he's a cat, demon

However, things are unpredictable, and the two parties had just agreed to go to the human world the next day. That night, Zhao Mao received an order from the king to enter the palace urgently, and entered the palace overnight to attend a temporary palace meeting.

This time the palace meeting came suddenly. On the way, Zhao Mao heard Feng Lin say that all the elders in the clan who had been indifferent for a long time were also invited, so he knew that there must be a major event that the newly appointed demon king could not easily decide, so the temporary meeting was held Palace meeting.

As he expected, Feng Qiao, who had just become the Demon King, sat on the throne with a gloomy expression.Anyone who has just become a king will not be happy when he encounters a big threat of genocide.

Feng Qiao, who was not yet seated on the throne, received the news that Demon Realm intended to compete for the position of Great Demon King from his subordinates during the day. The Great Demon King is Miao Xuanji from Duanbai Grotto. Of course, it is impossible for the demon world to let the demon of the Demon Realm sit in the position of the Great Demon King. In the end, it may develop into a protracted demon war.

Feng Qiao couldn't figure out what this Miao Xuanji wanted to do. A hundred years ago, he intended to destroy the dog clan, and now he coveted the seat of the Great Demon King. He seemed like a crazy cat without reason to provoke, but he also knew that Miao Xuanji couldn't be a Crazy cat, otherwise Miao Xuanji wouldn't be able to rule Duanbai Grotto for so long.

He was really curious about the purpose of Miao Xuanji's series of actions.

Feng Qiao and Zhao Mao are no strangers, they are of the same generation, and they also fought side by side in the Demon War a hundred years ago, so when he got the news, he immediately wanted to discuss with Zhao Mao.

Even if she knew that there was a cat demon from Duan Bai Grotto hidden in Zhao Mao's mansion, Feng Qiao didn't doubt Zhao Mao's loyalty to the dog clan at all.

After all, during the demon war back then, Zhao Mao relied on his moon-watching long knife to accumulate prestige through one battle after another. He doubted whoever was loyal to the dog clan, and it was impossible to doubt Zhao Mao.

When Zhao Mao arrived, there were already a few old guys who couldn't be seen sitting in the hall.

"king."

Zhao Maochong made a simple salute to Feng Qiao, then walked to an empty seat on the left and sat down.

When the vacant seats in the hall were finally filled, Feng Qiao asked his subordinates to re-state the situation they had found out earlier. The news that Miao Xuanji in Duanbai Grotto wanted to compete for the Great Demon King made all the dog demons in the hall frown involuntarily.

"Tell me, what exactly does Miao Xuanji want to do? Could it be that she wants to start another war of monsters?" Feng Qiao humbly asked for advice.

At this moment, Feng Qiao and Zhao Mao are the youngest in the palace. Although there is a king and a general, this false name is not deterrent to the other old guys who have lived for thousands of years. Feng Qiao has no need to maintain the majesty of his king, so Without beating around the bush, he frankly expressed his confusion.

There was a moment of silence in the hall, and the kind-faced Elder Wu Zhui said, "It's reasonable for the king not to know the relationship between Miao Xuanji and the dog clan. After all, when that incident happened, the king and the general were not born yet."

Zhao Mao and Feng Qiao glanced at each other, and looked at Elder Wuzhui: "Is this related to the confiscated sacred object in Duanbai Grotto a hundred years ago?"

Elder Wu Zhui didn't expect Zhao Mao to think of it so quickly: "It's really related."

It turns out that a long time ago, the relationship between the cat demon clan and the dog demon clan can be described as dire and hot. At that time, the boundary between demons and demons was not clear, and immature dog demons tortured and killed kitten demons. The dog demon clan doesn't strictly control the immature dog demons, so the large and small scale battles between the races caused by this happen one after another, and there is even such an unspoken rule among the cat demon clan - cat demons and dog demons, from Don't be relatives and friends, never get married.

Different from cat demons' instinctive resistance to dog demons, mature dog demons who can control their instincts are not very hostile to cat demons, after all, they are at the top of the food chain.

