Capítulo 2142: Chapter 231: Little Demon Sovereign, So This Is Your Fate?
This figure was none other than the Little Demon Sovereign who had used the [Void Escape Symbol] to flee the battlefield.
Earlier, in order to counter the space fluctuations from the two Demonic God projections, he had expended many divine skills and secret techniques. Although he managed to barely hold them off for a moment, he still suffered significant injuries under the influence of those two powers of space. Coupled with the immense backlash from those divine skills and secret techniques, even though he escaped, he was still gravely injured.
After arranging a formation for concealment in the surrounding area, he nestled in a corner silently healing his wounds, but his heart was filled with anger and reluctance.
So close, just so close, and he could have achieved a shocking military achievement.
Why? Why was this happening? Why was his luck so bad?
However, with his God Sense impaired and his senses dulled, he failed to notice that while he was healing, at the other end of the canyon, a scout team led by a Demonic Clan Lord suddenly appeared.
This team crept through the canyon without making a single sound.
The leading Demonic Clan Lord had a slender build but was equipped with a giant nose.
Every time it led its troops a certain distance, it would use that giant nose to sniff the air, confirm the direction, and then continue leading its scouts forward.
This was a Demonic Clan Lord under the command of the Iron Bull Demon King’s Department of the Dragon Blood Demon God.
Named the [Demonic Rat Lord], its individual power wasn’t strong, but it was highly skilled in tracking and reconnaissance, with all its divine skills focused on these two aspects.
Under its leadership, this scout team quickly found the hiding place of the Little Demon Sovereign, surrounding him before he could even react.
“Kekeke~ Foolish creature, do you really think these simple concealment measures can escape the tracking of my Demonic Rat Lord?” The Demonic Rat Lord opened its sharp rat-like mouth, revealing its pointed teeth, laughing sharply and wildly, “The great Dragon Blood Demon God had already inferred your approximate landing point through the space fluctuation trajectories.”
The Little Demon Sovereign’s face turned cold, his heart sinking to the bottom.
He had to admit, whenever he went out, it was either with a large entourage of trusted aides or leading an entire army, with people handling every aspect for him, making him carefree. Although he had array flags capable of setting up a hidden formation, they were only the standard version and not the high-end military-grade ones, which weren’t necessarily sufficient in such an environment.
“Hehehe~” The Demonic Rat Lord’s bead-like eyes sparkled with excitement, and a greedy, blatant look appeared in its gaze as it stared at the Little Demon Sovereign, “We’re rich, we’re rich~ Catching this foolish creature, the Iron Bull Demon King will surely reward us handsomely.”
The Little Demon Sovereign struggled to rise.
However, as soon as the demonic qi began to circulate, he felt intense burning pain in his meridians, and his body was too weak to muster any strength. Even though he forced himself so hard that he broke out in cold sweat, all he could barely do was pick up the Demonic Sword.
The Demonic Rat Lord had no sympathy for his weakness, instantly ordering its subordinates to swarm forward with excitement.
The Little Demon Sovereign, at the end of his rope, fought desperately, consecutively slaying two Demonic Generals, yet he was still outnumbered. He was soon knocked down and pinned to the ground.
“You fool! You dare resist? I’ll have to eat a few pieces of your flesh first.” The Demonic Rat Lord, with overwhelming arrogance, stomped on his head angrily.
The Little Demon Sovereign was burning with rage, yet filled with sorrow and despair.
Thinking about his dignified title as Little Demon Sovereign, living a life of glory in the Real Demon Palace, always the center of attention when traveling, how had he ever suffered such humiliation?
And his power, easily handling a Demonic Clan Lord any other day, when would a small insignificant Lord dare to bully him?
Indeed, “a tiger fallen into a flatland is bullied by dogs.”
With his head being stepped on, face pressed to the ground, the Little Demon Sovereign recalled many things.
He thought of his parents and clan who had great expectations of him, and of the Demonic Lord Old Ancestor who held great expectations for him. He also remembered Palace Litu Old Palace, who died in battle just now to cover his escape.
He even thought of Wang Shouzhe, who was miles away.
Unwilling~! He had planned to settle matters here and then seek to settle scores with Wang Shouzhe, but he had misstepped, leading to such a downfall!
Just when the Little Demon Sovereign’s emotions were in turmoil, filled with anger and unwillingness, while the Demonic Rat Lord was about to draw a blade to cut his flesh.
Suddenly. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novel~fire~net
A terrifying pressure suddenly descended from the sky.
Simultaneously, a crescent-shaped half-immortal artifact blade emitting a formidable aura swiftly approached at an indescribably terrifying speed.
It seemed like a light breeze on a mountain, or a nimble willow leaf, so light and agile it was almost absurd, leaving a refreshing trail in the gray-black demonic fog as it swept across the sky.
In a flash of light and shadow, the Demonic Rat Lord’s head flew off, blood spraying everywhere.
The next moment, a figure gracefully descended, landing above the Little Demon Sovereign.
This figure had red hair and snow-white skin, with a graceful and alluring presence tinged with nobility, akin to a beautiful flower blooming in the snow, captivating one’s spirit.
The long wind sweeping across the heavens lifted her skirt, adding a touch of immortal aura to her.
This figure was none other than Ji Yueer.
It turned out that Wang Fugui had temporarily left the battlefield on urgent business, and while passing by in his flying carriage, gave a casual order to have Ji Yueer rescue the person.
This was the situation that just occurred.
As for that half-immortal curved blade, naturally it was temporarily lent to her by Wang Shouzhe before coming.
Looking at the miserable figure at her feet, Ji Yueer’s golden snake-like eyes showed a complex expression.
Once upon a time, this Little Demon Sovereign was like an invisible mountain, suffocating her. At that time, she couldn’t have dreamt that one day, the high and mighty Little Demon Sovereign could be in such a dismal state, could she?
“Shadow Snake Demonic Princess!”
The Little Demon Sovereign realized something amiss and quickly raised his head, instantly recognizing his savior.
His pupils contracted sharply, the intense shame making him wish he could crawl into a hole.
