Chapter: Chapter 182
Can dead relatives be considered relatives? The answer for Mo Zili was no.
She had never even met them, so how could she know if any of her relatives were among them? Even if there were, they were useless since they were dead.
“It’s just that I really didn’t expect the entrance to the passage to this basement to be through the sewers,” Leticia said as she came out, having found the basement entrance.
Unlike normal entrances, this basement entrance was quite hidden. If one were to search for the entrance in the house without knowing the situation, they would never find it.
The entrance wasn’t in the house at all, but in the sewer beneath the house. To find the entrance, one had to enter the sewer, which was quite counterintuitive.
“I plan to create a shortcut, so we can arrange a lot of personnel underground and give our opponents a big surprise,” Leticia shared her plan. “I’ve already asked Xue’er to call the construction team. It should only take them one night to clear out the area underground.”
She didn’t plan to deploy too many people this time, intending to station a few Heavenly Kings underground as reserves and hide elsewhere to wait for an opportune moment. This was her plan.
If Mo Zili’s teacher were to come to snatch her while in his prime, Bai Ling would act as the first line of defense, blocking Mo Zili’s teacher.
Mo Zili’s teacher’s accomplices would be held back by the Four Heavenly Kings and the new pet Leticia had recently acquired. In Leticia’s opinion, this arrangement was almost foolproof.
And once someone showed a weakness, Leticia, who was waiting nearby, would strike with thunderous force, decisively securing victory.
“But by concentrating all your power here, aren’t you afraid that the enemy will cause destruction in the Demon King City?” Bai Ling asked a very practical question.
“Under normal circumstances, the Demon King City doesn’t even have a Heavenly King, and yet nothing seems to have happened, right?” Leticia replied, indicating that there was no major problem. “Besides, the number of guards in the city hasn’t decreased. It’s just that the combat power at the Heavenly King level has been concentrated here.”
“With the Heavenly Kings concentrated here, the defense of the Demon King City will be handled by Xue’er and me. Although we are not professional combat personnel, if a fight really breaks out, we should be able to fight to a draw with a Heavenly King,” Kira also chimed in, joining Leticia and Bai Ling’s discussion.
“Why not leave Lance in the city as a smokescreen? We don’t lack him anyway…”
On the other side, Xiao Ya poked her head over. Although she didn’t understand what her sisters were talking about, she could understand some of the words.
For example, Heavenly King.
Sister Qianqian said she wanted the Heavenly Kings to come here, and her sister was worried about the security of the Demon King City after the Heavenly Kings were concentrated here.
The point was, both her sister and Sister Qianqian seemed to think that concentrating the Heavenly Kings here was a very simple matter. The only thing to worry about was the safety of the Demon King City after the Heavenly Kings left.
However, weren’t Heavenly Kings very highly regarded in the demon race? In Xiao Ya’s understanding, Heavenly Kings only obeyed one person’s orders.
That was the Demon King.
Only the Demon King could command the Heavenly Kings; otherwise, Heavenly Kings had the right to refuse any demon’s orders.
Could it be that Sister Qianqian is the Demon King?!
“Um, Miss Mo, do you know who Sister Qianqian is?” Xiao Ya looked at the only person who was idle and asked.
Mo Zili naturally nodded. Of course, she knew Leticia’s true identity, but “Miss Qianqian warned me not to tell Xiao Ya her true identity.”
To prevent Xiao Ya from winning the bet through cheating, Leticia had exhausted all her tricks.
Those around her kept her identity a secret. Xiao Ya could only get the answer by asking others.
However, when others heard Xiao Ya’s description, most of them were so shocked that they couldn’t even speak, let alone tell Xiao Ya Leticia’s full name.
“I can only tell Xiao Ya that Miss Qianqian is very powerful.”
“That’s right, Master is so powerful, probably a universe stronger than this ridiculously weak sister of mine,” Leticia’s little pet added.
“When did I become your sister?” Mo Zili’s eyes widened.
“We share a bloodline, shouldn’t we be sisters?” The little pet argued logically. “Speaking of which, I don’t have a name yet. Sister, can you give me one?”
Well, they did share a bloodline, but Mo Zili still found it a bit difficult to accept suddenly having a sister.
At least give her some time to adapt.
As for naming, Mo Zili’s rather limited vocabulary had come up with several names, all of which were rejected by the little pet.
In the end, Mo Zili had to ask for help from Leticia and the others, who had already finished discussing the specific countermeasures.
Coincidentally, it was time for dinner, so everyone started discussing the little pet’s name over dinner.
First of all, since the little pet admitted to being Mo Zili’s sister, and Mo Zili didn’t show any obvious objections, they would treat them as sisters.
Since they were sisters, they should have the same surname.
Although in the demon world, the surname usually came last, Mo Zili’s surname was already Mo, and it was not easy to change it now.
She couldn’t give Mo Zili a name with a stronger demonic flavor, that would be a waste of time.
“Mo Xiaoguai?” Leticia proposed a name that was destined to be rejected.
“Sounds bad,” Xiao Ya rejected it.
Bai Ling had no intention of expressing her opinion. She was currently devouring the food on the table at full speed, truly oblivious to everything else and solely focused on eating.
“Mo Ziling?” Kira thought for a long time and gave her opinion.
“Hmm, it doesn’t have much character,” Leticia raised an objection.
However, compared to Leticia’s name, this slightly ordinary name received everyone’s unanimous approval.
“This is it!” The little pet immediately made the decision and settled on her name. “Master’s naming ability is truly terrible.”
“Wow, you still know I’m your master? Then, as a little pet, shouldn’t you obey my commands 100%?”
“Master, you can have my body, but you can’t have my soul!” Mo Ziling replied with a determined look.
Saying that made it sound like she was some kind of villain.
Leticia pouted slightly, feeling a bit displeased. However, to be honest, she didn’t have much hope for this suddenly acquired little pet.
She couldn’t possibly send her into battle, could she?
With her strength, she was only slightly stronger than Xiao Ya and Mo Zili.
