711 Where Did The Treasures Go? Internal Strife in the Demon Realm (2)
Zhou Shu raised his hand and clenched his fist. With a bang, Yao Qing appeared to be in pain. He lasted for the blink of an eye before exploding into a bloody mist and dying without a complete corpse.
Yao Yi collapsed to the ground in fear.
The Demon Kings and Great Demons also frowned.
Shi Changsheng was too ruthless. He didnât even say that he wouldnât pay the ransom. He just said that he would go back and report, yet Shi Changsheng directly killed Yao Qing?
While cursing silently, they were also a little glad that they had come prepared. Otherwise, if their juniors had ended up like Yao Qing, they would have returned empty-handed.
Seeing that Yao Qing had been killed, Great Demon Yao Bei shouted, âEveryone, weâve saved them. Do it!â
âWait!â Demon King Ao shouted. The candidates for the Holy Son of the Demon Realm had been saved, but there was still Pixiu!
Pixiu was the most important.
If anything happened to Pixiu, the consequences would be very serious.
After stopping Yao Bei and the other Great Demons, Demon King Ao stared at Zhou Shu and said coldly, âShi Changsheng, I want to redeem Lord Pixiu. Name your price.â
âOh?â Zhou Shu smiled faintly. âPixiu isnât a candidate for the Holy Son of the Demon Realm. His price is extraordinary.â
âI know,â Demon King Ao said coldly. âJust name your price. You donât have to worry about anything else!â
Demon King Ao looked confident. There were the ten great Demon Kings of the Demon Realm present. He didnât believe that the ten of them wouldnât be able to afford the ransom!
âHow generous. As expected of the number one Demon King of the Demon Realm.â Zhou Shu clicked his tongue in praise. âI regret letting you escape from me.â
Demon King Aoâs face darkened. Being captured alive by Shi Changsheng was the greatest stain in his life.
If not for the fact that Pixiu was still in his hands, Demon King Ao would have called for all the demonic beasts present to swarm forward and kill Shi Changsheng.
âSince youâre so sincere, if I donât name a price, wonât I be too sloppy?â Zhou Shu said with a faint smile. âWith Pixiuâs identity and cultivation, itâs not too much to pay a hundred times the ransom of these candidates for the Holy Son of the Demon Realm, right?â
âItâs not too much.â Demon King Ao nodded in agreement.
It was indeed not too much.
How could a hundred candidates for the Holy Son of the Demon Realm compare to Pixiu?
âTiangou, He Yuan!â Demon King Ao looked at Tiangou, He Yuan, and the other Demon Kings.
They left the Demon Realm Ancestral Court temporarily, and Demon King Ao explained Pixiuâs origin to them.
All the Demon Kings now knew that if Pixiu died here, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, without hesitation, they handed their things to Demon King Ao.
Demon King Ao gathered the ten Demon Kingsâ heaven and earth treasures and threw them onto the mountain of heaven and earth treasures.
The ransom brought by dozens of senior Great Demons and the ransom given by the ten Demon Kings filled the open space with a thousand-feet radius.
These Great Demons and Demon Kings had done it on purpose. They had piled the ransom in the open space instead of sending it to Zhou Shu because they had no intention of giving him a chance to take these things away.
As long as Zhou Shu saw these things and released their descendants, they would have achieved their goal.
Once this happened, they would immediately attack Zhou Shu. He wouldnât have the chance to take away these heaven and earth treasures!
âIs that enough? Where is Lord Pixiu?â Demon King Ao stared fixedly at Zhou Shu.
âWhat do you think?â Zhou Shu smiled strangely. âThank you for your heaven and earth treasures. We will meet again.â
Zhou Shu laughed as his figure gradually became illusory at a visible speed. Then under the gazes of the Demon Kings and Great Demons, he completely dissipated into the air.
Shi Changsheng, who had been talking to them for so long, was just a phantom?
