The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal - Chapter 201:
Chapter 201: Chapter 201: The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch Strikes, the Truth is Right Before Our Eyes
As Ye Feng walked along the underground passage, inside a huge domed structure, the Bull-headed Person, illusioned by the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, stood in the middle of the grand hall.
Surrounded by many powerful members of the Demon Race.
Dog-headed Creatures, Mangy Dogs, Giant Rhinos, One-eyed Wolves…
All sorts of strange and bizarre Demonic Beasts made up a ragtag army known as the “Mangy Dog Army,” numbering up to three thousand.
Upon the throne.
A Mangy Dog stood upright, one hand behind its back and the other gently stroking the Bull-headed Person’s head, muttering, “From today forth, you, Bull Warrior, shall be the eighth Sub-General under the command of my Mangy Dog Army.”
“Thank you, Dog General!” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch said loudly.
“Dog General? Well said!”
The Mangy Dog Demon General laughed heartily, looking at the mask on the face of the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch and said, “Remember, you are the Bull Warrior and also the Sub-General of our Mangy Dog Army. Today, we will lead the army together to strike at Eternal Dream City and make our mark.”
“Kill, kill, kill!”
The other Sub-Generals shouted one after another.
The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch felt a wave of fear, he quickly transmitted a message to Ye Feng through the Spiritual Beast contract, “Sect Leader, where on earth have you died off to? If you don’t come back soon, I’m going to end up being mixed into a Demon General! Also, I’m being forced to go out and fight.”
“You’re going out of the city? Good, then go quickly, and better not to come back,” Ye Feng transmitted back.
“Sect Leader, come on, what if I don’t want to go out?” The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch lowered his head, a bit panicked, and thankfully wearing a mask so that no one could see the change in his complexion.
“I’m speaking the truth!” Ye Feng fell silent, “I’m gradually approaching the truth, and a major battle might erupt. You’re too weak, so take this opportunity to leave the city. If you get the chance, kill a few Demon Generals for me.”
Having said that, Ye Feng continued to advance deeper along the passage.
“So that’s it!” The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch was relieved.
Just then, the Dog General picked up a steel trident and waved it fiercely, declaring, “Alright, Mangy Dog Army, follow my command and attack Eternal Dream City!”
No sooner had the words fallen than it led the way out the door.
Following behind were the Dog-headed Creatures, the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, and the other seven Sub-Generals.
While leaving the city, the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch stole glances around him and noticed not far away was an odd half-transformed pig demon with a pig’s head and body but human legs and arms, swaying as it walked, with hundreds of Demonic Beasts following behind.
If Qinghun Zhenren were to come back to life, he would find that this pig demon was his junior brother.
Souhun Zhenren!
“That half-transformed pig demon is the Sub-General under the Wild Boar General’s command, a recent newcomer to the city. It’s said to have once slaughtered an entire ancient town and is not weak. Bull Warrior, you must work hard and strive to become the first Sub-General under my command,” the Dog General suddenly turned his head and spoke to the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, who was looking around.
“Oh, right!” The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch was taken aback.
Before long.
The Mangy Dog Army left through the east city gate, reaching a small town tens of miles away in less than half an incense stick’s time.
Eternal Dream City!
There was a damaged small-scale city defense formation in place, and inside, a wounded Human Race Element Gathering Realm cultivator stood pale-faced, bleakly watching the approaching thousands-strong Demon Race Army.
“I never thought I, Wu Liangcai, would die here!” The Human Race Element Gathering Realm cultivator sighed.
He stood up, looked at the several hundred Cultivators behind him, and shouted, “Cultivators of Eternal Dream City, listen up! The day of the decisive battle has come. Even if we die, we must kill as many of the Demon Race as we can, and uphold the might of the Human Race!”
“Fight!”
The Cultivators of Eternal Dream City roared in rage, each one clutching their Spiritual Artifacts or ordinary artifacts, showing a resolved expression in their eyes.
“Heavenly Dog’s Claw!”
The Dog General, holding the steel trident, slashed down at Eternal Dream City’s formation, splitting it in two, and then led the army charging in.
Bang!
In the first confrontation, the City Lord, Wu Liangcai, was knocked to the ground by the Dog General, with his injuries deepening and nearly losing the power to fight again.
“Haha, Demon Race Army, charge… Ah!” the Dog General waved the steel trident high above, like an invincible war god, the terrifying aura sweeping out, causing all the Cultivators and common folk of the city to feel chilled to the bone and a sense of despair.
But the next moment, a steel trident pierced through the Dog General’s chest.
“Who… is sneak-attacking me?” The Dog General turned his head with difficulty and saw the Bull-headed Person wearing a mask, his pupils suddenly constricting.
