Chapter 196: Chapter 166: The Pact Between Demon Race and Humanity, The Forbidden Land of Changbai Mountain

Humans and the Demon Race have been in a standoff for a long time.

Bai Ge hung up the phone and whispered to Cao Yi:

"Director Zheng has given the order to leave Changbai Mountain immediately.

A meeting has been held, and the Bai Mountain City Safety Management Station has declared Changbai Mountain a forbidden area.

No one is allowed to go up the mountain, and demons are not allowed to come down."

Cao Yi frowned;

"Does this mean an agreement has been reached with the Demon Race?"

Bai Ge nodded:

"You still have to negotiate."

According to Zheng Qian’s character, after learning about the Demon Race’s move, he will definitely advocate peaceful coexistence with them.

He certainly wouldn’t gamble his official position with the demons.

Cao Yi gave Crow a deep look, clasped his hands respectfully, and said:

"We will leave Changbai Mountain immediately and will never disturb again.

However, the Demon Race must not come down to harass humans."

Heartless Little Monkey sneered and cursed:

"You are still jabbering on.

The Demon Race has never harassed humans, but you humans have continuously provoked us!"

Crow said coldly:

"From now on, if any human dares to come up the mountain again, then it’s war."

Cao Yi nodded, clasped his hands again:

"Alright."

So, this treaty was formed.

This shows the difference between the Demon Race and humans.

For humans to reach any agreement, it takes several rounds of meetings and dragging for months or half a year to finalize.

But with the Demon Race, it could be arranged with just a few words in the wild forest.

Cao Yi turned back, got into the car, and made a gesture outside the car window:

"Retreat!"

Humans came quickly, and they left just as swiftly.

They came in great numbers and left in great numbers.

Heartless Little Monkey clenched his fists tightly:

"Big Brother, are we really letting them go just like that? It’s really frustrating!"

Crow’s eyes were dim, and he said quietly:

"Can we beat them?"

This harsh reality silenced Heartless Little Monkey.

The current Demon Race lacks the qualification to confront humans head-on.

Fox Xiaosan looked at Crow, her eyes glittering with admiration:

"Your Majesty, you are incredible!

We may not win on the battlefield, but we have surely won people’s hearts!"

Fox Xiaosan did not care about appearances or victory, only whether the Demon Race could avoid devastation.

With just a few words, Crow made the demons retreat. How could she not be excited? How could she not admire Crow?

Crow had a faint smile at the corner of his mouth:

"This wasn’t my idea."

Fox Xiaosan said in surprise:

"Did you ask for reinforcements a few days ago to get this strategy?

It works better than mustering thousands of troops!"

Crow sighed lightly and said:

"If he wanted to, none of these humans could leave Changbai Mountain alive.

When there’s a chance, I will take you to meet that presence."

Fox Xiaosan’s affectionate eyes were full of anticipation.

Compared to fighting, she preferred such strategies.

Whoever could earn the respect and worship of His Majesty must be fascinating.

Crow’s voice turned low:

"He also said that having a big fist is the truth, only then will humans peacefully listen.

Starting today, all demons must focus on study and meditation!

I don’t want to experience this humiliation again!"

Fox Xiaosan recalled something and said seriously:

"What about Mr. Xiang...?"

Crow was silent for a while and said:

"I will go find him."

.....

The school was empty, Xiang Kunlun sat on the podium. Even with the big Monkey standing beside him, he felt lonely.

The big Monkey said sulkily:

"Sir, it’s time for a meal, please eat something."

Xiang Kunlun shook his head:

"Da Shan, you go out, I’d like some peace."

"Oh." The big Monkey bowed and walked out of the school.

Reaching the door, the big Monkey paused:

"Your Majesty."

"Yes, go ahead."

Crow had been standing at the school entrance for an unknown amount of time.

He didn’t know how to face Xiang Kunlun.

Crow felt this way for the second time in his life.

The feeling of shame.

The first time was when he secretly went to a relic with Li Yang and ended up being kicked out of his home.

This time, he didn’t know how to wrap things up.

After all, he had killed the man’s son.

Crow thought that being the Emperor, killing a minister’s son wouldn’t burden him, but it seemed that wasn’t the case.

"Sigh!"

Crow sighed softly, entered the school, and faced Xiang Kunlun:

"Sir."

Xiang Kunlun’s lips moved slightly before he spoke:

"Is my useless son still alive?"

Crow said:

"Killed."

Xiang Kunlun lowered his head:

"I see."

Crow’s eyes filled with complexity, he said:

"Sir, if you don’t want to continue teaching, I will let you go."

The air turned quiet.

Xiang Kunlun said:

"No matter how incompetent my son was, he was still my son.

My son was killed by the Demon Race, yet I am still teaching them. That goes against my beliefs and principles.

I am a teacher to these children and should lead by example.

Otherwise, someday I might teach children who betray their clan."

Crow said nothing.

He said solemnly:

"I should have spared him to save your dignity.

But, I had to kill him.

Otherwise, with not a single human dead, this farce would have shamed the Demon Race."

Xiang Kunlun said:

"You are the King, you do not need to explain to a teacher like me."

Crow said:

"I still hope Sir can stay."

Xiang Kunlun said:

"When I no longer have a reason to stay, I will leave.

One day when I leave, don’t try to keep me, Your Majesty."

Crow frowned:

"Reason?"

Xiang Kunlun raised his head, as if hearing the sound of demon children reading, he said calmly:

"There are three hundred eighty-five children here.

This is three hundred eighty-five reasons.

Their course is nearing the end, and then they will become new teachers to teach others."

Crow was taken aback.

He looked at Xiang Kunlun in disbelief.

For the principle, he left the Demon Race.

For the demons, he stayed here to teach a generation knowledgeable in principles to pass on culture.

This old man, this old man who was an ordinary person, had such an overwhelming aura, as majestic as Mount Tai!

Is this what humans call the truth?

To cultivate three hundred eighty-five teachers for the Demon Race, this would lay the foundation for the Demon Race’s kingdom!

Crow slowly retreated, and respectfully bowed to Xiang Kunlun:

"Thank you, Sir!"

In his lifetime, he had only bowed to two people.

One was Li Yang, and the other was Xiang Kunlun.

Xiang Kunlun no longer paid attention to Crow, turning his head away. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Crow could feel Xiang Kunlun’s grieving emotions, and carefully exited the school.

He called the big Monkey at the door, handed over a few green grasses:

"Next time when you cook, put these in."

The big Monkey took the Spirit Plants that could transform humans and animals into Extraordinary beings:

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

.....

South Sea, Half-Mountain Villa.

Although it wasn’t fully summer yet, it was already hot in the South Sea.

In the afternoon, the insects on the mountain were too hot to sleep, playing a natural symphony together.

The villa was alright; with the north-south doors and east-west windows open, the natural breezes swept away the heat, making it quite cool.

Suzu lay on the floor watching anime.

Li Yang sat cross-legged on the sofa, swiping through short videos.

Recently, some of the things in the short videos were quite interesting.
