At the sa ti, at the Yihu Alliance's main hall.
The Tiger King brought the Demoness and invited her to the main seat.
Moreover, he reserved a seat for Kong Guyoulan, but she didn't sit, choosing to stand devotedly behind the Demoness instead.
"Demoness, although our relationship is growing closer, you haven't visited our Yihu Alliance often. We should really et more frequently in the future."
The Tiger King made polite conversation while signaling soone to pour tea for the Demoness.
"Indeed, as allies, and with the Tiger King willing to help us against the Sky Wolf Alliance, it's only right that we support each other wholeheartedly," the Demoness said seriously.
It turns out that the Demoness was negotiating with the Tiger King because he had promised to assist the Demon Moon Alliance against the Sky Wolf Alliance!
The Sky Wolf Alliance had been harboring malicious intent towards the Demon Moon Alliance for a long ti.
Recently, there were reports that the Sky Wolf Alliance was actively mobilizing its forces, signaling an imminent attack.
Given the Demon Moon Alliance's own resources, it's difficult to contend with the Sky Wolf Alliance, hence the need for external support.
On that basis, the Yihu Alliance was naturally the first choice.
Therefore, the Demoness took it upon herself to strengthen relations between the two alliances, personally visiting to show goodwill and formally invite help from the Yihu Alliance.
"Ha ha, say no more! Your matters are my matters; the Sky Wolf Alliance is nothing worth ntioning!"
The Tiger King laughed heartily and personally handed the teacup prepared by his subordinate to the Demoness, saying, "Demoness, try our Yihu Alliance's 'Tiger Tea'. It's a unique brew, unmatched by any other, that you won't find elsewhere."
"You're too kind, Tiger King. It's an honor to accept your generous help. I'll thank you with this tea as if it were wine!"
The Demoness sincerely accepted the tea from the Tiger King and raised it as she spoke.
The Tiger King smiled slyly; this was the mont he had been waiting for!
Once the Demoness drank the tea, she would be his woman tonight!
However, just as the Demoness was about to drink, a hurried voice suddenly echoed in the hall: "Fox Master, you can't drink that!!"
Instantly, everyone in the hall turned to look in the sa direction!
Soone had hidden outside the hall rushed in swiftly.
"Ruyan?!" The Demoness exclaid in surprise, seeing Dong Ruyan present.
Kong Guyoulan also showed surprise, stepping forward and asking, "Ruyan, what are you doing here?"
"Fox Master, Aunt Lan, you mustn't drink their tea! The Tiger King has put drugs in the tea! He has ill intentions and wants to sche against you!" Dong Ruyan said urgently.
"What?!" The Demoness was initially stunned, then stood up, her expression stern, questioning the Tiger King with furrowed brows, "Tiger King, is this true?"
The Tiger King felt a bit annoyed; everything had been about to succeed, but where did this girl suddenly spring from?
"Cough, cough, how could that be? Demoness, am I such a person?"
The Tiger King forced a smile and gave Dong Ruyan a cold, scrutinizing look while speaking with a fake smile: "Young lady, how did you suddenly appear in our Yihu Alliance, and where did you hear such rumors?"
"Tiger King, stop pretending! I was nearby when you were speaking with your confidant! You want to sche against the Fox Master to gain control of our Demon Moon Alliance. You said it yourself; can you deny it?" Dong Ruyan accused angrily.
"Tiger King, is this really true?" The Demoness's face turned icy upon hearing this, coldly staring at the Tiger King!
The Tiger King's expression changed quickly, but he forced a smile again, "Demoness, don't listen to her nonsense; there's no such thing. How could I do sothing so base?"
At this mont, he felt extrely annoyed that his conversation with his confidant had been overheard!
What humiliated him more was that soone had quietly infiltrated the Yihu Alliance, and he hadn't noticed at all!
It was all his fault for being too confident, assuming his base was impregnable and letting his guard down.
"Tiger King! I know Ruyan's character; she would never speak without reason. If she says this happened, then it certainly did!" Kong Guyoulan turned her head, also coldly staring at the Tiger King!
"Kong Guyoulan, what is the aning of this?" The Tiger King asked with a grim face.
"Tiger King, stop pretending!" The Demoness also said angrily, "I trusted you wholeheartedly, believing you to be a reliable ally, but you harbored evil intents! You've disappointed greatly!"
The Tiger King, seeing there was no way to hide it, finally dropped his façade and laughed: "Demoness, if you put it that way, then it sounds pointless! Why would I expend effort and resources to help you? Of course, you'd have to pay so price! I admit, I am drawn to your beauty, but you, by nature, wouldn't willingly submit to . I had no choice but to resort to this..."
Upon hearing this, the Demoness's face beca even frostier, and her entire aura condensed abruptly!
Yet the Tiger King remained unconcerned, as if the Demoness coming here had ant she was already trapped, unable to escape his grasp no matter what!
He continued to gaze at the Demoness with a brazen smile: "Since my wife died, I haven't remarried! If you had any sense, you'd know my closeness to you is due to my feelings for you. We're a match made in heaven; you don't need to think about escaping now that you're here!"
"Silence!" The unyielding, stern Demoness felt sowhat embarrassed by the old lecher's speech, but her anger prevailed!
"Tiger King, heed this! From now on, the Demon Moon Alliance and the Yihu Alliance sever all ties; we are enemies, not friends! Take care!" The Demoness didn't spare the Tiger King another glance; she turned and left with Kong Guyoulan and her followers.
But unfortunately—
The Tiger King waved a large hand, and suddenly, many people rushed into the hall, blocking the Demoness and her party!
They encircled the Demoness, the won with her, and Dong Ruyan.
"Demoness, you're too naive; you're forcing to tear off the mask!"
The Tiger King shook his head in disappointnt: "Originally, I didn't want our relationship to beco so strained. Even if I had you, I would only train you into an obedient slave, making you yield to my every wish!"
"But you ruined my plan, forcing to treat you harshly."
"Protect the Fox Master!!" Kong Guyoulan commanded, imdiately forming a six-pointed star shape with the five trusted aides the Demoness brought, sheltering her in the center.
Led by Aunt Lan, the six confidants were actually the Six Guardians around the Demoness, each extraordinarily powerful, constituting the top combat force within the Demon Moon Alliance!
"Ha ha, are you amusing ? With just a few, entering my Yihu Alliance, you think you can leave unscathed?"
The Tiger King smiled pityingly: "Why not stay and let enjoy myself wholly? I've never experienced savoring so much beauty at once..."
Just as the Tiger King was growing sure of himself and preparing to act, suddenly, another person rushed in from outside the hall in a panic.
"Tiger King, Tiger King, sothing terrible has happened!!!"
It was a maid of the lowest status in the headquarters; yet she was now shouting fearfully, rushing in and stumbling to her knees at the center of the hall.
"What's going on?" The Tiger King furrowed his brows deeply, feeling greatly displeased by this interruption to his delight!
"Young Master... the Young Master was killed!" The maid gasped, face pale as she said: "An assassin infiltrated the alliance and killed the Young Master!!!"
