"Oh? Village Chief, do you still know Daxicia?"

"Alas..." The old village chief sighed again, "So what can we do if we know, we can only try to avoid contact with them. To be honest, we are tired of disputes. There is no particular significance. We just want to live and live our lives in peace. We ordinary demons only have this pursuit. It is impossible for human beings to accept us. It is a long way to go back to the demon world. We have Family, those great ideals can’t support our family, and even put their lives in danger, it’s a bit selfish to say it, but compared to the future of the entire Demon Race, I care more about the future of my family.”

"Any life has the right to live. Humans have it, and we demons have it too. The meaning of life is different for everyone. It's not selfish." Lilith said softly.

Qian Yueying looked at Lilith's side face with soft eyes and a faint smile.

"Little girl, what you said...is really not like what you would say at your age..." The old village head widened his eyes, and then smiled, "But what you said is very reasonable. In this era, we It is very lucky that the demons can enjoy peace in the human world."

Lilith smiled and nodded, finished drinking the ginger tea, and stood up, Qian Yueying and his wife also stood up: "Thank you for your hospitality, we are about to leave, it is really wonderful to see such a village Surprise me."

"Ah? Little girl, are you going to leave so soon? Why don't you just stay with us?" The old village head also stood up, trying to keep Lilith back, "The outside world is too dangerous. Young and beautiful people like you Beauty, it is easy to become the target of those human nobles, they are all..."

"Thank you, village chief, but we can't stay here." Lilith declined.

"Why? Little girl, you should be about the same age as my granddaughter, you don't need to face the dangers of the outside world!"

"As I said just now, the meaning of life is different for everyone." Lilith smiled lightly, "Some things must be done by me, and some dangers must be faced by me."

After that, Lilith turned and left.

"Thank you for the ginger tea, village head, it's delicious. Also, I just threw away my shoes." The lady scratched her head and smiled wryly.

Qian Yueying nodded to the village head to show respect.

Chapter 180 Nine

Imperial Palace of St. Transit.

Naren walked in the gorgeous corridor, the clean and smooth marble floor reflected his body, and the hard armor met each other, making a crisp sound.

He straightened his back and breathed steadily, but there was a nervous expression on his face.

"What's the matter? Son, are you nervous?" The veteran beside him smiled.

"To tell you the truth, my lord, I am really nervous." Naren replied honestly.

"Hahahaha, I heard that you are a fierce general who has killed countless enemies on the battlefield, but now you are nervous when you go to meet a young girl?" The old minister laughed.

"But this is not an ordinary girl." Naren said with a wry smile, "A strong man of the holy rank may be able to overwhelm me with his aura alone."

"It's too exaggerated. I've seen that Lord Saint, and I don't feel any serious sense of coercion around her. Maybe it's because I'm not strong enough. After all, an old man like me has less sensitive nerves than young people like you. "

"My lord, you are joking. You are in good health, no worse than us young people at all." Nalen bowed his head slightly.

"Hahahaha!" The old minister laughed loudly, "You also learned to compliment people? But this is also a good thing. The tempers of the saint-level powerhouses are a bit weird, but people like to listen to good words. You do things by the saint's side. , you have to pay attention to what you say."

"Thank you for your advice, my lord."

"I can't tell you what to teach. If you complete this task successfully, you will definitely be promoted. If after working together this time, you are favored by Lord Saint, then you really have a bright future." The old minister patted Naren He leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Nowadays, the country is in turmoil, but it has also created many opportunities. Do you understand what I mean? Son."

Nalen narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Yes! My lord can wake up the dreamer! I will grasp it!"

"Okay, very good." The old minister was very satisfied, "Son, you are very smart, you will be promoted in the future, just don't forget me, old minister."

"My lord is too serious. I still have to rely on my lord for guidance and help in the future." Naren said respectfully.

He is not a fool, he is very clear about the purpose of this veteran.

Just like what the old minister said, the current state is in turmoil. In this chaotic period, many officials may be uncovered. Everyone knows this in their hearts, so secretly fighting and framing each other must be indispensable. Some people I want to take this opportunity to get rid of those who have a problem with me, and some people just want to strengthen my position.

It's ridiculous to say that the empire is in turmoil, but high-level officials still only consider their own interests.

This old minister will have such an attitude towards Nalen, simply because of the important task he took on this time.

In the past, these high-level officials who were proud and arrogant probably wouldn't even look at him, the little knight leader.

The king was very smart. The reason why he chose Naren to carry out this mission was because Naren was born as a commoner without any noble background. He had been away for a long time and had little contact with the people in the imperial palace.

This time, the newly recruited holy-level powerhouse is obviously the king's sword. It is specially used for the execution of this imperial turmoil. It is estimated that many nobles will lose their lives with this sword.

Therefore, Nalen, who worked with the lord saint, these old foxes have such sharp noses, they will definitely try their best to approach and win him over.

