Chapter 712: Demons Cruelty (1/2)
After the Three-Eyed Greater Demon spoke, Rathadas and Limopith immediately paused their heated argument and turned to the Three-Eyed Greater Demon.
”Work together, you say?”
Red-Horned Rathadas quickly cracked a half-disdainful, half-sly smile and said, ”I didn't expect such words to come from a member of the proud and arrogant Evil Eye Demon Clan such as yourself, Balthagan.”
”Don't tell me that you are really willing to share all of the knowledge on the Abyssal Wood Demon King's tomb that your ancestors poured their blood and sweat into gathering over the past several hundred years?”
”Why not?” Three-Eyed Balthagan shrugged nonchalantly before saying calmly, ”As it stands, we won't be able to enter the Abyssal Wood Demon King's tomb, let alone clear it.”
”As such, it is better for us to work together. Pooling the clues that our three clans have gathered over the past few openings will definitely give us a higher chance of cracking the riddle. We can either divide Abyssal Wood Demon King's inheritance or get nothing from Abyssal Wood Demon King's tomb at all.”
”Heh, and how do you propose we divide the Abyssal Wood Demon King's Demon Core?” Scaly-Tailed Limopith sniggered before suggesting sarcastically, ”Should we cut it up into three equal pieces?”
”Hmph! That's not even funny!” Three-Eyed Balthagan snorted coldly and said, ”The Abyssal Wood Demon King's Demon Core contains the accumulated power of the Abyssal Wood Demon King.”
”Cutting up such a precious object will disperse and scatter all of the Abyssal Wood Demon King's concentrated power into the atmosphere, turning the divided Demon Core into useless pieces of rocks.”
”Hmph, you think I don't already know that?” Scaly Tailed Limopith snorted back and coldly said, ”That is why I asked how you would propose to divide it!”
”I am also interested in hearing about this,” Red-Horned Rathadas added with a cold glint.
Evidently, the three strongest Greater Demons in the area were primarily interested in the Abyssal Wood Demon King's Demon Core.
All other inheritance that could be found inside the Abyssal Wood Demon King's tomb was of lesser importance.
”Hmph, the Abyssal Wood Demon King's Demon Core obviously cannot be divided,” Three-Eyed Balthagan snorted and said, ”So we will divide what can be divided. As for what can't be divided, we can compete for them after dividing the rest.”
”That's fine with me.”
”And me too.”
Red-Horned Rathadas and Scaly-Tailed Limopith agreed to Three-Eyed Balthagan's suggestion with a nod.
However, shortly after, another Greater Demon approach hesitantly and asked, ”Excuse me, Sir Balthagan. What part of the Abyssal Wood Demon King's inheritance would the rest of us get?”
Puchi!
The Three-Eyed Greater Demon suddenly drove his sharp hand into the Four-Armed Greater Demon's chest before ripping out his heart and dropped it on the ground with a disdainful look.
”My heart… Sir Balthagan, why…?”
Plop!
The Four-Armed Greater Demon died shortly after Three-Eyed Balthagan stepped on the heart and crushed it into a bloody paste.
”A demon of some small clan dares to have eyes on the Abyssal Wood Demon King's inheritance like us of the Nine Great Clans? Know your place, insect!”
