Who Did It?
"Hurry up. Lord Black Dragon spared your lives out of benevolence. But now that you've fallen into my hands, I won't be so benevolent. If you want to live, then work obediently. If anyone dares to slack off, I'll whip him to death. "
A demon wielding a long whip stepped on the back of a human, waving the whip in his hand nonstop.
The people in front of him were all dressed in tattered clothes. Most of them were people from the Immortal Region who hadn't retreated in time and had been captured by the demons.
After being sealed by the experts of the Devil Race, they became slaves under their hands.
Bang.
At that moment, someone's legs suddenly went soft and he fell to the ground. They weren't ordinary people, but they hadn't closed their eyes for half a month. No one could guarantee how long they could endure this kind of high-intensity work.
The surrounding people all rushed over to help them up, but at that moment, a barbed whip viciously lashed them.
Smack.
This whip could be said to have split open their flesh. Those who went to help them all moved aside.
The demon race supervisor also walked over, stretched out his leg, and kicked the man who had fallen to the ground.
"Stop playing dead. Hurry up and get to work."
However, the person lying on the ground was still a bit dazed. He didn't want to be whipped, so he struggled to get up, but he didn't have the strength.
"Heh, playing dead, huh? Then this daddy will send you to your death."
Smack.
The whip lashed down without any hesitation, hitting the face and body of the person on the ground …
In the blink of an eye, that person was already badly mutilated by the Demon Clan supervisor.
When the others saw this, they all kept quiet out of fear. Only when the supervisor had whipped that person to death did he turn around and look coldly at the other slaves.
"What are you looking at? Get to work."
The slaves all shrunk their necks and turned around. At that moment, someone in the crowd suddenly threw the heavy wooden plank on his body to the ground.
"This daddy won't do it anymore."
"Hmph, it's been so long, and you still haven't tamed me. If the other brothers see this, won't they laugh at me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he lashed out with his whip. The person who threw the plank had his eyes bloodshot.
"This daddy will fight it out with you!"
"Humph."
The demon supervisor merely smiled faintly. He didn't even bother to use the whip. Instead, he reached out and grabbed the man's head, forcefully pulling it off.
The head was separated from the body, and the head of the person who wanted to revolt was casually thrown into the pile of slaves by the demon race supervisor.
"If anyone still doesn't want to work, you can say it."
No one dared to respond. The moment the rebel's head was thrown over, the flames of resistance in their hearts were extinguished.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is too bloody."
Up in the sky, Gu Li watched as the supervisor ripped the man's head off. He couldn't help but click his tongue. Beside him, Black Dragon simply crossed his arms and watched everything unfold with indifference.
"Why have you come to me?"
"Lord Black Dragon, you're truly forgetful." When Gu Li heard that, he looked away and smiled calmly. "Don't tell me you've forgotten our agreement to work together against the Three Realms?"
"So anxious?" Black Dragon raised his eyebrows.
"Hurry, Lord Black Dragon, it's been more than half a month. Don't tell me you're satisfied with just seizing this tiny piece of land? "
Gu Li arched his brows in astonishment. His tone was playful.
"It's just a few cities and a few slaves. Do you really think that's enough to erase all of your lofty ambitions?"
"Hmph, I don't need you to lecture me." Black Dragon's expression darkened, then he snorted coldly. "The Beast Region isn't as easy to break through as the Outer Immortal Region. They've long since established an impregnable fortress. Besides, they know we'll definitely fight our way in. Do you really think they'll just let us in without any defenses? "
"Of course not."
"Then do you want your people to scout the way in, or mine?" asked Black Dragon coldly.
This was a problem that affected both sides' interests. The Beast Region was absolutely riddled with traps and traps. Whoever went to step into this mine would definitely suffer a heavy loss of manpower.
They were allies, but they were also enemies. Neither side was willing to let their own forces suffer losses.
"It seems you haven't lost yourself in the power of this tiny place. You have your own ideas, after all."
Gu Li, on the other hand, wasn't annoyed by the question.
Instead, he laughed and said, "Of course we'd be at a disadvantage if we sent our own people, but I already had a plan. There's no need for anyone to do it. We'll just have the Beast Region's people help us clear the area. "
"You have that kind of trick up your sleeve?" snorted Black Dragon.
"Then why do you think I haven't come looking for you in so long? I know full well that you disdain such petty tricks, so I'll have to do it myself. After all, I'm just a nobody."
"You really have some tricks up your sleeve. You even managed to plant people in the Beast Region. I presume you have quite a few of them in the demon race as well. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Black Dragon's expression darkened. His piercing gaze seemed to pierce right through Gu Li's soul.
Gu Li's expression stiffened, then he laughed, "Your Excellency Black Dragon, you really know how to joke.
"Lord Black Dragon, you really know how to joke. You've managed this place for tens of thousands of years. If I wanted to infiltrate it, I'd need an opportunity, wouldn't I? The Twelve Demon Sovereigns were all your gullibility. As for the ordinary demons, even if I tried, it wouldn't work, right? "
"Hmph." Black Dragon snorted noncommittally, then said, "since you've put it that way, it means you have people in the Beast Region. Naturally, everything will be easy. The demon race's elites have been accumulating power, waiting to attack. So long as you can make the lightning disappear, we'll attack as soon as possible. "
"Then …. It's a deal."
"Mhm."
… …
"Senior Dragon God, these are the people we've chosen."
Lei Hu, Tu Biyu, and Zhuge Hong appeared in the Dragon Race's great hall. Six people followed behind them.
Some were old, some were in their prime, and some were young.
Their faces showed that they were not afraid of death. It was obvious that these patriarchs had done a lot of brainstorming with them before they came.
"Senior Dragon God, your Dragon Race ….."
"Come in."
As his voice faded, six people walked in from outside the great hall. However, the clan heads were astonished to see that Xia Yingqiu, Xia Yingda, and even Xia Keke were among them.
"Senior Dragon God!"
Lei Hu was shaken. Choosing all of these people would not be as simple as hurting his muscles and bones.
They'd be destroying the entire Dragon Race!
"What is it? Is there a problem?"
The Dragon God furrowed his brows. He didn't want to let these people in, but the Dragon Race had truly declined.
Only the six of them possessed the pure bloodline of the Golden Dragon!
"No ….."
As if sensing the old Dragon God's resentment, Lei Hu swallowed the words he was about to say. At that moment, however, Xia Hua, the head of the Dragon Race, hurriedly rushed in.
"Senior Dragon God, our Beast Region's spiritual formation was destroyed from the inside!"
