"Your Highness, do you really plan to leave with only so few people?”
It was late at night. Su Mengyao asked with an uneasy expression as she packed up some things in His Highness's bedroom.
Looking closely, the originally clean and tidy bedroom suddenly had many things. However, most of these things were not familiar to Su Mengyao, including some ordinary human clothes and hats.
"That's right. The more people there are, the more chaotic it will be. We're not going to fight this time. Naturally, we only need a few elites.”Tian Chi said contentedly as he ate the Snow Deer meat he caught from the icy plains.
Although it was rumored in the human world that the demon race only ate human flesh, Tian Chi had only discovered until now that the demon race was purely omnivorous creatures. Other than not eating grains and plants, they were not picky as long as it was meat.
In this case, perhaps he could consider developing animal breeding in the future. If he could provide a stable supply of animal meat in large quantities, perhaps the conflict with the human side would not be so sharp.
After eating a few meals of venison, this thought naturally appeared in Tian Chi's mind.
The biggest conflict between humans and demons actually occurred on the demon side. Because this group only ate meat and did not engage in production and breeding, they could only get some wild animals to maintain their lives.
The easiest to find and most abundant wild animals were naturally humans. This was also the biggest reason for the thousand-year-old conflict between the two sides.
Tian Chi was a human in his previous life. Although he had become the boss of the demon race in this life, his way of thinking was still from a human's point of view. Of course, he would not do anything like eating human flesh.
Strangely enough, most high-level demon species did not like human flesh. Perhaps they had discovered that their form was becoming more and more similar to humans during their evolution, so they were naturally unwilling to eat such unpalatable meat and turned to various beasts as their staple food.
"By the way, Xia Wu, are you alright?”After finishing a large plate of delicious fried venison, Tian Chi burped in satisfaction and turned to the noblewoman who was looking around excitedly in the bedroom.
"Hehe, of course. If Your Highness has any instructions, please speak frankly. This concubine can agree to any request.”
After hearing His Highness 'question, Xia Wu respectfully lifted the corner of her skirt and gave a ladylike bow. Then, she threw a flirtatious glance at Tian Chi.
Ever since he learned that he had been chosen to carry out the mission with His Highness, Xia Wu's expression had always been quite happy. It was even more so after he was allowed to enter Tian Chi's palace for the first time. His gaze could only be described as passionate as fire.
As a high-level demon of the Blood Devouring Race, Xia Wu naturally exuded the charm of a mature woman.
As she smiled, her exquisite facial features seemed to be able to speak, causing people to unknowingly be mesmerized. Her fair and smooth skin seemed to have a strange magic power, making people want to explore it.
If Su Mengyao's beauty could be described as a snow lotus on an ice mountain, then Xia Wu's beauty could be described as a rose that was as passionate as fire. One was cold and the other was hot, each bringing with it a completely different style.
After receiving Xia Wu's flirtatious gaze, Tian Chi grinned and turned around to avoid looking at her extremely seductive figure.
Back when he was still a Demon Slayer, Tian Chi, who was still young and inexperienced, had fought with this Xia Demon Master many times. He had even been teased by her very badly, so he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw her now.
But even though he knew this, Tian Chi still chose Xia Wu as the candidate for this mission because her ability was the most suitable for this mission among the ten Demon Masters.
When Xia Wu injected his Demon Seed's blood into an ordinary human's body, the human who was infected with the Demon Seed's blood would be controlled by the Xia Demon Lord, turning into a loyal puppet of flesh and blood that still retained its own consciousness.
To be honest, there were many ways to control the minds of others in this world. However, the greatest feature of Xia Wu's ability was that it could still retain the complete mind and personal memories of the flesh puppet. This made it very difficult for ordinary people to distinguish it.
Tian Chi, the former Demon Slayer, had a deep understanding of this. In her previous life, when she fought against Xia Wu, she even had the glorious history of turning two kings into slaves and commanding hundreds of thousands of troops to hunt down Tian Chi.
At that time, in order to distinguish who was the controlled flesh puppet, Tian Chi and his gang had put in a lot of effort, but they were still badly battered.
Therefore, Tian Chi himself, Xia Wu, and Su Mengyao were the ones who were sent to search for the Demon Slayer.
The reason why he brought Su Mengyao out wasn't because her ability would be of much help to the mission. It was purely because Tian Chi didn't want to be alone with Xia Wu. Moreover, the other candidates weren't particularly suitable.
