Yun Hongce didn't speak again, and Xia Jinyu didn't continue to press.
This made Yuan Suiyun very confused. Although he was blind, he could still clearly observe the changes in Yun Hongce's expression with his mental power, and his emotional induction was more sensitive.
Therefore, he was extremely sure that the military advisor who had suppressed him before had broken through the first layer of psychological defense by Xia Jinyu's speculation.
If it were him, he would definitely pursue the victory at this time.
But after Xia Jinyu stared at Yun Hongce for three seconds, he took out the sound transmission token and started talking to someone unknown, while Yun Hongce was left alone.
After Feng Mo stripped off all the equipment of Chi Yanming, including the one of the Four Heavenly Kings captured alive by Xia Jinyu, Shen Shenying, he put down the token and shook the folding fan in his hand. He was lost in thought.
something.
"Master Yu..." Yuan Suiyun came to Xia Jinyu's side.
Xia Jinyu closed the folding fan in his hand and looked at the other party in surprise.
"Other people in the ghost market usually call me Master, or Shopkeeper Xia Si, Fourth Master Xia. This is my first time calling Master Yu."
"Because my goal is to become Lord Ghost Lord's right-hand man."
Xia Jinyu's eyes suddenly became dangerous.
"Young man, are you too ambitious? Are you trying to compete with me... Forget it, let's not mention this. You are still too far away from that position. Let's catch up with that boy Su Changqing first."
"Su...well, it's Mr. Poison Doctor..."
In the current power structure of the ghost market, the top one is naturally Ghost Lord Qin Fan, and the five giants below him are Tianshou, Disu, Yanshi, Master, Poison Doctor, and then the four great stewards and those with strength reaching
Ke Qing, a master in the Celestial Realm (including Huang Tiangui, Black Thirteen, Liu Yao, Shui Niesheng and others)
But in fact, the top leaders of the Ghost City know that there is still a layer between the Ghost Lord and the five giants.
Now, Yuan Suiyun's position belongs to one level below the four great housekeepers. In short, for him to reach the level of Su Changqing, he needs merit, opportunity, hard work and other factors.
However, for Yuan Suiyun, some pursuits can better stimulate his own potential.
So he was just slightly distracted and was not completely shocked by Xia Jinyu's words.
Then he suddenly remembered the reason why he spoke and quickly changed the topic back.
"Master Yu, what should we do next?"
"Tell me what you think."
"Your guess just now has been verified by the change in his expression. This means that there are great hidden dangers within the Red Demon Kingdom. With the character of the Red Emperor, he may not be willing to use the power of the entire country just to save the country.
Return to these three demons.
After all, if a fight really breaks out, the Chiluo Demon Kingdom must send out experts to contain Lord Feng. This candidate can only be chosen by himself, and with his strength, he will definitely die against Lord Feng.
Moreover, after the news that the military strategist was captured alive by the ghost market spread back to the Red Demon Kingdom, the Red Emperor may very well find that he has become a secretly supported puppet without knowing it. With his pride, he will not...
..."
"His Majesty the Red Emperor is not a puppet." Yun Hongce, who had been silent, interrupted him and said in a deep voice.
Yuan Suiyun frowned slightly, Xia Jinyu had already made it clear before, so what could the Red Emperor's brain be if it wasn't a puppet?
Just when he was about to refute, Xia Jinyu nodded in agreement:
"The Red Emperor is indeed not a puppet, otherwise he should not have been allowed to appear in the initial trial of using the Red Demons to stir up the demonic tide.
With your wisdom, there should be many ways to dispel his thoughts, but you did not do so, just because you respected every decision he made, even if many of his choices seemed stupid to you.
In other words, you don’t want to be the one behind the scenes of the Red Demon Kingdom. However, in the process of accumulating prestige, even if you forcefully shift the credit to the Red Emperor again and again, those bright-eyed demons still know that they are really supporting this.
Who is the devil of the kingdom?
Therefore, you have been avoiding using your own wisdom to control the Red Emperor's actions. Of course, it can also be said that you are very confident that with your ability, you can clean up all the troubles it caused."
Yun Hongce was silent. He had fully realized that the Xia Jinyu he was facing now was not on the same level as the previous Yuan Suiyun, so he would subconsciously be on the defensive.
But Yuan Suiyun on the side couldn't understand.
"Why? Is the Red Emperor your father? Or your biological son?"
"Repay kindness with kindness and revenge with hatred, that's what he just said." An inexplicable light flashed in Xia Jinyu's eyes.
