Chapter 177 - 173 Foundation Establishment
The sun rises in the east, its rays generously bathing the earth.
Yun Meng Swamp’s Demon City is in a state of harmony, almost indistinguishable from a human city.
The turmoil came quickly and left just as fast. However, now that the Demon Saint is healing, he temporarily has no time to settle scores. Nonetheless, many Demon Kings are anxious, arriving early to wait outside this ruined palace.
The Qilin Demon King is also present, feeling the most uneasy.
After returning last night, he figured out that they were certainly bluffed by Lord Demon Saint yesterday. The Demon Saint must be injured, and that human must not have been invited. Somehow, the Demon Saint and the human formed an alliance and killed Leize.
If they had all fought desperately last night, there should have been a chance. But due to their deep fear of the Demon Saint, and Leize being slashed with a single sword, it intimidated the demons and led to missing the best opportunity.
Though the Demon Saint verbally promised to let bygones be bygones, it is merely an expedient measure.
If Lord Demon Saint is truly unharmed, could he have refrained from taking action yesterday to settle accounts with them?
The Fox Demon is cunning and clever, and as expected, he only fears the accounts will be settled in autumn.
"Bailong, we have come to request an audience with Lord Demon Saint." The Qilin Demon King spoke to Bailong with a more polite tone than before, after all, Bailong is a direct relative of the Demon Saint, and his performance yesterday likely elevated his status in the mind of Lord Demon Saint.
"Lord Demon Saint is busy and currently has no time to see you all, you should return." Bailong responded.
