The three monsters were defeated and fled to Gaiyuan City, and only Yanxiu escaped. He covered his aching buttocks and accelerated all the way to Xiangliu King City.
After hearing the whole story, especially Kong Ji's insistence on meeting Liu Cong, Liu Xian, who was usually calm in the face of emergencies, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
When Liu Xian was an official in the court, he was an important minister assisting the Demon King. In the Xiangliu clan, he was an elder-level figure. He had seen all kinds of monsters and demons. After careful thinking, he quickly came to his senses.
There is a problem.
There were problems right from the start!
Yanxiu and Kong Ji have a close personal relationship. If there is any conflict, they will just laugh it off and will never turn against each other.
Even if they really fell out, the two demons, as the leaders of their clan, were demon kings who knew the big picture and knew when to advance and retreat. They knew what was right and what was wrong, especially Kong Ji, and would not let the situation get out of control.
Let’s look at Yanxiu again. He was defeated for the first time and brought back two helpers. He was defeated for the second time and continued to seek help...
The question is, will there be a third or fourth time
Haha, who are you two playing here
After figuring out the key, Liu Xian probably understood something. He smiled and nodded to Yan Xiu, "Honghu Demon King, I understand the cause and effect of this matter. You can go down and recuperate. This matter started because of Kong Ji and will end because of him. I will not let your Honghu clan suffer humiliation in vain."
"Elder Liu Xian, I am not seriously injured, and I still have a chance to fight..."
"You are too polite, Demon King Honghu. Our clans have known each other for many years. We are one family and should not have different opinions. Take good care of your injuries. I will let my Xiangliu clan handle the rest."
"In that case, thank you very much, Elder." Seeing that Liu Xian was soft but firm, Yan Xiu didn't dare to say anything else and left the house in frustration.
I tasted it and it didn't taste right. It seems that Big Brother Suzaku is not a decent person. How could he cheat a little brother like that
Liu Xian didn't trust Yan Xiu. He trusted people when he employed them, and if he didn't trust them, he would not employ them. He decisively kicked them out.
The Honghu clan has served the Xiangliu clan for many years. Even if they have no merits, they have worked hard. Liu Xian, considering their friendship, will not make a big fuss. He will just give them a few warnings afterwards and the matter will be over.
Liu Xian looked three steps ahead before taking one step, planning the whole process and consequences, and guessed that there was someone from the Gu Diao clan behind Kong Ji's actions.
As a royal family, the Gu Diao clan is much more difficult to deal with than Kong Ji.
"Taking advantage of the time when the eight royal families are gathered together to fish in troubled waters, the Gu Diao clan has made progress this time, but do you have the ability to do so?"
Liu Xian was not in a hurry to find the clan leader. It was not necessary. If the clan leader had to step in for everything, wouldn't he, as an elder, become a decoration
He decided to wait a little longer, at least until he received a reply from the Gu Diao clan.
During this period, we also have to make plans against Kong Ji.
Liu Xian pondered for a long time, and then his mind went outside the house, calling several tribesmen over, and instructed them, "You guys do this and that, this and that... Do you understand everything?"
"We obey your orders."
"Go quickly and come back quickly. Remember, peace is the most important thing. Don't cause any trouble."
After several Xiangliu snake monsters left, Liu Xian thought about it and took out the abacus beads and fiddled with them, muttering to himself, "It's still not right. The Gu Diao clan is not so bold. I'm afraid there are other royal families involved in this matter."
"The Demon King's ruling methods are average. He can fight and kill but cannot win the support of the people. The Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom is about to be in chaos again."
Liu Xian put away his abacus, summoned the four great generals guarding the royal city, and ordered martial law throughout the city. Once there was any sign of trouble, the Star Formation would be activated, and he would personally preside over the formation at that time.

Time flies and a day has passed.
In Gaiyuan City, Lu Bei looked up at the sky, feeling quite dissatisfied that he had not received any experience that came to him.
Every demon cultivator in the Far West is like Xun Yu, and the demon race in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons is extremely mature. Each demon and monster is more shrewd than the other. It is very difficult for a righteous person like him to gain some experience.
Fortunately, he was not idle. He went to the tutor's room last night and, under the pretext of lack of demonic energy, wanted to apply some facial masks to the tutor.
The Grand Tutor said nothing, just smiled calmly and gave a decisive look in return.
If you have the courage, try it!
Lu Bei was silent. Although he was very confident in his immortal sword body, he was prepared for the worst. In order to avoid any psychological trauma, he took a second choice and decided to use a safe method.
That night, the Grand Tutor slaughtered hundreds of millions of people, his hands became sticky, and because of this battle, he was tainted with the evil spirit of the unity of heaven and man.
Ignoring the process and only looking at the results, Lu Bei thought of things that ordinary people could not imagine, and developed a new way of achieving the unity of man and nature. This was the first time since the beginning of the world, and his understanding reached an unprecedented level.
When there is nothing to do, they play music and dance.
There was singing and dancing in Gaiyuan City, but the scene in Peacock City was quite different.
Kong Ji and Kong Ci are a loving father and a filial son at home. Kong Ji couldn't stand the daily scolding, so he left home in shame amid Nidan's ridicule and went to his concubine's place to avoid the limelight.
Kong Ji ran away from home and there was no news of him. In addition to avoiding the buzzing rebellious egg, he also wanted to create an egg behind closed doors.
Strangely enough, it is not easy for a peacock to lay eggs. After years of hard work by Kong Ji, only his wife hatched an egg, while his concubines got nothing.
The effort and reward were not proportional, which made him suspect that the peacock clan was cursed by God.
On this day, Kong Ci was wandering around as usual, looking for his dog father.
