Chapter 1492: Chapter 1404: Half-Demons Were Once Human Too
The still-living tiger dared not resist and began to obediently devour its companion.
Watching this scene, Luo Dan casually explained, "This white tiger is not only extremely proud but also extremely brutal. Usually, it would find ordinary tigers to serve it in bed, and after being served, it would kill them all. Now, all the tigers in the Northern North Desolation are trembling in fear, but no one dares to resist."
Ye Guichen was left somewhat speechless after hearing this.
This white tiger is really fierce.
Without speaking, Ye Guichen and Luo Dan approached the white tiger.
The white tiger merely glanced at Luo Dan without even raising its eyelid, snorted, and remained crouched on the ground: "I don’t know what business the Holy Envoy has come for?"
Looking at the white tiger’s contemptuous manner, Luo Dan felt extremely dissatisfied.
But the white tiger’s cultivation was high, and if it really came to a fight, Luo Dan would not be a match.
"Lord White Tiger, I..." Luo Dan was just about to say something courteous when Ye Guichen suddenly spoke, "Come to kill you!"
The white tiger was taken aback by the words, suddenly raised its head, only to see Ye Guichen’s sword already close.
The white tiger was greatly shocked but reacted quickly, its body bounced up like a spring.
It actually dodged Ye Guichen’s sword strike.
"Roar!"
The white tiger let out a roar.
The sound passed through the bodies of the two tigers, one living and one dead, directly striking their bodies full of holes, as if the sound waves of the white tiger carried thousands of sharp arrows.
Moreover, when those sound waves rolled toward Ye Guichen, Ye Guichen also felt his mind wavering a bit.
Although Luo Dan was already somewhat prepared, she covered her ears with her hands.
But the sound easily passed through her ears, causing her organs to churn, extremely uncomfortable.
"So strong!"
Ye Guichen’s heart clenched as Luo Dan suddenly called out, "Brother Ye, kill it quickly, if we don’t act fast and other half-demons are drawn here, none of us will escape today."
Ye Guichen understood this very well.
As the white tiger’s roar reached Ye Guichen’s ears.
Ye Guichen’s body also showed a momentary hesitation.
The white tiger leapt forward, a claw rushing at Ye Guichen, seemingly trying to tear Ye Guichen in two.
Ye Guichen’s recovery was extremely strong.
That momentary hesitation was just that—a moment.
When the white tiger charged, Ye Guichen had already come to his senses.
He worried the white tiger might roar again, so he didn’t hold back and directly unleashed a technique of a hundred swords resonating.
The moment the hundred swords flew out, they rushed to kill the white tiger.
The white tiger was stunned, not expecting Ye Guichen to have such methods, subconsciously wanting to dodge.
But Ye Guichen wouldn’t give it the chance.
After seeing the white tiger dodge over a dozen swords, Ye Guichen’s mind focused, using the remaining swords to block all its escape routes.
"Cut!"
With Ye Guichen’s command, the hundred swords densely surrounded the white tiger, slashing forward simultaneously.
The white tiger had no way to retreat, actually charging forward against the swords as if trying to break through Ye Guichen’s swords and kill Ye Guichen at the same time.
But clearly, it underestimated Ye Guichen’s strength.
Overestimated its own physical resilience even more.
Though the hundred swords hadn’t fully displayed their potential yet, their sharpness was something a half-demon without a complete Golden Core couldn’t withstand.
Once a sword entered the white tiger’s body, the rest of the swords began frenziedly stabbing into the white tiger’s body.
In the blink of an eye.
The white tiger was turned into a porcupine.
No matter how strong the white tiger was, under so many sharp swords, it finally lost its life.
Luo Dan watched the battle, which lasted no more than ten seconds, completely in shock.
Originally, he had felt Ye Guichen was strong, but hadn’t expected him to be this strong.
With just one move, he killed the white tiger.
Luo Dan even began to doubt whether the Flood Dragon King was a match for Ye Guichen.
Previously, Luo Dan realized he might have underestimated Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen naturally didn’t know Luo Dan’s thoughts; killing the white tiger was to beat the odds.
However, with such commotion here, although demonic beasts were few, it’s believed it wouldn’t take long before discovery.
Ye Guichen walked forward, took out the white tiger’s Demon Core, and ate it like a jelly bean, while summoning Luo Dan to leave quickly, under her shocked gaze.
After consuming the white tiger’s Demon Core, Ye Guichen felt the membrane separating him from the Golden Core Realm loosening even more.
It shouldn’t be long before he breaks through to the Golden Core Realm.
However, Ye Guichen didn’t rashly make another move.
He would wait and see how the Flood Dragon King reacts to the death of this great demon.
Now that Luo Dan was acting as an insider, Ye Guichen wasn’t afraid of getting caught, having Yan Fang lead Feng Wuxiu and the others directly to where Luo Dan lived, and then have Luo Dan go to gather information.
"Brother Ye, is that person named Luo Dan reliable?" After meeting Ye Guichen, seeing him together with Luo Dan, Chu Yuanchen couldn’t help but feel curious.
Ye Guichen smiled, "Why wouldn’t she be reliable? An enemy’s enemy is a friend, haha, let’s wait for the information."
Chu Yuanchen suddenly realized he could no longer understand Ye Guichen at all.
This guy not only had high cultivation, but also thought in a completely different way from others.
Originally, when Chu Yuanchen heard the Xuantian Sect mention they were coming to assassinate the Great Demon, he already felt it was extremely difficult. But to his surprise, Ye Guichen not only easily killed a Great Demon, but also formed an alliance.