There are legends that the Nine-Tails is a gift from Heaven to the cat demon clan. As the only remaining nine-tailed cat in the demon world, Miao Xuanji has a very high status in the cat demon clan. Unfortunately, she later had a relationship with a dog demon. Love, for the cat demon clan, her behavior is equivalent to treason, and the cat demons who cannot accept Miao Xuanji's love for the dog demon will do their best to hunt down Miao Xuanji and the dog demon.They finally hid among the dog clan and got the shelter of the dog clan.

However, there are also some forces among the dog monsters who regard the dog monsters who fell in love with the cat monsters as a shame, and the dog monsters who returned to the clan to seek refuge finally died at the hands of their own kind.

After that, Miao Xuanji entered the Demon Realm alone, and when the news came out, she had become the iron-blooded ruler of Duanbai Grotto.

After listening to Elder Wuzhui's words, Zhao Mao and Feng Qiao were silent for a while. They thought that Miao Xuanji and the dog clan had some deep hatred and would target the dog clan again and again, but they didn't expect that the relationship between her and the dog clan would be like this Tangled and complicated relationships.

Especially Zhao Mao, he couldn't help but think of the relationship between Miao Wu and Miao Xuanji in his mind, wondering if Miao Wu knew that his father was a dog demon, and if he knew who killed his father...

"Then what does this have to do with Miao Xuanji's taking away our clan's sacred objects?" Feng Qiao asked with a frown.

Another elder answered: "There is an ancient legend in the Demon Realm, that if you gather the three holy relics, you can defy the fate of the heavens, and you will be able to meddle in yin and yang."

"Three sacred objects?"

"Phoenix Fire, Ghost Dog Banner, Demon Suppressing Order."

Feng Qiao: "Isn't the ghost dog flag the sacred object of our dog clan?"

"Yes."

"Miao Xuanji wants to revive the dog demon that died back then?" Feng Qiao immediately thought of this possibility when she heard about the ability of flesh and bones.

"This possibility is very high, but the risk of using the three holy relics is too great. After all, it is against the law of heaven. If you are not careful, you may take the entire demon world into it. We can't let her take risks."

Zhao Mao: "So, Miao Xuanji wanted to become the Great Demon King because of the Demon Suppressing Order kept by the Great Demon King?"

Several elders nodded solemnly.

"The demon-suppressing order recognizes the master, and it cannot be driven by the great demon king. This is why Miao Xuanji waited so long, because I don't know if she has already obtained the Phoenix fire."

Feng Qiao: "It seems that we must unite with other demon clans as soon as possible, and we cannot let Miao Xuanji sit on the position of the great demon king. If she has already got the Phoenix Fire, and the three holy objects will be in place by then, no one knows what will happen." matter."

"As it should be."

Knowing the grievances between Miao Xuanji and the dog clan from the mouth of the elder, Feng Qiao has a little more confidence in making a decision.

After seeing off several elders, he looked at Zhao Mao who was still in the hall, and asked doubtfully, "Is there anything else you want to say, General?"

Zhao Mao looked at him and nodded: "I'm going to leave the demon world."

Hearing this, Feng Qiao was stunned for a moment, and asked uncertainly: "Leave the demon world? When?"

"tomorrow."

Feng Qiao was puzzled, and tried her best to persuade her to stay: "General, now that the demon world is about to be turmoiled, the Dog Clan needs you very much, do you have to leave at this time?"

Of course Zhao Mao knew that the timing was wrong, but thinking of the relationship between Miao Wu and Duan Bai Grottoes, and the grievances between Miao Xuanji and the dog clan, Zhao Mao was sure that Miao Wu would not stay out of it, and the last thing he wanted was for Miao Wu to be involved in these things middle.

Thinking that Miao Wu might regard himself as an enemy, Zhao Mao couldn't accept even the slightest possibility.

"I hope you will think about it again." If Zhao Mao really wants to leave, Feng Qiao can't stop him, and now he can only persuade him to think twice.

When Zhao Mao left the palace, it was already dawn, and when he returned to the mansion, he opened the door lightly, only to find Miao Wu sitting by the bed, as if he hadn't slept all night.

"Did you wake up early or didn't sleep?" Zhao Mao quickly walked to him and sat down, stroking his head with a gentle voice.

