Chapter 198 The Blood Soul Pill that Yao Xinghai refined

Kunxu chuckled, making a gesture of invitation, and said, "Lin Che Brother, your presence here is a blessing for our Ancient Demon City; how could we refuse to make you a commander of Ancient Demon City?"

"Your Majesty, this fellow…"

"Silence."

Kunxu looked coldly at Yun Lihai, who was kneeling on the ground, and said indifferently, "This Lin Che Brother is even stronger than me. Do you think a mere commander position is enough to make him stay in Ancient Demon City?"

Yun Lihai knelt on the ground, drenched in sweat, his face grave, his body trembling slightly, his eyes filled with fear.

After all, the man before him was His Majesty the Demon Emperor, and throughout the entire Tianyao County, Demon Emperor Kunxu was absolutely the strongest existence.

Kunxu put away his previous anger, continued to make a gesture of invitation, and then said, "Lin Che Brother, you've seen my poor management; he offended you. I apologize on his behalf."

Lin Che, however, took his arm and said with a smile, "Kunxu, you're joking. I haven't even thought about getting angry with this junior."

Seeing that Lin Che was not angry, Kunxu finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly invited Lin Che to the Lord's Mansion within Ancient Demon City.

And the Left Wing General, of course, had to bring the other generals here to the Lord's Mansion, for with the Demon Emperor's arrival, these ants had to come and pay their respects.

The group entered the Lord's Mansion. Beneath the gilded eaves, guards in dark armor stood like statues, their weapons' cold gleam intertwined with candlelight, reflecting a subtle tension in the air.

No sooner had they taken their seats at the main table than urgent footsteps echoed from outside the door. Five burly generals filed in, the clang of their armor abruptly ceasing as they all simultaneously knelt on one knee.

"Your humble generals respectfully greet Your Majesty!"

The Right Wing General, who led them, spoke with a booming voice, yet his peripheral vision kept scrutinizing Lin Che, who sat in the guest seat, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes.

Kunxu raised a hand, signaling everyone to rise, then picked up the celadon cup on the table, took a light sip, and chuckled, "I've called you all here today to introduce a distinguished guest, Lin Che Brother."

Before he finished speaking, a leopard-patterned general suddenly looked up, his rough voice carrying a tone of doubt: "Your Majesty, what is this person's origin? How can…"

Before he could finish, a chilling pressure suddenly surged around Lin Che. The teacup on the table instantly shattered, its fragments suspended in mid-air, coalescing without falling.

The generals' faces changed dramatically. They all drew their weapons, but found their bodies felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and even breathing became difficult.

Kunxu's pupils constricted slightly. He hurriedly stood in front of Lin Che and sternly shouted, "Presumptuous! Lin Che Brother is a distinguished guest I personally invited to guard Ancient Demon City. If any of you are disrespectful again…"

"It's fine."

Lin Che waved his hand lightly, and the pressure receded like a tide. The suspended fragments clattered to the ground. His smile was gentle, but a cold glint flickered in his eyes.

"It's good that the generals are cautious. I've heard that Tianyao County has been turbulent recently, with various forces coveting Ancient Demon City?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall grew even more solemn. Several generals exchanged glances, their expressions all stern, not expecting that this fellow knew so much.

Kunxu reseated himself, looking meaningfully at Lin Che: "Lin Che Brother is well-informed. Three days ago, people from other prefectures were already stirring at the border. If Lin Che Brother could assist…"

At this point, Kunxu deliberately paused, observing Lin Che's reaction.

Lin Che caressed the jade pendant in his sleeve, a mysterious smile playing on the corner of his lips: "Since Kunxu has invited me, I will naturally do my best, but I also have some conditions."

Outside the hall, thunder boomed, and strong winds swept dust against the window frames, swallowing all the hushed whispers into the vast night.

Kunxu narrowed his eyes and waved his hand at the people in front of him, seemingly wanting them to leave.

Under the Demon Emperor's command, these demon generals had all departed, leaving only Wang Lin able to sit on a chair, on equal footing with this Yin Void Realm expert.

Kunxu also showed no displeasure towards Wang Lin. After all, this commander was Lin Che Brother's junior brother; with this relationship, he would definitely lend his full support in the future.

"For countless years, our Tianyao County and Fire Demon Prefecture have always been at odds. In the battle with Fire Demon Prefecture two hundred years ago, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and on our side, two vice-marshals even died."

"Therefore, our Tianyao County harbors deep hatred for Fire Demon Prefecture. Now they are harassing us at the border, threatening our safety. Thus, if Lin Che Brother can help me, I, Kun, will surely repay you handsomely."

For countless years in Tianyao County, there were only eight main marshal positions, and even vice-marshals were only eight! But demon generals numbered in the hundreds!

Therefore, the killing of a vice-marshal was an absolute blow to Tianyao County. If they couldn't avenge them, who would be willing to join Tianyao County in the future?

Lin Che swirled the teacup in his hand, his expression calm, and said softly, "With my realm, annihilating the so-called Fire Demon Prefecture is effortless. But what about those old fellows? Do you have them under control?"

The 'old fellows' he referred to were naturally the Yang Solid Realm experts within Fire Demon Prefecture.

Those experts possessed hundreds of millions of demon power, making them incredibly strong, even many times stronger than ordinary Yang Solid Realm experts.

Demon Emperor Kunxu's expression was solemn. After some thought, he replied, "Lin Che Brother, as you say, what should be done?"

"This is an internal matter of the demon spirits. It's not good for an outsider like me to interfere, but my junior brother Wang Lin should have no problem."

Lin Che glanced at Wang Lin beside him, then said, "If anything truly happens, this venerable one will guarantee him. There should be no problem, right?"

Hearing this, Kunxu's gaze also fell upon Wang Lin. He then stood up, cupped his hands in a bow, and said, "Since Lin Che Brother has introduced him, then Wang Lin, the rest is up to you."

Wang Lin is, after all, in the Infant Transformation Stage. Once he breaks through to Ascension, he will be able to become a demon general. And the upcoming competition for demon generals should also help Tianyao County regain its honor.

If anything truly happened during this period, those fellows from Fire Demon Prefecture wouldn't possibly break their facade and unleash a massacre upon Wang Lin, who is only in the Infant Transformation Stage.

Moreover, Lin Che Brother has already made things so clear. If he still didn't make a move, wouldn't he offend Lin Che Brother?

Lin Che looked at Yao Xixue, the daughter of Blood Ancestor Yao Xinghai, behind him, and said softly, "Take out the Blood Soul Pill you have."

Yao Xixue's face froze. She subconsciously looked at Lin Che in front of her, not expecting that he actually knew she possessed such a thing as a Blood Soul Pill.

One must know that the Blood Soul Pill was an extremely precious elixir refined by Blood Ancestor Yao Xinghai.

It possessed miraculous effects. The user would crush the wax pill, combine their own blood with the blue blood in the wax pill, and at the moment of death, could use this pill to revive at a designated location, with all carried items also arriving at the designated location through the void.
