Xunming Town, a small town only ten miles away from Tianji City, was currently being ravaged by the flames of war. A group of evil Yangshang Army's advance team plundered countless belongings, food, and women like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves. In the prison carriage, a young girl in her twenties, wearing a green prison uniform, lay lifelessly on a pile of straw. Beside her was the person who was in charge of escorting her.
The person wore a blood-red armor and held a spear in his hand. His face was covered by a helmet, revealing only his frightening eyes. He spurred his warhorse forward slowly and said impatiently to the guards beside him, "Stop being so wishy-washy. If those wicked people come to bother us again, shoot them down! Hmph, this girl's appearance is not bad, so I won't make her a concubine. Leave her here. "
"Yes, Lord Filet!"
Filet, who used to be a Divine King expert in the Northern Divine Realm, had now fallen to the level of a Holy Venerable, but his desire to bully the weak had not diminished at all. He still held his spear and guarded his spoils of war. There were a total of three large carriages of supplies, and this was all the belongings that could be plundered from the entire Xunming Town.
At this moment, a shout came from the snowy ground behind them. A group of people holding forks and pickaxes rushed over. The leader was an old man, and he shouted in despair, "Let go of my daughter, you can take the food and cotton, but … let go of my daughter, she did not violate the empire's laws, you can't take her away! Village chief … please say something for me … "
The white-haired village chief hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "My lord, our Xunming Town has paid its quarterly taxes on time. Just now, all the belongings in the town have also been offered to you, my lord. Please be magnanimous and let go of his daughter. I … I will kneel down in front of you, please be magnanimous …"
The old man knelt on the snowy ground shakily and bowed with his whole body prostrated.
"Village Chief, I don't want to make things difficult for you, but I've said it before. Don't bring your people to chase after me. Otherwise, I won't be polite. Since you're here, it's not unreasonable for me to do something."
There was a sneer on Felix's face. Suddenly, he grabbed the longbow on the side of the warhorse and shot an arrow. His archery skills were exceptional. With a "puchi" sound, the arrow pierced the neck of the Village Chief. Blood spurted out and the Village Chief died on the snowy ground without a sound, his body convulsing and trembling.
"Kill!"
Filet roared angrily, "These ungrateful and unruly people, kill them all!"
The guards drew their bows and arrows and shot randomly at the townspeople who were holding farming tools. Dozens of townspeople could not resist the arrows and fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.
"I'll fight it out with you bastards!"
The father of the captured girl raised his iron pickaxe and rushed over. Even though he had been shot twice in the leg, he still used the iron pickaxe to support himself as he walked over. His eyes were filled with rage. "I'm going to kill you, you devil … I'm going to kill you …"
Filet looked at the old father and sneered at the girl in the cage, "Beauty, in order for you to serve me without any worries in the future, I'll cut off your worldly thoughts today. I think my father-in-law will not be stingy with his life. Come!"
He suddenly spurred his horse and rushed forward. With a shake of his spear, the tip of the spear turned into a whirling flame and pierced through the old father's throat. Flesh and blood splattered and his head was almost blown off from his body. His method of killing was not only cruel, it was simply inhumane!
"Father!"
The girl in the prison cart let out a heart-wrenching scream. She desperately hit the wooden pillar of the cart with her head but it was to no avail. She was simply too weak to fight against the strong person in front of her.
Filet pulled out the spear, brought it to his mouth and licked a mouthful of blood. He chuckled, "The blood of mortals is actually so delicious, hehehe …"
Beside him, another former God State expert seemed to be unable to bear it anymore. He frowned and said, "Filet, don't forget that you used to be one of the gods of the Northern Divine Realm. Aren't you afraid of divine retribution for killing innocent people in the mortal world?"
"Divine retribution?"
Filet laughed, "George, my friend, do you think it's not divine retribution for us to turn from gods to mortals? Since even the heavens have given up on us, why should we still stubbornly cling to the path of gods? The gods have already fallen, and the Heavenly Dao has already collapsed. What I want is power and status, not some Heavenly Dao. Hmph, to hell with the Heavenly Dao. It's just a trick to deceive idiots. "
George frowned but didn't say anything.
At this moment, the sky was filled with purple clouds and lightning shook the earth!
"Boom boom boom!"
The nearby forest was set ablaze because of the lightning strike. Everyone was shocked. The demonic energy in the air was very thick, and they could even faintly see lines of obscure purple characters looming in the sky.
"What is that!?" George gripped his sword tightly, his face ashen.
Filet also gripped his spear tightly and growled, "Get into formation and prepare to meet the enemy!"
However, there were no enemies. Instead, a golden scroll unfurled in the air. Almost the entire vault of heaven was covered and occupied by the scroll. A vast heavenly might surged over the earth of the mortal world, and a mysterious buzzing power invaded all living things. Not long after, a beam of purple light shot down from the horizon and bombarded into Felix's body with a 'shua' sound. There wasn't even a single warning!
