In an instant, the atmosphere was tense.
The Nascent Soul Breaking Crossbow was made by Lu Daochen himself. Each arrow was powerful enough to kill an early-stage Nascent Soul Realm beast.
Dozens of arrows were fired at the same time. Even the Clear Cloud Demon General was in danger of being injured.
However, Jing Yun only sneered in the face of the ballistae. He was certain that Lu Daochen wouldn't dare to shoot because there were two Higher Realm Demon Generals here. One of them was named Jin Qun. He had awakened a drop of Golden Mastiff's blood and was already an ordinary member of the Golden Mastiff Spirit Clan!
The other person was named Carp Companion. He had awakened one and a half drops of Thunder Dragon blood and was already an ordinary member of the Primordial Thunder Dragon race!
The death of either of them would infuriate the True Spirit Clan of the Sky Demon Realm.
Once Lu Daochen made a move and injured the two generals, he would never be able to ascend to the Heaven Demon Domain in this lifetime.
Jing Yun glanced at Ning Fan with a cold snort in his heart. His eyes continued to shift and eventually landed on the green-robed demon concubine.
Even the arrogant Jing Yun immediately showed a hint of respect in his eyes as he cupped his fists and bowed.
"I, Jing Yun, greet the Demon Concubine!"
"Yes." The Yao Concubine only nodded her head lightly. Not everyone could make her smile.
Jing Yun did not know about the Demon Concubine, but the Cleansing Flame Tribe's Demon Sealer told her about her identity.
This woman was not the Misty Rain Pavilion's top courtesan.
This woman was the concubine of the Spirit King of the Sky Demon Realm's Spirit King Palace!
The Misty Drizzle Tower might be unfamiliar with the Ancient Monster Clan, but the Spirit King Palace was a colossus.
Jing Yun was told by the Demon Sealer that this demon concubine had two reasons for staying in the Luo Yun Prefecture.
Firstly, he was interested in Lu Daochen's talents and the Spirit Augmentation Technique. He wanted to represent the Spirit King Palace to grant him the right to ascend.
Secondly, for the sake of the Star of the Celestial Thearch, he had to complete the World Map and open the World Passage of the Third Realm to find this star. The Demon Concubine could be considered to have made a great contribution.
Let's not talk about the second objective for now.
With the first goal in mind, Lu Daochen only needed to rely on the Spirit King Palace and break through to the Void Fragmentation Realm with the help of the Demon Concubine. Then, ascending to the Heavenly Demon World was almost certain!
With Lu Daochen's shrewdness, there was no way he would harm the demon generals of the Upper Realm and make enemies for himself in the Upper Realm.
Jing Yun was certain and convinced! Lu Daochen did not dare to make a move!
As expected, the black-faced Lu Zhan was filled with killing intent. He couldn't wait to have a Feast at Hongmen and kill the three generals of the Purifying Flame Tribe.
However, Lu Daochen coughed and waved his hand, ordering the crossbowmen to retreat.
"Back off! Do not be rude to the demon generals of the Upper Realm! "
"Yes!" The black armored crossbowmen retreated one by one.
Lu Zhan was unwilling to accept this. He was in his own territory, but he had to be bullied by others. What the hell was this!
He glared angrily at Lu Daochen, expressing his displeasure at Lu Daochen's weakness.
"Lu Zhan, sit down!"
"Yes …" Lu Zhan gritted his teeth and sat down unwillingly.
Most of the other influential figures in the Luo Yun Prefecture heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately …
This matter was not blown out of proportion, and it did not escalate to the point of using force. The demon generals of the Higher Domain were not harmed.
That way, Luo Yun would not get into huge trouble.
Lu Daochen slowly rose to his feet. He reached into his pocket with his crutch and took out a dark-red beast skin map.
The moment it appeared, Jing Yun, Jin Qun, and Li Ban's eyes burned with desire.
Even Ning Fan's eyes lit up.
It was just a beast skin map which was only the size of a palm. However, there was an extremely ferocious demonic aura coming from this incomplete map, causing everyone present to shudder at the same time except for Ning Fan and Yao Fei.
"The Realm Map! Lu Daochen, quickly give it to me! "Jing Yun took a step forward and tried to snatch it.
