Chapter 287 The disaster is coming
Mo Qingshan also had this concern, but he had no intention of rebelling for the time being.
If this Demon Spirit Crystal was dug out from their Mo family's mine, he and his father Mo would probably send most of it to the Demon King's Palace.
But this was dug out from the mine that had long been promised to Leng Zhuxin, and he didn't want to give away his sister's things.
This damage is not to the Mo family's interests, but to his sister's.
Thinking of this, Mo Qingshan looked at Jiang Baimo and said, “This Demonic Spirit Crystal is rare, and our Mo family cannot sell it under our own name.
Isn't the Shi family's property going to be handed over to you? Let your senior brother come forward and take it over.
There is an auction house among the Shi family’s properties that can be used just as it should.
If the devil asks, just say that you got some by chance and put them all up for auction.
Of course, I have to send a few pieces to the Demon King's Palace as a token of my appreciation.
Given the devil's character, he would not have any thoughts about an unknown person.
As long as the business is small and has no impact on his status, he usually won't spend much time on it."
Mo Qingshan was quite familiar with the Demon King's temperament and quickly came up with an idea.
Jiang Baimo and Leng Zhuxin had no objection to this.
……
The magic crystal mine had been completely mined. The third elder asked Leng Zhuxin and others to crush the teleportation jade token and return to the base first. He stayed in the mine and used the mountain-moving skill to fill the hollowed-out mine.
The third elder made a final check and confirmed that there was no problem before completely cleaning up all traces of the Mo family's presence, removing the barrier and returning to the base.
Although they dug for more than a week, the top-quality magic crystals they found were all used for cultivation.
So there was no fatigue on everyone's face, only excitement.
Many people's cultivation has broken through one or two levels.
If I stay in the Great Wilderness Mountain for too long, I’m afraid the Demon King’s City will become suspicious.
After Mo Qingshan and his companions returned to the base, they did not stay long and quickly took the teleportation array back to the Mo family.
As soon as they came back, Father Mo went to the Demon King's Palace.
When the Demon King learned that the Shi family was secretly mining magic crystal ore, he became furious.
The Demon King had already been suspicious of the Shi family because of their reluctance to let Shi Mei marry the Fifth Prince and because of her sudden death for no apparent reason.
During the few days that Leng Zhu was away from the Demon King City, Shi Fei also caused a lot of trouble.
Because of Shi Mei's death, Shi Fei became more mature.
Knowing that he was no match for Shi Zhongkui and the elders of the Shi family, he disguised himself after returning to the Shi family.
In order to avoid Shi Zhongkui's suspicion, he pretended to go find Shi Mei.
In fact, he spread the news that Shi Mei was killed by Shi Zhongkui, and he also spread the news about the demon of the charmed body without any fear of affecting him.
When Leng Zhuxin and his companions returned to the Demon King's City, rumors had already been fermenting in the Demon King's City for several days.
Some of it also reached the ears of the Demon King.
With Shi Fei's help, when the Demon King heard Mo's father say that the Shi family was suspected of secretly mining magic crystal mines in the Great Wilderness Mountain, he sent out the demon generals and demon soldiers without hesitation.
Mo Qingshan brought the demon general to the Shi family's stronghold in the Great Wilderness Mountain.
After confirming that they were indeed mining magic crystal ore, they immediately arrested everyone.
Father Mo pleaded for mercy on behalf of the demon slaves who were oppressed by the Shi family, so the demon general did not make things difficult for those demon slaves. He just took them back to the Demon King's City together with the Shi family members stationed here.
The prison in the Demon King's City has not been used for a long time. It was only reopened this time because of the Shi family incident.
There were many spineless people among the Shi family members stationed in the Great Wilderness Mountain who were responsible for guarding the demon slaves. They didn't even torture them to extract confessions. They just used torture instruments to make them give up Shi Zhongkui.
They didn't know about the existence of Pavilion Master Qin, but they knew that the Qin family had a share of the magic crystal mine, and that a portion would be sent to the slums on the west side of Demon King City every month.
Soon, their confessions were presented before the devil.
After struggling for several days, Shi Fei finally made a decision that was sorry for the Shi family and Shi Zhongkui, but worthy of himself, his sister and his mother.
By some strange coincidence he saved his life.
Shi Fei stopped Grandmother Mo who was returning from the Demon King's Palace before telling her the confessions, and told her everything that the Shi family had done in secret.
After weighing the pros and cons, Grandma Mo took him to the Demon King.
In front of the Demon King, Shi Fei confessed everything he knew, including the Pavilion Master Qin whom he had met and the Holy Lord who lived in the mouths of the Shi family elders and Shi Zhongkui.
Although what the Shi family did was not forcing the emperor to abdicate, it was only a few steps away from rebellion.
The Demon King had never heard of the name Holy Lord, but there could only be one Demon Lord in this demon world!
The devil picked up his sword in anger and slammed the table when the confession was delivered to him.
He personally took the four demon generals to the Shi family.
At this time, the Shi family was in a panic when they saw the Shi family members stationed in the Great Wilderness Mountain being taken back, but they had not yet had time to escape.
In addition, they simply couldn't bear to give up such a huge family business.
Shi Zhongkui still held out hope, as the devil only knew about the events in the Great Wilderness Mountain.
Out of fear, they reopened the Shi family's house protection formation, and everyone hid in their own yards for fear of danger.
When they discovered that Shi Fei was not at the Shi family but had gone to the Demon King's Palace, it was too late to escape.
They had no choice but to gather all the strength of the Shi family and fight to the death!
Perhaps it was the impending disaster that made Shi Zhongkui smarter. He returned to his study and collected all the clues about the Holy Lord and Pavilion Master Qin and took them with him.
Lighted the strange incense.
He then pulled out a piece of gray paper from the secret compartment behind the bookshelf and wrote on it: "The Shi family is in danger. The Holy Lord may be exposed. I hope Pavilion Master Qin can rescue him quickly."
After writing this letter for help, Shi Zhongkui did not send anyone to deliver it. Instead, he lit it and threw it into the incense burner to burn.
