Misery: There is a pawn shop here

Chapter 93 The Queen's Nine Disasters
"Is there a pawnshop..."

Deep in the Flame Demon City, behind the curtain, a figure was seen sitting upright, his face as white as snow, his appearance cold and elegant, his dark red robe embroidered with magic patterns in gold thread, his blood surging like a dark tide with every move he made, his eyes were like purple crystals in a cold pond, his hair hung down like a nine-day night waterfall, his red lips slightly parted, faintly revealing a murderous aura.

Facing the person on the high seat under the curtain, even the two chief prophets, Guizhi and Mingjian, lowered their heads and acted cautiously, which shows how powerful he is.

"In your opinion, is that really what the pawnshop is capable of?"

Upon hearing this, Gui Zhi replied, "My Queen, according to what the Buddha-Swallowing Boy said, he had previously made a deal with a pawnshop, where they casually took out the Living Buddha's blood and gave it to him. He then traded with the pawnshop for Zhu Yan, but the pawnshop obtained Zhu Yan through barter to complete the deal with the Buddha-Swallowing Boy. So, I think he has some abilities, but not to the point of being truly omnipotent. Otherwise, he could just create things directly, so why would he need to trade?"

"How can we guarantee that he really has the ability to resurrect the Demon Lord?" asked the Queen of the Evil Clan, Queen Jiuhuo of the Demon Realm, who was high up.

"This..." Gui Zhi lowered his head even lower upon hearing this, "We are just..."

At this time, Ming Jian spoke again: "But the Demon Lord's Yama Desolate God Slash is indeed in that pawnshop."

"I understand this matter. You can leave first. Let me think about it and make a decision." Jiuhuo said with his sleeves raised.

Guizhi and Mingjian both agreed upon hearing this, then bowed and left the palace. After the two ghost prophets left, Jiuhuo closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then a familiar aura appeared.

Jiu Huo slowly opened his eyes, looked down, and said, "You are here, Master Fu Ying."

A man in a blue cloak appeared, with black hair tied in a crown and a golden mask covering half of his face. Only his white jade jaw as sharp as a knife and his cherry lips were pale and cold.

"Master Fu Ying, I'm here to meet the Queen." The man bowed to Jiu Huo.

"I think you have already heard from the Shikigami on the way here what the two prophets reported this time. What do you think?" Jiuhuo raised his hand to signal the visitor to stand up.

"Since it's a transaction, the price is always negotiable," Master Fu Ying replied. "Regardless of whether the pawnshop possesses such strength, I believe the Demon Realm has room for communication with it. This will only benefit the Demon Realm in its subsequent battles. After all, didn't Tunfo also mention that the cultivator from the Bitter Realm named Shengzong was reborn after entering the pawnshop and then leaving."

"So you're suggesting a deal?"

"We'll try to negotiate first. Besides, there's room for bargaining chips. If he truly has the ability to revive the Demon Lord, then we can also offer conditions to allow him to awaken the Red Emperor."

"Emperor Zhu...he..."

When Jiu Huo heard Master Fu Ying mention this, he was panicked for a moment, but it only lasted for that moment.

"I understand." After a moment of confusion, Jiu Huo regained his composure. "Assuming he really has this ability, what would the price be?"

Upon hearing this, Master Fu Ying paused for a moment, then curled her cherry lips and said, "Your Majesty, there's no need to worry about this. The Demon Lord and the Red Emperor will both be there. How could that pawnshop break into the Otherworldly Demon Realm to snatch people? Moreover, the initiative in this transaction is destined to be on our side."

Jiu Huo frowned slightly upon hearing this. "Since that person dared to offer such conditions, he must have considerable support. We must not underestimate the enemy. You should know the character of the Zhu Emperor."

"It's precisely because I know something about him that..." Master Fu Ying said, "Awakening the Red Emperor will make it possible to proceed to the next step of the plan. If there really is a way to advance the expansion process, it's not impossible. As for the price, that person's strange conditions may have their origins. But even if that person can really get through the combined forces of the Demon Lord and the Red Emperor, I have already chosen the battlefield, where the Heavenly Demon Pool is located. Even if that person truly has the ability to traverse heaven and earth, it will be difficult for him to act recklessly."

In the Demonic Pool…After Master Fu Ying’s reminder, Jiu Huo came back to his senses.

Indeed, if it is true as Master Fu Ying said, the Otherworldly Demon Realm does not have to worry about these things. No matter how capable that person is, he will not be able to act rashly in the Otherworldly Demon Realm.

Perhaps I could really make contact with him first, if I could really wake him up...

Even though Jiuhuo had repeatedly reminded himself to stay calm, he still couldn't suppress the restlessness in his heart.

Zhu Wu...

Master Fu Ying looked at Jiuhuo. Even though Jiuhuo had tried hard to suppress the thoughts in his heart, he could still see the impulse in the other person's heart.

The time has not come yet, and there are some things he has not fully explained to Jiuhuo about Jiuhuo's next child, but it is not the time to worry about it yet.

Only when Emperor Zhu returns can he proceed to the next step of his plan. He is not worried about the price the exchange will have to pay, but he is only worried that the man does not have enough ability to truly push the transaction forward.

"In that case, let's prepare to visit that inn again." Jiu Huo said, "Call back the Buddha-Swallowing Boy..."

"Don't worry, Queen." Master Fu Ying said, "If that pawnshop is truly as mysterious as Swallow Buddha described, then why would we need to summon Swallow Buddha to enter with the key? A place like this should be able to answer any request you may have."

As soon as the words were spoken, a loud laugh echoed in the palace.

"This kind of thinking is rare in the mortal world. You are indeed a demon from another world. You have an admirable mind."

At some point, at the gate of the palace, a majestic figure appeared, holding a sword at his hip and his hands behind his back, and had been standing there for who knows how long.

"Who are you!" Jiuhuo stood up directly, his voice cold, his eyes cast towards the figure at the gate.

"There's a pawnshop messenger. Number 03 has seen the Demon Queen. As for this one, I think he's a military strategist. Nice to meet you."

"Number 03?" Jiuhuo looked at Beichen Yin who was not far away. The other person had a restrained aura and looked no different from an ordinary person, but his majestic demeanor was enough to show that he was extraordinary.

"Making something appear out of thin air is indeed an extraordinary method." Master Fu Ying said at this time, "It seems that there are some people in front of you who are also pawnshop messengers."

"There are currently four pawnshop envoys," Beichen Yin said with a smile, "but this has nothing to do with you two. The pawnshop sensed the exchange's intentions, so the owner sent me here to greet you two. If you two are interested in speaking with the owner, please come in with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge black hole appeared out of thin air on the left side of Beichen Yin. It was pure black and nothing could be seen inside the black hole.

"Hey, why are you in such a hurry?" Master Fu Ying said, "I have some information. I think it wouldn't violate the rules of your store if I could find out a little bit about it."

"Hmm?" Beichen Yin narrowed his eyes slightly. "I wonder what this think tank from the otherworldly demon world wants to ask me?"
