Lu Yu’s eyes suddenly flew open as he turned his gaze toward the source of the murderous aura.
Beneath a black robe, a pair of blood-red eyes was staring at him.
Those bloodshot eyes were different from the blood eyes of ordinary demon lords; they were more sinister, as if blood were actually dripping from them. If you looked closely, the blood eyes resembled swirling vortexes of blood, capable of sucking in anyone’s soul.
Lu Yu said coldly, “By getting this close to me, aren’t you just making me die faster?”
Huāgyǐng covered her mouth with a light laugh, leaning her head on Lùyǔ’s shoulder, looking very happy: “Then you’re wrong. This means you’re definitely dead. Unless you help me complete the mission, then I’ll guarantee your survival!”
Lu Yu scoffed coldly, “You’ve truly stopped at nothing to obtain the dragon corpse! Now that you’ve achieved your goal, shouldn’t you keep your distance from me?”
“Yeah, I’ve achieved my goal.” Huang Ying sighed softly, lowering her head in mild disappointment, her eyes glistening faintly with tears.
Huang Ying quietly wiped away the tears from her eyes, and when she lifted her head again, her alluring smile had returned.
Lu Yu said, “You said not to provoke the Demon King of Slaughter, is he really that strong?”
The Shadow of Desolation spoke solemnly, “The first-generation Slayer of the Blood Moon was originally known as the Spirit of Death. He only changed his title from Spirit of Death to Slayer of the Blood Moon after he defeated the inheritor of the Blood Moon’s legacy!”
Lu Yu pretended to be surprised and said, “A Killer Star Soul inheritor? What is that? I’ve heard of Mutated Star Souls before—could a Killer Star Soul be a type of Mutated Star Soul?”
Huāgyǐng nodded and said, “You’re correct. Humans possess nine mutant star souls in total, and they govern humanity’s destiny. Without these nine star souls, humanity would likely have been eradicated by the demon race long ago. Throughout history, the inheritors of the Killing Legacy have always been the strongest among humans—can you imagine how difficult it must be to slay such an inheritor? Legend has it that the Lich Demon Lord not only killed one of the Killing Legacy inheritors but also tore out those blood-red eyes directly from the inheritor’s body.”
Lu Yu couldn’t help but glance a few more times at the Lord of Slaughter before shifting his gaze away and asking seriously, “What makes the Lord of Slaughter so special? If we encounter him, is there any way to escape?”
“Escape? With your strength, do you still think you can run away?” Huang Ying sneered. “Don’t leave my side, the Lord of Slaughter won’t dare to lay a hand on you.”
“So?” Lu Yu didn’t ask further.
No wonder Xinghun had such a reaction; it turns out they’ve encountered an old enemy.
Lu Yu struggled to suppress the fluctuation of his Star Soul, then began to size up the opponents around him.
Xiao Xiao goes without saying.
Fire Dance will bring Xiaoxiao, and with the combined forces of Huang Ying and Fire Dance, there’s nothing to worry about.
As for the remaining three individuals brought by the three demon lords—Li Hun, Ye Mo, and Sha Lu—two of them possessed auras at the peak of the seventh level, while the aura of the third person seemed even stronger.
However, Lu Yu couldn’t be sure whether this person had already reached the eighth level of Star Soul.
The person brought by Li Hun is Lei Hong, the one brought by Ye Mo is Yang Lin, and the one brought by Sha Lu is Liu Xing!
Huang Ying didn’t know what kind of dragon abilities the three of them truly possessed.
Lu Yu also learned from Huang Ying that this time, it wasn’t just them, the魔主, who were coming!
On the third day after Lu Yu arrived in this city, another Demon Lord arrived with two people!
Arriving with two people at once greatly surprised Huang Ying and the others.
If dragonlings were so easy to find, the great魔主s wouldn’t be searching everywhere for humans bearing the aura of dragons.
Dragonlings rarely appear in public unless they evolve to level nine. Below level nine, you won’t be able to catch them!
Level nine and above, even the Demon Lord must be cautious!
