Chapter 516
: The destiny of the half-demon! Join the human race?
However, this person's words and actions were full of refusal. It was obvious that he was content with the status quo and did not want to take any more risks.
Upon hearing this, Hu Yi couldn't help but frown and his tone became gloomy.
"This is the current situation that we have created with great difficulty?"
"You mean the current situation? Do you mean the tribe is enslaved and killed for fun and eaten at any time?"
Half-demons are born with defects, and it is basically impossible for them to cultivate to a very high level. The peak of Yuandan is the end of their life.
At this level, one can only serve the demon clan and obey their orders all his life.
Hearing what Hu Yi said, the goat-bearded man frowned, a little dissatisfied, but still said: "Mr. Hu, you are also a half-demon, so you naturally know that in this sea area, only those with the bigger fists have the right to speak, not those with more people."
"What's more, the current situation is chaotic, and there are all kinds of people in the sea of monsters. How can we, at our level, have a chance to compete for the right to speak?"
"As for the situation you described, there is nothing we can do about it. After all, once someone buys them back, they are no longer our half-demons. It is their business how their master wants to deal with them. We cannot reach that far."
There was no emotion in the goateed man's square pupils, as if he was just telling a cruel fact.
Compared to powerful races that have difficulty in reproduction, the reproduction of half-demons is more like that of mortals. After so many years, the number of half-demons has become countless, and they have also developed some family-like forces, just like the fox people.
Not all members of the fox tribe that Hu Yi belongs to are pro-human. According to Hu Yi's previous level, he could barely take care of himself, but now, with the order and opportunity given by his master, he not only wants to unify the fox tribe, but also wants to get some half-demon tribes to stand on his side.
Afterwards, they headed towards the vast territory together.
"Patriarch Yang, you are the patriarch of the Sheep People. When ordinary Inner Dan Realm monsters see you, they will give you some respect. But what about the ordinary sheep people in your tribe?"
"My fox tribe still has the function of gathering intelligence, so our lives are more or less better. But once the sheep people are bought, they will only be slaughtered and eaten. They may even be sold on the street with their chests cut open like livestock without intelligence, and be abused at will."
"It's not just the Sheep People. Haven't the other tribe leaders here seen the tragic fate of their own people?"
He was a little resentful.
He was different from those clan leaders who hid in their clan territory all day long. He traveled on ships in the Chaos Demon Sea all day long. He saw too many scenes of half-demons being slaughtered, and even he himself was in danger many times. Finally, he had no choice but to move out of the Senhu clan to escape.
This made him extremely dissatisfied with the current situation of half-demons.
What Goatee said is true, weakness is the original sin.
But the situation of a half-demon shouldn't be like this.
There are also weak races among the demons, some even weaker than half-demons, but their living conditions are much better than those of half-demons.
After all, I'm used to it.
The demon race is accustomed to enslaving half-demons, making them do things for them, and also accustomed to eating them to fill their stomachs.
Half-demons are used to being enslaved by the demon clan, used to being servile, and used to seeing their own kind being killed and eaten. In the end, they can only say "I'm used to it."
After Hu Yi finished speaking, two of the clan leaders became interested.
"Hmph, I feel pretty good now."
A burly man snorted coldly.
"But have you ever thought about what if we fail?"
"At least we still have some status now. We have our own island and can trade with the demons. In my opinion, relying on our own wisdom to gain power and strengthen our race is the right way."
"Instead of taking advantage of the situation and starting a riot with the entire half-demon's status as a bet."
"Mr. Hu, I heard some news that you got some opportunities. We can understand that young people are too eager to get ahead of themselves, but no matter how many opportunities you get, you can never be a match for those demon kings. This is really too risky."
This burly man has horns on his head and red eyes.
He did not try to hide his emotions at all, looked very annoyed, and was about to turn around and leave.
There are many large and small islands scattered throughout the Chaos Demon Sea. In addition to cultivation resources, many of these islands also have things and inheritances left by dead monsters to their descendants. It is possible that Hu Yi got some opportunities there, and his heart swelled, and he wanted to do something big.
