In the world of Hell, apart from the core circle, the various races were scattered in other places. These creatures of Hell had different living habits, and often fought with each other. However, they all agreed to obey Satan's orders. As long as the fighting between them wasn't too intense, Satan usually didn't care. Only the strongest of the various races could join the Burning Legion ruled by Satan. That was the strongest armed force in Hell.
Qi Yue was very familiar with the cities of Hell, because the Dark Parliament's Hell City had been built in imitation of Hell. Therefore, the buildings here were almost exactly the same as Hell City, with spires everywhere. In the core circle of Hell, all sorts of laws were very strict. Here, apart from the gladiator arenas, no one was allowed to fight. If anyone alarmed Satan, or did something that angered Satan, there would only be one result: extermination.
Satan had absolute authority in this world. Apart from those fellows in the Valley of Demons, almost no one dared to go against his wishes.
Qi Yue's appearance was extremely similar to that of the Black Generals. As the royalty of Hell, the Black Generals had a great advantage. At least, no other creatures of Hell dared to provoke the Black Generals in the core circle of Hell. This was because more than 30% of the people in the core circle of Hell came from the Black Generals. This was the advantage of royalty.
Qi Yue walked on the streets. As he walked towards the core circle of Hell, he observed his surroundings. In this huge ring-shaped city, there was an endless stream of creatures of Hell. However, it was different from human cities. Almost all the things sold here were things that could only be found on the bodies of creatures of Hell. In this world where the strong preyed on the weak. Creatures of Hell were the masters of Hell, and also the source of everything else. Powerful creatures of Hell could treat weaker creatures of Hell as food, or even decorations and other things. One's status in Hell was completely determined by one's martial prowess. Whoever was stronger would be respected by others, or rather, feared.
All sorts of shops sold dead or alive creatures of Hell. These Hell creatures that were caught and sold would be branded. Even if they were of the same race, it would be impossible to rescue them under such circumstances. No one would try to rescue them. Unless they were bought. The currency in Hell was very strange. It was actually carved out of stone. Qi Yue had seen this kind of stone before. It was the kind found in the Canyon of Myriad Demons, and it was far harder than metal. Some of the more powerful creatures of Hell even wore Hell Stone coins around their necks.
Meanwhile. This was also a black city. All the buildings were black, and at least 30% of the hell creatures were black. The gloomy atmosphere in the city seemed to be filled with the smell of blood.
Was this the Infernal Realm? It was truly a hellish world. What a cold feeling! This feeling filled Qi Yue with disgust. Here, it was made up of almost all negative emotions. Qi Yue found it hard to accept the bloody products in the shops. Some merchants even sold their own clansmen as commodities. He killed him in the shop. Whenever such a situation occurred, a large number of hell creatures would gather and cheer excitedly. Bloodthirst appeared in almost every one of them.
If such a creature were to occupy Earth, what kind of scene would it be? Qi Yue didn't dare to imagine. No, I can't let Satan succeed. Qi Yue's heart was filled with a strong desire to fight. Invisible energy was released inadvertently. The powerful aura immediately made the hell creatures that passed by quickly move away. Their eyes were filled with respect.
Qi Yue wouldn't eat the food in Hell. Because it was almost all blood and meat. It already looked disgusting. Soon, he was close to the inner city. The height of the inner city wall was actually higher than the outer city. As long as he passed through here. He would be able to enter the open area between the Demon King Fortress and the ring city.
Qi Yue didn't know how many city gates there were. Anyway, there was one in front of him. At the entrance, there were at least hundreds of Burning Legion soldiers guarding. The Burning Legion was very easy to identify. He didn't know what kind of power Satan gave them, but these Burning Legion soldiers all had a green flame burning on their bodies. The stronger the flame, the stronger their strength, and the higher their position in the Burning Legion.
Should I charge through? If that's the case, I will be exposed immediately. Looks like I can only rely on my invisibility to sneak in.
Thinking of this, Qi Yue left the city gate and prepared to find a place to hide. Then, he would think of a way to pass through the gate and enter the Demon King Fortress to find Leng 'Er.
At this moment, a noise suddenly reached Qi Yue's ears. It seemed like two hell creatures were arguing. Turning around, he saw that these two hell creatures were actually Black Generals like him. They also had a pair of wings on their backs.
