Chapter 838: Long Haochen’s Ancestry? (III) (1/2)

Agares possessed a human bloodline in the first place. And, after he became an adult, he became more and more influenced by human culture. At the same time, he became more and more disgusted by his identity as a demon, which w3as why his most beloved consort also happened to be a human. However, even among the Moon Demon Clan, the subordinates that Agares truly trusted only form a third of the clan, with even fewer people knowing this secret. He was forced to be cautious! He wanted to overthrow the Demon God Emperor’s reign, yet he also held deep fear towards the Demon God Emperor. Exactly because he was the closest to the Demon God Emperor, he knew the terror of the Demon God Emperor the best.

However, the Demon God Emperor and the Star Demon God’s trap against Long Haochen last time was planned out just too prudently. Even Agares did not know about the crucial parts. When he returned to core city with the Demon God Emperor, he knew something wrong had happened. However, he had always been by the Demon God Emperor’s side back then, so he was unable to pass on the news, which lead to Long Haochen’s death.

During the few years after Long Haochen’s ‘death’, not only did Yue Ye vanish, Agares also controlled his organisation in a more secretive manner. He knew that there were probably no more chances left for him.

However, he had never imagined that Long Haochen would remain alive and become the chairman of the Temple Union. This also gave him a new opportunity. At the same time, he used Yue Ye as the person to establish contact to provide Long Haochen with full support. If it were not for Agares’ delays, how would the information have been withheld from the Demon God Emperor, leaving him in the dark about all the crucial issues?

But just like what the Demon God Emperor had said, his strength prevent Agares from staking it all abd betraying the Demon God Emperor on the battlefield. He need to think for his own clansmen. Unless Long Haochen defeated the Demon God Emperor and settled the general situation, he would not revolt so easily.

Looking at Long Haochen’s gaze from beneath the mask, the Demon God Emperor said, “You’ve been very cautious in your thoughts. There’s one aspect that you’ve determined that’s very accurate. On this battlefield, the most critical part is me and you. If you can defeat me, then the humans will win, and my race’s reign of six thousand years will probably come to an end. However, if you lose, everything will just return to how it was before. The humans will be completely suppressed by me. I’ll even make it that not a single person from the temple will exceed the sixth step ever again.”

Long Haochen said indifferently, “Your majesty’s already told me so much nonsense, so it’s time for you to talk about your reason, right?”

The Demon God Emperor’s smile grew heavier, “Of course. Otherwise, how will you yield to me?”

Long Haochen said coldly, “It’s the middle of the day, so just stop dreaming.”

The Demon God Emperor ignored Long Haochen’s smart remark, “Actually, it’s good that you crippled Ah’Bao. It’s basically paving a path for your future. You’re also very clever. It’s possible to say that you’ve amounted to at least thirty percent of the reason why the humans were able to achieve an overwhelming victory this time. You’ve also stopped me all alone, giving enough opportunities to your people. It’s very impressive. Unfortunately, even the smartest people can miss something. Your failure just happened to lie in the most important point. Why do I give you special treatment? Why was I so reluctant and so pained in killing you in the past? Of course it wasn’t because of your talent. Instead, it was because…”

Reaching there, he paused and suddenly widened his eyes which had always been squinted, “It’s because my bloodline flows through your body.”

When the Demon God Emperor said that, Long Haochen only felt like he was struck by a hammer. He immediately retreated to a hundred meters away. The white light from the Armour of Eternity pulsed with great instability, while his face was filled with shock.

Long Haochen had never thought the Demon God Emperor would say something like that. He instinctively raised his Sword of Eternity.

However, the Demon God Emperor use this opportunity to launch an attack while he was in shock. He remained the same as before, while his gaze became even more gentle.

As his hair drifted about, the Demon God Emperor smiled at him, “No matter how outstanding you are, no matter how much effort you put in for the humans, it’s all just demonstrating your ability to me in my eyes. You should understand now why I treated you as a second successor when I first met you. Of course, that’s no longer the case now. In my heart, you are the primary successor of my race. You are very clever. You are intelligent and you are capable. However, no matter how capable you are, my bloodline flows through your body. We are one family. Consider it. If we work together, is there anything on the continent that can resist against us? I can give you whatever you want. This Shengmo Dalu is ours in the first place. You are the saint, the Sheng, while I am the demon, the Mo. We have always been one family.”
