Zhong Lou the Venerable's arrival was very sudden, completely out of Lan Ling and Young Rakshasa King's expectations.
Young Rakshasa King showed his prowess and defeated the 450,000 strong army brought by Princess Di Ning, especially the 100,000 strong Sky Legion and the 150,000 Ghost Bat Legion.
Shrouded in starry sky magic meteorite dust, he looked like a Demon shadow, which was terrifying and intimidating.
Logically speaking, be it the Lord of the Underworld or the five Venerable Ones, they would not be able to attack Flame Demon City again. Therefore, Young Rakshasa King rushed to Cloud Disaster Kingdom to help Lan Ling crack the psychic password that controlled the Hidden Devil Army.
After the Sky Rakshasa Crown Prince retreated, Rakshasa King and the five Venerable Ones had even less reason to attack Flame Demon City.
Why would Zhong Lou the Venerable bring a dozen Demon Venerables and hundreds of Demon Grandmasters to attack Flame Demon City?
There was no reason at all. Lan Ling and Young Rakshasa King could not figure it out.
The two of them brought the Death Warriors and the Golden Warriors back to Flame Demon City as fast as they could.
In less than ten hours, they returned to Flame Demon City.
But it was too late!
Zhong Lou the Venerable had already left for seven hours.
…
Entering the gates of Flame Demon City, Lan Ling's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
That was because thousands of heads were stuck on the walls of Flame Demon City. Of those who died, one-third were Lan Ling's men, and two-thirds were the men brought by Young Rakshasa King.
Young Rakshasa King left 17 Demon Venerables, 190 Demon Grandmasters, and 2,000 MCMAU Grandmasters in Flame Demon City.
This force was already very powerful, but Zhong Lou the Sage was a Devil Sage powerhouse. Without the Young Rakshasa King, he was still defeated in this short battle.
Young Rakshasa King's Demon Venerables died three, and seven were injured. The Demon Grandmasters lost 26, and hundreds were injured. Hundreds of MCMAU Grandmasters died.
On Lan Ling's side, more than three hundred top-notch martial artists had died. All of them were MCMAU Grandmasters that Lan Ling had painstakingly nurtured. A small portion of them were from the Human Tribe, and the majority were from the Rakshasa Tribe.
Fortunately, Consort Nishang and Gou Li made a prompt decision to bring Dina, Little Tanuki, Yoon Hi-hee, Princess Sha Yan, and two children to the top of the Mirror Mountain, where they were protected by the Mirror Demon King.
Zhong Lou Venerable was extremely brave. He alone killed his way to the top of Jing Mountain. As a result, he fell into the Mirror Demon King's mental trap and spent a lot of effort to get out, so he couldn't capture Lan Ling's woman and child.
However, he had captured Lan Ling's uncle, the chairman of the Flame Demon Council, Suo Mo, and Black Demon City Master Black Curse's wife, Fire Phoenix.
Suo Mo felt that he was a warrior and had the responsibility to protect Lan Ling's wife and children. Fire phoenix also feels that as a warrior, she has to protect the weaker ones.
Therefore, the two of them were always fighting on the frontlines.
Zhong Lou Venerable couldn't find any more valuable hostages, so he captured the two of them.
Lan Ling looked at the thousands of heads on the city wall. Each head was dripping blood.
Lan Ling's heart was also bleeding. Ever since the Flame Demon Tribe, Lan Ling hadn't suffered such a huge loss.
More than a thousand warriors died in battle, and most of them were above the Demon Martial Master level. Although most of them were Young Rakshasa King's people, they were also Lan Ling's people.
"Zhong Lou Venerable said that no one is allowed to touch the heads on the city wall. Otherwise, he will cut off Suo Mo's head." Gou Li said, "This is a letter he wrote to you!"
Lan Ling opened it and took a look.
The words on the letter were ferocious and domineering.
"Lan Ling lowly dog, if you want to save your uncle, come to the Thirteenth Floor!"
… …
"Golden Warrior Regiment, stay and guard the Flame Demon City." Lan Ling ordered.
This time, they couldn't let anyone take advantage of the situation again.
The Golden Warrior Regiment had a total of 48 Demon Venerables and nearly 800 Demon Ancestors. Moreover, they were almost indestructible. Even if any Devil Sage level Venerable came to attack the Flame Demon City, it would be able to resist for a while.
"Let's go to the Thirteenth Floor!" Lan Ling said.
Then, he led more than 12,000 death warriors, as well as the two Demon Sages, Blood Wolf King and Young Rakshasa King. They covered the sky and flew towards the Thirteenth Floor majestically.
He wanted to see what all of this was for.
Did Zhong Lou Venerable suddenly attack the Flame Demon City because he couldn't resist the benefits, or because he had completely gone mad?
