Chapter 0036 – I Have Been Loyal – Absolute Return
by GreatBrother(위대한 다오 형제)What’s more, this time, those who nominated Zhang Hu were also the Blood Sky Blade Demon and One Flower Sword Venerable who had always been at odds.
These two people, one is the left protector of the devil religion, and one is the right protector of the devil religion, both are powerful figures in the devil religion, and they are usually incompatible with each other, and there is a constant battle between the public and the private.
Now, these two had joined forces to nominate Zhang Hu as the Demon Monarch, how could this not be shocking?
For a time, the entire Demon Sect exploded, and everyone was talking and speculating about the reason behind this.
Even within the Demon Sect’s main altar, the Heavenly Demon Hall, Sect Master Sword Wuxin and Military Master Sima Ming were talking about this matter.
“I really didn’t expect that he would actually convince Sword Exalt.” Sima Ming spoke with a hint of surprise.
“He should have capitalized on the conflict between the two.” Jian Wuxin said indifferently.
“Everyone knows that the two of them don’t get along, but trying to capitalize on their conflict is not an easy task.” Sima Ming said.
Whether it was the Blood Sky Blade Demon or the One Flower Sword Venerable, neither of them were easy to deal with. If one wanted to utilize their conflicts, if one was not careful, one would draw fire and bring about one’s own demise.
“How about this person, Zhang Hu?” Jian Wu Xin asked.
“Outstanding ability and loyalty, but his character is too straightforward and not good at political struggles.” Sima Ming replied truthfully.
“He was smart to choose Zhang Hu.” Jian Wuxin said indifferently.
“From the very beginning, he never wanted to cultivate Zhang Hu.” Sima Ming said.
“Oh? How?” Jian Wuxin asked with interest.
“He chose Zhang Hu just to pull him in and utilize him. What he really wants is the power behind the Demon Monarch.” Sima Ming hit the nail on the head.
“He is quite self-aware.” Jian Wuxin smiled faintly and said, “He knows very well that with his current strength, he is not strong enough to control the power that is the Demon Monarch. Therefore, he chose to support a puppet, a puppet that is loyal to him.”
“He’s smarter and more terrifying than we thought.” Sima Ming said in a grave tone.
Jian Wuxin didn’t say anything, just quietly looked into the distance, an inexplicable light flickering in his eyes.
“What do you think about the matter of the Demon Monarch?” After a while, Jian Wuxin asked.
“Since the two of them have already teamed up to nominate, then just go with the flow and agree to them.” Jian Wuxin said indifferently.
“We always have to give them some face.”
“Yes.” Sima Ming bowed and answered.
He knew that the Bishop had made his decision.
……
“What virtue and ability does my subordinate have, to be able to gain such honor from your lordship, my subordinate is really ……” Zhang Hu was so excited that he was incoherent after learning that he had been appointed as the Demon Monarch, he didn’t know what to say to be good.
“Brother Zhang doesn’t have to be so polite, between you and me, there’s no need to be so outgoing.” I smiled and said, “The reason why I would recommend you is because I believe in your abilities, and I also believe in your character. I believe that you will definitely be able to fulfill the position of Demon Monarch and contribute to the Demon Sect.”
“My subordinate will definitely do my best to live up to Your Excellency’s high expectations!” Zhang Hu knelt on one knee and said in a firm tone.
“Get up.” I helped him up, patted his shoulder, and said, “I know that you’re a person who values love and justice. Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for you. The reason why I will let you serve as a Demon Monarch is just that I hope you can do me a favor.”
“Please speak, my lord, my subordinate will die by all means!” Zhang Hu said without hesitation.
“I need your power to help me become the next Demon Sect Master!” I looked him straight in the eyes and said word for word.
When Zhang Hu heard this, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
“My subordinate is willing to follow Your Excellency and go through fire and water without hesitation!” He knelt on one knee and said in a firm tone.
I laughed and helped him up and said, “Good buddy!”
The reason why I chose Zhang Hu was not only because of his outstanding ability and loyalty, but also for a more important reason.
That is, he is a man of great affection.
I know that a man like him, once he identifies with someone, he will be loyal to them until death.
And I, for one, need just such a person, who can be trusted absolutely.
“I want to become someone like you!” Zhang Hu suddenly said, his tone filled with admiration and yearning.
“Oh? What kind of person am I?” I asked with interest.
“You are like a high mountain, a mountain that can never be overcome! As long as I follow your side, I feel that no matter what difficulties I encounter, I will be able to overcome them.” Zhang Hu said in an excited tone.
“If those self-proclaimed righteous people heard these words of yours, they would only laugh their heads off.” I shook my head with a smile and said, “However, I like this abject sincerity of yours.”
“I am not a good person, much less a savior. I’m just doing whatever it takes to get what I want.” I said lightly.
“I believe that everything you do is for the good of the Demon Sect.” Zhang Hu said in a firm tone.
“I hope so.” I smiled and didn’t say anything more.
“In the future, the Demon Monarch’s lineage, will be in your hands.” I patted his shoulder and said in a serious tone.
“My subordinate will live up to your honor’s high expectations!” Zhang Hu knelt on one knee and said in a firm tone.
I smiled and nodded, confidence and anticipation in my eyes.
My plan, I knew, was halfway there.
