Chapter 0071 – Working With Everyone – Absolute Returns

“Jealous? What am I jealous of?” I asked in mock confusion.

“Hmph! You’re less pretentious! I only obtained a few treasures from Sect Leader Windsky, and you’re being so gloomy.” The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon said without a trace of anger, “I’m telling you, I’m doing this to make you brat understand that even if you send me more treasures, my position, is not something that others can easily replace!”

“Yes, yes, yes, senior’s lesson.” I smiled and nodded.

“Alright, don’t be poor, you brat, old me still has things to do, so I’ll leave first.” The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon said, and was about to turn around and leave.

Just then, a henchman hurriedly came to report, “Enlighten Sect Master, One Flower Sword Venerable is seeking an audience.”

“One Flower Sword Venerable?” The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon froze at the words, “What is she doing here? Could it be that it’s here to find you?”

“Senior is joking, how could a junior have such a great face that she could make the One Flower Sword Venerable personally pay a visit to her door?” I smiled and shook my head, “I think that she should have nothing to do and have something important to discuss with senior.”

The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon hesitated for a moment before finally saying, “That’s just it, I’d better evade for a while. You take your time chatting with her.”

“Why is senior so outgoing?” I stopped him and said with a smile, “Since senior is here, let’s listen together. Perhaps, the One Flower Sword Venerable has come here because he has something that the two of us need to discuss together.”

The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon was about to say something else when the One Flower Sword Venerable had already walked in.

Seeing that the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon was also there, the One Flower Sword Venerable obviously froze for a moment, then frowned and asked, “You’re also there? Could it be that you deliberately arranged this?”

I smiled and shook my head, explaining, “Elder has misunderstood, how could the late generation have such a skill to calculate that the two of you would be here at the same time today? Both of you came uninvited, and the late generation was also caught off guard.” Saying this, I pointed to the sky above my head, “Perhaps, this is the will of heaven.”

Although I didn’t say it explicitly, both the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon and the One Flower Sword Venerable understood what I meant.

Yeah, it might really be providence. I was worried about how to set the two of them up, but I didn’t expect them to show up here unannounced. It seems that even God is helping us.

“Alright, the two of you shouldn’t stand, please take a seat.” I greeted the two of them and sat down, then asked, “I don’t know what the One Flower Sword Venerable is calling for when he came here today?”

“I came here to tell you something.” The One Flower Sword Venerable opened the door, “The Demon Buddha Broussonetia has come to me, hoping that I can support his eldest disciple, Liang Guan, to become the next Demon Venerable.”

Choosing a new Demon Vassal has always been an internal matter for the eight Demon Vassals. If the previous Demon Sovereign did not designate a successor, the remaining Demon Sovereigns would elect a new Demon Sovereign. In other words, in order to become the new Demon Exalt, one must obtain the support of at least half of the Demon Exalted.

“Earlier, you said that you hoped I could support your side’s candidate, seeing as you’re my friend from the tournament.” Sword Honored One Flower looked at me and said slowly.

“Indeed.” I nodded.

The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon on the side was confused, “A martial encounter? What’s going on here?”

“It’s a long story ……,” I was about to explain, but the One Flower Sword Honored One jumped ahead:

“The matter is none of your business.”

“You ……,” the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon sniffed, and instantly became furious, but there was nothing he could do.

One Flower Sword Venerable stopped paying attention to him and turned his head to me, asking, “Who do you plan to support?”

“I’m with Green Fairy.” I said without hesitation.

“I knew you would say that.” The One Flower Sword Venerable seemed to have anticipated this, “I also support Qing Xian. I won’t agree to the Demon Buddha’s request.”

Devil Buddha Broussonetia has a lofty position among the Eight Devil Dignitaries, and refusing his request would require no small amount of pressure. The One Flower Sword Venerable, however, chose to support me without hesitation, a friendship that cannot be described as unimportant.

Furthermore, the fact that she purposely said this matter in front of the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon was obviously to help me as well. After all, if you want Qing Xian to become the new Demon Demon, the power of just the two of us isn’t enough.

“Thank you, Senpai!” I said gratefully.

“Between you and me, there is no need to be so polite.” The One Flower Sword Venerable smiled faintly, then his words changed, “However, even if you add my vote, there are only two votes. You still need to enlist the support of the other demonic djinn before you can do so.”

“Senior is right.” I nodded, then looked at the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon and said with a straight face, “In this matter, we still need senior’s help!”

“If that girl Qing Xian becomes a Demon Lord, what good will it do us?” Although the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon was unforgiving with his mouth, his tone had obviously softened a lot.

“Senior, don’t joke around.” I said with a smile, “Isn’t the benefits of the late generation your benefits?”

“Hmph! You kid cut the crap!” Although the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon said this on his lips, a few smiles appeared on his face.

Seeing this, One Flower Sword Venerable also couldn’t help but say, “You kid can talk, no wonder you were able to persuade that old guy Simon the Snow Blower to take you as his disciple.”

“Elder is flattered.” I said modestly.

“Alright, back to the topic.” The One Flower Sword Venerable put away his smile and said with a straight face, “I will try my best to convince the other Devil Fathers to support the Green Immortal. However, the Demon Buddha side won’t sit back and wait, so you should also prepare early.”

“Later generation understands.” I nodded, already having a plan in mind.

“Since that’s the case, I’ll take my leave first.” With that, the One Flower Sword Venerable said, he got up and prepared to leave.

“I’ll see Elder off.” I got up to see them off.

“No need, you still have things to do, so don’t worry about me.” One Flower Sword Venerable waved his hand and walked straight out of the study.

Just as she left, the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon also stood up and said, “I should leave as well.”

“Won’t you sit down for a while longer, senior?” I retained.

“No, I still have things to do.” The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon said, and was about to turn around and leave.

“Senior ……,” I called out to him, wanting to speak.

“You brat, just say whatever else you have to say, what’s it like to stammer!” The Blood Heavenly Dao Demon said without a trace of anger.

“Elder, do you think …… One Flower Sword Honored She ……” I hesitated for a moment, but still asked the doubt in my heart, “Why does she want to help me so much? “

When the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon heard this, he gave me a deep look and said meaningfully, “There are some things that you just understand in your heart and don’t need to say them.”

When he finished speaking, he didn’t wait for me to ask any more questions, so he turned around and left the study.

I looked at his departing back, my mind racing with thoughts.

The help that One Flower Sword Honored One has given me has gone beyond the realm of an ordinary friend. Could it be that she really favored me just because of that match?

I shook my head and put the distractions behind me.

Now, the most important thing is to act as soon as possible to get more support for Qing Xian!

I turned back to my desk, spread out a sheet of letterhead, and began to write furiously.

I know that a new storm is about to sweep through the entire Devil’s Way!