This is too risky and unnecessary for them.
Although those half-demons who were slaughtered wantonly were of the same lineage as them, they were not members of their family after all. What did their life or death have to do with them?
Goatbeard glanced at Hu Yi, then changed the subject and said, "Everyone, now the Senhu Demon King died at the hands of the great Jiang Taixuan, and the Senhu clan has fallen apart, and even their bloodline has been cut off."
"We should also seek new ways out and find new backers, so that we can survive in this chaotic situation."
"Let's discuss which demon king we should rely on."
These half-demon races were originally vassals of the Senhu clan and had a close relationship with them. Now that the Senhu clan is dead, they are gathering here to discuss another way out.
"I think the Eastern Horned Dragon Demon King is pretty good. I heard that he is quite kind to his subordinates. He is also in his prime and should have thousands of years of glory ahead of him."
A middle-aged woman with long ears spoke up and expressed her high respect for the Horned Dragon Demon King she mentioned.
The horned man interrupted her, his voice dull.
"I think the Black Turtle Demon King in the south is more suitable for our development. Besides, the Black Turtle clan is gentle by nature and will not be too harsh on us. If we surrender now, we may get some benefits."
Everyone started discussing this.
The goatee man stood up, smiled and said to everyone, "Everyone, I have a way here, I wonder if you are interested." The horned man was not used to his half-sentenced and deliberately mysterious way of speaking, so he waved his hand and said, "Old Yang, if you have something to say, just say it quickly. Who is the way you are talking about? Could it be the Thunder Dragon Demon King of Panhai City?"
Panhai City is located at the border of the Demon Realm Continent. It is an important transportation hub and a strategic military location that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Among them, the Thunder Dragon Demon King is a mid-stage Demon King with great strength. He dominates the Chaos Demon Sea with great power.
That is indeed a good backing.
However, the Thunder Dragon Demon King has a very high standard, and it is unlikely that these half-demons will be in his eyes.
Perhaps only the fox people who control the intelligence network of the Chaos Demon Sea can be noticed by Panhai City and accepted under its command. However, their bloodline is thinner and their strength is slightly weaker than that of the fox people, so it is basically impossible for them to be noticed.
Thinking of this, these people all glanced at the fox man inconspicuously, feeling somewhat jealous.
In their view, the greatest guarantee for the fox people's survival is the intelligence network in their hands. It is also because of the existence of the intelligence network that they can get more opportunities and gain a bigger backer in the current situation.
However, when the intelligence network was first established, these families also made great efforts. Logically, they also had a share of the credit for the intelligence network. However, they were no match for the fox people in terms of brainpower and were silently suppressed to the margins. The intelligence network also became a one-man show for the fox people.
Although they had some complaints in their hearts, they couldn't say anything as they had Senhu as their backer.
The goat-bearded man looked at the doubts in everyone's eyes, smiled a little, and said directly without keeping anyone in suspense: "We were vassals of the Senhu clan before, but now our former master has been exterminated. If we want to find another supporter, we will have to leave our homeland. We might as well go with the flow and worship the Black Dragon Demon King as our master."
"The Black Dragon Demon King is in need of men right now. If we can go and join him at this time, we will certainly be able to be put to important positions. Isn't this much safer than what Master Hu said?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned at first, and then nodded in agreement.
"Yes, yes, how could we forget about this one."
"Don't forget that the Black Dragon Demon King is a mid-stage Demon King. If we can become his vassal, no one will be able to bully us anymore. Maybe he can even take us to the demon clan. Wouldn't that bring honor to our family?"
The sturdy man with horns spoke first, with a smile on his face, as if he had already seen the scene.
The long-eared woman looked a little hesitant, and then she said, "But the Black Dragon Demon King is not from here after all. Even if he can accept us now, let alone whether he can survive the battle, even if he can survive, he may not be able to take us away. What should we do then? Don't we have to look for another place?"
“I think this is still too risky.”
This long-eared woman is the chief of the rabbit people. She is cautious by nature, but like the fox people, she is close to the human race and is also Hu Yi's main target.