"You? You want to participate in tomorrow's matchmaking with just your strength? I think you should stop dreaming. "
"Kid, do you want to go to the arena and let me beat you up so badly that even your mother can't recognize you? What's wrong with me? Why can't I participate? The great Satan has already issued an order. No matter who it is, as long as they are a member of the Black Generals, they have the right to participate in tomorrow's matchmaking. Whoever Her Highness likes will be the son-in-law. When that time comes, Satan will directly raise the son-in-law's strength to the level of a Six Wing. I know you're ugly because you're jealous of my handsomeness. "
"Bullshit, I'm jealous of you? Why don't you take a piss and see what you look like? Hmph, do you think I'll be afraid of you in the arena? "The two Black Generals dragged each other and left. At the same time, they also brought along a large group of onlookers. The thing these hell creatures loved to do the most was to watch people duel. Only the scene of flesh and blood splattering everywhere could stimulate their bloodthirsty nerves.
Matchmaking? The Princess of Hell's matchmaking. Leng'Er had said that she was Satan's only daughter. Was she going to marry?
Was she going to marry? He didn't know why. After hearing this news, Qi Yue felt a slight pain in his heart. Leng'Er's beautiful face kept flashing before his eyes. Leng'Er! Is this your idea or Satan's?
Originally, Qi Yue was ready to go to the Demon King's Castle immediately. But for some reason, after hearing this news. Are you still reading second-hand books? He actually didn't go to the Demon King's Castle in stealth mode. Instead, he decided to stay in the Core Circle of Hell for a day. Matchmaking? Seems like this is a good opportunity. At least I can be sure that Leng'Er will be there. Qi Yue comforted himself like this. But unknowingly, his fists were clenched tightly.
Hell also had inns, but they were very expensive. Only a few high-ranking nobles in Hell could afford them. And the Black Generals were royalty, so there shouldn't be any problems. After secretly stealing some Hell Stone Coins from some people, Qi Yue turned into a rich man and found an inn to stay in. He wasn't greedy for comfort, because he could only stay in a place like an inn. It was the easiest place to get information.
The inns in Hell were very clean. Qi Yue checked into an inn called Hell's Heart. In the Hell World, there seemed to be only slaughter. Handicrafts and other industries were pathetically rare, so much so that the inn's guests were actually served on stone beds. As for bedding and other things. They were mostly made from the bodies of hell creatures. For example, a chamber pot made from the head of a Demon Bear of Hell. These were the things that Qi Yue didn't want to touch.
After paying, Qi Yue directly went to the restaurant in the inn. He needed to get the information he wanted from there.
Once he entered the restaurant, Qi Yue realized that he shouldn't have come. The thick smell of blood almost made him fall. He couldn't help but feel confused. Could it be that hell creatures didn't even know how to use fire and had to eat raw food? Looking at the bloody meat of various hell creatures on the other tables, Qi Yue almost vomited. And the drinks sold in the restaurant were also made from the blood of various hell creatures. It looked very strange. Hell, as expected of Hell!
"Handsome young man from the royal family. What would you like to eat and drink? "A gentle voice sounded beside Qi Yue. When he turned around, he saw a person who was about 1.6 meters tall. She was about the same size as Mo Dan at her fattest. She had a head of messy green hair and a body full of stinky liquid. She stood in front of him, her eyes shining with charm.
Damn it, this gap is too big. Qi Yue really suspected that the voice just now came from her mouth.
He waved his hand and said, "Give me a drink."
The horrifying waiter continued to ask, "What drink do you want? We have a full range of blood from all races here. "
Qi Yue said coldly, "I want the Black Generals."
The waiter's eyes changed, and he hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "Respected young man from the royal family, you are really bold! That is a taboo! Don't talk nonsense. How about a cup of the blood of a three-headed hell hound as your drink? Only the blood of a three-headed hell hound is worthy of your nobility. "
Qi Yue thought to himself, Hell also has taboos? He waved his hand impatiently and said, "Then give me a cup of anything." He wouldn't drink it anyway, but he still had to put something on the table. Otherwise, it would be too easy to arouse suspicion.
The stinky waiter finally left. Qi Yue calmed down and gathered Thundercloud Force to his ears. He carefully searched for the information he wanted in the noisy restaurant.
There were many people in the restaurant, and this was because this restaurant was relatively high-class and expensive. If it was an ordinary restaurant, it would have been overcrowded. Because of the princess's marriage contest, the entire core circle of Hell was unprecedentedly lively. Most of the other races of Hell came to watch the show, but the Black Generals were all rubbing their hands. As long as they were of the right age and looked similar, they all hoped to fly up the branches and become demons. If they could marry the princess of Hell, the Great Demon King Satan would be able to raise his son-in-law's strength to at least six-winged. That was the biggest dream of any hell creature.
