Chapter 4036: The base of the Demon Race
Ling Han and the large black dog walked into the mountains, while the large black dog talked about the battle situation after Ling Han left.
It was very tragic, with many people and Demonic Beasts dying. However, most of them were natives of this place, and not many outsiders had died.
Precisely because both sides had suffered heavy losses, the generals on both sides called for a retreat.
“Grandpa Dog!”
“Grandpa Dog!”
When they entered into the camp of the Tiger King, they saw that there were minor demons calling out to the large black dog along the way, looking like they were trying to curry his favour.
“Yi, you seem to be doing quite well?” Ling Han found this a little strange.
“Of course,” the large black dog said proudly. “Grandpa Dog almost became sworn brothers with that tiger. How can these lackeys not flatter Grandpa Dog?”
Ling Han clicked his tongue. He hadn’t spent much time hunting down Fu Huoyang, yet the large black dog had already developed such a strong “friendship” with the Tiger King. This was truly impressive.
“How did you, er, lie to the tiger?” he asked, smiling.
“What lie!” The large black dog’s expression was filled with righteousness, “Grandpa Dog only shared his views on underpants with him.”
Ling Han was instantly speechless. This damn dog was really too indecent.
This was the territory of the Demonic Beasts, and the Demonic Beasts’ aesthetic tastes were naturally completely different from humans’. The buildings here were all built of stone, and there was no beauty to be seen at all, but it was really rugged.
“Brother Black!” They had not even walked to the largest stone house, when they saw the Blue Demon Tiger King come out to receive them, his face all smiles, “Come, come, come. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
“Brother Tiger!” The large black dog nodded, his face full of smiles, looking extremely despicable.
Ling Han couldn’t bear to watch, and turned his head away.
They entered into this stone house. Actually, this should be considered a great hall. It was very wide and tall inside, and there were multiple stones placed there. They could be considered stools, and most of them were occupied.
Ling Han swept an eye over them, and already knew what was going on. These were basically the members of the Demon Race from the outsiders.
“Ling Han!”
Seeing Ling Han enter, a considerable number of Demon Race elites immediately stood up, revealing covetous expressions.
Even the Imperial Son had been defeated, which caused Ling Han to become completely popular. As long as they were prodigy-level, most of them had seen Ling Han’s appearance before. This was an opponent that they had to be extremely wary of.
Now, everyone was clearly separated. The Human Race was on the side of the Galewind Nation, while the Demon Race was on the other side. Yet, you, a mere human, had come here. What was the meaning of this?
“Yi, you are a human?” The Blue Demon Tiger King asked, his voice booming, bringing with it endless might.
The large black dog hurriedly said, “Brother Tiger, don’t be anxious. My brother is a human with a beast in his heart. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have become his best friend.”
“Humph, those who are not of our race must have ulterior motives!” A Demon Race member declared coldly. He had a pair of goat horns on his head. This was obviously a deliberate manifestation, showing that he was a member of the Demon Race.
The large black dog immediately retorted, and said, “Hehe, speaking of non-humans, it seems like you’re not a member of the Tiger Race either, right? Grandpa Dog doesn’t think that you look to have a very righteous heart either! Moreover, you should be a member of the Goat Race, and your race have been devoured quite a bit by the Tiger Race. You must be displeased with Brother Tiger!”
That Demon Race cultivator was so infuriated that the corners of his mouth twitched. He was a member of the Iron Goat Race. This race was born powerful, so how could they be eaten by a tiger?
“Bullsh*t, our Iron Goat Tribe has produced a Demonic Saint before, what elite of the Tiger Race have we not killed before?” he couldn’t help but retort.
However, as soon as the words left his mouth, he knew that he was done for.
“Humph, you’ve even killed a tiger before?” The Blue Demon Tiger King glared over, its eyes filled with might, exuding a powerful killing intent.
“No! No!” That member of the Iron Goat Race said, “That is a matter of my ancestors, and has nothing to do with me.”
“Little lamb, don’t you know what a father’s debt is repaid by his son?” the large black dog said calmly. “Brother Tiger, I think this guy doesn’t look like a good person at first glance. With such a protruding back of his head, he must be rebellious!”
That Iron Goat Race member really wanted to come up and fight the large black dog to the death. ‘Do I have any enmity with you? Is there any need to smear my name so harshly?’
The Blue Demon Tiger King did not respond at the first instant, but rather looked coldly at the Iron Goat Race member.
“Hehe, everyone calm down!” A tall, slender man stood up, and waved his hand at the Blue Demon Tiger King and Iron Goat Race member. “In the end, we are all members of the Demon Race, and are all descendants of the primitive Divine Beasts, so we can be considered a family. However, this human is a different story!”
He pointed at Ling Han, and changed the topic.
The Iron Goat Race member thought that this was right. His original intention for stepping out was to reveal Ling Han’s identity as a human. At the very least, he wanted to chase Ling Han away. Why had the large black dog changed the topic, dragging himself into the matter? Meanwhile, Ling Han said to the Blue Demon Tiger King, “Lord Tiger King, may I speak with you in private?”
The Blue Demon Tiger King glanced at him, and nodded slowly, “All right.”
He was at the True Self Tier, and his strength was also formidable. If he exchanged blows with a cultivator of the same cultivation level, one of him could match two of them. Thus, he was completely unafraid that Ling Han would play any tricks.
The two of them arrived at a secluded place. Ling Han took out Fu Huoyang’s corpse, tossed it onto the ground, and said, “Milord, can this prove my sincerity?”
The eyes of the Blue Demon Tiger King immediately lit up. Though he had not taken Fu Huoyang seriously, he had seen how Fu Huoyang had gone on a killing spree, and slaughtered a considerable number of his subordinates. His abilities were definitely extraordinary.
“I trust you!” He nodded, a smile appearing on his face.
“However, this person’s identity is extraordinary. Please keep it a secret for me, Lord,” Ling
Han said.
“All right.” The Blue Demon Tiger King nodded.
They returned to the stone house, and the Blue Demon Tiger King immediately announced, “From this moment onwards, no one is allowed to speak of Ling Han’s human identity again. If you speak of this again, don’t blame me for taking actions!”
This caused all the Demon Race elites to feel surprised. Just what had Ling Han said to the Blue Demon Tiger King that he had managed to convince him so quickly?
“Tiger King, when are we going to attack the Imperial Capital of the Human Race?” someone
asked.
The Blue Demon Tiger King pondered for a moment, “This is extremely difficult!”
“If we join forces with the other Demonic Beasts, how could it be that we won’t be able to conquer the human race?” another person asked.
The Blue Demon Tiger King shook his head slowly, “The human race has deep roots, and is not as weak as we think! Us great Demon Kings, as well as our ancestors, have tried to conquer the Imperial Capital of the human race, generation after generation, and all ended in failure.” Everyone exchanged looks. According to their understanding, there were at most ten True Self Tier elites in the human race, and in the case of the Demon Race, not only were there even more True Self Tier elites, but their battle prowess was also terrifying. One of them was equivalent to two of them, so how could they not be able to break through the defenses of the
human race?
“Humans have a powerful weapon that will unleash its might at the most critical moment.” The Azure Demon Tiger King shook its head, “My father was severely wounded by that powerful weapon, and died when he was only two thousand years old.”
What kind of deadly weapon was so awesome?
Was this a treasure that had been left behind by Divine Rain Venerate?
Everyone’s eyes lit up. They had finally found out a sliver of the secret of Divine Rain
Venerate’s inheritance.
However, the Blue Demon Tiger King stopped here, and did not continue this topic. He even
told everyone to go and rest.
With this shooing order, everyone naturally could only leave.
