Chapter 435: Winning people's hearts and playing hard to get

The Bull Demon King had already beautifully concealed himself, after all, he had already led the way, and the rest should have nothing to do with him. He didn't expect that he could still be involved in the end.

'No, what I, Old Bull, said just now was just to lick you and save my life. How can you take it seriously?'

The Bull Demon King slandered in his heart, but at this time, he could only bite the bullet and stand in line, and could only stand on King Qingyuan's side, because he had pitted so many people along the way, and the reason why he was not beaten was all because of King Qingyuan. If he turned against him at this time, his end would probably become very miserable.

So, he glared with his bull eyes, his nose made a muffled sound, and he said in a muffled voice:

"What the lord said is right, I, Old Bull, am the master of this ancient bronze hall, and I, Old Bull, am willing to hand over all the treasures in this ancient bronze hall to this lord!"

Seeing the Bull Demon King being so sensible, King Qingyuan was even more satisfied with him, and decided in his heart that when he returned to the upper realm, he would definitely bring this wild bull with him, not for anything else, even in the upper realm, among his followers, there was no one more sensible than this bull. It is estimated that with a little training, he can become a satisfactory right-hand man.

As for the others, they glared at the Bull Demon King, because in their opinion, they are upper realm beings arguing, and ants from the sin domain like the Bull Demon King are not qualified to speak, but he dared to risk the world's disapproval to speak, which is undoubtedly provoking their status.

Someone couldn't help but grab towards the Bull Demon King, and a strong pressure erupted from his palm, overwhelmingly, to directly smash the Bull Demon King into meat paste.

"Boom!"

King Qingyuan made a move, and a purple glow swept across, colliding with that person's palm.

Bang!

With a loud noise, the person flew out directly, his palm and arm were shattered, and he fell to the ground, his aura suddenly became weak. The person fell to the ground, staring with his eyes, looking at King Qingyuan in disbelief, and did not expect that King Qingyuan would attack him, or for a dead bull.

The Bull Demon King also looked at King Qingyuan in disbelief. He did not expect that the other party would really protect him. At the moment when that person attacked him, he did not hold any hope at all, and was ready to run away.

The faces of the others changed suddenly, staring at King Qingyuan, both angry and afraid. What they were angry about was that King Qingyuan attacked his companion for a lower realm ant, and what they were afraid of was the combat power displayed by King Qingyuan. Although the strength of the person who just made the move was not the strongest, it was also above the middle level, but in King Qingyuan's hands, he could not last a single move. You must know that in everyone's impression, this King Qingyuan relied on the backing behind him to dare to act arbitrarily. He never thought that the combat power he possessed was also very terrifying, even stronger than several upper realm beings who also came from the Fifth Heaven Domain.

This is simply beyond imagination!

The reason why King Qingyuan chose to make a move at this time was to tell others that as long as they took refuge in him, even if their status was as humble as the Bull Demon King, he would still choose to protect them, let alone the others, listen to the applause!

"If anyone dares to attack my subordinates again, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless!"

King Qingyuan unreservedly stood up for the Bull Demon King, pulled the Bull Demon King behind him, and glared at the others.

When everyone heard these words, they all angrily denounced:

"Brother Qing, although we respect you, you shouldn't be so arrogant, at least you shouldn't stand up for a sin domain creature!"

"What is his status, what is our status, King Qingyuan, are you going to betray us? Are you going to join the sin domain?"

"If you dare to join the sin domain, not to mention us, even the noble behind you will not spare you, and there will be no place for you in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!"

Someone was not afraid of King Qingyuan, and was frantically putting labels on King Qingyuan, trying to stir up trouble and arouse public anger, so as to deal with King Qingyuan together.

Huang Wu Jiu actually wanted to stir up the muddy water, but she knew in her heart that this King Qingyuan had long disliked her, but had been holding back. The first bird to be shot, she couldn't stand out at this time, so as not to be found an excuse by this King Qingyuan and take the opportunity to solve her.

She must stabilize first. As long as the son arrives, then this King Qingyuan is the grasshopper after autumn and won't be able to jump for long.

And just as Huang Wu Jiu thought, King Qingyuan's eyes swept over everyone, and his eyes stayed on her for a while. Seeing that even her subordinates did not speak, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, and then he said plausibly:

"Don't put any big hats on me, my followers, as long as I can move, no one else, even if they move a hair, can't!"

