Demon God Emperor Descends (3)

Having finally encountered an interesting human, Feng Xiu had no intention of exterminating them.

The relationship between the Demon Race and the Human Race is very complicated.

Both he and his second brother, the Moon Demon God Agares, had human wives. It's just that their human wives chose different paths. Otherwise, the one who was close to Yue Ye should not have been his second daughter, but rather his eldest daughter, Bai Yue.

He understood the hatred humans had for Demon Race.

But they have no choice; they have to live.

Human Race viewed them as foreign invaders and were unwilling to share resources with them. Since the humans were stronger, a simple logic emerged: if you won't give, then I'll just steal.

Humans need to eat, and so do they.

Humans need to drink water, and so do they.

Resources are not unlimited.

Therefore, there is no right or wrong.

But there are always some ignorant people who mistake the kindness and generosity of the strong for weaknesses.

"Don't believe his lies!" After confirming that Ye Qingcang was not Demon Race spy, Sheng Yue astutely noticed a problem in the conversation between Feng Xiu and Ye Qingcang. At this critical juncture when Yang Haohan was unable to ascend the Throne of God Seal, he could only hope that Ye Qingcang would step forward and share some of the pressure. "No matter what, Cai'er has the blood of my Saint Family flowing in her veins. Cai'er has said before that the day she kills the Demon God Emperor will be the day she severs all ties with my Saint Family. The Demon God Emperor will absolutely not give her a chance to grow. On the contrary, if you stand on our side, Cai..."

"That's enough." Ye Qingcang interrupted Sheng Yue's persuasion, and also saw through Sheng Yue's little scheme. "Cai'er does have the blood of your Saint Family flowing in her veins, but you don't represent the Saint Family. Moreover, if Cai'er is unwilling, I can give her a blood transfusion, or even a new body... Put away your underhanded thoughts. You have repeatedly pointed out that Cai'er should sever ties with your Saint Family by killing the Demon God Emperor. In fact, you are reminding me, and also reminding Lord Feng Xiu: who is the enemy, who is the friend, do you believe the words of your friends or your enemies? In fact, there is no such thing as enemies and friends. You just want to use the sacrifice of Sheng Lingxin and Lan Yanyu to resolve the hatred between Cai'er and the Saint Family, and use this relationship to tie me to your Chariot."

Feng Xiu's eyes lit up slightly.

There was more appreciation in her eyes when she looked at Ye Qingcang.

The last time I appreciated something was when I admired Ye Qingcang's talent.

This time, the appreciation is for Ye Qingcang's mind.

Force determines the lower limit, intelligence determines the upper limit.

Ye Qingcang already possesses everything a strong person should have; all he lacks is time. If Ye Qingcang didn't already have a partner, he would be happy to let his second daughter meet Ye Qingcang.

Moreover, if he is not mistaken, Ye Qingcang must have other tricks up his sleeve.

Sheng Yue was unaware of Feng Xiu's thoughts, nor of Ye Qingcang's. He simply hadn't expected Ye Qingcang to see through his intentions so easily, turning him from the proactive to the passive in the blink of an eye. "Your Excellency misunderstands. I have no intention of binding you to my Chariot. I simply wish to discuss something with you... to see if we can reach some consensus that satisfies both of us."

Unlike Yang Haohan and others.

Sheng Yue and San Shui had personally heard Ye Qingcang explain the strength of the Demon God Emperor.

Before realizing the difference in strength, Sheng Yue was always skeptical, but after experiencing the difference, Sheng Yue no longer believed that the current Exorcist Pass could defeat the Demon God Emperor.

The facts are clear.

After that, naturally, we had to find a solution.

Of all the methods, one unavoidable point is Ye Qingcang.

Only Ye Qingcang knew how powerful the Demon God Emperor was.

Only Ye Qingcang knew the true nature of the Demon Race.

Only Ye Qingcang can save the Exorcist Pass.

Knowing a lot doesn't necessarily mean being strong, but a strong person definitely knows a lot. With Ye Qingcang's feat of instantly defeating Qiu Yonghao, the Temple Master of the Warrior Temple, it can be said that he was the only person present who could communicate with the Demon God Emperor.

So even if your little scheme gets exposed, it doesn't matter.

"In exchange for all of Sheng Cai'er's expenses over the past fourteen years... we request that you, on behalf of the Six Great Temples, negotiate with the Demon God Emperor!" Sheng Yue offered her bargaining chip. "If you are willing, all expenses incurred during these fourteen years, including the Reincarnation Spirit Furnace and the Circulation Sword, will be wiped clean. Even if Sheng Cai'er and my Saint Family sever all ties in the future, Sheng Cai'er will not be required to bear these expenses!"

"I'll pay my own debts." Sheng Cai'er looked at Ye Qingcang with unwavering determination. "Don't believe them, trust me, okay?"

"Of course I believe you." Ye Qingcang tapped Sheng Cai'er's forehead, and amidst Sheng Yue's disappointed gaze, gave an answer that Sheng Yue did not want to hear, "I'm sorry, but you all heard it too."

