Chapter 2471: Demon Slaying Parade(4)
<Selena has accepted your blood>
<You have turned ’Selena’ into a Demonic Servant>
’So they are still considered a Demonic Servant, huh?’ Yuan thought inwardly after seeing the notification, wondering if everyone in the Demonic Realm was classified as one, regardless if they are a Transcendent or not.
<Angela has accepted your blood>
<You have turned ’Angela’ into a Demonic Servant>
<Helena has accepted your blood>
<You have turned ’Helena into a Demonic Servant>
"Satisfied now, you pervert?" Angela suddenly remarked.
Yuan looked at her with a raised eyebrow, looking stunned by her random comment.
"Ahem." He cleared his throat before asking them, "When do you plan on visiting my world?"
Selena turned to the others and asked, "What do you two think?"
"I will let you decide," Helena said.
"If I have to be honest, I am more interested in his human world than our own," Angela said.
Selena nodded, "I agree, so let’s save the best for last."
Yuan then said, "I still have a couple of years left here, but I doubt that will be enough for you."
"If I have to be honest, besides the Crimson Continent, there isn’t much to explore. I know Death Paradise like the back of my hands, and the Bone Atolls are mostly water."
’Exploring the Crimson Continent?’ Supreme Ruler Grant swallowed nervously at her words.
Yuan then said, "It’ll be easier if you follow me now because once I leave and return to my world, I intend on sealing the gateway again."
"Why don’t you just leave it open? If you’re worried that demons might invade your world, we can make it so that nobody beside us can approach this place," Selena said.
"Um... this is the Bloody Monastery, where we honor our Supreme—" The Supreme Adviser opened his mouth to speak but hastily shut his mouth after hearing Supreme Ruler Grant’s voice echo inside his head.
"Shut the hell up, you imbecile! Do you know who they are?! If we offend them, the Bloody Monastery being destroyed will be the least of our worries!"
Fortunately for them, the Transcedents didn’t even spare a glance for the Supreme Adviser, treating him as if he were invisible.
"I am not just worried about demons invading my world," Yuan shook his head. "I also don’t want my people to accidentally visit this world—at least not until we clean up all of the Forsaken in my world and explain the truth to them, which will take some time."
Selena pondered for a moment before responding, "In that case, I will go with you now and help you clean up the trash to speed things up. In the meantime, I will explore this place as much as possible."
"No rush."
Selena and the others left shortly later while Yuan continued working on the seal.
Meanwhile, two years later—or two days in the Nine Heavens, the Demon Slaying Parade officially began.
A Demon Sealer appeared on the platform before hundreds of thousands of spectators and announced, "The Demon Sealing Clan welcomes everyone gathered here today. Before we begin the Demon Slaying Parade, we will briefly explain its purpose and offer some insight for those unfamiliar with the details."
He continued, "The Demon Slaying Parade was created after our founder, the Divine Paragon, suddenly vanished. In the past, Demon Sealers would fight one another for his position, and the event was established to make the process less violent and ensure that only those truly qualified could become leaders."
"During the Demon Slaying Parade, the participants—the current leader of the Demon Sealing Clan and the challenger—are given one week to seal as many demons as possible. In order for the challenger to become the next leader, they must seal more demons than the current leader."
"The current leader of the Demon Sealing Clan is Qian Chu, who..."
The Demon Sealer then went on to recount some of Qian Chu’s background and accomplishments for the spectators.
"The one challenging Leader Qian for his position is Master Demon Sealer Yan Hara, who..."
He proceeded to list a few of Yan Hara’s deeds as well, but as one of Qian Chu’s supporters, he presented them in a way that made it seem as though she had accomplished very little.
Shortly afterward, Qian Chu stepped onto the stage to a wave of applause. Yan Hara appeared soon after, only to be met with loud boos from the crowd.
"Yan Hara, stop messing around and do your job properly!"
"While you are trying to usurp a position you don’t qualify for, the demon worshippers are running amok!"
"You have already failed to become a Supreme Demon Sealer, so what makes you think you can become the leader?!"
Some of the spectators even started cursing at her.
"Ignore these ignorant bastards, Senior Yan!"
"You got this, Yan Hara!"
"Take down that fraud, Qian Chu!"
"Show them the prowess of Divine Paragon’s successor!"
Of course, there were also some who supported her.
"What did you just say? Divine Paragon’s successor?"
When those who were unaware of her identity inquired about it.
"That’s right! The Divine Paragon was the founder of the Demon Sealing Clan and the very reason we aren’t living as slaves to demons today! Senior Yan is his rightful successor!" her supporters exclaimed.
"How is that possible? I thought the Divine Paragon vanished without a successor during the Demonic Era."
"Senior Yan found his legacy, recovering his lost techniques."
"Just because she found his legacy doesn’t mean she’s a legitimate successor."
"Except the Divine Paragon himself left behind a record stating that whoever finds his legacy first will become his successor."
While the audience argued back and forth, Yan Hara and Qian Chu stood before a portal that would lead them to the battlefield.
"I hope you’re ready to lose, Yan Hara. You, who is neither in the God Ascension Realm nor a Supreme Demon Sealer, will never win against me!"
Yan Hara coldly sneered, "When it comes to dealing with demons, it’s our Demon Sealing Aura and techniques that truly matter. I will show you the prowess of the Divine Paragon’s techniques, so you better keep your eyes open, you traitor."
