating your contract with Hua Rou right now and using you as a victory gift."

Lin Yaoxie smiled and said, "Only I can help you. I understand the human race and I understand the demon race. My succession as the military supervisor is a choice you must make."

Before the Demon Emperor could say anything more, a soldier outside the door suddenly shouted, "Demon Emperor, something terrible has happened! Cheng Fu has escaped! He killed our men and, judging by the direction, is running back to the army!"

Chapter 122 The Demon Emperor's Compromise

The Demon Emperor panicked. He knew very well what it meant if Cheng Fu returned; his two sons would be in grave danger. Looking at Lin Yaoxie, the Demon Emperor compromised.

"If you can lead the demon race to victory and bring my two sons back safely, I will give you whatever you want."

Lin Yaoxie looked at Hua Rou, "I only want one of your treasures, a treasure that can restore a person's spiritual consciousness." The Demon Emperor glanced at Lin Yaoxie and took out a glowing spirit pearl from his robes.

“This is the Spirit Bead. What you wanted was the Spirit Grass, right? The Spirit Grass is in the Demon Realm. You came here out of necessity, didn’t you?” Lin Yaoxie didn’t mince words.

Hua Rou suddenly snatched it away, leaving the Demon Emperor helpless. "Hua Rou, are you really my biological daughter?" Hua Rou handed the Spirit Bead to Lin Yaoxie, but Lin Yaoxie did not accept it.

“You are a smart man. Even if you take the Spirit Bead, it will be useless to you.” The Demon Emperor was not flustered at all. “I will repel the human race and bring back the heads of the people I punished, but you must save my woman.”

After saying this, Lin Yaoxie placed Zi Yuehan into a protective barrier. The Demon Emperor placed the Spirit Bead into Zi Yuehan's body. "This is my sincerity. This way, her spiritual consciousness will not dissipate. As long as you do what you just promised, your woman will surely be able to awaken."

The Demon Emperor spoke coldly, saying that asking the human race for help was already the greatest disgrace of the demon race, and now they actually had to agree to the human race's conditions. The Demon Emperor, who harbored deep prejudices against the human race, had already gone to the limit by doing this.

"Alright, Zi Yuehan is right here. I'm back. If anything happens to her, I'll wipe out your entire demon clan." Lin Yaoxie soared into the air, and Hua Rou was also about to take off, but Lin Yaoxie stopped her.

"Xiao Rou, you have to stay here and protect Yue Han for me. You're the only one I trust here," Hua Rou said reluctantly, but she had no choice but to agree.

Lin Yaoxie vanished from Hua Rou's sight in an instant. The Demon Emperor's face remained calm, but his heart was already churning with turmoil. This concerned the life of his son, how could he not be worried?

"Father, do you think Master will return safely?" Hua Rou suddenly asked seriously. The Demon Emperor smiled bitterly, "I also hope he can come back. His return means your brother is safe."

"They will definitely come back safely," Hua Rou said firmly.

When Lin Yaoxie arrived at the army, he took the Demon Emperor's token and went to the commander's tent. No one dared to stop him. As soon as he entered, he saw a man smashing things.

"A bunch of useless trash! So many of you just watched him take my second brother away. What use are you to me? Seal the city gates, search the area thoroughly, dig three feet into the ground, and find this traitor and cut him into a thousand pieces."

Lin Yaoxie walked in, and the man turned around. "Who are you?" Lin Yaoxie took out the Demon Emperor's token, and the man immediately knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty's envoy, Prince Haoyu, pays his respects."

"Get up, there's no need to be so formal. I am the current military supervisor, and Cheng Fu is a traitor. Do you know that?" Hao Yu nodded, his face turning extremely grim. "We already know."

"How is the war going now? You've won three victories already, and you should be close to final victory. Why not seize the opportunity and drive the humans out in one fell swoop?"

Haoyu shook his head. "Commander Lin, you're too late. By the time you've subdued this bastard, he's already exposed his identity."

Chapter 123 A Scheme Within a Scheme

They even kidnapped my younger brother, Haoyang. He had important intelligence on us, including military deployment maps.

Lin Yaoxie frowned. "You're moving so fast. Where is he now? You couldn't have been so slow that he could have already escaped back to the human race, could you?"

“He’s still hiding in our territory, but we haven’t been able to find him,” Haoyu said. Lin Yaoxie clenched his fists. “This traitor is now of paramount importance. We absolutely cannot let him go back.”

Haoyu was also thinking of a way, but with such a large fiefdom, it was impossible to find it by manpower alone. We could only use strategy. Lin Yaoxie summoned Haoyu alone.

"We'll spread the word that we're going to launch a secret attack on the human base from the rear. At the same time, to prevent the humans from discovering this, we'll deliberately lower our guard and say that the road won't be guarded."

“Aren’t you letting him escape like this? This won’t do,” Haoyu didn’t understand Lin Yaoxie’s purpose for a moment. “How can you be a commander? What I want is for him to run away by that road.”

Haoyu suddenly realized, "That's right, we can ambush him there in advance, he will definitely fall for it." Lin Yaoxie nodded, "No, there's another plan. We also need to lure out all the spies in the army at the same time, and then open up a road. Chengfu will definitely not fall for it easily."

"This plan is brilliant, Lin Yaoxie. You are a human, why are you helping my demon race?" Hao Yu's question also made it difficult for Lin Yaoxie to answer. "I despise people like Chengfu. When I deal with humans, I only drive them back to their original places. I am doing this for her."

After Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, he left and continued to cultivate in his room.

"Commander, he is, after all, a human. Can we trust him? I'm still a little worried."

“He has the Emperor’s token. The Emperor has already sent a message to me, but failing to capture and punish him is a test for him. Give the orders as I just gave.”

Haoyu gripped his sword tightly. "I didn't expect you to show your true colors so quickly. You've used the wrong person for your tactic of sowing discord."

On a winding mountain road, more than a dozen people sped away. At Haoyu's command, a net suddenly appeared around them. Haoyu, holding a sharp blade, rushed to the front.
