Chapter 142: Knowing

“Fairy Hu’s skills are unparalleled. She can even come and go as she pleases. I’m really impressed. I’ll toast you again.”

Hu Jiujiu saw that she had drunk enough and had given the City Lord enough face. She immediately stood up decisively.

“Fairy, what’s wrong?”

“I’m not good at drinking. I want to go back and rest first.”

“I’m really sorry. I accidentally let you drink two more cups.” The City Lord blamed himself in frustration. “Since you’re going back, I’ll get someone to send you back.”

“No need. I’ll go back myself.”

“Good. I hope you’re satisfied with this mansion.”

“Pretty good. Let’s contact each other if there’s anything else.”

“Take care, Fairy.”

Chen Zhu sent Hu Jiujiu out the door. Hu Jiujiu disappeared from the roof in a flash. After Hu Jiujiu left, the City Lord suddenly sobered up. He no longer looked as drunk as before.

“City Lord.” A man dressed as a guard appeared behind him.

“How’s the investigation going?”

“Sir, after a preliminary investigation, the strength of the human cultivators in Ping City has increased greatly overnight. There are even many people who haven’t broken through in decades who have improved greatly after last night.”

The City Lord snorted coldly and looked in the direction of the She Clan. “Those guys have reaped so many benefits over the years. It’s time to spit some out.”

“The demons have suffered a huge loss in strength this time. Should we…”

“Don’t panic. She Tianjun will come looking for us himself. At that time, no matter what conditions we make, he can only agree obediently.”

“The City Lord is wise.”

After last night’s incident, the entire Ping City was in turmoil.

“Haven’t you thought about it? Why did it have to be last night? Why did it have to be after the She Clan’s incident last night that we could successfully break through?!”

In a small market, a man stood on the stage and raised his arms.

“It must be the She Clan secretly plotting something!”

“There’s no need to mention how many years it has been. Everyone knows that they have occupied the mine and deliberately sealed us off. We will never be able to break through!”

“These demons are evil to the core. Why are we still trying to reason with them? Let’s just kill our way in and see whose fist is stronger.”

“Brother Liu is right. This is a place where fists determine benefits.”

“With our current strength, it’s only right for us to kill our way in and take back the rights that belong to us.”

The human cultivators were a little timid at first, but they had observed for an afternoon.

What was the scene they saw? The demons all retreated into their nests. There were also those who used to be tyrannical. Now, they were all obedient and did not dare to come out and be arrogant.

That was all they saw.

All of this confirmed their thoughts. The demons had suffered a huge loss in strength and no longer had the ability to trample them under their feet.

The man standing on the stage received everyone’s response and spoke even more enthusiastically.

“If not for the fact that we have been bullied for so many years, we would not have gathered here to seek justice.”

The man held his weapon high.

“Now that victory is right in front of us, if we continue to protect ourselves here, what awaits us will only be eternal oppression. I can’t give up such an opportunity anymore.”

“Take back the land that belongs to us!”

“Seek justice!”

The human race had been oppressed here for so many years. Now that they had finally seen the light of dawn, they would not let this faint hope go.

“We have to consider if this is the only chance we have in our lives,” the man said with tears flowing down his face. “If I can exchange my blood for justice for the human race, then I’m willing to use my hot blood to exchange for everything I believe in!”

Infected by his emotions, the humans below the stage also shouted excitedly.

Li Yuanqing sat far away in the pavilion and looked at the excited expressions of the people below.

“Master, this guy is quite interesting.” Hu Jiujiu had returned and was sitting beside Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing swept his gaze towards a distant street. A figure slowly disappeared into the alley. “It seems that the City Lord has already reached an agreement with the humans.”

The person who had just left was sent by the City Lord.

Hu Jiujiu said regretfully, “I was thinking that the both sides could fight each other.”

Li Yuanqing said, “In the current situation, a conflict between the two sides will only be disadvantageous to him. He will try his best to avoid a conflict between the two sides.”

“Won’t he be able to reap the benefits of the battle between the two races?” Hu Jiujiu asked in confusion.

“He has been operating here for so many years. He won’t watch his achievements be destroyed just like that.” Li Yuanqing had just finished speaking when he jumped down from the attic.

At the same time, the gathered crowd had already discussed the first step of their strategy.

“Let’s go to the She residence now and get them to cough up all the assets they’ve plundered over the years.”

“Let’s start with their family. The entire human race of Ping City will join forces and let the She Clan cut their flesh.”

“Go!”

The crowd in the square grew larger. The main group followed the leader to the She residence. They split into many branches and headed to the various demon clans. The demons had been abusing their power here for so many years. It was time for them to repay their debts.

“Clan Master, what should we do?”

The She residence was surrounded by the human cultivators outside the door. It was a mess. Many of the elders of their clan had gone out. At this moment, the remaining strength in the clan was even weaker. In addition, the clan’s mineral vein was gone, and the entire clan’s protective restrictions were ineffective.

If these humans really rushed in, they would not have any strength to resist.

She Tianjun frowned as he stared outside the door, but he had no intention of speaking.

“Clan Master, think of a way. If this situation continues, I’m afraid we won’t be able to hold on.”

“How many people are there outside?” She Tianjun asked.

“It looks like a hundred people.” The clansman replied with a bitter expression.

“It doesn’t matter. At most, they will complain outside. As long as they can’t enter, our family will be safe.”

Everyone present was very depressed after they heard the Clan Master’s answer.

“But this isn’t a long-term solution, Clan Master. If this continues, our family will be in a state of panic all day long. What should we do?”

“I’m afraid that even if we are unhappy, we can only live like this obediently. We’ve indeed done many wrong things in the past. It’s expected that someone will come to collect our debt.” Although She Tianjun was talking about what happened outside the door, he kept looking at the City Lord Manor absent-mindedly.

