Chapter 754: Sowing discord, Hei Xun's rebellion
"What else can we do?"
All the monsters came over, looking expectant.
Zhu Duiyou smiled and glanced at Master Xuanyong, then told the whole story to the Yuanlu Demon King and the generals.
"Hei Xun!"
"I observed this man today during the day. He was just perfunctory in the battle with General Qingniu, and didn't fight with his full strength!"
"Plus, he just defected to the Kuihu Demon King, and his foothold is not stable yet. He is not taken seriously, let alone trusted."
"Even after withdrawing the troops, the enemy's military advisors and I split into two sides, and the two sides were on guard against each other!"
"Isn't this our chance?"
"Hiss~~Really?"
The monsters were amazed at Zhu Duiyou's meticulous observation.
Even this can be seen!
General Qingniu nodded in a muffled voice:
"That's right, that guy is quite powerful, and he was indeed holding back when fighting me. He also had some hidden hostility towards the military advisor who was commanding the army below!"
With the testimony of General Qingniu, it is clear that it is true!
"Then, we can use this as a breakthrough point to persuade Hei Xun to rebel and deal a heavy blow to the Kuihu Demon King!"
Dai Budong's eyes lit up and he felt that this idea seemed very feasible.
The Yuanlu Demon King and his generals nodded.
If they could incite Hei Xun to rebel, not only could they backstab the Kuihu Demon King and catch him off guard, they could also hinder each other with the opponent's military advisor, thus laying the foundation for their victory and buying time.
"Then, lobby the people of Black Ten"
"My lord, leave this matter to me!"
Dai Budong volunteered and decided to take on this job.
Although everything is speculation, it is possible that something might go wrong if he were to contact Hei Xun alone, especially if the other party tried to capture him and take credit for it, which would be giving away his life for nothing!
But Dai Budong has already put life and death aside.
"Brother Dai, you are not as eloquent as me, you should let me go."
Zhu Duiyou wanted to persuade him again, but was sternly rejected by Dai Budong.
"Brother Zhu, I can't let you take risks in everything. This time it's my turn, so don't compete with me!"
There was no choice but Zhu Duiyou could only obey him.
Xuanyong Zhenjun thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you, so that if anything goes wrong, there will be someone to help."
The Yuanlu Demon King was overjoyed: "Then I'll have to trouble you two."
late at night.
Heixun hid his figure secretly and came alone to a place dozens of miles away from the camp.
"Young man, you're the only one looking for me?"
Dai Budong had been waiting here for a long time and bowed when he heard this.
"That's right. I am from Yunchuan Academy and would like to greet Senior Heixun."
"You know me?"
"Of course, I have been hanging out with the demon tribe for a long time recently. Senior Hei Xun from the Wuma tribe is also quite famous among the demon tribe."
Hei Xun was a little embarrassed. He became famous in the Star-Swallowing Mountains because when he went to the Longma Demon Clan to capture Xing Ling Jin, he was severely injured by the demon king of the tribe and had to escape. As a result, he became famous in the surrounding areas and was known far and wide.
I'm talking about things that are not related to the topic. I feel inexplicably irritated.
"You came to me, didn't you, just to make fun of me?"
His tone was gloomy, and it seemed that he would attack if there was any disagreement.
Dai Budong had a calm expression, neither humble nor arrogant.
"No, I came here specifically to save your life!"
Heixun was stunned, and was almost defeated by his incredible opening, but then he laughed out of anger.
"What did you say, save my life?"
"That's right. I see that your face is dark and foggy. You must be plagued by bad luck and a bloody disaster. But it's only bystanders who can see clearly. You yourself may not know."
Dai Budong looked very serious and solemn.
Hei Xun knocked on his black visor speechlessly. Is it abnormal for his face to be black? I am now a fog horse. Is it a problem for the fog on my head?
Are you trying to cause trouble on purpose?
"I'm not kidding. You may not know that the bad luck you are about to face is real and there are external factors. If you don't find a way to save yourself, it will definitely bite you!"
Dai Bu Dang's eyes flashed clearly, as if he could see his true nature through his mask.
"I know a little bit about qi reading, so I can't be wrong."
Heixun was a little confused and doubtful, because he had recently felt that things were not going well for him, otherwise he would not have been forced to flee and then ended up in the forbidden area on the cliff.
"The art of seeing qi is usually only learned by people with royal blood or status. How can you do that?"
"The senior is talking about the Heavenly Son's Qi-gazing Technique. I have only learned the basics and am far from reaching that level."
Dai Budong told him about his own situation.
"The senior was originally a human, but later gave up his original race and joined the Mist Horse Clan, and then joined the Inhuman family."
"Then he escaped from the Inhumans, came to the forbidden area of the cliff, and joined the demon tribe."