All the Demon Kings and senior Great Demons were dumbfounded.
Fortunately, the demonic beast they wanted to save had been saved, and Shi Changsheng didnât take away the ransom.
Wait, that wasnât right. Shi Changsheng has been working so hard for so long without obtaining any benefits. What was he after?
The Demon Kings and senior Great Demons frowned.
âOh no!â a demonic beast suddenly shouted.
All the Demon Kings and senior Great Demons looked over and saw that the mountain of heaven and earth treasures had disappeared at some point!
âWho saw when they disappeared?â
Demon King Ao almost couldnât suppress the anger on his face. He had emptied his void beast, but he still couldnât save Pixiu. Now that there was nothing left, wouldnât he lose everything?
âNo.â All the demonic beasts shook their heads. They didnât hear or see anything at all.
âHow did he do it?â Yao Bei gasped.
Such methods were really unbelievable. It was a pity that they were still thinking about dealing with Shi Changsheng. There were so many demonic beasts, but they didnât even understand his methods. They were not on the same level at all.
âDemon King Ao, who is Shi Changsheng?â Yao Bei looked at Demon King Ao and asked in a low voice. âWeâve fought with the human race for more than a thousand years, but weâve never heard of such an expert. Donât they not have experts above the first rank?
âWhy did such a human expert suddenly appear?â
âHow would I know?â Demon King Ao said angrily. He wanted to know too. Pixiu definitely knew, but Pixiu had also been plotted against by Shi Changsheng. Who could he ask?
âItâs not that the human race doesnât have experts. Itâs just that the human race doesnât have any now,â Demon King Ao said solemnly. âThereâs no point in investigating his background. The most important thing now is to find him and bring back our things and Lord Pixiu!â
âHow? We donât even know how he took the ransom.â A demonic beast smiled bitterly. Such a large ransom was definitely not something a void beast could contain.
Moreover, there were so many Demon Kings and Great Demons. If the other party had used a void beast to carry away the ransom, it would have been impossible to hide from their sight.
Where did the treasures go?
All the demonic beasts rushed to the place where the ransom had just been piled up and looked around.
After a while, they gathered together again. They didnât find any clues. It was as if the treasures had never existed.
The demonic beasts even wondered if they had ever taken out so many treasures.
If not for the fact that their void beasts were empty, they would really think that everything that had just happened was just their imagination.
âDo you think the Demon Ancestor helped him?â a demonic beast suddenly said.
All the demonic beasts looked at the statue of the Demon Ancestor in the temple.
Previously, it seemed that the statue of the Demon Ancestor had indeed shot out a ray of light and imprisoned their descendants in the air.
âWhy would the Demon Ancestor help a human deal with us demonic beasts? That doesnât make sense,â a demonic beast said.
âIt canât be the Demon Ancestor,â Demon King Ao said. âThe Demon Ancestor has been missing for countless years. The Demon Ancestral Court was left behind by the Demon Ancestor to protect us demonic beasts. It must be Shi Changshengâs deception.
âHeâs just trying to make us suspicious!â
âDemon King Ao, how did he take the ransom away?â a Demon King said indignantly. âThe ransom was treasures that our races have treasured for many years. We lost a lot just like that.â
âThatâs right, Demon King Ao. Our descendants are all here for the selection of the Holy Son of the Demon Realm. Logically speaking, you Demon Kings should be responsible for their safety. Now, not only have so many demonic beasts died, but weâve also suffered such a loss. Demon King Ao, shouldnât you give us an explanation?â Yao Bei said solemnly.
All the senior Great Demons stood behind Yao Bei and stared at the Demon Kings with him.
âHmph, is the selection of the Holy Son of the Demon Realm for us?â Tiangou stood out and said coldly. âHave you forgotten who has the final say in the Demon Realm?!â
The ten great Demon Kings emitted terrifying auras. The ten of them stood together and confronted the senior Great Demons.
