Chapter 251 : Why Run Take Me Along
Night fell.
The demon cultivators lurking in the shadows surrounded the entire demon palace. They encountered a formation on the way, and most demons were completely ignorant about formations. The demon cultivators took out a cone-shaped demonic artifact and worked together to break the formation, wasting considerable time.
As dawn approached and the night's darkness thinned, the Demon Emperor might discover their actions at any moment. The lead demon cultivator felt somewhat panicked, but he recalled the death order issued from above. He was certain that Yan Wangxing hadn't discovered them; otherwise, given his typically arbitrary and brutal style in the demon realm, these demon cultivators wouldn't have the chance to be standing here alive now.
With the entire demon palace surrounded, another demon cultivator took out a demonic artifact resembling an incense burner. This ancient divine demon furnace possessed the ability to bewitch minds and could trap even the most powerful demons. However, when they smugly broke in, they found the palace empty, without a single person in the Demon Emperor's bedchamber.
The lead demon cultivator realized they had been tricked. His expression changed drastically as he shouted loudly, "Quickly—retreat!"
"Coming as you please, leaving as you wish, what do you think my palace is?"
A chilling laugh suddenly came from behind them. Some demon cultivators didn't even have time to turn around before their heads were instantly separated from their bodies, falling to the ground. The blood ignited widespread panic. The demon cultivators instantly understood they had fallen into a trap. In just a few breaths, more than half of the hundred-plus demon cultivators perished.
The demon cultivators who came were mostly at the Nascent Soul stage or above, with even several at the Divine Transformation stage. How could they be so easily slaughtered?!
The lead demon cultivator felt great panic in his heart and immediately lost the will to continue fighting. He wanted to escape quickly and report the intelligence to other demon lords.
"Oh my, why the rush to run? Take me along." Chu Sang leaned against the doorway, waving enthusiastically at them.
Layers of formations sealed the entire demon palace airtight. They were like fish in a barrel, with every escape route tightly blocked. Having lured the snake into the hole, there was no way out!
"...Who are you? Whose subordinate are you, why are you stopping us?" A Divine Transformation stage demon cultivator angrily shouted.
Chu Sang had infiltrated the demon realm to prevent her identity from being exposed. Before coming, she had attached several concealment talismans to her body. These demon cultivators subconsciously took her for a demon cultivator, but the problem was, Yan Wangxing only had a few close confidants, yet they had never seen Chu Sang before... Could this person be a spy in disguise who had leaked their plan for tonight?
"Facing death, yet still so talkative!"
Yan Wangxing laughed coldly, his Unity stage pressure descending. His figure moved again, his demon blade rising and falling. Even Chu Sang found it difficult to capture his striking movements. The entire demon palace turned into a slaughterhouse, with corpses falling and blood flowing freely.
Chu Sang disliked the cruel and murderous scenes of the demon race, but the strength of the Unity stage was indeed a level above the Divine Transformation stage. She still had the leisure to compare: with her current strength, it would take at least half a day to deal with this group of demon cultivators, while a Unity stage cultivator could behead these hundred-plus demon cultivators in just a few sword swings.
The strength of the Great Perfection stage was even greater than the Unity stage.
That time when the Demon Emperor obtained the Divine Decree, he advanced to the Great Perfection stage. If she hadn't borrowed the power of the lightning tribulation, she might have ended up like these tragically dead demon cultivators on the spot...
Indeed, strength was the most important thing. Chu Sang inwardly sighed, pondering how to quickly raise her strength. Recently, that sense of urgency in her heart had become increasingly pressing.
Yan Wangxing quickly slaughtered all the demon cultivators in the hall, leaving only one.
The remaining demon cultivator looked quite young. Seeing everything before him, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground, pale-faced and trembling.
He sheathed his blade and went over, grabbing the person and lifting him up, questioning, "Which demon lord sent you here? Is it that dead bitch You Liu, or is it Xi Ji?"