"To put it nicely, a wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. To put it bluntly, he has changed his master three times and is a traitor!"
"I guess the Kuihu Demon King doesn't trust you, and is even wary of you and imposes many restrictions. You are in a bad situation, Senior."
Hei Xun was furious and responded with a sneer:
"I am living a good life now, and the king relies on me a lot. There is no need for you to play your divisive tricks, kid. Get out of here!"
If he hadn't sensed the presence of a similar-level aura lurking around him, and hadn't been afraid that the noise here would be too loud and would be noticed by the camp of the Kuihu Demon King, he would have killed that guy long ago.
He could not wear it but his expression remained unchanged, and he even smiled.
If you want to take the initiative in a negotiation, you have to provoke the other party's emotions without realizing it.
He knows very well how to control the rhythm of each step and be able to do so with ease.
"Senior said that the Kuihu Demon King relies on you. I wonder what position he has been given now? How many soldiers does he command? What power does he have?"
Heixun paused for a moment, then fell silent.
Dai Budong changed the subject and continued to rub salt into his wounds.
"The other person is only in the Jindan stage, but he was appointed as the military advisor and in charge of the twenty-eight caves. He has the power to command the whole thing and execute first and report later. Isn't the difference between them huge?"
"Humph! That kid is just relying on some crooked tricks to show off his abilities for a while."
"According to my observation, the senior and him don't seem to get along, and there is a grudge between them. As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain. I'm afraid they will eventually fall out in the future, and then."
"I am a Yuanying stage master, how can he, a Jindan stage junior, defeat me?"
Hei Xun still didn't believe it, and felt that this guy was exaggerating. Dai Budong looked serious.
"I'm afraid you don't know the relationship between him and the Kuihu Demon King. Sixty years ago, he helped the Kuihu Demon King fight against my king, and even saved the life of the Kuihu Demon King in times of danger."
Dai Budong had done his homework on the past, and had personally participated in the second half of the war, so he knew it like the back of his hand.
After listening to him telling a long list of past events from beginning to end, Heixun's expression changed!
No wonder this kid is so highly valued by the Demon King Kuihu, it turns out the two have such a deep bond!
Thank you for saving my life, I will be your loyal follower!
"Think about it. After this war is over, if the Kuihu Demon King wins, that person will definitely exclude you after he has made another contribution."
"With his status there, he is favored by the Kuihu Demon King above him and supported by many demon generals below him. How can you, as a newcomer, compete with him for power and profit?"
"Plus, his cultivation is low and he poses no threat to the Kuihu Demon King. The Tiger King will definitely trust him more. You have a high cultivation level and are an outsider, so you will always be on guard!"
“When he finally breaks through the Nascent Soul stage and completely controls the troops of each cave of the demon clan, you will no longer have any hope of turning things around, and you may even risk your life!”
"Let me ask you, you traveled thousands of miles to seek refuge with the Kuihu Demon King, wasn't it just to have a place to stay? But someone has already gotten there first and is against you at every turn. How can you be satisfied?"
Dai Budong's sentences are easy to understand and his analysis is incisive.
Tracing the timeline back to the future, he painted a predicted future for him.
His face was covered with a black mask, so no expression could be seen, but it was not difficult to imagine that his complexion must have been very ugly.
Because these analyses are well-founded and highly probable, and not even an exaggeration.
This is still a conservative statement!
Because the grudge between Heixun and Linshan is definitely bigger than Dai Budong could imagine!
As a result, he failed in his mission and was forced to leave the Wuma tribe, which he had finally integrated into. All his connections and resources were lost!
From then on, he went into exile and had to be on guard against being hunted down by the hundreds of tribes in the Star Palace.
How could he let go of such a huge hatred?
Every day and night, he wished he could cut Lin Shan into pieces and kill him as soon as possible!
But this kid is protected by the Kuihu Demon King and has the wind escape technique at his disposal. The key is that there is a slippery chicken beside him, which makes him unable to kill him in one fell swoop.
Judging from this kid's personality, he probably has the same idea as me. Once he gains power, he will definitely not hesitate to take advantage of others' misfortune and show no mercy!
"Senior, I am here today to invite you on behalf of my great king."
Dai Budong took the opportunity to point out the real purpose of his trip.
"Your Majesty is eager to seek talents. He has good intentions towards a great man like you, and does not want to be your enemy. It would be best if we could become friends."
Heixun had not yet recovered from the shock of his recent experience. He was in a very excited mood and full of worries about the future. Suddenly, Dai Budong extended an olive branch to him.
"This"
He now has only two choices, either continue to stay in the camp of Demon King Kuihu, or choose to join the camp of Demon King Yuanlu!
