Chapter 37: The Return of the Overlord (Part II)
"Father, why is everything my brother doing is right, and everything I am doing is wrong?" Shi Xiong's self-esteem was badly hurt, and he turned against him.
"Is Wufeng Mountain so easy to capture? If the Immortals were so vulnerable, I would have eradicated them decades ago, and it would not have been your turn to strike. ”
"But I'm almost on the verge of success." Shi Xiong argued.
"But in the end you didn't make it, did you?"
"Father, don't always envy others and belittle your own majesty. With just a handful of poison from me, the immortals will succumb to my feet. Shi Xiong said proudly.
"You actually used poison?" Demon Venerable asked rhetorically.
"That's right, I bribed one of their cooks to put poison into their food, and they were all poisoned."
"Bastard, do you think poisoning them will make the Immortals belong to us?"
Shi Xiong didn't know the intention of the Demon Venerable, and was frightened and didn't dare to answer.
"Do you know how many immortal immortals there are in the Immortal Clan? How powerful are they? They have mastered the art of bringing the dead back to life. Damn it! , you guy who ruined my plans. Demon Venerable roared hoarsely at Shi Xiong.
Shi Xiong thought that his actions would be praised by the Demon Venerable, but he did not expect that not only did he not receive praise, but also incurred the wrath of the Demon Venerable.
Shi Xiong stood silently in place, listening to the Demon Venerable's scolding.
"Father, my brother is also for your good, so don't blame him anymore." Shi Ba hurriedly interceded for Shi Xiong.
Seeing Shi Ba interceding for Shi Xiong, Demon Zun said to Shi Xiong, "You can go." ”
Shi Xiong was about to leave, when he suddenly spoke: "Father, I am telling the truth. That Huang Li is really powerful, you should be careful of his plate axe the next time you meet him. ”
"What? It turned out to be Huang Li who defeated you? This news really made the Demon Venerable unbelievable.
"That's right, Your Excellency. He was armed with a plate axe, which seemed to be an artifact of our demons, where had I seen it. ”
"Plate axe?"
"I remember, Your Excellency. It was exactly the same as the previous Demon Venerable. Shi Xiong affirmed.
"How did you find out?" Demon Venerable's voice trembled slightly.
"I saw it on a painting."
"Isn't he dead? Why don't you come to me personally? The Demon Venerable muttered to himself.
"Your Excellency, what are you talking about?" Shi Xiong couldn't hear clearly.
"It doesn't matter, you two stand down."
"Yes, Father." Shi Xiong and Shi Ba retreated at the same time.
After the two left, the Demon Venerable was deep in thought.
It was a strange day that the two things that worried him the most were intertwined.
He has more affection for Shi Ba than his own son Shi Xiong, but I heard that Shi Ba is quite similar to Huang Li, and Huang Li is Shi Ba's own brother. If the two meet in the future, it will inevitably cause suspicion, not to mention that Shi Ba now has amnesia, but Huang Li is not. The Demon Venerable had annihilated all the murderers who participated in the murder of Huang Benchu's family, but the Immortal Clan still survived, especially Zhao Wuji and Huang Li. As long as Huang Li is alive, this secret will eventually be exposed.
Huang Li must get rid of it quickly, no matter what the cost.
What worried the Demon Venerable even more was that the former Demon Venerable's plate axe reappeared, and it actually appeared in Huang Li's hand. This means that the previous Demon Venerable may still be alive, and there seems to be an inexplicable connection with Huang Lijian.
Demon Venerable Shi Ji's heart fell into chaos, and it was difficult to be at peace.
These two questions became a pain in his heart.
"Hurry up and send Su Protector!" Demon Venerable shouted outward.
A moment later, a man dressed in green clothes walked into the main hall and saluted the Demon Venerable.
"Protector Su, please come in." Demon Venerable said.
The messenger of Tsing Yi, Su Renda, stepped into the Rich Demon Palace and knelt down at the foot of the steps.
"Su Protector, please get up."
Su Renda stood up and stood sideways.
"Protector Su, I have a secret mission to entrust to you."
"Your Excellency."
"You go and deal with someone for me."
"Who's the target?" Su Renda asked.
"There is a young man in the Immortal Clan, named Huang Li." Demon Venerable Dao.
"Huang Li?" Su Renda was taken aback.
"You know him?" Demon Venerable asked.
"Yes, I fought him before, he has a plate axe in his hand, he is really powerful, I am not an opponent." Su Renda said frankly.
"You're no match for him?"
"Yes, I may be able to handle his immortal power, but what I am most afraid of is the plate axe in his hand."
As soon as he lifted the plate axe, Demon Venerable's heart couldn't help but tremble.
"This task is up to you, no matter what, be sure to eliminate him, but it must be kept secret." Demon Venerable commanded.
Su Renda had never seen the Demon Venerable so anxious, and this was since following the Demon Venerable.
"Yes." Su Renda turned and left.
After the Demon Venerable waited for Su Renda to leave, he stroked his beard carefully, and sighed in his heart, time was like an arrow, fleeting.
Huang Li came down from Wufeng Mountain alone, not knowing where to go, walking alone.
Suddenly, he felt hungry.
Huang Li remembered that he seemed to have not enjoyed a delicious meal for several years, and when he was at the bottom, his predecessor Demon Venerable had picked wild fruits for him to fill his stomach, and when he was a little better, he could also taste the delicious rabbit meat cooked by his old man.
