Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild - Chapter 354

Chapter 354: Ghost Mountain

“Do you think I’m joking?”

Shangguan Dian’s expression was cold as he stared at him expressionlessly. “Hand over the real Demon King Token. Otherwise, I’ll make you suffer a fate worse than death!”

“I definitely didn’t deceive the Demon King!”

Chi Ming said fearfully, “After coming out from the Demon Realm, the Demon King Token has never left me. It can’t be fake!”

Shangguan Dian narrowed his eyes. “Why did you suddenly steal the Demon King Token?”

If the Demon King Token in Chi Ming’s hand was fake, where did the real one go?

“Because of an old patriarch from the Illusory Demon tribe. He came to find me at that time and said that you were about to wake up. The light of the Demon King Token had automatically dissipated. I have lived for a thousand years and never came to the human world. I yearned for it for a while and thus made a huge mistake!”

Hearing Chi Ming’s explanation, Shangguan Dian’s eyes became even colder.

“An old patriarch from the Illusory Demon tribe? What’s his name?â€�

Chi Ming said truthfully, “He’s Elder Huan Yue from the Illusory Demon tribe.”

“Huan Yue?”

Shangguan Dian’s eyes widened. “He actually dared to return to the Demon Realm?”

Back then, Elder Huan Yue of the Illusory Demon tribe was one of Shangguan Lin’s followers.

He was one of the fishes that escaped the net during the war between the immortals and demons.

When the Demon King back then died, Chi Ming was only a few hundred years old. He was obsessed with cultivating and did not pay much attention to what happened outside.

He only knew that later on, the Red Dog tribe’s commander and the Illusory Demon tribe’s commander were killed by the Immortal World.

Now, the older generation of the demon race had all hidden themselves. Only the younger generation remained.

This was also the reason why he could become the commander of the two tribes despite only having a thousand years of cultivation.

“Fool.”

Shangguan Dian looked at Chi Ming coldly and said, “You don’t even know that you’ve been tricked.”

The real Demon King Token was probably not in Chi Ming’s hands but in Huan Yue’s.

The one who could break open the Demon Realm’s boundary was not the ‘Demon King Token’ in Chi Ming’s hands, but Huan Yue, who was hiding in the dark with the real Demon King Token.

The position of the Demon King was hereditary. It only recognized his bloodline. It was useless for other demons to possess the Demon King Token.

Why did Huan Yue steal the Demon King Token at this time? What was his motive?

Chi Ming seemed to have thought of Lu Sheng and was enlightened. “Demon King, I heard from the patriarch of the Red Dog tribe that there’s a mountain in the Demon Realm. A large-scale war between immortals and demons happened there, and it’s said that many immortal artifacts were lost.”

“However, the path into that mountain was sealed by the former Demon King. It was said that only the Demon King Token could open it.”

“There’s such a thing?”

Shangguan Dian frowned.

He had lived for ten thousand years but had never heard of this.

Lu Zhou, who was standing at the side, pondered and said, “I’ve heard Master mention this before. It’s said that a great war between immortals and demons happened in Ghost Mountain. At that time, there were countless deaths and injuries from both worlds. Many immortal artifacts and masters were left there.”

“Later, after both worlds reconciled, in order to prevent those immortals and demons who had turned into ghosts after their deaths from coming out to harm others, the Demon King used up thousands of years of his cultivation and specially sealed the path to that mountain.”

Shangguan Dian’s eyes reddened immediately. “No wonder Father couldn’t even defeat Shangguan Lin!”

Originally, his father’s cultivation level was at least two thousand years higher than Shangguan Lin’s.

He thought that Shangguan Lin would not have his way. It turned out that his father had used up thousands of years of his cultivation in order to seal the path to that mountain!

Lu Zhou walked forward and patted his shoulder. He said in a low voice, “It has already happened. There’s no point being sad. However, I suggest you return to the Demon Realm.”

If those ghosts came out, not to mention the Demon Realm, but even the human world and the Immortal World would be implicated.
