Black River City was undoubtedly next to the Black River.
The huge stone walls were four to five meters tall. The city walls that maintained the original color of the stone were crude and thick.
Standing on the open plains, Black River City seemed even more majestic. The bright light was enough to dominate the city.
Tens of thousands of meters above Black River City, a huge fireball hung in the air, illuminating the surrounding area as bright as day.
To Gao Zhengyang, who was used to the dim light of the underground Demon World, the fireball's light was a bit blinding.
Even Black River City seemed to have gained a bit of a dignified aura.
Having seen the crude stupidity of the demons, Gao Zhengyang was surprised to see Black River City.
After all, the demons weren't all useless fools.
The flow of the Black River that passed through Black River City became extremely gentle here. Not far from the city walls of the Black River, there was actually a dam. Many ships were anchored by the long dam.
Demons of all shapes and sizes were operating all sorts of oddly shaped wooden ships, bustling about on and off the dam. It looked like it was flourishing.
There was a tall city to defend against enemies, and a river to transport resources. This Black River City already had the aura of a large city.
Gao Zhengyang wasn't afraid of the demons' savagery. No matter how savage a beast was, it was still prey. But if the demons had intelligence and knew how to build, they would be terrifying.
Reality proved that the demons were also highly intelligent. Even if they were naturally bloodthirsty and warlike. They were completely different from demonic beasts without intelligence.
"You demons aren't all idiots …"
Gao Zhengyang looked at Black River City and sighed.
The pig demon at the side lowered his fat pig head, obediently and respectfully, not making a sound.
No matter how much Gao Zhengyang mocked the demons, he didn't have the right to speak.
After following Gao Zhengyang for a while, he understood a principle. In front of Gao Zhengyang, he didn't need to act clever or stupid. Only by being obedient could he survive.
"Bajie, do you know Tu Li?" Gao Zhengyang suddenly asked.
The pig demon was shocked, but he didn't dare to hesitate. "I've seen him, but I don't know him. Tu Li is a ninth rank Chaos Demon General. His status is much higher than mine. "
"What kind of character does he have?"
Gao Zhengyang did not look at the pig demon. He seemed to be chatting casually. The pig demon did not dare to speak carelessly. After thinking for a while, he cautiously said, "Tu Li is undoubtedly the strongest expert in the Black River Plains. Here, the power of level nine was restricted. However, the other demons respected him very much. He also kept a low profile. It's said that he's very astute and wise. "
"What a cunning old fox. What is he trying to do by gathering all the demons in Black River City with great fanfare?"
The pig demon looked up at Gao Zhengyang and found that he seemed to be talking to himself. It was smart enough not to answer.
Gao Zhengyang continued, "Say, what do you think Tu Li will do if I go around Black River City and attack somewhere else?"
The pig demon didn't dare to play dumb. He hesitated and said, "Tu Li doesn't care about the lives of the other demons. He probably wanted to take this opportunity to unite the scattered demons. The other three Devil Clans were probably thinking the same thing. The demons don't care about you too much. "
As a Heaven Rank expert, the pig demon's mind was clear enough to easily see through the thoughts of the higher-ups.
Gao Zhengyang nodded, expressing his agreement with the pig demon. The higher-ups of the Devil Clans did not care about his threat.
Whether he was a single person or a force, it was not important.
As the passage between the Black River Plains and the human world gradually connected, there would definitely be an endless stream of demons entering the Black River Plains.
The millions of demons that Gao Zhengyang killed were insignificant to the demons. Not to mention millions, even if there were tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or billions of demons, the higher-ups of the Devil Clans would not care.
The Devil World didn't have anything else, but it had an inexhaustible number of devils.
To the higher-ups of the Devil Clans, they wanted to take advantage of the current situation to unify the chaotic Black River Plains and prepare for the invasion of the Devil Clans. This was the most important thing.
Before the unification was completed, the higher-ups of the Devil Clans hoped that Gao Zhengyang could live a while longer.
Gao Zhengyang could understand the intentions of the higher-ups of the Devil Clans. Indeed, in terms of strategy, the Devil Clans were already in an invincible position. No matter how much he tossed and turned, how many demons could he kill?
