Chapter 1111: Opponen (1/2)

Floating outside the protected floating land, Gutas from the Bispo Clan delivered Grand Monarch Primal Demon’s message in a confident manner.

After he was finished, he turned around and prepared to return to their stronghold.

At this moment, Nie Tian suddenly shouted, “Gutas! Catie from your clan died at my hands in my domain, don’t you want to avenge her under everyone’s gaze?”

Gutas turned back around, his face distorted and his breathing heavy.

Due to the unexpected deaths of grand patriarch Cardy and Catie, he had been fiercely berated by his father, Grand Monarch Bloodlust, after his return to the Demon realms. Even his clan’s status had suffered because of it.

Besides that, Grand Monarch Bloodlust had recently been defeated by Mo Heng, and retreated to his clan badly injured.

Their entire clan’s name had suffered an unprecedentedly heavy blow.

Therefore, when he had learned that Mo Heng demanded that the Demons choose any eighth grade Demon to fight Nie Tian in a duel, he had volunteered in an attempt to right his wrong by winning the duel.

As the son of Grand Monarch Bloodlust, even though he was only at the seventh grade, he was confident that he was more than capable of contending against eighth grade members of his clan.

After all, he had a grand monarch’s blood running through his veins.

However, Grand Monarch Primal Demon, the supreme ruler of the Demon race, had coldly refused his offer.

According to him, another champion would be chosen to fight Nie Tian. He, Gutas, wasn’t the best candidate.

The refusal of his offer had sent a message to all of the Demon clans: Grand Monarch Primal Demon wasn’t convinced that he would win a duel against Nie Tian.

For Gutas, who had inherited Grand Monarch Bloodlust’s combative nature, Grand Monarch Primal Demon’s refusal had been absolutely humiliating.

At this moment, by shouting at him, Nie Tian was clearly provoking him into finding a way to become his opponent in the upcoming duel.

Unfortunately...

“I want to fight you very much!” Gutas said with a sinister face. “But you’ll have to fight another!”

Nie Tian was surprised at first, but immediately afterwards, he laughed wildly and said, “That’s right. You’re indeed a bit too weak. You’re only at the seventh grade... Of course you can’t be sure that you’ll win a duel against me. Your people are right about that.”

Gutas’ breaths grew increasingly heavy. He struggled to hold his temper as he dashed back towards the Demons’ stronghold.

“You can’t escape death!” Nie Tian shouted.

“Tell Grand Monarch Primal Demon that I agree to his terms,” Mo Heng said in a light tone.

However, Gutas heard every word he said, and shouted back, “We’ll give you a time soon!”

On the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s starship.

Mo Heng took a deep look at Nie Tian and said, “Don’t carry any burdens and don’t listen to anyone. I yearn for this duel against Grand Monarch Primal Demon. It has nothing to do with the sect. Only if you win your duel will I have the chance to stand in front of Grand Monarch Primal Demon and give it all I have.”

Nie Tian had second thoughts.

Gutas’ message from Grand Monarch Primal Demon made him think whether he should lose intentionally, so that Mo Heng wouldn’t have to fight that deadly duel against Grand Monarch Primal Demon.

However, as he looked into Mo Heng’s eyes now, he realized that he actually yearned for this chance to fight Grand Monarch Primal Demon.

“I won’t hold anything back. I promise.” Nie Tian said with great determination.

Mo Heng nodded. “Good. I need to spend some time alone before your duel.”

With these words, he went below decks into a secret room. As soon as he did, his aura vanished completely.
