For Yao Buqi to address Zhou Shu this way outside the door, it meant that he was still very cautious.
Zhou Shu stared at Yao Buqi and asked seriously, “Yao Buqi, let me ask you. Can that mountain in your territory lead to the Ten Nations Continent?”
His gaze was fixed on Yao Buqi’s face, wanting to make sure that he told the truth.
“King Zhou, you are indeed impressive!” Yao Buqi gave him a thumbs up. After entering the cave, Yao Buqi was much more at ease. “You haven’t even been to the scene, yet you can tell. You’re much stronger than Lord Yao Aotian.”
Yin Chengshan snorted coldly. If you want to praise him, just praise him. Why are you belittling me?
Am I qualified to compare with His Highness?
“As expected?” Zhou Shu’s eyes lit up.
“King Zhou, you are wise,” Yao Buqi said. “My mountain is indeed connected to the Ten Nations Continent, but I’m afraid it’s different from what you think. Demonic beasts and humans can’t pass through.”
Without waiting for Zhou Shu to ask, Yao Buqi continued, “The place connected to the Ten Nations Continent is only a narrow passage. At most, you can send some things over, but humans and demonic beasts can’t pass through.
Yao Buqi said regretfully, “After I occupied this place, I made many attempts. This passage can only allow something the size of two fists at most to pass through.”
“Is that so?” Zhou Shu was deep in thought.
According to his guess, this shouldn’t be the case.
Could it be that after so many years, something had changed there?
“That mountain…” Zhou Shu said.
“King Zhou, actually, I gave it a name in private. It’s called the Two Region Mountain.”
Yao Buqi whispered, “To tell you the truth, King Zhou, people often send some heaven and earth treasures from the other side of the passageway on the Two Region Mountain.
“In exchange, I’ll stuff some things back…”
Zhou Shu’s face darkened. What is this?
Cross-border trade?
Yao Buqi is quite good at playing around!
“Your Highness, now that you mention it, I seem to remember a legend in the Ten Nations,” Yin Chengshan said after some thought. “Legend has it that someone once traded with a demon god and obtained a powerful cultivation technique. From then on, he became incomparably powerful…”
Zhou Shu looked at Yao Buqi. It seems that the demon god that the extremists of the Ten Nations believed in was Yao Buqi?
Yao Buqi was also a little surprised. He said weakly, “I did give out some cultivation techniques…”
In all honesty, he really didn’t want to be a demon god.
He just thought it was fun…
“I wonder what is on the other side of the passage. If I can get in touch with the Ten Nations through it, it might not be a bad idea,” Zhou Shu said.
“I don’t know either,” Yao Buqi said. He had never been to the Ten Nations Continent, so how would he know this?
Yin Chengshan said, “Your Highness, I’m afraid that place isn’t in the hands of the Ten Nations’ authorities.”
Those extremists who believed in the demon god were like street rats in the Ten Nations. They were like terrorists in the Ten Nations, wreaking havoc everywhere. The Ten Nations’ authorities dealt with them severely.
It was obvious that the mountain Yao Buqi had named the Two Region Mountain was their secret headquarters.
“In that case, it will be somewhat troublesome.” Zhou Shu rubbed his chin. If he could return to the Ten Nations, it wouldn’t be difficult to eliminate these extremists.
But with the barrier between the two worlds, he was helpless.
Zhou Shu pondered for a moment before saying, “Yao Buqi, I agree to cooperate with you.”
Although it seemed that the passageway of the Two Region Mountain wouldn’t be of much use, it was also possible that Yao Buqi didn’t really control the Two Region Mountain.
Zhou Shu felt that Gao Chongming and the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain were no fools. They wouldn’t leave the Two Region Mountain here for no reason.
The Two Region Mountain definitely had its uses.
But he wondered if Ji Lutian, whom he suspected to be the successor of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, knew of the existence of the Two Region Mountain.
“That’s great.” Yao Buqi cheered in a low voice. “With King Zhou’s help, I don’t have to worry about not being able to accomplish anything.”
“Yao Buqi, since you’ve been a demon god…” Zhou Shu said.
