CHAPTER 847: CHAPTER 388: RUTHLESS AND DECISIVE
In the tavern, the voices of the demons rose and fell, lacking order but full of momentum.
Fang Yu squinted his eyes, feeling the flattery of these underlings, and felt pretty good about it.
At least it was better than being suppressed by the Hall Masters in the Foolish Underworld.
Being a demon means freedom, close the door, and you’re the Mountain King; just keep playing music and dancing, and it’s all good.
"Diao Deyi, the [Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon] secretly recruited several new demons into the organization and just tried to make a move against us!"
Che Linfang bluntly pointed at those guys holding thick ropes.
[Zao Wuwei: 5013/5013.]
[Fei Qing: 5842/5842.]
[Ding Shangfang: 3619/3619.]
[Li Silu: 3120/3120.]
[Lu Luo: 2383/2383.]
[Cun Yiyu: 2461/2461.]
...
With one glance, except for the two with five thousand blood who were worth something, the others were just small roles with about three thousand or two thousand blood.
Where did this [Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon] find these worthless recruits, and they think they can oppose me?
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes.
"Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon, what is the meaning of this? These new faces, did you let them in?"
Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon immediately flattered, "Blood Demon, I was just afraid you’d be tired, thinking I could handle such a trivial matter, so there was no need to disturb you."
Under someone else’s roof, you have no choice but to lower your head.
Fang Yu’s unknown backer made Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon very apprehensive; it was impossible to openly oppose him, so he could only look for opportunities to climb up behind his back.
"But from what I heard from Che Linfang, she was unaware of this. The others seemed unaware of these people joining, too."
Fang Yu said lightly.
So many people surrounding these new demon faces, the stance was self-evident.
"Blood Demon, you shouldn’t speak carelessly; I reported to someone before letting them in!"
Saying this, Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon looked at those guys she had previously coaxed to stand with her.
But at this moment, those people turned their faces away, completely ignoring her.
Fang Yu took all of this in, silent, with only a cold snort.
"Considering this your first offense, we’ll let it go this time. Next time, if you want to recruit someone, ask Che Linfang first, understood?"
This was said to Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon and the others present as well.
Che Linfang immediately perked up, her face excited, silently retreating behind Fang Yu, half-closing her eyes, looking at the others, clearly showing the second-in-command position in the group.
In any TV drama, she would be the old nanny or the eunuch-like role positioning.
But Che Linfang herself seemed quite happy, after all, with Fang Yu’s words, her position in the group, one person under, but over the masses, was basically confirmed.
Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon was initially puzzled hearing Fang Yu willing to let her go, followed by a feeling of disdain.
Little demon is just a little demon, even having just become Demon Foot, the methods and ability still far behind, hesitating over small matters, not even daring to punish her!
Without receiving any punishment, Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon’s mind began to calculate the next steps, to split the demons in the team, garnering more support for herself.
Yet the next second, Fang Yu said.
"As for those new faces you’ve recruited, they don’t need to leave the tavern alive. Bring them all here, I’ll execute them personally."
What, what?!
Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon was dumbstruck on the spot.
She even doubted if she heard wrong.
These confidants, though they were brought in for preliminary probing, were none other than loyal followers who had been with her for years.
She even selected powerful officers when choosing manpower, to avoid conflict situations where the [Crimson Hammer Giant Ape Spirit] and other powerful demon tails on Blood Demon’s side would be overwhelming.
And now, Blood Demon wants to execute her followings?
Seeing the others already taking control, targeting to seize these people, Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon hurriedly spoke.
"Lord Blood Demon! Isn’t this... inappropriate?"
Fang Yu glanced at her sideways.
"What is inappropriate?"
"These demons, though joined without your permission, are powerful, and officially recruiting them is not too late now?"
After all, they represent formidable battle power! Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon didn’t believe Blood Demon would really kill them!
But unexpectedly, Blood Demon just said lightly.
"Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon, you were once standing at the height of Demon Foot, how could you not understand such a principle. The strength of a demon, often isn’t the most important thing. What matters is whether that demon is truly loyal."
Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon understood!
How could she not!
It was because she understood this principle that she managed to coax these loyal underlings here as vanguards, to make the first probe.
Without this loyalty, why would someone risk following her?
Seeing those underlings giving her questioning or hesitant looks, Gui Yuan Great Moth Demon was secretly anxious, hurriedly said again.
"Lord Blood Demon! This time, it’s my mistake, please spare these little demons for now, since I recruited them, I will supervise them, if anything goes wrong, I will take full responsibility!"
This statement almost bore all the responsibility, heard, those underlings’ eyes moistened with emotion.
However...
"Good, it’s nice that you realize your mistake, speaking of which, this is the first time I’ve heard you call me Lord Blood Demon. The title of ’Lord’ is very critical, sometimes, knowing one’s status can save your life."
