Laura was watching Gu Qing Shan and the Shadow Fiend Kingâs negotiation, so as she heard what the Progenitor said, she couldnât help but laugh.
âGu Qing Shan, you donât have to be so stingy with the following ones, the things these guys want are all so cheap, itâs fine even if we offer a bit more, I still have a lotâ she silently sent her voice to tell him.
âI know, but being wealthy is one thing and doing business is another. You canât encourage evil creatures to be greedy and ask for more, that could instead ruin our plansâ Gu Qing Shan silently sent his voice in reply.
Laura was a bit surprised and lowered her head to carefully think about Gu Qing Shanâs words.
Gu Qing Shan then looked at Empress Li Yang again and told her: âThen letâs continueâ
ă Alright, the first three Fiend kings had been set, so the next one will be the Asura King? ăEmpress Li Yang said.
âWhat kind of person is the Asura King?â Gu Qing Shan asked.
He recalled the Asura King he met once before.
In truth, Gu Qing Shan held quite a bit of respect for both that Asura King and the Great Ghost General.
To save Soft Note, they were willing to wait for 10,000 years.
Empress Li Yang answered: ă The Asura King isnât greedy, but he thrives on war and battle, so if heâs free, heâll accept our offer very easily, but if theyâre currently at war with another world then itâll be a bit difficult? ă
Li Yang then changed her hand seal and continued summoning.
A few moments later, a green flame erupted from the void of space.
The flame expanded slowly to form a curtain of flame with a face on it.
A male voice came from the green flame and asked: ă Empress Li Yang, what do you need from me?? ă
Li Yang then told him everything regarding the plan.
The person on the other side of the green flame went silent briefly and spoke in a troubled voice: ă Lately Iâve been preparing for a few conquests, today just happened to be when we would set out, so itâs a bit difficult to spread our forces so thinâŠ? ă
Li Yang explained: ă Itâll be a bit too troublesome if I have to find an unfamiliar Asura King in an unfamiliar Asura world, canât you help us this once?? ă
ă Heavenâs Tribulation huh, the one facing the Tribulation is⊠ah?? ă
The Asura King looked around before suddenly letting out a surprised cry.
He slightly moved and directed the green flame curtain to fly up and around Gu Qing Shan nonstop.
Gu Qing Shan held his sword in hand, keeping a calm expression without saying anything.
The green flame illuminated his body a bit before returning after not too long.
The Asura King caught the green flames again, apparently sensing something and turning silent for a few dozen seconds.
ă This man is the one facing the Tribulation?? ăhe suddenly asked.
ă Yes? ăLi Yang replied.
ă Very well, I accept. At that time I will surely come? ăthe Asura King replied.
This time it was Li Yangâs turn to be surprised.
But since he had accepted, she decided to quickly have him confirm with a Contract before he changes his mind!
Empress Li Yang quickly gave him the Saint Bramble Leaf to make a vow to cooperate.
The Asura King readily made the vow.
Seeing that, Empress Li Yang couldnât help herself asking: ă Didnât you say you were going to be busy? Why did you accept so quickly?? ă
ă 2 million souls isnât a small amount, furthermore, that man carries two things that are closely related to our Asura race, so I decided to help him once? ăthe Asura King answered.
Hearing the Asura King, everyone looked at Gu Qing Shan in surprise.
Heâs somehow closely related to the Asura?
ă Iâll leave for now, when the Tribulation begins, I will come via the Seat of Tribulation? ăthe Asura King said.
âPlease wait a secondâ
Seeing the Asura King about to leave, Gu Qing Shan hurriedly called out.
ă What is it?? ăthe Asura King slowly asked.
âPardon me asking, what are the two things I carry? And how come I donât know about them?â Gu Qing Shan asked.
ă Of course you donât know, they are soul vessel Secret Arts of our Asura race, only those of our tribe would understand when they see it? ăthe Asura King answered him.
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
Back in Huang Quan, I once met the Asura King of 10,000 years ago and received all of their battle experience and skills, yet I never knew about any soul vessel Secret Arts.
Itâs likely that the Asura King felt that they couldnât be used so he didnât give them to me.
Thinking that, Gu Qing Shan politely bowed and spoke seriously: âCan I trouble you to tell me about them in detail? I will be forever gratefulâ
ă Alright, I guess I can tell you about them? ăthe Asura King muses a bit.
ă You carry the blessing of an Asura King, something only those that held the throne of Asura can bestow, which represents the fact that youâve once helped an Asura King solve an extremely crucial problem? ă
ă During your journey across the infinite worlds, the Asura of all Samsara worlds will be able to sense this Secret Art and consider you one of their own? ă
Gu Qing Shan carefully recalled, apparently the Asura King had been waiting for 10,000 years before that decisive battle.
And I managed to stall the Heavenly God long enough for the Asura King and Great Ghost General to enact their vengeance.
That must be it.
Perhaps at some unknown point, the Asura King had given me this blessing as thanks.
Regretfully, I donât know whether the Asura King and Great Ghost General had dissipated, returned to the cycle of reincarnation or followed Soft Note back to Sky Haze empire.
What would a soul do after accomplishing their will of 10,000 years?