As the limit of vitality continued to decrease, even a Tier 9 powerhouse would not be able to toss and turn for long.
But to Gao Zhengyang, he also pursued a tactical victory. As long as he could raise the Blood God Flag to Tier 7 within these few months, it would be considered a success.
Gao Zhengyang did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. In his eyes, the demons were cockroaches and mice. No matter how many they killed, it was still eliminating harm. How could he have any unnecessary thoughts of sympathy or pity.
Even if he killed countless people, it would be too hypocritical to still want to pretend to be pure and kind.
However, this time Tu Li was wrong.
There were millions of demons gathered in Black River City, and there were countless experts among them. Under normal circumstances, no one could attack Black River City head-on.
But Gao Zhengyang was never an ordinary person. His goal was to kill as many demons as possible.
With millions of demons gathered in Black River City, it was like a delicacy placed in front of Gao Zhengyang. How could he give it up?
Gao Zhengyang looked at the wide open gates of Black River City and said to the pig demon with a troubled expression, "They've already stuck out their butts and taken off their pants. What do you think I should do?"
Although the pig demon was already prepared, his heart still turned cold when he heard Gao Zhengyang's words. He really did not understand what Gao Zhengyang wanted to do with the Devil Clans' experts gathered in Black River City.
But he was a pig in a pen. His life and death depended on a single thought from Gao Zhengyang. How could he dare to say anything? He could only grimace and squeeze out a clumsy and ugly smile while he nodded at Gao Zhengyang to show his agreement.
"I am a dignified human. How can I fight without a declaration?" Gao Zhengyang clapped his hands and said excitedly, "How about this, you go into the city and send a declaration of war to Tu Li."
The pig demon's ugly, fleshy face immediately changed color. He was originally very tanned, and the fur on his face was thick and coarse, making it impossible to see his complexion. But he was too angry. His black face was red, and he looked like a braised pig head.
Gao Zhengyang glanced at the pig demon. "Look at how excited you are. Don't worry, I will definitely entrust this glorious mission to you. Don't disappoint me. "
Gao Zhengyang's bright and cold eyes immediately extinguished the pig demon's anger. He shuddered and hurriedly replied, "Yes, I will definitely not disappoint you, Master."
"Good job, Pigsy." Gao Zhengyang patted the pig demon's shoulder heavily, causing him to stagger and almost fall to the ground.
The pig demon wept inwardly. I'm very timid. I don't want to die! Mommy, save me ….
No matter what the pig demon thought, he really did not have the courage to defy Gao Zhengyang. He did not even have the courage to flee.
At the very least, he could live a little longer if he listened to Gao Zhengyang. If he disobeyed, he would die immediately.
Thus, no matter how unwilling he was, the pig demon could only obey Gao Zhengyang. He did not even dare let out a fart.
"But what should I use to write the letter of challenge?" This was an idea that Gao Zhengyang had thought of on the spur of the moment. He had not prepared any paper or brush. His gaze shifted and finally fell on the pig demon.
The pig demon's heart went numb under Gao Zhengyang's gaze. He could not help but clamp his buttocks together. It was not that he was afraid of being penetrated, but that Gao Zhengyang had scared him to the point of pissing himself. If he did not clamp his buttocks together, he was afraid that the contents of his stomach would spill out.
"There's no other way. I'll have to wrong you," Gao Zhengyang comforted. "It won't hurt. Just bear with it."
The pig demon was speechless. However, tears began to form in his bean-sized eyes. For some reason, the pig demon even thought of an ancient human saying: "To choke speechlessly." He did not understand what it meant at first, but now he vaguely understood.
After the sharp pain passed, the pig demon entered Black River City under Gao Zhengyang's gaze.
There was a plain in front of Black River City. Because of the martial law, the vegetation on the plain in front of Black River City had long been cleared. Apart from the patrolling demon soldiers, there was no one else moving in this area.
Gao Zhengyang and the pig demon had stayed here for a long time. They had long attracted the attention of many demons in Black River City.
The pig demon was nothing special. It was the most common demon in the Devil World. However, the image of Gao Zhengyang in his golden armor and blood-red cloak was too eye-catching. It was impossible not to see him.
