Why, exactly why?

Zhou Li's fingertips tapped lightly on the stone table. This was an action he would do when thinking subconsciously. He stared blankly at the map of Taiying, which marked the locations of the Han Palace and the Jin Xudiao Tower.

The building complex in the center is the Hanwang Palace, and the main hall on the east side of the Hanwang Palace is the Hanwang Palace. The main hall is rarely used on weekdays. It is more like the face of the King of Han, a pure face project.

As the center of the entire Taiying, the Han Palace was like a huge hand firmly holding the city of Taiying. But the Jinxu Diaolou is like a jade tree that grew out of place in the south of Taiying.

Don't blame Zhou Li's metaphor for being too vulgar and rude, but if you really look down from the sky, the Jin Xu Diao Tower really looks like this. It's thin in the middle, wide at the bottom, and round at the top. Although it's resplendent, it just looks a little unbearable.

Moreover, the number of floors built in the Jinxudiao Tower is only one less than that of the Han Dynasty Palace. Any more floors would be arrogance. This resulted in the gold-coloured sculptured building rising into the sky, like an Armstrong cyclone jetting an Armstrong cannon, full of the absurd color of postmodernism.

However, one advantage of such a gold-cut carving building is that it can overlook the entire Taiying. It can be said that apart from the main palace of the King of Han, this is the only carved tower in Taiying that can explore the entire city.

"It would be great if we could build this carved tower a little more and let the King of Han stab him to death."

Zhou Li sighed and complained subconsciously.

"Who told Mrs. Golden Snake to do things flawlessly? She can't even find an excuse to make trouble."

Tang Wan said with a headache: "Jin Yiwei can't even find a handle on Mrs. Jin Snake. The tax paid for ten years is not bad at all. It's even more punctual than the food stall at your door."

“Not bad at all…”

The moment he heard these four words, Zhou Li was suddenly stunned.

"Why would the King of Han think that if we have a monster here, we might fall in love with the Golden Snake Lady?"

Zhou Li murmured to himself.

"Yeah, why?"

Tang Wan had a headache. Obviously, thinking was not her strong point, but for Zhu Qianyun, she had to think.

"Not bad at all."

Zhou Li lowered his head, looked at the mark on the map, and said to himself, "Yes, not bad at all."

"What?"

Tang Wan was stunned, "Zhou Li, are you dementia?"

"Yes, not bad at all."

Zhou Li repeated these four words again. He seemed to understand something. He slowly raised his head, looked at Cen Shu who was not far away, and said softly: "It's because the King of Han wants to make every penny right, so he That’s why you don’t trust me.”

"What the hell?"

Tang Guan on the side slapped the table: "Zhou Li, you said it yourself, the Riddler is the most damnable creature."

"Tell me, if a hawker earns fifty copper coins a day and is charged a tax of five copper coins, what will he do?"

Zhou Li did not answer the question immediately, but instead asked a question. Everyone did not question whether he was out of his mind, but began to think about this issue.

"Pay taxes."

Cen Shu answered quickly, "Five copper coins will not hurt your muscles and bones, and the maintenance of the city and street management require government funds, so it is natural to pay taxes."

"Where's the twenty-five coppers?"

Zhou Li asked calmly.

"You will still pay taxes."

Cen Shu frowned and said, "For a vendor, twenty-five coppers is a lot, but after all, he has no way to fight against the government. He can only pay taxes."

"What if it's not bad at all?"

Zhou Li looked at Cen Shu, his words were as calm as dead water, "What if the tax the government wants to collect is everything he owns?"

Cen Shu was stunned. "Does this have anything to do with us?"

Cen Shu asked in a daze.

"Our guess was correct."

Zhou Li took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He looked at the city of Taiying, stretched out his hand, and gently touched the location of the Golden Xu Diao Tower.

"What the King of Han wants is the Golden Snake Gang."

"But we guessed the depth wrong."

His fingers landed on the Jin Xu Diao Tower and slowly moved to the Han Palace. Zhou Li looked at the huge palace of King Han and asked, "Do you think that if the King of Han wants to destroy the Golden Snake Gang, will other monsters help the Golden Snake Gang?"

"Most don't."

Cen Shu pondered for a moment, shook her head, and said to Zhou Li: "The Golden Snake Gang has been too arrogant and domineering in the past few years. Although they have not bullied their fellow tribesmen, their actions have been too big and have made the demon tribe panic. In other words, if If other monsters get a chance, they even want to destroy the Golden Snake Gang."

"If that were the case, the King of Han would not suddenly want to overturn the table."

Zhou Li rubbed the knuckles of his fingers and squinted his eyes, as if thinking about something. After a moment, he asked in a daze: "So, there is no room for his ideas. It can be said that he wants every penny."

"what do you want?"

Tang Wan asked in confusion: "Do you want your dog's life?"

"Ah."

What surprised Tang Wan was that Zhou Li, instead of taking any action after hearing her disrespectful words, nodded and agreed.

"He wanted many, many lives."

After a pause, Zhou Li said softly: "No, it's not a human being."

"He wants the lives of all monsters."

"Therefore, there is no room for remission."

At this moment, Zhou Li understood why Mrs. Golden Snake asked "The demon will never die", and he finally understood why the King of Han was so eager to overturn the table.

He wanted to speed up.

What he wants is not the little Golden Snake Gang, nor the life of Mrs. Golden Snake.

What he wants is the lives of all monsters.

But is this realistic?
"This is impossible."

Zhuge Qingxiu frowned slightly and said decisively: "Throughout the ages, there are countless people who want to completely kill the Monster Clan, but let alone whether they can do it or not, no one can even touch the root. The Monster Clan is a race after all. How can it be possible because of this? How about being destroyed by one person?"

"Yeah, that's ridiculous."

Cen Shu was also puzzled, "Even if I know that monsters are weak nowadays, they are not so weak. After all, they are the same race. How could they be slaughtered by a prince?"

"Then there is no reason to explain the logic of King Han's behavior."

Zhou Li was very calm, so calm that people couldn't understand. He stretched out his hand, gently tapped the position of the Golden Xu Diaolou with his fingers, and said slowly: "If a prince cannot destroy the demon clan, then what about a demon king who becomes an immortal? "

"The demon king who became an immortal?"

Zhuge Qing was stunned, and then she understood the deep meaning of Zhou Li's words.

"What exactly is the King of Han going to do?"

At this moment, even the top disciple of Longhu Mountain couldn't help but feel a chill coming from the depths of his heart. Zhuge Qing realized that perhaps the Heavenly Master had guessed wrong. The most terrifying thing in this conspiracy might not be Mrs. Golden Snake.

But the King of Han. (End of chapter)
