AST 1625 - Successor of Great Demon King Inheritance, Leng Feng, Trifles (1/2)
Qing Shui froze. He didn’t expect that successors of Demon King Inheritance had already begun to gather. There were three during their encounter with the Niu Clan previously and Ye Mei wasn’t alone this time either.
However, Qing Shui didn't know why she targeted him specifically and he looked around in confusion for the person who was stepping forward. When Qing Shui saw the person who appeared by Ye Mei, he was also once again shocked.
He was a burly and strong man, standing at about 2.3 meters with a blue cloak. He had big eyes and thick brows, exuding an oppressive aura.
The reason why Qing Shui was shocked lied in the fact that there were two protruding horns on either side of the man's head the size of a baby’s fist. Those were covered by his hair.
Successor of Great Demon King Inheritance!
This was the Successor of Great Demon King. The Great Demon King King was one of the most powerful Demon Kings. Legend has it that the Great Demon King was a successor of an ancient Great Demon God. Hence, it was rumored that blood of the Demon God flowed in the veins of Great Demon King.
This man looked exceptionally mighty and with his height, he would be a prominent figure wherever he was. Not to mention, this man was much stronger than Ye Mei.
”Brother Feng, this man is a successor of the Battle God Inheritance, but the woman is indeed a successor of the Demon King Inheritance. What should we do?” Ye Mei smiled as she walked up to the man.
The man frowned and looked towards Qing Shui and Tantai Lingyan. His attention didn't stay on Tantai Lingyan for long before it shifted to Qing Shui. His profound gaze seemed to contain a kind of unspeakable power, both domineering and calm.
It was the first time Qing Shui had seen a man retracting his attention from Tantai Lingyan this quickly. It was not pretense. Such gesture couldn’t be faked.
”Demon Lord, I’ve known you for a long time now. I wonder if you would be interested in joining forces.” The man said to Tantai Lingyan, his voice reverberated.
Qing Shui thought his voice sounded nice, like the unique voice of the Great Demon King. It had grandeur and was repressive, carrying its own brand. It wielded its effects without help.
Tantai Lingyan glanced at the man. ”You must be a successor of the Demon King Inheritance. I don't know if your mission is the same as other successors. You must be trying to gather successors of Demon King Inheritance.”
The man nodded. ”I'm Leng Feng. My Inheritance memory urged me to gather other brothers and sisters of the Demon King Inheritance. Although we are successors of the Demon King Inheritance, it doesn’t mean that we are evil. Successors of the Battle God Inheritance are actually successors of the Battle Demon Inheritance, only that the name was changed to Battle God Inheritance. During ancient times, we were Demon King and they were Battle Demon. Eventually, they won and became Battle God. From then on, they’ve taken advantage of that title to this day.”
Qing Shui watched the man who held an air of leadership and said, ”You may be decent but you have forgotten about the blood of the Demon King. It can’t be changed.”
The man shook his head. ”This has nothing to do with the blood of the Demon King. It has something to do with the speed of our inheritance cultivation. As long as the foundation is firmly established, the probability of the situation you talk about will be greatly reduced. However, the foundation of our inheritance is difficult to establish, which gave birth to the rumor about the blood of the Demon King.”
”Since you have seen through my identity, we have our own separate missions. I can tell you are not someone who would change your mind easily. So, let’s take it to a battle of fists.” Qing Shui said with a smile and stood up.
”How is that possible? You’re fine?” Ye Mei looked up at Qing Shui and Tantai Lingyan in disbelief.
“My name is Leng Feng. I’m here to discuss an alliance with Demon Lord. It seems that it’s impossible. I’ll forget about this issue on the relationship we have as successors of the Demon King Inheritance. We’ll be enemies the next time we meet.”
With that, the man turned to Ye Mei. ”Mei'er, let's go!”
”Leaving so soon? We have yet to settle the score on your poisoning,” Qing Shui said with a smile.
Smiling back, Ye Mei was surrounded by a black fog which enveloped them. Qing Shui reached out with a fist but as the dark fog dispersed and there was only a little trail of blood on the ground. They were gone.
Night Demon was best at concealment and escape. Qing Shui had already predicted such an end but it was undoubtedly still a pity. The strength of the man named Leng Feng shouldn’t be inferior to Tantai Lingyan, and one should know that her might was as terrifying as it stood.
Qing Shui didn’t feel great having them escape. Before, he had allowed the Niu Clan's Demon Child Niu and Successor of Thunder Roc Condor Demon King Inheritance to leave. However, these two had the audacity to drug them, and so Qing Shui wanted them to bleed. The weapon he used was laced with toxin as well.The concealed weapons used were also toxic enough to keep them busy for a while. This was what it meant to treat others as they had treated you.
Looking at the darkening sky, Qing Shui smiled. ”Let's head back!”
Tantai Lingyan nodded after some thoughts.
Qing Shui held her hand in his and used Nine Continents Steps. In all honesty, it wasn’t necessary to take her hand but either she didn’t know or she liked it, he still took a liking to use this method with her.
Qing Shui gazed in close proximity until they were near Demon King Palace. They stopped to summon the Hellfire Phoenix instead and flew their way to the Demon King Palace.