"I see." Feng Xiu suddenly laughed, her gaze sweeping over Yang Haohan and the others, taking in Yang Haohan's confusion, Lin Chen's doubt, San Shui's disappointment, and Sheng Yue's despair. Finally, her gaze landed on Ye Qingcang, looking into his calm, dark eyes, and she meaningfully hinted, "Do you need my help? Just a small favor?"

"I don't like owing favors." Ye Qingcang lifted his eyelids slightly. "If you're willing to help, I can tell you the whereabouts of the God of Divine Retribution."

Feng Xiu's emotions visibly fluctuated.

His gentle, warm expression gradually turned serious.

Before Yang Haohan and the others could understand what was happening...

Feng Xiu then took another step down.

The already immense pressure instantly doubled.

"Now, you have less and less time to choose." Ye Qingcang knew that Feng Xiu had already given her answer with her actions, so with a little more urging, Sheng Yue's bottom line would definitely be broken again. "Your Excellency Sheng Yue, are you really not going to change the terms of the deal?"

"You... you all..." Things had escalated to the point of being almost completely open. Lan Yanyu might not understand, but Sheng Yue and San Shui certainly would. That's why Sheng Yue was so frustrated she felt like vomiting blood. "If you have any complaints about the deal, you can just say so. Why resort to such methods... your appetite and ambition are far too great!"

Feng Xiu did Ye Qingcang a favor.

It became a steel knife held to their necks.

Ye Qingcang was the only one who could stop the steel blade from falling.

It's like a one-of-a-kind life-saving drug.

Take it or leave it; if you don't want it, fine. If you die, so be it.

The most vicious thing is that Ye Qingcang doesn't set a price himself, but makes them think again. He lets them guess. Even if they guess correctly, Ye Qingcang Ye Qingcang can still take a big bite out of them. If they guess wrong, Ye Qingcang will keep repeating the above operation, making the Demon God Emperor put pressure on them until they reach their target price. He might even go further and squeeze them dry!

The leniency shown to them before, to Lan Yanyu and Sheng Lingxin, now seems to be merely the most basic respect for a Goddess of Life. Now, a few words can just as easily kill them!

"Then let's not ask him for help!"

Yang Haohan is most intolerant of being threatened by others.

He hadn't yet realized the difference between the Ninth Order and the Ninth Order, and he didn't believe that the Ninth Order extraordinary beings present couldn't defeat the mere Demon God Emperor. All he realized was that he himself couldn't defeat the Demon God Emperor.

Therefore, Yang Haohan drew his Knight Sword.

He never considered Ye Qingcang an ally, nor did he ever regard Ye Qingcang as an enemy. Precisely because of this, he would never compromise with Ye Qingcang.

pity...

"Completely lacking self-awareness." Feng Xiu's eyes were filled with pity, which deeply pierced the hearts of Yang Haohan and the others. However, in the face of absolute power, Yang Haohan, who was covered in golden light, could only be sent flying by a single finger and fall into the city, carving out a trench a thousand meters long. "Resistance with a chance to turn the tide is the spirit worthy of praise. Resistance without a chance to turn the tide is just meaningless stubbornness."

"Let's all attack together!"

Lin Chen said this.

When dealing with the Demon God Emperor, there's no need to talk about morality.

The Holy Sun Domain was activated, and a sea of fire surged a hundred meters high.

With a high-pitched dragon roar, Martial God fire dragon leaped out of the sea of fire, lifelike, and lunged at Feng Xiu, who was standing in the air.

At the same time, Mo Wu, the chief elder of the Magic Temple, also activated his Domain. The pitch-black swamp spread outwards from his feet in all directions, and in an instant, it soaked all the city walls of Exorcist Pass and surged into the city at a visible speed.

The crystal ball embedded in the staff was shrouded in mist.

A massive magic circle unfolded.

All the fixed magic arrays set up on the city wall of the Exorcist Pass were taken over.

"Ninth Order Forbidden Spell - Great Dark Sky!"

The Ninth Order, second-level dark magic god struggled to recite the name of the forbidden spell.

Even though he was chanting the incantation very quickly.

Within just three seconds, the mobilization of Spiritual Power and the release of the forbidden spell were completed.

But in Ye Qingcang's eyes...

That's also in Feng Xiu's eyes.

It was still as slow as a tortoise.

Both Ye Qingcang and Feng Xiu are the kind of people who, once they make a move, will never show mercy, even in self-defense.

"Too slow..." Ye Qingcang said, taking a step back.

"Too slow..." These were Feng Xiu's last words as he tore apart a fire dragon hundreds of meters long in an instant, killed Lin Chen with a single blow, and arrived in front of Mo Wu at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye. He raised his hand to press down on Mo Wu's head, looked at Mo Wu's trembling and constricted pupils, and before exhaling his magic power, he gave Mo Wu, the God of Magic, his last mercy!

Only at this moment did San Shui summon his Lifebound Summoned Beast and other Ninth Order summoned beasts, Qiu Yonghao take out his warrior sword, and Yang Haohan unfold his Throne of God Seal again!