However, Lu Daochen's eyes shone with a cloudy light. Two snow-white demon stars appeared in his left eye!
The moment the demon stars appeared, Jing Yun's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly retreated with cold sweat on his forehead.
"Bestowment Star!"
The second demon star was bestowed by the Demon Marshal. It contained a great ability that could instantly kill an Early Divine Transformation Realm expert!
"Who do you think you are?! How dare you call my name?! The Realm Passage is in my hands. You won't be able to take it away! "
Lu Daochen fiercely slammed his crutch on the ground. Jing Yun took three steps back. He coughed out a mouthful of blood every time he took a step back. His eyes were filled with fear!
So this is the Luo Yun Demon Marshal who is known for his benevolence …
This person had not shown his might for a long time, causing countless people to look down on him. However, his strength was probably enough to fight a Late Divine Transformation Realm expert without a Bestowment Star!
Under the might of the star, even Jin Qun and Li Ban who were demon generals of the Upper World who were used to seeing the second demon star were filled with astonishment.
Jing Yun swallowed his saliva. If it wasn't because he had the backing of a demon general of the Upper World, Lu Daochen would have already taken his head!
"General Yun, please forgive me for my rudeness!" Jing Yun gritted his teeth and cupped his fists to apologize.
"Forgive? Humph … Tell Lu Jiefen to quickly give up his dream of breaking through to the Demon Marshal Realm! I will never give him the Realm Passage! He won't be able to get the Star of the Heavenly Emperor either! "
Lu Daochen withdrew his aura force and put the Realm Map back into his robe. He gave Ning Fan a deep look. Then, he returned to his seat like a senile old man.
His eyes were filled with approval.
He was praising Ning Fan for being able to remain as calm as a mountain after his Bestowment Star was revealed.
He thought to himself, This young man is indeed extraordinary. As a human, he is not afraid of the demon race. He even dares to kill the demon generals of the Upper World without any worries. Such a person is really the best partner for me to work with …
Ning Fan remained silent.
The Realm Passage was not hidden anywhere in the province. Instead, it was on Lu Daochen's body. In that case, it would be impossible for me to steal it. Unless I defeat Lu Daochen, I might not be able to snatch the Realm Passage.
Lu Daochen was very strong. Ning Fan might not be able to defeat him even if he uses all his trump cards.
What made Ning Fan hesitate the most was the attitudes of different tribes towards the Realm Passage and the Demon Marshal Realm …
According to common sense, the demon generals of the Second World should work together to protect the Demon Marshal Realm.
However, the nine divisions of the Lu Clan were obviously on their own. Some of them even fought and killed each other. They were also disrespectful towards Demon Marshal Lu Wu. Demon General Jing Yun dared to address Lu Wu as the Evil Marshal!
The Evil Marshal Realm was exiled by the Heavenly Demon World forever … The Star of the Heavenly Emperor …
It seems like the Realm Passage of the Third World is not as simple as I thought. The layout and secrecy of the Land of Slumber is incomparable to the other places.
"Why does Lu Daochen want to work with me …? What is his attitude towards the Demon Marshal Realm …? He knows that I want the Realm Passage and he probably knows that I am not Lu Bei or even a member of the demon race. However, he is still willing to work with me. Could it be that he wants to work with me to snatch the Realm Passage and kill the Demon Marshal Realm?"
"If it's such a simple matter, it's not that I can't work with him. However, I have a feeling that this matter is not that simple …"
I can't figure it out …
While Ning Fan was pondering, Lu Wan 'er exclaimed softly. It was because after Lu Daochen sat down, the green-robed demon concubine stood up.
The hem of her green muslin dress brushed past Ning Fan's face unintentionally, leaving behind an enchanting and delicate fragrance.
"Sister Demon Concubine, what are you doing …?"
Lu Wan 'er stood up and wanted to stop the demon concubine.
What does a woman like Sister Demon Concubine want to do when the Pure Fire Tribe and the Luo Yun Tribe are fighting against each other? Meddle in this matter? Isn't that very dangerous …?
Lu Wan 'er wanted to stop the demon concubine but Ning Fan held her wrist. She could not help but laugh.
