Zhou Shu felt that he was getting further and further along the path of becoming a great hoodwinker.

These demonic beasts were too easy to fool. He couldn’t help himself from doing it.

He had only made up a few words that he had seen on the internet in his previous life. He had yet to use the famous saying, “It is the way of heaven to take from what has in excess in order to make good what is deficient.”

And the demonic beasts already wanted to worship him as a god.

Since they were acting like this, Zhou Shu found it very unchallenging.

But he felt very satisfied that he could make these demons mine for him with just a few words.

Without the help of these Great Demons, even if Demon King Hu Li personally took action, it wouldn’t be easy to gather the forging materials for the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

Watching the Great Demons leave energetically, Zhou Shu noticed that Yao Aotian was still standing here.

“Aotian, you don’t have to follow me anymore. There’s nothing I need you to do here for the time being. Go with the other lords,” Zhou Shu said.

Ever since Yao Aotian had brought all his wealth to offer to Zhou Shu, he had been staying by Zhou Shu’s side, working at his beck and call.

This hollowed-out mountainside was Yao Aotian’s doing.

If not for Yao Aotian personally taking action, it would have been difficult for him to find a suitable place to forge the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

Although Yao Aotian was quite handy, it would be a waste to let him do odd jobs here.

A Great Demon should go out to mine.

Yao Aotian looked around mysteriously. Seeing that all the Great Demons had left, he whispered, “Yao Qing, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?” Zhou Shu glanced at him and asked curiously.

“Nephew Yao Qing, I’ve discovered where the human army that infiltrated the Demon Realm is!” Yao Aotian whispered while looking around, seemingly afraid of being heard.

“Oh?” Zhou Shu’s eyebrows shot up.

“Nephew,” Yao Aotian whispered. “Demon King Ao personally ordered us to kill this human army. Whoever can complete this mission will be rewarded by Demon King Ao.

“I know that you might not be interested in these rewards, but you’re still young. If you can gain more experience, you will hold a higher status in the Demon Realm in the future…”

Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes and looked at Yao Aotian, his expression unchanged. “Aotian, what do you mean?”

“I have a million demonic beasts under my command. I can quietly destroy this human army and give the credit to you…” Yao Aotian said excitedly.

“You’re asking me to falsely report military merits,” Zhou Shu said coldly. “If Demon King Ao found out, do you think he would let me off?

“I thought we were already friends. I didn’t expect you to want to get me into trouble!”

Zhou Shu’s expression turned incomparably cold. He flicked his sleeve and said coldly, “In that case, we’ll sever ties from now on.”

“Don’t!” Yao Aotian said anxiously. “Nephew, you’ve misunderstood! I didn’t mean that!

“I’m not asking you to report false military merits! I want to lend you my demonic beast army. You can lead the army to kill the human army. How can this be considered reporting false military merits?

“The credit will belong to you!”

“Back then, on the battlefield, the million-strong demonic beast army returned in defeat. What makes you think that I can succeed just because you lent me your troops?” Zhou Shu’s expression was still cold as he spoke. “As far as I know, Lord Yao Lian died at the hands of this human army. I haven’t broken through to the Great Demon realm yet. Aren’t you sending me to my death?

“I knew it. A first-rank like me isn’t worthy of being your friend, Lord Yao Aotian. In that case, please be kind and let me off.”

Yao Aotian was frightened by Zhou Shu’s words. He said helplessly, “Nephew, I really didn’t mean that! I sincerely want to give you a big gift.

“You allowed me to improve my cultivation and even touch the threshold of the Demon King realm. No matter how I repay you, it’s not enough. How could I possibly want to harm you?

“Nephew Yao Qing, I’ve thought through. I’ll follow the army. My cultivation level is higher than Yao Lian’s, and there are indeed experts in the human army. With my current strength, unless there’s an enemy comparable to a Demon King, he can forget about hurting you!”

Yao Aotian was very confident.

He was a senior Great Demon to begin with. After being enlightened by Zhou Shu, his cultivation base was about to break through to the Demon King realm.

He knew that among those under the Demon King realm, even Yao Wenxin might not be his match.

This was why he was confident that he could help Zhou Shu make a great contribution.

“Aotian, who else knows the whereabouts of this human army?” Zhou Shu asked in a low voice.

“No one else knows.” Yao Aotian shook his head. “It was a coincidence. When I went out a few days ago, I accidentally discovered some humans. I followed them for a few days before I confirmed their whereabouts.

“I didn’t hurt the humans to avoid alerting them, and I didn’t tell anyone.”

Yao Aotian was prepared to use this opportunity to please Zhou Shu, so he naturally couldn’t leak it to others.
