Chapter 613: Negotiation (2)
Du Lang and the others would not be surprised if Shen Yanxiao told them that she was a demon, too!
The two demons listened to what Shen Yanxiao had to say in earnest. Their expressions on their faces s.h.i.+fted from respect and submission to doubt. The next moment, they began to stare at Shen Yanxiao in astonishment.
“Are… are you serious?” When a particular demon heard that Shen Yanxiao had the dark elements that could make them “full,” he began to gulp, and his heart pounded.
Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows and pointed to the best example she had with her, Freud, and said, “Why else do you think this guy would follow me around?”
Freud smiled. He felt no shame for his actions as a food-lover.
The two demons were not entirely convinced yet. Ever since they went to the human realm, they could hardly get any dark elements. Eating humans could keep their stomach full, but it did not bring them any tangible progress. That was why the number of advanced demons at the Brilliance Continent had barely changed. Their demise would mean further decrease of the demons’ forces at the Brilliance Continent. It had bothered the demons that their lower-level counterparts could not evolve, and they had not had any new advanced demons.
In no small part, they were willing to reside at the Forsaken Land because they simply could not afford to have any more deaths. If all advanced demons were to die, their race would be wiped out from the Brilliance Continent.
Therefore, they would rather endure hunger than to step out of the Forsaken Land.
Strong forces could make the demons surrender, but they would never erase demons’ cruel nature.
However, the bait that Shen Yanxiao offered enticed them.
“So, what do you say? Are you willing to go with me?” Shen Yanxiao waited for their reply after she cast her bait. Instead of killing the demons in the Sun Never Sets, she planned to breed them in pens.
The demons’ concept of hierarchy was quite strict. The low-level demons would submit to orders of any advanced demons. Therefore, Shen Yanxiao had decided to lure all the advanced demons in the Sun Never Sets into her league, and they could then command the middle and low-level demons. She would turn the Sun Never Sets into a place where humans and demons could coexist!
The two demons nodded happily. They had to become cruel so that they would not starve. Since someone would provide them with delicious food, they would have to be idiots to turn down the offer!
“Good. What are your names?” Shen Yanxiao asked with a smile.
“I am Jia Lan and he is Jia He,” the demon Jia Lan told her honestly.
“You are brothers?” Shen Yanxiao was curious.
Unlike humans, a demon could only give birth to one child in one lifetime. If the two demons were brothers, then they must be twins. Twin demons enjoyed special status amongst the race. The twins could leverage each other’s strength and inflict double damage.
“Yes.” Jia Lan nodded and went on with pride, “We have gained some fame in the Sun Never Sets.”
“Oh? You have mentioned that there are over two hundred advanced demons in the Sun Never Sets. If you rank them according to their respective strength, which ones are the top five demons?” She would be exhausted if she had to visit the over two hundred demons one by one. Destroy the leader, and the gang would collapse. She might as well negotiate with the strongest demons. After she convinced them, she would not have any problems with the other demons.
