Chapter 1080: Chapter 1080: Specializing in Killing Demon Man
The Demon Slayer Department’s White Saint Envoy consisted of twelve individuals. Although Chiyomiko had collected quite a bit of intelligence, the identities of these twelve remained largely unknown to her.
Even within the Nine Heavens Tower, obtaining complete information about these twelve individuals came at an astronomical price.
At the very least, the Liuli Country didn’t have the financial capability, let alone the interest in collecting intelligence on this matter. Thus, at this moment, Chiyomiko could only attempt to probe Su Chengyu in this manner.
As for Su Chengyu, his current attitude of neither denying nor admitting made it difficult for her to pin down, which only left her with the option to turn and make an inviting gesture as she said,
"Then please, follow me to the Liuli Grand Hall."
The fifth level of the Liuli Golden Palace housed the Liuli Grand Hall, which was specially designated by the imperial rulers of the Liuli Country for receiving foreign guests.
Supposedly, although the Hua family held a special status, they currently lacked a Demon Emperor. So, whether they were even qualified to visit the Liuli Grand Hall or have an audience with the emperor was debatable.
However, the appearance of Su Chengyu forced the Liuli Royal Family to slightly alter their treatment of the Hua family, offering them the highest standards of reception.
Understandably, their true intention wasn’t about the Hua family at all, but rather focused on Su Chengyu.
Su Chengyu noticed this but chose not to point it out.
On the way, Chiyomiko initially struck up casual conversation with Hua Qian. Hua Qian, who had received guidance from Su Chengyu the day before, was quite cooperative, generously showing goodwill towards Chiyomiko on behalf of the Hua family, much to Chiyomiko’s satisfaction.
Being able to serve as the intermediary between the Hua family and the Royal Family was clearly a favorable deal for Chiyomiko.
After all, although she herself did not need the Huawei Tear Beads, other witches within the Shrine had significant demand for such a naturally occurring substance that was almost equivalent to the Heavenly Pill.
Once the preliminaries between the two parties were approximately settled, Chiyomiko voluntarily took a step back and moved closer to Su Chengyu.
"Mr. Su, your visit to Liuli Country must involve more than just the Hua family, doesn’t it?"
"Passing through."
Having been fobbed off countless times by Ye Qingci using this excuse, he was all too aware of how effective it was.
The other party, even if disbelieving, could do nothing about it.
Chiyomiko reacted quickly, continuing to ask, "Then, Mr. Su, is your departure from the country for official business or personal matters?"
"Personal matters."
Su Chengyu saw no need to hide and directly responded.
"Oh? Is it for breaking through to the Nascent Soul?"
Su Chengyu still did not reply but instead counter-asked, "Does Lady Chiyomiko have any advice to offer?"
Chiyomiko immediately shook her head, "Mr. Su is a Cultivator, and I am merely from the Witch lineage. Although my realm may be slightly higher than yours, how could I possibly have advice for you?"
"There is something, such as dealing with the Demon Clan. Is it not true that the Witch lineage is especially adept at this matter?"
Su Chengyu squinted his eyes and smiled, causing Chiyomiko’s complexion to change suddenly, finding herself at a loss for an immediate response.
The Witch lineage of Liuli Country, tracing its origins back to Dongying, was distinctly separate from the Ninja system. Witches, since their inception, had taken on the responsibility of slaying demons and exorcising devils, and their various methods were inseparably linked to the Demon Clan.
Therefore, after sensing the presence of Demon Qi within the Liuli Golden Palace, Su Chengyu was particularly concerned.
"Mr. Su, you flatter us. When it comes to slaying demons, how could we ever compare to the Demon Slayer Department?"
Chiyomiko’s words were obviously embarrassed, and Su Chengyu, as if oblivious, continued in a soft tone,
"Lack of power is not to be feared, what’s troubling is when some have the strength but lack the will."
Chiyomiko was filled with mixed emotions, completely unable to grasp the meaning behind Su Chengyu’s words.