In fact, he is more inclined to the Kuihu Demon King in his heart, because he is an old overlord with many soldiers and generals and strong strength.
To put it bluntly, the Yuanlu Demon King is just a rebel. How can he be compared with the orthodox ones?
If he wanted to seek refuge, he had to seek refuge with the orthodox forces so that he could live and develop.
Taking refuge with a rebellious demon king, running around all day long, fighting wars east and west, when will it end?
In addition, he was well aware of the strength comparison between the two sides, and abandoning the strong and joining the weak was not a wise choice.
Dai Budong seemed to see through his hesitation and asked with a smile.
"Senior, do you think that our king cannot defeat the Kuihu Demon King?"
Hei Xun snorted: "Isn't it?"
"of course not!"
Dai Budong began to enumerate his own advantages.
"I think you have also heard about the rumors about my great king's true spirit bloodline. A middle-stage Nascent Soul can be on par with the late-stage Nascent Soul Kuihu Demon King! You know the value of this better than I do, so there is no need for me to explain it in detail."
"In addition to the help from the various demon kings in the Swallowing Star Mountains, there are also hundreds of thousands of troops on the way. As the saying goes, those who are righteous will have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous will have few. When the reinforcements arrive, how will the Kuihu Demon King resist?"
"One is a lord who maintains the status quo, and the other is a lord who creates the business. If you want to start from scratch, gain more merit, have a higher status, and open up a brighter future, shouldn't you follow the Yuanlu Monster King to build meritorious careers and become a loyal minister who expands the territory?"
"We are a kind-hearted herbivorous monster tribe. We are not as cruel and merciless as wolves, tigers and leopards. We don't have to worry about being eaten alive. This is a thousand times better than being with the Kuihu Monster King!"
"Senior, if you join us now, you will be the guest of honor!"
Heixun stood in place, with black mist swirling around his body, representing his struggling heart.
To oppose or not to oppose!
He was not very familiar with the Yuanlu Demon King and was afraid that he would have no way to retreat after the rebellion and that his treatment would be worse than that with the Kuihu Demon King.
He was even more afraid that if the Yuanlu Demon King failed, he would be doomed to fail in the forbidden area of the cliff.
"Who?!"
He suddenly noticed some unusual movement nearby and let out a low cry.
"Rustling."
A headless man came out.
"Don't be on guard, Fellow Daoist Heixun. I have no ill intentions. I just saw that you and I have the same goal, so I came out to get to know each other."
"Knowing each other? What are the same goals as mine?"
"Kuihu Demon King Military Advisor! That kid is the mortal enemy of my Wudao Sect, I must kill him as soon as possible!"
"Oh?"
Hei Xun was shocked, because when the headless man talked about that kid, he was full of murderous intent, hating him more than himself. Was his ancestral grave dug up or...
"My most proud disciple was killed by him, and my head was chopped off because of him. I swear I will not return to the sect until this man is eliminated!"
The headless man immediately told Hei Xun everything about himself and that person.
Heixun was also very shocked after hearing this, and lamented that this kid was so bold that he killed the Wudao Sect so miserably. No wonder Yuanying Zhenjun had to be dispatched to punish him!
“Fellow Daoist Heixun, we have the same goal and should not become enemies. After I kill that kid, I will naturally return to the sect. Now I am just a guest of the Yuanlu Demon King. After I leave, you can take all the credit and no one will compete with you for it.”
Xuanyong Zhenjun said that there would be no competition between the two in the future and they could cooperate boldly without any worries.
Now Heixun is even more excited!
It's hard to deal with that guy alone, but it will be easier with two people.
The enemy of my enemy should be my friend. Why should I stop Master Xuanyong from killing people?
The more Hei Xun thought about the future where he would be suppressed by that kid and he wouldn't be able to do anything to him, the more uncomfortable he felt.
To be honest, staying here with the Demon King Kuihu and working with Lin Shan these days made him very uncomfortable.
Today, Dai Budong and Xuan Yong Zhenjun came to instigate rebellion, and they hit his weakness!
As for the Yuanlu Demon King, if you think about it, he is not that weak. He can compete with the Kuihu Demon King for supremacy, so his background must be pretty good!
If you follow him, your future will be brighter thanks to your merits in following the leader!
As a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, now that he had figured out the ins and outs of the matter, he no longer hesitated.
"Okay, you two have impressed me today. I will go with you tonight to meet the Yuanlu Demon King first."
"Not urgent."
"Now is not the time."
Dai Budong and Xuan Yong Zhenjun both tried to stop him and told him to be patient for the time being and to do something while he still had a status with the Kuihu Demon King.
"Oh?"
What did Heixun think of? Did he want me to be a traitor and stab him in the back?
"What do you want to do?"
