Because the commotion caused by this matter was too great, the Demon Race soon learned of this news.
They had been fighting with humans for hundreds of years. Although they did not have any technology, after so many years, they knew how to use human technology and the internet.
There were even quite a number of demons who would often sneak onto the human network to understand all sorts of information about humans.
Humans knew about this, but they did not need to stop it. After all, it was not a big deal. It could be said that this was a tacit agreement after many battles between humans and the demon race.
Sometimes, culture was also a means of war. Letting the demon race familiarize themselves with humans might make some demons identify with humans and reduce their resistance against humans.
Over time, most of the demon race learned to use the virtual network. There were even some demons who were extremely smart and built their own demon race forums and webpages.
"Something big happened in the human race recently. It is said that someone killed the Black Scorpion King's son, Scorpion Thirteen. This matter is known by everyone." A demon immediately spread the news.
"Scorpion Thirteen? That idiot? I heard about this a long time ago. "
A demon king's descendant sneered and said, "Its innate talent isn't good, so it wants to play some tricks. It wants to use the Sky Demon Instillation Formation and the demon king's aura that has been accumulated for ten thousand years to improve its bloodline and even increase its cultivation."
"He overestimated himself. If this method is really useful, why didn't many demons do it after so many years? Instead, he is the only one doing it."
"This is because once the evil energy enters the body, it will immediately destroy the body's bloodline. Even a king can't expel it. This is equivalent to cutting off the hope of reaching a higher realm."
"It thought that it could resist this kind of erosion, and with the help of the treasure bestowed by the Black Scorpion King, it would definitely succeed. But in reality, that is simply impossible. After all, the demonic spirit mine contains a terrifying baleful aura, as well as demonic aura. Even a demon king wouldn't dare to touch it."
He was very disdainful of Scorpion Thirteen and even looked down on him.
This was normal. Humans were just one race, but there were many forces inside. They fought with each other and it was difficult to unite.
There were many demon races, such as the Tiger Race, Bear Race, Scorpion Race, Wolf Race, Fox Race, and so on. These races fought with each other before humans came to the Cloud World.
Some races even had a blood feud with each other.
Although they were temporarily united due to the appearance of the human race, it was impossible for them to become friendly with each other.
"Although Scorpion Thirteen was an idiot and used evil methods, he was still a member of the demon race. He was killed, so we must avenge him."
There were demons who considered problems from the perspective of the big picture.
"Easy for you to say. How can we avenge him? Do we have to go to the human territory to kill him?"
"Tsk tsk, even demon monarchs do not dare to venture deep into human territory, afraid that they will be besieged and die. Which demon has the ability to venture deep into human territory?"
"That Scorpion Thirteen ran to the human territory and behaved atrociously. This matter is completely unreasonable. Are we going to start a war between the human race and the Monster race for this brat? Don't joke around. Haven't the blood of our Monster race been spilled yet?"
Many demons sneered and did not agree with avenging Scorpion Thirteen. They did not want to casually start a war at this time. It was not beneficial to any race.
"Alright, don't boost the morale of others and belittle your own. Whether we start a war or not is not something we small characters can decide. In short, let's see what the Black Scorpion King will do. We just have to wait and see."
A demon said in a deep voice.
"If there's a chance, I'd like to meet that human. Although Scorpion Thirteen is indeed an idiot, his strength isn't simple either. To be able to kill him alone and even kill his elite guards, his combat strength is indeed extraordinary." A demon's eyes revealed a cold glint. "If we can take this human as a slave, he will definitely be a powerful force with endless benefits."
It wanted to capture Xia Ping and make him its slave, working like a slave.
"Hehe, interesting. This idea is not bad."
"Indeed, if we can capture this human who killed Scorpion Thirteen as a slave, it will be a very honorable thing."
"This is a slap to the Black Scorpion King's face."
"It has already lost all its face because of Scorpion Thirteen. Losing it again is nothing."
The eyes of some demons flickered, revealing a cold glint. They also began to become interested in Xia Ping. Each of them wanted to capture Xia Ping and make him their slave.
… …
Not long after Xia Ping returned to Western Desolation City, the news reached the Black Scorpion King's ears. Its own son was killed in front of everyone, and it was even posted on the internet. This was simply a great humiliation.
This kind of behavior completely angered the Black Scorpion King.
It was said that on that day, the entire cave was destroyed. The mountains within a circumference of a hundred miles collapsed and were razed to the ground. Countless demons died.
When a king was angry, corpses would float for a thousand miles.
Soon, the Black Scorpion King released a message to the humans, asking them to hand over the murderer who killed its son. They had to kneel and beg for mercy in front of everyone. They even wanted to kill their entire family to serve as a warning to others. Otherwise, it would massacre ten human cities as revenge.
This news caused the entire human world to boil.
"This Black Scorpion King is too arrogant."
"It wants us to hand over the murderer and even wants to kill our entire family. What does it think we humans are? Are we its slaves that it can kill whenever it wants?!"
"It even threatens to massacre ten human cities at every turn. It wants to start a war with us humans!"
"We definitely can't agree to it. Otherwise, if every demon king comes to threaten us, we humans will have to retreat. Would we still have any dignity?"
"If it dares to come to human cities, we will kill it. We will kill a demon king!"
Countless humans were incomparably angry. This Black Scorpion King was too overbearing and arrogant. It simply did not put humans in its eyes and would massacre cities at every turn as revenge.
"We must kill the Black Scorpion King at all costs. This demon king is too arrogant."
"It's already so arrogant because of the death of one of its sons. If we destroy its country in the future, won't we have to cede territory and pay reparations?"
"If we agree to this request now, every demon king will do the same thing, killing one of its sons to scam the humans. Won't we have to pay reparations?! If that happens, no matter how much money we have, it won't be enough to pay, and no matter how many people we have, it won't be enough to kill them. "
"If it wants to fight, then let's fight. We humans are not afraid of death."
Some people believed that they had to send kings to kill the Black Scorpion King to scare the monkeys. Otherwise, these demon kings would not know what it meant to fear humans.
However, there were some who remained silent, because experts at the Demon King level were simply too difficult to kill.
