At this time, the Demon King's breath was like a lamp with oil running out, and it could go out at any time.

"Your Majesty, how are you? I still have some healing pills here." Niu Le looked anxious, and quickly took out all the pills he carried with him.

"It's useless. My foundation has been destroyed by that old thing." The Demon King shook his head gently.

"These ordinary pills are useless to me, and there is no pill in this world that can save my current injuries."

"Go and open the formation first."

"It shouldn't take a few days for that old thing to lead the human army to attack here."

"With this formation, I believe you can still hold on for a few more days."

"During this period, there will be other demon kings coming to support."

At this point, the Demon King's eyes fell on Hu Xiao again.

He should have died a long time ago.

It was just the pills Hu Xiao gave him that allowed him to survive for a while.

But he also knew that Hu Xiao probably only had one of these pills.

"You must be Hu Xiao."

Hu Xiao nodded.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Demon King, I am Hu Xiao."

The Demon King did not look at Hu Xiao again, but turned to look at Niu Le.

Niu Le immediately understood and immediately took the Demon King and Hu Xiao to a room next door.

The Demon King was sitting on the bed. At this time, his breath was even weaker and his face was extremely pale.

"Niu Le, the news of my injury will not be hidden for long. You can directly release this news and let them prepare in advance in the future."

"Call the prince and the princess together. I have something to tell them."

"Yes!" Niu Le immediately bowed.

After Niu Le left, the Demon King forced a smile and looked at Hu Xiao.

"I have learned about your affairs from Niu Le before. You are very good and talented."

"I am very pleased that my demon clan has a demon king like you."

"Thank you for the compliment, Lord Demon King." Hu Xiao hurriedly bowed.

The Demon King smiled and motioned Hu Xiao to sit down next to him.

At this time, Hu Xiao found that the Demon King was not as arrogant as he imagined, but seemed to be approachable.

"Do you know why the human race tore up the agreement between the human and demon races and started this war?"

Hu Xiao was stunned when he heard this. He had been investigating this matter for a while, but he had no clue. Why did the Demon King mention it at this time?

Seeing that Hu Xiao didn't speak, the Demon King smiled.

"Your real strength now should be at the level of a six-star demon king."

"When you reach the level of a demon king, you will probably understand."

The Demon King looked at Hu Xiao and said this very decisively, as if Hu Xiao was destined to reach the level of a demon king.

Hu Xiao didn't interrupt the Demon King and listened to him quietly.

"After getting the Demon King, every promotion to a higher level is like walking to the sky."

"And it took me hundreds of years to reach the ninth-level demon king."

"The old man who fought with me today is also a ninth-level martial emperor like me."

Hu Xiao also knew this.

And from the news he got, the old guy hasn't appeared for a long time. He must be in seclusion to challenge the Martial Emperor.

"But he reached the ninth level of Martial Emperor hundreds of years earlier than me."

"And in these hundreds of years, the human race and the demon race have actually lived in peace. There are occasional minor frictions, but they are all minor fights."

"No one took it seriously."

"And the reason why he started this war was not for the human race, but to kill me."

Hu Xiao narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

"Why?"

"Could it be that he felt that his time was coming and wanted to kill you to eliminate future troubles?"

"But the human race still has many Martial Emperors and demons, and many Demon Kings."

"Just killing you doesn't seem to affect the overall situation."

The Demon King nodded gently after hearing this.

"Yes, killing me won't affect the overall situation, but he doesn't just want to kill me, he wants my heart."

"What?" Hu Xiao's pupils shook violently after hearing this, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

"He wants your heart."

The Demon King nodded heavily: "Maybe you don't know it well. Our clan is called Void Beast."

"We are born with the ability to control the void. Ordinary demon kings who want to control the void must reach the fifth level or above."

"And our clan has the ability to control the void since birth."

"Our heart is a great tonic for humans."

"If that old thing kills me and turns my body into a pill, he will definitely be able to break through the Martial Emperor and reach the Martial Emperor after swallowing it."

"This is the fundamental reason why they launched the war between the human and demon clans this time."

Hu Xiao couldn't recover for a long time after hearing it.

As he guessed, this war was launched by some people for their own selfish interests.

But what he didn't expect was that the whole war was for one purpose, that is, to let the Qingming Patriarch break through to the Martial Emperor.

"Then he will definitely not let you go when you evacuate this time."

"Yes." The Demon King nodded again.

Hearing this, Hu Xiao suddenly felt something wrong. Yao Hua's status is supreme, why did he say this to him?

Hu Xiao stopped guessing and asked directly: "Your Majesty the Demon King, you have told me so much, there must be something wrong?"

"Why don't you just say it directly."

The Demon King immediately laughed after hearing this.

"It really saves trouble when you deal with smart people."

"I have only one purpose for keeping you here, and that is to ask you to promise me one thing."

"As long as you agree to this, I will give you a great blessing."

Hu Xiao frowned.

He could feel that what the Demon King asked him to do was definitely not a small matter, and his great fortune was certainly not small.

"Don't refuse first, first listen and see what I'm talking about about the great creation."

"As long as you are willing to agree, I will pass on what I have learned throughout my life to you."

After hearing this, Hu Xiao suddenly took a breath of cold air. The demon emperor's strength has reached that of the nine-star demon emperor.

If you pass on everything you have learned throughout your life, wouldn't your strength improve by leaps and bounds?

"Then, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, what do you want me to do?" Hu Xiao took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.

The Demon King looked at Hu Roar and smiled.

"Actually, this matter is very simple. Help me protect this demon realm."

"Ah?" Huxiao was stunned for a moment.

"Your Majesty the Demon King, you think too highly of me. With my current strength, I am no match for him."

"And there are so many Demon Emperors under your command, wouldn't it be better if you leave this matter to them?"

It's not that Hu Xiao doesn't want this great fortune, but Hu Xiao knows very well that it would be difficult for Yu Huai to fight against the opponent with his own strength, let alone an old man.

You must know that a powerful and dying old man can do things that ordinary people can't imagine.
