The Black Tortoise Demon God in the main hall took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart.
A smile appeared on his face.
"I never imagined my master was so terrifying. He had only just arrived in the City of Slaughter when he silently took the Slaughter Immortal Sword. It's unbelievable."
"Just what level of strength does Master possess? As far as I know, Master is still very young."
"Moreover, this Slaughter Immortal Sword isn't something you can just take as you please. Even if it weren't guarded by twelve demon gods, and even if we twelve demon gods were too lazy to bother with it, seizing the Slaughter Immortal Sword would be virtually impossible."
"The location of the Slaughter Immortal Sword possesses an unimaginably powerful sealing force. That sealing force is not something ordinary people can withstand. Even the 12 of us, without working together, cannot get close to the Slaughter Immortal Sword."
"The current Slaughter Immortal Sword has absorbed too much killing energy, becoming extremely terrifying and giving birth to a weapon spirit. It is almost impossible for the Slaughter Immortal Sword to recognize its master, yet the master has accomplished everything silently."
"He truly deserves to be the future leader of the Su Clan."
"Only Lineage as powerful as this could produce such a monstrous talent."
"I originally thought Su Ming of the Su Clan was exceptionally talented, but now I realize that compared to my master, Su Ming is quite inferior."
" Su Ming's talent is not bad, but it's absolutely impossible for him to obtain the Slaughter Immortal Sword silently."
"If we can successfully complete this task and help our master take control of the City of Slaughter, we will achieve tremendous merit, and then I will be able to follow our master and establish unparalleled achievements."
A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the Black Tortoise Demon God, revealing excitement.
The Black Tortoise Demon God holds an incomparably noble status in the City of Slaughter, but compared to the Imperial Su Clan, he is still far inferior, since the City of Slaughter is currently merely a royal power.
Of course, it refers to the most powerful royal families.
"This matter must be accomplished this time. All the city lords must be completely subjugated and become their master's allies."
The Black Tortoise Demon God took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions.
The next moment.
He activated a token in his hand, and in that instant, the token slowly floated up.
Within the token, a blinding divine light erupted in an instant, forming a light screen in front of the Black Tortoise Demon God.
A moment later, a figure appeared within the light screen.
He was an extremely burly-looking man with eyes that instilled fear in people; his eyes seemed capable of dragging one's soul into hell.
"Big brother, something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!"
The moment the figure appeared in the light screen, the Black Tortoise Demon God's face showed a look of panic, and at the same time, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead. He looked completely lost and panicked.
The being appearing in the light screen at this moment is none other than the number one person in the City of Slaughter, the Azure Dragon Demon God.
" Black Tortoise, what happened? Why are you so panicked?"
"Could someone be trying to destroy my City of Slaughter?"
The Azure Dragon Demon God narrowed his eyes slightly at that moment, coldly staring at the Black Tortoise Demon God.
Upon hearing the Azure Dragon Demon God's words, the Black Tortoise Demon God was not surprised at all.
Such is the nature of the Azure Dragon Demon God; his entire being cultivates the Dao of Slaughter, making him appear cold and ruthless.
"Big brother, no, no, with Big Brother and Second Brother in charge, which force would dare to act recklessly in my City of Slaughter?"
"The reason I'm like this is because something big has happened."
Even now, the Black Tortoise Demon God's face still showed signs of panic, and he even appeared to stutter.
Upon seeing the appearance of the Azure Dragon Demon God within the light screen, the Black Tortoise Demon God's eyes flashed with a cold glint, and he said coldly.
Tell me, what exactly happened?
The Azure Dragon Demon God was also extremely puzzled at this moment, wondering what had caused the Black Tortoise Demon God to become like this.
"Brother, haven't you noticed yet? That's impossible, that's impossible!"
However, upon hearing the Azure Dragon Demon God's words, the Black Tortoise Demon God immediately shook his head, his face filled with disbelief.
Upon hearing the words of the Black Tortoise Demon God Azure Dragon Demon God's expression turned completely cold. However, this wasn't directed at the Black Tortoise Demon God, but rather a question of what had happened to cause such a sudden change in the Black Tortoise Demon God's demeanor.
" Black Tortoise, tell me, what exactly happened?"
In that instant, the Azure Dragon Demon God also realized the seriousness of the situation.
Sensing the Azure Dragon Demon God's sudden seriousness, the Black Tortoise Demon God did not continue his act.
"Brother Azure Dragon, something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened! The Slaughter Immortal Sword we used to suppress and protect has disappeared!"
