The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 675
Chapter 675 Diabolism Freshmen (4)
Everyone’s expressions changed when they saw this scene.
“You have only just entered the Myriad Devil Palace and can control the power of the Demon Palace. The descendants of the Demon Ancestor are indeed extraordinary.” Their faces were solemn.
“Furthermore, from the looks of it, this authority seems to be even greater than our elders. Doesn’t this mean that we can’t do anything to Li Qing in the Myriad Devil Palace?”
“No wonder you dared to kill an elder with a single saber. So you are fearless.”
“We’ve been suppressed by a junior who has just entered the Void Realm. We old men have all survived on dogs.” One of them laughed loudly.
Someone said, “Li Qing, you are too presumptuous. This is the Myriad Devil Sect. Do not act recklessly just because you are the descendant of the Devil Ancestor!”
“Isn’t Diabolism’s rule that experts should be respected? Whoever has a bigger fist is right. Why are you all learning from Righteous path’s useless set of things?” Li Qing said expressionlessly.
“Even so, how can the elders of the Devil Sect kill just like that?”
“It’s not like I killed someone casually. Heartless Old Ghost already has a grudge against me. Get rid of this hidden danger as soon as possible so as to avoid using a knife behind my back. Am I wrong?”
“Enough. Stop arguing meaninglessly. Li Qing has a special status. Leave the matter of killing Heartless Old Ghost to the Demon Lord to handle personally.” The Great Elder of the Myriad Devil Sect finally stood up and spoke.
“Alright, let the Demon Lord personally punish this arrogant disciple of yours!” The few of them retreated indignantly.
In fact, apart from Devil Master Yin Tianhong and a few other special characters, there was probably no one else who could cure Li Qing. This fellow’s identity was too special. He was a dignified descendant of the Devil Ancestor. Not to mention that these ordinary elders didn’t dare to make a move at will, even if they really wanted to, there was nothing they could do. The power of the Myriad Devil Palace was not a joke. Li Qing controlled such authority, and he could almost walk around here horizontally.
The hall fell silent again, and everyone waited quietly. Not far away was Heartless Old Ghost’s corpse, and no one had collected it for him. Blood flowed out, and it emitted a nauseating smell of blood.
Not long after, a figure suddenly appeared on the Myriad Demon Throne, emitting a terrifying aura. It was Demon Lord Yin Tianhong.
This time, his true body had actually descended, not an avatar!
“Greetings, Demon Lord!” Everyone lowered their heads.
“There’s no need to be too polite.”
“Demon Lord, Li Qing has acted recklessly and killed our Demon Sect’s elders. Please decide and punish him for his sins!” Immediately, someone stepped forward to report, his voice filled with excitement.
“If you kill him, then kill him. Pull down Heartless Old Ghost’s corpse and feed it to the Myriad Devil Flower.” The demon lord’s voice was cold and heartless, causing everyone to feel a chill.
“Isn’t this … a little rash?” They felt very aggrieved.
“My strength is weak, I can’t blame anyone. What, do you have any opinions about my decision?”
“I don’t dare!” Everyone didn’t dare to say anything else, and their gazes towards Li Qing changed, carrying a faint sense of reverence.
The status of the Demon Ancestor’s descendants in Yin Tianhong’s heart seemed to be much higher than he had imagined.
Many people’s eyes revealed thoughtful expressions as they were able to let go of the matter of killing the Devil Sect Elders so easily.
Soon, someone walked out and dragged the two corpses away, leaving behind a long bloody scar on the hall. It was eerie and terrifying.
Heartless Old Ghost’s death did not cause a single ripple before he regained his calm.
The Demon Lord sat quietly on the Throne of Myriad Devils. He did not say anything and kept his gaze on Li Qing. He did not know what he was thinking.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent, and Myriad Devil Hall was completely silent. Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to breathe.
Li Qing was calm and composed. His gaze was flat, and he indifferently endured the gaze of the Demon Lord.
“It’s good that you’re awake! The descendant of the Demon Ancestor won’t die so easily. From now on, you will be a member of our Myriad Devil Sect!” The Demon Lord’s voice finally rang out.
“Thank you, Demon Lord, for saving me earlier. I am extremely grateful. Of course, I am extremely happy to join the Myriad Devil Sect.” Li Qing bowed slightly.
“Since you are the descendant of the Devil Ancestor, your status is so special. You must not be too low to join our Myriad Devil Sect. You should be treated as Holy Son of the Devil.”
“Holy Son of the Devil!” Everyone’s expressions changed when they heard this.
Holy Son of the Devil was equivalent to the Young Sect Master of the Myriad Devil Sect. In the future, he would have a chance to take over the position of Sect Master.
Of course, within the Myriad Devil Sect, there were also two other Holy Son of the Devil. Li Qing was the third candidate. Whether or not he could succeed in the future, he still needed to compete with those few people.
For example, the Demon Saint You Luo that Li Qing knew was a Holy Son of the Devil!
“There seems to be no precedent for Li Qing to take up the position of Saint Son just after joining the Myriad Devil Palace. Li Qing is only at the early stage of the Void Realm, and his strength is a bit weak. It is not suitable for him to take on this important task for the time being.”
“Why don’t we temporarily grant the position of elder?” Someone suggested.
“There’s no need for Diabolism to stick to the old ways. I’ve decided. There’s no need to say anything.” Yin Tianhong’s expression was dignified as he struck a final blow.
“Yes!” Everyone no longer objected.
“A month later, invite many of Devil Gate’s fellow daoists to come to Myriad Devil Palace to witness Li Qing’s inauguration ceremony for Holy Son of the Devil!”
“I will obey the Demon Lord’s decree!”
