Before Shen Luo could stabilize himself, he heard a voice coming from above. He immediately activated the yellow handkerchief, shrank his body, and escaped to the bottom of the stone steps.
At the same time, he activated the Oceanic Dominion Pearl to cover up his aura fluctuations. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
After a while, a series of heavy and messy footsteps came from the ground. Two demons walked down from above, one in front and one behind.
"Have you heard? I heard that the Black Bone King didn't get any benefits this time. He even had half of his body broken by the Bull Demon King. Tsk tsk, what a double loss." One of the demons said, seemingly taking pleasure in the misfortune of the Black Bone King.
"You're really not afraid of death. How dare you criticize the Black Bone King behind his back? Aren't you afraid that he'll break your bones?" The other demon was more cautious and reminded.
"What's there to be afraid of … You won't tell on me. Besides, the Black Bone King isn't in this Black Wolf Mountain now. Maybe he's being scolded in front of the Venerable! "The demon in front said with a fearless attitude.
"That's true. They've all moved away, but we're the only ones left here. Not only are we suffering here, but we also have to suffer from the Black Cave. Sigh …" The other demon sighed.
"Moved away?" Shen Luo heard this and was suspicious.
"The Black Bone Great King has always been harsh to us demons, and this Black Cave under his command is even worse. Apart from a few of us with higher cultivation bases, we can still live a good life. Small fries like you and me are just ants beside his feet."
"Sigh, you're right. We joined the Demons just to live in this world. Now we're still in a precarious situation. We're constantly worried that they'll use us as cannon fodder. We're also worried that we'll be killed by these Demons if we're not careful. It's really frustrating. We might as well go back and join other great demons." The other demon sighed and said with melancholy.
"It's very difficult to go back now. Those Great Demons are either surrendering or hiding. Who am I supposed to go to? We'll be taken down by the Demons sooner or later. If even a Yao King like the Bull Demon is unwilling to step forward, who else can protect us? "The first Yao said with a wry smile.
With that said, the two fiendish demons fell silent. After a moment, they spoke in unison.
"If only the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal was still here …"
Hearing the heavy footsteps of the two little demons getting further and further away, Shen Luo's figure slowly emerged from the stone steps and followed them inside.
The stone steps meandered all the way down. Only after a long distance did they see a ray of light.
Shen Luo could still vaguely hear the intermittent words of the two little demons in front of him. Just as he was hesitating whether to take out the Seven Treasures Exquisite Lamp to investigate, he suddenly heard an angry shout from the front, "Two blind beasts, do you want to die?"
Then, the two little demons began to beg for mercy in a low voice.
"I asked you to take a drink and dawdle. Do you want to die?" Another angry shout sounded.
Shen Luo followed carefully. At the end of the stone steps, he saw a spacious underground hall. There were bonfires lit all around and it looked very bright.
In the middle of the hall stood a man with a black body and a face like that of an evil spirit. He was baring his fangs and scolding the two little Demons who were kneeling in front of him.
One of them had curved horns on his head and a goatee under his chin. He was a goat demon. The other one had wood grains on his face and a grayish-brown skin. He looked like a tree spirit.
"Lord Black Cave, please spare us, please spare us. We didn't mean to dawdle. We were afraid of breaking your drink, so we didn't dare to walk too fast. Please don't be angry, please forgive us …" The two of them kowtowed to the great demon like they were pounding garlic. They were obviously extremely afraid.
Even so, the man Demon was still angry. He raised a hand and a cloud of black mist condensed in his palm. He stretched it toward the goat demon.
Seeing this, the goat demon was scared out of his wits. He said in a trembling voice, "Lord Black Cave, please spare us …"
"What are you shouting for? If you absorb my Demon Qi, you may have a chance to be demonized. In the future, you won't have to do these lowly chores anymore." The man named "Black Cave" sneered and said with some disdain.
"Lord Black Cave, we all know that not everyone can be demonized. If the Demon Qi is not pure, or if the physique is too weak, you won't be able to survive the demonization process and will die. Please spare me …" The goat demon almost cried and begged.
The wood spirit could only lie on the ground and tremble. He didn't dare to say a word.
What the goat demon didn't expect was that his words completely angered Black Cave.
"Are you implying that my Demonic Qi is not pure enough?" Hei Ku sneered and asked.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. I'm saying that my physique is weak and can't bear …" The goat demon knew that he had said something wrong and hurriedly explained.
Before he could finish his words, Black Cave was already tired of his noisy words. He grabbed the Demon Qi in his hand and directly stretched out his palm toward the goat demon's head.
"Stop." At this moment, a stern voice was heard.
Black Cave was stunned when he heard this. When he looked up, he saw a figure walking down the stairs. The expression on his face suddenly changed into a flattering expression. He trotted up to greet the figure.
"Your Majesty!" Hei Ku called out respectfully as he ran towards the newcomer.
In front of him stood a black skeleton. There were many cracks on its bones and the aura on its body was very unstable. It was the leader of the Demons, Black Bone King, who had attacked Jilei Mountain earlier.
"At this moment, shouldn't you be at Mount Heimeng? Why are you here?" Black Cave saw that the other party didn't speak. He was a little puzzled and asked carefully.
Of course, the person in front of him was not the real Hei Gu. Instead, he was transformed by Shen Luo's Fundamental Life Fox Fur. Shen Luo was quite familiar with Hei Gu's aura and appearance due to their previous encounters. Therefore, he transformed into his appearance.
"Do I need you to tell me where to go? You don't do anything serious all day long. You only care about these small fries. What kind of future do you have? "Shen Luo snorted coldly and said.
"Your Majesty is right. It's all my fault." Black Cave immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
When the two little demons heard Black Bone's voice, they were so scared that they didn't dare to move at all. They didn't even dare to gloat in their hearts.
"You two evil creatures, hurry up and get out of here. Are you an eyesore?" Shen Luo scolded in a low voice.
When the two little demons heard this, they felt as if they had been pardoned. They actually rolled their bodies and went to the stone steps.
Shen Luo sighed in his heart. He looked at Black Cave and said, "How long has it been? Haven't the things here been settled yet?"
When Black Cave heard this, his heart trembled. He said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, this place has been cleaned up.
It's really difficult to clean it up. For the past two days, I didn't dare to slack off. It's just that it will take some time to finish it immediately. "