" The Slaughter Immortal Sword is gone."
"In recent days, some unidentified individuals have entered my Black Tortoise Demon City. Perhaps it is these people who are responsible. Today, I have sealed off the entire city and am searching for the suspects."
The moment the Black Tortoise Demon God's voice rang out, the Azure Dragon Demon God's face showed a hint of displeasure.
" Black Tortoise, what nonsense are you spouting? We, the twelve Demon Gods, are personally guarding this place. Do you think anyone could take the Slaughter Immortal Sword right under our noses? Besides, don't you know that the Slaughter Immortal Sword has already given birth to a weapon spirit? The Slaughter Immortal Sword is incredibly powerful. Do you think it's easy to let the Slaughter Immortal Sword take it away?"
"You think it's possible to make the Slaughter Immortal Sword recognize you as its master and then take it away silently right under my nose?"
However, at that moment, the Azure Dragon Demon God shook his head upon hearing the Black Tortoise Demon God Black Tortoise Demon God's words, utterly disbelieving them; in his view, it was absolutely impossible.
Otherwise, wouldn't all twelve of them be considered useless?
"Brother Azure Dragon, how could I possibly lie to you? This is an extremely important matter; it's the City of Slaughter."
"How is this possible? How is this possible? How could I be the only one who discovered this? Could it be that there's a problem on my side of Black Tortoise Demon City?"
The Black Tortoise Demon God muttered to himself, his face filled with panic.
The Azure Dragon Demon God, who had initially paid no attention, showed a look of confusion upon hearing the Black Tortoise Demon God's words.
Although he didn't believe it at all, the Azure Dragon Demon God still sensed it for a moment.
The next moment, the Azure Dragon Demon God discovered the location of the Slaughter Immortal Sword, but the Slaughter Immortal Sword had already vanished without a trace.
However.
The formation there remained completely undamaged.
This scene caused the Azure Dragon Demon God's pupils to contract sharply, and he became incredibly angry, like a ferocious beast ready to devour anyone at any moment.
"Damn it, damn it, what happened? Who took the Slaughter Immortal Sword? It belongs to my master! It belongs to my master!"
"How can I explain the loss of this item?"
The Azure Dragon Demon God's expression changed completely in that instant; he never expected that everything the Black Tortoise Demon God had said was actually true.
The Azure Dragon Demon God nearly lost his mind for a moment.
A moment later, his sharp gaze fixed on the Black Tortoise Demon God.
" Black Tortoise, have you really discovered something amiss in Black Tortoise Demon City?"
The Azure Dragon Demon God's voice was incredibly cold.
"Brother Azure Dragon, I did indeed sense the changes in Black Tortoise City, and I immediately checked the Slaughter Immortal Sword, but I found that Slaughter Immortal Sword was gone."
"Now, I have fully activated the formation, preventing anyone from freely entering or leaving. I believe the Slaughter Immortal Sword Slaughter Immortal Sword still in Black Tortoise City, but the fact that the other party was able to take it away silently means their strength is absolutely astonishing. Even if I were to discover them, I would be no match for them."
"Furthermore, my intervention would alert the enemy, so I contacted Brother Azure Dragon immediately. I would appreciate Azure Dragon advice."
The Black Tortoise Demon God looked anxious, even reaching out to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
" Black Tortoise, absolutely do not allow any flaws in the formation. We will arrive soon. If the Slaughter Immortal Sword is still in Black Tortoise City, no one will be able to take it away from the City of Slaughter Immortal Sword."
In that instant, terrifyingly cold light flashed from the eyes of the Azure Dragon Demon God.
The light screen in front of the Black Tortoise Demon God vanished instantly.
The Black Tortoise Demon God reached out and caught the token.
"I hope you all come, and that nothing unexpected happens."
As the voice faded, the Black Tortoise Demon God's calm voice rang out.
"Someone come here."
Outside the main hall, a figure hurriedly entered and immediately knelt down.
"What are your orders, Lord Demon God?"
The person kneeling on one knee before the Black Tortoise Demon God spoke with a solemn expression.
"Immediately activate the Black Tortoise City protective formation. I have lost an important treasure; you must find it for me as quickly as possible."
"Quickly, activate the formation immediately to prevent those thieves who stole my things from leaving the ancient city as soon as possible."
At this moment, the voice of the Black Tortoise Demon God was almost a roar.
The figure kneeling in the main hall, upon hearing that the Black Tortoise Demon God had lost something, panicked and, without any hesitation, left the hall as quickly as possible.
