The Western Demon Realm, the Lion City.
The Third City Lord Peng Demon King, who had not been seen for a long time, showed up again and toasted with the two big brothers, drinking happily.
He was free to do it, and the two big brothers did it.
The Great City Lord Nibi, whose true form is a golden-haired huo, is more like a zombie than a monster. It is unknown what species it was in life, it could be a monster or a human, but its corpse awakened and turned into a zombie, and gradually cultivated into the golden-haired huo it is today.
Zombies are rare in the world of immortal cultivation, but they are not surprising either. During Lu Bei's short career as an immortal cultivator, he encountered several self-awakened zombies.
When he first met Zhu Qilan, he encountered a zombie king. His physical body was occupied by the soul of a demon cultivator. After the soul of the demon cultivator died, the zombie king transformed into a corpse and awakened his intelligence.
If he had not died too early, he would have been only a hundred million points away from reaching the height of Nibi.
Then there is the corpse of the earth immortal Shuizeyuan, who opened his coffin and rose after awakening his spiritual intelligence. He was captured by the Tianjian Sect at that time and also cultivated the immortal sword intent of the Four-Unlike-Beast.
If he had not died too early, he would have been only a hundred million points away from reaching the level of abandoning the sutra.
The second city lord Huxie, there is nothing much to say about him, he has a chicken growing on his face and the geoduck has cultivated into a spirit.
"Third brother, where have you been these days? You haven't come for a long time. The wine in my glass is almost gone." Nibi complained, with happiness written all over his face.
Hu Xie poured wine on the side, nodded in agreement, and complained that the third brother did not treat his brothers with different surnames as his own brothers.
At first glance, the brothers seem to be friendly and harmonious.
In fact, Lu Bei was a brother who came to the door by force and conquered the two elder brothers with his fists and feet. When he was not around, Nibi and Huxie were so happy.
"To be honest with you, brothers, I have been hanging around in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters lately, barely making it. Thanks to the folks for not abandoning me, I can say that I have achieved success in my career."
Lu Bei picked up the wine glass with a half-smile on his face, which made Nibi and Huxie feel uneasy.
As we all know, a team can only maintain order and stability if the leader is both civil and military.
If the leader is a brute with more muscles than brains, the second-in-command must step up and take over the responsibility of being the brains of the team.
The Lion City has this kind of configuration. The city lord Nibi has a rough and impulsive personality and often does things according to his own ideas. The second city lord Huxie looks like a rough man, but he is actually very meticulous. He is not only the brain of the Lion City, but also the brake pad of Nibi. Without him running around to clean up the mess, the Lion City would have been swallowed up by other cities long ago.
Seeing Lu Bei's strange smile, Hu Xie felt a little creepy. Before his elder brother Nibi could speak, he asked, "Brother, tell me quickly, what achievements have you made in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters?"
"It's not much of an achievement, it's just a way to make a living."
Lu Bei put down his wine glass and pointed at his bird-like face: "You two elder brothers should know where I am from."
"…" x2
"Yes, it's the Golden Winged Dapeng!"
Lu Bei was not embarrassed at all. He poked his head out mysteriously and lowered his voice to continue, "The Demon King Tai'an of the Ten Thousand Demons Nation is also a Golden Winged Dapeng. My two brothers may wish to make some bold guesses about the relationship between me and the Demon King Tai'an."
“Hiss, hiss, hiss—”
Niebi took a deep breath, spilled the wine in his glass, stood up and said, "I never thought that my dear brother and His Majesty the Demon King are from the same clan. You are the Demon King... his biological brother from the same mother!"
Lu Bei: “…”
That's fine, we're pretty close to the truth.
Nibi is a man of few brains and a complete reckless man, so it is not difficult to understand why he has such a guess.
This is what a little brain looks like!
But Lu Bei was quite disappointed by Hu Xie standing aside. He had already pinned the correct answer on his forehead, but Hu Xie actually thought that what Ni Bi said made sense, and guessed that Demon King Peng was the younger brother of the second generation Demon King.
