Xiao Jianghe looked at Zhou Shu with hesitation.

“Just say what you have to say.” Zhou Shu smiled. “It’s not like you to hesitate.”

Xiao Jianghe took a deep breath and finally asked, “Why are you helping the demons, Your Highness?”

Before submitting to Zhou Shu, he had been deceived by Emperor Wei Wu and became a sinner who lured the Demon Realm army to invade the Ten Nations Continent. For this reason, he had sworn an oath to fight to the death to atone for his sins.

He hated demonic beasts.

But now, Zhou Shu had actually helped Yao Li to break through to the Demon King realm. Not only this, but he even wanted to help the other great Demons. Wasn’t this defecting to the enemy?

Although Xiao Jianghe was unwilling to believe that Zhou Shu would join the demons, he was worried that he would repeat the same mistake. If that happened, he would really be too ashamed to continue living.

“You suspect that I want to collude with the demons like Emperor Wei Wu?” Zhou Shu smiled. One look at Xiao Jianghe, and he knew what he was thinking.

Xiao Jianghe opened his mouth. Although he didn’t say anything, his expression betrayed his thoughts.

“Would you believe me if I said that Yao Li’s breakthrough was just an accident?” Zhou Shu smiled.

“I trust you. It’s just—” Xiao Jianghe said.

“It’s indeed too much of a coincidence. I didn’t expect that after all my nonsense, Hu Li would actually believe me. Not only did he believe me, but he even broke through to the Demon King realm.

“If it were me, I’d also find it a little unbelievable.

“But, Jianghe, have some faith in me.” Zhou Shu patted Xiao Jianghe’s shoulder. “What good will it do me to join the demons?

“I would be out of my mind if I joined the demons. I’m not Emperor Wei Wu.

“Yao Li’s breakthrough was an accident,” Zhou Shu said seriously. “I was just fooling them when I said I would teach the Great Dao to the Great Demons.

“My own realm is still a distance away from the Great Demon realm. How can I help a Great Demon break through to the Demon King realm?

“If they do what I say, they might suffer cultivation deviation.”

Xiao Jianghe had never heard of someone suffering cultivation deviation, but it didn’t stop him from understanding its meaning.

Although Zhou Shu said this, to be honest, Xiao Jianghe didn’t think much of it.

The king might not know his own ability, and he might not have any intention of helping the demonic beasts, but he could not help it. A casual sentence from him might benefit the demonic beasts greatly.

For example, the king claimed that he didn’t understand the art of war. In the end, he had casually made a remark and shocked Meng Bai, Wang Mu, Bai Qiancheng, and the others. They were still studying the kind of warfare he mentioned.

A person like the king couldn’t be inferred by common sense.

Xiao Jianghe himself had benefited a lot from following Zhou Shu.

He wasn’t worried that the king would betray the human race now. What he was worried about was that the king might go overboard.

If he really created a few more Demon Kings for the Demon Realm, it would be more than troublesome.

Zhou Shu wasn’t as worried as Xiao Jianghe. What happened to Yao Li, or rather, Hu Li, was definitely an accident.

Who knew that he could break through to the Demon King realm just by saying, ‘We have nothing to lose. If we’re not convinced, we’ll fight!’?

This was simply unreasonable.

But this gave Zhou Shu an opportunity. At the very least, the crisis of the camp being surrounded by Hu Li’s army was temporarily resolved.

He bought the camp a few months. It was a huge gain.

He would think of a way to fool them during Hu Li’s advancement ceremony. How many demonic beasts could he destroy?

This was Zhou Shu’s current plan. Of course, it would be good if he could make a small fortune.

Didn’t those Great Demons say that they would give him whatever he wanted?

They were so enthusiastic. It wouldn’t be nice to reject them.

“There is something I need you to do, Jianghe,” Zhou Shu said solemnly. “It’s not enough for you to go alone. Bring the Criminal Army and have my brother’s Hundred Wars Armored Army cooperate. Also, bring Yin Chengshan, Chen Ji, and the others. If Yang Hong returns, bring him along.”

Zhou Shu continued with a solemn expression, “I want you to do everything you can to stop Yao Qing from appearing at Hu Li’s advancement ceremony!”

Zhou Shu was pretending to be Yao Qing. If the real Yao Qing turned up, it would be troublesome.

Although Zhou Shu was confident that his divine ability Myriad Transformations was ever-changing and flawless, no matter how stupid the demonic beasts were, they wouldn’t listen to him anymore.

“Stop Yao Qing?” Xiao Jianghe’s expression was also very solemn. He knew very well how the appearance of the real Yao Qing would affect Zhou Shu.

Xiao Jianghe wasn’t thinking that the appearance of the real Yao Qing would ruin Zhou Shu’s plan. But if the real Yao Qing appeared, it would definitely bring Zhou Shu great danger!

“Don’t worry, Your Highness. I will definitely do my best to stop Yao Qing. Even if the Criminal Army only had one soldier left, I will definitely not let Yao Qing appear in Hu Li’s advancement ceremony!” Xiao Jianghe said gravely. “The only problem is, Your Highness, how can I find Yao Qing?”

If he couldn’t find Yao Qing, it would be useless no matter how capable he was.

After all, in the Demon Realm, it was impossible for him to seal off all roads leading to Hu Li’s advancement ceremony.

“That’s easy,” Zhou Shu said. “According to my understanding of Yao Qing, if there’s nothing special, he will stay in his lair and cultivate. I will draw a map for you of where he lives.”
