I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Hearing that Su Xian'er had finally gotten to the point, and such an important matter at that, Xiao Se couldn't help but ask, "What kind of bet is it?"

Based on what Su Xian'er said earlier, the bet must not have been fulfilled, which is why Su Xian'er asked her to continue the bet from the previous generation.

"It's very simple. We're betting on whether humans and demons can coexist peacefully. Your mother says yes, we say no."

"Uh……"

Xiao Se couldn't help but feel a pang of worry for her mother.

Can humans and transgender people coexist peacefully?

Her mother doesn't seem very bright either; how could she make such a bet?

Isn't this a situation where we're bound to lose?

Seeing Xiao Se's tense expression, Su Xian'er smiled again.

Do you think your mother will lose?

Su Xian'er looked up at the moon and said wistfully, "You are far inferior to your mother."

Xiao Se: "..."

While this may be true, who would want to be looked down upon? Especially since Xiao Se is outwardly humble but inwardly arrogant. Su Xian'er's comments made him furious.

"Don't be unconvinced. If your mother hadn't died, she would have already won. Humans and demons can indeed coexist peacefully, as long as both races have similar strength, peace can be achieved."

Although she did not bring peace, she illuminated the path forward for the demon race with her own life, and showed them the prospect of peaceful coexistence between humans and demons.

Hearing Su Xian'er say this, Xiao Se suddenly woke up.

Since the appearance of the nine demon kings, although there are still conflicts between humans and demons, large-scale conflicts have become rare.

The nine demon kings each guarded their own territory, while only the lesser demons roamed outside.

Xiao Se felt that peace between humans and demons was impossible because Lin Yi was often out slaying demons and monsters, and because the Jingye Division had many cases of demons harming people.

But in reality, Su Xian'er was right.

It could even be said that the human race and the demon race have now achieved peace.

Of course, since it was a bet, the other party wouldn't just accept that she had won so easily and then send their entire clan to help her break the curse.

Peace must be peace in the true sense of the word.

While her mother didn't exactly win, she didn't exactly lose either. Even if she had lost, she wouldn't have been able to fulfill the bet.

They're already dead, what can they use to break the curse on the fox clan?

"Does the senior want to continue the bet?"

Xiao Se calmed down. Since her mother had paved the way for her, it wouldn't be a bad idea to follow in her mother's footsteps.

Moreover, judging from Su Xian'er's demeanor, she couldn't refuse to continue this bet today.

She was driven by curiosity to go up the mountain; it was her own choice.

Su Xian'er took out a token and tossed it to Xiao Se, saying calmly, "The bet isn't something I want to do or not; it automatically takes effect when you come to me."

However, don't oversimplify things. Just because I won't interfere with you fulfilling the bet doesn't mean others won't.

To put it bluntly, Yan Qingqiu is plotting to disrupt the peace between the human and demon races and attempt to instigate a major war.

"Yan Qingqiu?"

“That’s right, it’s the patriarch of the Yan clan. She’s much more ruthless than me. The three of us made the bet together, and she won’t sit idly by and watch you succeed like I did.”

Su Xian'er was also giving Xiao Se a reminder; she and Yan Qingqiu actually had a tacit understanding.

Although the two clans had broken ties, both sides were trying to avoid contact and conflict as much as possible, thanks to the restraint of their clan leaders, although the clan leaders did maintain contact with each other.

Su Xian'er and Yan Qingqiu were actually betting on the same thing, which was due to the lessons left by their ancestors, making them realize that the fox clan always chose the wrong side when it came to choosing sides.

Every time there's a battle for destiny, they're on the losing side. Who can withstand that? The fact that the fox clan still has the Yan and Su clans is already a testament to their great fortune.

Therefore, Su Xian'er and Yan Qingqiu have chosen sides this time.

If you don't know whether to choose A or B, then choose both. No matter who wins or loses, there will always be a winner.

Whoever wins the bet becomes the clan leader; that makes perfect sense.

With Su Xian'er's reminder, Xiao Se realized that the bet wasn't so easy to win. Even though her mother had pointed out the way, it wasn't an easy path to take.

What is this token?

"The Order of the Alliance Leader of the Ten Thousand Demons: From this moment forward, you may command all demons under heaven with this order, and the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance will be at your disposal. You are now the new Alliance Leader of the Ten Thousand Demons."

"What?"

Xiao Se was shocked, feeling as if the injured token was becoming too hot to handle.

The Ten Thousand Demons Alliance is one of the four great demonic sects. On paper, it is the weakest and has the shallowest foundation, but it is still a demonic sect!

