“They definitely won’t fight here. If a fight breaks out here, it will affect the people of the royal city,” Peng Zhen said directly after he came up.
After looking around, Liu Lanyan turned and rushed off in one direction.
She could already sense the aura of the demon god, and she was afraid that something unexpected might happen if the two of them really started fighting.
After leaving the royal city, Liu Lanyan went to look for them along the way. Just as they left the royal city, the demon lord in the royal palace also sensed their rapid departure.
"What? You're too scared to face it and you're just running away?" Yu Jinshuo said, sensing the sarcastic tone.
"Shut up!" the demon lord hissed. "Why are you always causing trouble?"
"You weren't like this before. How have you become so reckless?" The Demon Lord was extremely disappointed with Yu Jinshuo's recent behavior. "Yu Jinshuo, you are a prince of the Demon Realm and the future heir to the Demon Lord's throne. How can you be so frivolous?"
"People always need to have some backbone." Yu Jinshuo glanced at the Demon Lord, offering him an explanation.
He also realized that he had been acting strangely lately, especially when it came to Liu Lanyan, he would lose control.
He was actually doing things he would never have done before.
What's wrong with him?
He has important things to do, but the problem is, he just can't control the impulse in his heart.
The Demon Lord sighed softly and said nothing.
He realized that Yu Jinshuo was still angry, and there was no way Yu Jinshuo would listen to anything he said at this moment.
Let's talk to Yu Jinshuo slowly after we've dealt with this matter.
“He won’t run away.” The Demon Lord brought the topic back, still thinking about the man in blue. “That person is not one to run away. He should come after he has settled things with the Lord.”
Actually, he would have preferred that the man in blue be killed while dealing with the demon god, so that all the trouble would be resolved.
"How are your injuries?" the Demon Lord asked Yu Jinshuo with concern.
"They're all superficial wounds, nothing serious." Yu Jinshuo feigned indifference. He had used the best medicine in the demon realm, and his injuries were clearly improving.
Moreover, his demonic power level is not low, and he recovers extremely quickly.
While Yu Jinshuo was still pondering how to deal with the man in blue, outside the royal city, in the distant desolate mountains, the sounds of clashing forces could be heard incessantly.
When Peng Zhen and Liu Lanyan arrived, they were both taken aback.
It is no exaggeration to describe this place as devastated.
Two people in the distance were locked in a fierce battle, truly evenly matched opponents.
The demon god is indeed very powerful, but he doesn't use his special moves casually.
Moreover, the Demon God didn't think he needed to use all his strength to defeat the man in blue. So the Demon God only used power equivalent to the ninth-level demon power. He originally thought he would easily defeat the man in blue, but unexpectedly, the man in blue neutralized his power.
Ninth-tier demonic power!
This realization greatly surprised the Demon God. At this time, in the Demon Realm, people with ninth-level demon power could be counted on one hand.
However, the demon god knew perfectly well that this man in blue was definitely not among them.
Moreover, the man in blue is not very old, so how could he have ninth-level demonic power?
Having realized this, the demon god did not immediately subdue the man in blue. Instead, it was a test, an attempt to gauge the man's true strength.
Therefore, the demon god would increase the power of each attack, little by little, to test the waters.
To the demon god's surprise, the man in blue had been able to deflect his attacks from the beginning until now.
Such a young age and such profound demonic power truly astonished the Demon God.
"You are very strong," the demon god praised sincerely.
"Definitely." The man in blue's blunt words left the Demon God speechless. Was this man being too arrogant?
But who can blame him for having the right to be arrogant?
"If you don't compete with me for Lan Yan, I will take you as my subordinate." The demon god was giving the man in blue a way out.
He cherishes talent, especially from such a strong person.
Peng Zhen was shocked to hear the Demon God's words. How could the Lord be so generous as to keep someone who had designs on Miss Liu?
"I will send you to the most important position in my most important mission." The demon god's next words almost made Peng Zhen stumble and fall to the ground.
Others might not know, but he was well aware that the mission was located thousands of miles away from here; it was like recruiting subordinates and then sending them out.
Enough... Can he say... something sarcastic?
"Dream on!" the man in blue replied without hesitation.
The demon god sneered, "Since that's the case, you have no reason to live." As he spoke, his power suddenly surged, aiming to kill the man in blue with a single blow.
