Chapter 617 Offering Fish 53
Mingli secretly regretted that he had actually thought this guy was rising to power; it was utterly absurd and laughable!
The centipede in front of me was exactly the same as before; it was still a complete waste.
Unaware that he had been secretly cursed as a piece of trash by Ming Li countless times, Yu Chi was behaving unusually well-behaved at this moment.
He quickly stepped forward, his face full of fawning smiles, and invited Lin Jiu and Sima Jiao to sit down. He then eagerly snatched a plate full of fruit from a maid and presented it to the two of them with utmost respect.
At this moment, Youchi was completely devoid of the arrogance and rudeness that one would expect from a demon lord. Instead, he displayed only a keen insight into the situation and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
As the saying goes, "Those who understand the times are wise and cunning," and for You Chi now, it is clear that he is no match for Lin Jiu and Sima Jiao with his current strength.
Besides, his good life has only just begun. If he were to lose his life because of a moment of impulsiveness, wouldn't that be a huge loss?
Therefore, attempts like Ming Li's to revive the glory of the Demon Realm are simply asking for trouble and are a waste of effort!
In reality, everyone knows perfectly well that they don't think much of each other, but they can only barely maintain a superficial superior-subordinate relationship.
Lin Jiu casually fiddled with the fruit unique to the Demon Realm in his hand, but his gaze remained fixed on the seemingly flexible and spineless You Chi in front of him, and he revealed a mocking smile: I want the Demon Realm!
It was just four simple words, but for You Chi, it was like a bolt from the blue, causing his expression to change drastically.
At the same time, all the people from the Demon Realm present were also in a panic and drew their weapons, staring at Lin Jiu as if facing a formidable enemy, just in case.
Youchi first glanced at Sima Jiao, who had remained silent from beginning to end, and then shifted his gaze to Lin Jiu, who was smiling as beautifully as a fairy in a painting. After her face twitched slightly, she forced herself to remain calm and replied with a smile: "You really know how to joke!"
However, when faced with Youchi's clearly self-deceptive response, Lin Jiu not only showed no sign of backing down, but instead further widened the curve of her lips into an even wider arc—
Clearly, she had keenly sensed the other person's feigned ease while their inner turmoil was palpable.
So Lin Jiu simply stopped beating around the bush and said directly: I'm not joking with you. I've said it before, I want to get this Demon Realm!
These words are both unreasonable and arrogant!
Youchi's face turned extremely gloomy this time, as if a storm was about to break.
His choice to show weakness was entirely due to his ability to assess the situation, not because he was willing to be trampled underfoot by others.
Moreover, he wasn't alone here; there were other demons as well. If he were to give in so easily, wouldn't he lose face and find it difficult to establish himself in the future?
Youchi pondered to himself: Although these two people in front of him seemed to have unfathomable strength, who could guarantee that they had no flaws? Perhaps they were just putting on a show, and he might be able to deal with them easily.
Thinking of this, Youchi no longer hesitated and unleashed his ultimate move, launching a full-scale attack on Lin Jiu.
However, at the next moment, something happened that shocked Youchi—Sima Jiao, who had been silent, suddenly waved his sleeve!
In an instant, a blazing and violent flame surged forth like a raging torrent, sweeping straight toward him.
Faced with such a sudden change, Youchi dared not be negligent and hurriedly mobilized the demonic energy within his body in an attempt to resist the raging flames.
At the same time, a feeling of annoyance welled up in his heart: "Damn it! Does this guy want to ruin my unparalleled handsome face?"
Seeing the fire growing more and more ferocious, seemingly unaffected by his demonic energy, and even escalating further, Youchi was extremely anxious.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, causing his eyelids to twitch uncontrollably...
