Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf - Chapter 1758: 988: Negotiating the Stakes!
Chapter 1758: Chapter 988: Negotiating the Stakes!
When the Demon Emperor’s Son resolutely spoke with such spiritual will, even the Heavenly Ghost fell silent for a moment, refraining from mocking him.
Because whether it was the Heavenly Ghost, Su Lin, or all the confidants present, they all saw a leader who was gambling his life and status to continue his father’s noble ambitions.
One must know that the national policy proposed by the Demon Emperor’s Son was extremely inconsistent with the current system!
The Lord of Ten Thousand Demons and his strongest ace armies had all fallen,
and the star stone veins and fragments of the star core, obtained after battling for several eras, were seized in that battle, leaving the Ten Thousand Demon System greatly weakened!
Moreover, the victorious Black Sun Clan had voluntarily signed a peace treaty with the Demon Star Lord.
This peace treaty is set to last for ten eras,
but this peace treaty can only take effect once the Demon Star Lord becomes the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons!
So, under such a long-standing peace treaty where no side has the upper hand in battle, who would still want the former national policy of the Demon Emperor?
One must acknowledge the Ten Thousand Demon System’s profound foundation, with its nebula layer containing a Level 5 Late Stage life star, two small constant stars, and thousands of second-class life planets.
As for the first-class life planets, they are almost innumerable!
Outside, there are four major Demon Emperors and over twenty dukes, almost uniting the scattered stars, small forces, and wandering experts within a dozen light-years.
It can be said that the geographical position of the Ten Thousand Demon System is truly advantageous,
such a vast area is dominated by them alone, without real threats.
But due to the Demon Emperor’s national policy, many great armies crossed the starry sky to fight the Black Sun Clan for the star core, but ultimately met with defeat and destruction.
The vast Ten Thousand Demon System has been emptied of hundreds of billions of ancestor-level military power annually due to years of warfare.
One could say that every tribe has grown to abhor war, each having once-glorious noble beasts perish with the Demon Emperor in the star core!
To aid the Blazing Flame Clan, to avoid being ruled by the Black Sun Clan and becoming servants, the Demon Emperor and the Ten Thousand Demon System paid a heavy blood price.
Thus, with such a long peace treaty, which exotic beast in the Ten Thousand Demon System would oppose?
Therefore, what the Demon Emperor’s Son referred to as fifty-fifty, in the eyes of the Heavenly Ghost and Su Lin, was not even thirty-seventy.
Yet everyone could see the resolute will of the Demon Emperor’s Son,
which kept the entire scene silent for a long time.
Finally, it was Su Lin who broke the silence: “Alright, Emperor’s Son, since things have reached this point, why not say more? What kind of price are you willing to pay to suppress the military uprising and coup of the Demon Star Lord?”
After Su Lin sent out this spiritual will, the Demon Emperor’s Son also pondered for a moment: “Brother Tian Gui, Brother Mo Peng, I have no certain reply for you, I just want to say that if you indeed assist me in succeeding, in the future, as long as the Ten Thousand Demon System exists, whatever you seek, the Ten Thousand Demon System will strive for it!”
“Heh, who wouldn’t speak empty words? Rather, state what exactly you can offer! Since you’ve expressed your determination, since we are here, we’ll naturally help, but we need to see the price you’re offering!”
Su Lin retorted with a cold laugh.
After all, which ruler of any force wouldn’t promise such grandiloquence?
When that day truly comes, who knows what it would be like!
Simply seeing the Demon Emperor’s Son treat Tian Gui and Mo Peng with such humility while subjected to such condescending questioning,
his personal commander wanted to step forward to defend his emperor’s prestige.
But just as he moved, a vast fluorescence flashed from Su Lin, and a terrifying soul power slammed this commander to the floor of the grand hall.
Cracked lines quickly spread densely across the entire Demon Hall.
The powerful aftershocks also changed the expressions of all the species present.
No one expected, not even the Heavenly Ghost, that Su Lin would take action so directly.
“I am speaking with your master, what qualification do you, this dog, have to bark incessantly here? Even safeguarding your master requires discernment. We are here to help, and is this how the Demon Emperor’s Son’s dogs treat a friend in support?”
The cold chill from Su Lin’s body surged violently.
This was not him violating his original agreement with the Heavenly Ghost,
just realizing that the Ten Thousand Demon System was a mess!
Based on “Unmentionable’s” prior behavior, if this fails, that taboo transmission foil paper might also be charged against him.
In these conversations with the Heavenly Ghost, Su Lin also realized that becoming “Unmentionable’s” backer made it hard to repay that favor.
The notion of paying off debts and obligations to freely leave “Unmentionable” was merely a beautiful dream.
Currently, Su Lin has already become the master of the Celestial Wolf System and owes less to “Unmentionable,”
thus, if the price the Demon Emperor’s Son offers is sufficient, he is willing to genuinely assist him!
One aspect is for obtaining massive resources!
Another aspect is to repay “Unmentionable’s” favor!
Therefore, now he is earnestly discussing with the Emperor’s Son, not a moment for a dog to bark incessantly!
After Su Lin displayed this demeanor, the Demon Emperor’s Son quickly rose and respectfully said: “Brother Mo Peng, there are many people and eyes here, please proceed to the inner hall!”
