Indestructible God King - Chapter 88.2
Chapter 88.2 The Intimidating Demon Sovereign (2/2)
“Whoever is with me shall prosper in the demonic sect; those against me shall perish! Anyone who dares play tricks behind my back will end up just like them!” said the Demon Sovereign as a warning to all those present.
“Yes, Demon Sovereign!” all the demonic disciples outside the hall acknowledged. They were kneeling, shuddering because of their sovereign’s words. None of them dared to object.
Wang Ke stood by the side, his face twitching. The Demon Sovereign sure has an inclination to kill!
“Pass down my order. All demonic sect disciples must do their best to capture Tong An’an and his accomplices! Dead or alive! Kill whoever dares to help Tong An’an hide, without mercy! All of Tong An’an’s accomplices shall be executed!” the Demon Sovereign announced coldly.
“Understood!” All the demonic disciples outside the hall responded.
Only then did the Demon Sovereign turn his eyes toward Wang Ke.
“I saw you. Didn’t you save the Sacred Child just now?” the Demon Sovereign asked.
Wang Ke quickly replied, not daring to show disrespect as he looked at the fiendish mask, “I was only protecting myself. Saving the Sacred Child was a mere coincidence!”
“If you saved him, then say you saved him. I reward and punish fairly. You saved the Sacred Child, so you deserve a reward!” the Demon Sovereign said.
Wang Ke nodded and replied, “Yes, Demon Sovereign!”
“Demon Sovereign, this is the second time Wang Ke has saved me! He saved me twice!” the Sacred Child added.
“Oh?” The Demon Sovereign looked at Wang Ke in surprise.
“Not only so, Wang Ke single handedly obtained the ‘Divine Dragon Token.’ That is why the Snake King was enraged and came here to make a mess. Wang Ke completed the mission you set up; he secured the Divine Dragon Token!” the Sacred Child said to help Wang Ke gain more credit, “ Wang Ke, take it out. Quick!”
Wang Ke could only smile bitterly in his heart, as he preferred not to be credited for that achievement. The Demon Sovereign seemed too coldblooded and ruthless, and too difficult to predict. Wang Ke didn’t want to leave too deep an impression in the Demon Sovereign’s mind.
“Quick, Wang Ke!” the Sacred Child urged.
Wang Ke could only concede and take out the token.
The Sacred Child quickly grabbed the thing and handed it over to the Demon Sovereign.
The latter examined the token and was silent for a moment.
“I asked the Snake King to guard the Divine Dragon Token. This was to encourage the demonic sect disciples to pursue higher achievements. Many tried over the years, but none were able to obtain it. Time passed, and gradually no one else dared to search for it again! And you? An Innate Stage cultivator was able to achieve this?” The Demon Sovereign looked at Wang Ke doubtfully.
The Demon Sovereign seemed able to clearly discern Wang Ke’s cultivation level.
“I was just lucky. Lucky!” Wang Ke replied with a bitter smile.
I really don’t need you to reward me for this. Just forget about me!
“Luck is also part of a person’s capabilities. I don’t care how you got it. Since you did it, you are qualified to become a new Branch Lord and establish a branch! You can start taking in disciples!” said the Demon Sovereign.
“Me? Establish a branch and take in disciples?” Wang Ke’s jaw dropped.
“The Divine Dragon Token was hidden near the Divine Dragon Island. So, your branch shall be the Divine Dragon Branch. A Chapter Lord used to manage the Divine Dragon Island. His job was to defend the place; he didn’t have the authority to go on offensive missions! However, a Branch Lord has the authority to both attack and defend! Whoever has the Divine Dragon Token shall become the Divine Dragon Branch Lord!” the Demon Sovereign explained.
Wang Ke’s jaw was slack once again. That would mean that even the Chapter Lord of the Divine Dragon Island was a subordinate of the Divine Dragon Branch Lord.
The Sacred Child offered a reminder by saying, “Wang Ke, quick! Thank the Demon Sovereign!”
Wang Ke: “……………………..!”
Somehow, I became a Branch Lord of the demonic sect just like that?
But, before Wang Ke could speak, someone shouted loudly from a place outside the hall, “No! Wang Ke cannot become a Branch Lord of the demonic sect!”
The demonic disciples sucked in a mouthful of cold air when they heard those words. Who the hell is that?He dares to even object to the Demon Sovereign’s will?