What Nalen wants is nothing more than a relationship of mutual use. If he wants to climb up, he still has to rely on these old foxes.

"arrive."

The old minister's voice pulled Naren back from his thoughts, and they stopped outside a room.

The old minister straightened his robe, his expression became serious, and Naren quickly stood up straight.

dong dong.

As soon as the old minister reached out and knocked on the door, the door opened immediately. Just when the old minister and Nalun were surprised, it was a maid who came out.

The maid was taken aback, and hurriedly saluted, "See you two adults."

The veteran waved his hand, and said in a low voice, "Where is the saint?"

"Lord Saint is in the room." The maid opened the door completely, while she stood aside, bowing respectfully.

"Let's go, son, meet Lord Saint." The old minister smiled at Naren.

"Yes." Naren took a deep breath and walked into the room.

What came into his eyes was a graceful figure from the back. The long dark golden hair was as smooth as silk, casually spread on the slender back. The girl seemed to hear the movement, and she turned her head slightly, causing Nalen's pupils to shrink sharply.

Eyelashes as long as black feathers, rose-colored pupils, without any impurities, the beautiful luster reveals a sense of agility, it seems that as long as they look at each other for too long, they will be sucked in, and the tight pink lips, With a small snow-white nose and a cold demeanor, it is extremely fascinating.

Naren doesn't believe in love at first sight, but at this moment, he can't deceive his heart.

He was moved...

The pressure brought by the holy rank powerhouse still exists, but it can't stop his beating heart like a deer.

"See Lord Saint!" The veteran saluted.

Lu Yue turned around and looked at the two of them indifferently.

Naren stood there in a daze, the veteran was startled, and quickly coughed loudly to remind him.

"!" Naryn finally came to his senses, and hurriedly saluted, "See Lord Saint!"

"Which of you is Naryn?" Lun Yue asked.

Nalen's heart skipped a beat, and he took a step forward, "This is my subordinate."

"My lord, the old minister has just announced His Royal Highness's order to Nalen, so I brought you here immediately." The old minister smiled and said, "He is a talent personally selected by His Royal Highness, and he will be able to cooperate well with Your Highness. A series of tasks, if you have anything, you can tell him."

"I have told the king that this operation, the main battle, will be carried out by my people. You and your men are only responsible for leading the way and all logistics work. Do you understand?" Lun Yue ignored the veteran and said to Naren.

"Yes! Everything is in accordance with the arrangement of Lord Saint!" Of course, Naren dared not have any objections.

"Okay, I remember your face, let's go back." After speaking, Lunyue walked into the room.

"I'm sorry!" The maid saluted again, and hurriedly followed Lunyue.

The veteran had a bit of embarrassment on his face, but he couldn't say anything. Although Lunyue was rude, but the status of the protector of the country was here, and his status was second only to the existence of the king.

In the face of absolute power, face and etiquette do not seem to be that important.

Lu Yue looked out of the window, and the maid stood beside her, looking at the old minister and Naren who were about to leave outside, wondering whether to remind the sage that the old minister has a high title and seniority, so he should It would be better to send him off.

But after thinking about it, she felt that this kind of thing was not what she should say as a servant, and the character of this sage was unpredictable to her, and she was afraid that if she accidentally offended her, her life would be in danger.

Chapter 190 Doubt

St. Trans Empire, the king's bedroom.

"Father, are you really planning to reuse that woman named Lunyue?"

A young man was sitting on a soft and gorgeous seat, frowning with thick blade-like eyebrows, looking at the squinting His Royal Highness King of the Empire who seemed to be asleep, and at the same time, his biological father.

The old king slowly opened his eyes, and asked softly, "What's the matter? Calisius, if you have any opinions, just say it."

The young man named Calisius has a handsome face, and his brows reveal the inherent heroism and pride of the royal family. He is wearing exquisite and handsome aristocratic costumes, and his skin is smooth. It seems that he has lived in the palace all year round and rarely experienced What is the reason for actual combat, but unexpectedly it will not give people a feeling of pampering.

"Yes, I think that this woman may really have the strength to be a powerhouse of the holy order, but there is really too little information about her. I sent someone to investigate her, and I don't know her identity and background. Even..." Calixie Si hesitated to speak.

"Is it even the same name as a general under the rumored Witch Lilith?"

Calisius was stunned, "It turns out that the father knows."

"It's a blessing that you can investigate to that extent. I'm surprised, but at the same time I'm very relieved. The information about the witch Lilith has become difficult to investigate due to the blockade of information by the Church of the Holy Light." The old king rubbed Rubbing her temples, "However, a name doesn't mean anything. I brought the priests stationed in our empire to meet her, and they confirmed that she is indeed a human being. Moreover, now that the country is in turmoil, who do you think I can use?" ,how many?"

"But, what if she has other ideas? Father, this is no joke!" Calisius frowned.

