Chapter 2086: The Skull Devil Sect is his Backer! (1/2)
Seeing the disciple running back into the hall, Chen Qijie and the other experts from the Blue Flames Devil Sect felt a trace of suspicion appearing in their hearts.
“Did you manage to find out what happened?” Chen Qijie snorted, “Don’t tell me Zheng Hao managed to kill that kid already.”
A mid-Second Order Emperor Realm expert beside Chen Qijie laughed, “Zheng Hao is an expert at the Seventh Order Emperor Realm. Killing a junior is something he can do with a single breath. There’s nothing strange about it. It should be that brat’s honor to die at Zheng Hao’s hands. After all, Zheng Hao hasn’t shown off his skills in years.”
The members of the Blue Flames Devil Sect nearly broke out into laughter as they discussed among themselves.
“It’s too bad we failed to head over in time…” Chen Qijie sighed ‘regretfully.’
However, the messenger disciple opened his mouth as he gasped for air, “Young master, ancestors, that’s… that’s not what happened.”
A frown formed on Chen Qijie’s face. “What do you mean that’s not what happened? Why are you stammering? Hurry up and spill!”
The disciple didn’t dare to dally as he took a deep breath before saying, “Zheng Hao wasn’t the one who killed the young man!”
“Who did it then?” Chen Qijie’s frown grew deeper, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.
It was clear that he didn’t get the other meaning behind the disciple’s report.
“Zheng Hao is dead!” The disciple’s voice trembled as he forced the words out of his mouth.
Zheng Hao is dead?!
Chen Qijie and the other experts froze as they stared at each other in a daze. Chen Qijie took several deep breaths before opening his mouth like a wooden chicken, “What?! Why is Zheng Hao dead?!”
“Zheng Hao was killed by that brat!” The disciple continued, “No… Zheng Hao wasn’t killed by the kid. He was killed by the cow!”
Killed by the cow?!
“The cow?!” The mid-Second Order Emperor from the Blue Flames Devil Sect felt his throat going dry, “Are you sure?!”
He was the person who had wanted to beat the little cow up previously. Luckily for him, Chen Qijie had stopped him before he could do anything to the little cow.
“Yes! Zheng Hao gathered the experts of the Devil Extermination Gate to surround the kid. Before he could say a single word, the cow stomped him to death!”
Killed with a single stomp?!
Chen Qijie and everyone else in the hall felt beads of cold sweat dripping down their forehead.
They felt that it was incredible that the little cow had managed to kill Zheng Hao. When they realized that the little cow had killed a Seventh Order Emperor with a single stomp, a feeling of fear filled their hearts. How strong did she have to be in order to kill a Seventh Order Emperor with a single attack?! In that instant, everyone felt as though they had barely managed to crawl back from the gates of hell.
What if Chen Qijie hadn’t stopped them?! What if they had actually tried to make a move on that cow?! Wouldn’t they already be…
“You… you can leave. Continue to investigate everything you can about that young man.” Chen Qijie waved his hand and dismissed the disciple. He slumped into his seat as he fell deep into his thoughts.
“Young Master, you don’t need to worry.” The Second Order Emperor comforted him, “Now that Zheng Hao is dead, the Devil Extermination Archdevil Ancestor will definitely make a move. He wouldn’t allow a high-level Emperor to fall without doing anything to the other party as that will only make his Devil Extermination Gate a laughing stock of the Devil World. If anything happens to the Devil Extermination Archdevil Ancestor, the Heaven Punishment Archdevil Ancestor and the others won’t sit by and watch. Don’t tell me that kid thinks that he can stand up to half of the Devil World with his miserable strength!”
“Young master, that’s right!” Several other ancestors nodded their heads in unison. “He’s seeking death by killing Zheng Hao!”
Chen Qijie nodded after hearing what they had to say. He felt as though their explanations were reasonable after thinking about it, and he heaved a sigh of relief. Even though he hadn’t formed any sort of enmity with Huang Xiaolong, he still felt as though the other party had disrespected him by declining his invitation. In his heart, he wanted nothing more than for someone to teach him a lesson.
…
After the little cow killed Zheng Hao, she was too lazy to mess about. With a single kick, she sent everyone from the Devil Extermination Gate flying.
Regardless of their strength, every single one of them became specks of dust in the distance before disappearing completely.
