"Comers, stop here. This is the important place of the Nanchu Houfu. No idlers are allowed to enter!" The soldier guarding the gate of the Houfu dropped the bronze sword in his hand and pointed at Ito Cheng who was climbing the steps in front of him and yelled.

"Please, please go inside and inform the Marquis that Chen Xicheng has arrived." Ito Cheng politely raised his fists towards the two of them and said in a warm voice with a smile on his face.

Seeing that Ito Cheng's face was kind, his tone was gentle, and he didn't have the aura of a treacherous and evil person, the two guarding soldiers immediately relaxed, stood the bronze gun beside them again, and said, "Okay, okay.

Please wait."

Ito Cheng nodded slightly and agreed with a smile.

The soldiers who received the reply did not hesitate, and one of them continued to stay at the door, while the other went back into Ru's mansion to report to E Chongyu, Marquis of Southern Chu.

It wasn't until nearly five minutes passed that the soldier who had taken the notice earlier ran back panting.

"Quickly, open the door!" The soldier grabbed his companion guarding the door and said.

"ah?"

"Open the door quickly, the Marquis will be here soon." At this time, the soldier who had taken a breath said, then walked quickly to the door, grabbed the handle, and opened the door to one side.

"Crunch~"

At the same time, another soldier who came to his senses quickly followed suit and opened the remaining doors.

In an instant, the road leading to the main residence at the far end of the mansion appeared in front of Ito Cheng's eyes. At this time, he saw on the wide road, the Marquis of Southern Chu E Chongyu and his wife Xuan Ji with black and white faces.

There were more than a dozen guards walking on it, and they quickly walked towards the gate to greet them.

"Oh, the Demon King is coming. Some of you are not welcomed from afar, and some are not welcomed from afar. Please forgive me." When he was still four or five meters away from the gate, E Chongyu quickly raised his fists, with a smile on his face.

He saluted and greeted Ito Cheng with a smile.

With such a mean and humble look, it is really hard for people to believe that this guy is a powerful and dominating monarch, rather than a philistine businessman walking in the market.

But behind him, the fair-skinned Bai Xiang and the dark-skinned Hei Xiang changed their expressions slightly when they heard E Chongyu's name to Ito Cheng, and they looked at each other involuntarily, and both looked at each other from the other's eyes.

A look of astonishment could be seen.

You know, although they in Nanchu don't care about good and evil demons, they even support a big 'demon'. But that is a person in the world, a martial arts master, and a lone ranger! They are not a force like the demon clan! What's more, the other party still returned in the first place.

The great merchants were branded as rebellious, and they are still a clan that must be exterminated to this day!

"What are you going to do to entertain the Lord of the Demons so blatantly!? Could it be..." Black and White couldn't help but secretly thought in their hearts.

"Thank you for your help, Lord Hou. He actually went out to greet you in person. You really gave Chen a lot of face, so what's the crime?" Ito Cheng picked him up and walked away. As he stepped into the Hou Mansion, he smiled at E Chongyu who came up to him.

He said, "What's more, the Hou is the Hou of Dashang and is not a citizen of Chen. What right does Chen have to punish the crimes of the Hou? The Hou really loves to joke."

"Haha. What the Demon Lord said is true, what the Demon Lord said is true." E Chongyu agreed with a dry smile.

"Demon Lord, Lord Hou, this is not the place to talk. Let's invite the Demon Lord in first." Xuan Ji, who really couldn't stand the false greetings of Ito Cheng and E Chongyu, said quickly.

"Madam is right. Demon Lord, please." E Chongyu quickly agreed after hearing the words, and then stretched out his arms in invitation.

"Please." Ito Cheng followed suit and said politely.

Then everyone stopped staying at the door and walked along the avenue to the main residence at the end of the mansion, until they finally stopped in front of a spacious room. At this time, E You'er, E Potian and another

The figure of a young woman wearing smart clothes and a slightly cold expression appeared in Ito Cheng's eyes.

It’s none other than the leader of the Thunder and Lightning Sect, Qing’er!

And what surprised Ito Cheng a little was that Epoten, who he had expected to be a useless person and spend his life in bed, not only stood in front of him intact. He was also full of energy and divine light.

Flashing, completely transformed, with greatly improved skills.

"Interesting." Ito Cheng's eyes roamed around E Potian's body with interest, and he secretly said with a smile on his lips.

"I've met my father (uncle) and mother (ma'am)." E You'er, E Potian and Qing'er saluted and greeted each other.

"Master Hou, why don't you introduce me?" Ito Cheng continued to ask, pretending not to know.

"Demon Lord, this is my daughter You'er and my son Potian." E Chongyu pointed at E Chongyu and E Potian respectively and introduced.

"You'er, Potian, this is His Majesty the Demon Lord of the Demon Clan." Then, E Chongyu pointed at Ito Chengchao and introduced them.

"E You'er (E Potian) has met the Demon Lord." E You'er and E Potian hugged each other and greeted each other.

"You are so lucky, Mr. Hou! Not only are their children beautiful in appearance and extraordinary in martial arts, but they are also so profound in cultivation that they can be ranked among the best in the world. It seems that Mr. Hou has a successor." Ito.

