Chapter 685 Unfinished Work
"Where's the promised plot to turn the tide?"
Amidst the roar of the destruction of the demonic realm, Huai Shi sat on the stone and began to meditate.
After watching the whole process, he only felt a chill. On a hot day, his hands and feet were cold. When can we, the tool people, stand up? It seems that I didn’t do much at all on this trip?
Is that all? solved?
Huai Shi looked at Guo Shouche doubtfully, "Lu Ming Guan will probably intervene next, right?"
"That's other people's work, and we don't need to take care of it." Guo Shouche said.
"What about the interference and influence of other forces?"
"There are dedicated people in charge."
"Then what?" Huai Shi asked.
"Then, there was no more."
Guo Shouque drank the last drop of soup in the bowl and put down the porcelain bowl.
When he raised his head, he saw a majestic warrior wearing armor slowly walking out from the broken palace. Wherever it passes, the sacred aura of the royal paradise spreads, extinguishing all resentment in the air.
That was when the dark side was swept away, and the solemn and sacred Fazhe Luo Glaze Equipment was once again revealed - the Eighth Room!
After killing the collection of demonic thoughts in it, all the power he had transformed into Zi Zi had been swallowed up by Gu Huo and Jiu Feng. Today, Amber is in its unprecedented heyday.
With the blessing of the Stigma Relic, Hachifou, she is already the natural head of the Satomi clan and the king of the Anfang Kingdom.
"That's great, that's great."
Huai Shi clapped her hands and congratulated you: "Congratulations, Kohaku, Higurashi! In this way, it's all over. It's great, great! Now that the work is over, I can't stay for a long time, so I'll take my leave. As for the Uji treasure, Let’s talk next time, then that’s it, bye~”
After saying that, he picked up the unconscious Maki on the ground and wanted to run away.
Then, I saw...Guo Shouche blocking the way.
"Miss Huazhi."
The evil middle-aged man showed a strange smile: "You don't think that this is the end, do you?"
"What? You want to kill the cunning rabbit and cook it as a lackey?" Huai Shi raised his eyebrows: "Isn't this bad? I thought the Eastern Xia genealogy was all about credibility."
"No, it's just that the work isn't done yet."
Guo Shouque still smiled: "You see, the Kitchen Demon showdown is not over yet, is it? If this link is missing, the legitimacy of the Amber family head will also be questioned."
He said, "Your work and my work are not done yet."
The pair of animalistic eyes like those of a predator stared at Huai Shi, not allowing him to leave.
Huai Shi frowned: "Even if you reopen now, there will be no judges."
"This is simple. I carry it with me."
Guo Shouque raised his feet and put them on the bamboo basket. Suddenly, in the darkness inside the bamboo basket, two embarrassed figures covered in mucus suddenly vomited out. They screamed in horror as soon as they came out, not knowing what happened.
It was the emperor's messenger and his entourage.
"Look, the judges are here." Guo Shouque spread his hands.
"..." Huai Shi's eyes twitched and she continued to retort: "Even if there are judges, there is no atmosphere without an audience, right?"
"It's easier."
Guo Shouque clapped his hands and looked in all directions, his deep laughter echoing throughout the Satomi family's manor.
Soon, one after another, either embarrassed or neat figures came out of the shadows and corners. Without exception, all of them had complicated expressions.
When a sudden change occurred, most of the candidates and the Kitchen Demon were involved. Before figuring out the situation, in order to preserve themselves as much as possible, they finally chose to help each other and huddle up to defend themselves.
Although they were severely punished, except for a few unlucky ones, most of the cooking demons and a few candidates were still beards and tails.
Just a little miserable.
Unexpectedly, after the dust settled, Kohaku actually had the eighth house in his hands, and the orthodoxy was in control. And the elders who were in charge of the housework, the Eight Dogs, were dead and injured, and had no ability to take charge of the affairs.
There are many ambitious people who have taken the lead in starting private connections to seek opportunities. But after witnessing Terudou's divine power, he still refused to give up, and had already been poured cold water on by his own cooking demon - Brother, forget it, it's not like seeking death. When we have this time, wouldn't it be good to lick the new head of the family?
Some people feel bad about it but dare not say it. They have already made up their minds to go to Kyoto to make trouble, but now no matter how crazy they are, they can only smile on their faces.
"Everyone has been watching for so long... So, are you free? Are you willing to watch the game?" Guo Shouque smiled warmly: "It's free, no charge."
Everyone's faces suddenly turned ugly.
After finally managing to survive, before he could take a breath, the position of the head of such a powerful family was gone. Now that Guo Shouche was forcing him to be an 'enthusiastic audience', no matter who he was, he would not be in a good mood.
What's more, who doesn't know what Guo Shouche is.
Could it be that he comes from Dongxia and is still a good person?
"Look, there's an audience too."
Guo Shouque turned around, smiling as before.
"The venue is dilapidated and I'm not in the mood." Huai Shi said expressionlessly.
"It's easy to solve." Guo Shouche took out an iron whistle from his pocket and blew it. Suddenly the ground stirred and a dwarf jumped out.
The dwarf carried two advertising signs on his head. As soon as he jumped out, he shouted loudly: "Zashiki Construction Company is at your service!"
"Five hours, there, fixed."