In terms of power, Chiyomiko naturally did not regard Su Chengyu as someone noteworthy.
In her view, even though Su Chengyu was from the Demon Slayer Department and possessed the strength to kill a Nascent Soul with his Golden Core Realm, he definitely wouldn’t be a match for her.
But behind Su Chengyu was the Demon Slayer Department!
Chiyomiko understood very well that the Liuli Country presently had no power to deal with the Demon Slayer Department.
Should the Demon Slayer Department learn of the Demon Clan’s control over Liuli Country, it would be a disaster for the entire nation.
What did his words imply?
Did he already know everything and was testing her, or was he unaware at the moment, just trying to pry some clues from her?
That shouldn’t be the case, the ability of that personage to conceal his aura was extremely strong; even with her own powers, she could not detect the slightest hint of Demon Qi hidden within the Golden Palace.
Even if this fellow truly came from the Demon Slayer Department, how could he possibly sense anything?
"Stop thinking, the more you think, the more mistakes you’ll make,"
Su Chengyu’s voice rang out once again, causing Chiyomiko to freeze on the spot. Before she could react, Su Chengyu continued to speak.
"Rather than pondering over these matters, consider what role you truly wish to play in the history of Liuli Country."
Having said this calmly, Su Chengyu’s feet had already stepped into the Liuli Grand Hall.
Inside the Sea of Consciousness, the Dragon Slayer Sword immediately began to vibrate violently, its sword cries warning that Su Chengyu had completely entered the control radius of the Demon Monarch.
While contemplating Su Chengyu’s words, Chiyomiko quickly made her way to the back of the grand hall, forgetting even to announce her arrival.
As soon as she entered, she saw the Empress, half of whose face was covered with scales. Chiyomiko instantly froze in place.
The Empress frowned and immediately commanded, "Chiyomiko! Why did you not announce your presence upon seeing Us?"
Chiyomiko knelt down at once, exclaiming in horror, "Your Majesty?! When did you become like this!"
Born into the Witch lineage, Chiyomiko naturally knew what a Demon Man was!
And at this moment, the sole surviving descendant of the Liuli Country Royal Family was a genuine Demon Man!
She knew that that personage had already reached an understanding for cooperation with the Royal Family, and she was prepared for the Witch lineage to step back, allowing the Demon Clan to become the largest protectorate guard of Liuli Country.
Co-prosperity between Human-Demons had not been without precedent in the history of Dongying.
But Chiyomiko never imagined that the Empress would turn into a Demon Man!
Falling into becoming a Demon Man signified the renunciation of the qualifications for cultivating the Dao. Moreover, once this was known to Xia Country,
Liuli Country would inevitably become an enemy of Xia Country, and at that time, the entire Liuli Country would be plunged into crisis.
Suddenly thinking of something, Chiyomiko looked up, speaking excitedly, "Your Majesty, your invitation today for Mr. Su personally to come to the Golden Palace... are you thinking of..."
Seeing that her identity had been revealed by the other party, the Demon Man Empress no longer concealed herself and openly said, "Otherwise? Since he is from the Demon Slayer Department and has come to my Liuli Country, there is no need for him to leave. Perhaps he has discovered nothing, but it’s better to err on the side of caution and not let him go."
A fierce light flashed in the Demon Man Empress’s eyes, while Chiyomiko’s face looked extremely unsightly as she said, "Please reconsider, Your Majesty! Cooperation with the Demon Clan is one thing, but becoming a Demon Man is definitely not the way to prosper the nation!"
"Then, what is the way to prosper the nation?"
The Demon Man Empress asked with a cold laugh, her gaze turning toward the doorway, "This Saint Envoy from the Demon Slayer Department who has come, why don’t you enlighten Us."
"I have never been a good teacher; I do not excel at teaching, and saving others is just a makeshift effort. What I am best at is killing people, mm, especially killing Demon Men."
Sensing that his energy was locked onto himself, Su Chengyu no longer hid his figure and emerged openly.
He stood alone with his sword, exuding a murderous intent.