This is what thinking too much looks like.
Otherwise, it is bold to guess that the third city lord of Lion City, Peng Demon King, is the second generation Demon King
It's so funny. If you tell others about it, a group of monsters will laugh to death. Not to mention those far away, the Eight Kings of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters will be the first to disagree.
“I didn’t expect that my two brothers would find out after hiding it so deeply. That’s right, I am the biological brother of His Majesty the Demon King.” Lu Bei puffed out his chest. The script could still be used after some modification, so he simply didn’t bother to explain.
Nibi and Huxie hurriedly toasted, having heard of the Demon King's name for a long time, and it was like thunder in their ears, so they started to praise him.
Seeing the two demons' forced smiles, Lu Bei smiled slightly: "My two brothers..."
"No, no, my two brothers should call you brother."
"No, the elder is the elder brother and the younger is the younger brother. How can the etiquette and music be destroyed?"
"The wise one is the elder brother."
"No, no..."
After a few rounds of Tai Chi, Lu Bei insisted on his position as the youngest brother in the city. Nibi and Huxie smiled even more bitterly. The latter knew that he could not beat the opponent, so he said straight to the point: "I had previously guessed that you were from the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters. I didn't expect that you are the right-hand man of the Monster King. You came to see me today, but is your Majesty going to attack the Western You Monster Territory?"
The Xiyou Demon Realm has an awkward geographical location. To the north is the Kunlun Mountains, which separates it from the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom by tens of thousands of miles. To the east is the human kingdom, and to the west is the place where demon cultivation originated.
The reasons for its formation are quite complicated. Simply put, a group of monsters that were not welcomed by humans spontaneously formed an alliance and marked out a piece of land in the far west near the lair of the magic cultivators for the monsters to recuperate.
As the expansion of the Western You Demon Territory grew, the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom noticed this piece of pure land. However, because it was separated by the Kunlun Mountains and was within the sphere of influence of the human race, successive demon kings wanted to reach out, but were unable to do so.
The Demon Kings of all generations provided the source of blood or other resources for cultivation to build up their own forces in the Western You Demon Territory. A small number of demons, and most of the human demon cultivators, are more or less related to demons.
At first, these lackeys were very obedient, but later they realized that the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom had no control over the Xiyou Demon Territory. In addition, since they had become the city lords with high power, they would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix, and directly cut off ties with the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom.
The Western Demon Territory not only has the demon clan and demon cultivators supported by the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom, but also has forces planted by various human countries, such as Nibi, who is the Xu Ri Rat captured by the previous Xuanwu Jiang Suxin himself, and represents the interests of Zhao Qin in the Western Demon Territory.
Times have not changed, and the world of immortal cultivation has always been like this. It doesn’t matter what you cultivate, what is important is a flexible moral bottom line.
Later, the demon cultivators from the far west also became interested in the Western Demon Realm, and all the major mountain gates and forces opened branches here.
Here, you can see the Minotaur butcher setting up a stall to sell pork, and you can also see the vixen and the Taoist priests arm in arm, forming a group to explore the brothel invested by the magic priests at night. There is also no shortage of players making trouble, and the characteristics of the fairy world are all the rage.
The complicated relationship cannot be called muddy water, it is just a piece of muddy ground. If you don't have some ability, you will be stuck in it and unable to float even your bones.
The question is, why is the Xiyou Demon Realm attracting the attention of so many forces
trading.
Human race: Those who are not of our race must have different hearts!
Demon tribe: Get out of the way, who are you and your brother
Dao Xiu: We are worthy of heaven, earth, people, and our hearts. We travel the world to exterminate demons. You let me and the demons go hand in hand. Pah, I won't make any money from you.
Demon Cultivator: Shabby, very fucking shabby!
Demon cultivator: Open your dog eyes and see clearly, I am a human, not a demon.
Buddhist practice: Amitabha.
