A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

Damn it, I didn't expect this imperial advisor to have a trick up his sleeve.

Qianbian's eyes were gloomy, and he looked extremely angry.

The monk didn't dare say a word, quickly tidied up, and didn't dare ask any more questions.

You must know that this imperial advisor is deeply trusted and favored by the emperor. If he were to submit a few memorials, the rest of them would no longer need to stay in the capital and could simply retire and return to their hometowns.

Qianbian snorted coldly: "You can continue cleaning up here. Be more careful in the future, otherwise, if the Emperor finds out how you protect the Imperial City, I don't need to say more about the consequences."

After saying that, he swaggered towards the direction of the Imperial Preceptor's residence.

Once out of the mage's sight, Qianbian instantly changed back and anxiously headed towards the Royal Academy.

A journey that would normally take a whole day was abruptly shortened to half a day by Qianbian.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Qianbian quickly sneaked in, knelt down, and said with a face full of remorse, "Master, it's my fault. I didn't expect that even though the Grand Preceptor was dead, he could still secretly transmit his voice and send the message back."

Mo Shaoxie's face was cold as he pondered for a moment.

His eyes flickered, and he gently pressed his hands against his forehead, forcing out a drop of essence blood.

The essence and blood quickly transformed into the likeness of Mo Shaoxie, who was covered in black cloth and looked mysterious.

Mo Shaoxie's face was a little pale. He steadied his breathing and said in a deep voice, "Go take this out for a walk and get some things done."

In an instant, Qianbian understood Mo Shaoxie's meaning.

Since the other side has spies, it's unrealistic to expect them to rely solely on the Grand Preceptor.

Since that's the case, there must be some hidden spies in the capital. So, he might as well use this fake body to do something that will attract attention.

"Master, you shouldn't stay here anytime soon. It's important to find a safe place as soon as possible," Qianbian said hastily after taking his place, as if suddenly remembering something.

The Royal Academy is, after all, the most powerful academy among humans. Its rich resources and methods for dealing with demons are unknown to them, so they cannot act rashly.

Mo Shaoxie's smile faded, becoming lazy and casual.

"I know, you go do your thing."

……

On the other side, the transmission crossed countless mountains and forests, reaching all the way to the bottom of a deep mountain.

At the bottom, a wolf in a cave heard the telepathic message and its eyes grew increasingly tense. It hurriedly ran westward, oblivious to the fact that its fur had become dirty from the twigs.

The wolf demon arrived at the edge of a lake, panting heavily as it released its demonic power with a long howl.

A hole of light appeared out of nowhere, radiating a dazzling light. The entrance was very small, only high enough for a wolf to jump in.

The moment the wolf demon jumped in, the cave of light vanished instantly.

Before him were swarms of demons. Looking at the wolf demon, he joked, "Brother, didn't you just come a few days ago? Why are you here again? What message do you want to deliver this time?"

A flower fairy, dressed in flamboyant attire, covered her face with her hands, which were still shaped like branches, and giggled.

The wolf demon had no time to pay attention to the flower demon's alluring appearance and asked anxiously, "Where is the Demon King? I have urgent business to attend to!"

Seeing the wolf demon's anxious appearance, the flower demon dared not cause any more trouble, fearing it would delay things, and quickly led the wolf demon to find the demon king.

Inside the magnificent palace, the corpse of a demon was being carried out. Black Bear paused upon seeing them and whispered, "The Demon King seems to be in a bad mood. Be careful."

Upon hearing this, the wolf demon's face turned even paler.

Knowing that their demon king is tyrannical and unpredictable, if he reports this news, will he be silenced immediately...?

But disregarding all that, the wolf demon gritted his teeth, reverted to human form, and adopted the appearance of a refined gentleman. However, his face was unusually panicked and pale, which made him lose some of his composure.

The wolf demon strode in, took a deep breath, and respectfully said, "Greetings, Demon King."

The Demon King turned his head, his face cold: "What is it?"

The demon king before them wore golden robes, his features exquisite yet sharp, exuding an aura of authority that commanded respect without a hint of anger. He emanated a superior presence that inspired submission in anyone who met his gaze, especially with his blood-red eyes.

The Demon King's face showed a hint of anger and gloom as he raised an eyebrow at the wolf demon, a cold smile playing on his lips.

The wolf demon said sorrowfully, "The wolf demon I sent to infiltrate among humans is dead. Before he died, he transmitted his voice from afar, saying that his identity had been discovered, but he had successfully found the reincarnation of the Demon King. It was either Feng Jiutian from the Royal Academy or the Emperor's seventh son. Although it was impossible to be sure which one it was, the seventh prince seemed more likely. As soon as I received the news, I came to see him!"

The wolf demon kept its head down, not even panting, feeling an unusual calm before it.

After a long silence, just as the wolf demon was about to look up, he heard a playful voice: "Seventh Prince? The reincarnation of my brother?"

The Demon King's eyes held a mixture of amusement and gloom.

He took his life in his past life, but unexpectedly, his soul was not annihilated, and now he dares to come again.

Then you can't blame him for being ruthless; you can only blame your dear brother for overestimating yourself and insisting on interfering with an already established fact.

A sinister glint flashed in the Demon King's eyes, his face hardening with a mixture of murderous intent and amusement: "Since that's the case, Dog Demon, you go and handle it. If you can't find him..."

His words were quite profound, causing the wolf demon to tremble and lower himself even further.

"Yes."

After receiving his orders and leaving the palace, the wolf demon felt his breathing become a little lighter.

Under the Demon King's gaze, it was as if one was being stared at by an extremely dangerous pair of eyes, and one didn't dare to even breathe loudly, which was quite frightening.

"The king wants you to go find someone," the flower fairy darted out from the side and muttered softly.

The wolf demon nodded, his face full of helplessness.

If it weren't for their good noses and ability to detect scents, they wouldn't have been able to get this kind of job.

After all, their wolf demon clan is of a relatively low level, and there are very few experts in the clan, so their status in the demon race is extremely low.

However, nowadays, because of these sensitive noses, they have gained importance and are envied by many and despised by many in the demon race.

After all, the new king...

The wolf demon composed himself, suddenly realizing he was thinking something treasonous, and quickly pulled his thoughts back.

You must know that the current Demon King values ​​loyalty above all else. If you have even the slightest disloyal thought, you will face utter destruction.

The wolf demon sighed and quickly left the demon realm, ordering his subordinates to do everything in their power to find that person's whereabouts.

Inside the palace, the Demon King toyed with the hair of a maidservant beside him, his smile both wicked and sinister.

"Long time no see. I hope you'll be lucky enough to survive this time."

The Demon King smiled, a smile that was utterly cold and indifferent.
