Chapter 215 Orobas's Concerns
The demon god Orobasi angered Zhu Yuncheng two years ago, so he was given to Huahua for training. After two years, he has made some achievements.
Soon, Orobas, with white hair, purple eyes and white clothes, came in. He gave Zhu Yuncheng a flattering smile and said, "Long live the Human King."
"You have been trained under Hua Hua for two years. I saw that she sent me a report about you and she did a good job." Zhu Yuncheng said, "Now I have a task for you."
Orobasi thought to himself, "Are they going to send me to the Xumi region?"
Two days ago, it knew that its immediate superior Hua Hua was sent to the Xumi area. Not long ago, it sensed the aura of the Xumi Demon God Daci Tree King coming to Guili. Oropas had a premonition that something had happened in Xumi.
"Go to Xumi and investigate the origins of the fragrant grass and charming incense. Find out who planted them and report everything to me."
Sure enough, when hearing Zhu Yuncheng's order, Orobasi's face fell: "Long live the Human King, I am the Human King Guard, not Shen Bujue. Shouldn't Shen Bujue do this?"
"Shen Bujue is just like the Xumi people, they are all human beings." Zhu Yuncheng's tone became a little cold, "As a demon god, you go and investigate. If you do well, you will be the leader of the new generation of Shen Bujue. If you don't do well, humph!"
Seeing Zhu Yuncheng's words, Oropas knew that he had no way to refuse and could only bow respectfully and retreat.
Just after leaving the Human King's Palace, Oropas was worrying about what to do about this matter, when he suddenly saw his boss Huahua standing in a dark corner looking at him.
Orobas looked around and saw no one, so he stepped forward and said, "Boss Huahua."
Hua Hua's mouth twitched: "Don't call me boss. When you complete the tasks entrusted by the Human King, you will be the new leader of Shen Bujue, and your status will be the same as mine."
"That being said, what should I do?" Oropus was distressed. "Xumi is not Guili, and the members of Shenbujue are all human. I can't count on them."
"Idiot!" Hua Hua said with a straight face, "So what if the members of Shenbujue are all human? It is human beings who can investigate this matter. After all, Mi Mi Xiang is to be sold to humans. Elemental life will not absorb that stuff. Listen to me, after you go to Xumi, first......"
Listening to Huahua's plan, Oropas' eyes became brighter and brighter: "Good plan!"
After Huahua finished speaking, she slapped Orobas on the head without warning: "Have you forgotten what I said to you on the first day you came to me?"
Orobas covered his head, not looking like a demon at all, and said aggrievedly: "Of course I remember. You said that the Human King Guards are the eyes of the Human King. Since they are the eyes, they must be loyal. We must do whatever the Human King wants us to do, and no questioning is allowed."
"Then why did you refuse just now?" Hua Hua asked back.
Oropus was speechless and kept his head down.
"Since the Human King has handed you over to me, it shows that he trusts you." Hua Hua said, "You don't have to hide it anymore. You are a good demon god, but you are pretending to be a grandson. You were once enemies with Emperor Guili, but Inazuma's lightning sisters, the Xumi Great Compassion Tree King, and the Flower God were all enemies with Emperor Guili. Aren't they entrusted with important tasks by the Human King now?"
Orobas was silent.
"I've already said it. It's your business what you think." Hua Hua turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
Oropus stood alone in the sun, letting it shine on him. After a long while, he smiled bitterly and said, "I really overthink it."
Because he once had a hostile relationship with Guili, Oropas came to Guili after being sealed by Zhu Yuncheng. He was afraid that the Emperor or other elemental life forms would find a reason to kill him, so he usually wanted to hide his head in his chest. Therefore, he stayed in the small room prepared for him by Zhu Yuncheng and never went out of the front door.
But at the same time, Oropas was a person who could not stand loneliness, so he took a lot of books to read in the room, and finally he came up with the idea of writing a novel.
When the furious Zhu Yuncheng broke in, Oropas said "I'm going to die" the first thing he did, and only thought of begging for mercy the second time, which was enough to show the fear in Oropas' heart.
But now, following Hua Hua's words, it realized that Zhu Yuncheng had never taken what he had done in the past to heart, and the same was true for the Emperor and those immortals.
----
"How did it react after you said that?"
In the Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yuncheng asked after hearing Hua Hua's report.
"A look of enlightenment appeared in its eyes. Perhaps it will take some time for it to figure it out," Hua Hua said.
"It's good that it can figure it out. Being a demon god but not working for Guili, hiding in the room all day writing that crappy novel is simply a waste of talent." Zhu Yuncheng waved his hand, motioning Hua Hua to go down, while he continued to handle government affairs.
Just when Oropas was heading to Sumeru alone, the flower god's follower, the spirit Lilupal, had returned from the desert area.
"Lord Flower God, the Ram King planted the fragrant grass at the edge of the rain forest. The Crocodile King and the Ibis King were responsible for refining the charming incense. Benu and Sfenhe were responsible for handing it over to the people of the Red King to sell in the rain forest."
After listening to Lilupal's words, the flower god was shocked: the tree king's premonition was correct, and the fragrant grass was indeed made by the seven wise monks under the command of the red king.
"Why are they doing this?" asked the flower god anxiously.
"Hermanubis told me that they were short of money," Lilupal said. "The desert lacks water and food, and Mora needs to buy them from outside. However, the tree king looks down on them and gives them very few resources, so they have no choice but to do this."
"Necessarily? What a helpless choice!" The Flower God was so angry that he laughed. "They didn't even think about why the Tree King gave them resources. After the death of the Red King, they refused to even submit. They gathered a group of elemental life forms and humans and plunged into the desert, refusing to show submission to the Tree King. The Tree King was gentle and thought about the hard work of the humans who followed them, so he gave them supplies every year."
The Flower God was getting angrier as he spoke: "In the end, instead of being grateful, they felt that it was too little. I don't believe they wanted to make something that would harm people. They didn't know the Tree King's orders, they just missed the Red King!"
As she said this, sadness also appeared on the face of the Flower Goddess. In fact, in a sense, this matter was her fault. The Seven Wise Monks of the Desert missed the Red King, and so did she. After all, the Red King was her lover.
If not for this, she would not have persuaded the Tree King not to tell Zhu Yuncheng about the Seven Sage Monks' disobedience. However, she did not expect that her momentary persuasion would cause such a great disaster.
"Should I protect them?" The flower god closed his eyes and said to himself.
After a while, she opened her eyes again and said, "Lilupar, come up."
