The Six Paths Devil Emperor was seething with pent-up fury!
The two subordinates he had sent out had died such unjust deaths. His search with a secret method had revealed something!
His two subordinates had not been killed by that damned brat from the Auction House at all!
Instead, they had been killed by the Devil Race cultivators guarding the Holy Demon Forbidden Land. In other words, after all that, his men had died at the hands of their own side.
What a grievous injustice!!
When the Six Paths Devil Emperor demanded an accounting from those so-called Devil Race guardian cultivators, they refused to admit any wrongdoing. They insisted that his men had trespassed. The Holy Demon Forbidden Land had always had such a rule: if anyone trespassed into the forbidden land, its guardian cultivators had full authority to kill them!!
With the dead unable to testify, the Six Paths Devil Emperor had no grounds to challenge them. All he could do was threaten to complain to their superior!
In truth, the Six Paths Devil Emperor also knew that his two subordinates had probably been killed when the guardians activated the Holy Demon Forbidden Land's formation. Otherwise, how could two Mahayana Stage cultivators have been killed so easily? Besides, his two Mahayana Stage cultivators were no fools. Faced with such an encirclement, wouldn't they have explained the situation or fled?
The Six Paths Devil Emperor also knew some of the secrets surrounding the Holy Demon Female Immortal within the Holy Demon Forbidden Land. He knew he could only swallow this bitter loss in silence. He had no way to make trouble for the guardians, nor could he ask their superior to settle the matter.
The other side must have activated the formation, leaving his men unable to beg for mercy
