Yao Aotian was different from Yao Qing. The only loophole in Zhou Shu’s disguise as Yao Qing had been covered up by Ji Lutian.
As long as the real Yao Qing didn’t appear, no one would be able to see through him.
But Yao Aotian was not a homebody like Yao Qing. Yao Aotian had a wide circle of friends. Previously, he had changed his name because of what Zhou Shu said and had touched the threshold of the Demon King realm, becoming an influential figure among the Great Demons.
Demonic beasts had always been very combative. Just from what Zhou Shu saw, several Great Demons had already come to challenge Yao Aotian, wanting to break through by challenging him.
Yin Chengshan’s cultivation level was still far from the Great Demon realm. If he really fought with a Great Demon, he would be exposed immediately.
This was why Zhou Shu had come up with this ruse.
It was hard to say if it would work.
“Zhang San won’t stop assassinating you. Make use of this opportunity to transfer the demonic beast army under Yao Aotian to protect yourself,” Zhou Shu said casually. “I’ll find time to help you forge another connate divine weapon to increase your strength…”
Before Zhou Shu could help Yin Chengshan forge a connate weapon, someone came looking for him.
When Zhou Shu had forged the Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow, many Great Demons had seen it with their own eyes. At the time, he had tricked them into saying that he had forged the Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow to fish.
Zhou Shu didn’t expect the Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow to really catch a big fish!
“Demon King Hu Li, although I’ve learned some human forging techniques, I’m still far inferior to my father. Why don’t you go to him to forge a weapon?” Zhou Shu looked at Hu Li and glanced at the figure covered in a black robe behind him.
“I want to find Brother Ji too. Unfortunately, he and your mother have gone off somewhere to have fun. I can’t find them,” Hu Li said. “Nephew, you have inherited your father’s ability. This should be an easy task for you.
“I have no choice. Demon King Ao personally ordered the mission. Although I’m also a Demon King now, Demon King Ao took good care of me in the past, so I couldn’t refuse him.”
Hu Li was very tactful, but Zhou Shu saw the bruise at the corner of his eye. There was a high chance that Demon King Ao had beaten him up…
Speaking of which, Hu Li had indeed been a little jumpy recently. Before his advancement ceremony to become a Demon King was even held, he had already begun to search the world for heaven and earth treasures.
Some of the other Demon Kings might not care too much, but there were definitely some Demon Kings who would be unhappy.
It was only a matter of time before someone taught Hu Li a lesson.
Zhou Shu didn’t expect that the legendary number one Demon King of the Demon Realm would take action so quickly.
“Demon King Hu Li, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but my skills are really limited,” Zhou Shu said. “I’ve already spent all my energy helping you build the Demon King Palace. I don’t have time for anything else?”
“There’s not much to do at night for the Demon King Palace. Help me resolve this matter first. Nephew, help me, and I will remember your kindness.”
Hu Li whispered in Zhou Shu’s ear, “Just forge a weapon and send him away.”
As Demon King Hu Li spoke, he glanced at the black-robed figure with an unhappy expression.
The black-robed figure had been silent since he entered. Hu Li’s voice wasn’t that soft. He must have been able to hear it, but he still didn’t react at all.
Zhou Shu hesitated and continued, “I can only try. I’m not sure if it’ll work.”
Zhou Shu looked at the black-robed figure. “Sir, do you have any requirements for weapons?”
The black-robed figure seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog. Zhou Shu was unable to determine his cultivation.
“You’re Ji Lutian’s son. I want to know how much of his skills you’ve inherited,” the black-robed figure said, his voice hoarse and unpleasant, as if he had something stuck in his throat.
“Sir, you seem to have made a mistake.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “I’m not the one helping you. You’re the one asking me for help.
“If you doubt my strength, that’s fine. I don’t want to help you forge a weapon either. Please leave.”
For some reason, Zhou Shu didn’t like the aura of this black-robed figure. Moreover, he had been guiding demonic beasts to repel weapons. Now that a demonic beast who wanted to use a weapon appeared, Zhou Shu was already giving him face by not killing him on the spot.
Demon King Hu Li chuckled and gave Zhou Shu a thumbs up, not caring about the black-robed figure at all.
The black-robed figure was slightly stunned. He hadn’t expected Zhou Shu’s reaction to be so unyielding.
The black-robed figure was silent for a moment before saying, “I’ve misspoken. I have a secret forging formula. You just need to forge the weapon according to the secret forging formula.”
He took out a yellowed piece of parchment and handed it to Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu casually took it. Before looking at it, he said, “I can tell at a glance that you’re an amateur. It doesn’t matter if you have a secret forging formula. Forging skills are the most important thing when forging.
“We demonic beasts are not good at this. I only know a little about it. I can’t guarantee that it will work.”