Chengxu came up with a long talk and complimented him.

"Where, where." E Chongyu said with a smile as modest as a chrysanthemum. Then he moved his arm and pointed at Qing'er standing next to E Potian and introduced, "This is the owner of the Thunder Gate of the Western Regions.

, Miss Qing'er."

"Oh?" Ito Cheng asked, looking at Qing'er.

"I have long heard how powerful the Western Region Thunder Gate is, and I don't know if it is really as powerful as the rumors say. Miss Qing'er, would you like to let Chen know it?" Ito Cheng said provocatively with a half-smile, and turned a

The image of militants with demonic origins was clearly presented in everyone's eyes.

"Since the devil will not give up, Qing'er should accompany him." As the leader of a force, Qing'er replied tit for tat.

"Okay!" Ito Cheng praised.

"Lord Demon Lord, you have just arrived. You must be very tired after a long journey. How about letting the competition go first? After today's reception banquet, you have had enough rest and can compete with Miss Qing'er."

E Chongyu on the side quickly offered words of persuasion.

Although he was seeded, it does not mean that he has lost his thoughts, consciousness and memory. He is still the same person. He is just influenced by the spiritual seed and loyal to Ito Cheng. Naturally, Qing'er took out the medicine to save him.

His son, who is very powerful and seems to have the potential to become his daughter-in-law, is somewhat biased towards a woman.

"My Lord Demon Lord's martial arts skills are unparalleled, so what does it mean to just travel and travel? Do you think, Lord Hou, that the Demon Lord will lose?" However, E Chongyu had just finished speaking, and when others had not yet come to answer the question hurriedly, Xuan Ji beside him said:

He suddenly spoke.

As soon as these words came out, except for Ito Cheng and Qing'er who were both of the world, everyone present immediately changed their colors.

Among them, E Chongyu's face was anxious, fearing that Ito Cheng would misunderstand him. Although E Potian's face did not move much, when Xuanji finished speaking, a cold light full of murderous intent could not be suppressed from his eyes.

Come out. E You'er's mouth moved slightly, as if she was about to say something, but in the end she fell silent and didn't say a word. Xuan Ji sneered, her black and white eyes showed worry, and the eyes of the other soldiers who followed showed excitement.

To name a few.

Ito Cheng glanced at Xuan Ji with a half-smiling expression, then returned his gaze to Qing'er, and said with a faint smile, "Yes, a little fatigue from traveling and traveling is not worth mentioning to Chen. How about, Qing'er's Gate

Do you want to compete with Chen now?"

"No, in order to prevent people from spreading gossip, let's wait until the Demon Lord has had enough rest before starting." Qing'er also glanced at Xuan Ji with a sneer on her face, looking like she was ready for a show, looked at Ito Cheng and smiled.

.

As soon as Qing'er finished speaking, the expression on Xuan Ji's face immediately froze. However, she was a profound person in the city. She returned to normal in the blink of an eye. She took advantage of the posture of the Marquis of the House and said softly, "That's really true."

It’s a pity, in that case, please come into the hall and take a seat.”

"Please." E Chongyu, who was afraid that Xuan Ji would cause trouble again, quickly greeted her.

Ito Cheng smiled softly and followed E Chongyu into the main hall. Then came Xuan Ji, E You'er, E Potian, Qing'er, Hei, Bai Shuangxiang and others... they came down in order of priority.

Among them, Ito Cheng, E Chongyu, and Xuan Ji are on top, sitting opposite each other. E You'er, E Potian, and Qing'er are in the middle, also sitting opposite each other. The last black and white pairs are at the bottom.

The tables sit flat, forming an octagon that doesn't look very orthodox, and they are placed in various places in the hall.

"Come here, serve the food!" Xuan Ji, who has the power to manage things in the palace, ordered loudly.

"yes."

Then the next moment, a large number of maids walked into the main hall, carrying drinks and vegetables one by one and placing them on the low table in front of everyone.

"I am extremely honored to have the Demon King come this time, so I only express my feelings with this wine." E Chongyu picked up the wine in his hand, bowed to Ito Cheng and said.

At the same time, I saw the master raising his glass, and the surrounding E You'er, Hei Xiang, Bai Xiang and others also raised their glasses and waved their respects to Ito Cheng.

"You're welcome, Mr. Hou." Ito Cheng also picked up the wine master and said politely.

Then he raised his hand and drank the wine in the cup. E Chongyu and others did the same.

Everyone pushed cups and changed cups, and the banquet officially began.

Just when everyone was intoxicated with wine, drinking quickly, and thought that today's banquet would end peacefully, E Potian on the side suddenly asked, "I wonder why the Demon King came to my Nanchu institute this time?"

The room fell silent for an instant. Black, White, Qing'er and others stopped drinking and looked up at Ito Cheng.

"Cough~" But before Ito Cheng could say anything, E Chongyu attracted everyone's attention with a slight cough and said, "The Demon King came to Nanchu this time to discuss the alliance between the two families."

"An alliance?" E Potian frowned and repeated.

As the former prince, he is very aware of the impact of forming an alliance with the demon clan represented by the Demon Lord.