Guo Shouche took out two golden things from his sleeves and threw them into the dwarf's arms. The dwarf nodded ecstatically: "Not five hours, just three hours... Do you always need decoration services? Do you have any special requirements? Do you need to apply for a membership?"
"No, get out."
Guo Shouque kicked the dwarf away, showing the arrogant nature of a rich man. Finally, he looked at Huai Shi: "What else do you want?"
Huai Shi glanced at his appearance and slowly shook her head: "Maki has given up on selecting the head of the family."
"Unfortunately, she has not officially quit - and it would have to be announced by her."
Guo Shouque shrugged and said sympathetically: "What's even more regrettable is that she is now entering the developmental stage. After drinking the soup, she will grow rapidly. While sleeping... Well, the whole process will take about a week.
Until then, you are still her agent.
This is the final challenge, Ms. Owaji, what we are fighting, fighting for, and betting on is the wealth of the entire Satomi family, all the assets of the Tateyama Group, and even the royal power of the Anbo Kingdom - I'm afraid, you can't reject. "
"...So, you agree?" Huai Shi looked in Hu Hu's direction.
The tired Kohaku sighed helplessly and took off his helmet: "Sorry, I have already agreed with him before that he will not interfere in the Satomi family's affairs, but I have to listen to him about the Demon Kitchen Competition... To be honest, it's difficult for the old man. The service is very good, if you can't do it, just make a dish to fool me."
"But what if I win?" Huai Shi asked doubtfully, "Wouldn't it be miserable for you?"
? ? ?
Amber, Guo Shouche, and everyone else were stunned on the spot.
Looking at the confused and serious expression.
I don't know if he was talking in his sleep or if he really felt that way.
In the silence, Guo Shouque frowned and came closer, looking at it carefully, as if looking at a strange-looking husky that ran out of some zoo and drooled.
Indicates difficulty in understanding.
"Are you...serious?"
"why not?"
Huai Shi calmly asked: "Would anyone refuse the opportunity to completely crush a self-righteous old man like you and step on his feet? Or will they be fooled by your appearance of being strong on the outside and doing things on the inside?
Mr. Guo Shouque, although I don’t know what happened to you, my intuition tells me... you are far worse than usual now. "
He said: "At least, you can't make me feel scared."
In this way, the weakness under Guo Shouque's mature face was revealed.
The premonition of death still exists, but it is no longer the crazy warning it originally was, but has become a vague warning that keeps changing.
Unlike the feeling of powerlessness he originally felt when facing the endless ocean, now Guo Shouche has become more and more mysterious, like a crawling monster in the fog...
But there is one thing Huai Shi can conclude.
Now, Guo Shouche, who has returned to his youth, is at his weakest!
Guo Shouque said nothing, but narrowed his eyes as if he was irritated. The eternal darkness is boiling in the dark pupils, but wisps of lightning are faintly leaking out...
The long hair hanging on the back of the head was squirming like a snake, and one of the deformed pupils opened one after another, looking at Huai Shi, and then quickly disappeared.
It's like the humanoid membrane covering the abyss is about to be torn, and endless disasters will pour out...
"That's right, Miss Huai Zhi."
The corners of his mouth slowly raised, revealing a pleasant smile: "I am indeed in my weakest state now, which is the most beneficial time for you.
But, Miss Huazhi - if you want to deal with an opponent who has been suffering from a long-term illness and has never recovered, but is just coming back to life, what should you do?
"Delay tactics."
Huai Shi replied without hesitation: "Poison, cast a curse, disturb the balance, directly detonate the patient from the inside, make the huge disaster in your body get out of control, and even make the strong collapse."
So, Guo Shouque laughed, stroking his hands happily and exclaimed: "Very good, very good, Miss Huaizhi, you are really a qualified opponent! No pity, no compassion, pure pursuit of victory or defeat." , It’s really admirable!”
"Then -" He slowly raised his pure black eyes and asked softly: "Do you dare to challenge me?"
Now I am standing here, in the weakest state, the most powerless time.
The kitchen demon who cooked and killed the God of Thunder grinned and asked.
Even if the outcome is very different.
Even this situation is overwhelmingly disadvantageous to you.
——Do you also want to challenge the limit that you cannot reach?
"Of course." Huai Shi looked into his eyes and told him calmly: "Times have changed, old gentleman. The future belongs to young people. It's time for you to get out of the way, isn't it?"
"when?"
"How about tomorrow?"
Huaishi said: "It will be noon tomorrow."
Guo Shouque nodded, "Very good, then, it's settled?"
"It's hard to chase a horse."
Huai Shi glanced at him one last time, supported Maki, and turned to leave.
After walking very far, I can still hear the sharp laughter that enveloped the entire sky, as well as the unspeakable excitement, and... anger!
Huaishi turned the corner and felt her legs go weak.
Drenched in sweat.
I'm afraid that old man was really irritated by him, right? Because he was angry and passionate for a moment, he pretended too much, and as a result, his hatred was too strong.
By the time he realized what he was doing, he had already finished pretending.
But now the deal is done, what to do?
In a panic, Huai Shi raised his head and looked at the two-person-high wall of Li Jian's house, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
What does Motoko Kaizhi's showdown with the cooking demon have to do with me, Huaishi!
——Forget it and run away!
It's the end of the month, do you still have those... red... awesome tickets?