When Crown Prince Gu Tu was killed by Lan Ling, he didn't see this teacher go crazy.
… …
The Thirteenth Floor was located in the north of the Rakshasa Tribe's territory. It was 4,900 miles away from the Flame Demon City and more than 1,000 miles away from the Heaven Demon Tribe.
All along, Zhong Lou Venerable had a close relationship with the Heaven Demon Tribe, and his status had always been high. In addition, he was a violent, domineering, and crazy person. Even the Rakshasa King had to give way to him.
As the third-ranked martial arts force in the Rakshasa Tribe's territory, the Thirteenth Floor had more than 39 Demon Venerables, more than 500 Demon Ancestors, and more than 5,000 Demon Martial Masters.
Ten hours later, Lan Ling, Young Rakshasa King, and Blood Wolf King led the 12,000 death warriors to the Thirteenth Floor.
The so-called Thirteenth Floor was also an ancient relic.
It was a 13-story building carved out of a huge stone mountain. Hence, it was named the Thirteenth Floor.
This stone mountain was more than 7,000 meters above sea level, but only 13 levels were carved out. Each level was more than 500 meters high. It was obvious how majestic and huge it was.
They arrived outside the Thirteenth Floor.
A white-faced old man stepped forward and said, "Are you Lan Ling?"
This white-faced old man was fat and wretched. His voice was sharp, and he looked like a eunuch. He was dressed like a servant.
Lan Ling said, "That's right!"
The white-faced old man said, "The hostages of your Flaming Demon Flag are in the Thirteenth Floor. If you want to take them away, go in. Master is waiting for you, but only you and Young Rakshasa King can go in. Otherwise, cut off Suo Mo's head immediately. "
From his words, he should be Venerable Zhong Lou's eunuch.
Lan Ling and Young Rakshasa King looked at each other and nodded.
The Blood Wolf King, who looked like a golden war god, walked out and sneered, "It's fine if I go in alone, right?"
"No …" The white-faced old man said coldly, "I said that only Lan Ling and Young Rakshasa King can go in. If you dilly-dally any longer, Suo Mo and Fire Phoenix will lose their limbs. "
Lan Ling and Young Rakshasa King landed on the first floor of the Thirteenth Floor.
…
In front of them was the gate of the Thirteenth Floor. It was a huge gate that was more than 300 meters tall.
Only the Ancient Demon Kingdom would be able to produce such a miraculous work.
"Rumble …" The huge gate opened.
Lan Ling and Young Rakshasa King walked into the first floor of the Thirteenth Floor.
Inside, it was densely packed with disciples of the Thirteenth Floor. All of their eyes were fixed on Lan Ling and the Tang people, and they were silent.
Wherever the two of them went, these people's eyes were fixed there.
Lan Ling ignored them and went up the stairs with Young Rakshasa King, one step at a time.
They came to the second floor, the third floor, and the fourth floor.
Every floor was densely packed with people.
Moreover, every person was cold and stiff, like a sculpture. If their eyes didn't follow Lan Ling, they would think that these were all dead people.
Every floor was like this, they were all living dead like sculptures.
Moreover, the air on every floor was incomparably cold.
After walking for a full hour, Lan Ling and Young Rakshasa King finally arrived at the Thirteenth Floor, the highest floor.
Here, he saw Uncle Suo Mo and Black Demon City Lord's wife, Fire Phoenix, the daughter of Fire Demon Venerable.
These two people were hung in the air, and below them was a raging fire.
Demon Venerable sat next to them, barbecuing meat with a dagger in his hand. After it was half cooked, he put it into his mouth and chewed.
This meat all came from Suo Mo and Fire Phoenix.
Half of the meat on these two people was shaved off by Demon Venerable!
Lan Ling finally met Demon Venerable, who was known as a madman.
He looked very, very young, as if he was only in his thirties, but in fact, he was already in his eighties.
His face was very white, as if he had been brushed with plaster, and even his hair was completely white.
His lips were very red, red to purple, as if he had just drunk blood.
He looked very much like a monarch, very demonic, and gave off a feeling that made people tremble with fear.
Moreover, like Lan Ling, he also had double pupils.
However, Lan Ling's double pupils would not appear at the same time, but Demon Venerable's double pupils would appear at the same time, which was particularly strange.
"Lan Ling, right?" Demon Venerable got up to greet him warmly, then handed over the dagger with the meat and said, "I haven't finished this bite yet, there's still half left. Have a taste, the meat of Demon Venerable's daughter is very tender and fragrant. Suo Mo's meat is a bit old, but it's chewy. "
Lan Ling turned a blind eye to all this.
"You don't want to eat, then I'll enjoy it alone." Demon Venerable finished the remaining half of the meat, then cut a piece of meat from Suo Mo's body expressionlessly. One of his legs was almost left with white bones.
