Chapter 604 My temper isn't as good as Xue Lan's.
"The Son of Heaven in the Yuanming Realm?"
The servant exclaimed in surprise, her voice filled with disbelief.
The old man transformed into a wisp of gray-black mist and retreated several feet away.
"She actually allowed the Yuanming Realm to produce a Child of Heaven!"
The old man retreated extremely quickly, his tone filled with panic and surprise.
It seems that Xue Lan's willingness to keep Lu Feng alive is an extremely rebellious act.
The inner demon relished seeing the demons' panicked and stunned expressions. The woman raised her eyes, a contemptuous smile playing on her lips, her expression strangely pleased.
"She won't allow it?"
The woman was enveloped in demonic energy even more intense than that of Tingnu, and her tone suddenly turned icy, like the millennia-old ice of the Northern Region:
"Put away your demonic presumptuous speculations."
The moment the words fell, a jet-black demonic aura, carrying a sharp and icy chill, flew toward Tingnu's face. The inner demon's figure transformed into a jet-black streak of light, flashing forward, its left hand's claws gleaming coldly.
The inner demon's cultivation level wasn't very high, only at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, but now he was in the lower realm, at a critical moment when his cultivation was being suppressed.
On the other side was still the inner demon of that Wolf Lord.
The old man dared not face the sharp edge of the late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, the Inner Demon, so he turned into black mist and retreated, trying to find an opportunity to escape.
The two chased each other in mid-air above the mountain pass, seemingly quite relaxed.
But his inner demons lost patience and stopped playing along.
The woman looked at the black mist not far away and revealed a playful smile.
She and Xue Lan already knew that Tingnu's original form was a twin demon beast from the Nine Heavens Demon Realm. Each pair of twin demon beasts in the clan had to devour tens of thousands of clansmen in the process of growing stronger.
Only demons who emerge from mountains of corpses and seas of blood are qualified to serve as priests of the demon god.
In his previous life, Tingnu caused Xue Lan a lot of trouble on the border. Xue Lan once thought that he was the pinnacle of the demon race under the Demon God and tried to get rid of him several times.
However, in this new life, both Xue Lan and her inner demons know that their thoughts from their previous life were wrong.
While the demons had ways to resist Xue Lan on the front lines, they were also making underhanded moves behind the scenes, trying to link the lower and upper realms together...
One obedient servant is far from enough.
Then there's only one possibility.
Among the twin demonic beasts that devour the flesh and soul of their clansmen to grow, Tingnu is not the most powerful one.
The demon lurking behind him is the mastermind behind the entire plan, the most trusted follower of the Demon God.
Injustice has its head, and debt has its owner.
Although all the demons were to be burned to ashes by Lord Wolf, the inner demon still hoped to find the original mastermind behind the scheme.
Find the demon who carried out the Demon God's plan and single-handedly created her.
Thinking of this, the demonic energy on the woman's body transformed into countless chains extending outwards and flew towards Tingnu, directly binding the demonic energy flying in mid-air.
"The demon race has a strict hierarchy, and the primordial demonic energy of the Demon God can suppress most high-ranking demons..."
The inner demon smiled faintly as he looked at the slave girl, whose form had been revealed beneath the chains:
"Isn't this just a coincidence?"
“I, this monster created by you all, happen to possess the original demonic energy of the demon god.”
"Clap!"
The inner demon snapped his fingers, and the demonic chains binding Tingnu instantly sprouted hundreds of sharp black thorns, piercing the old man's body effortlessly.
Black thorns grew within Tingnu's body, their interconnectedness making it difficult for the old man to move, like a bird nailed to the ground.
Taking advantage of the moment when Tingnu was being controlled, he turned to look at Lu Feng, who was entangled with Ji Yun behind him, and said in an arrogant and unruly voice:
"Did you hear what he just said?"
A strange and cold smile curved the corners of the woman's lips:
"Xue Lan is keeping you around because you're useful."
“A useless chosen one of Heaven will be devoured by the ruthless Wolf King.”
The longsword in his hand clashed with the bone whip held by the woman opposite him, producing a piercing sound, but it was far less chilling than the sound of the inner demon.
The young man gritted his teeth and slashed at the bone spur growing on Ji Yun's shoulder with his sword, then turned and roared:
"Threate me! Threaten me! All you know how to do is threaten me!"
After Tingnu stopped targeting Lu Feng, his cultivation began to recover gradually, and the chains binding the old man made a crisp "clattering" sound under the surge of demonic energy.
The inner demon raised his hand and formed an extremely complex hand seal, which he then pressed into the air.
"Stop thinking about all that nonsense. Your priority right now is to take them down."
The woman turned her head slightly and glanced at Lu Feng, her smile full of schadenfreude:
"You probably only have the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
The end of the Ji Yun Bone Whip was stuck on the tip of Lu Feng's sword. The young man was full of doubts and was about to ask a question when he heard a muffled thunder above his head.
A cluster of purplish-black thunderclouds appeared in the sky not far away, flashing with lightning as it swayed from side to side.
Lu Feng's speech was somewhat unclear:
"What does Xue Lan want to do?"
I've served her faithfully for so long, what does this mean?
Does it mean that if you don't do a good job, you'll be struck by lightning?
The inner demon glanced at the thundercloud and swiftly used a superior talisman to seal Lu Feng's hearing for a moment.
A brief interruption in hearing prevented the young man from hearing Tingnu's words:
"That thunderbolt wasn't meant to strike you."
A superior concealment talisman turned to ashes under the stirring of demonic energy, while the inner demon's sharp ice blade pressed firmly against Tingnu's back...
That's where his magic core is located.
"That's well said, but don't say any more."
"My temper isn't as good as Xue Lan's."
Even though her life was being threatened, Tingnu couldn't help but speak up when she heard the inner demon's warning:
"Good-tempered?"
The old man chuckled hoarsely:
"Your Excellency is verbally defending that Wolf King, but deep down you probably wish she were dead, right?"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have said 'the chosen one of heaven' in front of that kid, and summoned heavenly lightning for her."
The inner demon felt that it could no longer keep Tingnu.
He, like his brain-dead master, always says things that are dangerous and unpleasant to hear.
The woman narrowed her eyes slightly:
"You talk too much..."
"Did you hear that?"
Within the demonic core, the thin, pale young man smiled faintly at Xue Lan, who was also in the cage, then slowly raised his finger and pointed to the top of their heads:
"Heavenly thunder."
"When did Lord Wolf King develop this habit of trusting people? Has he made the wrong bet?"
Xue Lan roughly knew what the inner demon was thinking.
There is a fixed order in which the heavenly lightning strikes people in the Yuanming Realm. Generally speaking, it is the order of the Demon God being the strongest, Xue Lan being the strongest, and the others in the Yuanming Realm being the strongest.
The first and second levels are both here, so don't let the heavenly lightning run this way!
The inner demon wanted to use the heavenly lightning to give herself some protection. Even if she was killed by the demon god later, the heavenly lightning would restrain the demon god's remnant soul for a moment, giving her a chance to take the others away...
Xue Lan: "It is indeed something I would do, and there's nothing wrong with it."
But why am I a little annoyed?
Lord Wolf King likes to attack others when he's unhappy, and coincidentally, there's one right there on the other side.
The woman slightly curled the corners of her lips, her smile cold and mocking:
"The Demon God trusts no one..."
"But they didn't necessarily achieve great things and conquer the Yuan-Ming border!"
