Chapter 309: That Scoundrel Is Called the Heavenly Demon Lord?
Xiao Juechen chose to compromise and agreed to go and invite the Lord of All Demons as per the demands of the woman in red.
The massive dragon in the void was slightly surprised and looked towards the direction of Xiao Juechen. Despite not speaking and being far apart, the expression of astonishment in its eyes clearly implied, "Are you really going to invite the chief?"
Upon this, Xiao Juechen could only smile helplessly and shake his head. "What else can we do?"
It struggled out with difficulty from the decayed human head, its appearance covered in blood and dirt, looking extremely wretched.
And once Xiao Juechen crawled out of the decayed human head, the wicked aura that surrounded it instantly weakened by a large extent. Amidst a few indistinct curses, the decayed human head vanished into Xiao Juechen's shadow.
It looks like he has a bad temper.
Under the moonlight, Xiao Juechen, who had shed his blood-stained clothes and regained his slender and weak scholar image, respectfully bowed to the red-clothed woman above and said,
"Please wait a moment, goddess. I will immediately go and invite the Demon Lord," said the younger one.
The red-clothed woman coldly snorted and said, "You better hurry up. You have fifteen minutes."
"If the Lord of All Demons doesn't appear before me in fifteen minutes, I will pull out the fulcrum of your Three Realms Formation and destroy all the demons in this mountain," she threatened.
Lian Cangqing issued a chilling threat.
Xiao Juechen forced a bitter smile and reluctantly bowed before turning around and heading towards the mountain.
"Please wait, goddess."
After speaking, Xiao Juechen was about to disappear into the mountain.
Lu Heng swiftly caught up and said, "I will travel with you."
Lu Heng dared not leave Xiao Juechen alone in this situation.
The red-clothed woman before them was incredibly powerful, her palm techniques were exquisite and difficult to match. If the Lord of All Demons were to falter in the face of such a strong opponent, would the demon monsters hiding in their caves rather die than come out?
In that case, wouldn't Lu Heng be unable to see the Lord of All Demons or find the true location of the Green Hell Cave?
To be on the safe side, Lu Heng decided to leave with Xiao Juechen.
However, as soon as Lu Heng opened his mouth, the woman in the distance with red clothes coldly snorted.
"You want to leave, then leave? You want to stay, then stay? You, who are of unknown origin and full of evil, stay here as hostages with that dragon. If the Lord of All Demons doesn't show up, I'll kill a few of you as sacrifices!"
The murderous intent in Lian Cangqing's eyes was evident as she demanded that Lu Heng stay behind, her aggressive tone without any ounce of mercy. Xiao Ai's expression turned slightly cold at such a disrespectful and vicious attitude.
Lu Heng didn't get angry. Although the woman was vicious, Lu Heng had seen many such people.
Moreover, the most important thing is that he is currently the Heavenly Demon Lord, not the Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain, so the Heavenly Thunder Sword cannot be unsheathed.
Without the Heavenly Thunder Sword, Lu Heng had to rely on sorcery to maintain the image of an evil cultivator.
Unfortunately, he didn't cultivate demon cultivation. Although the Demon Sutra recorded many extremely profound evil techniques, Lu Heng could only master the superficial knowledge of it.
Those evil techniques are suitable for pranks, but using them to confront enemies directly is difficult.
Therefore, even though Lu Heng had a bad temper, at this time he could only greet with a smiling face, not to mention that he was not a person with a violent temper in the first place.
Faced with Lian Cangqing's bad tone, Lu Heng still greeted her with a smiling face.
"Miss, there's something I need to tell you. I am not a disciple of the Green Hell Cave. Even if you keep me here, you cannot threaten the Lord of All Demons."
Lu Heng spoke and the woman in red clothes looked him up and down before saying.
"Not a monster from the Green Hell Cave? Hmm… even I can't see the depth of your strength, but the evil death qi on your body is quite impressive."
"He's really not on the same level as those two useless ones, as an evil cultivator."
Lian Cangqing's contemptuous tone clearly expressed her disdain towards Xiao Juechen and to General Tiger Dragon, one of the Three Demon Generals.
However, at this moment, Lian Cangqing's disdain is so strong that even the hot-tempered General Tiger Dragon dare not speak out of turn, for this woman truly has the capital to be arrogant.
Xiao Juechen's heart was slightly moved upon hearing Lian Cangqing's words, completely confirming his previous conjecture.
This Heavenly Demon Lord is indeed an unparalleled and prominent figure in the demonic path!
Even the powerful Lian Cangqing couldn't see through the evil lord's reality. Perhaps they were both innate masters of the same level.
At the thought of this, Xiao Juechen quickly said to Lu Heng, "I will trouble the evil lord to take care of things here for a moment. I will quickly invite the master of the cave to come out."
Lu Heng, however, grabbed him again and said, "No, no, we have to go together."
Lu Heng said, "I can't wait to meet the Demon Lord."
As he spoke, Lu Heng's eyes conveyed a subtle signal.
Although Lu Heng was hinting at something, he himself didn't know what it was.
But he just wanted Xiao Juechen to know that he had a very important reason to leave together.
As for what this reason was, Xiao Juechen would figure it out by himself.
Sure enough, after a subtle hint from Lu Heng, Xiao Juechen was suddenly startled and seemed to understand something.
It turned to the woman in the distance and said, "Indeed, the Evil Lord is not a disciple of our sect, but rather a guest who happened to be here. The affairs of our sect should not affect him, and I should take the Evil Lord to rest in our sect."
After saying that, Xiao Juechen intended to take Lu Heng to flee into the mountains together.
However, at the moment when the two of them flew up, the woman in red in the night sky shook her head coldly.
"No! He can't leave!"
Watching Lu Heng's figure, Lian Cangqing said, "I really like this person who is covered in Evil Death Qi. He must stay and let me take a good look at him. You can go inside alone and call out the Lord of All Demons."
While speaking, the woman in red kept her gaze fixed on Lu Heng.
Even Lu Heng couldn't help feeling a bit of heat at the moment.
His expression was a bit strange - why did this woman suddenly start paying attention to him?
In the wind, Lu Heng smiled and said, "Miss, I appreciate your kindness, but unfortunately, we are destined to be strangers, so there is no need to force it."
Standing on the escape light, Lu Heng, Xiao Ai, Shen Wuyou, and Xiao Juechen ascended towards the middle sky.
It was obvious that he intended to ignore the woman's opinion and leave directly.
Seeing this scene, the woman in the red clothes sneered and said, "Leaving? Did I agree? I said stay, so stay!"
After speaking, she directly formed a sword with one hand and struck heavily towards Lu Heng and the others in the distance.
In the void, that escape light was instantly destroyed by a slash.
Xiao Juechen's escape light disappeared into the mountain, but the figures of Lu Heng and the others fell out of it.
Seeing this scene, the woman in red sneered and said, "I said you cannot leave, just… huh?!"
As soon as the smug sneer came out, it stopped abruptly.
The three figures that were slashed out of the void disappeared directly with a light sway under the moonlight.
A little bit of evil demon overflowed and flowed in the night wind.
The woman who smelled the evil demon had a sudden change in her face color.
"Evil Spirit Disperses Soul Technique?"
With a sudden swing of her arm, the woman in red summoned General Tiger Dragon from miles away, who was dragged by an immense force towards her before he could even react.
The enormous dragon, hundreds of feet long, was now being held by the neck by a woman in red who was not even the size of its fingernail, and was angrily interrogating it.
"That scoundrel, is his name the Heavenly Demon Lord?!"
