Hu Xiao was somewhat puzzled and asked in confusion: "What does His Majesty the Demon King want to see me for?"

The demon envoy shook his head slightly and answered in confusion: "I don't know either. His Majesty the Demon King just asked you to come over."

After that, he turned his eyes to Luo Shuiyan who was standing beside him.

"Your wife can also go with us."

"Lead the way!" Hu Xiao nodded.

"Yes!"

Then, under the guidance of the demon envoy, Hu Xiao and Luo Shuiyan came to the imperial study.

The imperial study was elegantly decorated.

The bookshelf made of sandalwood was filled with ancient rare books, exuding a faint book fragrance.

A huge carved window welcomed the bright light, and several pots of rare flowers were placed on the windowsill, exuding fragrance.

The floor was covered with a soft and thick velvet carpet, and footsteps could hardly be heard when walking on it.

A spacious desk was placed in the center of the room, on which were neatly placed the four treasures of the study and a pile of important documents.

Hu Xiao and Luo Shuiyan respectfully walked to the front of His Majesty the Demon King, bowed and saluted, and said in unison: "Greetings to His Majesty the Demon King."

The Demon King nodded slightly, looked at Hu Xiao, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He couldn't help but say: "It's only been a few days since we last met, and your strength has improved a lot."

Hu Xiao smiled lightly and quickly responded: "Lucky breakthrough!"

The Demon King continued with a smile: "Don't be so modest, your strength growth is good for my demon clan."

"Are you satisfied with living in this Donghuang City? Is your diet and daily life to your liking?"

"If there is anything unsatisfactory, just let me know."

Hu Xiao knew in his heart that the Demon King intended to win him over, but he didn't show it on his face. He replied respectfully: "Your Majesty's care, I am very grateful."

"In this Donghuang City Everything is fine. The place where I live is comfortable and peaceful. People in the city are also very friendly to me. "

"Your Majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs, but you still care about me so much. I am really flattered."

The Demon King smiled and nodded gently, saying: "You have made great contributions to my demon clan and you are also outstanding. I will naturally care about you more."

"Besides, the demon clan is now at a critical period and needs talents like you to contribute to the prosperity of the demon clan."

Hu Xiao quickly responded: "Your Majesty is kind, I will do my best to serve the demon clan until my death."

The Demon King nodded slightly, revealing a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "I believe in your loyalty and ability."

At this time, the imperial study fell into a brief silence, with only the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves outside the window.

The Demon King no longer beat around the bush and got straight to the point.

"I called you here today to ask where you want to build your demon court?"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand to signal Hu Xiao to come to him, pointed to the map next to him and continued: "This is a map of the area near Donghuang City."

"There are many open spaces around, you can choose any place you want to open your own demon court."

Luo Shuiyan listened to it, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, her heart was full of surprise and joy.

I didn't expect Hu Xiao to be so valued by the Demon King that he was personally asked to choose.

Hu Xiao came to the Demon King and looked down at the map.

After hesitating for a moment, he raised his hand and pointed to an area on the left side of Donghuang City on the map, and said firmly: "Let's go here."

That area is flat and open, surrounded by green mountains and shady trees.

A clear stream meanders by, with lush grass and wild flowers beside the stream.

The mountains in the distance are rolling, contrasting with the blue sky and white clouds, like a natural painting.

The Demon King carefully looked at the place chosen by Hu Xiao, nodded to indicate his agreement, and said readily: "Okay, I will ask someone to prepare it."

"Someone will deliver the token to you in two days."

You know, there are only a few Demon Kings and Demon Kings who can open their own Demon Courts near Donghuang City.

Hu Xiao and Luo Shuiyan hurriedly saluted again and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's grace, I will never forget it."

Then the two left the imperial study.

Looking at Hu Xiao's departing back, a gleam of light flashed in the Demon King's eyes.

"I hope you can really turn the tide as your father said."

"Now that the demons are revived, this world is not peaceful."

Along the way, Luo Shuiyan was extremely excited. She took Hu Xiao's arm and said: "My king, I didn't expect that the Demon King valued you so much."

Hu Xiao nodded slightly: "Maybe it's because I saved his father."

"And there must be other reasons why he tried to win me over."

Luo Shuiyan was not stupid either, and nodded.

"But it's good this way. At least we can gain a foothold in Donghuang City, and at least the children can grow up safely here."

The next day, someone sent a token, which allowed Hu Xiao to build his own demon court near Donghuang City.

"After Lord Hu Xiao has this token, you can start construction at the place you have chosen before."

"Just tell me if you need anything."

"Thank you." Hu Xiao took the token and bowed his hands in thanks.

"You're welcome." The demon envoy smiled, "This is all we can do."

"The future revival of the demon clan depends on you!"

Hearing this, Hu Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a few words of greeting, he sent the demon envoy away.

After returning to the mansion, Luo Shuiyan saw Hu Xiao looking worried and hurriedly said.

"Is there something wrong with the king?"

Hu Xiao shook his head.

"No problem, I just suddenly thought of something."

"What is it?" Luo Shuiyan asked curiously.

Hu Xiao's eyes turned and fell on Luo Shuiyan.

"I didn't understand why the Demon King asked us to move the Demon Court to this place."

"Just now, I figured it out."

"It's not just because I saved the previous Demon King, but more because they use us as a shield."

"If the demons really come here, the first to bear the brunt will be the demon courts near Donghuang City."

He noticed this when he was looking at the map in the imperial study room.

Although there are not many demon courts around Donghuang City, there are not a few.

If you want to attack Donghuang City, the first to attack is the demon courts nearby.

"But we can't help it, right?" Luo Shuiyan frowned slightly.

Hu Xiao nodded, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

If he doesn't move, Huwang City will probably be the first demon court to be destroyed.

After moving here, there are at least 100,000 mountains ahead to resist the demons.

After a brief chat with Luo Shuiyan, Hu Xiao decided not to stay here any longer.

Although no one knows when the demons will fully recover, it will be more dangerous if Hu Wangcheng continues to stay there.

"I'm leaving now."

"Stay here with the children, don't leave Donghuang City during this period."

"Don't worry, my king!" Luo Shuiyan smiled softly and looked at Hu Xiao.

Then he personally sent Hu Xiao out of Donghuang City.
