Chapter 770: Eight-headed Haoyue (III) (1/2)
Green light gushed into the air as pillars, before slowly dissipating.
The ground trembled and the forest groaned. Cracks just appeared in the air out of nowhere.
The Demon God Emperor stood among the green pillars of light quietly as he looked at a green, illusory figure in the distance.
“Stop struggling. I’ve already destroyed the Illusory Shrine. The Illusory Paradise will collapse very soon. The fairy dragon has died to my hands as well. Even if you’ve taken away its fairy heart, it’s useless. The fairy dragon’s fairy heart is the best recovery medicine there is; it basically can bring you back from the dead. However, it’s useless to you. I know that you are the god left behind by the Goddess of Nature. It is an honour for you to be able to fuse with me soul.”
The Demon God Emperor Fengxiu’s voice was very gentle. Even though his surroundings were filled with spatials cracks, they did nothing to him. The green figure in the distance became clearer and clearer as the aura of life from the pillars of green life grew weaker and weaker.
“Quit dreaming. Even if I have to blow it up, I won’t give it to you,” Ye Xialei’s cold voice was filled with hatred. Her home had been destroyed and the fairy dragon that had guarded the Illusory Shrine for all these years had been killed as well. Her hatred for the Demon God Emperor had reached the limit.
The Demon God Emperor smiled, “Do you think you can blow up the god? Before me, anything you try is useless. I’m already half a god. Even if you blow up the god, I can reconstruct it and absorb it. I am the one in charge here. You’re just using the spatial cracks that have appeared after the Illusory Paradise has shattered to make some time. I’ve waited for all these years, so I do have the patience to wait a little longer.”
Ye Xiaolei fell silent. She knew that the Demon God Emperor was telling the truth. He was just too powerful. When he had killed the fairy dragon, he actually became in control of everything.
When Ye Xiaolian who slumbered in the Illusory Shrine felt the fairy dragon fall in battle, everything was already too late. The Illusionary Paradise was her home. Her roots were here. She was like a fruit growing on a great tree. If the tree died, then she would only be picked away or she would have to die as well. Without a doubt, the Demon God Emperor had come to pick her.
Can he save me? Ye Xiaoling was filled with sorrow. She did not know either. Even if he had really come, how was he supposed to save her from the Demon God Emperor? The Demon God Emperor was so powerful such that even if the Goddess of Nature was brought back there, she would not necessarily be able to defeat the Demon God Emperor. After all, the Goddess of Nature was not a god adept in battle!
The Demon God Emperor stood with his hands behind his back as he silently felt the aura of life that the Illusory Paradise gave off. His cultivation of spiritual energy had already reached a state where he had returned to simplicity; even though the aura of life conflicted with his darkness, it did not affect him at all.
It was possible to see from high up in the sky that a faint layer of violet-black colour enveloped the entire area fifty kilometers away. No aura could pass through this barrier. As a result, even the nearby Southern Mountain Pass was unable to discover anything going on here. But even if they did find out, so what? Who could stop the current Demon God Emperor?
Looking at the distant horizon, the Demon God Emperor suddenly felt rather agitated, because his emotions actually became momentarily mixed.
Was he really still alive? He thought about this piece of shocking news. Although the Star Demon God had guaranteed a second time that Long Haochen’s aura was already gone, for some reason, his heart continued to weigh heavily after he had heard of this.
Of course, he did not believe Long Haochen was still alive. He knew just too well whether he really did blow up Long Haochen’s heart with that gesture of his finger with his cultivation. It was impossible for any accidents to happen.
Did a necromancer resurrect him as undead?
The Demon God Emperor could help but let a fierce gleam of light flash through his eyes when he thought of that. No matter how much he wished Long Hoachen to die, he still felt a special feeling towards Long Haochen. Only he was able to harm him. If a necromancer really had brought him back as undead, the Demon God Emperor would definitely make him understand the meaning of wishing he was dead. He would make the pain last for a thousand years, tempering his soul until death.
After all, he was that outstanding! When he thought of Long Haochen, the Demon God Emperor felt very helpless. He could even get Austin Griffin to form a blood pact with him. This was no longer something talent could achieve. Although the Demon God Emperor was not familiar with the process involved, he knew that Long Haochen must have succeeded under special circumstances.
If it were not for Austin Griffin, would he be able to persuade him to return to the demons in the end or even become his successor as Demon God Emperor?
Perhaps not. He was just too stubborn. If he had known earlier, he should have taken Long Haochen back to the demons with him the first time he had seen him and begin twisting his thoughts back then. Only then would there be a chance.
