Fantasy: Reborn as a Tiger Demon, the more children, the stronger you become.

Chapter 145 I'll give you a great opportunity!

At this moment, the Demon Emperor's aura was like a lamp running out of oil, about to be extinguished at any moment.

"Your Majesty, how are you? I have some healing pills here." Niu Le looked anxious and quickly took out all the pills he carried with him.

"It's no use, my foundation has already been destroyed by that old man." The Demon Emperor shook his head slightly.

"These ordinary pills are useless to me now, and there are no pills in this world that can cure my current injuries."

"Let's activate the grand formation first."

"It shouldn't be long before that old man leads the human army to attack this place."

"With this great formation in place, I believe you can hold out for a few more days."

"During this period, other demon emperors will come to provide support."

At this point, the Demon Emperor's gaze fell on Hu Xiao once again.

He should have died long ago.

The pills that Hu Xiao gave him allowed him to prolong his life for a while.

But he also knew that there was probably only one Tiger Roar elixir of this kind.

"You must be Hu Xiao."

Tiger Roar nodded.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, I am Tiger Roar."

The Demon Emperor stopped looking at Hu Xiao and turned to look at Niu Le.

Niu Le immediately understood and led the Demon Emperor and Hu Xiao to a room next door.

The Demon Emperor sat or lay on the bed, his aura even more weak, his face deathly pale.

"Niu Le, the news of my injury can't be kept secret for long. Just release the news now so they can prepare in advance."

"Summon the Crown Prince and Princess over as well; I have some things to tell them."

"Yes!" Niu Le immediately bowed.

After Niu Le left, the Demon Emperor forced a smile and looked at Hu Xiao.

"I already knew about your situation from Niu Le. You're quite good and very talented."

"I am very pleased that my demon race has a demon king like you."

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor." Hu Xiao quickly cupped his hands in thanks.

The Demon Emperor smiled and gestured for Hu Xiao to sit down beside him.

It was only then that Hu Xiao realized that this demon emperor was not as pretentious as he had imagined; on the contrary, he seemed rather approachable.

"Do you know why the human race broke the agreement between the human and demon races and started this war?"

Hu Xiao was stunned when he heard this. He had been investigating this matter for some time but had no clue. Why would the Demon Emperor bring it up at this time?

Seeing that Hu Xiao remained silent, the Demon Emperor smiled.

"Your true strength right now should be at the level of a six-star demon king."

"You'll probably understand once you reach the Demon Emperor realm."

The Demon Emperor looked at Hu Xiao and saw that he spoke very decisively, as if Hu Xiao was destined to reach the Demon Emperor realm.

Tiger Roar did not interrupt the Demon Emperor, but listened quietly to him.

"After obtaining the Demon Emperor title, each advancement in rank is like ascending to heaven on foot."

"It took me several hundred years to reach the ninth-level demon emperor."

"The old man I fought today was also a ninth-tier Martial Emperor, just like me."

Tiger Roar was aware of this as well.

Moreover, judging from the information he received, that old man hadn't appeared for a long time, presumably because he was in seclusion trying to break through to the Martial Emperor realm.

"However, he reached the ninth-level Martial Emperor several hundred years earlier than me."

"In the past few hundred years, the human race and the demon race have actually lived in peace. There have been occasional minor conflicts, but they were all small skirmishes."

"Nobody took it seriously."

"The reason he started this war was not for the sake of humanity, but to kill me."

Tiger Roar narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.

Why?

"Does he feel his time is coming to an end and want to kill you to prevent future trouble?"

"But among the human race, there are still many Martial Emperors, and among the demon race, there are also many Demon Emperors."

"Killing you alone doesn't seem to affect the overall situation."

After hearing this, the Demon Emperor nodded slightly.

"Yes, killing me wouldn't change the bigger picture, but he doesn't just want to kill me, he wants my heart."

"What?" Hu Xiao's pupils dilated sharply upon hearing this, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"He wants your heart."

The Demon Emperor nodded emphatically: "You may not know this yet, but our race is called the Void Beasts."

"We are born with the ability to control the void. Ordinary demon kings who want to control the void must reach the fifth rank or above."

"Our race is born with the ability to control the void."

"Our heart is a great tonic for humans."

"If that old man kills me and turns my body into a pill, he will surely be able to break through the Martial Emperor realm and reach the Martial God realm after consuming it."

"This is the fundamental reason why they launched this war between the human and demon races."

Hu Xiao was stunned for a long time after hearing this.

Just as he had guessed, the war was launched by some people for their own selfish interests.

But what he didn't expect was that the entire war was for one purpose: to help Ancestor Qingming break through to the Martial Emperor level.

"Then he definitely won't let you go this time you leave."

"Yes." The Demon Emperor nodded emphatically again.

Upon hearing this, Hu Xiao suddenly sensed something was amiss. Yao Hua was of such high status, why was he telling him these things?

Hu Xiao stopped guessing and asked directly, "Your Majesty, you've told me so much, there must be something you need to say, right?"

"Why don't you just say it?"

Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor burst into laughter.

Dealing with smart people is definitely more convenient.

"I'm keeping you here for only one purpose: I hope you'll promise me one thing."

"If you agree to this, I will grant you a great fortune."

Hu Xiao frowned.

He could sense that what the Demon Emperor had asked him to do was no small matter, and that his great fortune was certainly not insignificant.

"Don't refuse yet, listen to what I'm about to tell you about this great opportunity."

"If you agree, I will pass on all the knowledge I have acquired in my life to you."

Upon hearing this, Hu Xiao gasped in shock. The Demon Emperor's strength had reached the level of a nine-star Demon Emperor.

If someone passes on all their knowledge to me, wouldn't my abilities improve by leaps and bounds?

"Then, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, what do you want me to do?" Hu Xiao took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart.

The Demon Emperor looked at Tiger Roar and spoke with a smile.

"Actually, this matter is quite simple: help me protect this demon realm."

"Huh?" Hu Xiao was taken aback.

"Your Majesty, you overestimate me. With my current dead strength, I am no match for the opponent."

"Besides, you have so many demon emperors under your command, wouldn't it be better to entrust this matter to them?"

It wasn't that Hu Xiao didn't want this great opportunity, but he knew very well that with his own strength, he would have a hard time even fighting against Yu Huai, let alone an old man.

You have to understand that the things a powerful old man who is about to die can do are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