“If there’s nothing else, then you can leave first. Li Qing, stay here. I have something to say to you!” The Demon Lord said.
“Subordinate, please leave!” Many elders left the Myriad Devil Hall one after another.
Only Li Qing and the Demon Lord were left in the main hall. They were dark and deep, silent, causing one’s heart to feel depressed.
“You’ve changed!”
“Everyone will change.”
“Should I call you Li Qinghao now, or Demon Ancestor?”
As soon as Yin Tianhong said those words, it was as if he had shocked the heavens. However, Li Qing’s face was still calm, without any change.
“What do you mean?” Li Qing asked.
“I can vaguely see the shadow of the Demon Ancestor from your body. It’s cold, domineering, and heartless. This is definitely not the Li Qing from before!”
“That’s why I’m a little suspicious. Did the Demon Ancestor borrow his body to return to his soul?” Yin Tianhong’s eyes stared at Li Qing, as if they could pierce through people’s hearts.
“Isn’t that what you wanted? Otherwise, why did you throw the Eternal Demon Saber into the Myriad Devil Pool? Isn’t it just to use the will of the saber to stimulate the memories of the Demon Ancestor and change my character?” Li Qing chuckled.
The Eternal Demon Saber originally contained endless killing intent, and Li Qing was often affected in the past, becoming bloodthirsty and ruthless.
When he was affected by the Devil Saber, a distinctive feature was that his eyes glowed with purple light, like purple blood overflowing out.
“That’s right, that’s exactly what I hope for. The slaughter will in the Devil Saber, combined with the memories of the Devil Ancestor in the depths of your sea of consciousness, seized this opportunity to completely fuse with you when your primordial spirit was shattered. I believe that even if the transformation of the Devil Saber was not completely successful, it would not be a failure, right?” Yin Tianhong’s voice carried an inexplicable meaning.
“I’m still Li Qing, forever. Nothing can change me!” Li Qing said in a deep voice.
“But in fact, you have been affected,” Yin Tianhong said. “Your performance just now has already fully illustrated this point.”
“Right now, you have two personalities. One is your own, upright, courageous, and a little vulgar. The other is the demon ancestor’s, formed from the slaughter will in the demon saber combined with the memories of the demon ancestor. Overbearing, slaughtering, and cold-blooded!”
“In the past, you only showed a cold and heartless side when you were occasionally affected by the demonic saber. But now, you no longer need the demonic saber to deliberately influence you. You will always show it because it is already a part of your character.”
“This also means that the current you are enchanted!”
“Demonic?”
After a moment of silence, Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh, “So what if my personality is affected a little? To me, this is not a bad thing at all. I used to be a little indecisive, but now I am perfect.”
“I am very gratified that you have such thoughts. Only in this way can you be the successor of the Devil Ancestor!” Yin Tianhong smiled.
“Speaking of which, why do I feel like I’ve been tricked by you?”
“Oh? What do you mean?”
“Ever since you tossed the Heavenly Saber into the Myriad Devil Lake and caused it to transform my soul, I have some doubts.” Li Qing slowly said, “I presume that the layout must have started from the beginning, right?”
Yin Tianhong smiled faintly, “Continue. Let me see what your guess is.”
Li Qing said, “When you met me for the first time, I made a condition for you to help me rescue my wife, so that I can join the Myriad Devil Sect willingly.”
“But you didn’t agree at that time. This is very puzzling to me. It can only be explained as the timing isn’t right yet. I didn’t have any feelings for the Myriad Devil Sect at that time.”
‘”Later, in Ying Tian City, I asked the Myriad Devil Sect to help me escape. At that time, your arrangement was actually reasonable. However, when you turned around and thought about it, you felt that something was wrong.”
“Does the Myriad Devil Sect really need to travel three hundred miles to meet me?”
‘”If you really want to help me leave, there’s no need to be so troublesome. Ying Tian City is not a place where people can be trapped. You can enter and exit at will. There are many ways to escape.”
“Of course, I can also understand that you don’t want to pay too much.”
“But later on, it turned out that even the Myriad Devil Palace came out of the underground. You are willing to pay this price. There’s no reason why you wouldn’t use other methods.”
“If you want to help me escape, it’s really very simple. All you need to do is give me a Great Void Shifting Divine Talisman.”
“Although this talisman is very precious, even I can get one. There’s no reason why you can’t get one.”
“You can even borrow a treasure from me that is specifically used to conceal your aura, and use it to evade the divine sense of Void Realm experts. I believe you should be able to do so as well.”
“The Myriad Devil Sect has a deep foundation. It can’t be that they can’t even take out these things, right? There are many ways to avoid the eyes and ears of Void Realm experts.”
“But in the end, you all chose the most stupid method. Although it is reasonable, it is also slightly unreasonable.”
“I think your goal is to change me into a completely devilish devil, and become a complete devilish devil!” “I think your goal is not to get drunk. What you want most is to change me into a completely devilish person!”
“Letting me enter the Devil is your main goal. The main reason why you didn’t accept me to join the Myriad Devil Sect at the first meeting was that I didn’t have a heart of Diabolism. There is still justice in my heart. Even if I barely joined, it would be counterproductive!”
‘”I was thinking that even if I hadn’t escaped from Ying Tian City this time, or if I hadn’t allowed me to enter the Devil Realm this time, then there must have been other plans. Continue to arrange for me to go against the Righteous path until I completely enter the Devil Realm!”
Yin Tianhong quietly listened to Li Qing’s reasoning and couldn’t help but applaud, “Very wonderful reasoning!”
“Your mind seems to have become smarter after being transformed by the Devil Saber. However, you seem to have made a mistake.”
“What is it?” Li Qing asked.