Miao Wu didn't answer him, but tilted his head to look at him and asked, "Are you leaving today?"

Zhao Mao was slightly stunned, and unconsciously lowered his eyes: "The matter of returning to the human world may have to be slow."

Seemingly not surprised, Miao Wu nodded lightly in response: "Okay." He didn't even ask why.

Zhao Mao looked up at him, he didn't expect him to agree so easily, and was speechless for a while.

He remembered what the elder said about Miao Wu's parents. Seeing that Miao Wu lowered his eyes and didn't look at him, he stretched out his left hand to wrap his right hand on his lap, and carefully explained with words: "The reason why you can't leave immediately is because Because there is news that your mother will compete for the position of Great Demon King..."

"Whether one can be the Great Demon King or not depends on one's ability? My mother can't be?" Miao Wu broke away from his hand and got up, not wanting to discuss these matters with Zhao Mao.

"Did you hear your mother mention something about your father?" Zhao Mao held Miao Wu and refused to let him go. Although he still hesitated in his heart, he felt that Miao Wu was also one of the parties involved and had the right to know what happened back then.

Miao Wu frowned and looked back at him: "What do you mean?"

Zhao Mao patted the seat beside him, motioning for Miao Wu to sit back, and Miao Wu looked at him suspiciously for a while before sitting down.

"I listened to the elders today..." Zhao Mao told Miao Wu the stories he heard in the palace, and Miao Xuanji's true intention to compete for the Great Demon King.

……

As Zhao Mao expected, Miao Wu had never heard his mother say anything about his father, nor had he ever thought that his father might be a dog monster, and even a hundred years ago, the mother declared war on the dog monster clan. There is also a purpose, and I have been kept in the dark from the beginning to the end.

"How do I know if what you said is true?" Miao Wu's eyes were slightly red, and he glared at Zhao Mao angrily, "Maybe this is deliberately made up by the elders of your clan. Are you on your side? I don’t care whether the demon world survives or is destroyed. If the price of resurrecting my father is to stake the entire demon world, why do you think I won’t be on my mother’s side?”

Zhao Mao pursed his lips and looked at him, brushing his fingers across his cheeks, as if wiping away his tears: "I don't take it for granted what you will choose, I just think you have the right to know."

"You bastard!" Miao Wu suddenly broke out, slapped Zhao Mao's hand away angrily, got up and left the room.

Zhao Mao didn't ask him to stay, just watched him go out like this.

Based on his familiarity with Miao Wu, Zhao Mao knew that he just couldn't accept it for a while, and wanted to go out to calm down, and he would be back soon, so Zhao Mao didn't catch up, but sat obediently by the bed, waiting for Miao Wu to calm down return.

However, before Miao Wu came back, he heard that Cheng Mei, who was supposed to have returned to the Fox Clan, had come to report his visit.

Zhao Mao didn't want to see her at first, but his subordinates said that Cheng Mei had brought him a sentence, saying that he wanted to tell him about the memory he lost during the demon war.

In the end, Zhao Mao chose to see Cheng Mei's side. In fact, he has always been brooding about that lost memory.

In the stone pavilion in the courtyard, Zhao Mao looked at the undiminished Cheng Mei, and his tone was polite and distant: "What do you want to say to me?"

Cheng Mei sat down on the stone bench and said calmly: "Of course there is a way to help you recover your memory."

Zhao Mao raised his eyebrows lightly: "Do you have a solution?"

Cheng Mei nodded: "There is a way, but I'm afraid you don't want to restore your memory."

Zhao Mao: "Your judgment is wrong. I have always wanted to recover my memory." Regardless of whether the memory is painful or happy, it is a part of him. Forgetting that time is not an option for him. If he can choose , he will not choose to escape from himself.

Cheng Mei curled her lips into a smile: "Then I'll offend you."

Seeing Cheng Mei's fingertips entwined with a demonic aura towards his brows, Zhao Mao frowned imperceptibly, but soon relaxed and let Cheng Mei move.

The charming purple evil spirit penetrated into the center of Zhao Mao's eyebrows, filling the gap in his memory from a hundred years ago...