In the meeting hall of the City Lord Manor, the elders of the few demon clans gathered and waited quietly.

The current situation was no longer the same as before. In the past, they could order the City Lord around, but now, they still had to rely on the City Lord to resolve the problem. After waiting for a long time, the City Lord finally walked in calmly from the side door.

As soon as he entered, he said to them apologetically, “I’m really sorry, everyone. The things in the city are a little busy today.”

“It’s fine. It’s a blessing for the citizens that the City Lord is diligent in government affairs.”

The person who spoke on behalf of the She Clan was an elder. Although the She Clan was in trouble, they still had a position among the demons.

“Hahaha.” The City Lord laughed exceptionally happily today. “Elder She, I’m really relieved that you can understand me.”

“We can understand your suffering, City Lord. We just hope that you can understand us.”

Initially, Elder She was the one who spoke, but he could not help but speak impatiently.

The smile on the City Lord’s face slowly disappeared, revealing a nonchalant expression. “Everyone, if you let me say it, I’m sure you know what you’ve done in Ping City for so many years.”

The City Lord swirled the teacup in his hand and glanced at their faces meaningfully. “I’m afraid that no one here believes that these things can be resolved so easily.”

Seeing the City Lord’s smug expression, Elder She snorted coldly and said to the City Lord, “I think the City Lord should understand. All these years, although it was us who did it, you have taken many benefits.

“If it’s really a life and death struggle, I’m afraid no one will look good. Therefore, City Lord, please think of a good way to make everyone look good.”

The City Lord was originally very proud, but when he heard this, he became a little timid. He was right. Although he had been controlled by others for so many years, he had received many benefits. If it really came down to a life and death struggle, he would probably be captured by those people and punished together.

The City Lord coughed lightly and said to Elder She with a smile, “Elder She has sharp eyes and is very decisive. No matter what, you can always be so calm.”

“City Lord, you should save these praises for others in the future.” Elder She looked at the City Lord unhappily and said, “Before I came, I always felt that you were a smart person. No matter what happens in Ping City, you can always find your position.”

“Elder She is right!” The City Lord grabbed Elder She’s hand. “I don’t have any other merits, but I’m very outstanding in balancing. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to obtain your support for so many years.”

Elder She looked at him coldly and said, “Since the City Lord still remembers his strengths, our negotiation will probably be much easier.”

“But with Elder She’s suggestion, I’m afraid this matter might not be resolved successfully.” The City Lord looked at Elder She carefully and said, “To be honest, I won’t have any objections if you ask me to hand over all the land I have and distribute it to everyone.”

“Then where is the City Lord’s displeasure?”

“It’s just that the things you brought out are really too little. I’m afraid it might not satisfy everyone. This is what I’m worried about.”

Elder She said to him indifferently, “City Lord, we’ve already given you enough face by taking out so many resources. I think you know it very well.”

“Of course I know that. It’s just that…”

“What’s wrong with you now? Why haven’t I seen you do so much shit before?” Someone in the back said unhappily.

The City Lord slowly raised his head and changed his expression. He replied indifferently, “You used to have something in your hands.”

“Does the City Lord think that we don’t have any bargaining chips left?”

“Not really.” The City Lord slowly looked down at the agreement in his hand. “It’s just that someone has offered a better deal than you.”

“What is this thing?”

Elder She looked at the agreement in his hand and his face instantly darkened. “In that case, the City Lord is determined to stand with that mob.”

“Elder She, don’t misunderstand. I didn’t choose to stand with anyone. I just chose a group of people who respect me more.”

Elder She slowly stood up and said to the demon representatives behind him, “Everyone, the City Lord wants us to hand over half of our land to the humans. If you can accept it, stay. I’ll take my leave first.”

“Are you kidding? You bastard, you’re revolting!”

“Don’t you know how many bastard things you’ve done over the years?”

“I really want to fight to the death!”

“Since everyone feels that this is unacceptable, please leave.” The City Lord said to them decisively.

The guards surged in from behind. The foul-mouthed greetings of these demon elders still could not change their fate of being invited out.

Not far from the City Lord Manor, Li Yuanqing simply instructed Hu Jiujiu, “Go and tell him that if he needs anything, he can look for us.”

“Master, why did you make me make another trip?” Hu Jiujiu pouted and complained.

“Don’t worry, you’ll benefit when you come back.”

“Thank you, Master. I knew you were the best to Little Jiu.”

In the demon clan’s restaurant, the elders who had been chased out of the City Lord Manor had been invited by Elder She to gather here.

“This bastard must not die a good death.”

“When he was our dog, he licked it cleaner than anyone else.”

“But things are different now, aren’t they?” Elder She looked at the group of people in front of him indifferently. “No matter what, if we join forces, we can deal with this group of humans.”

“They’re just some stragglers. There’s nothing to worry about.” Elder She took out a piece of agreement and placed it on the table. “Since those stragglers can join forces, shouldn’t we show something too?”

“Elder She, this is?”

“But the few major demon clans have never joined forces before. Will it be bad if we break the rules this time?”

“Why are you still following your rules at a time like this? Those humans are about to ride on our heads and sh*t on us demons. If we follow the rules, I’m afraid there won’t be a place for us demons in Ping City anymore.” The Zhang family’s elder was the first to express his stance. He went up and signed his name on the agreement.

Seeing that someone was taking the lead, the others no longer hesitated.

At this critical moment of life and death, the demons signed this alliance agreement.

Elder She picked up the agreement and looked at it carefully. He looked coldly in the direction of the City Lord Manor and said indifferently, “I wonder if our City Lord will reconsider our suggestion.”
