Upon hearing this, the demon guard responded with surprise.

"Yes."

After he turned and left, Yan Zhiqiao sat down on a stone bench nearby with some idyllic manner.

She caught a glimpse of Zhuoshen's suspicious gaze from the corner of her eye, and she glanced away lightly.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Zhuoshen straightened his back a little and his tone returned to his usual playful tone.

"My beauty, you are telling me your life story like this, aren't you afraid that I might harm you?"

As soon as he said this, he saw a meaningful smile on Yan Zhiqiao's soft and harmless little face.

She did not answer this question, but Zhuoshen got the answer clearly.

Putting aside the fact that his cultivation was not as good as Yan Zhiqiao's, if he really took action, it would just give Yan Zhiqiao a perfect and excellent reason to kill him.

It also saved her the time of waiting here with him for the "investigation results".

After realizing what a stupid question he had asked, Zhuo Shen's expression didn't change much.

He casually picked up the wine jug beside him and lazily poured some wine into his mouth.

Because she tilted her head back, her slender, white neck was fully exposed.

As the wine went into his mouth, the protruding Adam's apple on his neck rolled up and down continuously.

It was a simple and casual action, but when performed by such a handsome man, it had a different, bewitching meaning.

Even though Gui Ning originally hated Shao Shen, he couldn't help but look at him sideways at this moment.

Yan Zhiqiao was unmoved by this, not even his eyes changed at all.

"I'll give you one day. No matter what answer you give tomorrow morning, I will fulfill my promise first."

Zhuo Shen paused, then quickly stood up with the wine jug in hand, and walked unsteadily to the side of Yan Zhiqiao, looking down at that calm face that seemed to be unmoved by any storm.

"Yan Zhiqiao, if you want me to surrender, you have to give me enough bargaining chips. Otherwise, even if it costs me my life, I will not let you get what you want so easily."

He put away his usual frivolous and irreverent attitude, and spoke in a deep and threatening tone.

Given Yan Zhiqiao's character and usual tough style of doing things, it would be impossible for her to use the identity of the Demon Lord's daughter to tease him.

So what she said is probably very likely to be true.

Her plan to unify the demon clan indicates that the day when the Demon Lord will return to the world is probably not far away.

Zhuo Shen is no match for Yan Zhiqiao alone, let alone the powerful Demon Lord in the legend...

Making an enemy of Yan Zhiqiao is not the best strategy.

If he tries to confront them head-on, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg.

Zhuo Shen has finally managed to gain a place in the treacherous and dangerous world of the demon world. He is not stupid enough to seek his own death.

Although he would be inferior to others in the future, the conditions given by Yan Zhiqiao would largely preserve his status and power.

And judging from his current relationship with Yan Zhiqiao, whether it is cooperation or his one-sided "admiration", in short, they are in the same group.

Furthermore…

Following Yan Zhiqiao is equivalent to following the Demon Lord, and it is not a humiliating thing for him.

Zhuoshen is a very shrewd demon who knows how to seek benefits and avoid harm.

Although he spoke toughly, he had already quickly analyzed all the interests at stake in his mind.

The final decision will be made only after the confidant who went to get the news comes back.

But before that, he had to get enough "benefits" from Yan Zhiqiao.

When the word "bargaining chips" was mentioned, Yan Zhiqiao immediately understood Zhuo Shen's unwillingness to be her enemy.

She didn't take the threat behind it seriously and just asked calmly.

"Tell me, what else do you want?"

Considering Zhuoshen's extraordinary status in the demon world and his decent strength, she could allow him to make some more requests.

As soon as he finished speaking, the androgynous face suddenly came closer, and the undisguised, predatory eyes were clearly reflected in Yan Zhiqiao's dark deer eyes.

The thin, red lips were moistened by the wine, shining in the bright light, and they moved slightly, uttering a word.

"you."

His attitude of not wanting the kingdom but only loving the beauty makes it hard not to give people the illusion that he is deeply in love with Yan Zhiqiao.

Gui Ning, who was standing by, narrowed her pupils in surprise when she heard this.

Could it be that Zhuo Shen really...

But when she saw the indifferent Yan Zhiqiao, she quickly restrained her outward emotions.

No matter whether Zhuoshen's feelings were genuine or false, the master would only give one answer.

After all... her thoughts and preferences are all on the prince of the dragon clan.

Yan Zhiqiao is not an ordinary and normal woman. She will not think that Zhuo Shen favors her just because of the "indulgence" and "compromise" that Zhuo Shen has always shown.

——All his concessions were only because he was restricted by her strength.

As for Zhuoshen's words of liking him, she was not interested in him at all, nor did she care how much sincerity or falsehood was mixed in it.

Yan Zhiqiao stared at Zhuoshen with a calm gaze for two breaths, then suddenly raised his index finger to press against his forehead, and then pushed it back hard.

When Zhuoshen raised his head and stepped back a little, but quickly steadied himself and continued to look at her persistently, she spoke bluntly.

"Zhuo Shen, you are a smart person. When negotiating a deal, just do it properly. Don't always make unrealistic demands to test my patience."

I thought Zhuo Shen would be more restrained after hearing the warning, but he suddenly reached out and grabbed Yan Zhiqiao's hand, which had not yet been let go, and forced it on his left chest.

Boom...boom...boom...

Even through the robe, the steady heartbeat still reached Yan Zhiqiao's palm.

Zhuoshen's expression seemed to change instantly, and his previous serious expression was once again replaced by a frivolous and seductive smile.

"I am just negotiating a deal with you. I am more interested in the position of husband of the Demon Lord's daughter than continuing to be the Demon Lord."

He is not like Feng Heng, who is originally a subordinate of the Demon Lord and can easily gain the Demon Lord's trust.

Even if he really surrendered, it would be difficult for him to be reused in a short period of time.

If you are not careful, you may even be suppressed.

Instead of taking the trouble to "please" the Demon Lord, it would be better to just become his son-in-law.

In this way, he can quickly establish a reliable in-law relationship and win the heart of the beauty.

one stone two bird.

Yan Zhiqiao was silent for a moment, then quickly pulled his hand back.

“People can have dreams, but they cannot be wishful thinking.”

Zhuo Shen: “…”

Yan Zhiqiao ignored his instantly collapsed expression and continued speaking rather heartlessly.

"Power, status, cultivation resources, etc., as long as you want, I can give it to you, but if you insist on making some unrealistic demands, then there is no need to discuss this deal."

Anyway, to her, Zhuo Shen is not an indispensable person.

Seeing that the deal was about to fall through, Zhuoshen fell silent.

After a few breaths, he stood up holding the wine jug.

"Didn't you say you would give me a day to think about it? I'll give you an answer tomorrow."

Yan Zhiqiao, who has no feelings for others, is really quite cold and heartless.
