The snake army envoy announced loudly, "Because the new commander Yang Feilong defeated the third lord Blood Pattern Mad Lion in a fight to the death, Yang Feilong will become the new third lord of Wan Shan County!"
"Congratulations to Lord Yang! Congratulations to Lord Yang!"
"Lord Yang is mighty and domineering!"
"......"
Immediately, a group of demons cheered loudly.
As for Spotted War Tiger, who was below the arena, his face was filled with dejection.
At this moment, Qing Luan said hypocritically, "Spotted War Tiger, I now appoint you as the commander of Wan Shan County. Of course, you can refuse."
After all, the newly appointed commander of Wan Shan County, Yang Feilong, had now become the third lord of Wan Shan County. With the great lord absent, she could make the appointment directly!
"I refuse." Spotted War Tiger shook his head. He feared that if he stayed in Wan Shan County, he would eventually be killed by the demon girl Qing Luan, and no one would come to his aid. Then, he looked at the snake army elder and said, "Elder Snake Army, can I defect to you?"
"En?" The snake army elder raised his eyebrows.
Although Spotted War Tiger was not very intelligent, it seemed easy to control such a person as a subordinate. After thinking for a moment, he agreed, "Sure, you can follow me! Remember, don't think of taking revenge on Lord Qing Luan just because I'm protecting you. Otherwise, I don't mind killing you!"
He couldn't refuse a subordinate who was not very intelligent but was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Moreover, while Spotted War Tiger was not Qing Luan's match, it was obvious to anyone with eyes that Qing Luan's strength was superior!
"Thank you, Elder Snake Army!" Spotted War Tiger said with joy, nodding repeatedly. Although he had hoped the snake army elder would stand up for him, the elder had stated it directly, so he suppressed the thought that had just arisen and was immediately extinguished.
When Qing Luan saw Spotted War Tiger defecting to the snake army, her heart sank slightly. Wasn't this guy always unintelligent? He had actually found the optimal solution. Since Spotted War Tiger had defected to the envoy snake army, she naturally couldn't kill him anymore!
She hoped the envoy snake army would become her enemy. Otherwise, she wouldn't mind killing him!
Even facing the snake army elder, who was at the perfected Nascent Soul realm, Lord Qing Luan was not afraid at all. This was because she hadn't used her full strength when she crushed Spotted War Tiger earlier, and she hadn't even used her top-grade spiritual artifact. Once she used it, she was confident she could kill even the snake army elder!
This was because Qing Luan's bloodline suppressed most snake demons. Although the suppression effect was not as pronounced due to the snake army elder's higher cultivation, it definitely had an impact!
The snake army elder clearly had no intention of standing up for Spotted War Tiger. If the latter wanted him to avenge him, humph, he would simply forgo having such a subordinate. After all, someone who immediately wanted him to take revenge after just following him was clearly treating him as a tool!
"I'll give you a day to recover. Tomorrow, I will return to the provincial capital through the teleportation array," the snake army elder said to Spotted War Tiger.
"Yes!" Spotted War Tiger replied.
Then, the snake army elder used the sound transmission stone to inform the various commanders of Wan Shan County about the intelligence of the new second and third lords of Wan Shan County.
He instructed all county commanders, if they had no urgent matters, to send at least a deputy commander or commander to the county capital for a meeting!
Envoys had great authority, at least more than many lords. They possessed the sound transmission imprints, meaning contact information, of every commander or deputy commander!
Of course, the three lords of each county also had them!
The sound transmission stone of Lord Ling Yuan of Wan Shan County Capital was destroyed when he self-destructed, which was why the snake army elder couldn't contact him earlier.
Because Spotted War Tiger was defeated in the challenge, the token and sound transmission stone of the second lord of Wan Shan County had to be handed over to Lord Qing Luan. The identity token and sound transmission stone of Blood Pattern Mad Lion were now in Yang Feilong's hands, along with the storage ring left behind after his death. These were the spoils of victory for the winner of the fight to the death!
Normal challenges did not have such requirements.
...
In the garden pavilion.
