Chapter 516 Flying Claw
Chapter 516 Flying Claw
After the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's questioning, the Demon King hesitated.
Chen Shengyuan and the other humans at the Great Perfection stage turned their heads slightly away, as if they were truly embarrassed.
Seeing this, Lang Wumiao sneered and said, "When the Demon Clan dealt with our three clans, how many tricks did they use to attack us from behind, kick us when we're down, and cheat us in secret?"
Now that you're in our hands, we've only conducted a body search; we haven't subjected you to severe torture or verbal abuse. This is already an act of leniency from our three clans.
Long Qi turned to look at the Dragon King, and seeing that his expression was normal, he approached the Blood Moon Demon Emperor and prepared to search him.
The Blood Moon Demon Emperor retreated again, his face full of shame and indignation, and said, "You are all righteous cultivators, and you, Demon King, are a dignified dragon and king of the demon race. How could you order your subordinates to do such a disgraceful thing that dishonors the majesty of an emperor and upholds righteousness?"
Seeing that the Blood Moon Demon Emperor refused to let Long Qi search him, Xu Zhenfeng became even more suspicious.
He walked up to the Demon King, leaned close to his ear, and whispered a few words to him.
Throughout this process, the Blood Moon Demon Emperor kept his eyes fixed on Xu Zhenfeng, his eyes filled with undisguised hatred that seemed to be overflowing with fire.
After hearing Xu Zhenfeng's words, the Demon King pulled Long Qi aside and actually wanted to personally search the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's body.
The old monk Wukong, who was standing to the side, also received a signal from Xu Zhenfeng. He didn't care about face or reputation, otherwise he wouldn't have argued so much with Huangjing Doll over a sip of wine.
They immediately stepped forward and, together with the Demon King, flanked the Blood Moon Demon Emperor, as if to forcibly search his body.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Fuzhi, a member of the Confucian school, felt that the scene was somewhat disgraceful to the orthodox traditions of the school and couldn't help but shake his head.
Chen Shengyuan and the other high-ranking cultivators from the Tianxuan Sect remained expressionless, except for Yan Jun, who looked eager to try.
He didn't intend to search the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's body to find any demonic artifacts or treasures.
Yama King only wanted to use the opportunity of searching the body to give Blood Moon Demon Emperor a hard time. Even if he had no choice but to let him return to the Demon Realm, he would not let him have an easy time.
However, Yama eventually calmed down. After all, he was Yama, the King of the Underworld. It was alright for his subordinates to do such things, but he couldn't do them himself. Otherwise, the entire Underworld would probably be ridiculed by the mortal world.
Yama turned and winked at one of his ghost kings.
The Ghost King immediately understood and quickly walked up to the Blood Moon Demon Emperor, ready to search the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's body together with the Demon King and the old monk Wukong.
The Blood Moon Demon Emperor retreated again, his face filled with even greater shame and anger. He scanned the humans, demons, and underworld spirits around him, and roared:
"You people have the nerve to call yourselves righteous? Don't forget you swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao to let me return to the Demon Realm. You dare to break your oath to the Heavenly Dao, what will be the consequences? You know the consequences."
"We didn't say we wouldn't let you go back. The oath we all swore to Heaven only said we would let you go back, not that we couldn't search your body. Is this Blood Moon Demon Emperor out of his mind?"
Huangjing Doll answered Blood Moon Demon Emperor's question crisply in Lang Wumiao's arms.
Just as Huang Jingwa finished speaking, the Blood Moon Demon Emperor suddenly turned his head to look at the little monster.
Xu Zhenfeng knew he was in trouble and immediately teleported to Lang Wumiao's side.
Suddenly, something resembling a grappling hook flew out from the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's chest and landed squarely on Xu Zhenfeng's shoulder, who was blocking Lang Wumiao's path.
Before Xu Zhenfeng could break free, the flying claw suddenly retracted, bringing him back to the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's grasp.
This happened so suddenly that in the blink of an eye, Xu Zhenfeng had already been captured by the Blood Moon Demon Emperor.
No one present—human, demon, or ghost—could have imagined that at this moment, the Blood Moon Demon Emperor would still be unwilling to part with any of his demonic artifacts and treasures, preferring to risk capturing a "hostage."
The Blood Moon Demon Emperor placed his palm on Xu Zhenfeng's lower back, directly opposite his dantian.
The grappling hook that flew out from his chest was still firmly gripping Xu Zhenfeng's shoulder.
The five black fingers of the grappling hook had already deeply penetrated the flesh of Xu Zhenfeng's shoulder, gripping his shoulder blade directly, and bright red demon blood was flowing down in a rush.
Lang Wumiao roared and threw the Yellow Essence Doll at Long Qi, who was already standing to the side. He then leaped forward with his demon sword, ready to chop down on the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's head.
"Do not move."
The Demon King quickly stopped Lang Wumiao.
At this moment, if the Blood Moon Demon Emperor exerted even a little force, Xu Zhenfeng's dantian would not only explode, but his entire body would burst into pieces of flesh and blood, and even a god would be unable to save him.
When Lang Wumiao was stopped by the Demon King, she immediately realized what was happening. She threw down the demon sword in her hand and said to the Blood Moon Demon Emperor, "Release him and we will not search you. Release him and leave immediately. We will not pursue you."
"Pursue them? Heh heh heh, do you dare? The oath of Heaven still stands."
But that little monster just now reminded me.
You did promise to let me return to the Demon Realm, but you didn't promise not to destroy my Demon Essence and let me return to the Demon Realm unharmed.
The body search is just an excuse for you.
So I need to bring a protective amulet too, after all, my Heavenly Oath didn't say I couldn't bring one, right?
After speaking, the Blood Moon Demon Emperor observed the expressions of the Demon King and Lang Wumiao, and then looked at the expressions of several human cultivators and Yama.
"I just don't know if my choice of amulet is good? I originally wanted to choose the one with the herbaceous little monster."
That little demon is exceptionally gifted and would be of great benefit to your demon race, human race, and even the underworld. It's just that this wolf demon himself came along.”
The flying claw that shot out from the Blood Moon Demon Emperor's chest pulled Xu Zhenfeng even closer to him, and the two demons were almost pressed together.
Xu Zhenfeng staggered, gritting his teeth to endure the sharp pain in his shoulder, and said, "Your Majesty, your life is the most important thing right now. If you take me with you, I'm afraid it will make your movements very inconvenient."
"If you're still worried, how about we make another oath to the Heavenly Dao, promising that our three races will allow you to return to the Demon Realm safely?"
