After Li Bai received the positive news from the great elder, he actually felt that it was indeed the case.
The sense of disobedience felt by being ignored by him was so much that Li Bai felt like he was really acting like a fool during this period.
His Highness Cyril had known about their affairs for a long time, and even reminded him before, but he failed to catch it at all.
It is definitely impossible not to regret it, after all, it took so long...
It has been at least half a year since Qiao Nan appeared. She has met him at least three times, and they actually...
He was terribly regretful.
Seeing Li Bai's look, the elder just raised his lips and smiled, "Are you saying that you never recognized him when you saw him before?"
This is actually a bit funny.
The entire orc clan knows how dedicated Li Bai is to this priest.
Li Bai was brought up by the priest, and Li Bai's rise to the top is inseparable from Qiao Nan.
For Li Bai, Qiao Nan is his relative, his backer, and even his solid backing. With him around, Li Bai can feel much more relaxed.
Previously, the high priest entered the cave to retreat alone. It was said to the outside world that he was in retreat, but in fact everyone was guessing that the high priest was actually dead and was killed by Li Bai.
He felt that Qiao Nan was blocking his way.
In order to consolidate his power, Li Bai did not tell anyone else. Even if someone guessed it, they would just deny it.
At first, when the great elder saw Qiao Nan, it was just an uncertain test, but the reaction Qiao Nan gave him confirmed his suspicion.
That is indeed the high priest.
After confirming the opponent's identity, the Great Elder not only felt no fear, but also felt that this was an opportunity for the orcs.
Since Qiao Nan is a priest of the orc tribe, he is also a member of the orc tribe. He must have given preferential treatment to his disciples, otherwise he could have come with Li Bai?
At first, when everyone knew that Li Bai wanted to seek help from the demons, everyone disagreed. They felt that the demons were too greedy and would definitely cause the orcs to bleed, or even annex the orcs.
Unfortunately, there is no other way now except asking the demons for help.
It is definitely impossible for the human race. They are hostile now. The dragon race is on the side of the demon race, and so is the sea race. Only the elves are not.
However, the problem now is that even if they want to ask the elves for help, the elves will not give them a chance.
The elves are now neutral, and they love peace. As long as it doesn't hit them on the head, they won't bother to help.
And another crucial point is that their recipes are different.
The elves are vegetarians and are not very friendly to anyone who eats meat, especially the orcs who like to eat animals, and they don't look good on them.
I won't stop them, I just can't see through it.
kill?
Unless necessary, the elves would be even more unwilling.
Celestial clan?
They couldn't contact them at all. After all the calculations, it seemed that only the demons were left. After all, compared to the humans, the demons were more...
It's just a general among the dwarves.
Who would have thought that this unwilling request for help would turn out like this!
Qiao Nan, the demon king of the demon clan, turned out to be the long-lost high priest of their orc clan!
What does this mean?
This shows that even if the orcs are controlled by the demons, they will not do anything to the orcs, and will even support the orcs!
This is a huge good thing for the orcs.
The Great Elder seemed to have forgotten about the quarrel he had with Qiao Nan in the past, openly and secretly. He thought Qiao Nan looked so good-looking, and even thought he was cute when he cursed.
Li Bai didn't know that the great elder thought so. He and the great elder had different concerns.
He focused on Qiao Nan himself, not the entire orc clan.
At first, Li Bai was immersed in the news of Qiao Nan's return, but after the joy, what he cared about became the difficulties he faced.
Norman...does he also like the priest?
"The priest should still have memories, but he may not be willing to admit it now. For the sake of the entire orc tribe, you have to keep him. This is an opportunity for the orc tribe to rise." The great elder said slowly: "For the human race,
, the demons are not suitable for survival, but for us orcs, it is a good place."
Li Bai understood the hidden meaning of his words.
He actually cared about the territory of the demon clan.
"That's a place belonging to the demon clan and has nothing to do with us orcs."
"Just because the Demon King is the priest of our orc tribe, isn't that enough?"
"The demons are demons, and the orcs are orcs. Even if he is the priest, the empire he has conquered in the demons has nothing to do with us." Li Bai emphasized.
He felt that what the great elder did was very unethical.
Qiao Nan has now made it clear that he is unwilling to return to the orcs, and he is only willing to come back to help for his own sake.
He prefers the demons to the orcs. Since Qiao Nan wants to cut ties with the orcs, they can't use this to threaten him.
Li Bai knew Qiao Nan's temper very well.
He could naturally see that Qiao Nan did not want to have anything to do with the orcs, or even himself. If it were not for the old relationship, Qiao Nan would not have come to help at all, and would have been more happy to watch the show on the wall and reap the benefits.
Li Bai didn't want to cause too much embarrassment, nor did he want to embarrass Qiao Nan, so even going to Qiao Nan was the next best thing.
"If you don't ask, how would he know? How do you know that he is unwilling?" The great elder still insisted on his opinion: "This is a rare opportunity for the orcs!"
"That's enough! I don't agree!" Li Bai slammed the table angrily, "Even if the orcs are not that good now, that's not the reason for you to do this. I won't agree. I hope you won't go find him either!