After cutting it, Demon Venerable stabbed it with the dagger and put it on the fire to roast.
Lan Ling still turned a blind eye and said, "Speak!"
"I heard that you've been calling him Uncle Suo Mo?" Demon Venerable said.
"Yes!" Lan Ling said.
Demon Venerable said, "I've heard about you, and I'm very interested in and admire you. How about this, I'll stand on your side? "
"Speak!" Lan Ling said.
Demon Venerable said, "You might find it strange that I didn't say anything when you killed Gutu. But this time, I inexplicably flipped out. This doesn't make sense, right? "
"Yes, what's the reason?" Lan Ling asked.
Demon Venerable said, "The Netherworld Prince came to the Thirteen Floors and tricked my people to attack your Flame Demon Flag. When I wasn't there, he took some people away, and my son secretly hid among them and went with them. Then, he was killed by the Tangs and turned into ashes. Not even his bones were left. "
No wonder this Demon Venerable went crazy and directly led people to attack Flame Demon City.
"If you want me to release Suo Mo and Fire Phoenix, it's very simple!" Demon Venerable said, "Do you see the dagger at the side? It's dark. "
Lan Ling looked at the dagger. It was just an ordinary black gold dagger.
Demon Venerable said, "Take the dagger and stab it into the Tang's chest, and I'll release Suo Mo and Fire Phoenix. I'm willing to make a Heavenly Demon Blood Oath."
Then, Demon Venerable stuck out his tongue and licked the dagger.
Blood immediately dripped onto the ground.
Demon Venerable knelt down and made a blood oath to heaven and earth.
"Don't worry, I'm definitely not as despicable and shameless as the Rakshasa King. He even dares to violate the Heavenly Demon Blood Oath. No wonder the Rakshasa Royal Family is about to be exterminated." Demon Venerable said, "As long as you stab this dagger into the Tang's chest, regardless of whether he dies or not, I'll release Suo Mo and Fire Phoenix. Moreover, I'll still stand on your side."
Young Rakshasa King said to Lan Ling, "Come on, this is a deal. Moreover, a mere dagger can't kill me."
Lan Ling picked up the dagger and gently played with it.
Demon Venerable said, "You must be very curious why I'm willing to stand on your side, right? Because I've observed your Death Warriors before. Guess who I saw? He saw Gu Tu's father, the Celestial Demon Monarch who was supposed to be dead. You can actually resurrect the dead and turn them into walking corpses, completely obeying your orders. This is the secret of your invincibility. This is the secret that allows you to defeat the Crown Prince of Tian Sha and take back Cloud Disaster Royal City, isn't it? "
Lan Ling said, "I didn't expect my greatest secret to be discovered by you."
Zhong Lou said, "Since you're so heaven-defying, I can stand on your side. Because in the future, you might really defeat the Heaven Killer King and become the ruler of the Demon Clan's territory. So, of course, I'm willing to stand on the winning side. "
"Are they only on my side?" Lan Ling asked. "Aren't they loyal to me?"
Zhong Lou said: "If you want me to be loyal to you, that's fine. When your cultivation surpasses me, of course I will be loyal to you. There's no hurry now. It's enough for me to stand on your side. What you need to do is very simple. Help my son take revenge. Just stab the dagger into the chest of the Young Rakshasa King Tang. Then, I'll let go of Suo Mo and the fire phoenix and stand on your side. "
The Young Rakshasa King Tang continued to smile and said, "Come, Lan Ling. You won't die anyway. This is a good deal."
Lan Ling continued to shake the dagger in his hand and said, "There was once a person whose father was captured by the enemy and was about to be cooked alive to force him to surrender. In the end, he said to the enemy, 'Don't forget to give me a share if you cook my father.' "
Zhong Lou said, "I haven't completely swallowed this piece of meat in my mouth. It's Suo Mo's meat. Why don't I spit out half of it and give it to you?"
"I'm not that kind of person. I despise that person called Liu Bang." Lan Ling said, "Of course, you don't know who Liu Bang is."
Zhong Lou said, "Alright, my patience is running out. You have to make a choice. Because I'm almost full, the next thing to eat is Suo Mo's heart. So, you have to hurry. If you want to save Suo Mo and the fire phoenix, stab the dagger into the Tang's chest. "
After saying that, he stood up and drew a circle on Suo Mo's heart with the dagger.
Young Rakshasa King Tang said, "If you can't do it, Lan Ling, I'll do it myself!"
After saying that, he came over to grab the dagger and was about to stab his own chest.
Lan Ling dodged and didn't let the Tang snatch the dagger. He walked directly in front of Zhong Lou and stabbed his heart.
"Puchi …" Blood splattered everywhere!
Then, Lan Ling said lightly, "Princess Na Xue, right? There's no need to act. Come out! "
