Ghost Mother went to look for the judge to see if she could get the children and artifact before the judge killed the two men. The demonic cultivator turned around and entered the house.
This house did not look big from the outside, but after entering, there were many sinister and cold rooms. Every room had a living person locked up or a corpse that had not been dealt with in time.
The demonic cultivator came to the last room and paused for a while.
“Damn it! Don’t even think about plotting against me! I’m not someone a scum like you can scheme against!”
A roar of boundless spiritual energy came from the room. It was the Great Void Stage old man.
The demonic cultivator had spent a lot of effort to capture him back, even though he was injured. His injuries were not serious, but it was very troublesome to recuperate. The Great Void Stage old man was a tough nut to crack. It was a little troublesome to eat him now. The demonic cultivator decided to wait for him to be weak for a few days in the Netherworld before taking action.
The demonic cultivator was not afraid that he would die just like that. After all, his realm was there, and the old man could struggle at death’s door for a long time. On the other hand, the disciples of the Holy Sects were not used to the nether energy of the Netherworld and were about to die.
Before they died, he had to suck their Yang energy.
The demonic cultivator turned around and came to the second last room. The three disciples of the Holy Sect were all locked inside. The door was opened, and a weak light shone in and shone on three Holy Sect’s disciples in green. The three of them fainted because they were too weak.
The demonic cultivator came to the three of them and squatted down. He grabbed a disciple of the Holy Sect by the neck with one hand and was about to suck his Yang energy into his body. However, at this moment, a golden flute flashed in and suddenly hit the demonic cultivator’s back.
The demonic cultivator was knocked to the ground by a huge force. Black smoke appeared from his back.
He gritted his teeth and suddenly turned around to glare fiercely at the uninvited guest at the door.
“Aiya!” Yan Xiaosi covered her eyes. “Why is it so ugly?”
The green-faced man with fangs should be referring to the man in front of him. Before coming in, Yan Xiaosi had imagined the culprit’s appearance countless times. Due to the fact that the ghost children were very ugly (although they were not born from Ghost Mother), this made Yan Xiaosi seriously doubt Ghost Mother’s aesthetics. Therefore, she did not have any illusions about the culprit covered by Ghost Mother.
But… she had still underestimated Ghost Mother’s aesthetics.
Yan Xiaosi hid behind the Demon Lord and grabbed his sleeve tightly. She stuck her head out and used only one eye to look at the demonic cultivator on the ground. The flute had seriously injured him. He lay on the ground panting and sweating profusely, making his appearance even more ferocious.
Yan Xiaosi looked at his two big fangs and could not help but touch his teeth. “How can someone’s teeth grow so big?”
“Because he’s not human,” the Demon Lord said as he looked down at the heavily injured demonic cultivator. “To be precise, he’s not a living person.”
The secret had been discovered, and a trace of extreme fear flashed across the
demonic cultivator’s eyes. However, this seemed to not only come from the secret being exposed. He looked at the Demon Lord and began to tremble uncontrollably.
“Xiao Zhao, he seems to be very afraid of you,” Yan Xiaosi said.
“Mm.” He was the Demon Lord and had absolute pressure on all demonic cultivators. Of course, demonic cultivators were afraid.
The demonic cultivator had probably recognized him the first time they fought Ghost Mother.
“You’re quite bold.” The Demon Lord walked up to the demonic cultivator step by step like a demon god in charge of life and death.
The demonic cultivator cowered and lowered his head to hide the abnormality that flashed across his eyes. He slowly reached into his sleeve. With a loud crack, the Demon Lord stepped on his hand bone and immediately broke his wrist.
The Demon Lord’s shoe ground on the broken bone of his hand. “You even dare to have designs on her. I think you’re really tired of living.”
The flute had been enlightened. Although it was powerful and could scare away the souls of malicious ghosts that touched it, the demonic cultivator was still not a malicious ghost. The flute’s effect on him was limited. The reason why he pretended to be so weak was because he wanted to lower his vigilance so that he could snatch the child in the basket.
Although the Demon Lord did not care about the life and death of the Holy Master, that small body belonged to Yan Xiaosi.
The demonic cultivator’s eyes widened in pain, but he could not scream at all.
When Yan Xiaosi thought about how he had injured so many innocent lives, she no longer had any sympathy for him. Yan Xiaosi walked over and asked, “Xiao Zhao, what did you mean by he’s not alive?”
The Demon Lord said, “He’s already dead. He relied on absorbing Yang energy to maintain his current appearance.”
“Ah? This… this is a corpse…” Yan Xiaosi was not afraid of corpses. In fact, other than being ugly, she was not afraid of anything. “Then is he still a demonic cultivator?”
The Demon Lord said, “He was once a demonic cultivator. Now… he’s a dead demonic cultivator.”
Yan Xiaosi nodded. “I understand. He’s dead, but he’s unwilling to reincarnate, so he absorbed the young man’s Yang energy to extend his life?”