With his hearing coverage, Qi Yue easily obtained everything he wanted to know. After all, at this time, almost the entire core circle of Hell was discussing the topic of the princess's marriage contest. It was impossible not to hear it even if he didn't want to.
"Brother, you have a great chance this time! You're the cream of the crop among the younger generation of the Black Generals Tribe. You've reached four-winged at such a young age, and you're so handsome. When you become the emperor's son-in-law, don't forget to help me out. " A strange-looking, two-headed giant exuding a foul stench spoke to a young man from the Black Generals Tribe beside him.
The young man from the Black Generals Tribe looked very handsome indeed. His hair was gray, and if not for the layer of scales on his body, he looked no different from a human. His expression was very cold, and his entire body exuded a layer of evil aura. From a visual estimate, he was about two meters tall with broad shoulders. His body constantly emitted layers of powerful energy waves. Perhaps it was because of his superior strength that he sat in the center of the restaurant.
With a sinister smile, the young man said, "That's easy. If I can really marry Princess Leng'Er, I'll definitely not forget you, Brother."
The two-headed monster said, "It's a pity I'm not from the Black Generals Tribe. Otherwise, I might even give it a try. What an honor it would be to be bestowed with such powerful dark energy by His Majesty! "
The young man snorted disdainfully and looked at the two-headed monster. "I'm not saying this, but with your looks? Do you think the princess will like you? This time, His Majesty has allowed us, the Black Generals Tribe, to participate in the betrothal contest. Only a member of the royal family is worthy of the princess' nobility. Actually, I'm not particularly interested in the energy bestowed by His Majesty. Perhaps you've never seen Princess Leng'Er before. Her Highness is definitely the most beautiful woman in hell. I truly like her. She's always been the most noble witch in my heart. "At this point, the light in his eyes became somewhat infatuated.
One could imagine that Leng'Er's status in hell was not as high as Satan's, but it wasn't that far off. Satan's proposal to betrothal this time had the entire hell boiling over. Beauties, power, and strength would all be concentrated on one lucky person. Who wouldn't want to win in the end?
The two-headed monster's eyes revealed a trace of malevolence, but it quickly disappeared. He smiled apologetically. "Of course, of course. Brother, you're just right for Her Highness. Right, where will the betrothal contest be held this time? Also, how are we going to do it? Your Black Generals Tribe has a lot of people, and many of them are of suitable age. With so many people, are you going to let Her Highness choose one by one? Or a lot at once? "
The young man said, "You probably don't know about this. His Majesty has already announced the betrothal contest, and only our Black Generals Tribe has received the news. For this betrothal contest, His Majesty has set an unprecedented precedent, allowing everyone to enter the core circle of hell. It will be held in the empty space between the great Demon King Castle and the core circle of hell. At that time, our Black Generals Tribe will be allowed to enter the core circle. "
"Ah! In the core circle, this, this is a place that only the Burning Legion can enter! Brother, you're really honored this time. "
Hearing the two-headed monster mention the Burning Legion, the young man's expression became somewhat unnatural. He said hatefully, "The Burning Legion is probably my biggest obstacle this time. In the Burning Legion, there are many of our Black Generals clansmen. When the time came, they would definitely participate in the marriage contest. One of the Burning Legion's super experts, the Terror Demon King, would probably come as well. If we were to compete in strength, I would definitely have no hope. However, their appearances are rather poor compared to our Black Generals Clan, so I still have a chance. "At this point, the Black Generals Clan's eyes lit up. He couldn't help but feel slightly dejected. After all, the Black General Clan was one of the largest clans in the entire Hell, and the number of people participating in this marriage search was unimaginable. How could it be easy to emerge victorious amongst so many people?