She is a righteous person, and Lin Yi is also a righteous person. If she finds out that she has become the leader of the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance, how will she get along with Lin Yi in the future?

Xiao Se knew Lin Yi very well; he would never associate with harmful monsters and demons.

Not all demons are harmful, but the demons of the Ten Thousand Demon Alliance must have committed many evil deeds.

"Can I not be the leader of the alliance?"

Xiao Se said weakly, "Even if Su Xian'er said she was not as good as her mother, I don't want this hot potato anymore."

"Fine, if you refuse, it means you've admitted defeat. Now offer your life and pray for us!"

Su Xian'er spoke very seriously; she was not joking.

If Xiao Se accepts the token, she will have a chance to win the bet; if Xiao Se doesn't accept it, then she will die now.

There was no other choice.

Xiao Se felt a chill run down her spine, knowing she was on a sinking ship with no way out, and since she had chosen to get on it herself, she had no choice but to agree.

Thinking of this, a resolute glint flashed in Xiao Se's eyes. He gripped the token tightly and said, "Since this token can command all the demons in the world, does that include you?"

"Of course, you can command the demons. Whether they listen to you or not depends on your own abilities."

Xiao Se: "..."

Then what's the difference between this thing and scrap metal?

Just like the former emperor Xiao Qian.

Although he was the emperor, he couldn't mobilize a single border soldier, and in the end, he could only watch helplessly as his power slipped away.

She has little real power with this token; it's just a formality, not a real authority.

Xiao Se clenched his fists, but he didn't give up.

Since there's only one choice, we have no choice but to go all the way.

“I accept the bet, but I want to know if the fox clan has the ability to help me break the curse.”

I'm not sure.

Su Xian'er was quite honest and did not deceive Xiao Se.

"Only you know how to break the curse of fate, but when you need it, every fox in the clan will obey your command, even if it means their death."

This means mobilizing the entire clan's strength.

Let alone her own people, even she herself would die if she deserved to, without any hesitation.

Of course, this is all predicated on Xiao Se winning.

"Okay, I'll continue this bet."

Xiao Se put the token into his pocket, and Su Xian'er said with relief, "You and your mother are not much different."

"hehe."

Will she forget her previous comments if I say nice things about her now?

Even if it's not much different, it's still a difference!

Su Xian'er didn't mind Xiao Se's chuckle and continued, "Anything you want to ask me, I will answer to the best of my ability."

What's the deal with those fox spirits in Yuzhang City?

"This is an experiment. My fox clan will protect the peace of Yuzhang City and ensure that no alien species will disturb humans. In exchange, fox slaves can collect spiritual energy within Yuzhang City."

Longhu Mountain knew about this, and they turned a blind eye, observing the results. Who knew they'd run into such a hothead as you, killing all those fox servants without even asking what happened?

Speaking of this, Su Xian'er was still a little angry.

Although those fox servants weren't considered members of the Tushan clan, they were still her subordinates. If she hadn't recognized Xiao Se as an old acquaintance at a glance, she definitely wouldn't have let her off so easily.

Xiao Se felt a bit embarrassed. No wonder the city was filled with demonic energy and no one had dealt with it. It turned out that a consensus had already been reached.

Even Longhu Mountain tacitly approved, but I never expected...

Xiao Se was certain that the person who actually did it was Lin Yi. If she hadn't met Lin Yi, she wouldn't have been sure, but since she had, then what happened last night must have been done by Lin Yi.

While others might not know, she did: Lin Yi had entered the third rank of both the Talisman Dao and Qi Refining stages.

Those powerful runes were exactly the kind that Lin Yi could use.

Because she was present, she took the blame for Lin Yi's actions. Although Lin Yi only killed two people, Su Xian'er believed that she was the one who killed them all.

That's true. Lin Yi used talismans to make his move, and she also majored in talismans. At the scene, anyone above the third rank would have been arrested, but she was the one who started the fire.

Of course, taking the blame for Lin Yi was no big deal, and Su Xian'er didn't pursue the matter further.

But Su Xian'er said that Lin Yi was a hothead, which Xiao Se could not accept.

How can he be considered a hothead?

"I don't think your assessment is correct. Just because others ignore the filth in this world doesn't mean everyone has to ignore it."

Perhaps in your eyes, what you did wasn't wrong, but what about those whose life force was exploited? Aren't they innocent too?

Or should they sacrifice their very lives to ensure the peace of the entire city?

“They went to Hongcui Tower voluntarily; no one forced them.”

Most ordinary people probably don't even know what kind of place that is, right? In the end, they are also victims.

Admittedly, you maintained a semblance of peace between the people and demons in Yuzhang County, and even Longhu Mountain did not interfere with you.