Next, they saw a man limping forth with a crutch and a badly bruised face.
No one had dared to stop the limping man from entering the hall since the Demon Sovereign was present.
“Wang Ke, you will never become Branch Lord as long as I’m around! Hahahaha!” proclaimed the man with much excitement, despite his pathetic appearance.
“Who are you? Do I know you?” Wang Ke asked, confused.
Everyone turned to look at the new arrival.
“Me? I’m Zhu Yan! You are such a bully. Today, I’m going to expose you in front of the Demon Sovereign!” Zhu Yan said vehemently.
“Zhu Yan?” Wang Ke was taken aback.
He could no longer recognize his friend. The latter had a badly bruised face and was wearing tattered clothing, which allowed them to see the bruises spreading all over his body. This is Zhu Yan?Even a beggar looks better than him!
“Zhu Yan? Why are you trying to make trouble?” Zhu Hongyi asked in great frustration, seeing the pathetic look of his grandnephew.
Why is my grandnephew becoming more and more like a fool?Look at you! How did you end up like this?
Zhu Yan swallowed his grief and refrained from telling Zhu Hongyi; instead, he bowed respectfully toward the Demon Sovereign.
Zhu Yan immediately said, “Demon Sovereign, I have something to report!”
“Oh?” The Demon Sovereign looked toward Zhu Yan.
“Wang Ke is not a disciple of our sect; he belongs to a righteous sect. He is apprenticed to Chen Tianyuan, the Heavenly Wolf Sect Lord! Please investigate the matter, Demon Sovereign!” Zhu Yan reported.
“What?” The demonic disciples outside the hall were appalled by the sudden revelation.
Zhu Yan must be crazy.Righteous sect?How did someone from a righteous sect manage to infiltrate our turf?
She Qingqing laid on the ground with a bitter-looking expression. It seems that Wang Ke won’t pass this trial in the end.
“A righteous sect disciple?” The Demon Sovereign looked at Wang Ke.
The latter’s eyebrows were tightly-knit.
“Wang Ke! Hahahaha! You didn’t expect this, eh? You will still fall by my hand! You are from the righteous sects! You don’t have demonic Qi! No one can save you today! Wang Ke, you are dead now! Hahahaha!” Zhu Yan laughed at Wang Ke haughtily.
“So, having demonic Qi will prove that I’m from the demonic sect?” Wang Ke asked nervously.
“That’s right. Demonic Qi is the hallmark of a demon. I would have exposed you earlier if not for the snakes charging into the prison. You’re dead for sure! You’re dead! Hahaha! No one can save you!” Zhu Yan burst out laughing.
“What does the demonic Qi look like?” Wang Ke asked, looking serious.
“Demonic Qi? Like my essence Qi… This is demonic Qi! Once you consume a person, your iniquity will envelop your essence Qi and turn it into demonic Qi. Look, this is the hallmark of the demonic sect. Demonic Qi is black, which those from the righteous sect do not have. Do you have demonic Qi like mine? Do you…?” Zhu Yan froze halfway through his mockery.
Because a sphere of essence Qi had just appeared on Wang Ke’s palm. It was pitch black!
If Zhu Yan’s essence Qi was only wrapped with darkness, Wang Ke’s essence Qi was black to the core. It was like a black hole; so black it was the color of Zhu Yan’s despair.
Zhu Yan rubbed his eyes in disbelief before giving another look at the essence Qi in Wang Ke’s palm, while gasping for air.
“Is this considered as demonic Qi?” Wang Ke asked blankly.
His turbid essence Qi had already turned black, even blacker than most of the demon’s Qi! Isn’t this the hallmark of demonic Qi?
It’s so black. What else can be considered demonic Qi if not this?
“You, you, you……!” Zhu Yan cried out in horror.
“Thump!”
Zhu Yan knelt down.
“Please spare my life, Demon Sovereign. Wang Ke deceived me. He wasn’t like this before. The Heavenly Wolf Sect disciples told me he’s from the righteous sect. I was lied to. Please forgive me, Demon Sovereign!” Zhu Yan wailed in fear.
He had a clear view of how much the Demon Sovereign loved to kill. Now that he was seen as apparently trying to deceive their leader, he thought he was about to meet his end. Oh heavens! How did things turn out like this?Someone save me!
