The words of the Catfish Demon caused a flurry of thoughts among the Demons.
Primitive Dragon Demon·Mai Ertu, who was unhappy with Yuwen Nai’s monologue and questioned the reliability of his information.
Suddenly, his mood brightened, and he excitedly roared:
"Excellent! Excellent!"
"I have coveted Half-Step Deity for a long ti. If I can ascend to that realm, Yuwen Nai, your contribution will be the greatest, and I owe you a demon favor!"
"Wow, Dragon Demon Brother, that was a quick change of heart~~"
Primordial Palm Demon - Zhuang Huanng, flicking her rat tail, feigned shyness:
"It turns out that the Ancestor hadn’t forgotten us~~~"
"He even left such artifacts to prevent the demise of his descendants~~~"
"This is truly the best news I’ve heard today, not in vain I’ve been sitting here~~~"
"Hey! Are there only about three spots?!"
Primitive Ghost Demon·Yidong Temple, with his green demonic eyes, sharply said:
"Then this king must occupy one no matter what!"
"Another is definitely for Yuwen Nai, the rest of you can figure out the last one!"
"Ho, Ghost Demon Brother, you sure talk big~~~"
Zhuang Huanng, flicking her snake tongue, her smile twisted:
"Well then, let the last spot be given to , then everyone will be happy."
"Once I beco a Half-Step Deity, I will certainly take up the role of Guardian of the Realm of Desire. Anyone who dares bully the descendants of the Seven Sins, I will have them torn apart~"
"Roar! You’re asking for death!!!"
Mai Ertu, who was laughing heartily just a second ago, could no longer laugh.
His anger soared, his body’s dragon scales blazed with intense fire, and the dragon breath he spewed was inevitably accompanied by scorching dragon flas, as if he wouldn’t rest until he incinerated all the demons.
"Who dares to snatch my chance at ascension, I will slaughter their entire clan!"
"Here, aside from giving Yuwen Nai my respect, everyone else should firmly rember my words!"
"Noisy, do you really think I’m scared of you?"
The one who spoke was surprisingly Primordial Glutton Demon - Tao Tieze, who had already stopped eating and listened silently to the conversations of the demons.
When the Catfish Demon ntioned the Seven Artifacts left by the Seven Sins Demon God, and the Ceremony of the Seven Sins, her eyes shone with a covetous gleam.
"Breath... Breath..."
"Breath... Breath..."
The only one who seed oblivious was Primordial Sleep Demon·Kukuba.
He had been asleep from start to finish, his snoring like thunder, unceasing.
From just the projected image, Ye Hanjun couldn’t tell if he was feigning sleep or genuinely in deep slumber.
"Enough now, Your Majesties, you are all reputable demon beings, why get heated over sothing still undecided?"
"We haven’t even retrieved the artifacts yet, discussing the Blessing Ceremony of the Seven Sins is premature."
The Catfish Demon, like a kind diator, soothed again:
"Besides, even if the ceremony goes smoothly, who eventually ascends will depend on their fortune, right?"
"The so-called ’at least three Half-Step Deities’ is rely our emperor’s speculation. He believes that individually so of you are indeed only a step away. With the blessing of the Ancestor, there would naturally be a chance to break through."
"But this is not absolute, it might be more, or it might be less."
"Including Aegifla, the youngest of the Seven Kings among the original Demon Kings, doesn’t she deserve benefits too? Impossible. It’s only a matter of more or less, still worth looking forward to."
"Okay, let’s discuss this matter later!"
Tao Tieze, sharpening her sharp teeth, abruptly asked:
"Yuwen Nai, since the artifacts are in the hands of the Seven Virtues, all we need to do is to storm their hiding place, right?"
"That’s true."
Seeing the Demon Emperor had no intention to respond, the Catfish Demon took over, smiling:
"But we are exposed, while the Human Race is hidden."
"They have survived from the Ancient Era to today. The lands that seem desolate and remote to us have also been thoroughly exploited by them."
"If we rush into their territory like headless flies, trying to retrieve the stolen artifacts, it’s not going to be easy."
"However, our emperor does have so good news."
With a gentle smile, the Catfish Demon approached a servant demon, always kneeling on the ground, and then picked up a tal tray from its bent back.
The mont the tal tray was lifted, the servant demon imdiately showed a hint of relief.
Obviously, the weight of the tray was enormous, beyond what ordinary demons could handle.
"Your Majesties, behold this item."
The Catfish Demon, ignoring others, grabbed sothing round and followed the dripping crimson blood, causing Ye Hanjun to frown slightly.
It was actually a human head, from an adult man, with delicate features and an extraordinary appearance.
Yet his death was extrely grueso; his eyes, wide open in death, still retained the fear of his final monts.
"This is ’Temperance’ among the Seven Virtues, who had the protection of ’The Source’, yet still perished by our emperor’s hands."
"Through him, our emperor has learned many secrets."
"For instance, this scroll he carried with him might be a map of the territories beyond our lands, otherwise, he wouldn’t have tried to destroy it desperately before his death."
"Fortunately, our emperor seized it in ti, salvaging half before it was completely destroyed."
The Catfish Demon spread out the scroll, generously displaying its contents.
Ye Hanjun focused his gaze, and indeed, there were highly detailed contours of mountains and rivers, as well as neatly written Human Race script, marking the general distribution of the Seven Nations.
And in the unclaid areas where the Seven Nations bordered each other, as well as the desolate lands beyond the Seven Nations, additional colored symbols divided different coordinates.