Even if he stood with millions of demons, Gao Zhengyang would still be the focus of attention.
Gao Zhengyang had killed countless demons along the way. But many demons had also escaped from his hands. The image of Shura Of Gojoseon had long spread throughout the Black River Plain.
In the beginning, many of the demons didn't dare to confirm it. After all, many demon experts were gathered in Black River City. As long as Shura Of Gojoseon had a brain, he would not come here. Why would he stand so boldly in front of the city?
When the pig demon strode through the city gates, the demons were even more confused. They did not know what the pig demon was thinking, nor did they know what he was plotting.
It was precisely because they were thinking too much that the usually vicious and cruel demons did not dare to act rashly.
The pig demon also walked into Black River City in fear, afraid that the other demons would not even ask questions and directly chop him, a traitor, into meat paste.
Fortunately, that did not happen.
Looking at the demons in front of him who were holding sabers and spears with vigilance, the pig demon actually felt a bit of disdain. Such a cautious appearance was a disgrace to the demon race.
"I am Zhu Gangbin of the pig demon race. I wish to see Lord Tu Li." The pig demon tried his best to speak in a proud and calm tone.
The pig demon also knew that if he showed the slightest bit of fear, the demons opposite him would swarm and kill him. Only by acting arrogant would the other party not dare to act rashly.
The group of demon soldiers did not dare to move. After a while, a voice came from behind, "Bring him to see Lord Tu Li."
This group of soldiers surrounded the pig demon and escorted him all the way to the city lord's residence.
The buildings of the city lord's residence were very tall, and the main color was black. Although the buildings were neatly built, gray dust was everywhere, and there was a stench in the air. No matter how one looked at it, it looked filthy and filthy.
Tu Li was a Chaos Demon. When Chaos Demons were at a low level, they were more like large worms that liked to dig holes in the ground and live underground.
Although Tu Li was at the ninth level and had taken human form, he still liked the dry and dusty environment. Deep down, he still liked the dry and dusty environment. Usually, he would even live in a deep cave. Naturally, the city lord's residence he lived in maintained the same style.
The pig demon race was also known for being lazy and filthy, but compared to the Chaos Demons, it was still within the normal range.
Although Zhu Gangbin respected Tu Li, he did not dare to agree with his taste. After entering this place, the flying dust made his throat dry and he wanted to vomit.
After following Gao Zhengyang for a period of time, Zhu Gangbin found that he had become picky. There was no use thinking about such things in a life and death situation.
Sensing Tu Li's powerful aura approaching, Zhu Gangbin hurriedly gathered his thoughts and focused.
Whether or not he could survive depended on whether or not he could convince Tu Li.
After entering a wide and dark hall, Zhu Gangbin immediately saw Tu Li.
There was a large pile of sand in the center of the hall, and Tu Li was lying on his back in the sand. Most of his body was covered by the yellow sand. His exposed head was yellow and loose, and his face was covered in dozens of deep wrinkles. Two soft, fleshy antennae grew from his bald head.
Although they looked like human faces, they reminded people of caterpillars.
Tu Li's appearance was somewhat comical, but his golden eyes were layered, as if there were dozens of pupils. It also seemed like dozens of pupils were pieced together to form one eye.
Zhu Gangbin had already thought of an excuse, but when he met Tu Li's gaze, he felt as if he had been seen through. He did not dare to say the words that were at the tip of his tongue. He could only stand there with his head lowered, waiting obediently.
Having been by Gao Zhengyang's side for a long time, Zhu Gangbin was already familiar with this posture. It was especially natural.
"You are Zhu Gangbin?" Tu Li sized him up and asked slowly.
Tu Li's voice sounded like it was coming from his stomach, muffled and unclear. When it reached the pig demon's ears, it caused his entire body to go numb. His two rows of teeth could not help but chatter.
Zhu Gangbin was not that cowardly, but Tu Li's voice carried a strange resonance that caused his bones to go numb. He could not control his body's reactions at all.
"Yes …" Zhu Gangbin suppressed his discomfort and replied in a trembling voice.