The Demon Lord’s voice deepened. “There is no reincarnation for demonic cultivators.’
“Huh?” Yan Xiaosi looked at him in confusion.
He muttered, “Once you fall to the demonic path, you will never have a chance to reincarnate. After you die, your soul will dissipate and you will completely disappear from the six worlds.”
Yan Xiaosi scratched her little head. “In that case… aren’t the demons miserable? Then why are there still people who have become demons?”
The Demon Lord pondered and said, “Because they’re powerful. Demonic cultivators are stronger than righteous cultivators of the same realm. Some of them are born from mental demons, and…” He paused, not saying what else.
“Anyway, there are many reasons.”
“Oh.” Yan Xiaosi nodded in enlightenment.
The Demon Lord looked at the demonic cultivator who was struggling desperately. He was about to die, but he was still struggling in vain. “From the moment you became a demon, you should have understood your outcome. To think that you haven’t been mentally prepared to turn to ashes after cultivating for so many years?”
The demonic cultivator lay on the ground in pain.
Yan Xiaosi could feel the pain he emitted, as if he was enveloped by a huge sorrow. Did he not want to die so much?
The Demon Lord placed his hand on the demonic cultivator’s head. Yan Xiaosi understood that Xiao Zhao was going to end the other party.
Logically speaking, if they caught the culprit, they should bring him back and hand him over to the Holy Sect to deal with. However, she did not feel uncomfortable at all when Xiao Zhao killed him here. It was as if… he had more absolute and orthodox power to deal with demonic cultivators.
The demonic cultivator did not resist. However, Yan Xiaosi clearly saw that his eyes were filled with tears. At this moment, a chain shot in, wrapped around Yan Xiaosi’s waist, and pulled her out of the room.
Ghost Mother stood at the gloomy door and grabbed Yan Xiaosi’s throat with one hand. She said coldly, “Let go of Heng, or I’ll kill your friend!”
The Demon Lord narrowed his eyes and looked at her. His figure suddenly flashed.
Before Ghost Mother could even blink, she felt the other party appear in front of her like a ghost. Then, the person she was holding disappeared, replaced by her being grabbed by the neck and slammed into the cold wall.
It was not that the wall had collapsed, but that it had destroyed eighteen houses and eighteen walls. In the end, it pressed her against the edge of the Dharma artifact. She was the Ghost Mother. In the Netherworld, she had an immortal and indestructible body. However, at this moment, the bones in her back were shattered.
She spat out a mouthful of black fog. This was her soul energy. In the human world, she had vomited blood.
Ghost Mother had never known that this man was so powerful. He was clearly in the same realm as her, so how did he still defeat her in her territory? No, not win, crush her.
Ghost Mother’s soul aura overflowed. The people of the Netherworld did not have blood, so their soul aura was their blood. Once their soul aura dissipated, they would be reduced to ashes.
The demonic cultivator staggered through the large holes and came to the
Demon Lord’s side. He knelt down with a thud. “Master, please spare Ghost Mother. It’s all my fault. Ghost Mother was coerced by me. I’m willing to be punished. Master, please punish me!”
Master? Ghost Mother was dumbfounded. This young man who looked to be less than twenty years old was actually the new Demon Lord of the Demon Clan? That young man who was rumored to be even more talented and intelligent than the former Old Demon Lord?
How could it be him? He was even stronger than the rumors said.
“Xiao Zhao! Cough, cough, cough…” Yan Xiaosi also walked over. She had walked over with her legs. After crossing eighteen walls, she choked on the wall ash. “Xiao Zhao, where are you? Are you alright?”
The Demon Lord coldly threw down Ghost Mother and wiped his hands with a handkerchief. After wiping them clean, he reached out and held Yan Xiaosi, who had almost hit the wall.
Women were always especially sensitive in this aspect. When Ghost Mother saw how carefully the Demon Lord protected this young man, she felt that their relationship was probably not simple.
He did not expect the all-powerful Demon Lord to like men. At the critical moment of life and death, Ghost Mother couldn’t care less about the surprise in her heart. She only knew that all her hopes were on this man in white.
She Imelt in front of Yan Xiaosi and cried, “Young Master! Please let us go! We know our mistakes! We won’t dare to do it again!”
Yan Xiaosi said seriously, “Let you go? How can that do? You’ve harmed so many people!”
Ghost Mother burst into tears. “Young Master! It’s all my fault! If you want to kill me, kill me! Let Heng go! He’s innocent! I taught him to do this! I let him suck their Yang energy!”
“Stop talking!” The demonic cultivator stopped her. “I’ll take responsibility for my own actions. I’m the one who deserves to die, and I’m the one who should be reduced to ashes. You… you have to live.”
Ghost Mother cried, ‘What’s the use of me living alone? I…”
The demonic cultivator suddenly gave her a look, indicating for her to stop.
Yan Xiaosi suddenly realized that these two people were hiding something from them..
