Qin Chen left the Chaotic World and continued to stay at the Seventh Demon General's Mansion, silently cultivating.
He believed that the Blackstone Demon Lord would soon take action. After all, his affairs had stirred up a lot of noise on Heart of Demons Island, and he clearly sensed a presence during the Dueling Arena that had even issued commands to the Old Elder who presided over the duel.
He did not believe that the Blackstone Demon Lord could remain calm for long.
Sure enough, the next day, a group of demon guards suddenly descended upon the Seventh Demon General's Mansion.
"The Demon Lord has ordered the Seventh Demon General to pay a visit."
A loud voice echoed through the heavens and earth.
"Finally here," Qin Chen smiled slightly in the Demon General's Mansion.
He had thought that the Blackstone Demon Lord was more patient, but it turned out he had only endured for one day.
"Boom!"
Qin Chen soared into the sky. This time, he did not bring anyone with him, just heading alone to the Demon Lord's Manor.
The demon guard who came to deliver the order glanced at Qin Chen and immediately turned to lead the way.
After a moment, Qin Chen arrived once again at the Demon Lord's Manor.
This time, the Demon Lord's Manor seemed somewhat different from yesterday; everyone's expressions were quite serious.
Once this group of demon guards brought Qin Chen to the Demon Lord's Mansion, a group of strong individuals immediately stepped forward, blocking Qin Chen and his entourage.
"Stop."
The leader, a woman, said coldly, and the two demon guards behind her were also women.
"Greetings, Demon Knight." The leading demon guard quickly bowed to the woman, looking respectful.
Demon Knight!
Qin Chen's gaze flickered.
It was said that the Blackstone Demon Lord of Heart of Demons Island was extremely mysterious and rarely appeared in the outside world. Aside from a few people who might have the chance to see him, even some demon generals might not meet him.
The Demon Knight, then, was the one who served the Blackstone Demon Lord, the closest person to him. No wonder these demon guards were so respectful.
Not to mention the demon guards, even ordinary demon generals had to act respectfully in front of a Demon Knight, after all, the Demon Knight was a trusted aide of the Demon Lord.
The woman's expression was proud, and she ignored the leading demon guard, merely sizing up Qin Chen with a cold gaze, saying, "Is this person the new Seventh Demon General?"
"Indeed it is," the demon guard quickly saluted.
"Hmph, why do you not bow upon seeing this Demon Knight?"
The Demon Knight said coldly, her eyes icy.
Qin Chen replied indifferently, "You are a Demon Knight, but I am a Demon General. Why should I bow to you?"
"Audacious!"
The two Demon Tribe Women behind the Demon Knight shouted sharply, stepping forward with killing intent surging.
Qin Chen glanced at the two and said faintly, "Isn't that so? A Demon Knight is merely a guard under the command of the Demon Lord. To put it nicely, you are a guard; to put it harshly, with the strength of the Demon Lord, how could he need anyone to protect him? A so-called Demon Knight is nothing but a maid under the Demon Lord, a servant to serve the Demon Lord."
"Though the title of Demon Knight sounds impressive, in reality, it has no specific position and is just a servant."
"And the Demon General is the executor managing the area of the Chaos God Demon Sea and Heart of Demons Island for the Demon Lord, with specific authority. In terms of identity and status, I am above you, so why should I bow to you?"
Qin Chen scoffed.
As soon as he said this, the surrounding demon guards were dumbfounded, staring at Qin Chen in horror, retreating, their expressions filled with fear, quickly prostrating themselves on the ground.
Is this kid crazy?
In fact, the Demon Knight was indeed, as Qin Chen said, merely a maid of the Demon Lord, but regardless, after all, she was a servant of the Demon Lord.
A minor official in front of a prime minister.
