The old man speaking is the seventh Grand General, named Li Ai.
At this moment, Li Ai stood in front of Hu Wei, his eyes full of provocation.
Hu Wei was extremely clever; how could he not understand the challenge in Li Ai's words? However, at this moment, he must not show weakness. So he gritted his teeth with a hearty laugh, appearing indifferent, and said, "What kind of gift would the Demon Wolf King dare not accept?"
Li Ai said, "My gift is a heavy treasure, and only someone with the cultivation level of a High-Tier Demon Venerable can lift this Magical Treasure. I wonder if the Demon Wolf King's cultivation level can handle this Magical Treasure?"
Li Ai's words expressed the thoughts of all the generals.
For as they looked at the "Wang Yan" in front of them, he seemed to only have the cultivation of a Demon Emperor.
If it weren't for the reputation of the Demon Wolf King, why bother with these many words? They would have already slapped forward and killed this Demon Wolf King.
Hu Wei raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "A few days ago, someone also questioned my cultivation level."
"Who?" Li Ai asked.
"I think his name is Meng Ao."
Upon hearing this, the generals all felt a chill and immediately recalled the rumors they'd heard.
Meng Ao, as a High-Tier Demon Venerable, led the Ten Great Demon Venerable to Yunmeng County, but the Meng Family's three members all died at the hands of the Demon Wolf King, with only five Demon Venerable escaping.
Although most of the ten Demon Venerable Meng Ao led were of the Initial or Middle Tier, unable to compare with them.
Among their nine people, amazingly, four were at Great Perfection Demon Venerable, and five were High-Tier Demon Venerable.
But the thought that the Demon Wolf King could slay three members of the Meng Family alone suggested that such power could indeed stand side by side with them at Great Perfection Demon Venerable.
Thinking of this, the provocation on Li Ai's face faded significantly, and gradually, he showed a hint of hesitation.
However, Li Ai's eyes turned, and he sneered once more, saying, "I've long heard that the Demon Wolf King's cultivation is extraordinary. I wonder if today I'll have the privilege to witness the Demon Wolf King's Divine Techniques, so we can broaden our horizons."
Saying this, Li Ai glanced at the people around, and the other generals also nodded repeatedly.
Hu Wei shook his head indifferently and said, "Sure, why not, but I have a habit, and I wonder if anyone would help me out."
Li Ai heard this and said, "Please speak."
Hu Wei said, "My Divine Techniques never miss. When I use them, there are bound to be casualties. So I request someone helps me catch my Divine Techniques. Although my Divine Techniques are a bit domineering, considering you are all Grand Generals, you surely won't be killed by my Divine Techniques."
Hearing the threat in Hu Wei's words, Li Ai became even more apprehensive and dared not to rashly take Hu Wei's move, pondering silently for a moment.
The other generals sat in their chairs, not daring to stand up and respond, as no one wanted to be the first bird.
For a moment, the entire palace fell into silence.
After a while, Li Ai clicked his tongue and said, "Well...heh heh, the Demon Wolf King's Divine Techniques are strong. Although we're not afraid, we're only worried this palace might not withstand a strike from the Demon Wolf King. I think we better forget it."
Li Ai's two attempts were firmly blocked by Hu Wei. For a time, Li Ai couldn't figure out Hu Wei's depth, so he slowly sat back down.
Just then, a thin man sitting across from Li Ai gave an insidious smile and said, "The Demon Wolf King's strength is indeed extraordinary. I think we should take our leave."
Saying this, the thin man stood up, looking as if he was about to turn and leave.
Seeing that he had finally scared away the nine generals, Hu Wei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but his face still appeared calm, saying indifferently, "Then I won't see you off."
However, after the thin man stood up, he didn't leave but instead took a step forward, staring at Hu Wei and said, "Before leaving, there's something I want to ask the Demon Wolf King."
Hu Wei said, "Go ahead."
The thin man's eyes flickered, and he wore a faint cold smile, saying, "My Demon Pattern is a rabbit, the weakest in combat among the nine Grand Generals."
Hearing the thin man didn't ask a question but instead talked about his Demon Pattern, Hu Wei couldn't help feeling a little puzzled, with a vague sense of unease rising in his heart.
The thin man continued, "But I have a special Magic Skill, which is how I came to be among the Grand Generals. That is, my ears are particularly keen, capable of hearing in all directions."
Hu Wei's unease intensified as he asked, "And so?"
The thin man said, "Ever since I entered the palace, I've been listening to the Demon Wolf King's heartbeat. When General Li Ai troubled the Demon Wolf King, although he appeared calm, his heart rate accelerated sharply. After General Li Ai sat down, the Demon Wolf King's heart rate immediately slowed. When I suggested leaving, the Demon Wolf King's heart surprisingly beat to an extreme of excitement. So, though the Demon Wolf King seems calm on the surface, his inner self isn't as peaceful as it appears. I wonder why that is?"
Hearing the thin man's words, Hu Wei was greatly astonished, realizing that despite his efforts to disguise it, he ultimately couldn't control his heartbeat.
Unexpectedly, it was precisely this point that allowed them to seize leverage.
Upon hearing the thin man's words, Li Ai and the others immediately stood up from their chairs, grinning fiendishly as they approached Hu Wei.
Hu Wei's heart was already in extreme panic, but he still maintained a calm exterior, sitting leisurely in his chair, saying nonchalantly, "Really? Are you sure you heard it right?"
The thin man stated eerily, "I don't know if it was right or not, but just now as I said this, I clearly heard that the Demon Wolf King's heart was about to leap out of his throat."
Seeing that he couldn't hide anything from the thin man, Hu Wei truly had no way to recover the situation.
So, he gritted his teeth and said, "Hahaha, since you claim to be so certain, why not come and try if I'm really afraid?"
With that said, Hu Wei suddenly stood up from his chair, with a vigorous aura glaring at the nine Grand Generals in front of him.
The nine Grand Generals had already surrounded Hu Wei. At this moment, seeing Hu Wei suddenly stand up, they couldn't help but be startled and simultaneously took half a step back.
Only the thin man stood there unmoving, sneering, "Even when you stood up just now, your heartbeat kept racing; Demon Wolf King, you don't need to hide it anymore. Now, you're scared to death, aren't you?"
After saying this, the thin man didn't retreat but advanced, stepping up to stand in front of Hu Wei and said, "I am willing to take a strike from the Demon Wolf King's Divine Techniques to see if my judgment is right or wrong."
Hu Wei narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but laugh, "Alright, but I've heard that rabbits like to eat carrots; I wonder if rabbits like mushrooms too?"
With that said, Hu Wei muttered a phrase, "I'll let you enjoy it."
Then a hand-sized mushroom appeared in Hu Wei's hand. Hu Wei flicked his hand, tossing the mushroom towards the thin man.
With a "boom" sound, the mushroom exploded in front of the thin man.
Yet, the thin man didn't dodge at all, letting the mushroom explode right before him.
As the explosion unfolded, the thin man instead charged forward, plunging himself straight into the blast.
While Hu Wei was astonished, he saw the thin man suddenly burst out of the explosion, appearing right in front of him.
Raising his hand, the thin man punched Hu Wei in the chest.
This was a Demon Venerable's strike; as a Demon Emperor, how could Hu Wei withstand such a hit?
Hu Wei let out a muffled groan, his body flew backward, smashing through the chair behind him, continuing to fly backward, hitting the wall behind him, shattering the wall and embedding deeply within it.
With a mouthful, Hu Wei spewed a spray of fresh blood, his face as pale as paper.