From the human race to the demon race, and further subdivided into the several major directions of human cultivation, everyone has their own stance, and conflicts and hatreds are almost impossible to resolve, and there is no possibility of cooperating to make money.
This is what happens on the surface; it is politically correct.
Privately, the complexly structured Xiyou Demon Realm has become the best trading place. Here, as long as you can solve the problem of money, all problems are not a problem.
Money is a relatively general term, meaning price. In the world of immortal cultivation, resources are the hard currency.
In the past, the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom was not powerful enough to extend its influence into the Western Demon Realm. But now it is different, as the second generation Demon Emperor Tai'an has ascended the throne.
Tai'an's rise was extremely short and so fast that it caught people off guard. He was called the great trend by all human countries. The great trend is unstoppable, and Tai'an cannot be stopped.
Looking at Tai'an's inhumane policies in the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom, he may not be as strong as the first Demon King, but he does not need to care about other people's opinions and can do whatever he wants. To the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom at this time, he is no different from the first Demon King.
The strong men of the human race were unable to assess the strength of the Demon Emperor Tai'an. They only knew that the Eighth King smiled and greeted him even when he was bullied, and did not dare to say a word.
This is why the smiles of Nibi and Huxie were forced. Taiyan had made arrangements early on and let his brother Peng Demon King intervene in the Lion City. It can be seen that he is an ambitious demon king with a strong desire for control. All places where there are demons in the world are included in his rule.
The chaos in the Xiyou Demon Realm is inevitable. The two of them are caught in the trap and have no choice but to follow the Demon King Peng even though they are unwilling.
The problem is, things have gotten out of hand, and the Demon King Peng can leave at any time. What should they do? If they stay, they will die. If they move to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, outsiders will inevitably be ostracized.
The wine in the glass immediately lost its flavor.
"Your Majesty has taken charge of the overall situation and has already made plans for everything. When the Lion Country is established, he will rule the world. Your two brothers have made great contributions. They can be the heads of all civil and military officials in the court. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be appointed as prime ministers and generals?"
"My dear brother, you don't know that I have some relationship with Zhao Qin. Although Jiang Suxin has gone to the underworld, there is still a great sword master named Tian Mingzi. Prince Xin Jiang Li once gave me a letter, asking me to do a good job. If I have any second thoughts, Tian Mingzi will come to see me with a sword." Ni Bi spoke helplessly. The cultivators of Zhao Qin are more powerful than each other, and the human race deserves to be a great country.
Is this true? That guy has such a good relationship with Tianmingzi, how come I don’t know about it
Lu Bei sneered, he was just a fox taking advantage of the power of the tiger, he told Nibi to be more positive, even if he got a scar as big as a bowl on his head, he could be a hero again if he turned into a corpse again after thousands of years.
"Not only that, the Far West is the real trouble spot. The demon cultivators are all tough guys. If the Western Demon Territory builds a country, they will take at least 70% of it."
70%, then I would have to beg for food on my knees, right
Lu Bei rolled his eyes. He knew very well what kind of demons there were in the Far West. Young demons were self-righteous and lacked the beatings of society, while old demons knew that being a coward was the best way to go.
"There is also the Holy Land of the Human Race. They are the ones who make the most money. Those shameless guys usually pat their chests and boast about how powerful they are, saying that their relatives are elders, that they are the insiders of the ancestor, and that the second grandfather can get so much goods with just one move. But when something goes wrong, hey, there is no such person. Tell me, isn't it infuriating..."
Nibi and Huxie kept talking, seemingly complaining, but actually they had some hidden meaning.
Lu Bei's head was buzzing when he heard this, and he slammed the table to stop the two demons from chattering.
"His Majesty has ordered that the founding of the Lion Country is a foregone conclusion. I'd like to ask you two brothers to compile a list, and His Majesty will make the arrangements when the time comes."
"What kind of list is that? Those that can be fought for and those that cannot be fought for?" His Majesty Ni realized.