Wine and dishes were laid out.
Yang Feilong and Qing Luan sat opposite each other. Besides the two of them, Tang Ya sat beside Yang Feilong, while Bu Gu Niao sat beside Qing Luan. En, today, Bu Gu Niao wore a white dress and looked like a demure young lady.
Of course, her beauty far surpassed that of a demure young lady, almost comparable to Tang Ya's. Some of his own women were not as beautiful in human form as Bu Gu Niao. For example, Xu Fei. En, after countless dual cultivation sessions with Yang Feilong, Xu Fei's rating was only ninety-two or ninety-three.
Bu Gu Niao and Tang Ya sat without speaking. Tang Ya's affection was all focused on Yang Feilong, and she would pour him wine and water from time to time. Bu Gu Niao served Qing Luan, but her clear, limpid eyes would occasionally glance at Yang Feilong. She was full of curiosity about this human youth. In her heart, humans were all very weak. This human was not only cunning and treacherous but also possessed powerful combat strength. Furthermore, he was very fond of women.
En, he once spent three days and three nights in dual cultivation with his women. From what she heard, many powerful demons wouldn't dare to do that, as they couldn't withstand it!
After all, what was lost was essence.
She didn't know that if it weren't for the powerful dual cultivation technique, Yang Feilong wouldn't have been able to endure such consumption!
"Lord Yang, tsk tsk, I never expected your strength to be so great!" Lord Qing Luan said, looking at Yang Feilong. Honestly, she had previously only thought Yang Feilong was an ordinary cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and humans in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm generally had weaker combat power, especially compared to top-tier bloodline demons.
But in her opinion, Yang Feilong's cultivation level should not have reached the Nascent Soul realm yet, yet his strength was so great!
"There are many things you haven't expected yet. For example, not only am I strong, but I'm also big!" Yang Feilong winked and said.
"Pfft!" Hearing her man's lewd words, Tang Ya, who was beside him, blushed and couldn't help but pinch Yang Feilong.
"Shameless!" Lord Qing Luan also cursed, a blush appearing on her perfect face. "I'm praising you, and you're spouting nonsense."
Bu Gu Niao's delicate face also turned red, and she silently thought to herself, this man was good in every way, but sometimes he just liked to speak lewdly, which greatly contrasted with his elegant and handsome image. En, if Yang Feilong knew what she was thinking, he would definitely tell her, "Men are not bad, women don't love them." He wasn't a gentleman, so who was he pretending to be reserved for?
En, with more women and more experiences, the pure youth of the past had now lost his purity and become a seasoned driver with countless experiences!
"I just feel that your praise is not comprehensive enough. Cough, I'm specifically supplementing it for you!" Yang Feilong said, his face not blushing and his heart not skipping a beat.
"Utterly shameless!" Lord Qing Luan ground her teeth.
"Thank you for the compliment!" Yang Feilong leisurely took a sip of wine. He had to admit that this aged, fine wine was truly flavorful with every sip. This wine was a leftover from Flame King's storage ring.
Qing Luan was helpless against the shameless Yang Feilong. She couldn't lower herself to compete with this old driver, Yang Feilong, in a race. Besides, she couldn't win!
He was a veteran driver with extensive experience, while she was merely a theoretical driver with rich theoretical knowledge but no practical experience. If she tried to drive on the road, she would definitely get caught!
"By the way, after we meet the various commanders of Wan Shan County and confirm their identities, we will set off for the provincial capital. When do you plan to have your woman leave the demon world? Or do you plan to keep her with you all the time?" Qing Luan asked.
Hearing Qing Luan's words, Tang Ya bit her lip and looked at Yang Feilong with reluctance. She really didn't want to go back so soon!
"We'll discuss it when we're about to leave for the provincial capital," Yang Feilong said after thinking for a moment. Now that his identity was public, there was no longer a need to send Tang Ya back to the mortal world.
"En, I understand! I won't disturb your romantic time," Qing Luan nodded and said no more. She stood up and said, "You two have a good chat."
Saying so, she left with Bu Gu Niao.
