Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 547 - 13: The Great Demon King’s Negotiation Skills_2
The current honesty level is only twenty-five. Utterances are mixed with truth and falsehood. Tang Xian, looking at Li Wanye, guessed this wretched old man was probably truly scared by him.
But being a lord who had experienced major events, he began to analyze his own behavior, wanting to overthrow Tang Xian's words.
He truly hoped Tang Xian was as human as he claimed because that, in turn, would mean Tang Xian had weaknesses.
An old fox is still an old fox.

Tang Xian curled his lip and said,
"You know, it's quite interesting to create a public image to deceive others.
That's why I chose to wear a mask.
This face of Tang Xian is the child demon of Eden.
With the mask on, I am the righteous Masked Chopper Hero.
People will remember the various horrors of the child demon of Eden.
They will also sing praises of the Masked Chopper Hero for saving humanity, friends, and fighting against evil forces numerous times.
You see, I've fooled you, haven't I? Remember how the Stele described me? The child demon of Eden is naturally cruel. If you listen to what the Order says, then you shouldn't be questioning.
As for benefits, saving people always brings benefits. If their value dead is greater than their value alive, trust me, I'll definitely kill them."
Tang Xian's expression was somewhat ferocious as he said:
"I just need a spokesperson who can speak up for me, an Angel Envoy.
Just like the Order puts collars on you dogs, if you're unwilling to recognize a new master, then I'll butcher you and choose Song Gengzhao. If he's also unwilling, then I'll switch to someone else."
Li Wanye stiffened.
Tang Xian said coldly:
"I've never considered any of you ants as my friends, be it Li Xiaonian or Li Zheng or perhaps Li Xiaoyu? They are all nothing more than chess pieces.
If they are useful, you will get what you deserve, occupying the most critical positions on the chessboard. If they aren't useful, there's a whole bunch of new pieces waiting to take the stage.
What does it matter if the Li family is wiped out?"
These comments, utterly devoid of emotion and seemingly filled with arrogance from the soul, started to shake Li Wanye.
"I've given your daughter enough power, but if she doesn't obey, I can replace her at any time.
Li Wanye, I'm giving you one last chance. Why not listen to my plan, and then decide whether to continue as the leader of the Human World and the hero who saves humanity—or join the Li family in their downfall."
The devil.
Even Li Wanye, who had seen many ruthless and cruel people, couldn't help but feel fear when he saw Tang Xian's eyes, devoid of any human emotion.
In just a few words, Tang Xian had dismantled Li Wanye's psychological defenses.
His index finger trembling slightly, he said,
"Speak."
"Very good. You see, this is what doing business is all about, isn't it?"
Tang Xian revealed a friendly smile.
He knew his routine of pretending to be a demon lord had worked.
It was these utterly villainous words that held more sway in conversations with people like Li Wanye.
Tang Xian gave himself a nine out of ten for his acting skill, deducting one point to keep from becoming proud:
"I need you to immediately stop all manufacturing of the Judgment Knights and expose their secrets."
Li Wanye did not speak. His eyes moved slightly.
Tang Xian sneered:
"You'd better not harbor any naive thoughts that whatever I destroy represents something I fear.
The Judgment Knights pose no threat to me. The reason I destroy them is simply because a king doesn't wish for his kingdom's population to be too scarce.
Listen carefully to what I'm about to say next. You can treat these words as the temptations of a devil. But a smart person should know that gods and devils differ only in their perspectives."
"I'm listening."
"The Pyramid is nothing but the Order's prison for enslaving humans.
They use humans to transport energy from the mines and at the same time, learn and analyze human behavioral patterns to improve themselves, hoping to evolve mechanized life forms.
Gifted and non-gifted are just the Order's tools to divide humanity.
They are also means to shackle humanity. I'm not afraid to tell you that outside the Pyramid, there is no dangerous radiation; the environment is even more suitable for humans than the mines.
Even within the mines, the seven-day limit on death is another of the Order's methods to constrain humanity."
Even for Li Wanye, hearing such remarks, regardless of their truth, would be shocking because of how subversive they were.
Tang Xian knew to persuade Li Wanye, he had to talk about many details. He simply laid out the framework.
"Rings, the hierarchical system, or talents, these are all tricks to keep humans enthralled by miracles.
I have information about the Order leading droves of Judgment Knights to destroy the Human World.
If you need this information, I can share it with you.
Li Wanye, you should understand that I have no need to lie to you. Since we're doing business, I'll also make clear my sincerity.
The Li family's future remains at the pinnacle, still the supreme Li family, manufacturing Judgment Knights, you've killed countless.
Because history will call it 'the necessary cost and sacrifices for humanity to change its fate'.
The notion that war necessitates death has led you to unabashedly produce a large number of Judgment Knights.
But what if I were to tell you that from beginning to end, you never had control over the Judgment Knights?
Your ring contains the power to control the Judgment Knights.
But how do you know your ring isn't a defective product? Perhaps the 'The One Ring' is truly in the hands of the Order. That's not an unlikely possibility, is it?"