“Hehehehe—”
Lu Bei smiled heartily and pointed at Ni Bi, saying, "Your vision is too low. Your Majesty only sees two kinds of people, the living and the dead. The city lords of the West You Demon Territory only have one choice: either get out or die."
"…" x2
"Don't worry, my two brothers. I have already asked His Majesty for permission. After the founding of the country, my elder brother Nibi will be the general of the army, and my second brother Huxie will be the prime minister in charge of government affairs."
Lu Bei gave the two demons a look and said, "Your Majesty will not rule the Lion Country. The power of the country... If you become rich and powerful, don't forget me. Brothers, don't forget me when you become rich and powerful."
"Are you serious?"
"My dear brother, your elder brother and I are not monsters who are greedy for power."
"Hehehe, spare your time, spare your time. Come, drink this cup to the full."
"Okay, it's all in the wine!"
The atmosphere at the table immediately became cheerful. A female official from the fox tribe led the dance and flirted with the Demon King Peng.
General stuff.
Lu Bei spoke firmly and simply ignored the beauty that was delivered to his door. Things were different now. He had seen too many vixens, and his aesthetic standards had increased day by day. In a sense, he was no longer interested in women.
"By the way, my dear brother, I forget everything after drinking a little."
Seeing that Lu Bei had little interest in the female official of the Fox Clan, Hu Xie secretly felt sorry for his subordinate. He slapped his forehead and took out a jade slip.
"What is this?"
"A letter from the Far West. A demon cultivator named Xing Li came to look for you. When he saw you were not there, he left this jade slip." Hu Xie explained.
Who is Xing Li
You mean Asi, right
Lu Bei remembered that the last time he ended the secret realm in the far west, he handed the Great Demon Jiuxiu to Lu Xi and asked him to investigate the traces of the remaining demon soldiers.
The Nine Rifts of the Great Demon are nine magic weapons, which may be the key to a secret realm, or they may be related to the demons from outer space.
Everyone knows Lu Xi's strength. Apart from being good at playing with women, he is useless for everything else. Lu Bei is worried that he might fail at a critical moment, so he allows him to find clues. If he encounters troubles that he cannot solve, he can go to Lion City to find the third city lord, Peng Demon King. If he can't find him, he can leave a note on the jade slip.
Lu Bei took the jade slip and scanned it at a glance. Perhaps because he was afraid that the news would leak out, Lu Xi did not say much in the letter. He just asked Lu Bei to hurry up and find time to meet with him.
I'm busy with so many things every day and I really can't spare time!
Lu Bei calculated the time and found that there were only five days left until the death anniversaries of the Azure Dragon and White Tiger that Yinglong had specified.
It was neither long nor short, enough for him to go to Yunzhong Pavilion to gain some experience.
There is no rush for Lu Xi. We will see each other in five days.
…
After the banquet, Lu Bei took a quiet room and flew to an uninhabited valley. He summoned the black-winged golden-eyed eagle, took out the source of his own golden-winged Roc bloodline, and upgraded its bloodline.
The Black-winged Golden-eyed Eagle originated from the Immortal Continent. Lu Bei refined it into a clone and controlled it as if it were his own arm. Although he did not understand the magical power of splitting the soul, his original spirit was powerful. He could perfectly control the clone by just splitting a wisp of divine consciousness carrying his will.
After taking the source of bloodline, the Black-Winged Golden-Eyed Eagle's body became like a furnace, emitting billowing steam like a branding iron. The bird, which had not yet transformed, not only encountered the transformation calamity, but also continuously triggered the thunder calamity of the tribulation period.
Brother Tian, we are one!
The thunder suddenly became smaller, and the local rainfall did not seem like a thunder disaster at all. The noise made by a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm practicing thunder magic was louder than this.
Black-winged golden eagle.
Tianpeng.
Golden-winged Roc.
