476 From Now on, Wet Dream Is Forbidden (1/2)

In the face of the empty coffin, Wang Lu was silent for a long time before he sighed helplessly.

”Sure enough, it was really a lie.”

Before entering the mountain of corpses, Wang Lu had already begun doubting the identity of the demon king in that era, which could be considered as the last demon king.

No matter how amazing the exploits it had made during its reign, there were two problems that could not be denied. First, the Eternal Tree of the demon world collapsed in its term. Secondly, faced with a desperate situation, it had led hundreds of millions of demons to make a choice that was against the common sense of demon race.

For such a leader to have many praising epitaphs, was worth questioning… After all, this kind of thing was not uncommon for Wang Lu.

In Wang Lu's experience, he had seen too many similar situations. While scamming the people to dedicate for the great goal, they quietly readied the backdoor for their escape. Such leaders were dime a dozen. Demon world was a very vast land, so for it to produce such a leader occasionally was not unusual. A pity, based on its portrait, this leader was very attractive even by the standard of human.

As to why it so happened that the last demon king was this kind of trash? The answer was very simple, because once such a trash appeared on the throne of the demon world, it was basically destined to be the last demon king.

However, looking at the empty coffin, Wang Lu still felt unease in his heart.

What exactly happened two thousand years ago? Were things really that simple? Because the demon king ruled poorly, the Eternal Tree was destroyed and the demons were led astray into the dreamworld? Was that the case here?

Unfortunately, although there were more questions now, there was no way to verify. The coffin was empty and did not leave any valuable clues. The epitaph on the surrounding walls that heaped praises basically had no reading value. A leader that could lead the most courageous warrior race into the dreamland naturally would not leave any black spots in its reign into the history book. Fond of leaving their name in history was the common failing of this kind of people.

”So should I wake them all now?”

Since the mystery he most wanted to solve could not be solved, Wang Lu could only do the next best thing; awaken the demons from their two thousand years of dream and solve the threat of black tide.

Wang Lu had actually begun to prepare this matter since the opening ceremony of the new demon world's lightning ball league. Now the matter was almost imperative.

However, Wang Lu couldn't immediately resolve it.

His time in the new demon world was unforgettable. The dream built by the demons for two thousand years was simply a miracle. That magnificent and splendid civilization, if so destroyed, would make Wang Lu feel really sad.

He actually very much liked watching the lightning ball.

Moreover, although the essence of the new demon world was only a dream, no one could deny that this dream contained a powerful force. For Wang Lu and the other lead disciples, it was nearly indistinguishable to the real world! The rich taste of good food there was real. Wang Lu's mustard seed bag was still filled with a few snacks unique to new demon world; they were already materialized!

Similarly, those millions of powerful demons in the new demon world were not just illusions. Looking at their overall power, they were just as strong as those in the Nine Regions. It would be a pity if all of them would be gone once they woke from their dream...

If he did this, in just one act, the new demon world would cease to exist, the two demon kings there would die, including a certain amount of supreme demons, and countless demon generals. Wang Lu really didn't think that this was something worth boasting of.

Let alone the tool that he needed to use to wake them up from the dream was the essence of the demon jade—the five blood spirits crown, given to him by the purple-black fog demon in the group of immortal tombs as a gift. Was the reason he gave him the demon jade hope? Hope that he would crush the new demon world? To completely destroy the last remaining demon civilization?

There must be a more appropriate solution.

However, if because of momentary kindness he let go of this new demon world, when the expansion of black tide was finally unstoppable, the new demon world would also be destroyed, and even the Nine Regions would suffer. At that time, his kindness would turn into a lifetime of shame.

”What do you think, the last demon king. If you were me, what would be your decision?”

In the tomb of the demon king, Wang Lu softly asked that question while his eyes remained lock on the mural on the wall.

”If you were me, you would certainly not hesitate to activate the demon jade, because it is reasonable and safe enough. And although this choice is cruel, there's no other alternative…”

While saying that, Wang Lu's voice became softer and his eyes shone brighter.

”If you were me, you would've certainly said so. In any case, you could always say that 'no other alternative' excuse. And I believe, many demons and humans would agree with you. Even Qiong Hua is not an exception.”

”Unfortunately, the person who came here is me. And how could I let myself be associated with someone like you? When there's a dilemma, I'll find a new way, like now for example…”

While saying that, Wang Lu walked to the wall and pressed his palm on a pair of words. He was amazed by the fact that those in the past had actually left something useful.
