“Although Protector Eagle doesn't want me to say it, the details and process of the battle are also part of the intelligence.” Protector Left specially emphasized a sentence, and then slowly said, “Li Xianyu's left hand is a woman's nemesis. To be exact, it counters all female creatures.”

“You must know this. It was in this way that he used to subdue the eldest daughter of the Aoki family in j.a.pan, Aoki Yui.”

That battle was so famous that even those who did not pay much attention to it had heard about it. After all, its influence was so bad that it was hailed as the most immoral battle ever.

“However, after Protector Eagle experienced it personally, we have confirmed the authenticity of the allegation instead of it just being a rumour.”

After hearing this, they all looked bizarre, and the charming appearance and grumpy temper of Protector Eagle appeared in their minds. Then, they inevitably thought of Aoki Yui. Then, the image of Aoki Yui was replaced by Protector Eagle. Protector Right in the white cloak, as well as Protector Dragon, slowly s.h.i.+vered.

Protector Eagle was irascible and loud. To beat her up badly to the point of withdrawal, it showed that the battle not long ago had a great psychological shadow on her.

In fact, it was easy to understand with a bit of thinking. Fighting with the heir of the Li family was like sending themselves on a one way path to be insulted. Instead of hurting their opponent, they were raped.

Protectors Right and Dragon were secretly vigilant. They had put the Li family's heir into their blacklist. They were not to interact with him, nor fight with him.

On the contrary, Li Peiyun was relieved. He thought that Li Xianyu's accomplishments had soared to a point where he was able to do that to the S-cla.s.s Protector Eagle. It turned out that their genders were opposed to each other, so he was relieved.

“In other words, Baoze has noticed us. It's only a matter of time before they find out our stronghold with their strength. When the Emperor comes out of seclusion, we should consider relocating our secret base area,” Protector Rat said.

“If it wasn't for the sake of saving this kid, would we have been exposed so fast?” Protector Bull sneered coldly. “Li Peiyun, if you are grateful towards the Great Demons' Alliance, you better hand over the key to the Great Deities Palace.”

Li Peiyun said lightly, “If you have the ability, come and s.n.a.t.c.h it.”

Both of them looked at each other as the invisible electric sparks crackled and exploded.

Hu Yao frowned. “You two, say a few words less. Protector Bull, even without Li Peiyun, Baoze has noticed us. Don't underestimate the power of Baoze.”

He winked at Protector Bull quietly. Li Peiyun had the key to the Great Deities Palace, which was true. However, he would never take the key with him, or he would be robbed by Baoze's people.

If one were to want to get the key to the Great Deities Palace, one had to force a confession or adopt a soft approach. Li Peiyun had a strong character. He was so proud that he would rather not bend, so it was not an option to force a confession. Hu Yan really appreciated Li Peiyun's talent, hence he preferred to persuade him to join the Great Demons' Alliance.

“In addition, I have to inform you that as the number of members increases, and as the number of a.s.sembly spots nationwide increases, our finances have dried up.”

The development and growth of a force can never be separated from money. The Great Demons' Alliance was an underground organization, and it was difficult to make money in the foreign business industry. With the rapid increase in the number of members, the money of the Great Demons' Alliance was not enough.

Hu Yao was in charge of education and finance. “At present, there are two options in front of us. One is to ask members from all over the country to do everything to make money, to cheat, to abduct and to rob, basically to do everything possible. However, our a.s.sembly spots will be found out and exterminated by Baoze, the Buddhist-Taoist a.s.sociation and even the major families of the demon descendants' community. Our efforts will fall short.”

“The second option?” Protector Right asked. Her voice was very pleasant, clear and crisp, and had the unique magnetism of mature women.

“Let our alliance surface.” Hu Yao looked around and said, “We have acc.u.mulated a very considerable power. We can choose to talk with Baoze. The power lurking in the shadow is the water duckweed and the castle in the air. It is doomed not to last.”