"Ahhhhh …"
Filet felt as if his body was about to explode. He rolled over and fell off his horse, curled up and trembled as if he was in great pain.
At this time, a giant demonic shadow slowly condensed in the air, looking at the people on the ground with disdain. The voice sounded as if it came from beyond the heavens and said emotionlessly, "Filet, you have done all kinds of bad things, and your heart is filled with resentment. You have achieved the demonic path and received the recognition of the Demon Sealing Book. Today, I will grant you a demonic body and confer you the title of a Second Class God, 'Lionheart Demon God'. I hope you will behave yourself and serve the demonic path in this world!"
The demonic shadow disappeared in an instant, and strands of demonic energy began to gather, falling from the sky and seeping into Filet's body.
…
"Ahhh …"
Filet's miserable howl woke everyone from their shock. They saw Filet's body tremble violently, and a purple demonic body appeared behind him, gradually fusing with his body. At the same time, an awe-inspiring divine power rippled out. When Filet opened his eyes, everyone saw a pair of purple eyes.
He had obtained a demonic body and was titled as a Demon God!
Just like that, the first Demon God of the mortal world was born!
"Filet, you … how did you become like this!?" George asked in horror.
"Why, isn't this good?" Filet sneered, "George, are you not used to the current me?"
"I … I …"
"Aren't you the God of Kindness? Do you still think so now? "Filet's eyes shone with a fierce light.
"Filet, are you crazy?! What are you trying to do?! "George had already pulled out his sword.
"This team only needs one leader," Ye Zichen said.
Filet shouted, and the spear pierced through George's heart like lightning. George did not even have time to react. Filet's speed was far beyond George's imagination, so much so that George, who had fallen to the Holy King Realm, was killed in an instant!
"Hiss …"
Blood gushed out along the spear. The dozens of Yangshang Army guards were dumbfounded. George was a small army commander in the army, but he was killed just like that.
Filet's eyes were full of malevolence. He slowly pulled out the spear and said, "From today onwards, I will be in charge of the First Army's 7th Squad. Do you all understand?"
"Yes, Lord Filet …" No one wanted to die. The current Filet's strength was unfathomable, and no one knew who he would kill next.
"Very well. Follow me to Tianji Palace to see Yangshang."
Unknowingly, Filet had changed the way he addressed Yangshang, the emperor. After all, he was now much stronger than Yangshang.
…
Shattered Cauldron Realm, East Coast.
Lin Muyu did not enter Winter Frost City. Instead, she stayed in the warm and comfortable palace. Instead, she brought the Longdan Army Camp's cavalry division to the Blue Wind Harbor's station. Although the station was cold, it at least made her feel more at ease.
In the afternoon, heavy snow began to fall again.
Inside the commander's tent, the four generals, Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, QianFeng, and Ding Xi, surrounded a huge sand table map and were pondering how Yangshang would start this war. However, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside, and the rumbling sound was deafening.
"What's wrong?!"
Feng Jixing was stunned.
"Let's go out and take a look." Lin Muyu flew out of the commander's tent and saw that Tang Xiaoxi, Qin Yin, Chu Yao, and Ouyang Yan had already come out of the tent at the side. Outside, thunder rumbled, and purple clouds rolled in. The strong sense of oppression was almost suffocating. At the same time, the sky was soon covered with a golden scroll glowing with purple light. Countless ancient characters were faintly discernible in the air.
It was the Book of Investiture of the Gods, also known as the Book of Investiture of Gods.
Then, the roar of the demonic shadow came faintly from the sky, and the words of investiture of gods were transmitted to the people of the Shattered Cauldron Realm.
Investiture of gods.
But it was a Demon God.
Everyone was shocked. Some soldiers of the Longdan Army Camp turned pale. That name, was it someone from the Celestial Pole Continent? Someone in the opponent's camp was actually investiture of gods. This was a fatal blow to the morale of the Qin Empire.
"Dog Heavenly Dao!"
Zhang Wei pointed to the sky and said, "What kind of Heavenly Dao are you? You actually investiture a bad guy? What kind of dog are you!?"
"Zhang Wei! Shut up! "
Lin Muyu frowned and said, "People are divided into good and evil, good and evil, and so are gods. You can disagree with this distinction, but you must be in awe."
Zhang Wei grinned and didn't continue to say anything. In this world, there were only three people who could shut him up. One was Feng Jixing, one was Lin Muyu, and the other was the Female Empress, Qin Yin.
Ding Xi's eyes flickered, and he nodded and said, "It seems that the situation is developing in a worse direction."
Feng Jixing said, "Yu, what is this Demon God?"
"I don't know either." Lin Muyu shook her head, and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes. She said, "But one thing is certain. The people of the Realm of Gods said that the war of gods and demons tens of thousands of years ago is going to happen again. The difference is that this time, it is very likely that we will be the participants of the war of gods and demons."
Feng Jixing was speechless.
