Chapter 769: Chapter 652: Calm and Advancement
As soon as these words were spoken, the dense fog began to surge rapidly as if responding to a call, like a storm brewing within.
In the blink of an eye, within the visible range, terrifying and ancient figures moved constantly in the mist.
At the moment the fog surged, it unexpectedly split into two rows, revealing a passageway wide enough for one person to pass through.
The end of the passage was enveloped in even thicker mist, but this passage could be considered an entrance.
The Tiger Demon knew that his words had persuaded those within the dense fog to meet him.
Without hesitation, he lifted his foot and walked toward the opening.
As soon as he stepped inside, he felt as though countless pairs of eyes were watching him from head to toe.
The Tiger Demon shivered.
Despite possessing Unity Realm strength, he still felt a deep-seated chill, as if he might be killed at any moment.
Yet, he forced himself to calm down, maintaining composure without the slightest panic before lifting his foot once more to advance.
However, there are times when calmness cannot be sustained, and cold sweat was already beading on the Tiger Demon’s forehead.
The sweat had even soaked his back.
A formidable demon of the Unity Realm, yet here he felt an inexplicable pressure, which would certainly astonish outsiders if known.
But those familiar with this place would consider the Tiger Demon’s current cowardly appearance quite normal.
Following the passageway carved by the dense fog inward, the Tiger Demon soon reached the end.
At the end, there was still a foggy mass, hard to discern clearly.
However, when the Tiger Demon arrived in front of the dense mist, it instantly opened a new passageway.
Only then did the Tiger Demon see the scene within the passage.
The passage revealed a space with mountains and waters.
This place was vast, comparable in size to a Tao-level City.
The abundant Spatial Power within indicated that the creator was far from ordinary.
One could even say it was the work of a master of spatial abilities.
This was where the remnants of the former dynasty resided.
The Tiger Demon understood they were utilizing spatial power here to create a sanctuary.
While recuperating and building strength, they seized any opportunity to overthrow the current Daqian Kingdom.
At this moment, countless figures were standing within this space.
Each exuded immense presence.
As their gaze fell upon the Tiger Demon, he instinctively lowered his head, not daring to meet their eyes.
At the forefront of these people sat a burly middle-aged man on a luxurious throne.
The middle-aged man toyed with a folded document in his hand, while the table was covered with closely written small characters.
Upon seeing the Tiger Demon, the Demon’s legs trembled, and he immediately knelt, pressing his forehead to the ground, not daring to move a muscle.
"The little demon greets Your Majesty."
The emperor of the former dynasty had died, and the current ruler was the former Crown Prince.
The Tiger Demon felt that addressing him as "Your Majesty" not only wouldn’t cost his life, but these remnants of the former dynasty would likely appreciate his current demeanor.
Sure enough, when the Tiger Demon adopted this posture, those gathered eyes quickly shifted aside, seemingly satisfied with his stance.
The middle-aged man on the throne set aside the document and nodded lightly.
"Rise."
Only then did the Tiger Demon stand up, bowing with clasped hands, he said, "I have long heard Your Majesty inherited your father’s title, known as Emperor Tianwu, and today I am fortunate to meet Your Majesty, Emperor Tianwu."
"When I return to my faction, perhaps I can boast a bit; this is indeed the greatest blessing of my life."
From the outset, flattery flowed from his mouth, because the Tiger Demon believed starting with kind words was always wise.
Emperor Tianwu smiled faintly: "You speak well; I am pleased. But some things aren’t accomplished by mere words. Those betrayers from the Forbidden Area called you here; for what purpose, speak, and I may consider it."
The Tiger Demon quickly stepped forward, standing opposite Emperor Tianwu, before saying, "The betrayer lords received orders from the Celestial Demon General Envoy for the little demon to invite Your Majesty, Emperor Tianwu, to depart."
"Depart? What kind of departure?" Emperor Tianwu furrowed his brows slightly.
The Tiger Demon gritted his teeth and said, "The General Envoy means that now the Daqian Kingdom is in turmoil, and Your Majesty can emerge with your people."
Emperor Tianwu’s eyes sharpened, flicking his fingers, sending the document flying to the Tiger Demon’s front.
Not knowing what it was, the Tiger Demon still received it and opened it in front of Emperor Tianwu.
Upon seeing its contents, beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead.
With hands behind his back, Emperor Tianwu spoke plainly: "You see? This document lists everything about the current Daqian Kingdom, including the recently rising Qin An."
"I am quite curious about who Qin An truly is, and so I sent someone to investigate, only to be shocked by the immense revelation."
"Though the Daqian Kingdom is in turmoil, it’s not easily shaken by my people."
The Tiger Demon swallowed hard, bowing with clasped hands, he said, "Your Majesty, Qin An is called a Savior in prophecy; his status is extraordinary, able to overcome adversity."
"Moreover, he is exceedingly decisive and ruthless, with no weaknesses in both character and strength."
"He ranks first on the list of targets for elimination by the General Envoy."
