The atmosphere in the hall suddenly stagnated, and the few people who were still chatting shut their mouths.

The surroundings were eerily quiet, not even a breath could be heard.

From above, a heavy and threatening force pressed down, as if a terrifying and bloodthirsty giant beast suddenly descended, staring down at them as if they were looking at insignificant pieces of garbage.

A wisp of sweat slipped from Jin Baiyu's fair forehead, and her fingers were extremely tight.

She realized very clearly that the Demon Lord was coming.

Before she even saw his appearance, with just one breath, she couldn't help but start to wonder if Jiaojiao had remembered it wrong.

Would this kind of person really be a stupid idiot?

A few seconds seemed like hours. Jin Baiyu lowered her eyes and heard the person above her finally speaking, breaking the almost stagnant time.

"I heard that many of you have gone to Lingyun City to play."

The man's voice was low, with the magnetic elegance of a piano string, and he spoke with a bit of a smile, "Is it fun?"

No one said a word.

At this moment, an invisible force suddenly gathered around Jin Baiyu's neck. Her heart skipped a beat, but before she could react, it forced her head to rise.

His vision suddenly widened.

Jin Baiyu saw a person sitting in the Xuanyu chair. She didn't know whether it was because of the lack of distance or what tricks the person had used, but she couldn't see his face clearly.

All you can see is that he seems to have no bones, his posture is sluggish, his figure is lazily nestled in a chair, and his black brocade robe is spread out in a flamboyant way, just as lazy and casual as he speaks.

"What are you doing with your head down? Your brain is no longer needed." He said with a smile.

It turned out that it was not directed at her alone. Jin Baiyu's anxious heart was relieved a little. With a casual glance, she saw that the heads of ten city lords were raised semi-forcedly, looking up at this weird and powerful person.

Demon Lord.

Somehow, at this moment, Jin Baiyu suddenly remembered a magical picture on the Internet that she had seen before, in which rows of salted fish looked up at the stars with their necks crossed.

"..." Suddenly I wasn't nervous anymore, and I even wanted to laugh a little bit.

Someone finally spoke, trembling: "Returning to your Majesty, the secret realm of Sumeru Island in Lingyun City has not been opened for hundreds of years. Now there is finally an opportunity to appear in the world. The righteous sects held a meeting in Lingyun City to discuss the matter of the secret realm. Subordinates

I just want to go ahead and see if monitoring their actions will be detrimental to our demon world!"

"You have worked so hard for my demon world, I want to praise you," the man seemed to be a little more interested, and said thoughtfully, "Well... I will reward you with three days of fire burning from the prison."

Jin Baiyu: "..." This is called reward? You are the legendary Onmyoji, right?

The man lazily said again: "Jing Ji, what do you think about the secret realm of Xumiyu Island?"

The soft voice that had spoken before sounded, still as delicate as ever:

"The secret realm of Xumiyu Island can only be entered by people with cultivation levels below the Golden Core. The number of places is limited. Those famous sects have to hold a special meeting to discuss the allocation of places. I know that the only ones who can enter in the end are young people with good talents.

Young and cub.”

Her voice curled up and she said angrily: "Your Majesty, it's not like you don't know that the slave family likes mature and powerful men, and they are not interested in such young monks~"

The sound went up and down, undulating like waves. Listening to it, Jin Baiyu's scalp felt numb and she felt like she couldn't breathe.

Help - she thought angrily. Not only was she dizzy, but she was also dizzy when speaking like this.

A burst of weird laughter saved her from the chill all over her body.

"Your Majesty, as Jing Ji said, I feel that this is a good opportunity for us demon cultivators to attack the righteous path! As long as we set up an ambush outside the secret realm, or mix our people into the secret realm, these righteous path will be destroyed.

All the good seedlings will be caught in one fell swoop. If they don’t get picked up in the future, they will be unable to recover!”

The Demon Lord slowly sat up straight, and the smile in his words disappeared.

He said in a scornful tone: "You mean to say that I can only defeat the righteous way by using this method, right?"

The man's laughter stopped suddenly, as if a duck had been pinched by the neck, making a squeaking sound on the verge of breaking.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, my subordinates, this is not what I mean - please, please, Your Majesty - spare your life -"

"I know, you just have no brains."

The Demon Lord sighed softly. Although he still had the power to control the life and death of the man, his face already looked like a teacher teaching earnestly, and he said warmly:

"Just don't say such stupid things in the future, do you understand?"

"I am already very tired of having to deal with these annoying things like you every day. If you don't even know how to say something nice, I will be really distressed."

As he finished the last word, he raised his finger slightly.

Jin Baiyu saw the mosaic in the fifth building on the right tremble, and then let out a series of earth-shattering coughing sounds and desperate breathing sounds.

With these precedents, she was already worried about how she would answer to avoid being burned or pinched when questions were asked about her later.

Then Jin Baiyu suddenly realized a big problem.

To this day, when the Demon Lord asks questions, he always points to people for answers, and it seems that they are not in order, but at random based on his mood.

Since she is wearing a vest, it is natural that the name she uses in the demon world cannot be her real name.

So, what is the name of her vest?

...Jin Baiyu was silent for a moment, feeling that something might not be right with her.

Fortunately, the Demon Lord saved her from this worry in the next second. On the dark and cold jade throne, the man's chin was slightly raised, and a wisp of ink hair fell from his temples. He sighed as if: "Forget it.

, there’s no point asking you, you’re just a bunch of idiots on the left and right.”

The idiot Jin Baiyu didn't care at all, but breathed a sigh of relief.

Hearing the Demon Lord's elegant and indifferent voice suddenly change, he commanded in a deep voice: "The Sumeru Realm will be officially opened in half a month. You trashes in the last five cities, I want you to use whatever method you can before that."

——Obtain the qualification to enter the Xumi territory, enter the territory, and perform two tasks."

"First, control those things under your control that are ready to move, and don't let them show up in front of the right path."

"Second, get something for me."

He didn't say what it was, he just waved his hand, and a ray of light flashed on the city lord marks of the last five cities, which was a secret message given by the Demon Lord.

No one can see the content of the secret words. According to the Demon Lord, it will only be opened automatically after entering the secret realm and getting close to the thing.