The two-headed monster replied, "I hope Your Majesty won't allow the Dreadlords to participate in this betrothal contest. Otherwise. I'm afraid you don't even have the courage to participate. Who would dare to fight against the powerful Dreadlord? "
The young man snorted strangely and said, "That's where you're wrong. This marriage isn't entirely based on martial strength. His Majesty the Great Demon King hoped to find a son-in-law for Her Royal Highness. Therefore, this marriage contest will be carried out in two ways. The first method is for His Majesty and the Fallen Angel, His Highness Lucifer, to pick the most beautiful and outstanding people from our race. Then, Her Highness Princess will choose if Her Highness Princess can choose one of us. If Her Royal Highness can choose one of us, then the marriage contest will be over. Her Royal Highness will only choose one son-in-law. "
The two-headed monster asked, "Then what about the second way? What is it? "
The young man said, "If Her Royal Highness really can't choose the person she likes from us, then we'll really have to use martial strength to solve the problem. His Majesty Satan said that when the time comes, there will be a marriage contest. Every member of the Black General Tribe will have a chance. Ten people will be chosen based on their strength, and then His Majesty will personally choose one. At that time, Her Royal Highness won't have a choice. Therefore, I think Her Royal Highness will still choose the first way to choose the son-in-law. After all, in that situation, the decision will still be in her hands. If His Majesty were to choose. I'm afraid it would be very difficult to satisfy Her Royal Highness. Therefore, I still have a lot of chances. "
Hearing this, Qi Yue roughly understood the meaning of the marriage contest. Needless to say, this marriage contest was forcefully decided by Satan. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a marriage contest. He didn't know why, but seeing that Hell was carrying out this ancient marriage contest. Qi Yue felt very excited. He also wanted to see how Hell was going to choose a son-in-law. Moreover, Leng 'Er would definitely appear during the marriage contest. With his strength, he would definitely be able to find a chance to interact with Leng' Er. Wasn't there going to be a marriage contest? Hehe, tomorrow, I'll first reduce the strength of these fellows from Hell.
Thinking of this, Qi Yue stood up. He didn't even look at the fresh blood that had just been served. He threw down the money and returned to his room.
The princess' marriage contest could be said to be the biggest event in Hell in the past thousands of years. This time, the entire Hell was shaken. The Burning Legion was completely deployed to the surroundings of the core circle of Hell. After all, in Hell, Satan had absolute authority. As long as he was still around, the other races of Hell would not be able to rebel against his rule.
Early in the morning, one could see from the city walls of the inner circle of Hell that large patches of green light had already appeared around the gigantic Demon King's Castle. It was filled with evil and powerful energy. This was the only army in Hell, the Burning Legion that belonged to Satan. The orderly formation and strong physique made the Burning Legion look very terrifying. In terms of numbers, there were at least 100,000 soldiers of the Burning Legion in the inner circle of Hell. They lined up in rows, dividing the spacious and empty space between the inner circle and the Demon King's Castle.
The Black Generals had long received Satan's orders. Therefore, early in the morning, under the supervision of the Burning Legion, they had already started to enter. At this time, the city walls of the inner circle of Hell were already filled with people. There were even many platforms set up below the city walls. Although they couldn't participate in the princess' marriage contest, the other races of Hell who had come were very eager to see this grand event and their great Demon King Satan.
Qi Yue quietly lined up with the Black Generals. The Black Generals were divided into many parts, including a few large tribes. The members of the Black Generals from these tribes would naturally gather together. Qi Yue could only follow the scattered members of the Black Generals in a long queue, ready to be inspected by the Burning Legion.
Qi Yue wasn't worried that he would be recognized. Even Sana couldn't tell that he was a human, let alone the Burning Legion. However, the long queue made him feel a little bored. He could only ponder over the mixed application of his Thundercloud Force while he was queuing. If he were to fight in the contest later, what kind of energy would be most suitable for him? After all, most of the energy possessed by the hell creatures here was dark energy. Although there were energy patterns that were similar to natural energy, there was also dark energy mixed in. Perhaps normal hell creatures wouldn't be able to see the difference in their energy, but hell creatures of the Dreadlord rank and above could easily see the situation of their energy.
What should he do? Regarding this problem, Qi Yue quickly thought of a solution. At his level of power. His attainments in energy conversion was not something a normal person could compare to.
But, that was still god-level power! Simulation, he could only use his own energy to simulate the dark energy. Qi Yue believed that with his control over his energy, unless Satan was watching closely, he wouldn't be able to see anything. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to see anything.
After a long wait, when the purple sun's light became very strong, he finally passed the inspection at the city gate. The Burning Legion's inspection was actually very simple, it wasn't to confirm one's identity. As long as one was a member of the Black Generals, and his age wasn't out of the range, they would naturally let him through. Therefore, apart from a few old men seeking marriage, most of the Black Generals were let in. Qi Yue was naturally among them.
