Chapter 151: Qingqiu Fox King, in a Dilemma

Qingqiu Mountain.

The atmosphere in the cave of Green Fox King Hu Tianjiu was oppressive and heavy, as if shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds.

At this moment, Hu Tianjiu was sitting on a throne carved from sapphire. His green fur shone with a mysterious luster under the weak light in the cave.

Below him, three fox demon elders sat on both sides. Their expressions were also solemn, and they seemed to be carrying a heavy burden.

"Elders."

Hu Tianjiu broke the silence, his voice low and majestic.

"A few days ago, the envoy of the Black Eagle Demon King came to Qingqiu and brought shocking news. The tribute requested this time has more than doubled compared to previous years! This is simply a lion's mouth. !”

Having said this, Hu Tianjiu couldn't help but slap the armrest heavily, with a flash of anger in his eyes.

He continued: "Not only that, they also asked Qingqiu for thirty fox men and fox women who had just grown up, plus three thousand-year elixirs, ten hundred-year elixirs, and ten thousand demon stones! Such harsh conditions are undoubtedly It is a huge oppression and provocation to our Qingqiu.”

After speaking, Hu Tianjiu's eyes slowly swept across the three elders present, his eyes full of expectation and inquiry.

After hearing Hu Tianjiu's words, the three old-looking elders of the Qinghu tribe all frowned, and the wrinkles on their faces seemed to be a little deeper.

They looked at each other and saw deep worry and helplessness in each other's eyes.

At this time, Hu Xian, the great elder of the Qinghu tribe, coughed lightly and took the lead in making suggestions:

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this matter may not be rectified. The Black Eagle King has always been domineering and arrogant, and his power is even more dominant in Montenegro. If we directly reject his request, I am afraid it will attract his thunder. At that time, we in Qingqiu may face the disaster of annihilation.

The Black Eagle King is one of the nine demon kings in the Black Mountain. He has more than 10,000 little demons under his command. We, Qingqiu, are so weak that we cannot afford to offend him, so I think it’s better to just hand it over! If these tributes are not paid and the Black Eagle King is angered, Qingqiu may be wiped out. "

Hearing this, the second elder Hu Fangyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a hint of anger.

"Your Majesty, I cannot pay this batch of tributes. If I do it this time, with the insatiable appetite of the Black Eagle King, I am afraid that the tributes demanded will be doubled next time. In this way, all the heritage of my Qingqiu Mountain will be dedicated to the Black Eagle King. The king of eagles, when will he grow up?"

"Elder Hu, what do you mean by this? Do you want my Qingqiu lineage to be wiped out? In the entire Qingqiu, only the king is in the mysterious demon realm. The Black Eagle King can destroy me, Qingqiu, with the power of a demon. If you don’t pay, why don’t you wait for the Black Eagle King to knock on your door and ask for it in person?”

The first elder Hu Xian immediately retorted and disagreed with the second elder Hu Fangyuan's proposal.

Seeing Hu Xian and Hu Fangyuan arguing, Hu Tianjiu waved his hand to stop it and told the two elders to discuss it carefully and not to get angry and hurt the harmony.

After stopping the two elders from continuing to quarrel, Hu Fangyuan then looked at the third elder Hu Yang.

"Third Elder, what do you think of this matter?"

Hearing this, Third Elder Hu Yang showed a trace of contemplation on his face, and after thinking for a moment, he replied.

"Your Majesty, I think that instead of giving these tributes to Black Eagle, it is better to find a more powerful and demanding backer. After all, this Black Eagle has forced me, Qingqiu, to pay tribute twice in the past year. It is really greedy and its appetite is getting bigger and bigger. The bigger it gets, it will be difficult for Qingqiu to develop at this rate, and it will always be suppressed.”

Hearing this, Hu Tianjiu's eyes flashed, and he felt that this proposal was much more reliable than the previous two elders' proposals.

"Then the third elder thinks that among the nine demon kings in the Black Mountains, who has a more upright name? And is trustworthy?"