“King Zhou, don’t mock me.” Yao Buqi smiled bitterly. “I’m not a demon god. I was just playing around. I didn’t know that the people opposite me would treat me as a demon god.”
Zhou Shu smiled without saying anything. First-rank experts were already top-notch experts in the Ten Nations. What he revealed was enough to change the fate of ordinary people.
“That’s not the point. Since you’ve been a demon god before, you should understand the principle of equal exchange. I hope you won’t ask for too much,” Zhou Shu said slowly.
“King Zhou, don’t worry. I, Yao Buqi, am not a demon without limits.” Yao Buqi smiled. “My request is very simple. As long as you help me become the Holy Son of the Demon Realm, I will be satisfied!
“At that time, King Zhou, you can bring your people and camp at the Two Region Mountain. As long as I don’t die, I guarantee that no demonic beasts will be able to find you!”
Yao Buqi was full of confidence.
“Holy Son of the Demon Realm?” Zhou Shu looked at Yao Buqi in confusion.
“The Holy Son of the Demon Realm is the key training target of the Demon Realm,” Yao Buqi said. “After becoming the Holy Son of the Demon Realm, not only can you enjoy a supreme status, but you can also be nurtured by the entire Demon Realm.
“In the words of your human race, the Holy Son of the Demon Realm is the crown prince of the Demon Realm.”
“There is no master of the Demon Realm in the Demon Realm. The analogy of crown prince is not appropriate,” Zhou Shu said casually.
“I’m not good with words. I’m sorry, King Zhou,” Yao Buqi said awkwardly.
“Let me put it this way. Even if the Holy Son of the Demon Realm doesn’t become a Demon King in the future, as long as he doesn’t die, he will definitely become the number one demon below the Demon Kings.”
Yao Buqi said, “Yao Qing, I mean the real Yao Qing, his mother was once the Holy Maiden of the Demon Realm.
“The Holy Son of the Demon Realm selection is held once every one hundred years. This year’s Holy Son selection is not far away. If I can become the Holy Son, my status in the Demon Realm will increase greatly. At that time, I will definitely be able to give you more help.”
“Once every hundred years. There are many Holy Sons and Maidens in the Demon Realm now, right? It doesn’t seem that valuable,” Zhou Shu said casually.
“Valuable?” Yao Buqi didn’t understand.
Zhou Shu had no intention of explaining. “After someone becomes the Holy Son, does he have to suppress their peers?”
“That’s right. With your ability, I don’t think you need to worry at all. However, there’s a demonic beast that you need to pay attention to. It’s Yao Wudi.”
“Yao Wudi?” Zhou Shu felt like he had heard this name before. After thinking for a while, he remembered.
Yao Wudi seemed to be Yao Qing’s imaginary enemy. During the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, Zhou Shu had taught Yao Qing the Heavenly Saber Art under the condition that he would help him mine. His goal was to defeat Yao Wudi.
This was a bit of a coincidence.
“I understand.” Zhou Shu nodded. “After I’m done here, I’ll use your identity to participate in the selection of the so-called Holy Son.
“It’s just Yao Wudi. I’ll just kill him.”
Zhou Shu didn’t care at all. With his current strength, unless a Demon King personally took action, he was sure to win.
Would a Demon King take action?
It was obviously impossible.
Yao Buqi had already said that the selection of the Holy Son was only for demonic beasts of their generation.
Yao Buqi and Yao Qing were already outstanding among this generation of demonic beasts, and they were only first-rank martial artists.
In Zhou Shu’s eyes, first-rank demonic beasts were only slightly stronger ants.
“Thank you, King Zhou!” Yao Buqi was overjoyed.
“Go back first. I’ll get someone to contact you later. We’ll talk about when my people go to Two Region Mountain.”
“Understood. I’ll be waiting.”
Yao Buqi said seriously, “King Zhou, take this. When the time comes, as long as you get someone to bring this to my territory, the demonic beasts under me will understand and not make things difficult for the people you send.”
While speaking, Yao Buqi got the void beast on his shoulder to spit out something and handed it to Zhou Shu.