"Stop!" Seeing the situation was not right, Liu Lanyan rushed over and stood in front of the man in blue.
"Lanyan, you..." The Demon God felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart. Lanyan had actually protected that man.
"You can't touch him."
"You care about him that much?" the demon god asked with heartache, as if he had been thrown to the bottom of a valley, every bone in his body felt shattered, and he was in unbearable pain.
"Of course, he..."
"Since that's the case, I'm even more determined to kill him. Even if you blame me later, I will absolutely not allow him to exist!" The Demon God interrupted Liu Lanyan's words, speaking fiercely with a chilling killing intent that no one could stop.
The power of the demon god was concentrated, and a storm of power surged rapidly. If this attack were to be unleashed, it would surely be earth-shattering!
"You dare touch my brother and see what happens!" Liu Lanyan shouted angrily!
The surging power suddenly solidified, and the demon god was completely petrified...
elder brother?
Chapter 98 Deliberately Picking a Fight
With a "poof," the power that the demon god had gathered vanished like a bubble in the sunlight.
After so many years, experiencing surprise again left the Demon God... completely bewildered.
Peng Zhen stared at the Venerable Master with his mouth agape in astonishment, as if he had seen a ghost. What was going on?
Did the Lord offend his own brother-in-law?
Oh no, this situation has become complicated.
Peng Zhen covered his eyes with his hands; he couldn't bear to watch what happened next.
At this moment, the situation here is extremely strange.
Liu Lanyan stared at the Demon God with a sullen face, while the man in blue behind her looked at the Demon God with a mocking, half-smiling expression.
The situation of the demon god is more complicated and unpredictable. It's easy to tell how turbulent and agitated his emotions are without even asking.
The demon god's perfectly exquisite face twisted twice, as if he wanted to laugh, but he didn't quite succeed.
"Lanyan, is this your brother?" The demon god's voice lacked its usual ease, carrying a barely perceptible dryness.
This news was so exciting that even he hadn't expected it.
“My own brother.” Liu Lanyan nodded affirmatively.
“But…” the demon god still wanted to make one last attempt, “You never said you had a brother.”
"You didn't ask." Liu Lanyan's irritating words left the Demon God speechless. Well, he hadn't asked.
The question is, why would he ask such a question?
The demon god tried hard to search his memories of the Liu family, but he didn't remember Liu Lanyan having an older brother.
As if she could see through the demon god's thoughts, Liu Lanyan snorted coldly: "My brother left home when I was very young and had an 'accident,' so no one knows."
After saying this, the Demon God glanced at Peng Zhen. He didn't know about this information, but Peng Zhen should know it, right?
Peng Zhen shook his head helplessly; he hadn't even considered that possibility.
In any case, since Liu Lanyan has admitted that this person is her brother, then it is definitely him, without any doubt.
The problem is, if he really is Liu Lanyan's brother, wouldn't that be a huge problem for him?
"How should I address you, young master?" The demon god tried his best to keep his face calm, but only he knew whether he was truly calm inside.
The man in blue smiled slightly and introduced himself: "Liu Wenxiu."
"So it's Brother Liu." The Demon God considered for a long time but still didn't call him "brother" rashly. Judging from Liu Wenxiu's expression, he might not agree if he did. It was better to take things slowly.
"No need to be so polite. I am unworthy of being called 'brother' by the Venerable One." Liu Wenxiu smiled politely, but to the Demon God, that smile was infuriating no matter how you looked at it.
If it were anyone else, the Demon God would have simply punched them, making them disappear from the world forever.
But would he do that to Liu Wenxiu?
That's simply impossible.
Who is that?
Would he dare to hit Liu Lanyan's brother?
"Lanyan, let's go home." Liu Wenxiu gently placed his hand on Liu Lanyan's shoulder and asked softly.
"Young Master Liu has just returned. I wonder if there is a place for him to stay? If so..." The Demon God wanted to quickly take Liu Lanyan back so he could properly ask her what had happened.
"No need to trouble Your Majesty, I have a residence in the royal city." Liu Wenxiu politely declined, and fearing that the demon god might not understand, he added, "It's always inconvenient for a lone man and woman to be together."
If anyone else had said those words, the Demon God would have absolutely scoffed.
What does it matter if it's a man and a woman alone? He can do whatever he wants.
However, it was Liu Wenxiu who said those words.
Who is Liu Wenxiu?
