Simulator: Starting as a Green Snake and Transforming into a Dragon

These days, the Demon King of the Other Shore has tried many methods to quell the public opinion, but the results have been poor. He has already lost the initiative in public opinion, so it will be difficult to turn the tide. Now, the only way to quell the public opinion is for Gu Yuchuan to come forward to explain, or for a highly respected Demon Emperor to step forward. Otherwise, it will be difficult to quell the public opinion, and she, the Demon King, will definitely have to pay the price.

However, no demon king was willing to step forward for such a trivial matter; it would be too beneath them. After struggling for several days, the Demon King of the Other Shore finally gave in. She went to the Black Shark Demon King and arranged a meeting with Gu Yuchuan through him, saying that she was willing to offer compensation and asking Gu Yuchuan to be lenient and settle the matter.

Gu Yuchuan immediately went to meet him. The public opinion had reached a point where it was time to calm down, otherwise things would not end well. Although the Demon King of the Other Shore was on his list of targets to be killed in the future, it was definitely not now. Right now, he was in the right, so no one above would interfere too much with what he did. However, if he forced the Demon King of the Other Shore to his death, then even if he was exceptionally talented, his fate would not be good.

Therefore, ending it now is the best outcome. First, it allows them to obtain substantial compensation. The other party is a demon king, whose net worth is undoubtedly very high. The compensation they receive would be even more than all of his wealth combined. Second, it brings their conflict into the open, so the demon king of the other shore can no longer do anything to him, otherwise public opinion could easily resurface.

He arrived at the Tide Palace in a flash, where he was received by the Prime Minister. This time, the Prime Minister looked at him with a hint of admiration.

"You're really something. You, an inner demon king, have been forced into this situation. You have no idea how humble she was in front of our prince when she came. But your future path won't be easy either. They already look down on us outsiders. Even if you advance to demon king, it will probably be difficult for you to integrate."

These are all heartfelt words, spoken with a desire to heal himself, and Gu Yuchuan would naturally appreciate such kindness.

"Thank you for your advice, Prime Minister, but I can't think about that right now. If I don't fight back, I'll only die. As for what happens after I reach the Golden Core stage, I'm only at the second level of Foundation Establishment. It's too early to talk about that. Besides, as a mere Earthly Fiend Foundation Establishment cultivator, once I advance to the Golden Core stage, do you think I'll be afraid of not having anyone trying to win me over?"

The prime minister was stunned for a moment, then sighed, his eyes filled with joy: "I had forgotten about this. You are different from us. Your potential, aptitude, and combat strength will be valued. Alright, go in quickly. The two demon kings are waiting for you. It wouldn't be appropriate if you were late. Remember, don't be too aggressive. After all, you are the weaker one."

Gu Yuchuan nodded and walked straight in. He saw a man and a woman sitting on the throne. The man was a middle-aged man in black armor with a rugged face, exuding an air of authority. The woman was beautiful and charming, but her eyes were filled with sorrow, and her gaze towards Gu Yuchuan was filled with intense killing intent. However, in an instant, she had already concealed her emotions. She had come to seek peace, and she couldn't be in this manner.

"The Azure Scale Demon General of Mingxi greets the Black Shark Demon King."

Gu Yuchuan only greeted the Black Shark Demon King, completely ignoring the Other Shore Demon King, which made the other party even angrier. However, at this time, she could not lash out because of this. The Black Shark Demon King and the Other Shore Demon King did not have a good relationship, and she would not use this incident to reprimand Gu Yuchuan.

“Azure Scale Demon General, the lady next to me is the Demon Queen of the Other Shore. She called you here today to apologize and clear up the misunderstanding between you.”

As soon as he spoke, the Demon King of the Other Shore immediately spoke up. Her smile was very bright, but it looked like a fake smile, a forced smile: "Yes, it's all a misunderstanding between us. I don't know how, but there were rumors that I was trying to kill you. How could that be? Everyone knows that I am the gentlest Demon King. I would never do such a thing. We flower and plant spirits do not like to kill people."

Gu Yuchuan completely deviated from the other party's line of thought: "I don't think His Highness the Demon King is sincere in resolving this matter. If that's his attitude, then I'll leave. I still have many things to take care of at home."

The Demon King of the Other Shore's eyes widened in disbelief. He never imagined that a mere demon general would dare to openly disrespect him. The Black Shark Demon King had also directly assisted in this.

“Other Shore, you don’t even dare to admit what happened. You have no sincerity at all. With this attitude, there’s really no point in us talking anymore.”

The Demon King of the Other Shore took a deep breath and composed herself. However, she knew that things had come to this point, and she could no longer act recklessly. She had to resolve the matter quickly, or her fate would not be good. She closed her eyes, exhaled deeply, and then began to speak.

"Okay, I admit it. I did scheme against you. I apologize. Just tell me what you want and I'll compensate you. Then you go out and clarify this matter. If this public opinion continues to escalate, you'll suffer the consequences."

That really gets to the point; offering compensation is the proper attitude for any negotiation.

"Since that's the case, then I'll say it. First, you must never scheme against me or take revenge on me again. You must swear an oath to the heavens, otherwise, there's no point in discussing the rest. Swear it."

The Demon Queen of the Other Shore had actually considered this point. Although it was somewhat humiliating, she had prepared herself mentally.

She raised her right hand: "Today, I, Hua Mantian, the Demon King of the Other Shore, swear to the Heavenly Dao that from this day forward, I shall not plot against the Azure Scale Demon General Gu Yuchuan, nor do anything harmful to him. The Heavenly Dao bears witness."

Having made this vow, he could do nothing more to Gu Yuchuan, and only then could they begin to discuss compensation.

"Let me state my requirements directly. First, I need a lot of crafting blueprints for spiritual weapons, including at least one spear. The quality must be top-grade. I also need all the necessary materials for each one. There must be at least ten blueprints and at least ten sets of materials for each one. Second, I need elixirs for cultivation. It's that simple."

This amount of stuff would be a lot for a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but for a Golden Core stage demon king, it's nothing special and easily affordable.

"Alright, I'll go back and find it for you now. You'd better prepare to quell the public opinion. If you dare to play me this time, you know what will happen. I will definitely kill you." After saying that, he left, leaving Gu Yuchuan and the Black Shark Demon King behind. After he left, the Black Shark Demon King's face turned very bad, and he released his aura, which made Gu Yuchuan feel very uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty!"
