Luo Meng's body jolted upright, his head nearly hitting the ceiling.
"Damn wench, who allowed you to refuse on my behalf?"
Luo Meng couldn't help but want to curse out loud.
Because of Candice's words, he had taken a liking to that mysterious person he had yet to meet. Even though it was just a filthy human, they were clever and capable of providing important intelligence. Most importantly, their taste was not bad.
If this person were to help, his achievements would grow, and his reputation among demons would rise.
In time, a great number of demon masters would flock to his side, and toppling his father to become the true Demon King wouldn't be impossible... Demons lived exceedingly long lives, and who knows how long it would take for that old man to die of natural causes. Luo Meng wasn't that patient.
Of course, once his father abdicated, he would surely arrange all his affairs properly.
And yet such a good opportunity was rejected by Candice? Despicable.
