"The Radiant King?!"
Li Qingshan found it utterly absurd. If that crazy woman could be called the "Radiant King", then shouldn't he be calling himself the buddha? He could not help but mock her slightly.
The Green-winged Bat King gazed at the sky. The rain continued to patter down. There was not even a single star. There was no light at all. Even if it was sunny and daytime in the Demon domain, there was only a single black sun.
"Sir, I know you look down on us despicable demonfolk, but there are countless loyal and righteous demonfolk too. The cult master once said to us, "Light is in everyone's hearts. You are the light of the Demon domain! Even if we all die in battle, there will be thousands of people who will stand forward and fight against evil! "
Li Qingshan was taken aback. He had spoken from the bottom of his heart. He was completely sincere. Let alone the Demon domain, there were not many people like him even in the regular world. He patted his shoulder. "Well done. Take me to see your cult master!"
Qian Rongzhi, I'd like to see what you're up to.
"Yes, sir!" The Green-winged Bat King unfurled his cloak and took off into the air. He passed through the rainy night like a bat and flew towards the edge of the city.
The gurgling of water was deafening. The sewage from the city formed a great waterfall, pouring into a great swamp and giving off a pungent smell.
The Green-winged Bat King nodded at Li Qingshan behind him before leaping into the waterfall.
Li Qingshan followed closely behind. In that moment, a huge, black shadow rushed over. The ear-piercing shriek made the air tremble, completely drowning out the rumbling of the waterfall.
"Bats!"
As it turned out, the black shadow was countless large bats. He raised an eyebrow and was about to clean them up casually.
"Sir, please don't harm them. They're natural sentry posts. Sigh, they were demonfolk in the first place. They couldn't survive above, so they were reduced to the sewers and fed on trash. They gradually demonified. "
Perhaps it was because he had been named the Green-winged Bat King, but he developed a special feeling towards these demonified bats. However, the deterrent aura he gave off prevented the bats from attacking. They circled around in the surroundings madly.
Li Qingshan also noticed that the bodies of these bats still retained human characteristics. There were males and females, old and young, but their faces were ferocious and inhuman. But compared to this, the gaze of the Green-winged Bat King that was filled with sympathy surprised him even more.
After passing through the dense mass of bats, the scene before his eyes suddenly became clear, and a wide and deep passageway appeared before his eyes. It caused him to recall the complicated underground caves in Azure County all those years ago.
However, everything here was man-made. Huge stones were piled up seamlessly, and the dome was over a hundred feet high. If one did not consider good and evil, beauty and ugliness, this Demonic City was truly magnificent and extraordinary. It was more spectacular than any city he had ever seen.
After entering the underground passageway, the Green-Winged Bat King also relaxed a lot. As he led the way, he introduced, "My Lord, although this is the Taotie Realm, all the devil cities in the Devil Domain were built by the disciples and grand-disciples of the Devil God Jia. They are most proficient in building machinery. When we build the sewers, we'll use the earth and stone we excavate to build skyscrapers. The cult master has said that we demonfolk are actually very clever and hardworking. We've just been brainwashed and used, blinding our true selves. "
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Li Qingshan nodded, but he thought inside, Aren't your true selves demon hearts? You seem more like you've been brainwashed and used like this. Your cult master must have ulterior motives. He'll sell you out at any moment.
There must be some great scheme behind all of this!
"You said this is the Taotie Realm, which is also the territory of the Taotie Demon God. It's been nice of you not to be suppressed here."
Right now, he maintained his vigilance against all Demon Gods. Let alone Demon Gods themselves, even Evil Gods were difficult to deal with. He felt more and more like there was a scheme here. Qian Rongzhi was only a Demon King. How was she supposed to oppose him?
"Thank you for your concern, my lord. This place has been extended and expanded countless times over the past tens of millions of years. It's been abandoned and collapsed, so the terrain is complicated. It's completely become a maze. And, the power of the Chaotic Demon God permeates this place. Without anyone to lead the way, even Demon Kings will lose their way and be trapped here in the end. If those pieces of trash on the ground want to find us, they'll have to tear down the entire Demonic City and dig up everything within a range of fifty kilometers. "
Li Qingshan immediately understood what the power that was interfering with his divination was. And the deeper they went into this maze, the stronger the power became. But there were still loopholes.
"What will happen if one of you is captured? For example, you. "
The Green-winged Bat King said calmly, "I'll immediately destroy my own demon heart. And, actually, we don't know the exact location of the main altar. "
The passage ahead suddenly stopped. It was a collapsed, abandoned dead end. However, on the vast waterway stood a vermillion door. The paint was mottled, and the nails on the door were rusted. A golden sun was painted in the center, but it had also been eroded by the passage of time.
Apart from the stone lions on both sides of the door, there was nothing else in the surroundings. It was just a lonely door.
"My lord, we've arrived."
The Green-winged Bat King stood in front of the door. The eyes of the two stone lions suddenly turned and stared at them.
With a creak, the vermillion door slowly opened. Li Qingshan looked inside and saw a chaotic whirlpool.
"Interesting." Li Qingshan was a step ahead. He stepped over the high threshold and stepped into a shrine.
Everything was immersed in the tranquil darkness. The candles burned silently, blooming with light.
Pairs of eyes looked over from the darkness. There was only vigilance but no malice. When the Green-winged Bat King appeared, the candles surrounded him.
An old man with a walking stick asked, "Bat King, is this the guest that Cult Leader invited?"
"Yes, where is Cult Leader?"
"He's teaching the children in the shrine."
A child tugged at the corner of the Green-winged Bat King's clothes. "Uncle Green Wing, is it still raining outside? What's it like when it rains? "
"You'll know when you grow up."
The Green-winged Bat King smiled and rubbed the child's head. He was about to speak to Li Qingshan when he discovered that Li Qingshan's figure had already disappeared.
After entering this shrine, Li Qingshan immediately grasped the trajectory of fate and determined the location of Qian Rongzhi.
In the shrine, millions of candles flickered and were reflected in the eyes of the children.
A figure sat in the warm candlelight and was lecturing, "You are all brothers and sisters. You must love each other …"
That voice was faintly discernible as if it came from a faraway place. It was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman, young or old. However, there was a strange magic that directly poured into the hearts of the children.
"Cult Leader, my heart feels terrible!" A child pressed his chest. His devil heart was beating violently as if it was about to be torn apart. Two kinds of thoughts were fiercely clashing in his heart.
But when a hand grasped his hand, the pain was gone, and it became very warm.
"You have to endure it, understand?"
"I understand."
"Today's lesson ends here. You can all leave. My guest is here."
Li Qingshan stepped into the shrine and looked coldly at the "Cult Leader". His gaze pierced through the veil and discovered that there was still a layer of chaos behind it. It was almost impossible to see her true appearance.
His eyes focused and a mysterious light suddenly appeared. Just Now, he had completely seen through her.
"Qian Rongzhi, what the hell are you doing?"
"Is it just you?" Qian Rongzhi seemed a little disappointed. "Alright, I welcome you."
"Cut the crap. Bring me to Qingqi Mountain immediately!"