"Silly girl. This Sister Demon Concubine of yours is not a mortal … In the Second World, no one dares to touch her … I'm afraid that her identity is not the Misty Rain Tower Master at all … She is a Late Divine Transformation Realm demon cultivator!"
"Late Divine Transformation Realm!" Lu Wan 'er was stunned. Could it be that the female demon of Feng Chen whom she regarded as her sister was actually a peak figure in the Second World?
As soon as Ning Fan's voice fell, the demon concubine turned around and smiled apologetically at Lu Wan 'er. Then, she unleashed her aura force that was even stronger than Lu Daochen's.
"I'm sorry. Because I had no choice but to hide it from you, I did not tell you my true identity … I'm the Demon Concubine of the Spirit King Palace in the Awakening Realm of the Heavenly Demon World … I don't have a surname. My name is Wu Yan. From today onwards, you can call me Sister Yan or Demon Concubine …"
"Sister Demon Concubine …" Lu Wan 'er had too many questions she wanted to ask. However, Ning Fan gently pressed his lips against hers.
"If there's a chance to talk in the future, let's see what your Sister Demon Concubine wants to do first …"
Ning Fan's eyes flashed. The question in his mind was solved.
The Misty Rain Tower is indeed a fictitious force … This woman is actually the concubine of the Spirit King of the Heavenly Demon World!
The Spirit King … The monarch of the demon race that all the members of the True Spirit Clan worship! The ruler of the Awakening Realm of the Heavenly Demon World!
Of course, no one would dare to touch his woman!
Moreover, with this woman protecting Lu Wan 'er, she would be very safe even if she goes to the Heavenly Demon World …
As the green-robed demon concubine revealed her identity, the expressions of many Late Nascent Soul Realm and Peak Nascent Soul Realm demons changed drastically.
"The master of the Misty Rain Tower is actually the Demon Concubine of the Spirit King! Previously, we went to the Misty Rain Tower and took advantage of this woman. Even if we didn't succeed, it's still a serious crime! "
"It's over. I even said that I will spend one million immortal jade to have a night with this woman … It's a capital crime. A capital crime!"
The Demon Concubine did not say much to these people. She just let out a faint sigh as if they were all mediocre people.
She reached her hand into her sleeve and took out a blue fire token. As soon as the token appeared, the expressions of the demons changed drastically.
The Spirit King Token!
"All of you are Demon Generals of the Lu Clan. Even though Lu Wu is a traitor, all of you still have to obey my orders … Jing Yun! I order you to leave immediately and not cause any trouble in the Luo Yun Clan! "
It was obvious that the Demon Concubine wanted to support Lu Daochen.
Jing Yun had the support of the Demon Generals of the Upper World.
Lu Daochen, on the other hand, had the support of the Spirit King and the Demon Concubine.
Jing Yun's expression was filled with unwillingness. He cupped his fists at the Demon Concubine. "My lady! Didn't you come to this place of slumber for the Heavenly Emperor's Star?! In the last days, Lord Fire General had said that if the World Passage is opened, I only want Demon Marshal Lu Wu's demon blood and corpse. The Heavenly Emperor's Star will belong to you. If you hand it over to the Spirit King, it will certainly be a great merit and it can raise your status in the Spirit King Palace … "
"What?!"
Li Ban and Jin Qun were furious.
This Fire General Lu Jiefen was really audacious. He knew that they and the other Demon Generals of the Sky Demon World were here for the Heavenly Emperor's Star but he still dared to give the Emperor's Star to the people of the Spirit King Palace …
It was true that the Spirit King Palace was respected by all the races in the Demon Spirit Land of the Sky Demon World. However, the other True Spirit Realm forces might have their own intentions …
Li Ban and the others represented the Immemorial Thunder Dragon Clan and several other True Spirit Clans.
Demon Concubine Wu Yan represented the Spirit King Palace.
Everyone's target was the Heavenly Emperor's Star!
As expected, the Demon Concubine became silent after hearing what Lu Daochen said.
The World Passage would be opened eventually. Lu Wu would not sleep forever …
"Demon Concubine, you don't have to worry. The World Passage will be opened eventually …"
Lu Daochen sighed deeply and stood up again. He looked at Jing Yun.
