Late at night, in the demon territory, in the main hall of the North Demon City.

The black mist dissipated, and on the throne in the middle, a tall, beautiful and domineering red-haired woman wearing sexy purple clothes appeared.

This person is none other than the northern leader of the demon clan, Ji Wuying, also known as the Northern Demon King.

With her appearance, all the demon elites who were bowing to His Highness trembled with fear.

Her dark red eyes looked viciously at the sinister black-robed man at the front, "Feng Ji, your performance has disappointed me greatly."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was careless."

This sinister man in black robe is none other than the escaped soul of the Yinsha Palace leader, an elite demon who has taken over another’s body.

"Humph! Careless? Who said before that with your formation and corpse-raising technique, we can easily occupy the southeastern territory of Tianfeng Country and expand the territory for my sister?"

Standing on the other side in front, a handsome demon with red hair, red eyes and wearing black armor snorted with disdain.

This man was none other than Ji Wuhen, the demon elite who had fought with Hou Feiying and the others on the battlefield and was defeated and fled. He was also the younger brother of the Northern Demon King.

Ji Wuying's eyes flashed coldly, "Not only has the plan failed, but we have also lost so many demon soldiers. If the Southern Demon King spots us and takes advantage of the opportunity to attack us, how will you explain this to me?"

"I am willing to make amends for my crime and refine more demon zombies to launch an attack on the Tianfeng Kingdom." Feng Ji said gritting his teeth.

"Idiot!" Ji Wuhen cursed, "After these failed raids, the Tianfeng Kingdom has already been prepared. We can't act rashly again."

Ji Wuying nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with his brother's opinion.

"So what do you think we should do next?" she asked.

Ji Wuhen pondered for a moment and said, "We can send an envoy to Tianfeng Country to test their strength. At the same time, we can pretend to negotiate peace and wait for an opportunity to ambush them."

"Just do as you say." Ji Wuying nodded, "Wuhen, go and prepare and select a suitable envoy to go to Tianfeng Kingdom."

"Yes, I obey your command." Ji Wuhen replied with his head down.

Feng Ji lowered his head and said nothing, but he was gritting his teeth in hatred in his heart.

The ninth princess of Tianfeng Kingdom, Jiang Lingyue, and the elder of Qingxuan Sect, Fang Chengyu, are sworn enemies who have wiped out their entire family and killed their own people! You just wait, sooner or later, I will make you all pay back.

After Ji Wuhen retreated, Ji Wuying looked at Feng Ji and said, "You should go down as well. Prepare your formation and corpse-raising technique well. I will give you another chance."

Feng Ji kowtowed to express his gratitude and left.

The next morning, in Mo City, on the southeastern border of Tianfeng Kingdom, the envoys of the demon clan came to the outside of the city and claimed that they were willing to negotiate peace.

The defenders did not dare to let anyone into the city easily, and only presented the demon clan's peace invitation.

In the central army tent, after receiving the peace letter, Marshal Hou, General Hou Feiying, the Ninth Princess Jiang Lingyue, the Vanguard Fang Chengyu, the former prince of the Hundred Demons Kingdom Xiao Che, and several other main generals gathered together to discuss the matter.

Marshal Hou put down the visiting card and looked around. "Everyone, what do you think?"

"I think there must be some trick here." Xiao Che analyzed with a serious face, "Although the demons suffered a defeat, they were not seriously injured. Given the temperament of the demons, how could they ask for peace so easily?"

"This princess also thinks that we should not trust it easily." Jiang Lingyue echoed.

Hou Feiying frowned, "But if we refuse to negotiate peace, I'm afraid it will provoke a larger-scale attack from the demons."

Jiang Lingyue curled her lips and chuckled, "Why not meet the demon envoy first and see what their intentions are."

Fang Chengyu suggested: "We can use the demons' tactics against us and pretend to accept the demons' request for peace to lure them into lowering their guard. During this time, we should make full defensive preparations just in case."

Everyone agreed and decided to let the envoy enter the city and meet at the post station in the city.

At the same time, the city has strengthened its vigilance to deal with possible accidents.

Half an hour later, the demon envoy arrived.

The messenger was a handsome young man named Yeying, who was polite in his words and deeds.

During the meeting at the post station, Yeying conveyed the Northern Demon King's wish to cease fire and negotiate peace.

However, the people present did not easily believe his words.

Xiao Che sneered, "You demons have always been cunning, who knows what you are up to."

Ye Ying was not angry, and replied with a smile: "This peace negotiation is indeed a sincere move on our part. Of course, the specific conditions for the peace negotiation still need further discussion by both parties."

Hou Feiying stared at Ye Ying sharply, "In that case, let's wait until you come up with a more specific plan. However, during this period, you demons must stop all military operations."

"Of course." Ye Ying responded with a cupped hand. "Seven days later, the Northern Demon King will be present in person at the Northern Wilderness Grassland at the border between the two countries, waiting for the arrival of the Marshal."

Afterwards, Ye Ying left the post station and returned to the demon territory.

Was he really here to negotiate peace, or did he have other intentions? Everyone had a question in their minds.

After Ye Ying left, Hou Feiying sent people to secretly investigate the movements of the demons, while stepping up the deployment of troops.

Fang Chengyu, on the other hand, sneaked into the negotiation site quietly and set up the formation himself.

Jiang Lingyue walked out of the tent and saw Xiao Che standing outside alone, looking in the direction of the demons, seemingly lost in thought.

"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Lingyue asked.

Hearing the voice, Xiao Che turned around and looked at her, a hint of affection and forbearance flashed in his emerald green eyes.

"On the day of the peace talks, the Northern Demon City will be empty of guards. Perhaps this is the right time."

Jiang Lingyue was surprised and asked, "You want to go to the North Demon City alone and retrieve the treasure of the Fox Clan?"

Xiao Che nodded, "This is the only chance. If we can successfully retrieve the treasure, the tribesmen can recover their cultivation and help everyone."

"But this is too dangerous." Jiang Lingyue said worriedly.

"Only the Nine-tailed Fox royal family can sense the location of the treasure. This is my responsibility as the prince of the fox clan." Xiao Che's eyes were firm and his tone was unquestionable.

Jiang Lingyue bit her lip and said, "I have concealment skills, defense magic weapons, and healing skills. How about this, I'll go with you."

Xiao Che looked at Jiang Lingyue, his heart deeply moved. He hesitated and struggled for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.

Then, the system prompt sounded.

[Xiao Che's favorability towards the host +10, current favorability is 30. ]

Jiang Lingyue raised the corner of her mouth slightly. Yes, this fox prince was a grateful man. Her worry was worth it.