As soon as he left the city gate. Qi Yue was instantly shocked by the scene in front of him. The distance between the core circle of hell and the Demon King's Castle was much larger than he had imagined. As far as the eye could see, the Burning Legion was like a green ocean. This was the place closest to the purple sun of hell. Naturally, the dark energy was also the most abundant. Under the cover of the dark energy, the Burning Legion gave off an incredibly powerful aura, easily giving off a strong sense of oppression. The Black Generals were divided into many groups by the Burning Legion according to the different gates they came out of. Each group formed a somewhat chaotic formation. They waited quietly in a designated area.
According to Qi Yue's preliminary judgment, the number of Black Generals who came to participate in the betrothal contest had already surpassed the Burning Legion inside. It seemed that hell was indeed powerful. Although he didn't know how many hellish creatures there were in hell, just the Black Generals in front of him alone. Almost enough to form another Burning Legion. Of course, even if ordinary forces were to arrive on Earth, they would not be able to do much. If his guess was correct, Satan was able to bring hell to the human world, and the people he brought with him must be the elites of the entire hell. Even the Burning Legion couldn't all go to Earth. They still had to leave some people to guard here. To stop hell's attack, they only needed to wait for the path to the human world to close. At that time, at least hell wouldn't have any reinforcements. It seemed that hell would bring a great disaster to the human world, but it wouldn't be that easy to take over the entire Earth. After all, the technological prowess on Earth was far beyond that of hell.
More and more Black Generals had gathered. At this time, in the Demon King's Castle, Leng'Er was throwing her princess temper.
Boom — — The room had long since been destroyed by the enormous dark energy and became a mess. Leng'Er angrily swept the table in front of her into pieces. "I won't marry. Father, why are you doing this to me?" Leng'Er glared at Satan next to her.
Satan looked at her calmly, as if he didn't see the destruction in front of him. However, the only person in hell who dared to cause destruction in the Demon King's Castle was probably this daughter of his.
"Leng'Er, stop messing around. You should know that once father has decided on something, he can't change it. Especially in this matter, you've already seen that there are at least a hundred thousand Black Generals participating in this marriage search. As the ruler of the entire hell, father must keep his word. Especially now that the person participating in this marriage search is a member of the royal family of hell. Alright, dress up nicely, the ceremony is about to begin. Don't let me hear what you just said, otherwise, you know what I'll do. "
Leng'Er was already in despair as she looked at Satan's cold gaze. She knew that nothing she did now would be of any use. In this world of hell, father was the absolute ruler. Even she couldn't change anything from him.
Qi Yue did not stand out amongst the numerous members of the Black General Clan. Most of these youths were around two meters tall, and there was no lack of handsome ones amongst them. Moreover, in order to display their strength, quite a few members of the Black General Clan had unleashed their wings. Although only a few percent of the entire Black General Clan possessed wings, they were undoubtedly the greatest competitors in this marriage contest. The stronger one was, the closer they stood to the front. There were even some places where internal strife had already begun. Since they were here, who wouldn't want to be successful?
The entire process lasted for an entire morning. Under the supervision of the Burning Legion, although there were still some small fights, there were no major disturbances. According to the division of the Burning Legion, all the Black Generals were divided into 36 groups, surrounding the open space around the Demon King's Castle like stars surrounding the moon. This was the first time Qi Yue saw so many people gathered together. Although it was in hell, the grandeur still made him gasp in amazement.
When the gates of the core circle of hell closed, everyone was getting impatient from the anticipation. However, a dignified voice silenced the entire scene.
"My people, the people of the royal family. Today is the day I decide my daughter's marriage. I, the ruler of hell, Satan. I, the ruler of hell, Satan, announce it here. No matter who it is, as long as he becomes my son-in-law, he will become the Prince of Hell who will assist Leng'Er. No matter why you've come here, I hope to see your greatest strength in front of me. "
Satan, it's Satan. Qi Yue gazed into the distance and saw seven to eight people standing on a huge platform at the top of the Demon King's Castle. And standing at the very front, the giant who was more than 15 meters tall, was Satan. His whole body was shrouded in a layer of black air, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly. However, from his tall figure and cold eyes, it could be seen that Satan's appearance was very similar to Sana's. They were worthy of being brothers. And he was the ruler of the entire hell!
Hearing Satan's voice, the originally somewhat impatient crowd immediately fell into extreme excitement. Everyone shouted Satan's name, and the entire scene became boiling. Huge energy fluctuations produced intense energy effects. One could almost see with the naked eye that large areas of black air were rising in the huge square. And under the contrast of these black air, the purple sun became even more dazzling.