If you let me know, I will never let you go."
Li Bai gasped angrily.
The great elder took too much control, and his hands were so long that he even reached out to the management.
In the past, he could not move due to his status, but now he has reached his bottom line and can no longer keep him.
His existence has threatened his own status.
Li Bai lifted the table and left, leaving only the great elder here.
The shadow of Li Bai's departure still remained in the Great Elder's eyes, and he could see his anger and coldness.
He wanted to take action on himself.
----------------------------------------
After Li Bai left angrily, he didn't even know where he was going.
He stood outside, even wanting to change back to his original shape and run wildly under the moonlight to relieve the pressure.
But no.
He is the king now and cannot do anything inconsistent with his status as a king.
"It seems that you are very troubled now."
Barr, who was holding the cat, appeared at some point. He leaned against a pillar and said lazily, "Tell me about it? Maybe I can solve your troubles."
"It's nothing." When Li Bai saw Barr, he immediately returned to his normal appearance, unable to see the fragile look he had just shown.
But his previous hesitation was still noticed by Barr: "It's normal for children to be confused."
Barr stood up straight, "If it's the question I'm thinking about, it's better to ask it directly. If you hold it back now, he won't know, and you'll only hurt yourself."
Li Bai fell into deep thought.
Maybe what Barr said was right, but he didn't want to cause trouble to the priest.
It's better not to bother him yourself.
"No need." Li Bai strengthened his belief, "I can handle it myself."
It's true.
Barr clicked his tongue.
I originally wanted to deceive him, but I didn't expect him to be so upright, which directly confirmed my guess.
Isn't this strange?
Your Majesty is indeed the priest of the orc tribe... Not only did Li Bai recognize it, but His Majesty also obviously knew it, but why didn't His Majesty admit it?
Or maybe he doesn't like the orcs, but if he doesn't, why would he come to help?
When Li Bai and the previous leaders came over, they didn't see any reaction from His Majesty and Amos.
...no, maybe...
Barr thought of Cyril.
It seemed that Cyril had some reaction, but Cyril's reaction was really intriguing.
He was also a bit subtle with His Majesty, as if he were his own child.
Barr was puzzled.
Based on the status of the priest in the clan, only he can say that he is the high priest of the orc clan, and these people of the orc clan will definitely bow to His Majesty.
By that time, wouldn't it be easy for them to control the orcs?
He was extremely curious, but unfortunately Qiao Nan would never tell him the answer. Even if he had questions, he could only keep them in his stomach.
I don’t know if Master Amos knows about it, but he knows anyway, as long as he takes precautions and doesn’t get abducted by the orcs.
Soon, Barr had no time to worry.
Li Ling and the others launched an attack.
Taking advantage of the fact that they had just arrived, Li Ling and Norman decided to attack at this time after discussion.
They probably felt that Qiao Nan and the others had just arrived and needed some time to adapt, so rushing to fight might catch them off guard.
As the saying goes, it kills you when you are sick. When fighting, of course, you should look for the time when your opponent is most uncomfortable.
When the genius was bright, a small-scale battle broke out at the border between Li Bai and Li Ling. The two sides refused to give in to each other, and the smell of violence was everywhere.
There was no particularly big action, but the harassment continued.
Qiao Nan knew that this was Norman's plan, so with the idea of attacking Norman, Qiao Nan circled several circles on the map and signaled Li Bai to dispatch troops to these places.
Li Bai understood immediately
"They are too hasty." Barr had already changed into a military uniform, "But, Your Majesty, I have something to ask."
"What?" Qiao Nan didn't even look back.
"That is, what is your relationship with Master Amos?"
Barr secretly observed Li Bai for two days and found that Li Bai seemed to be interested in His Majesty. However, Barr remembered the rumors about Amos and His Majesty in their demon castle. Barr was really curious about it. Your Majesty.
Who will you choose next?
He supported himself, but he also understood that he had only unrequited love, and His Majesty would never like him, so he never expressed it, and no one even knew that he was interested in His Majesty.
Among all the demons, His Majesty seems to only treat Amos-sama in a different light.
There are also rumors that His Majesty and Lord Amos are having an affair, and the two are even a little bit ambiguous. Previously, Amos often stayed in His Majesty's room and would change clothes every day when he came out.
There's nothing to say about this, but... there are other men!
"It's just a colleague. What's wrong?" Qiao Nan paused when he heard the name. Apparently he thought of something. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Barr: "What, did someone say something in your ear?"
"That's not true, I'm just a little curious." Barr quickly shook his head.
"But you know Lord Amos's heart..."
"I know." Qiao Nan did not deny it. "Because I know, there is no possibility of further development. It is already good to keep it as it is now."
Barr didn't know what to say for a moment.
I don’t know whether I should feel sorry for Amos.
"It's mainly because of the office romance. It would be so embarrassing if we broke up."
"Then your Majesty likes Galadriel? Or Bo Saisi? Neither of them..." Baal said two more names casually.
"What are they?" Qiao Nan raised his lips at Barr, the threat clearly evident.
He's not interested in anyone, so this assumption simply doesn't hold.
Barr shuddered subconsciously and closed his mouth.