âââI donât know anything about that at all.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
He then asked: âJust now you said that I carry two things that are closely related to the Asura race, then what was the second?â
The Asura calmly looked at him, suddenly chuckled and spoke: ă That is a very personal matter, just know that isnât a bad thing. Perhaps you will understand in the future, but I canât tell you now? ă
He swung his hand, fanning the green flames to cover his entire figure.
Then the green flames slowly dissipated.
The Asura King had left the plaza and the lost world of the Old Gods.
After dispelling the summoning technique, he quickly returned to his world.
This was a world plunged in the flames of war.
A large army had rallied.
All Asura had rolled up their sleeves and were preparing their weapons.
ââthey were about to enter a war with another world.
The Asura King sat down on his white elephant.
He fell into thought.
âKing, what is the matter?â a female Asura by his side curiously asked.
âItâs nothing, relay my order, we wonât set out on the crusade for that worldâ
âAh, but everyone had preparedâââ
âI know, there will soon be a Heavenâs Tribulation. I will lead us all to enjoy a feast of slaughter, then we will continue our conquestâ
âYes!â
The female Asura quickly jumped down from the white elephant and relayed the Asura Kingâs orders.
The Asura King sat alone on top of the white elephant and stayed silent for a long time.
All of a sudden, he muttered.
âHow rare for that to beâ
âAn Asura fights for their entire life, never shedding a single tear, yet she dedicated her tear to youâŠâ
ââââ
On another side.
Gu Qing Shan was still very confused.
He felt an abrupt sense of sorrow.
But he was in an emergency situation and there was still a lot to do.
âAlright!â he pressed his thoughts down for now and took a deep breath: âSo next weâre going to summon the four Devils?â
Empress Li Yang replied: ă Yes, but unlike the Fiend Kings, we Tianma donât really associate with the Devil Kings, so my incantation will randomly summon the Ghost Kings from several Ghost realm, and weâll need to negotiate with them at the same time ă
âSounds like itâll be quite difficultâ Gu Qing Shan replied.
ă Indeed, it will be troublesome since they will be here all at once? ăEmpress Li Yang confirmed it.
At this point, even the Progenitor Fiendess herself came forward and assured them: ă Donât worry, since Iâm here, even if negotiation breaks down, they wonât dare to act up on the spot? ă
âThank you! Can you tell me what kind of characteristics the four Devil Kings might have? Iâll make sure to keep them in mindâ
ă Thatâs simple? ăthe Progenitor Fiendess looked at Li Yang.
Li Yang explained: ă The Hunger Devils arenât well-versed in soul-type magic, but they themselves have a resistance to magic, they enjoy eating living beingâs brain the most ă
ă Huang Quan Devils are what living beings turn into after death, you canât kill them, only send them back to slumber in Huang Quan, so definitely donât offend them or itâll be very troublesome? ă
ă A Bloodthirsty Devilâs fighting prowess is unimaginably powerful, whenever they suck enough blood, their strength will increase by a large margin? ă
ă Malahoh Devils are a bit similar to us Tianma, but unlike us, this type of devil has to kill every day, otherwise they will die. But in exchange, they donât need a living beingâs soul or Soul Points, they can be satisfied by absorbing the miasma that appears when a living being dies? ă
âAlright, I understand them better now, letâs beginâ Gu Qing Shan said.
ă There is one most important point that you have to remember? ă
âWhat is it?â
ă The Fiend Kings all have their own thoughts and agenda, but the Devil Kings arenât the same as Fiend Kings. Devil Kings only respect the ability to kill and the strong who can kill the most in the bloodiest way? ă
âGot itâ Gu Qing Shan replied.
Empress Li Yang formed another foreign hand seal and began to chant.
This time, four unknown Devil Kings will appear at once!
Beside the Progenitor Fiendess, everyone else was anxious.
Ilya and the guards stood around Laura, cautiously watching their surroundings.
The Tianma sisters were gathered in one place discussing something.
Gu Qing Shan calmly waited.
This chant was longer than any of the other ones.
As Li Yang chanted, a faint dust mist began to rise from their feet slowly until it reached their waist.
The grey mist began to swirl.
At a certain point, Empress Li Yang suddenly shouted: ă The Seats of Tribulation had gathered, show yourselves, oâ Devil Kings!? ă
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
With three loud noises, the Devil Kings appeared in the mist.
The first to appear was a grey-skinned monster about 10 meters tall.
Its limbs were thin and long, extremely flexible at a glance. Its body was as thin as dried wood, but its stomach was bloated with an eyeless face growing from it.
This was the Hunger Devil King.
The second to appear didnât look like a Devil at all. Instead, it looked like some sort of demon beast, with a pair of thick hind legs, arms fashioned with razor-sharp claws, a pair of vertical iris and a mouth full of teeth.
This was the Bloodthirsty Devil King.
The third to appear was a human-headed bird monster with four pairs of wings, giving off a chilling cold essence with a ferocious face.
This was the Malahoh Devil King.
The Hunger Devil King, Bloodthirsty Devil King and Malahoh Devil King all arrived at the plaza at once!
Empress Li Yang looked around, but didnât see any Huang Quan Devil King answering her summon at all.
ă Strange⊠Why did no Huang Quan Devil King come to take the Seat of Tribulation? Thatâs simply not possibleâŠ? ă
She scowled and muttered in confusion.
