Chapter 733: Chapter 603: Li City Half-Demon? World Half-Demon?
Chu Mu, the half-demon, saw Elder Liu not advancing any further, his figure slowly drifted back.
āSave⦠save me⦠He is⦠He isā¦ā Sky Listener knew that Soul Alliance forces were already on their way, and in this moment continued his doomed struggle.
All of the Soul Emperors dared not make any move, they could only watch with consternation as the once mighty Chief of Sky Listening was being capped like a dead dog in the Half-Demonās hand.
If even the Elder couldnāt save him, let alone others, those experts from the Soul Alliance were only able to stand behind the Elderās peak Emperor-grade Misty Immortal Bird, helplessly watching the malicious half-demon gradually drift awayā¦
They didnāt know how the half-demon would dispose of the dying Sky Listener, but they could be sure that this Chief of Sky Listening would meet the worst fate.
The solitary, indifferent figure who used to overlook the world gradually faded away, eventually turning into a tiny white dot and disappeared into the night.
āElder, shouldnāt we chase? If the half-demon exists, countless people will be persecuted.ā Some Territory Lords began to worry.
The appearance of any half-demon always brings devastating hits. Now the half-demon escaped from World City, if the half-demon survived, it would possibly appear in some other territories again.
Within the territory, there is no possible way to gather so many Soul Emperor experts to deal with the Half-Demons. So if they didnāt resolve the impending danger, it would be a disaster for all living beings in the territory.
āDifferent Race wonāt leave any traces of being pursued, if it tries its best to escape, even my Misty Immortal Bird cannot catch up.ā Elder Liu sighed.
āThis will be a big hidden danger. You know, the problem with the half-demon from Li City is not resolved yet. Not much time has passed and another half-demon appeared in World City.āElder Ting said.
After saying that, Elder Ting gave a glance at Elder Ye Tao from the Nightmare Demon Palace, his eyes were full of contempt for the people from Nightmare Demon Palace, theyāre the ones produced such a devil.
Elder Ye Tao from Nightmare Demon Palace could not bother about Elder Tingās contempt now, he was completely engrossed in his thoughts: āThe half-demon who fought alongside the Qingzhe Dragon in Li City was suspected to have some consciousness. Now this World City half-demon also has consciousness, could it be the same demon?ā
The half-demonās lasting time can be short or long. The shorter ones usually canāt bear the ultimate pain anymore, give up their resistance, and completely turned into a demon, it barely lasts for the duration of a battle.
The long ones are those whose will, whose soul are unyielding, they are always struggling against the demons. There was a case in the Nightmare Demon Palace where a half-demon lasted for over a decade!
Of course, this undying half-demon has long been sealed, otherwise the entire world would be in turmoil.
āElder, what should we do nowā¦ā The various Soul Emperors began to inquire.
Wang Lihong was not in World City, and the highest authority now was Sky Listener, but the Sky Listener was taken away by the half-demon, so now everyone has to obey the command of Elder Liu, the most powerful Soul Hall Elder.
āEach elder leads 5 Soul Emperors to guard the eight directions of World City. Regardless of whether the half-demon attacks again or not, no one is allowed to abandon their post within a month!ā The Elder gave orders to all the Soul Emperors.
Elder Liu is an Elder from Soul Hall, so naturally only members of Soul Hall should obey him completely.
However, after Elder Liuās order was issued, no one dared to resist.
Strong Ones always deserve respect and reverence. Just relying on the Elderās Peak Emperor Grade Winged Soul Pet, the Misty Immortal Bird, the Elder had the authority to command the entire World City.
Soon all the Elders that were left in World City led 5 Soul Emperors each and flew to the eight directions.
āClean this place up, and donāt leave any trace before daylight. Donāt announce the appearance of a half-demon to the outside world, just say a near Peak Emperor Grade White Nightmare Demon attacked.ā Elder Liu swept over the few remaining Soul Emperors in charge of World City and said to them.
āYes.ā The few Soul Emperors also descended from the sky, and began to mobilize all the city guards in this district of the city to clean up the corpses scattered all over the area.
After giving orders to a few more people, Elder Liu sat alone on the back of his Misty Immortal Bird, thinking deeply.
After a moment, Elder Liu seemed to have thought of something, he beckoned his hand, summoning Lord Yu who was the only one who hadnāt gone on to execute his mission.
Lord Yu followed the crowd, but the expression on his face was more complex than anyone elseās during the whole event because he was the only one who had seen the half-demon from Li City and the half-demon from World City!
āYou had something to say just now, go ahead.ā Elder Liu glanced at Palace Master Yu and opened his mouth to speak.
āHe is the half-demon from Li City.ā Palace Master Yu said with certainty.
Palace Master Yu didnāt know if all half-demons look the same, but at least from what he felt, this half-demon from World City was the same half-demon from Li City, with that peculiar quality, and that violent yet calm and wise eyesā¦
Elder Liu had also roughly guessed this, he and Elder Ye Tao had decided to discuss this matter after settling down tonight.
āAny other discoveries?ā Elder Liu noticed Palace Master Yu seemed to have more words to say, and continued to ask.