"As a demon, why are you mingling with humans?" Tu Li's strange golden eyes sized up the pig demon as he asked unhurriedly.
"Lord Tu Li, I was forced by Shura Of Gojoseon to follow him."
Zhu Gangbin hurriedly explained, "Shura Of Gojoseon came in through the Heaven Piercing Cave. He killed countless demons along the way. I don't know why, but he did not kill me. In order to investigate the situation, I endured the humiliation and followed him all this time. "
"Hehe, you've put in a lot of effort …" Tu Li laughed sinisterly, his tone filled with mockery. "Then what did you find out? Tell me …"
Zhu Gangbin knelt on the ground and pleaded with a pained expression, "Lord Tu Li, I know I've done many wrong things. But I hope that you will forgive me this time on account of my efforts, and give me a chance to turn over a new leaf and redeem myself. "
Tu Li's gaze turned cold, "This is not the place for you to bargain." His powerful martial soul pierced Zhu Gangbin's divine palace through his gaze.
The huge difference in rank made Zhu Gangbin unable to resist at all. His rank seven martial soul was suppressed in an instant.
The aura of a rank nine powerhouse was real, powerful, and irresistible.
Zhu Gangbin was so frightened that he wet his pants and bowel movements. He crawled on the ground, unable to even speak.
"Lord Tu Li, why don't you give him a chance?" A rough voice came from the side, causing Zhu Gangbin to shiver.
This voice was too familiar. It belonged to his immediate superior, Giant Pig.
Zhu Gangbin forced himself to turn his head. Indeed, Giant Pig's mountainous body was sitting on a thick wooden stump.
Sitting next to Giant Pig was a slim figure covered in scales. Zhu Gangbin didn't recognize him, but he could guess who he was: the leader of the Henggong Fish Demon Clan, Yu Feihong.
In the innermost corner was a tall and muscular Ox Demon. He wore black heavy armor and had a huge double-edged battle-axe by his side.
As expected, the leaders of the four demon clans were all in Black River City.
Zhu Gangbin immediately heaved a sigh of relief. With Giant Pig here, he could live as long as he had a plausible excuse.
Yu Feihong also spoke up, "Lord Tu Li, Zhu Gangbin has been with that human the longest. He must know him well. Let's listen to what he has to say."
The Ox Demon didn't say anything, but he nodded slightly. He clearly agreed with Yu Feihong's words.
Tu Li didn't really want to kill Zhu Gangbin. He just wanted to scare him into submission first, then slowly interrogate him.
In truth, Tu Li was also very curious about Gao Zhengyang. He really couldn't understand what was going on in that human's head. He knew that Black River City was full of experts, but he still came here to die. Even among the demons, there weren't many lunatics like him.
"I'll give you some face. But if you keep spouting nonsense, no one will be able to save you, "Tu Li said coldly.
"Yes, yes, I wouldn't dare to speak carelessly." Zhu Gangbin didn't dare to act smart anymore. He explained everything about Gao Zhengyang in detail.
In truth, Zhu Gangbin didn't know anything about Gao Zhengyang. He only knew that he was a true human who was especially bloodthirsty and cruel.
After hearing Zhu Gangbin's story, the demon leaders were somewhat dissatisfied. This information was more or less what they knew. It was as good as not saying anything at all.
"What did that human want by letting you in?" Tu Li asked impatiently.
Zhu Gangbin hurriedly said, "He wanted me to write a letter of challenge …"
"What letter of challenge?" Giant Pig was also unhappy. He strode over and said, "Where's the letter of challenge? Take it out."
Zhu Gangbin crawled up and took off his armor, revealing his back. "He wrote it on my back."
Giant Pig looked at the bloody words on Zhu Gangbin's back and gritted his teeth in anger. If Zhu Gangbin wasn't his subordinate, he really wanted to slap him to death.
"How arrogant! I can't tolerate this!"
Tu Li was also curious. He had Zhu Gangbin turn around.
"You die if you fight, you die if you surrender. Are you going to fight or surrender?"
He didn't know anything at all. He only knew that he was a true human who was especially bloodthirsty and cruel.