"I, Lu Daochen, am one of Commander Lu's nine generals. No matter why Commander Lu betrayed the demon race in the past, I, Lu Daochen, am loyal to the Demon Commander. My heart will never change … The path to open up the world will eventually have to be opened. However, it should not be opened by the Cleansing Flame Tribe.
"Jing Yun, according to the teachings of the Demon Ancestor, everything should be decided by strength! No matter what you say, if you want my World Map, show me your strength!
"I will send three generals to fight against the three of you. If you win, the World Map will belong to you. If I, Luo Yun Tribe, win, I will take the World Map from your Pure Fire Tribe. Do you dare to accept this bet? Are you qualified to make the decision?
"This battle requires a life-and-death agreement. Even if you die here, you will not be held responsible. In other words, even the Demon Generals of the Upper Domain might die … Do you have the qualifications to accept this bet?!
"If you don't, then get out of the Luo Yun Tribe!"
Jing Yun, Jin Qun, and Li Ban all became silent after hearing Lu Daochen's words.
Jing Yun did not dare to accept it rashly. He could not make the decision for the World Map.
Jin Qun and Li Ban did not dare to accept it rashly because this was a life-and-death agreement. Even if the Demon Race of the Upper Domain died here, no one would be held responsible.
They had three Early Divine Transformation Realm experts on their side while the other side had two Early Divine Transformation Realm experts, Lu Qing and Lu Zhan. In addition, there was Lu Daochen who was comparable to a Late Divine Transformation Realm expert.
The outcome of the battle was obvious!
The expressions of the three generals darkened. They knew that they would not be able to get the World Map no matter whether they snatch it or threaten it.
Jing Yun shifted his gaze to Ning Fan and thought to himself. I can only rely on this spy of Lu Bei to steal the World Map. However, I don't know if he will be loyal to the Pure Fire Tribe and complete the mission …
Just as the three generals were about to leave, red clouds covered the sky outside the Allheaven Palace.
Among the red clouds, the shadow of a blood-red dragon flashed and turned into a middle-aged man in red armor. He looked down at the Allheaven Palace from above.
"Lu Daochen, Jing Yun doesn't have the qualifications to accept this bet but I do! Alright! I'll make an agreement with you. Let's bet on the World Map! However, there's no need for the juniors to get involved. We'll decide the outcome of this battle … "
As soon as his voice resounded, a Late Divine Transformation Realm aura descended upon the entire province, shocking everyone.
The people of the Allheaven Palace walked out one after another. As soon as they saw the person who spoke, their faces were filled with shock.
The person who came was actually the Titled Demon General of the Pure Fire Tribe, Fire General Lu Jiefen!
Lu Daochen did not take Lu Jiefen's provocation seriously and replied indifferently.
"I haven't reached the Late Divine Transformation Realm and I'm no match for you … I've already said that this bet is based on the ancient teachings of the Demon Ancestor. There will be three Demon Generals from your side and they must be Early Divine Transformation Realm and below. My side will also send three people. They are the fourth general, Lu Qing, the sixth general, Lu Zhan and the eighth general, Lu Bei. All three of them have yet to reach the Late Divine Transformation Realm … Only then will it be fair. Lu Jiefen, do you dare to bet with me?!"
In just a few words, Lu Daochen seemed to have turned the fight for the World Map into a bet between the three generals.
It was as if everything was within his expectations. Summoning the two Divine Transformation Realm experts and summoning Ning Fan seemed to be because of today's bet.
"Lu Qing, Lu Zhan, Lu Bei …" Lu Jiefen's eyes flashed and his mind raced.
The first two were nothing to worry about. As for the third person … Lu Jiefen already knew that this person had killed three Divine Transformation Realm experts on his own even though he had yet to reach the Divine Transformation Realm.
Right now, other than himself, there were only the three Jing Yun generals in the Luo Yun Province. Among the three of them, Jing Yun should not be a match for Lu Bei. If Jin Qun and Lu Bei fight, it would be difficult to determine the winner. As for Li Ban … Ning Fan could not defeat this person!
As soon as he made up his mind, Lu Jiefen stepped into the sky and laughed.