This was why he joined the Great Demons' Alliance. His tone was excited. “We will set up the largest foreign species organization in history, to compete with Baoze, Buddhist, and Taoist a.s.sociations and the major families.”

“As long as Baoze and the Taoist and Buddhist a.s.sociation give a promise and a recognition of status, we can recruit, and then we can establish our own empire and system in society. This is the way out for our Great Demons' Alliance.”

The protectors looked at each other, and the relatively calm Protector Rat frowned. “It's not the time yet, I guess?”

Hu Yao acknowledged him and replied, “Soon. The power of the Wu family in the northeast has been greatly damaged, and the Northeast demon alliance has benefited a lot from it. Taoist Venerable has just fallen. Both the strength and morale of the Taoists have fallen to the bottom. We are now waiting for the opening of the Great Deities Palace. At that time, a large number of experts from the demon descendants' community will come to…”

Speaking of this, he smiled. “Everyone has heard from me. The big guy from Baoze, who wants to cut his va.s.sal… Would he miss such a good opportunity? The 'party of justice' in the demon descendants' community would surely lose a lot and usher in a wave of reshuffle. This is one of our chips. I am confident that we can persuade Baoze. Our Great Demons' Alliance will be able to break away from the shadow and become an impartial force.”

After listening for a long time, Li Peiyun felt that he understood. Yet he didn't. The Great Demons' Alliance wanted to transform from an underground party into a legitimate organization. Baoze, for reasons unknown, regarded the Great Demons' Alliance as a serious problem… My brain is going to explode.

He hated this kind of games between big forces. In this game, good and evil would retreat to one side first, and everyone could form a coalition for their own goals temporarily, and then turn cold in the next second.

They could greet with smiles on their faces, but would have a gun in their hands which were behind their backs. It was too complicated. It reminded him of his junior high school years, where Grand-teacher forced him to read modern history. The relations.h.i.+p between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, as well as between warlords, was like this. Mr. Zhou had a secret meeting with Mr. Jiang today and Xiao Zhang tomorrow. Intrigue, mind games in secret.

Grand-Teacher often said that those who wanted to be talented needed to possess knowledge. If one wanted to be a hero, it was enough to read history. So, Li Peiyun became a hero, and a pretty good one.

“However, there's something I'm puzzled about,” said Hu Yao with a frown. “A few days ago, I talked with the Emperor. She didn't seem to want the alliance to emerge from the shadows. Although she didn't say it, I felt that she was very imposing. I hope you can help me persuade her.”

All the protectors thought about it – no objection. They nodded and agreed.

“Then, it's time for us to welcome the Emperor out.” Protectors Left and Right took the lead. They got up and walked towards the right side of the cave, where there was a long dark corridor.

Li Peiyun followed Hu Yao, and they fell behind naturally. Hu Yao was new to the Great Demons' Alliance. His qualifications were not deep. Li Peiyun was simply an outsider.

The corridor was deep and long. It was pitch-dark inside. Even if the vision of demon descendants were far better than that of ordinary people, you can't see things when there was no light.

Click! Protectors Left and Right, who were in front, turned on the flashlight, and a group of people walked silently in the silent corridor, making tiny footsteps.

“Did they really bring me to see the Emperor, or did they take the opportunity to lure me to the mountainside and force me to hand over the key to the Great Deities Palace?” Li Peiyun guessed in his heart.

In the end, the curiosity of the Emperor outweighed the side of caution. He was always very determined. He was bold and skillful, and he was not afraid of any dangerous place. Moreover, with his character, he could never turn around and run away.

After walking for ten minutes, Li Peiyun suddenly heard the sound of breathing.

Wheeze… Wheeze…

From deep in the corridor came the sound of breathing like a giant beast, and a gust of fishy wind welcomed them. He felt that he had entered the dragon's nest by mistake. At the end of the corridor, there was a sleeping dragon.