King Qingyuan's words were very domineering and protective, which made his followers very moved. The Bull Demon King also pretended to have red eyes, which can be said to be a true expression of emotion, just short of really shedding tears. Of course, this was all pretended by him. In fact, he would not believe a word of what King Qingyuan said. The essence of why the other party said this was still to win people's hearts.

It's a pity that the Bull Demon King is not a human, but a bull, and a bull with a bad reputation and no bottom line. Therefore, no matter what King Qingyuan said, the Bull Demon King became more and more determined that he must trick him hard later, otherwise he would be sorry for his current hard performance.

"Okay, Brother Qing, in fact, you and I both know very well that you just want to take the initiative in order to obtain more benefits. Tell me, what are your conditions?"

An upper realm creature who had been silent stood up and said to King Qingyuan.

He had been cooperating with King Qingyuan from the beginning and also came from the Fifth Heaven Domain. However, because he had no followers around him and was also withdrawn, he had little say in the team and was similar to an edge person, but his strength should not be underestimated. He has the qualifications to talk to King Qingyuan on an equal footing.

When the others heard this, they patted their heads and suddenly reacted. This King Qingyuan was not really trying to protect his shortcomings, but just wanted to squeeze out the remaining value of this dead bull in order to gain more initiative in the game with them.

King Qingyuan did not deny it: "Actually, it's very simple. I take 30% of the treasures inside, and you can divide the remaining 70% yourself!"

As he spoke, he took out the mysterious bamboo stick. The bamboo stick was only three feet long, but it had great power. Many beautiful runes were carved on the bamboo, and these runes were very mysterious, emitting an ancient and mysterious light, as if the heavens and stars were projected on the bamboo stick. Every time it was swung, it could cause the earth to tremble, causing inexplicable palpitations.

This was a naked threat, showing everyone that if the adults did not agree with his idea, then he would overturn the table!

When King Qingyuan took out the bamboo stick, many people changed their colors. These people had more or less seen the power of this bamboo stick. No matter how special your physique is, or what kind of battle clothes made of divine gold you wear, or even the top demon clan with a heaven-defying physical body, if you are gently touched by this bamboo stick, all defensive means will lose their effect and you can only become a lamb to be slaughtered, which is very terrible.

"Brother Qing, why can't we talk nicely? Why do you have to take out the treasure bestowed by the noble to scare us?"

"We are all our own people and should unite and cooperate sincerely. It is best not to use knives and guns!"

"Since King Qingyuan, you want 30%, then I, on behalf of myself, agree with your opinion!"

Someone stood up as a rational person and reconciled both sides.

Those who had different opinions on King Qingyuan originally did not dare to say more when they saw King Qingyuan took out the truth, and could only bow their heads for the time being.

King Qingyuan originally wanted more, but because there were too many people, he was worried about inequality rather than scarcity. If he asked for more than 50%, it is estimated that many people here would be hostile to him. Although he had a bamboo stick in his hand and was invincible, he was afraid of being attacked by the group. There were still a few people present who made him very afraid. These people had been hiding their strength, and he had specially observed the expressions of these people. When he took out the bamboo stick, these people were not panicked at all. This shows that they must also have trump cards in their hands, but they are not as good as the truth in his hands, so they are unwilling to conflict with him.

As someone took the lead in agreeing, the remaining people, no matter how unwilling they were in their hearts, also knew that they could not twist their arms over their thighs, and expressed their approval one after another. That is, at this time, six people stood up and stated that they also wanted to occupy 10% exclusively, and showed their truths respectively.

The remaining people were dissatisfied with this but felt helpless. After all, who made them have no truth in their hands? Otherwise, they could also forcefully occupy 10% without fear of others' coveting.

As everyone discussed how to divide the remaining benefits, King Qingyuan's subordinate who was blocking the door finally gave way. As soon as he gave way, someone couldn't wait to break in, and the remaining people were unwilling to fall behind and squeezed in after him.

King Qingyuan was not so anxious, because no matter what opportunities existed inside, 30% belonged to him. He explained a few words to his subordinates and left two people in place to stay with the Bull Demon King, on the one hand to supervise, and on the other hand to protect them.

He glanced at the Bull Demon King, his face was very kind, and he didn't say much. He instructed his followers to enter the ancient temple. Soon, almost everyone entered the ancient bronze hall, leaving only a few scattered people to stay behind.

The Bull Demon King quietly looked around, estimating the best escape route in his mind, waiting for an opportunity to escape from here. During this period of time, he must think of a way to escape. He had a hunch that at most, after a while, a tragic change would definitely occur in the ancient temple. At that time, if those people escaped, they would definitely vent their anger on his head, and even King Qingyuan would have murderous intent towards him.