"Alright! I will accept this bet. If I can obtain your Luo Yun Realm Map so easily, we can avoid a battle between our two troops. It couldn't be better … Li Ban, Jin Qun and Jing Yun, step forward! The three of you will go to the fire platform and fight the three generals of the Luo Yun Province! "
Lu Jiefen made a grabbing motion with his large hand. In the vast sky, a sea of fire that was ten thousand li * (500m per li) appeared. The sea of fire condensed and turned into a gigantic fire platform with a circumference of one thousand li * (500m per li).
"Humph!" Jin Qun and Li Ban's faces darkened. This Lu Jiefen is really audacious. Is he ordering the two demon generals of the Upper World as his subordinates?!
However, when they thought that they would be able to obtain the World Map if they win this bet, the two generals suppressed their anger and did not say anything else. In a flash, they went to the fire platform that was floating in the sky.
Jing Yun's expression was solemn. Of course, he did not dare to disobey the orders of the Demon Sealer. He immediately flew to the fire platform.
In the blink of an eye, the three generals were ready for the battle.
Previously, the three generals did not dare to accept the challenge because they were afraid that Lu Daochen would intervene. Now that they knew that Lu Daochen would not intervene and only fight against two demon generals and a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, their chances of winning were at least ninety percent. There was no need for them to worry about it.
Among the three generals of the Luo Yun Province, the strongest one was undoubtedly Lu Bei who had killed three Deities on his own.
However, among the three generals, Jin Qun and Li Ban were eager to give it a try. They were confident that they could kill this person.
This was the pride of the demon generals of the Upper World!
At this moment, the entire Luo Yun Province was in an uproar!
Countless guests even put down their banquets and left their seats to watch the grand event of the bet.
The Demon Ancestor's teachings and the battle between the three generals would occasionally happen among the young masters of the province. However, the strongest among the participants was only at the Nascent Soul Realm. There had never been a battle between Deity Transformation Realm cultivators.
The life and death contract was decided by the heavens … Perhaps, a Deity Transformation Realm cultivator would be killed on the fire platform today … This was a major event!
Lu Daochen's eyes were filled with battle intent. He leaned on his walking stick and said loudly.
"Generals of the Luo Yun Province, do not show any weakness! Lu Qing and Lu Zhan, step forward! Lu Bei, step forward! "
"Yes!" Lu Qing and Lu Zhan had long since disliked the Cleansing Flame Tribe and wanted to fight.
Ning Fan was the only one who sneered and said something shocking.
"I won't fight!"
Ridiculous! Lu Daochen did not give me any benefits and asked me to be his fighter. Why?
"If I win this battle, the map of the Pure Flame World will belong to you!"
Lu Daochen's words were even more shocking.
Everyone thought that Lu Daochen's purpose of this bet was to defeat the Pure Flame Tribe and take their map for himself.
However, he promised in front of everyone that if he wins the battle, he would give Ning Fan the map of the world that he won from the bet.
If that's the case, why did Lu Daochen do all this?
Ning Fan's eyes flashed. He still could not see through Lu Daochen's intention.
Ning Fan could see through Lu Jiefen's intention. Lu Jiefen was greedy for the Demon Marshal's blood just like him.
Ning Fan could also see through the purpose of the Demon Concubine and Li Ban. They were all after the Star of the Heavenly Emperor.
But why did Lu Daochen do all this …?
Ning Fan could not see through it. However, since there was a chance to obtain the map, it was fine even if it was just one-ninth.
Besides, Ning Fan guessed that after he obtains the map of the Pure Flame Tribe, Lu Daochen would propose to cooperate with him. At that time, he would probably tell Ning Fan his true intention.
If I win this battle, I can get the map. Of course, I can also kill him …
"Li Ban!"
Ning Fan's killing intent had already been triggered. Without saying anything else, he flew to the fire platform with Lu Qing and Lu Zhan.
His eyes swept across Jing Yun, Jin Qun and Li Ban without the slightest fear.
"I will go first in the first battle! Jing Yun, you little brat, fight me! "
Lu Zhan whose face was as black as charcoal stepped forward with his halberd.
He had long been displeased with Jing Yun.
"Lu Zhan, you are not my match. Stand down!" Jing Yun stood with his hands clasped behind his back. His aura force was rising steadily.
"Bullsh * t!" Lu Zhan was so angry that his face turned even darker. (To be continued.)
