The twelve demon emperors represented the interests of different demon clans. It was inevitable that they would scheme against each other in public and in secret.
In order to coordinate their interests, the twelve demon emperors would also elect a 'Dark Lady of Nine Heavens', just like how the twelve ancient demon clans created the Nuwa Clan together.
Nominally, the Dark Lady of Nine Heavens boasted the ability to communicate with the thirteen ancient demon clans. She was the spokesperson of the Pantheon of Demons. All the important decisions had to be signed by the Dark Lady of Nine Heavens.
Her position was roughly equivalent to that of the Speaker of the Xing Yao Federation.
However, faced with the twelve strong, powerful demon emperors, the Dark Lady of Nine Heavens was nothing more than a puppet and a mouthpiece. Her real power was incomparable to that of the Speaker of the Xing Yao Federation.
The Pantheon of Demons had established branches in all the demon kingdoms and demon cities. After the royal family and the nobles of the demon race gave birth to a female descendant, they would often select the smartest and strongest descendant and send them to the Pantheon of Demons. After a series of harsh and cruel training, they would become saintesses who were loyal to the Pantheon of Demons.
The Dark Lady of Nine Heavens of every generation would be a saintess.
Therefore, in the system of the demon race, saintesses who could mobilize the strength of the Pantheon of Demons and were deeply connected to many demon kingdoms were very special. They were the sharpest claws and teeth of the Pantheon of Demons. Even the leaders of some of the demon cities and the masters of demon caves did not dare mess with a saintess of the lowest level.
Right now, a saintess of the Pantheon of Demons and the first princess of the Gold Crow Kingdom was hunting a bunch of remnants of the Blade of Chaos in such a remote, desolate place?
Was Lei Qi's remnants really carrying something that could change the future of the Blood Demon Sector?
Seeing that his younger brother was still suspicious, Lei Qi emphasized and said sincerely, "Ah Chuang, you must trust me. Do not be fooled by Jin Xinyue's appearance. The dreadfulness of this demoness is beyond your imagination!
"Her father, Jin Tuyi, is one of the twelve demon emperors of the Pantheon of Demons. One of the strongest demon emperors, known as the fastest demon emperor in the Blood Demon Sector! "
"After the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Dawn, Jin Tuyi became the new commander of the Coalition Army of Demons. He is actively planning a new round of attacks on the Tian Yuan Realm!"
"In the meantime. He also commanded the suppression of the 'Riot of Bloody Blade' in person. Countless brothers of the Blade of Chaos were killed by the butcher! "
"This guy whose hands are stained with blood is simply not a demon, but an out-and-out demon king!"
"Jin Xinyue is terrifying. She's even better than her father, and her appearance is even more deceptive. Don't believe her, she's definitely a ruthless and merciless demoness! "
The golden light gradually rose into the sky and was about to descend upon Withered Leaf Village.
After Lei Qi finished speaking, he took a deep look at his younger brother before turning around and entering the depths of the forest.
For a moment, Lei Chuang was also at a loss. After a moment of hesitation, he turned around and ran toward the village.
Li Yao arrived at the treehouse one step ahead of him. Hiding in the cage of vines, he concealed all his aura and pretended to be a common chaotic-blood demon.
However, he was not confident that he would be able to bluff his way through.
Right now, he had basically figured out what had happened.
The villagers of Withered Leaf Village asked him to pretend to be Lei Qi in order to fool the conscription officer. They were probably afraid that the conscription officer would not allow the demons in the village to join the army after learning that someone in the village had joined the Blade of Chaos, which might lead to even more dreadful consequences.
The conscription officer would certainly not come to such a remote place. He assumed that they were all bottom-level officers in the demon army. Maybe there were only one or two bronze-blood demons. The odds of him getting through were quite high.
However, it was one thing to fool a bottom-level conscription officer. It was another thing to fool a saintess of the Pantheon of Demons and a princess of the Gold Crow Kingdom.
Faced with such a dilemma, Li Yao felt a headache coming on.
He had thought of running away, too. However, the Feather Clan was one of the fastest demons in the sky. If he did not use the Crystal Suit and the Black Wing Sword, he might not be able to get away.
If he used the Crystal Suit and the Black Wing Sword, he would certainly leave traces of spiritual waves, which would make it even harder for him to get rid of the pursuers.
Let's observe Jin Xinyue's capability first. According to Lei Qi, she is only a demon king, which equates to the Core Formation Stage of Cultivators. Even if she has a few more demon kings with her, they will not be able to stop me.
"However, it's extremely difficult to kill all of them without leaving any traces behind."
Years ago, Wang Ji of the Kingdom of Lion Butchers carried a lot of bizarre weapons and magical equipment with him. He was very tricky to deal with.
Now that Jin Xinyue has become a saintess of the Pantheon of Demons and is known as the 'First Princess', her position in the Gold Crow Kingdom must be very high. Chances are that even the king of the Gold Crow Kingdom has to be careful of her!
"She only has more magical treasures than Wang Ji!"
"If this demoness discovers my existence and wants to escape, I may not be able to stop her."