She knew very well that if she hesitated in the slightest and wasted time, she would most likely be killed by the Black Tortoise Demon God.
In just a moment, the protective formation of the entire ancient city was fully activated.
Commands were issued from the main hall, and countless powerful figures began to investigate who had approached Black Tortoise Palace.
After finishing everything, the Black Tortoise Demon God took a deep breath and waited quietly. The Black Tortoise Demon God knew very well that it wouldn't be long before the other 11 demon gods would appear here. After all, the loss of the Slaughter Immortal Sword was the most important thing in the City of Slaughter, without exception.
Sure enough, several hours later.
The teleportation array in Black Tortoise Ancient City lit up, and figures instantly appeared. The moment these figures appeared, a terrifying aura erupted, and they headed straight for the Black Tortoise Palace without any pause.
Sensing the power of the teleportation array, the Black Tortoise Demon God broke out in a sweat and waited anxiously in front of the Black Tortoise Palace.
The Black Tortoise Demon God did not stand there quietly, but paced back and forth with an uneasy expression.
In just a moment, two terrifying auras descended, namely the Azure Dragon Demon God and the White Tiger Demon God.
"My two elder brothers, you've finally arrived! I've already activated the Black Tortoise City formation. If that person is still inside Black Tortoise City, there's no way he could have left."
"I wonder if the other city lords will arrive. To be able to take the Slaughter Immortal Sword so quietly, the opponent's strength is definitely beyond our imagination. If it's just the few of us, we might not be his match."
The Azure Dragon Demon God's gaze turned extremely cold in that instant.
" Black Tortoise, calm down. The other demons will arrive soon. Let's go into the Black Tortoise Palace first, and then you can tell us exactly what happened."
The White Tiger Demon God, whose eyes were filled with savagery, nodded.
After all, although they were extremely anxious, they still didn't know the ins and outs of the matter. In their view, the Black Tortoise Demon God, being the first to know about the loss of the Slaughter Immortal Sword, should know some information.
"Well."
"Brothers, please follow me into the Black Tortoise Palace."
The Black Tortoise Demon God invited the Azure Dragon and White Tiger Demon Gods into the Black Tortoise Palace. The other demon gods also arrived one after another, and within just a quarter of an hour, all the demon gods had gathered in the palace.
" Black Tortoise, tell me what exactly happened? Why did the Slaughter Immortal Sword Slaughter Immortal Sword suddenly disappear? And why didn't we sense it disappear at all?"
In that instant, one of the demon gods' gazes fell upon the Black Tortoise Demon God. At that moment, he suspected that Black Tortoise was behind it all. Black Tortoise was one of the twelve guardians, and although the possibility was extremely low, it was still possible.
Otherwise, why did none of them sense it, but Black Tortoise did?
Hearing the other party's words, the Black Tortoise Demon God was not surprised at all.
At this moment, eleven demon gods have gathered, and the Black Tortoise Demon God has already activated the Black Tortoise Palace's formation. There is absolutely no way for these people to leave.
"Please be patient, everyone. I've called you here to discuss something."
"This is not a discussion about the Slaughter Immortal Sword."
The panic on Black Tortoise Demon God's face vanished, replaced by utter composure.
"You..."
A series of incredibly sharp gazes locked onto the Black Tortoise Demon God in that instant.
However.
Before they could even make a move, a terrifyingly powerful domain suddenly descended from the sky behind the palace.
A demon god who had just tried to get up was instantly suppressed by that terrifying domain power.
The Azure Dragon Demon God and the White Tiger Demon God, the strongest beings in the City of Slaughter, also showed disbelief on their faces at that moment. They never expected that there would be such a terrifying existence behind Black Tortoise.
" Black Tortoise, how dare you betray us?"
"Don't you know we have powerful backers? Do you think your backer can suppress that force?"
The suppressed demon god had an icy expression.
The two demon gods, Azure Dragon and White Tiger, remained silent, their gazes involuntarily drawn to Su Xiuyi was slowly approaching.
Su Xiuyi was completely calm, but in that instant, she seemed to become the center of the universe.
The strongest Azure Dragon Demon God and White Tiger Demon God showed fear on their faces, sensing danger emanating from Su Xiuyi.
" Black Tortoise pays respects to its master; all eleven demon gods have gathered."
Upon seeing Su Xiuyi approach step by step, the Black Tortoise Demon God immediately bowed.
Su Xiuyi ignored those icy gazes.
