Chapter 1688: Chapter 121: Shouzhe Has Been Waiting for the Little Demon Sovereign for a Long Time (Asking for Monthly Tickets)_5
Who would have expected.
When Chao Guangyuan entered, he gave no face to Emperor Ziāan. He casually cupped his hands, his attitude nonchalant and uninhibited, and spoke without a hint of politeness: āSuch a trivial Dongqian, such a small Emperor Ziāan, dares to put on such airs, not even regarding our Red Moon Demon Dynasty.ā
With these words, the faces of the court officials immediately changed.
Wang Shizhao stepped forward at once and reprimanded coldly: āEnvoy Chao, your words are excessively arrogant. Our Da Qian is a grand empire and has no subordinate or vassal relationship with your dynasty. You have been sent to Da Qian on a mission, and we shall naturally treat you with courtesy. However, whether to see you or not, our Emperor has his own discretion, and he will not tolerate your presumptuousness here!ā
Chao Guangyuan sneered, his hands folded behind his back, his face full of arrogance and disdain: āI do not wish to argue with someone as insignificant as you. This time, I have come under the orders of the Little Demon Sovereign to deliver a message to Emperor Ziāan.ā
He paused for a moment, then lifted his gaze to sweep over the faces of the slightly changed expressions of everyone in the hall, the arrogance on his face becoming even more evident: āAs long as you hand over the Demonic Dynasty traitor Shadow Snake Demonic Princess and severely punish the Fifth Grade Prominent Families Wang family who were incited by Dongqian, our Little Demon Sovereign will be magnanimous and overlook your Dongqianās mistakes. Otherwiseā¦ humph humph~~ā
Such arrogance!
The group of courtiers immediately became agitated, and many were instantly filled with righteous indignation, ready to jump up and curse Chao Guangyuan for his arrogance and insolence.
However, before they could speak, Emperor Ziāan raised a hand to quell their words, then lowered his gaze to look at Chao Guangyuan, and said in a calm voice: āIāll give you a word: āGet outā!ā
āWhat?ā
Chao Guangyuan was incredulous.
A mere emperor of a small nation dared to disregard the Little Demon Sovereign so?
āDo you not understand human speech?ā Wang Shizhao also spoke coldly, āNot to mention that your Little Demon Sovereign hasnāt even become a Demon Lord yet, even if he truly becomes a Demon Lord, so what? Since ancient times, Immortals and Demons have never coexisted. He can flaunt his power in the Demonic Dynasty all he wants, but does he also wish to dictate our Immortal Dynastyās affairs?ā
āGuards! Expel him immediately. Should he dare linger within the borders of our Da Qian Realm, treat it as espionage.ā Wang Shizhao ordered.
āYes!ā
The hall guards responded thunderously, then stepped forward to escort Chao Guangyuan out.
In that moment, the expression on Chao Guangyuanās face could not have been more vivid.
But at that moment, he dared not be arrogant anymore.
He dared to be arrogant before, relying on the reputation of the Little Demon Sovereign. But truly speaking of strength, he was just a Godsend Realm Cultivation, and if Da Qian truly decided to deal with him ruthlessly, he absolutely wouldnāt be able to leave this hall.
However, though this action was invigorating, some court officials expressed concern. After all, that Little Demon Sovereign had a fierce reputation and was indeed a troublesome character to provoke.
āRest assured, everyone, if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up. We just need to carefully manage Da Qian, and if truly necessary, we can still seek aid from the Immortal Dynasty, canāt we?ā Emperor Ziāan dismissed unconcernedly with a wave of his hand, āCourt dismissed!ā
āCourt dismissed~ā
The sharp voice of the eunuch once again echoed through the hall.
Soon, the court officials gradually dispersed.
But the storm caused by this matter was far from over.

Changning Wang Clan.
In the small courtyard of Wang Shouzhe, who was implied to be the ātall oneā by Emperor Ziāan, he was nonchalantly drinking Immortal Tea while examining secret correspondence letters.
Both letters were important.
One letter naturally described the scene not long ago in the courtāa detailed account of how the Demonic Dynasty envoy was rebuked and expelled by Emperor Ziāan.
The other letter was even more crucial.
This corresponded letter, sealed with a delicately charming plum blossom, had passed through countless secret channels before finally reaching Wang Shouzheās hands.
Of course, critical intelligence is never kept to just one letter. To prevent loss or failed delivery, identical intelligence is prepared in multiples, each reaching him through various channels.
Under normal circumstances, Wang Shouzhe would receive many copies of the same intelligence.
This was the first to arrive.
The contents were clear and straightforward.
The Little Demon Sovereignā¦ he has finally come out of seclusion.
After reading it, Wang Shouzheās expression remained mostly unchanged, continuing to sip his tea calmly.
No help for that.
Since he decided to co-opt Shadow Snake Demonic Princessās lineage, he had already begun to prepare against possible actions and retaliations from the Little Demon Sovereign.
Yet, no matter the extensive planning of Wang Shouzhe, he hadnāt anticipated the Little Demon Sovereignās seclusion to last so long and his coming to be so lateā¦
Truly, even the wisest can err at times.
A miscalculation indeed~