"Just for kindness? Then you..." For a moment, Yuan Suiyun could not compare it with the cold and strong image of the wise man before, and then he frowned and said, "Master Yu, this should
It’s not like he’s deliberately guiding our thinking.”
Xia Jinyu shook his head.
"This Military Advisor Yun himself has no flaws, but the Red Emperor is a perfect teammate. Basically, the problems and doubts you and I found are all derived from the performance of the Red Emperor and are inferred to Military Advisor Yun and the entire Red Luo Demon Kingdom.
on the body.
In fact, it was a clever move for him to use the Red Demon Tribe to stir up the demonic tide.
For the exploration of an unknown environment, the first step is to assimilate it into a familiar field and hide your information as much as possible. You told me before that he created this demonic tide to buy time to investigate the intelligence.
.
This is one of the factors, but not the only one.
Think about the behavior of those Crimson Demons after they died, and the battle between the Crimson Emperor and the ‘Wind’ just now.”
Yuan Suiyun touched his chin and said with a clear expression:
"It's demonic energy. After the death of the Red Demons, the concentration of the demonic energy will increase. The demonic energy suppresses the human race and can increase the strength of the demons!
Of course, what's more important is that, like the Red Emperor, including those unknown masters of the Red Demon Kingdom, they should be able to use demonic energy to exert combat power far beyond their current level.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Just like the demonic armor that can block Master Feng's domain.
If we were to fight in the Far West Demon Realm, with the help of the self-repairing Demonic Armor, the Red Emperor would be able to completely ignore the wind blade attacks in the realm, and would not end up burning his vitality and fleeing in embarrassment."
"So there is nothing wrong with this step of the plan, which is to continuously send cannon fodder to die, so as to collect intelligence while arranging an absolute location suitable for one's own side, but the key point is that a Red Emperor who is different from the Red Demon Clan appears.
Although he is equally violent, bloodthirsty, and eager to fight, he will not lose all reason because of the red-eye killing. He will run when he is in danger. The time he was ambushed by Cihang's lineage, he ran more cleanly.
.
This has shown that his cruel side is his true character, rather than the negative state that the Red Demon clan fell into due to being too deeply infected by the demonic energy.
Therefore, as the abnormality of the Red Emperor is noticed by more people, the Red Demon Kingdom will no longer be able to hide it."
"This Red Emperor... is really..." It is difficult for Yuan Suiyun to explain his mentality. After all, according to the experience of the original owner of his destiny body, he was stabbed in the back by a pig teammate, so to a certain extent
To a certain extent, I can empathize with Yun Hongce.
But the problem with Yun Hongce is that he insists on taking the Red Emperor with him despite knowing that he is a pig teammate.
Although the Red Emperor is indeed very powerful, his character can bring far more harm than help to Yun Hongce, so as Xia Jinyu said, this Red Emperor is really not... and it should be said no
Worthy of being a puppet monarch.
After solving the doubts in his heart, Yuan Suiyun stopped talking, while Xia Jinyu stood in front of Yun Hongce and said:
"Actually, the Red Emperor isn't too bad. It's just that you helped him to a position he shouldn't have reached. This also caused more and more minor problems that he could have ignored to be exposed."
"Isn't the Red Emperor bad?" Yuan Suiyun was a little confused.
But when he thought about it carefully, he realized that if the Red Emperor was just a lone traveler, he really had no shortcomings to speak of.
Trash talk is considered a personal style, and the strength of the Great Perfection in the Celestial Realm is even more impeccable. As for his preference for fighting, it is quite normal for a warrior.
The only criticism of his performance is probably that he thinks of himself when in danger.
But can this be regarded as a shortcoming? As the saying goes, people will be destroyed if they don't do it for themselves, let alone demons.
For an egoist, he will definitely save his own life rather than bet on the probability of saving others. However, if this trait is placed on the monarch of a certain force, it will appear to be neither responsible nor responsible.
Of course, it may not be very smart, which can be considered a flaw.
But the Red Emperor's strong warning of approaching danger is more than enough to make up for this.
Therefore, as a pure solo traveler, or even as a guest affiliated to the Red Luo Demon Kingdom, his performance cannot be called a so-called pig teammate. He is simply too selfish and unwilling to risk his own life for his subordinates or friends.
risks of.
From a moral perspective, it is very disappointing, but from a legal perspective, it is really impossible to judge what is right or wrong.
