Chapter 1717: In Danger of Dying (1/2)
Huang Xiaolong was quite surprised to find out that the Heaven Resentment Emperor’s reputation was comparable to the Massacring Gods Gate’s old ancestor, Chu Han.
If that was indeed true, then it was definitely a big problem for him. Even if the Heaven Resentment Emperor hadn’t exceeded the Emperor Realm, he would be infinitely close to it.
If he were to join forces with Chu Han, Huang Xiaolong felt that the risk he was about to take had increased immensely.
“Your Majesty, should we ask Tai Yue, Jin Yuan, and the rest of them to come over?” The Scarlet Flame Dark Qilin asked.
Huang Xiaolong contemplated for a moment before saying, “There’s no need for that.” Even if he were to summon them now, they would take two months to arrive.
“However, what if the Heaven Resentment Emperor and Chu Han have joined hands…?” The Scarlet Flame Dark Qilin asked worriedly.
Huang Xiaolong smiled, “Don’t worry about it. We will head to the Black Ant City now.” He pointed to the center of the Heaven Resentment Continent.
The place they were going to was the heart of the Black Ant Clan’s headquarters—Black Ant City!
Since Huang Xiaolong had never exposed the fourteen Radiance Angels from his Heavenly Hall, nobody knew about his secret. Hence, it wasn’t out of his expectations that the Scarlet Flame Dark Qilin was overreacting.
Seeing that it could not persuade Huang Xiaolong, the Scarlet Flame Dark Qilin had no choice but to continue flying towards Black Ant City.
It decided that as soon as it sensed any danger, it would flee with Huang Xiaolong immediately.
An ordinary-looking old elf was sitting on the throne of the Black Ant Clan. He was precisely the Masacrring Gods Gate’s old ancestor, Chu Han! Below him, there was the tall and green-eyed patriarch of the Black Ant Clan, Liao Yuan, and the other elders.
Chu Han looked at Liao Yuan and the rest of them, and said, “I just received news that someone barged into White Bones City not too long ago. When the city lord, Yan Duo, tried to stop them, he was severely injured by the trespassers in one move.”
The entire Black Ant Clan was shocked.
“Senior Chu Han, is that kid, Duwei, here?!” The patriarch of the Black Ant Clan, Liao Yuan, said solemnly.
Chu Han remained emotionless as he nodded his head, “It should be him.” His eyes turned bloodshot as he sneered, “New king of hell? When the time comes, I will let him become the new ghost of hell!”
The entire hall broke out in laughter.
Half a day later, Huang Xiaolong and the Scarlet Flame Dark Qilin arrived in front of a huge black city.
Black Ant City stood before them in an imposing manner.
Huang Xiaolong’s Eye of Hell opened as he peered into Black Ant City. He saw some round ball of flesh squirming and letting out a chilling sucking sound.
“Are those Ancient Blood Devil Leeches?!” Huang Xiaolong dug through his memories, and he felt a sense of extreme shock.
The Blood Devil Leech was a type of ancient Devil Bug that was able to attach itself to any living thing. Although it didn’t release any poison, it was able to suck the blood essence out of any living organism, and it could also absorb their soul.
It was in a way similar to the devouring power of Huang Xiaolong’s archdevil supreme godhead.
Moreover, the Blood Devil Leech was unafraid of being attacked as it would still be able to survive even if it was chopped into millions of pieces. Even Xiang Xun’s hellfire would fail to kill it.
Huang Xiaolong continued to observe Black Ant City, and he discovered a Blood Devil Leech stationed close to the first one. There were Blood Devil Leeches all around, and the weakest one was in the mid-level Heavenly Monarch Realm. The strongest of the leeches were in the Emperor Realm!
Even though the Blood Devil Leeches in the Heavenly Monarch Realm didn’t pose any threat to him, the Blood Devil Leeches that could advance into the Emperor Realm would be a terrifying existence.
Huang Xiaolong then explained the hidden situation to the Scarlet Flame Dark Qilin.
The Scarlet Flame Dark Qilin’s expression changed drastically.
