Chapter 2881: I Would Risk My Life For You (3)
The regent feared that Di Fuyi and the Devil King would jointly plot against him. Therefore, after Di Fuyi entered into the Devil Kingdom, he sent countless masters to have him assassinated, but each of them was unsuccessful. Not only did they fail to kill Di Fuyi, but the killers also did not even return.
Nevertheless, the regent did not dare to send the army to intercept him blatantly. After all, Di Fuyi’s reputation was too good around the six realms. He literally had friends across the globe. Even the rulers in the Human and Monster Kingdom were his good friends. If he openly killed Di Fuyi, he would only be attacked by the other realms!
Even without reference to the other realms, the prestige that Di Fuyi carried in the Devil Kingdom itself was already quite high; the people here admired him very much. Therefore, if the regent sent a large army to kill him, he would grow even more unpopular and might cause the people to rebel. So, the only way to go about it was to do it stealthily or not do it at all.
Since the several waves of assassinations had failed, the regent changed his mind and canceled his plan to remove Di Fuyi from the equation. In the end, he only spied on him to see who he would contact after he entered the Devil Kingdom.
As Di Fuyi entered into his territory so publicly, it was only normal for the regent to hold a ceremony to welcome him. No matter how much the regent was afraid of him, he still needed to lead his people to at least come and greet him. The greeting ceremony was quite grand.
Many magic flowers filled the place while water was scattered on the street as the people on both sides of the road were pouring out to join in the excitement.
When Gu Xijiu entered the city, what she saw was the lively scenes on the street. Meanwhile, the regent led the civil and military officials to meet with Di Fuyi and his crew from the boat. He spoke cheerfully, "It is our honor to have National Master Di to come to our Devil Kingdom. It is indeed a glorious occasion. May I know the purpose of your visit? "
Di Fuyi leisurely smiled and replied, "Two months ago, the Devil King invited me to visit this place. Is he doing well?"