“Sorry, I’m an undercover agent.” The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch spoke solemnly, his voice quickly spreading out, like a tidal wave sweeping the surroundings, shocking and resonating with the hearts of those who heard.
The Bull Warrior, an undercover agent?
All the members of the Demon Race were stunned.
The cultivators of the Human Race from Eternal Dream City were also dumbstruck.
Whoosh!
The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch finally stopped hiding and erupted with the aura of a Lower Rank Demon General, instantly blowing up the head of the Dog-headed Creature and killing the Demon General.
“You’re actually a Demon General!”
“Dammit, our Demon City actually had a Demon General level undercover!”
The remaining seven semi-transformed Demon Race Sub-Generals were terrified and scattered in all directions.
“You won’t escape!” roared the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, his Demon General aura exploding forth. His body transformed into a sword tens of meters long, and with seven continuous slashes, he killed the remaining seven Sub-Generals.
As for the remaining Demon Race Army, the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch killed a portion, but the rest fled too quickly. It was already too late to pursue them.
“This… esteemed Demon General, who might you be?” Wu Liangcai, City Lord of Eternal Dream City, was helped up onto the city wall, swallowed hard, found everything too surreal, and hurriedly asked the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch.
“Don’t ask who I am. All you need to know is that I am one of our own,” bragged the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, feeling pleased with himself, as he swaggered away toward the Nanlu Mountain Range under the gazes of admiration from everyone.
If Ye Feng were here, he would’ve cursed him thoroughly.
Because the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch not only failed to take the corpses of the Dog General and the seven Sub-Generals but also didn’t reveal the name of the Misty Sect, missing out on thousands of Prestige Points.
On the other hand, Ye Feng finally reached the bottommost section of the underground passage.
This place was thirty li deep and surrounded by chilling cold.
At the forefront, there appeared to be a square gate similar to the one on the surface.
After Ye Feng placed a fang into the groove on the gate, he found that the gate did not open. Thus, he took out the drop of blood from the Fox Clan Princess, smeared it on the fang, and finally opened the heavy stone gate.
What met his eyes was a huge stone chamber, about a hundred meters wide, long, and high.
In the center, there was a platform with a Giant Earth Ape lying flat on it, its limbs robust and about ten meters tall, radiating an extremely terrifying aura. Even without fully unfolding, it considerably increased the pressure on Ye Feng.
[Giant Earth Ape: Lower Rank Demon King (Dormant)]
[Talent: Enlargement]
[Note: An on-the-verge-of-falling Giant Earth Ape, sealed under the ground for numerous years, only its last breath of consciousness remains. It has been refined by the Fox Clan Demon King, and upon absorbing enough qi and blood, it can erupt with the power of the first layer of the Spirit Sea Realm once again.]
“No wonder the Demon City has captured so many people; they are planning a blood sacrifice to revive the power of the dormant Demon King, the Giant Earth Ape!”
Ye Feng exclaimed in shock.
[Ding, mission progress 90%]
The System began to prompt again.
“I’ve found the corpse of the Giant Earth Ape, and yet the mission isn’t fully completed? Could it be that there’s more to this secret?” Ye Feng pondered, walking around the corpse of the Giant Earth Ape, and noticed that the ground was etched with ancient Array Patterns, clearly for the purpose of a blood sacrifice.
Crack!
Without a second word, Ye Feng smashed the floor and destroyed the Formation.
[Ding, mission progress 95%]
Just the last five percent to go!
Ye Feng’s gaze sharpened, and with all his might, he swung a Lower Grade Spirit Sword at the body of the Giant Earth Ape, only to hear a “crack” as the Spirit Sword broke!
“Tough indeed!”
Unable to damage the Giant Earth Ape, he could not complete the mission progress either.
Meanwhile, on the ground above.
“Ouch, that hurts!” The Fox Clan Princess finally awoke, rubbing the back of her head, realized that Ye Feng was long gone, and quickly ran out of the dome-shaped dwelling.
“Your Highness, you’ve played for so long this time; that man must be sucked dry to just a layer of skin, right?” a Bear Tribe Demon General asked with a grin.
“Oh no!” The Fox Clan Princess immediately realized something was wrong.
Inside a grand hall.
After hearing the account of the Fox Clan Princess, the Fox Clan Demon King abruptly stood up, saying, “No wonder I noticed someone entering the underground passage just now. I thought you were being mischievous, but it turned out… we’ve been infiltrated by an undercover agent!”
“Quick, head to the underground tunnel at once!”
The Fox Clan Demon King unleashed a terrifying aura, instantly flying out, with dozens of Demon Generals trailing behind him, their aura formidable.
