Chapter 229 - The Sloppy Elder (1/2)
The vast Demon Realm.
Above the clouds, a large s.h.i.+p soared high in the sky. Its speed exceeded Meng Chuan’s limits. Two figures stood on the deck of the s.h.i.+p.
A single-horned, black-haired man stood there as though he was the center of the world. s.p.a.ce and time revolved around him.
The other figure was a white-robed, azure-haired man—who was clearly respectful to the black-haired man. Azure scales could barely be seen beneath his clothes. His eyes held more arrogance than the black-haired man. He was a demon sage.
“Your Majesty, there are over 300 third Firmament demon monarchs on the wars.h.i.+p. Of them, 53 can reach the fourth Firmament at any time. The remaining demon monarchs are either at the threshold of the fourth Firmament or have powerful divine powers,” said the white-robed, azure-haired man softly, “We spent five years gathering all of them. Now that we are sending them to the human world, no accidents must occur. They are the true core of the army.”
“Nothing will go wrong.” The black-haired, single-horned man had a gentle smile on his face. “This time, your second brother will personally receive you.”
“Second Brother will receive us?” The white-robed, azure-haired man was astonished. “Your Majesty, Second Brother infiltrated the human world over 80 years ago by possessing a weak demon monarch’s body. Has his strength returned to the demon sage realm?”
“A possessed body is ultimately inferior to a true body.” The black-haired man shook his head. “He infiltrated the human world to cultivate in seclusion. After more than 80 years, he has finally recovered to the fifth Firmament. With his technique realm and the treasures we bestowed him, no one can threaten him other than Creation Supremacies.”
The white-robed, azure-haired man nodded. “Possession is indeed a forbidden technique. The Imperial Lords had chosen the most suitable body for Second Brother, but it still had flaws.”
“No matter how good the body is, it’s still inferior to one’s original body,” said the black-haired, single-horned man. “In theory, one can only reach their original strength with a possessed body. It’s impossible for him to improve any further.”
“Yes. Second Brother has sacrificed too much for the demons.” The azure-haired man sighed.
After a while, the wars.h.i.+p landed on the ground. Many demon monarchs got off the wars.h.i.+p in puzzlement.
“Your Majesty.” When they saw the two figures standing far away, they immediately bowed respectfully. They all knew the single-horned, black-haired man. He was one of the demon’s supreme Imperial Lords—Imperial Lord Starquix. Imperial Lords could live up to 10,000 years, and their strength far exceeded the imagination of ordinary demon monarchs. They ruled the demon world for a very, very long time.
“Up ahead is the World Entrance. It leads to the human world.” Imperial Lord Starquix commanded the demon monarchs. “Set off!”
“Yes.” All the demon monarchs responded in unison. They had long prepared for their venture into the human world. They knew the critical moment had arrived. They naturally followed the order and entered the World Entrance swiftly.
…
A hot summer day in the Great Yue Dynasty.
“Cough, cough.” A sloppy elder with a walking stick coughed as he came to a city pa.s.s. This was one of the abandoned medium-sized city pa.s.ses. It was dead silent.
The sloppy old man’s eyes turned yellow as he admired the world.
“This world sure is beautiful. It’s suitable for us demons to live in,” praised the sloppy elder. He walked into the desolate city with his walking stick and scanned his surroundings. “This city hides a Marquis G.o.dfiend and five Indestructible G.o.dfiends. From the looks of it, Two World Island values this place quite a bit.”
This sloppy old man was the strongest demon in the human world. However, he still needed to be extremely careful because once Creation Supremacies discovered his existence, he would be finished. Therefore, he only took action when it was extremely important.
For example, this time…
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
At the city pa.s.s, one demon monarch after another exited the World Entrance.
“Marquis, demon monarchs discovered.”
“Demon monarchs have entered the human world.”
The five Indestructible G.o.dfiends in charge of monitoring the World Entrance immediately discovered demon monarchs.
“Oh?” Killing intent filled a cold, black-robed man’s eyes. As a Marquis G.o.dfiend, he could easily slaughter these third Firmament demon monarchs.