The father and son were like playing hide-and-seek. Kong Ji moved his concubine everywhere, while Kong Ci was looking for her everywhere. Once he found her, the concubine would be in trouble. At best, she would be beaten, and at worst, she would be swallowed.
"Brother Kong! Brother Kong—"
In the city, Kong Ci was wandering around. As he walked, he heard someone calling from behind him and stopped to look.
There were three snake monsters from the Xiangliu clan. Kong Ci remembered one of them, his name was Liu something, he was a second generation rich man who just lived a life of idleness and waiting to die. Because he was born well, he was awarded the title of Monster King during the fusion period.
Receiving a salary every year and having money to spend every month, it becomes natural to just eat and wait for death.
"Brother Liu, why are you here?" Kong Ci showed surprise. The good brothers had not seen each other for many years, and they were very warm and welcoming.
"I was free anyway, so I accompanied my two brothers out for a walk. Unexpectedly, we ended up heading west and arrived at Peacock City." Liu Jian was also surprised to meet his good friend by chance, and he pulled Kong Ci aside to ask him to recommend local specialties.
Kong Ci was helpless and the Peacock tribe was dwindling in numbers. There was no tribe smaller than the Peacock tribe in the entire Ten Thousand Demons Country. The huge Peacock City was mostly populated by small, mixed-race demons. The city was only prosperous thanks to the upstart Kong Ji.
Furthermore, Kong Ji was anxious to continue his family line, so he kept Te Dian as a concubine.
The three snake demons felt very disappointed, but since they were already here, they didn't want to leave disappointed, so Liu Jian treated Kong Ci to a drink at the Fugui Restaurant in the city.
Kong Ci was in a hurry to find his useless dog father, so he had no time to bother with the snake demon. Besides, he couldn't even remember Liu Jian's name. They were really unfamiliar with each other. It didn't matter whether he drank the wine or not.
But the atmosphere has reached this point, I have to go even if I don’t want to.
This is how the world works.
When they arrived at Peacock City, Kong Ci was the undisputed host. It was only right and proper for him to treat everyone to a feast. He took the three snake demons for a stroll along the street and then walked straight into a restaurant.
After a few drinks, the elder brother and his younger brothers became even more intimate.
"Brother Kong, I have been traveling abroad for many years and have just returned to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters. How are you doing? Have you been named the Monster King?"
"… "
"Hahaha, it seems that Brother Kong has made up his mind. It was me who said too much."
Liu Jian smiled and picked up the wine glass, advising: "The title of Monster King sounds impressive, but it is actually dispensable. For example, my two brothers are both Monster Kings. We are all equal, and no one is inferior to anyone else."
At first glance, it sounds like persuasion, but upon closer listening, it's clearly showing off.
Kong Ci said sourly: "I think so too. He is just a demon king. It doesn't matter whether he exists or not. We demons still have to speak with our fists in the end."
"If Brother Kong really cares, there are ways to deal with it."
"No need. When I outlast my father, the title of Peacock Demon King will naturally be mine."
"…" x3
There was a sudden silence at the table. Liu Jian's eyelids twitched. After a while, he praised: "Brother Kong has great ambitions. We cannot catch up with him."
"Don't talk about this, it's unlucky."
Kong Ci waved his hand and lowered his voice and said, "Brother Liu just said that you have a way to become the Demon King. What's your plan?"
"It's easy. Go to the border of the Ten Thousand Demons Country, the area bordering the human race, and you can get the title of Demon King."
"It's pretty simple, but..."
Kong Ci thought it was some clever trick, but shook his head in disappointment. He wanted to go out and travel far away, but this family couldn't do without him.
Kong Ji was very keen on reproducing his bloodline and kept many concubines. Kong Ci could easily imagine that without his strict discipline, Kong Ji would become even more unruly and would not come home for three days at a time. His mother would not even be able to find a bird to talk to and would sooner or later become depressed and sick.
It’s not right, the demon king might as well not do it!
"That's right. Brother Kong is the only son in the family. He has extraordinary bloodline talent and cannot easily go to the human border."
At this point, Liu Jian complained bitterly, saying that when he was young, he was ignorant and believed the lies of the elders of the tribe. The foolish husband went to the border, thinking it was a good job, but he almost died in the desolate Shiwan Mountains.
Upon hearing about the unfortunate incident, Kong Ci immediately became happy and asked Liu Yu to explain it in detail.
There is no other meaning. Happiness that cannot be built on the suffering of others is incomplete happiness.
Liu Li rolled his eyes and scolded Kong Ci. The atmosphere at the table was very lively. He thought he was unlucky and talked about how he encountered a powerful enemy and how he escaped with his life.
"That sounds dangerous!"
"Who said it wasn't true? I almost couldn't come back..."
Two hours later, the bird and three snakes left the restaurant arm in arm. Liu Jian said that he was still in high spirits and wanted to have a second round. This time he would host Kong Ci and invite him to Xiangliu Royal City.
Features over there.
There are many characteristics, but Kong Ci said he didn't care and just wanted to have a few drinks to get rid of the bad luck.
Liu Jian was unlucky, and so was he. When he went out, he encountered evil spirits and not a single bird feather was left on his butt.
Being young and ignorant, he naively thought that there was only one way for the buttocks to hurt. Later he realized that he had misunderstood his uncle.
As a peacock, having its colorful tail feathers plucked out is a great vengeance, but considering that his great uncle was fair and did not let his father, the dog in the family, go, he did not care about this vengeance.

"Brother Kong, what good news are you talking about that makes you so happy? Tell us so we can all laugh together."
"It's not a big deal. It's just that my dad, that dead bird, was possessed by evil spirits and was beaten up by someone some time ago." Kong Ci said with a smile.
"…" x3
The three snakes' eyes all gleamed with light. They had found the important information and the reason why Kong Ji behaved out of character.