"Next, there will be many nobles who need to be purged. Those old guys have a strong background, and ordinary people can't solve them at all, so they need absolutely strong combat power. The two holy rank powerhouses of our empire, who has no selfishness, if it is the past, I can still open one eye and close one eye, but in this situation, do you think they can use it?" The old king looked at his son lightly with his cloudy old eyes, and said, "Even you are the same, Calixiu. Si, you need to be clear about the current situation. Maybe what you say now does have advice in it, but besides the advice, how much selfishness do you have? Afraid that people under your banner will be included in the purge list, let Lu Yue hold the hand , you can neither know it in advance nor operate from it, can you?"

"Uh..." Calisius couldn't answer for a moment.

"My princes, the power struggle also depends on the time. Usually you make small troubles, and I don't mind it. Now in this period, some people should be discarded, and they must be discarded." The old king coughed a few times and sighed slightly. The tone said: "You still need to hone yourself more, some things, in terms of choices, you must be decisive, my position will be yours sooner or later."

"Father... I'm really just worried about that woman... From the beginning to the end, she only said that she wants money and power, and her loyalty is worrying!" Calisius' tone obviously lost the confidence just now.

"I don't dislike greedy people. People like this are often more trustworthy. A transaction with a clearly marked price is the most reassuring transaction." The old king waved his hand, "Okay, I've made up my mind, You step back, by the way, Lunyue is going to take her family to the empire, and you can settle it properly when the time comes."

"Family?" Calisius raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, she doesn't seem to trust the ability of our imperial soldiers to do things. She plans to use her own people to complete the two crusades. Let's wait and see." After the old king finished speaking, he closed his eyes again and prepared to rest.

"Yes... My son will leave." Calisius didn't know what he was thinking, so he stood up and saluted, then turned and left.

After Calisius walked out, two maids came in with their heads down, ready to change the old king's clothes.

"Master Saint! Lord Saint! His Royal Highness is resting! It doesn't seem very good for you to disturb me now!"

"Step aside!"

"Ah! Lord Saint! Lord Saint!"

There was a loud noise, and the old king opened his eyes and stood up, seeing a young man in dragon scale armor coming in aggressively.

"Did you come just after Calisius left?" The old king sighed.

The person who came was none other than one of St. Trans's original holy rank powerhouses, Dragonman Pitner.

The old king waved his hand, and the two maids bowed and left with their heads bowed.

"See Your Majesty the King!" Pittner bowed his head.

"Sit down, look at you, your body is recovering very well." The old king picked up the black tea beside him and took a sip.

"Yes." Pittner nodded and sat down.

"Young people are good." The old king put down his teacup, "Unlike me, I have to obey my old age."

"Your Highness, you just said that His Royal Highness left just before I came in, so you must know what I want to say."

"I know what you want to say." The old king said quietly, "But you also need to know why I did this."

"His Royal Highness!" Pittner stood up and said solemnly, "It is a good thing to recruit a new protector of the country, but it is too early for her to perform such an important task! It is a matter of national security, I implore You, hand over the leadership of this mission to me! Let her cooperate with me to execute it!"

"What? Do you really want to quell the barbarian turmoil and hidden dangers of cults? If you want to go, go."

"His Royal Highness! You know I don't mean these! This is just a deterrent! What I want! Is the initiative to clear the mission!"

"Pittner." The old king patted the armrest of the seat, although it was not loud, it made Pittner quiet down immediately.

"The subordinate is here." Pittner clenched his teeth and lowered his head.

"How much have you followed me?"

"In the past 20 years, His Royal Highness has trained me from an unknown junior to a generation of powerful saints."

"Then do you think I trust you?"

"Yes! His Royal Highness has the same trust in me as I have in His Royal Highness!"

"Okay, it's good that you understand. What I want to say is that if you don't entrust this task to you, it's not because you don't trust you, but because you don't trust your way of doing things." The old king continued, "You You are still too young, and you are easily influenced by your emotions, this time is different from the past, you can't do it."

"Why!?" Pittner exclaimed.

"Recently, you have gotten very close to the daughter of a certain duke." The old king gently stroked his gorgeous ring, "The existence known as the most beautiful woman in our empire really matches you well in every way, you At this age, it's time to start a family, but her father, that is, a certain duke, has recently done some bad things secretly. I won't explain here. Don't worry, I won't do anything to him. I just hope, Before the empire gets out of this turbulent period, settle down a bit, and when everything is stable, I will personally arrange a grand wedding for you, understand, Pittner."

"Yes..." Pittner clenched his fists.

He could hear that the king thought he was doing things unfairly, but it was true, and he must have selfish motives, which he could not deceive himself.

On the other hand, the king is also warning him to let the duke calm down, otherwise, he may be stabbed.

Pittner knew the king, he would tell himself this matter, he had already shown great trust, the candy and the whip were used very well, he was unwilling, but he couldn't refute half a sentence.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the king... this subordinate will retire..."