The city walls of Exorcist Pass were deathly silent!

A Ninth Order fire mage and a level Ninth Order dark mage couldn't even last a moment against the Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu, who was limited by 990,000 points of Spiritual Power in his human body!

Even killing a chicken requires wielding a knife!

Killing a mage is easier than killing a chicken!

"Too fast..." Sheng Yue, the fastest among all the Ninth Order transcendents present, was filled with despair. The speed of Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu was so fast that even he, a Ninth Order assassin, couldn't see his shadow. Even with the presence of a Ninth Order Punishment Knight, and even with the Punishment Knight's talent skill Lock-on allowing attacks to automatically follow Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu, he, as a Ninth Order assassin, knew very well that if Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu, with such speed, really wanted to cut through the back row, it was not something that could be restricted by a single Lock-on skill.

Both mages and summoners need time to cast their ultimate abilities.

In fact, it takes time for an assassin to unleash their ultimate attack.

It just looks like it's instantaneous.

The Demon God Emperor's speed has surpassed their visual and reaction speed.

The Punishment Knight's Lock-On?

Before you can even release it, your head will be on the ground!

The protection of the Guardian Knight?

Before you can even release, I've already taken down the back row!

When an object moves faster than a person's visual perception can capture it, the speed of light becomes meaningless because it's too slow to react.

And this was Ye Qingcang's warning!

You can reject my suggestion!

However, saying no comes at a price!

Right now, you've only lost two Archmages, but if you continue to refuse my advice, it won't just be two Archmages who die!

Sheng Yue gripped the dagger tightly in her hand.

He clearly adopted a wary stance.

But his body was tense, and he dared not move at all.

Compared to Sheng Yue, San Shui, the Vice Hall Master of the Soul Temple, and Ruo Shui, the Vice Hall Master of the Priest Temple, both of whom had almost no ability to protect themselves, quietly lowered their guard.

In team battles, assassins often need to defend two points.

The first point is to cut off the back row of the area.

The second point is to keep an eye on the enemy's assassins.

Therefore, after Yang Haohan, the Guardian Knight, was knocked away by the Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu with a single finger, if even Sheng Yue could not stop the Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu, then the two of them, whose speed was even slower than Sheng Yue, should not even think about resisting. They might as well surrender, observe the situation on the scene, find a suitable opportunity, and then reunite with their teammates to fight.

"At the cost of severing all ties between Sheng Cai'er and my Saint Family!" Sheng Yue spoke each word with a sharp, agonizing tone, each syllable causing his heart to clench in pain. His perfect plan to exchange Lan Yanyu and the Sheng Lingxin for Sheng Cai'er's return had been shattered by Ye Qingcang's few words. Even more humiliating was that he was forced to follow Ye Qingcang's lead and personally God of Destruction this plan. "Please, on behalf of our Six Great Temples, negotiate with the Demon God Emperor ... If the God of Divine Retribution is within our Human Race territory, we are willing to hand over the God of Divine Retribution in exchange for peace!"

"Sheng Yue, are you fucking crazy?" Yang Haohan roared at Sheng Yue.

"Then tell me, what am I supposed to do!" Standing atop the city wall, Sheng Yue gazed across the distance at Yang Haohan, the Temple Alliance Master, who stood at the end of the thousand-meter-long ravine ruins, his opinion differing from hers. A single sentence silenced Yang Haohan, who was about to say something more, "Either submit, or everyone in the city dies... You know how much power is stored within this Exorcist Pass beneath our feet. You can die, I can die, but if San Shui and the others die, how many Ninth Order beings can the Human Race still offer? What about the younger generation? If you had to choose, what would you choose?"

Death is a minor matter.

The overall situation is of paramount importance.

The death of a Ninth Order being is a devastating blow to the Human Race.

But what if a batch of them die?

Previously, there were a total of seven Ninth Order beings present.

The Demon Hunt Squads is not far away.

Including those who can provide support.

There are roughly fifteen Ninth Order.

There are more than fifteen Demon God outside the city!

Neither the Moon Demon God nor the Star Demon God moved, and there are still three of the top ten Demon God!

There are fewer than thirty Ninth Order Human Race in total.

More than half of them perished in the Exorcist Pass.

What's the point of Human Race resisting?

"This is the lesson I wanted to teach you." Ye Qingcang patted Sheng Cai'er's head. Ever since he descended into the God Seal Plane and finished his phone call with Ye Lingling and the other three, he had been quietly pushing this matter forward. If Lan Yanyu could admit her mistakes and correct them, and Sheng Cai'er was willing to forgive her, he would use this matter to enhance Sheng Cai'er's status. If Lan Yanyu did not admit her mistakes and Sheng Cai'er was unwilling to forgive her, he would use this matter to help Sheng Cai'er cut off all troubles, because Sheng Yue and the others only had two choices: either release Sheng Cai'er so he could take action, or be completely wiped out by the Demon God Emperor: "Strike the snake at its vital point. You are part of the big picture, not someone directly involved!"