Therefore, obtaining the power of the Dragon Clan is not that easy!
Once multiple powerful beings approach the dragonling, the dragonling will surely vanish.
Therefore, to kill a young dragon, it must be done one-on-one.
The opportunity to encounter a young dragon is even more rare and precious.
Even a powerful figure like the Demon Lord had to seek help from humans, which shows how rare it is to find someone with the bloodline of a dragon.
A devil king once brought two people with dragon blood, which might enable these two to go further.
Among these two individuals, one was similarly cloaked in a black robe, entirely enveloped in dark aura, not revealing even a hint of their appearance.
This person was extremely mysterious, following behind the Demon Lord and another individual, with an aura so faint that it was barely perceptible.
Huang Ying, upon seeing this Demon Lord, had a slight tremble in his expression, his lips turning somewhat pale. He edged closer to Lu Yu and gritted his teeth, whispering, “Xie Ming, the Demon Lord of the Underworld, kills without mercy. If you provoke him, he will strike without hesitation, no matter where you are! And—”
Huang Ying’s snow-white teeth bit down on her lower lip. Seeing the sudden arrival of the Demon Lord, her expression became even more strained.
“Wild Shadow!” Xie Ming saw Wild Shadow and signaled his two subordinates to stop. He then walked forward alone, a sinister smile on his face. He stopped a few meters in front of Wild Shadow. His eyes, hidden beneath the black hood, shamelessly scanned Wild Shadow’s face, neck, chest, and even his lower abdomen and thighs.
That gaze was a nakedly lustful one, as if savoring the sight of a perfect body.
“You’re getting more beautiful!” Xie Ming extended his hand, reaching toward Huang Ying’s chin.
Huang Ying’s face suddenly turned cold, and he quickly stepped back to evade Xie Ming’s hand.
Xie Ming’s hand did not touch Huang Ying, and he looked at her with slight displeasure, coldly asking, “Huang Ying, have you thought about what I asked you recently?”
Huáng Yǐng clenched her hands tightly, her delicate body trembling slightly.
Seeing the state of Huang Ying, Xie Ming seemed to understand something and laughed loudly: “I’ll give you some more time to think. But—”
Xie Ming paused, then spoke in a deep, domineering tone: “One month. One month from now, if you still haven’t given me an answer, I will personally come to your Demon City!”
After finishing his words, Xie Ming turned around without even glancing at Lu Yu.
The other魔主s, well aware of邪冥’s temperament, couldn’t help but turn their gaze toward荒影, curious to see what荒影 would do next.
It was obvious that Xie Ming’s aura and strength far surpassed Huang Ying’s, which was why Huang Ying dared not make a move.
Lei Hong and others sneered, looking at Lu Yu in a provocative manner.
Even Huang Ying, the master, was teased by Xie Ming, who dared not utter a single word in response.
By now, serving as the Demon Lord has allowed one to discern clearly who is strong and who is weak.
Since the host, the Demon Lord, was like this, naturally those who followed him also felt unimpressed!
Moreover, when Huang Ying was being humiliated, Lu Yu was even sitting aside the entire time with his eyes closed and saying nothing, which made Lei Hong and others feel even more disdainful, thinking that Lu Yu was simply too afraid to act.
Xie Ming strode back to the two people who had accompanied him, sat cross-legged, and spoke with great arrogance and haughtiness, “Why hasn’t it started yet? Who else is missing?”
The Night Demon said coldly, “Xie Ming, you’ve waited for over a year, can’t you wait for a few more days?”
Xie Ming’s voice turned cold as he said, “How could it merely be over a year? Counting the time we’ve spent asleep, who can even calculate how many chances we’ve missed? Most importantly, if we keep waiting, can you guarantee how much treasure from the dragon’s nest you’ll be able to seize?”
Xie Ming’s words left all the Demon Lords speechless!
Although the deeper you go into the dragon’s lair, the more difficult it becomes.
However, even in the frontmost area, not every section contains treasures that satisfy people’s expectations.
A treasure might be fought over by multiple people.
