Chapter 321 Reunion with the Demon Lord
Chapter 321 Reunion with the Demon Lord
After returning to the City of Ten Thousand Demons, Gu Yuchuan wanted to talk to the Demon Lord about the escape from the dragon, but the Demon Lord was elusive and he didn't know where to seek an audience with him. If they were in the Cloud Sea Marsh, he could have just gone to the Cloud Sea Heavenly Palace to ask for an audience, but now they were in the Azure Cloud Realm, and he really didn't know where to go to ask the Demon Lord for an audience.
Therefore, he could only go and complete the mission first, and meet the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor. The other party's cultivation and status were higher than his, so the probability of him knowing about the Demon Lord was much greater.
However, he did not expect that seeing the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor would be so difficult. He had been sitting in the hall drinking tea for two hours and had not seen a trace of the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor. The other party was really too busy.
The maid refilled Gu Yuchuan's teacup again. Gu Yuchuan couldn't hold back any longer: "Could you please ask if the Demon Emperor is free to see me today? Give me a definite answer. If he is, I'll continue to wait. If not, I'll go back and won't waste any more time here."
While waiting, there was nothing to do, which was a waste of life. Even Gu Yuchuan, with his good temper, couldn't help but get a little angry. However, this was not something that the maid could give him an answer to.
"If Your Highness is in a hurry, you can come back after you finish your business. If you are not in a hurry, you can continue to wait."
After saying that, the maid left, which made Gu Yuchuan's face change with anger. However, he was anxious to see the Demon Emperor Yunluan and the Demon Lord because he had something important to say, so he could only continue to wait.
Fortunately, half an hour later, he finally met the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor. The other party looked a bit haggard and was obviously very tired.
"You must be getting impatient. I've been incredibly busy. This matter was already a bit overwhelming, and then I went to the Tianxuan Sect again, which only made things worse. I haven't even congratulated you yet on becoming a mid-grade exotic beast. In terms of bloodline, you're no different from me. With this bloodline, becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator won't be difficult at all. Your path to Nascent Soul will be very smooth."
Gu Yuchuan clasped his hands in thanks: "Thank you, Demon Emperor. I also hope that my path to the Nascent Soul stage will be very smooth. I have two things to discuss with you. The first is my mission, which I have already completed perfectly."
The Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor nodded: "You did an excellent job on this mission. You could say that you deserve the most credit for breaking through the Heavenly Profound Sect. So a small merit is not enough. I have decided to upgrade you to a major merit. You now have three major merits. Let me remind you of something. There is a very powerful top-grade magic weapon in the merit shop, the Hunyuan Umbrella. You can exchange for it. I know you are a weapon refiner, but this Hunyuan Umbrella cannot be refined by a level three weapon refiner. There is a big gap between top-grade magic weapons and high-grade magic weapons. It requires the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage to refine."
He knew that the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor wanted to invest in him, and her advice must be the best advice. He immediately agreed: "Thank you for your guidance, Demon Emperor. I will exchange for this Chaos Umbrella as soon as I go out. I also want to know how powerful the things you advocate are."
He paused for a moment, then began to say his second matter: "My lord, I have another matter to discuss. I would like to see the Demon Lord. I wonder if you could introduce me to him?"
The Demon Emperor Yunluan frowned slightly, clearly puzzled: "The Demon Lord is very busy these days. He has entrusted everything here to me, so I think you should tell me first if there's anything. If I can solve it, that would be best. If not, I'll report it to him, and only then can I guarantee you'll be able to see the Demon Lord."
Gu Yuchuan thought for a moment and then spoke up: "This matter is indeed quite complicated, and I am very certain that you cannot make the decision. However, since we have a personal relationship, I am willing to tell you."
He organized his thoughts before continuing, "As you know, I have advanced to become a three-clawed dragon, and my bloodline has advanced further. In the darkness, I received the idea that I could ride the dragon, and that if I could complete it, my bloodline would grant me the art of godhood. I think riding the dragon in the Canglan Realm is the best thing. This way, we can avoid the bloodshed in our Qingyun Realm and make our current war smoother. That's what I think."
When it came to such serious matters, the Cloud Phoenix Demon Queen became much more cautious. If this matter was indeed as Gu Yuchuan said, it would indeed have a great impact on the entire battle. However, she was not a dragon, and she herself did not know the specifics of the Dragon Walker, so she still needed to tell the Demon Lord.
She cast a mysterious spell, thus informing the Demon Lord of the matter.
"Alright, I've already relayed this message. The Demon Lord will give a reply shortly. As for the specifics, we'll have to wait for the Demon Lord to say it. Our words won't make any difference."
He was overjoyed that he could still spread the word about this matter without even meeting the Demon Lord. He didn't need to think about anything else and could go back to cultivate. He was preparing to break through to the eighth level of the Golden Core stage.
Just as he was about to leave, a white light flashed, and the Demon Lord appeared before them. The two of them quickly bowed to the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord ignored the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor and went directly to Gu Yuchuan: "Have you received the guidance of the Dragon Walker?"
Gu Yuchuan nodded. He could see that the Demon Lord's expression was extremely bad. The Demon Lord even cursed, "I, a high-grade exotic beast, a four-clawed dragon, have not received any guidance on how to walk the dragon path for so many years. You have only just advanced to a mid-grade exotic beast and you already have guidance. This is really unfair. It seems that the dragon bloodline in your body is even more noble. Don't worry, I will fully support you in this matter. Not for any other reason than to give me some experience so that when I walk the dragon path in the future, I won't be as clueless as you are."
He was overjoyed. With the support of a demon lord, the matter was practically half accomplished, and at least there was no danger.
But the Demon Lord continued, "However, I need to give you a lot of support for this matter. You can't just leave without paying any price. I need the method to build the Yun Dynasty. I know what rewards there will be after the dragon traversal. I am also a dragon, and what I ask for is not much. In the future, when you take your people away from my Yunhai Marsh, I will let them go. I can also let you continue to operate your market in Yunhai Marsh. You should consider it carefully."
With such good terms, there's no need to hesitate. Even if he asked for more, he would agree.
