Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1790 - 808: Traces of Azure

Although Lord Jing’s hand was still gently touching Buddha’s Heart, his slight loss of composure had gradually subsided.

"What do you want?"

He went straight to the point without any qualms.

Because here, it was his turf, there were no hidden dangers, and discussions could be open.

"I want the Demon Capital to disappear! I want... the head of Demon Emperor Lan Yuhe!"

When mentioning Demon Emperor Lan Yuhe, Lu Lu raised her voice by a few degrees.

The man who... killed Elder Tang, even if it costs her everything, she wants Lan Yuhe to pay the price!

"Demon Capital? Demon Emperor? I’ve always heard that the Absolute Sect can’t tolerate any demons existing in the world. I used to think it was just exaggerated rumors, but turns out it’s true."

Lord Jing slowly withdrew his hand and smiled: "However, having lived for so many years, I haven’t developed many abilities, but I do have the ability to see through people. I think... your desire to destroy Demon Capital is likely not due to public matters, but due to private ones, isn’t it?"

"That’s none of your business!"

"Hahahaha! I’m just concerned about our future alliance. To be honest, the matter of Demon Capital, the existence of the Demon Emperor, is quite troubling to us here at the court as well. You might not know, a few months ago, our court sent a contingent of troops south to attack the demons of Demon Capital, but the results..."

Lord Jing didn’t continue.

Although they suppressed public opinion and the trend of discussions, the incident was practically open knowledge among the high-echelon in the Capital and the well-informed individuals.

The most perplexing is the current Holy Emperor’s thoughts, neither expressing nor investigating, with an entire army and a general lost, yet no follow-up.

Later, the Demon Capital also stayed quite well in that barren land.

No one delved into the reasons, no one dared to investigate in this area, and the issue of the Demon Capital was even considered a hot potato in court, not daring to be mentioned at all.

It’s as if the matter of that land was already concluded, that land belongs to Demon Emperor Lan Yuhe, and the court no longer pursues it, turning a blind eye to it.

The strangeness of this matter makes people shudder upon deep reflection.

Of course, the people at court do not think the Da Xia Dynasty cannot eradicate a Demon Capital. But it’s heard that the Second Prince, lost outside, once went to the borderlands.

The Holy Emperor might not want to dispatch forces to attack again merely seeing the Second Prince could be in that area, or there might be internal secrets, hence no further action.

But, the Second Prince, lost outside, has now returned to the Imperial City! Naturally, these concerns also dissipate, and it is not out of possibility that the Holy Emperor might send troops again to extinguish the Demon Capital.

"I know about that incident."

Lu Lu sneered.

"There are too many useless people nurtured within the court, each thinking themselves superior, looking down on places outside the Capital, unable to see their true selves. What generals, daring to charge into the Demon Capital with some people, is simply courting death!"

Although Lu Lu’s tone was mocking, she indeed had the impulse to bring people from the Absolute Sect to cooperate with the Capital’s army to attack the Demon Capital when she got the news back then.

Who would have thought that the army mysteriously went missing in Thunder City, and following that, news of Demon Capital’s victories emerged one after another.

However, despite the Capital army dying so disgracefully and without any odds of winning, Lu Lu understood.

It’s not that the Capital could not eliminate the Demon Capital, but rather that the Capital hadn’t sent out its true experts!

"If, this time, the lord behind Lord Jing would take action, I don’t think Demon Emperor Lan Yuhe would be any match for him!"

Lu Lu bent over respectfully.

But upon hearing Lu Lu mention the lord behind him, Lord Jing’s face noticeably turned purple then blue, looking quite unsightly.

His emotions were clearly quite restrained, yet he couldn’t help but let his tone become slightly harsher.

"Sect members are really unruly! Words so unreliable, if mixed into the court, Miss Lu Lu might not know how many people she would offend!"

Calling it offensive was being diplomatic.

Under the pressure of Lord Jing, such an impulsive, straightforward person would barely survive three days in the court’s games.

After all, in the Capital, there are far too many people stronger than this girl.

"I belong to the Absolute Sect, why should I adhere to the Capital’s rules! Without my subordinates continuously killing the demons from the Capital, would you have found me so quickly, established contact with me? Everything has pros and cons; our rules are simply more efficient than yours!"

"You?!"

Lord Jing’s face sank, looking at Lu Lu like an ignorant wild monkey until his gaze swept over Buddha’s Heart, he then took a deep breath, suppressing his temper, slowly revealing a smile.

"What is Miss Lu Lu doing? Everyone has their own way of doing things. It’s not about right or wrong, efficiency or inefficiency; it’s just about what suits..."

"Shut up! I’m not interested in your old folks’ blabber! Tell the person behind you, if you want Buddha’s Heart, cooperate with me to eliminate the Demon Capital and kill Demon Emperor Lan Yuhe. Otherwise, this thing will never appear in front of you again!"

Having said that, Lu Lu reached out to retrieve Buddha’s Heart, but was hurriedly stopped by Lord Jing.

"Wait! Miss Lu Lu, no rush! No rush! Let’s take it step by step and discuss slowly. Even if the lord really wants to cooperate, we still need to sit down and talk about the specific plans, don’t we? Not something to rush. Also, Miss Lu Lu, I have one thing I want to clarify. This thing... besides showing it to me, have you shown it to anyone else?"