Zhou Fengjiao was supposed to oversee the affairs of Frost City, while Zhu Erwang, Wu Ji, Wu Wu, Wu Peng, and Di Ye were all standard battle maniacs. They were also unreasonable. It was fine for them to fight, but it was better for them not to do such delicate work.
In this way, only Su Mengyao, Xia Wu, Bai Yueguang, and Xin You were suitable to carry out the mission. The abilities of the latter two were more suitable for carrying out some special missions. In addition, their personalities were also a little strange, so Tian Chi actually did not have much to choose.
"Right, Your Highness, which location should we search first tomorrow?”After she finished packing her luggage, Su Mengyao poured two cups of tea from the side and quietly sat opposite Tian Chi.
Moreover, when Su Mengyao sat down, she glared at Xia Wu as if she was very dissatisfied with this female creature who had " invaded her territory."
Originally, only Su Mengyao and her younger sister Su Qingyao could enter Prince Qin Wufeng's bedroom. Now, Xia Wu had stuck his head out and followed him in, making this ice beauty somewhat unhappy.
Heehee, Xia Wu could clearly sense the hostility in Su Mengyao's eyes. However, she only gave Su Mengyao a charming smile and did not say anything else.
"The first location of this operation is a small village near Yuzhou. There is a Demon Slayer there.”
Tian Chi thought for a moment and casually gave such an answer. However, when he said this, his expression was somewhat erratic, as if he was recalling some very distant things.
Judging from the distance on the map, the closest place to Frost City was undoubtedly Jiaozhou, which was the closest to the north among the human forces. Yuzhou, on the other hand, was located in the south, which was not a very suitable starting point.
But why did Tian Chi choose to do so? Because to him, the small mountain village called Qianmo, not far from Yuzhou, was a place of special significance.
In his previous life, when Tian Chi transmigrated to this world as a Demon Slayer, he appeared in Qianmo Village. At that time, Tian Chi was originally the son of a farmer couple. He had a not-so-beautiful childhood sweetheart and a few followers. He was like the king of the children in the village.
Life in Qianmo Village was very peaceful, and the villagers living there were very satisfied with the days without any waves.
They worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. They hunted beasts by the mountains and caught fish by the sea. People were simple and well-off. This kind of life was repeated. One day was a lifetime.
Compared to the busy people of the other world, life in Qianmo Village was perhaps a dream for many people. When Tian Chi first arrived there, he was very satisfied with it and even had the idea of dying here.
However, this peaceful night was completely destroyed.
The overwhelming demon soldiers rushed into the village like a grim reaper, overturning all the houses, burning all the rice fields, and killing all the creatures that could breathe.
One hundred and thirty-nine people, this number would probably never be forgotten in Tian Chi's entire life. Among these one hundred and thirty-nine people who died in this calamity, there were his parents, his childhood sweethearts, his little friends, his neighbors, and so on.
Of course, Tian Chi survived, but he himself did not know how he survived. He only knew that when he woke up the next day in a sea of blood and burnt smell, the entire world was already left with ashes.
Every time he thought of this, Tian Chi found it difficult to calm the anger in his heart. This kind of anger was like a fire that burned more and more fiercely. In the end, the entire demon race was burned to ashes. It could be considered as avenging the blood feud of the people of Qianmo Village.
However, Tian Chi did not understand a problem at that time. Qianmo Village was located in the southern part of the human countries, far away from the North Pole Continent. Moreover, there were relatively powerful city-states stationed on all sides. It was impossible for such a large number of mo soldiers to appear.
In fact, Qianmo Village had not been attacked by the Demon soldiers for decades. Although the north was still in the midst of war every day, it had a paradise atmosphere. Therefore, even the guards and the Blood Cultivator Association would not send people to guard it.
However, after becoming a Demon King, things that he didn't understand before gradually made sense.
That wave of mo soldiers back then was basically aimed at Tian Chi. If it wasn't for Tian Chi, everyone in Qianmo Village would probably still be living an ordinary life ten years later.
After he understood everything, Tian Chi could not help but blame himself. However, since he had already been reborn as Demon King Qin Wufeng, he would not allow all of this to happen again.
As long as he did not send people to hunt down the Demon Slayer, the villagers of Qianmo Village would not die.
As long as he stopped the Demon Slayer through gentle means, there would not be a more intense conflict.
As long as he had a way to solve the problem of the Demon soldiers and humans getting along, he could bring peace to this world.
This was the great dream of the current Demon King, Demon King Tian Chi. As a Demon King, he wanted to create a peaceful world.
And Qianmo Village was the starting point of this ideal, and also a farewell to Tian Chi's previous life.