The bloodline in Lu Bei's body has almost reached the peak that the Golden Winged Roc clan can reach. With one tube of blood, he directly filled up the experience bar for the evolution of the Black Winged Golden Eyed Eagle, and glimpsed the threshold of the Golden Winged Roc. A wingspan of 200 feet is quite majestic.
Lu Bei did not insist on the transformation of the clone, nor did he give it a pretty face. He just pinched a bird face and threw the Fang Tian Hua Ji: "From today on, you are the Demon King Peng."

A series of posts are very impressive and the popularity remains high.
In the world of immortal cultivation, the speed of news spreading is sometimes fast and sometimes slow. The fastest ones are gossip and hearsay. There is no shortage of people who like to have fun. The second fastest ones are major events that have the potential to change the world situation.
For example, the second generation Demon Emperor Tai'an ascended the throne and ruled the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, and a war between humans and demons was about to break out.
In the players' view, the second-generation Demon Emperor Tai'an is the final BOSS set by the official, and is also the enemy they will defeat in the future.
It is not surprising to have such an idea. Players can only choose four professions, Taoist, magic, demon and Buddhist. Each one is inseparable from the human race. No matter how nice the demon race sounds, it can only be a hostile camp.
Anticipating the day when humans and demons will fight each other, players are excited. On the one hand, they wish the war would break out as soon as possible, but on the other hand, they are too weak to be able to be cannon fodder if they are involved in a high-end battlefield.
Nothing more to say, just kill the monsters.
Just two days ago, an explosive piece of news swept the official forum. A Buddhist player uploaded a message, first pointing out that the temple was haunted. Suddenly, the Buddha statue in the main hall changed its appearance.
Soon after, a Buddhist player extracted information from his own abbot. Times have changed. The Buddha Jie Yin and the Buddha Mother Zhunti established the Western Religion in the far west, and the monks found their organization.
If you want to make a pilgrimage, you must go to the West to see the paradise that only exists in legends.
Buddha Jieying and Buddha Mother Cundi, as well as Western religion, it sounds like the authorities are stirring up trouble. With the mentality of players who like to watch the fun and not mind the trouble, posts about Western religion are emerging in endlessly.
In addition, a large number of players created new secondary accounts and gave themselves Buddhist aliases. Game IDs such as Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Big Buddha Stick, and Reading the Bible in Front of the Buddha popped up like mushrooms after a rain.
As expected, these names that were disrespectful to Buddha were not accepted as disciples by the nearby Buddhist temples.
So what if he is a reincarnated immortal? You are late. Every family has a few reincarnated immortals.
After a great wave of elimination, only a few thousand players with decent names managed to get the Buddhist vest, and they were thinking of setting out with the team and following the elders of the mountain gate to the paradise.
"If I can meet Jie Yin and Zhunti and be accepted as their disciples, I will eventually become a Buddha."
"Forget it. Buddha saves those who are destined to be saved. You are only at a certain level. Are you a destined person?"
"I heard Zhunti has a bad reputation. I wonder what kind of character the official has created for him. I wonder if he still has the famous saying 'Daoyou, please turn around'."
"I don't know how to complain for a moment."
"Stupid guy, his catchphrase is 'Daoyou and my Western religion are predestined,' this sentence is in line with the law of cause and effect, it is more powerful than the supernatural power of fate, hearing it will make you bald."
"No way, I didn't study much, so Taoist Cihang's hair didn't fall out."
"He is a spokesperson, he is different."
"I think the possibility of deification is very high. Think about it, the emperor of the human race Daxia is of the Ji clan, the Wan Yao Kingdom can be compared to the Shang Dynasty, and the current demon king is King Zhou."
"Hahaha, great to be deified. My ID 'Kakarot' can finally come in handy."
"Damn it, King Zhou has a nine-tailed fox. I'm so envious!"
“I’m so envious!”
“I’m so envious!”
"… "
At this moment, the floor was occupied by a tape recorder, and it was crooked beyond recognition.
