Chapter 586 Confrontation
"You are the cat and dog, your whole family is cat and dog!"
"Open your eyes and look carefully! The one standing in front of you is the elder of the Wanjian Sect..."
A hot-tempered disciple of the Wanjian Sect stood up and retorted to the Demon King's attendant.
"So he is just a small elder, can he make the decision? Where is your sect leader? Let him speak out!"
The Demon King's attendant looked Xiao Jian up and down, his tone full of disdain, but the Demon King behind him remained calm.
"You are a three-legged toad, and you dare to look down on our Ten Thousand Sword Sect elders? Do you believe that I can kill you with one sword?"
How could the disciples of Wanjian Sect remain indifferent when their elder was insulted? They immediately fought back.
"Ignorant human, I am a noble golden cicada, not the toad you are talking about. If you still want to fight, I will fight you to the end!"
The Golden Cicada attendant was seen standing on one leg in the air, holding a peculiarly shaped fork in his hand, pointing directly at the disciple who had just spoken.
"Ha! I'm not afraid of you!"
"There's no need for you to deal with such a small fry, just leave it to me."
Upon hearing this, the other disciples also drew their weapons, and the scene was soon drowned out by shouting and cursing.
During this period, the Demon King opposite Xiao Jianhe did not say a word, but was silently examining the other party.
A moment later, just when the two sides were about to engage in battle, they were stopped in time by the two.
"My name is Xiao Jian, and I am currently the person in charge of Binhai City. Who are you?"
Xiao Jian naturally would not take part in the arguments among the younger brothers, as that would only lower his own status, so he said this while looking at the Demon King opposite him.
"I am the Lord of the East Sea, the Demon Emperor Long Xin."
Long Xin's answer was brief, but it was enough to surprise the humans present.
"What's your purpose? Do you want to break the fragile balance between the two races and start a war between them?"
Xiao Jian suppressed his inner throbbing, he knew that he was no match for the opponent, all he could do now was to delay time as much as possible.
"Humph! If we talk about breaking the balance, it was you despicable humans who broke it first!"
Long Xin snorted coldly, and before Xiao Jian could speak, he continued.
"You were the first to break the rules and kidnap my son, the prince of the East China Sea Dragon Clan, Long Hao."
"We arrested your son? You can't just say that. You can't just say whatever you say. Where's the evidence?"
Xiao Jian's heart skipped a beat and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.
He also knew about the recent rumors about the Sirens. He thought it was just a rumor with no basis, but he didn't expect it to be true.
What surprised him even more was that the captured demon general had another special identity.
"You want evidence? This is the most powerful evidence!"
Long Xin pointed at Jin Chan next to him, his tone filled with anger.
He had been paying attention to Xiao Jian the whole time. Although the surprise in Xiao Jian's eyes just now was brief, he still noticed it.
This further proves that the news that Long Hao was abducted by humans is not groundless.
"Despicable human race, do you still want to deny it?"
"I am the attendant of Prince Long Hao. I saw everything you did with my own eyes."
"Quickly release His Royal Highness, otherwise my demon army will destroy Binhai City."
Next, Jin Chan vividly recounted to everyone the specific circumstances when Long Hao was captured.
Finally, it even took out a portrait, which was a drawing of the 'suspect' based on its memory.
"Look, this is the man who took away His Royal Highness the Prince."
Unfortunately, the painting is too abstract, making it impossible to tell who the person in the painting is.
However, combined with previous rumors, the fact that Long Hao was arrested is probably a confirmed fact.
I don’t know which big boss did this, but it really made things difficult for Xiao Jian, the lord of Binhai City.
"My patience is limited. I will give you two choices now."
"Either release my son and hand over this man, or I will destroy Binhai City, rescue my son and catch this man."
Long Xin seemed to be giving Binhai City an ultimatum, because no one would think that this was just a simple threat.
In fact, Long Hao is not the most respected prince in the dragon clan. This is why Long Xin took action only after he had been missing for so many days.
But this is also a matter of face. If he cannot handle it properly, his prestige among the Siren clan will definitely decline, thus affecting his ruling position.
"You are coming to me just for this portrait. Isn't that too hasty of you, sir?"
Xiao Jian felt bitter. Not to mention that he didn't know who did it, even if he knew, he couldn't tell Long Xin.
If he really dared to sell out his own people to the demon clan, he would inevitably be labeled a traitor.
Therefore, this issue cannot be resolved peacefully at all, and war is inevitable.
Long Xin was too lazy to explain. He glanced at the golden cicada and signaled it to speak.
"There are more than one human city near the East China Sea, your Binhai City. Do you think we will easily send out troops without any clues?"
"Just yesterday, I saw with my own eyes that the people who took away His Royal Highness the Prince finally entered Binhai City."
In recent days, the sirens have never given up looking for Long Hao. It was during the most recent operation that Jin Chan accidentally discovered the existence of Xiaoyaozi.
Although its painting skills are average, fortunately its memory is good and it recognized Xiaoyaozi at a glance.
At that time, it did not act rashly and only dared to watch from afar, because Jin Chan was very clear about the gap in strength between itself and Xiaoyaozi.
If it is not careful, not only will it fail to find the prince, but it might even lose its own life.
"If you want to start a war, then go ahead!"
Xiao Jian's other hand reached for the ring, ready to fight.
"I can sense that there are still several powerful human beings in Binhai City. I believe that the person who took Hao'er away must be hiding among them."
“So Elder Xiao, if you don’t want to implicate other people in Binhai City, you should let these strong men speak out!”
However, Long Xin did not start a fight as Xiao Jian had imagined. He just looked towards a certain place in the city meaningfully.
"There are still strong people?"
Xiao Jian was stunned at first, then he used his spiritual sense to scan the direction where Long Xin was looking, and sure enough, he could vaguely sense the presence of several powerful auras.
Anyone who can be called a strong man by Long Xin must be no worse than him in cultivation.
Only then did Xiao Jian feel relieved. It turned out that Long Xin was willing to reason with him not because he didn't want to fight, but because he was afraid of him.
"I just don't know which big guys are coming to Binhai City this time?"
Xiao Jian thought to himself, although he also sensed some familiar auras, they were all very weak and definitely not the leader of their Wanjian Sect.
"It's my turn!"
After Xiaoyaozi finished the last cup of tea, he stood up slowly and said.
Having been spied on several times in a row, not only Xiaoyaozi, but also several other big guys in the backyard, had noticed something.