How the heck did it feel like Ye Guichen managed everything as if he were just sightseeing?
At the same time.
The Flood Dragon King sat on the stone throne, exuding a rich demonic aura.
In front of him, lay the bodies of more than a dozen half-demons.
These half-demons were all under the White Tiger’s command.
When they found White Tiger, he had already been dug out for his Demon Core, his body full of bloody holes, already far beyond dead.
These half-demons dared not delay and hurriedly came to report to the Flood Dragon King.
But upon receiving the news, the Flood Dragon King, in a fit of rage, killed all these half-demons.
"A bunch of useless things!" The Flood Dragon King coldly stared at Lady Python: "What exactly is going on? Haven’t those human cultivators infiltrating our Northern North Desolation been found yet? Now they’ve even killed White Tiger right under my nose; does that mean one day they’ll quietly kill me too!"
The Flood Dragon King was burning with anger, feeling blatantly provoked.
Lady Python was also trembling with fear.
She hadn’t expected that human cultivators would be so bold as to come and kill one of their Great Demons.
Moreover, up till now, they’ve not found any trace of those human cultivators in the Northern North Desolation.
"My Lord, what should we do now?" Lady Python no longer dared to act coquettishly, she lowered her head, not daring to meet the Flood Dragon King’s gaze.
The Flood Dragon King snorted coldly: "What else can be done? Call the Golden Eagle here immediately."
"My Lord, isn’t it unnecessary to trouble Lord Golden Eagle with such matters?" Lady Python attempted to persuade, but was directly interrupted by the Flood Dragon King: "Hurry up!"
Though Lady Python was reluctant, seeing the angry expression on the Flood Dragon King, she nodded and agreed, going to summon the Golden Eagle.
Before long, a woman dressed in feathered garments arrived.
She was the half-demon known as the Golden Eagle.
In terms of beauty, the Golden Eagle surpassed Lady Python by far.
The Golden Eagle also resided in the place with the densest Spiritual Energy in the entire Northern North Desolation.
Lady Python was extremely jealous of her and did not want the Golden Eagle to appear before the Flood Dragon King.
She feared that if the Flood Dragon King took a fancy to the Golden Eagle, she would be directly discarded.
"Do you kneel when seeing the King?" Seeing the Golden Eagle’s graceful figure standing there without kneeling, Lady Python immediately scolded.
The Golden Eagle’s original name was Huang Ling; before her half-demon bloodline was activated, she was the daughter of a wealthy family.
She not only had outstanding looks but was also proficient in all forms of art and literature.
However, after her half-demon bloodline was activated, the Golden Eagle temporarily lost her sanity and killed all her family around her.
Since then, she became silent.
Unlike other half-demons, she did not take much delight in her power, but rather felt some resentment.
She had even previously envisioned her life, not cultivating immortality or truth, much less involving in such deceptions, desiring only to find a loving man and live a quiet life.
But everything changed once her half-demon bloodline was activated.
She was even told that because she had the bloodline of the divine bird Roc, her cultivation would advance rapidly, and she might even evolve into a true member of the Demon Clan in the future.
Demon Clan?
The Golden Eagle merely sneered.
Feeling that everything in the world was too absurd.
The Demon Clan dreams painfully of transforming into human form, while she, who lived well as a human, suddenly one day became a half-demon, taking becoming a member of the Demon Clan as her lifelong hope.
How ironic.
So, though possessing lightning-like speed and not being weak in cultivation, even being named one of the Five Great Demons by the Flood Dragon King, the Golden Eagle wasn’t invested in slaying human cultivators or opening the hidden doors to release the Demon Clan.
She had a rather indifferent attitude.
Upon hearing Lady Python’s scolding, the Golden Eagle turned her head and looked at Lady Python indifferently: "Madam, since the King hasn’t spoken, is this a place for you to talk?"
"You, how dare you!" Lady Python was infuriated: "Since the King is the King of the Northern North Desolation, he should have the demeanor of such, the revival of the Demon Clan rests on us half-demons. Disrespecting the King is contempt for the Demon Clan, it’s punishable by death!"
"Hmph, fine, if you have the ability, you can certainly try to kill me!" The Golden Eagle was unmoved, giving Lady Python a sidelong glance, looking up at the Flood Dragon King: "What’s the reason my Lord has summoned me?"
The Flood Dragon King wore a smile, walking down directly from the throne, and came in front of the Golden Eagle, reaching out intending to grab the Golden Eagle’s hand, but she dodged away.
A flash of cruelty crossed the depths of the Flood Dragon King’s eyes, but he quickly covered it up.
As a former general, he knew the importance of power and was obsessed with it.
His zeal for slaying human cultivators was born from the hope that one day the Demon Clan could greatly enhance his cultivation, allowing him to become a formidable power-holder.
Of course, beyond power, Li Jiao, who formerly served as the Great General, had always been particularly attracted to such fine young ladies.
Apparently, he’s a martial man, yet he favors tender young women.
Though a half-demon, his mindset remained unchanged even before his bloodline was activated.
He’s always been fond of this Golden Eagle.
But this Golden Eagle always kept her distance, leaving him quite frustrated.
"Hehe, Miss Huang, actually, the reason for calling you today is that I hope you can do something for me," the Flood Dragon King’s tone turned soft, inciting jealousy from Lady Python.
The Golden Eagle, however, directly interrupted the Flood Dragon King’s words: "My Lord, Huang Ling died long ago, now I am just the half-demon Golden Eagle, I hope you won’t address me by my former name any more."