After finishing speaking, Hu Tianjiu looked at the First Elder Hu Xian and the Second Elder Hu Fangyuan.

"Two of you, I think the third elder's proposal is good. If you have a suitable candidate in mind, you can also tell me. I will send the little demon to contact you when the time comes."

After hearing Hu Tianjiu's inquiry, the three elders lowered their eyebrows and fell into deep thought.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Spiritual Deer Demon King of Minglu Mountain has a good reputation among the nine demon kings in Black Mountain. He is a reputable earth demon king. Your Majesty, you might as well send the little demon to contact me and express my wishes to Qingqiu Mountain. Sincerity.”

The third elder, Hu Yang, thought for a while and then suggested.

Hearing this, Hu Tianjiu nodded slightly and looked at the remaining two elders.

"First Elder, Second Elder, what do you think of the Third Elder's proposal? If you have any ideas, you can put them forward and discuss them together."

The first elder and the second elder seemed to agree with the choice proposed by Hu Yang, and responded in unison.

"Your Majesty, I think the Third Elder's suggestion is good. The Linglu Demon King is indeed quite famous among the nine demon kings in Black Mountain. Your Majesty, you might as well take the initiative to show your kindness instead of choosing a greedy Black Eagle Earth Demon. It is better to choose an honest and virtuous demon king to pay tribute to the king.”

Seeing that the three elders highly praised Linglu Demon King and had unanimous opinions, Hu Tianjiu looked solemnly and then gave instructions.

"Third Elder, in order to show the sincerity of Qingqiu Mountain, I ask you to take my king's order and go to Linglu Mountain in person to express my Qingqiu demands to Linglu Demon King."

Hearing this, the third elder straightened his body and immediately bowed slightly to answer.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely bring my sincerity from Qingqiu Mountain and do my best to facilitate this matter."

As soon as he finished speaking, Third Elder Hu Yang's body flashed with demonic light, and he immediately flew out of the cave.

After Hu Yang left, Hu Tianjiu sighed softly, with a trace of helplessness flashing on his face. He seemed to be very guilty about Qingqiu's current situation. If it weren't for his lack of cultivation strength, he would have no say in this Black Mountain, and Qingqiu could only be reduced to The other vassals of the demon king's strength use this to protect themselves, which is really unworthy of Qingqiu ancestors.

"Two elders, please wait and select the spiritual objects needed to pay tribute! In case the Linglu King does not accept my Qingqiu vassal request, we should be prepared to avoid being offended when it is too late to prepare the tribute. The Black Eagle King brings trouble for nothing."

Hearing this, the two elders of the Fox Clan from Qingqiu Mountain immediately responded respectfully and were about to turn around and leave to prepare the tribute to King Black Eagle.

At this moment, a transformed fox demon ran in with a panicked expression and fell in front of Hu Tianjiu with a panicked look on his face.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad is going to happen. A group of monsters from elsewhere are knocking on our door. They are attacking Qingqiu under the banner of a banner. Please go out and have a look!"

The fox demon reported in panic.

Hearing this, Hu Jiutian's expression changed and he immediately stood up from his seat with a swish sound.

"What did you say?"

The fox demon thought that his king had not heard clearly, so he took a breath and explained again.

"Your Majesty, a group of monsters suddenly came at the foot of the mountain. Without any explanation, they started attacking my mountain-protecting monster array in Qingqiu. Go and have a look."

Hu Tianjiu was shocked when he heard this and thought to himself.

Could it be that the Black Eagle King heard that my Qingqiu fox demon lineage wanted to seek protection from the Linglu King and was unwilling to pay tribute to him, so he sent his monsters to attack? This news was too good. As soon as the third elder left the house, the black eagle queen arrived.

Thinking of this, Hu Tianjiu forced himself to calm down and ordered with a solemn expression.

"Let's go, lead the way quickly, I will go and see what is going on."

After saying this, Hu Tianjiu led the two Qingqiu elders and immediately flew out of the cave and ran towards the foot of the mountain.