So he can't stay here for long and must run away as soon as possible!

Just as he was thinking hard, not far from him, a follower of King Qingyuan walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder, and took the lead in expressing his goodwill, saying:

"This Brother Bull, my master is very optimistic about you. It is estimated that he will definitely take you to the upper realm at that time. You must know that the end of ordinary people ascending to the upper realm is very miserable. They are generally caught by those small forces to be miners. Tsk tsk, you are really lucky!"

Another follower also said enviously at this time:

"Brother Bull's good luck is one aspect, the most important thing is that Brother Bull knows how to please the master, otherwise the master would not have stood up for Brother Bull just now!"

When the Bull Demon King heard this, he knew that this Bull Demon King's realm in flattering was far higher than them, and had even reached the point of subtle influence. He could say a word to the heart of the people. They were sure that if this bull was really taken back to the upper realm by the master, it is estimated that it would not take long before he could become the master's most trusted servant. By that time, they would have to rely on this bull. This is almost foreseeable.

So, the two followers looked at each other, smiled heartily at the Bull Demon King, and said:

"What big brother or not, we are all our own brothers, no need to be so humble!"

"Although you are from the sin domain, we don't pay attention to status, don't be too polite with us!"

These two followers were also clever and knew that befriending the Bull Demon King at this time would definitely not be bad for the future. If it was the kind of person who was narrow-minded, looked down on the Bull Demon King's origin, and tried to tease the Bull Demon King, then in the future, when the Bull Demon King became prosperous, he would definitely be tripped up by the other party.

"The two big brothers treat me like this, it really makes me, Old Bull, feel uneasy, feel uneasy!"

The Bull Demon King still put himself in a lower position, his attitude was very humble, he respected the two followers very much, and at the same time his mind was spinning wildly, how could he kill these two followers without attracting their suspicion, so as to escape.

Suddenly, he glanced at the corner of his eye and saw that a mark appeared somewhere. This mark was a bull horn pattern. Because it was drawn very hidden, it was difficult to notice this pattern unless you looked closely.

This bull horn pattern was the secret code that he and the Flat Heaven Taoist set up in advance before they fled separately. Once this secret code appeared, it meant that he was nearby.

'Old Taoist, you are really loyal, I, Old Bull, will never trick you again!'

The Bull Demon King was moved to tears. It was true that adversity reveals true love. No matter how incompatible he was with the Old Taoist on weekdays, when it came to a critical moment, the two could still put aside their past grievances and redeem each other, even at great risk.

In addition to being moved, the Bull Demon King thought in his heart, how can he escape in the direction indicated by the bull horn pattern without arousing the suspicion of these two people?

Before long, he thought of an excellent way. He waved to the two of them, and the two of them leaned in front of him with puzzled faces.

The Bull Demon King was particularly quiet, as if he was afraid of being heard by others:

"Two big brothers, in addition to this ancient bronze hall, I, Old Bull, also know that there is a place where there may be treasures, but because I, Old Bull, are too weak, I have never dared to explore it before, but the two big brothers are different, you are all real immortals, I wonder if you are willing to go with Old Bull to get that treasure?"

When the two followers heard this, their eyes flickered, and one of them asked: "Why didn't you tell the master when the master was here?"

The other person also had the same question: "Yes, Brother Bull, why didn't you tell the master?"

The Bull Demon King had already prepared a draft for this in his mind: "There were so many people at the time, how could I tell the master? If I said it, wouldn't the others have to divide it up again? Why is that? I don't want to share the treasures I, Old Bull, discovered with others!"

When the two followers heard this, although they didn't say anything, they held a half-believing attitude towards the Bull Demon King's words.

"Forget it, if you don't want to go, then forget it. I, Old Bull, will still wait for the master to come out and secretly tell him!" The Bull Demon King waved his hand, looking like he didn't care if they went or not.

Seeing Bull Demon King's attitude, the two followers' expressions immediately changed, and they hurriedly said:

"Don't do that, Brother Bull, we didn't say we weren't going. Tell us first, what's the situation there, where is it, and how dangerous is it exactly?"

"How could it not be dangerous? Didn't you see it along the way just now? Wherever there are treasures, there are powerful creatures guarding them. Forget it, let's not go. If we don't get the treasure and lose our lives there, it's not worth it!"

Bull Demon King shook his head and said.
