Chapter 588 - 490: I Am Your King (First Update)
"Demon King?"
Yang Tian was taken aback.
Then, he started to feel amused.
At this moment, he was wearing a Demon Skin cloak, and his appearance was no longer the same as before.
On the contrary, he had become the Celestial Demon King.
The original Celestial Demon King had long disappeared, leaving behind only this Demon Skin cloak.
The Demon King clearly wanted to create the illusion that he was still here, so this Demon Skin cloak was placed over a wooden frame to make it look very realistic.
Now only Yang Tian knew this was a Demon Skin cloak.
Thinking of this, a gleam flashed in Yang Tian's eyes: Isn't the Celestial Demon trying to capture me? Fine, I'll use the identity of the Demon King to rescue.
"Rise."
Yang Tian said lightly.
"Yes!"
The ten or so Celestial Demon Martial Guards respectfully saluted, then stood up, each lowering their head.
"Why are you all so anxious, what's the situation?"
Yang Tian asked indifferently.
"Reporting to the Demon King, someone said that restless elements in the stone prison have started rioting, and a man resembling a human opened the stone prison, releasing those inside..."
A Celestial Demon Martial Guard hurriedly reported.
"A man resembling a human?"
Yang Tian's expression turned cold.
This was clearly talking about him.
"Yes, a man resembling a human."
The Celestial Demon Martial Guard nodded respectfully.
"Who said that? Bring them to me immediately!"
Yang Tian ordered coldly.
"It's the Old Demon guarding the stone prison... My lord, I will bring him here right away..."
The Celestial Demon Martial Guard, seeing Yang Tian's displeasure, quickly ran out, and shortly after, brought an aged old man over.
This old man, though aged, stood over two meters tall, wielding a Yaksha, appearing as a mutated monster to humans.
Thud!
The Old Demon, upon seeing Yang Tian, knelt before him respectfully, "My lord, what do you wish of me?"
"Are you the one guarding the stone prison?"
Yang Tian asked coldly.
The Old Demon, hearing the tone in Yang Tian's voice, fearfully responded, "My lord, you are right, I am the one guarding the stone prison, but at that time, I was drunk, only vaguely aware as a man resembling a human entered, then opened the stone prison door..."
Hearing this, Yang Tian waved his hand, "Take him out and execute him!"
"What?"
At Yang Tian's words, the Celestial Demons were in an uproar, each looking at Yang Tian in surprise.
"Didn't you hear me? I am your Demon King, I said take him out and execute him!"
Yang Tian stated coldly.
The Celestial Demons fell silent for a moment, then immediately responded, "As you command, we will take him out and execute him..."
Saying this, two Celestial Demon Martial Guards approached the Old Demon.
The Old Demon realized Yang Tian wasn't joking, his face turned pallid, kneeling and pleading continuously, "Please have mercy, Demon King, I know nothing, why execute me?"
The two Celestial Demon Martial Guards hearing the Old Demon's words, also nodded.
Indeed, the Old Demon didn't seem guilty of any capital crime, why execute him?
Thinking this, the actions of the two Celestial Demon Martial Guards slowed down.
Yang Tian naturally understood what these two Celestial Demon Martial Guards were thinking, he coldly stated, "Old Demon, you were guarding the stone prison yet allowed outsiders to open the door, that is deserving of death!"
"But..." The Old Demon's face was pale, "But my lord, shouldn't the suspicion fall on the human?"
"You stubbornly refuse to change? Execute!"
Yang Tian waved his hand again, coldly.
This time, the Celestial Demon Martial Guards were conflicted, unsure whether to execute or not.
"What are you standing there for? Execute him now, lest you all face death!"
Yang Tian stated coldly.
These words finally struck fear into the Celestial Demon Martial Guards.
They were about to take the Old Demon away, but Yang Tian added, "Execute him right here!"
"Yes!"
The Celestial Demon Martial Guards responded heavily, two guards holding down the Old Demon tightly, another raising a sharp blade.
"Have mercy, Demon King, have mercy..."
The Old Demon kept pleading.
Yang Tian waved his hand, "Execute!"
Thud!
The blade fell, the Old Demon's head flew, rolling a few times on the ground before stopping at Yang Tian's feet.
A fierce burst of blood spewed forth.
The Celestial Demon Martial Guards, unable to dodge, were stained by the blood. They saw Yang Tian standing there, with a protective barrier around him, so the blood couldn't touch him. Seeing this, they knelt in respect, "Long live the king!"
Yang Tian crushed the Old Demon's head with his foot, coldly stating, "I am your king, anyone who dares to displease me will be executed!"
A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the surrounding Celestial Demon Martial Guards.
How come the king was more volatile after returning?
"Where is Wu Tiandu? Take me to him!"
Yang Tian thought of Wu Tiandu, a thought crossed his mind.
Now that I have donned the Demon Skin cloak and become the Demon King, can I execute Wu Tiandu?
"Wu Tiandu?"
These Celestial Demon Martial Guards were confused, not knowing who Wu Tiandu was.
"You don't know Wu Tiandu? Damn it!" Yang Tian's face darkened, "Take me to the Celestial Demon Dungeon!"
"Reporting to the king, perhaps you mean the Celestial Slayer Demon King?"
A Celestial Demon Martial Guard asked.
"Celestial Slayer Demon King?"
Yang Tian sneered, unexpected that Wu Tiandu became the Celestial Slayer so quickly after entering the Celestial Demon Domain?
"The Celestial Slayer Demon King recently captured a human woman, intending to cleanse the humanity in him with her blood," the Celestial Demon Martial Guard paused, "Just now, the Celestial Slayer Demon King sent her to the Demon Hall, preparing to cast spells!"
"Is that so?"
Yang Tian's face turned cold.
Wu Tiandu's actions were quicker than he anticipated.
He coldly said, "Take me to him!"
"Yes!"
The Celestial Demon Martial Guards nodded respectfully, then led Yang Tian towards the Demon Hall.
Throughout the journey, these Celestial Demon Martial Guards were puzzled.
Why did the Demon King not know where the Demon Hall was?
But they scrutinized the Demon King, confirming he was indeed their king, so they dared not question further.
Soon, under the guidance of several Celestial Demon Martial Guards, Yang Tian arrived at the Demon Hall.
Even before approaching, he heard incantations emanating from inside. Yang Tian used his Divine Sense, and his face darkened.
Inside the Demon Hall, Yang Tian saw Wu Yue and Wu Tiandu.
At this moment, Wu Yue was lying on a Demon Platform, while Wu Tiandu was holding a Demon Wand, alongside a group of Magic Robe-clad Demon Masters continuously chanting incantations around the Demon Platform.
Seeing this, Yang Tian sneered, kicking open the door.
Bam!
The door burst open.
The Celestial Demons inside instinctively turned their heads, and upon seeing Yang Tian, their expressions changed drastically, "Demon King!"
Wu Tiandu also saw Yang Tian, frowning, "Demon King, why have you returned..."