"Let me tell you a ghost story. The green plant in my house, the spider plant, was about to die, but recently it started to grow backwards and is growing wildly as if it had been fertilized."
"Is there a possibility that you nourished it?"
"Brother, are you interested in working at our fertilizer factory?"
"It's the same at my house. Recently, the dog has started to like eating grass. He liked it before, but not as much as he does now."
"What's the big deal? My myopia has improved. The mosaic that was once easily decipherable has now become a heavy cavalry."
"Is it possible that you haven't played enough games?"
"It's because I've played the game a lot. I'm not exaggerating. I get addicted to the game and feel refreshed. I'm as light as a swallow now. I can climb to the eighth floor in one breath and only need to stop to rest three times in between."
"Speaking of this, I heard a little rumor yesterday. My relative, who works in a relevant department, went to the game company's headquarters to check the account books and found that the server of [Jiuzhou World] we play is not in China."
"How fresh, it's not even in China!"
"The problem is, the game development team doesn't even know where it is. This is too perfunctory."
"Oh my god, I won't say anymore, my cabinet moved!"
…
Lu Bei was happily browsing the forum, and he felt extremely relieved when he saw the experiences of people who took the initiative to come to the Second Leader and wait for the harvest.
He was not referring to the players, but the Buddhist sects. If they were gathered together, there would be no more than thirty or fifty bald monks in the Mahayana period. As the second leader, it was reasonable and logical for him to go to his territory in the Pure Land and give some guidance to the newcomers.
I wonder if there is any nunnery similar to Cihang Jingzhai. If there is, he, the second leader, is also an expert in consecrating nuns.
People's sorrows and joys are not the same.
While Lu Bei was happy, the Zhu family was in a gloomy mood. The bald donkey from Dashan Temple wanted to move away, and no one could stop him.
The national strength is declining every day. If it continues to decline, we will be inferior to Qi Yan.
Lu Bei came to the secret realm of Cangqian Mountain, humming a little tune on his way to Jingshang Palace. Halfway through, he took a quick glance and saw a familiar butt, no, it was a familiar back.
"Why are you out wandering around again? Didn't you promise to practice diligently and get struck by lightning soon?"
Lu Bei stopped Zhu Xiu Shi and hated him for not fighting for it. He had enough resources but this guy just refused to practice properly. Isn't that infuriating
"No intention to practice."
Zhu Xiu Shi sighed and talked about the bad luck of the country recently. First, the second generation demon king was attracted by her beauty, and then Dashan Temple was determined to leave. Bad things happened one after another.
If we have to say there is any good news, it is probably that Xiong Chu is in trouble together, and Xuantian Temple is also going to move.
"What do you mean the second generation demon king fell in love with your beauty? You must be dreaming!"
Lu Bei made a few insulting remarks and asked Zhu Xiushi why she went to Jingshang Palace. The latter was also straightforward and said that there had been too many troubles recently, so the clan asked her to go to Yunzhong Pavilion to greet the old Pavilion Master and ask for a good fortune.
To put it bluntly, spend money to buy a lucky charm from Yunzhong Pavilion. It doesn’t matter whether it’s real or not, the only thing you want is happiness.
"What about my Tianjian Sect? You can just say hello to this Sect Master. What does the Zhu family mean? Dashan Temple will move, but my Tianjian Sect cannot move?" Lu Bei was furious.
"I'll come find you tonight, is that okay?"
Zhu Xiushi was too lazy to talk nonsense with Lu Bei. He was feeling annoyed and dismissed him with just one sentence.
"Okay, eating a few bites of bran occasionally may improve your stomach. You know, this sect master eats too many exquisite snacks." Lu Bei touched his chin with a serious look on his face.
Zhu Xiushi rolled his eyes, and the two of them argued for a few words and pushed open the door to Jingshang Palace.
What caught my eye was a tutor, two palace masters, and three female lecturers teaching a beautiful girl.
Zhu Xiushi: (=_=)
Why didn't he die of starvation