When Yuan Suiyun figured this out, he suddenly felt that Yun Hongce had been cheating the Red Emperor.
After all, his behavior is to repay kindness with kindness and revenge with hatred, which also means that he is extremely emotional in some aspects. And with a selfish boss like himself as a comparison, the advantages and disadvantages that can be ignored will be more obvious.
Although the Red Emperor can summon a group of followers who value strength with his own strength, as time goes by, they will slowly understand that people like Yun Hongce who pay more attention to humanistic care are more worthy of loyalty.
Especially when the two disagree on something and make completely opposite decisions, this contrast in personal charm will be particularly prominent.
Therefore, Yuan Suiyun's expression when he looked at the other party became a little strange.
Yun Hongce ignored this and just said to Xia Jinyu:
"You know everything you should know, and you also know what you shouldn't know. Let me give you the result."
"Detaining the three of you might trigger a civil strife in the Chiluo Demon Kingdom."
"That would be cheaper for Buddha Land."
"But humans and demons are against each other..."
"From the beginning to the end, the people killed by the Red Demon Clan are Buddhists. This is their revenge for banishing our Demon Clan for thousands of years! Recently, the Curse Ministry is studying ways to transform humans into orthodox Demon Clan, and some gains have been made.
This means that the demon race was probably a human race a long time ago, but some changes occurred during this period due to various factors.
Therefore, this racial dispute is not valid at all. Let’s just say that there is no other difference between you and me in appearance except for the horns on our foreheads.”
"You really know how to talk." Xia Jinyu touched Yun Hongce's small silver horn. It was not as hard as expected, but quite interesting. Then he received an angry look from Yun Hongce, "Is touching the corner a taboo?"
"Yeah." Yun Hongce didn't want to explain in this regard as he was touched.
"Okay, I just informed Lord Ghost about what's going on here. His order is to put this..."
Looking at the direction of Xia Jinyu's finger, Yun Hongce said quickly.
"He is the Lord of the Night Army, Chi Yanming. He is under the Four Heavenly Kings and is also a high-level member of the Red Demon Kingdom. He is very close to me on weekdays. As long as he holds my military advisor order, he can temporarily replace me.
Give the order."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are so smart, you actually guessed that the Lord wants to let one of you three demons go back."
"Now I have confirmed that the Ghost Lord has no discrimination or prejudice against the demons." Yun Hongce breathed a sigh of relief without concealing it, and then said, "How are the peripheral members of the Night Division?"
"There are one hundred and thirty-nine in total, and they are all still alive."
"Then can we put them back together?"
Xia Jinyu looked at Yun Hongce inexplicably. He did not answer directly, but said:
"You were the one who pushed for this incident. Although you later speculated that I, Ghost City, also wanted to use the demonic tide to unite people's hearts, you were looking for trouble from the beginning. What's more, you were interested in Xiao Yuanzi and...
What this little girl did can be seen as a provocation to our ghost market.
If the Lord can be lenient to you at this time, can it be regarded as a great favor?"
"It is not what a gentleman does to repay a favor." Yun Hongce said in a deep voice.
"It's me who is asking for favor, not the Lord. As the Lord's confidant, there are some things that I need to do, and I need to remind you."
"Then what if I don't acknowledge this kindness?"
"Actually, I still have doubts in my mind whether this repaying kindness persona was deliberately disguised by you. Even your change in attitude is a backup plan, so next I will investigate the situation of the Red Demon Kingdom carefully.
.
If there is anything wrong at all, I can confirm that you are using this persona to achieve ulterior purposes, and then I will get rid of you first."
Xia Jinyu said with a smile, but Yuan Suiyun, who was standing behind him, felt a cold wind blowing inexplicably, and at some point, Feng Mo, who had been closing his eyes to rest, also raised his head and looked at Yun Hongce, his eyes as cold as cold knives.
There is quite a sense of drawing out the sword if there is a disagreement.
Yun Hongce faced the gazes of the two people without blinking. His emotions, which had been slightly out of control due to Xia Jinyu's speculation, had returned to stability at this moment, and his state had returned to his original calmness and rationality.
"Nine truths and one falsehood will create the most difficult lies to see through. I also admit that the current situation is indeed what I expected. As for the character... I know very well that a demon like me will be very interested in an ambitious monarch.
How attractive it is, let alone what I stand for, is not mine.”
"So, when we see through your backup plan, the Lord is still ready to cooperate with you."
"Then I, Yun Hongce, will recognize this kindness."
