“Demon King Palace?” The two Demon Kings looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other’s eyes. “What Demon King Palace are you talking about?”
“How can your palaces be called a Demon King Palace?” Hu Li said mockingly. “Don’t you find it embarra.s.sing?!
“You said I was poor, but you are the poor demons.”
Hu Li used all his strength to mock them. “Sometimes, I really can’t be bothered to criticize you. Aren’t you embarra.s.sed to call yourselves Demon Kings? All of you live in dilapidated houses. I don’t even want to call them palaces.”
“Hu Li, you’re going overboard!” the two Demon Kings said coldly with ugly expressions.
!!
“I’m going overboard?” Hu Li laughed. “I’m still giving you face. Otherwise, I’d be even more honest.”
The two Demon Kings narrowed their eyes. One of them sneered. “Hu Li, our residences don’t deserve to be called Demon King Palaces. Then, is this place you’re living worthy of it?”
His gaze swept across the residence of Hu Li. This was where Hu Li had lived before he became a Demon King. It matched the dilapidated house he had mentioned…
“Hehe.” Hu Li chuckled. “Naturally, this place isn’t worthy.
“I’ll broaden your horizons in two days!”
Thinking of Zhou Shu’s orders, Hu Li stiffly changed the topic. “You are both Demon Kings. You didn’t come to partic.i.p.ate in my advancement ceremony empty-handed, right?
“If you’re really short on money and can’t come up with anything good, it’s fine. I’m magnanimous. I’m very happy that you’re here. I have enough wine and meat.”
The two Demon Kings’ faces darkened. Why didn’t they realize before that this d.a.m.n tiger was so eloquent?
Originally, they had come early for another purpose, not to bicker with Hu Li.
How did they end up being pulled down to Hu Li’s level by him, where he used his rich experience to make them look like fools?
“Hu Li, cut the c.r.a.p,” one of the two Demon Kings said. “We didn’t forget your congratulatory gift. We didn’t come early to bicker with you. We have serious business.”
“I don’t have any relationship with you. Why did you look for me?” Hu Li asked.
When he was still a Great Demon, the only Demon King he had come into contact with was Demon King Ao. He had never seen Demon King Tiangou and Demon King Liu’Er before.
Demon Kings were high and mighty existences in the Demon Realm. Ordinary demonic beasts were not qualified to meet them.
Take Yao Qing for example. His mother was the number one Great Demon below the Demon Kings, but he had never seen a Demon King with his own eyes.
Since this was the case for Yao Qing, it was imaginable what it was like for other demonic beasts in the Demon Realm.
The reason Hu Li had been able to come into contact with Demon King Ao in the past was that he was originally a va.s.sal of Demon King Ao. Otherwise, even if he was a Great Demon, it wouldn’t have been so easy for him to see a Demon King.
He couldn’t understand why Tiangou and Liu’Er were looking for him.
“Hu Li, you should know about Demon Queen Tushan, right?” The one who spoke was Tiangou. He looked at Hu Li seriously.
“What about Tushan? I don’t have much of a relationship with her,” Hu Li said.
Tiangou’s face darkened. Who asked you if you have a relationship with Tushan?
You were just an ordinary Great Demon in the past. What right do you have to be friends with Tushan?
We Demon Kings can’t even befriend her!
“Tu Shan is missing,” Tiangou said.
“I didn’t do it. It has nothing to do with me!” Hu Li blurted out subconsciously.
Tiangou’s and Liu’Er’s faces darkened again. Why is Hu Li so anxious?
Did we say you did it?
Even if you want to do it, do you have the ability?
Although Tushan is considered a relatively weak existence among the Demon Kings, you have just broken through. Can you defeat her?
“Hu Li!” Tiangou was getting impatient. “We’re talking business with you! If you continue to mess around, don’t blame us for being impolite!”
“How are you going to be impolite?” Hu Li said generously. “I’m not afraid of you. Continue.”
He pretended to be all ears.
Tiangou snorted. “Tushan is missing. We suspect that she was harmed by the humans—”
“Tiangou, are you kidding me?” Hu Li couldn’t help interrupting. “The human race doesn’t even have a Great Demon realm expert. How can they harm Tushan? Not to mention, the gap in the barrier between the two worlds has been blocked. Why would there be human experts in the Demon Realm?
“I think Tushan might be hiding somewhere to play. Anyway, Demon Kings are always missing. Isn’t it normal for one to disappear for over a hundred years?”
Hu Li was unconcerned.
“I said you were ignorant, but you refused to admit it.” The monkey-faced Liu’Er sneered. “Since we said it, we are naturally confident! You don’t understand the matters between Demon Kings.”
His face was full of contempt for Hu Li.
“I don’t understand. Then, why are you here?” Hu Li said. “I’ve never even seen Tushan!”
“We came to you because we want you to cooperate with us on something.”
Tiangou could already tell that they couldn’t go along with Hu Li. Otherwise, he would continue to mess around.
He simply ignored what Hu Li said and continued speaking.
“You advanced to the Demon King realm and are holding some kind of advancement ceremony. Everyone in the Demon Realm knows about it. We can use this opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole.”