Deep inside Li Yao's brain, the mental devil was expanding in hideous laughter. It summoned a lot of computational ability and drafted a lot of sordid, sordid, and shameless battle plans.
At this time, there was a commotion outside, and a long sound of a horn was heard.
It was the signal to summon all the villagers for an emergency meeting.
Very soon, hundreds of villagers were gathered at the center of the village, where the petals of the Ghost Teeth Tree were dried.
The petals of the Ghost Teeth Tree were extremely tensile. After being dried for three days, they could be torn into pieces and weaved into a light, breathable armor, which was the best choice for hunting in the forest.
The sky of the Dry Leaf Village was splendid. Dozens of golden eagles were hovering at a low altitude. The wings of each eagle were dozens of meters long when they were unfolded, with the brilliance of metal and jade. When they swept the wings, thousands of invisible turbulences seemed to be appearing in the air and merging with each other, slowly falling down like a boundless net.
Suppressed by the aura of the golden eagles, not only were all the villagers trembling in fear, even the demon beasts reared by the villagers were lying on the ground obediently, not having the courage to make a sound for the rest of their lives.
Just now, one of the Moonshadow Wolves carelessly let out a cry, but in the blink of an eye, it became the golden roc's food. At this moment, the golden roc's mouth was emitting "crack crack crack" sounds.
Below the golden eagles, at the center of the empty ground, dozens of high-level demons in long robes of golden feathers were standing.
Li Yao observed them secretly in the middle of the villagers. The high-level demons were all handsome and graceful. Their facial organs and limbs were impeccable. They seemed to be surrounded by glittering halos, making it hard for him to keep his eyes open.
Although they carried the features of the demon race, such as broad wings, sharp claws, and teeth, and some of the pupils of some of the demons were even vertical lines, they did not give off the feeling of 'abnormality' or 'disgust' at all. Instead, they gave off the feeling that they were perfectly natural and should be.
Li Yao secretly compared the high-level demons with the low-level demons that he had seen in the beast tide. It was hard for him to imagine that they were of the same species.
No wonder the demon race was divided into four different classes. If Li Yao were a high-level demon with a shining halo, it would have been difficult for him to admit that he was of the same species as the hideous, bizarre-shaped snakes, insects, rats, and ants.
The dozens of demons were already handsome, beautiful, and glittering enough.
However, when Li Yao moved his eyes to one of the demons at the center, he suddenly felt that the halos on all the demons around were eclipsed.
It was a short female demon who was wearing pure white soft armor. Judging from her young face alone, she looked like a girl around fifteen years old. Her eyes were so clear that one could see her soul. Her face was as frank and sincere as that of a newborn baby.
She had a pair of dark golden wings on her back, and her flawless skin was occasionally adorned with strands of dark golden feathers. It was like a flawless feather robe, outlining her curvaceous and soul-stirring figure.
The innocence and holiness of her face combined with the fullness and fierceness of her body added to the weirdest charm, making one both want to worship her as a goddess and to kneel down and ravage her brutally.
Deep inside Li Yao's brain, the mental devil blew a weird whistle.
Li Yao bit the tip of his tongue hard and forced himself to wake up. None of the saintesses of the Pantheon of Demons were easy to deal with. Lei Qi had made it clear just now. If the woman was truly Jin Xinyue, princess of the Gold Crow Kingdom, she would certainly be the trickiest opponent.
A tall, handsome demon who also had a pair of wings on his back flew close from the field of Ghost Teeth Flowers. He landed next to the female demon softly and whispered something to her.
Li Yao sensed that the female demon's glittering eyes slightly shivered.
The male demon immediately held his head high and bellowed, "Who is the village leader?"
The village leader pushed his wheelchair and squeezed into the middle of the high-level demons. His legs were shivering, and his back was soaked in sweat.
Many high-level demons stepped back quietly. They took out their handkerchiefs and covered their mouths and noses softly, as if they did not want to be too close to the lowly chaotic-blood demons or breathe the air that had been polluted by them.
The male demon took out a token from his bosom and shook it slightly. Immediately, a mysterious light shot out in all directions from the token. A golden light soared into the sky and scattered in midair. The golden light transformed into a mysterious and complicated emblem. It was a three-legged giant bird that flapped its wings and was about to take flight.
"We are the 'Gold Shadow Guardians'," the male demon declared proudly. "This princess is a saintess of the Pantheon of Demons and Princess Xinyue of the Gold Crow Kingdom!"
The villagers immediately exclaimed. Many of them had never left the Hundred Desolation Mountain in their entire life. They had never even seen a real silver-blood demon before, much less such a revered noble.
The villagers were completely at a loss and did not know what to do. Many of them even felt that their knees were weak, and they were about to kneel and kowtow to the saintess of the Pantheon of Demons.
Li Yao secretly observed Lei Chuang. The young tiger's face was flushed, and he was breathing fast. He was completely fascinated by Jin Xinyue.
Had it not been for what Lei Qi said a moment ago, which seemed to have worked, the boy might have crawled over and kissed her toes on the ground. (To be continued.)
