Chapter 233 The Blood Demon Society's Sincerity
The crow demon, with a hint of caution, whispered to its former leader:
"Boss, although Princess Muling is only at the Nascent Soul stage, you must not underestimate her."
If we don't handle our cooperation with her properly, our Blood Demon Society might find itself in trouble.
Upon hearing this, the tiger demon, who was at the late stage of the Void Refinement realm, sharply glanced at the crow demon.
His tone was slightly teasing: "Still calling me 'boss'? Aren't you afraid your new master will be unhappy?"
The crow demon was able to thrive among the demons because of its eloquent tongue.
Upon hearing the former leader's question, it immediately put on a smile and respectfully replied:
"Boss, although I'm following Princess Wood Spirit now, it's all for the Blood Demon Society!"
If it weren't for my intervention, by the time you returned, the Blood Demon Society brothers would probably have already scattered, leaving you as a lone commander.
If you can now cooperate with Princess Wood Spirit, wouldn't I have two powerful protectors? That would be a win-win situation!
The tiger demon snorted coldly after hearing this, but his tone already carried a hint of satisfaction:
"Alright, you're smart enough to know what's good for you. As long as you can help me make this collaboration happen, you'll get your share of the benefits."
The crow demon nodded repeatedly, a cunning glint in its eyes:
"Don't worry, boss, I will do my best and never let you down!"
After saying this, the two demons went together to pay their respects to Chen Wan'er.
The tiger demon stepped into the hall, and the moment his gaze fell on Chen Wan'er...
His pupils suddenly contracted, and a storm raged in his heart.
Although he had never explicitly examined Chen Wan'er's bone age, based on his years of experience, he could tell at a glance that this Wood Spirit Princess was definitely no more than twenty years old!
However, her cultivation had already reached the Nascent Soul stage, a talent that was simply astonishing.
Even among the demon race, those geniuses who are said to be one in a thousand years might not be able to reach such a level at such a young age.
The tiger demon suppressed his shock, put on a smile, and spoke with a hint of respect:
"I have long heard of Princess Muling's great name, and seeing her today, I can confirm that she truly lives up to her reputation!"
"The princess's cultivation at such a young age is truly ashamed of us!"
Chen Wan'er was somewhat surprised by the tiger demon's politeness, but she remained composed on the surface.
She smiled slightly and said modestly:
"You flatter me, senior. It's just a rumor from the outside world."
My humble skills are far inferior to those of my seniors.
I will need to learn more from my seniors in the future, and I hope they will not hesitate to offer their guidance.
The tiger demon laughed and waved his hand, "Princess, you're too modest!"
With your talent, given time, I'm afraid even an old man like me will be left far behind.
It is truly an honor for me to meet the princess today.
Chen Wan'er gently shook her head, her tone gentle:
"Senior, you flatter me. I have only had some fortunate opportunities; how could I dare to compare myself to you?"
"However, your reputation is renowned far and wide, and the Blood Demon Society will flourish under your leadership. I have always held you in the highest esteem."
The two exchanged pleasantries and pleasantries, creating a remarkably harmonious atmosphere.
Once the mutual flattery had subsided, the tiger demon suppressed his laughter and said seriously:
"Princess, I have come today to discuss important matters. Would you do me the honor of speaking with me?"
Chen Wan'er nodded slightly, her gaze calm: "Please speak, senior. I am all ears."
Only then did the two officially get down to business.
Seeing Chen Wan'er's calm expression, the tiger demon cut to the chase:
"I imagine there have been quite a few demons seeking out Her Highness recently. Our Blood Demon Society also has this intention and wishes to establish a long-term partnership with Her Highness."
As for your conditions, Your Highness, please feel free to name them. As long as it's within the Blood Demon Society's power, we will do our utmost to fulfill them.
After hearing this, Chen Wan'er pondered to herself:
Although the Blood Demon Society has a bad reputation among the demon race, its sincerity in this cooperation is quite evident, making it much better than those demons with ulterior motives in the past.
It seems my previous judgment was correct; the Blood Demon Society is indeed a partner worth considering.
She hesitated for a moment, then looked up at the tiger demon, her tone tinged with a hint of probing:
"Your arrival alone, senior, could it be that you fully represent the Blood Demon Society's stance?"
Upon hearing this, the tiger demon was overjoyed, knowing that the cooperation was promising, and quickly patted his chest to assure him:
"Your Highness, rest assured, now that I'm here, I can certainly make the decision."
If there is anything I cannot decide, I can consult our guild leader at any time, and I will never delay Her Highness's important business.
Chen Wan'er nodded, her tone gentle yet authoritative:
"Alright, senior, you've come from afar. Please rest for a while, and we can discuss the specifics in detail tomorrow."
After saying that, she gestured for the crow demon to take the tiger demon away and treat him well.
After the tiger demon left, Chen Wan'er immediately gathered Ye Lingyu, Lin Qingxue, and other senior brothers and sisters, and told them in detail about the tiger demon's purpose.
"Third Senior Sister, Fifth Senior Brother, Seventh Senior Sister, Eighth Senior Brother, what are your thoughts on the cooperation with the Blood Demon Society?"
Chen Wan'er's gaze swept over everyone, her tone carrying a hint of inquiry.
Upon hearing this, all four fell into deep thought.
After a moment, Ye Lingyu spoke first: "Junior Sister, from what you're saying, the Blood Demon Society is extremely obedient to us."
But we only have spirit energy beads; surely we don't deserve to make them so humble?
Lin Qingxue nodded in agreement: "Indeed, although the spirit power bead is precious, the Blood Demon Society has been established for many years and has seen all kinds of treasures."
Their humble stance suggests they have ulterior motives. But what do we possess that they could possibly want?
Chen Wan'er frowned slightly and pondered, "That's also what I'm wondering about."
The Blood Demon Society's attitude was indeed somewhat unusual, but the cooperation conditions they proposed were extremely tempting.
If they have ulterior motives, we can't discern them in a short time.
Baili Chen pondered for a moment, then slowly said:
"Perhaps, the Blood Demon is interested not only in the Spirit Power Bead, but also in your potential, Junior Sister."
After all, with your talent and cultivation, you are destined to become a giant among the demon race in the future.
Their current overtures may be paving the way for the future.
Lin Qingxue nodded in agreement: "Fifth Senior Brother is right."
The Blood Demon Society has been able to stand among the demon race for many years, so it must have something extraordinary about it.
They might be trying to leverage their junior sister's influence to solidify their own positions.
After listening, Chen Wan'er nodded thoughtfully:
"That makes sense. However, we should still proceed with caution, since the Blood Demon Society doesn't have a good reputation."
If they are truly sincere about cooperating, we might as well give it a try, but we must be careful.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Ye Lingyu smiled and said, "Junior Sister is indeed very thoughtful."
"In that case, when we negotiate with the tiger demon tomorrow, we'll play it by ear and see what their true intentions are."
Chen Wan'er smiled slightly, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes:
"Alright, then I will personally talk to them tomorrow."
If they are truly sincere, we will cooperate with them;
If they harbor ill intentions, we will never allow ourselves to be manipulated.
Once the agreement was reached, everyone dispersed to prepare for tomorrow's negotiations.