The more people there are, the lower the chance of success becomes.
Although Xie Ming is domineering, what he said makes a lot of sense!
Huowu spoke, her voice hoarse and rugged like Fan Tian’s, saying, “This message was provided by the Blood Sea Devil King. If we shake him off, can any of you still trust others in the future and send the information you obtain to others?”
Xie Ming nodded in agreement this time, saying, “The Demon King Fan Tian is right. We must wait for the Blood Sea; indeed, if he doesn’t come, there is no reason to enter.”
The words of Huo Wu were unanimously agreed upon by all the demon lords.
Huang Ying walked to Lu Yu’s side, clenched her teeth, and coldly said, “Lu Yu, no matter who the Xie Ming brings, as long as you can surpass those two people, you can name any condition you want!”
This time, Huang Ying put away her usual playfulness and coquettishness. She was now enveloped in an icy aura, and even the people around could feel the chill radiating from this gorgeous and alluring woman.
Xie Ming didn’t seem to care, instead eyeing Huang Ying with interest. He laughed heartily, “Now that’s more like it! No wonder she’s the woman I admire. Huang Ying, make sure to let me know once you’ve made your decision. I’ll present three cities as a gift and invite all the Demon Lords to attend—haha!”
Huang Ying’s body trembled slightly once again, her lips turned purple, and her delicate figure quivered with rage.
Gao Hong and the others finally understood that Xie Ming had actually asked Huang Ying to consider the matter of marriage.
Looking at Huang Ying’s attitude toward Xie Ming, it was clearly filled with helplessness and powerlessness!
Everyone secretly thought: Is there really such a huge gap in strength among the Demon Lords? It seems this woman is very weak; she won’t last long!
Everyone began to speculate in their hearts.
As for Lu Yu, he had always maintained that calm and composed expression and attitude. Even when Huang Ying made a significant promise, he remained unmoved, simply saying in a mild tone: “You’re paying me to do the job, and I will certainly give my best effort. As for whether we can surpass them, that is beyond my control.”
As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, a blood-colored shadow emerged from a rift in the sky above the mine. Then, blood clouds swirled downward, carrying two figures with them as they descended to the ground.
“Haha, now everyone’s here!”
“The Blood Sea Demon Clan has arrived.”
Night Demon and Li Hun burst into laughter.
The blood cloud parted, and within it stood a man clad in crimson armor, with blood-colored dragon patterns coiling around him.
The dragon pattern on this person’s blood armor resembled a fierce and ferocious dragon, with blood dripping from its claws!
Lu Yu lightly furrowed his brows, sensing that the patterns on this armor bore a striking resemblance to the techniques used on Huowu’s Fire Dragon Armor.
However, the dragon patterns above are not the same!
Another one was a person. This individual stood with hands clasped behind his back, proudly surveying the people around him, and said, “Lord of the Blood Sea, are these my opponents?”
The one wearing blood-red armor is naturally the Blood Sea Demon Lord!
When this person spoke to the Blood Sea Demon Lord with such arrogance and not the slightest hint of reverence, even Xie Ming could not help but glance sideways in surprise.
“Where did this human come from, daring to be so arrogant? Seeking death!” The great demon lords roared in unison, their surging murderous intent descending like a sea of thunder from the heavens.
Boom!
The blood armor on Xuehai suddenly trembled and emitted a bloody shadow resembling a ferocious dragon. As soon as this blood shadow appeared, it instantly shattered the oppressive killing auras of the several demonic lords.
The Sea of Blood said coldly, “The people I brought here, who among you dares to enter the Dragon’s Nest after injuring them?”
“What an arrogant human! It’s rare to see someone so bold. I’d like to see what makes him so confident!” Xie Ming sneered, rising to his feet.
Lu Yu’s eyes were also fixed on that person at this moment. He stood up almost simultaneously with Xie Ming, his voice cold as he said, “Lu Tianming, I never expected it to be you!”
Lu Yu, who had never even deigned to glance at the Devil Lord, sprang into action like a beast upon seeing Lu Tianming.