Goatbeard seemed to be well prepared, having expected them to say such things. He smiled mysteriously and said, "To be honest, I was recruited by the Black Dragon Demon King a few days ago, but at that time I thought that the benefits could not be enjoyed by one person alone, so it would be better to bring in other half-demon races.
When he said this, his tone was sarcastic, and his eyes looked at Hu Yi from time to time, obviously mocking the fox clan for monopolizing the intelligence network.
The horned man didn't have that much brains, so he didn't understand what the goat-bearded man meant. But he was also somewhat dissatisfied with the fox people's behavior, so he said, "I've always said that Brother Yang is a righteous man, unlike some people who take all the benefits in peacetime and jump out in times of war to push us into the fire pit."
He was obviously furious, his blood boiling, and he seemed ready to fight.
Seeing this, a long-faced man quickly came out to smooth things over. He stood up and said with a smile: "You can't say that. I think everyone has their own strengths."
"We have received a lot of favors from the fox people over the years. They told us a lot of news in advance. I think you have also gained a lot of good things over the years."
Hu Yi did not get angry when he heard this, he just sneered and said, "It turns out that Chief Yang and Chief Niu have so many opinions about us fox people, why didn't they say it when they were taking advantage of us before?"
"You two may have forgotten what happened back then, but my fox clan still remembers it."
More than a hundred years ago, the intelligence network at that time was mainly composed of fox people, and there were also many people from other half-demon races holding important positions. In the end, a big mistake was made, but all the responsibility was put on the fox people, causing the fox people to receive extremely severe punishment. This gradually marginalized the other half-demon races and formed the current organization.
Although these half-demons are a little smarter than the demons of the same level, they are still some distance away from the fox people.
After the fox man completely took control of the intelligence network, there were no more serious mistakes like this. Seeing this, Sen Hu turned a blind eye and ignored the fact that the fox man was in charge of the intelligence network.
In their view anyway, whoever controls the intelligence network is their slave and they can kill them with just a word. They can also use this to divide the half-demons and check and balance each other, so why not do it?
Over the years, the fox people had put aside their past grudges and given some benefits to other half-demon races from time to time. Unexpectedly, not only did they not keep it in mind, but they even wanted to get involved in the intelligence network. This made Hu Yi ridicule them, leaving the two men speechless.
Seeing that the two were silent, Hu Yi spoke again: "You can think of the Black Dragon Demon King, can't my Fox Clan think of it?"
"What the Rabbit Clan leader said is exactly what the Fox Clan is worried about. Moreover, the Black Dragon Demon King has an even worse reputation among the demon clan. He is ungrateful and mean, and does everything he can to make money from his subordinates. Is there anything good for us if we fall into his hands?"
"The other demon kings are all like this. If we want to join their ranks, we will definitely have to pay a huge price?"
“Instead of giving away so much wealth, it is better to fight hard and create a bright future!”
What he said was true, the Black Dragon Demon King did have that kind of temper, but the most important reason was that the Black Dragon Demon King had a deep conflict with his master. Just for this reason, it was impossible for him to deal with the Black Dragon Demon King.
"My fellow tribe leaders, you have been staying in the tribe for many years and have not seen what the situation of our people is like outside. To use the words of the human race, it is a living hell."
"The reason you can still sit here and talk big is because you are not the ones who are suffering."
"Open your eyes and take a look at the lives of our people, and then you will know where the way out for half-demons lies!"
Until now, Hu Yi is still giving advice in a kind way.
But the man with the goatee stood up with a bang, pointed at Hu Yi and said, "You little brat, do you know what you are talking about?!"
"There are good days to live, but you have to throw the fate of all half-demons into a so-called struggle with no clear future. What use is a small fire like yours? What use is the intelligence network behind you? In the eyes of those powerful people, everything is false."
"It's just something that can be smashed with a slap. They just don't want to destroy the fox tribe and rebuild the intelligence network at this time. You are so proud of this. It's really unreasonable."
"I think you are most likely to have surrendered to the human race, which is why you speak human language."
"I will capture you right now and hand you over to the Demon King for punishment!" (End of this chapter)