Lord Yu hesitated a bit, did not know whether to say it or not.
Lord Yu had always suspected that there was a special relationship between the Half-Demon of Li City and Chu Mu. Now that they met, he was even more convinced of his guess. However, the thought of a twenty-something-year-old being able to transform into a half-demon and possess the mighty power of a high-level emperor felt absurd, even to Lord Yu.
Eventually, Lord Yu shook his head and said, āThereās nothing more.ā
Elder Liu nodded and turned to Lord Yu, communicating with his Soul Sense, āThereās something I need you to do for me. Donāt tell anyone about this.ā
āJust command me, Elder,ā Lord Yu hurriedly bowed.
Elder Liu conveyed his message to Lord Yu through the Soul Sense.
At first, Lord Yu was listening intently, but when he found out for whom the task was, he was even more shocked, which further affirmed his belief that there was a great connection between the half-demon and Chu Mu!
ā¦
ā¦
āAhhhhhhh!ā
At the peak of the Netherworld Gate, screams of agony echoed through the night sky, causing goosebumps!
The man shrieking in agony was none other than Sky Listener, who had been captured alive by the half-demonic Chu Mu.
Chu Mu didnāt immediately kill Sky Listener; he wanted to learn from Sky Listener if there was anyone else who knew his secret.
Opportunities to transform into a half-demon are extremely rare. If someone else knew his secret, Chu Mu would definitely infiltrate World City again and eradicate that person, leaving no room for future troubles.
āNoā¦thereās no one elseā¦thisā¦this was directly authorized by the Alliance Masterā¦he doesnāt wantā¦doesnāt want anyone to knowā¦andā¦even ifā¦even if it was meā¦I donāt know what the thing actually isā¦āĀ Sky Listenerās speech was sporadic, obviously he was at his witsā end.
Imagine enduring torture from a high-level emperor-level Soul Demon Flames for nearly half an hour, who could possibly maintain their willpower under such circumstances.
āSo, how many people know that you and I made an exchange at the Netherworld Gate tonight?ā Chu Mu asked again.
Chu Mu had forced a mental attack on Sky Listener, making it almost impossible for him to lie.
āChen Peng⦠Jia⦠Jia Cunding⦠Li Teng⦠Ma⦠Ma Yilu⦠thatāsā¦thatās allā¦ā Sky Listener was at deathās door. This excruciating pain left him with no strength to calculate, he only wished to end his life sooner.
Perhaps, Sky Listener never could have envisioned that such a day would come for him, and that he would be tortured in such a way by a twenty-something-year-old youth.
Chen Peng had already been silenced by Sky Listener. Jia Cunding, Li Teng, Ma Yilu, Chu Mu didnāt let any of them off. All of them were ripped to shreds by the Sky-breaking Seal and their bodies were mixed with the corpses of the members of Soul Alliance Team.
The people who knew about the transaction between Chu Mu and Sky Listener at the Netherworld Gate were indeed just a few. As Sky Listener was plotting against Chu Mu and was afraid that the elder and madame would get angry with him, he didnāt disclose it.
Sky Listener couldnāt have imagined that his careful scheme against Chu Mu would actually help Chu Mu get rid of potential trouble. It saved Chu Mu from taking the risk of being besieged by all the Soul Emperors and killing Sky Listener Manor again.
Before Chu Mu discussed with Elder Liu, he planned to go to Sky Listenerās Manor himself to return the possessions of Soul Alliance, so Elder Liu always thought Chu Mu was at Sky Listenerās Manor.
As for Jia Jing, who passed the message, Chu Mu didnāt kill her to eliminate evidence. Before Chu Mu came, he let Mo Ye use his Demon Eye to shatter her memory.
This kind of mental shattering can only be used on people with very weak Soul Sense. As Jia Jing was just a minor Soul Disciple, she couldnāt resist. Of course, after being affected by this skill, Jia Jing was bound to fall seriously ill.
āKillā¦kill meā¦no one knows⦠no one knowsā¦I beg youā¦kill meā¦ā Sky Listener pleaded pathetically.
Sky Listener knew that if there was anyone else who knew the secret, the devil would not let him go. Sky Listener himself also assured that no one knew about theseā¦
After Chu Mu confirmed that Sky Listener was not lying, he slowly loosened his grip and revealed a sinister smile on his face, āDid you forget to give me something?ā
āThisā¦this is a Soul Capture Ring, insideā¦inside is the Emperorā¦Emperor-level young petā¦ā Sky Listener said weakly.
Chu Mu took the Soul Capture Ring, but didnāt hurry to open it. He also took off the Space Ring on Sky Listenerās hand, just in case he accidentally burned it all to the ground.
A Soul Emperor with a high-level emperorās rank, even if he carefully hides his most precious treasures in a more secretive place, the Space Ring he carries with him would surely contain many good things.
If Chu Mu was a real half-demon, he wouldnāt look at these things. Unfortunately, once the effect of the half-demon disappears, he would have to practice painstakingly. The things in Sky Listenerās Space Ring would definitely be very useful to him.
