I Possessed a Demon Sovereign

Chapter 31

The silver snake on Young Lady Snake’s wrist seemed to be small and unassuming, but those massive spirit beasts were all docile in front of the silver snake.

Those spirit beasts that got near the Demon Cult army started listening to the silver snake’s orders. They changed their direction and started clashing with the beast wave that was coming from far away.

The spirit beasts that were farther away were also becoming restless due to the influence of the silver snake. However, these spirit beasts were still complying with the commands of the Rat King Duobu Jie and that mysterious Sacred Rat. They were still intending to attack the Demon Cult army.

As such, one wave was rushing outwards, while one wave was rushing inwards. The two beast waves then abruptly clashed. In just a split second, the entire place was drenched in blood.

Beast blood fell from the sky like rain and formed pools of foul blood on the ground.

The battle between the two sides had immediately reached a climax. The beast wave from far away suddenly separated into two sides, opening up a path. Immediately after, a herd of rats started rushing through the path.

These rats were gigantic in size. They were all the size of calves. Their pitch-black fur were like thick and solid iron spikes. They were ferocious-looking, like malicious devils. They ran with the extreme agility and speed of the wind, and were like thunderbolts.

The other spirit beasts would quickly avoid these giant rats when they encountered them. The giant rats let out a call, and they were enveloped in black mists that were dense and wouldn’t scatter. They were just like dark and ominous moving clouds.

Seeing the situation, Young Lady Snake smiled and didn’t have a change in expression. The silver snake on her wrist let out a sharp and ear-piercing hiss. Subsequently, on the Demon Cult side, a hundred giant black shadows emerged from the surface of the ground.

These were black-scaled giant snakes that raised up their upper bodies. They might not be as gigantic as those flood dragons that were pulling the Demon Sovereign’s carriage, but each giant snake would look like a small hill if they coiled up.

The darting of their forked tongues let out loud hissing sounds. The scales on the giant snakes opened up and released green mist. Wherever the green mist extended to, the black mist would instantly disperse.

The black-scaled giant snakes were violently lunging at the herd of rats. Even with their massive bodies, the giant snakes were as fast as lightning and were much more agile and nimble as compared to those giant rats.

In terms of numbers, the giant rats were far more than the giant snakes. They swarmed over with their dreadful presence.

However, these black-scaled giant snakes weren’t planning to prey on each rat individually. The large bloody mouths of the giant snakes opened up, and there was an immense suction force coming from within, as they turned into abysses.

There were streaks of blood qi that came out from these abysses, and they were like chains that flew everywhere before curling around the giant rats. The calf-sized giant rats immediately staggered as they were rolled up by the chains made with blood qi.

The blood qi withdrew and pulled those giant rats into the mouths of the black-scaled giant snakes. Each giant snake would capture multiple giant rats at once before dragging them into their mouths.

However, the herd of rats were ferocious and completely fearless. They surged over like a tidal wave. There were many rats that didn’t get captured by the blood qi from the snakes’ mouths. They pounced and tore at the giant snakes.

The giant snakes’ scales were extremely tough, and the rats’ fangs weren’t able to penetrate them. However, there was green fluid dripping from the giant rat’s mouth. When those fluids dripped onto the scales, white smoke was immediately emitted with a sizzling sound.

The black-scaled giant snakes were in pain as their massive bodies thrashed. They swung the giant rats off their bodies before crushing them into pulps of flesh.

The mountains of Qian Prefecture had turned into bloody Asura battlegrounds because of the giant snakes and rats. With them at the center, the two beast waves clashed and created a shocking massacre.

On the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage, Zhang Tianheng bowed to Chen Luoyang and said, “The noisy activities and filthy scene might not be nice to Cult Master’s discerning eyes, but I guarantee that it will end soon.”

On appearance, it was indeed Young Lady Snake that had the upper hand. The Demon Cult’s beast wave didn’t just stop the opposition’s advance, it started to push back the opposing beast wave!

“No matter, it is a rather good entertainment after the meal,” Chen Luoyang tapped on the armrest and said indifferently.

Actually, he was busy observing the movements of the black pot inside his mind. The beasts slaughtered each other, and there was a massive number of deaths. However, the blood-red serum within the black pot didn’t increase at all.

Must it be human lives…?

Chen Luoyang frowned inwardly.

During the battle between the Demon Cult and the Golden Summit at the Shu Prefecture, Chen Luoyang observed the black pot then too. When the spirit beasts perished, the blood-red serum didn’t increase, and it would only increase when humans perished. The higher the cultivation stage of the deceased was, the greater the increase in blood-red serum.

Chen Luoyang recalled the moment he killed that Other Tribe assassin with his shout earlier. The fourth ranker of the Ten Gallants, Black Owl Er Hanke.

The 10th Intent Congeal Stage martial king was personally killed by Chen Luoyang. The increase in blood-red serum was actually more than when Law King Huijue died at Amrita Manor.

Law King Huijue was a martial king at the 11th Apotheosis Stage, and his cultivation stage was higher than Black Owl’s.

From the looks of it, when I personally kill someone, the increase of blood-red serum would be much more.

Chen Luoyang sighed silently.

This strange black pot is truly a cardinal artifact of the demon dao…

He sorted out his mind before he continued to observe the great battle between the snakes and the rats.

Under the command of Young Lady Snake, her beast army had turned the tide completely.

On the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage, Xiao Yuntian said, “It is hard to say about individual strength, but in terms of the command of beasts, Tianheng’s Young Lady Snake is definitely superior to the Other Tribe’s Rat King.”

Chen Luoyang nodded secretly in response.

The branches of the Demon Cult did have plenty of talented individuals. The Qian Prefecture that was governed by Wang Dubao had its own specialty too. It wasn’t like the Dian Prefecture’s Bird, Speech, Flower, Fragrance, Snake, Insect, Rat, Ant, where all Eight Joss Masters had their own specialty, but the Qian Prefecture had trained dozens of Mountain Shifting Golden Apes.

These apes were massive, like small mountains, and had dreadful strength and speed. If they were all here, these snakes and rats wouldn’t be a match for them even working together. The only shortcoming was the fixed activity area of the Mountain Shifting Golden Apes.

As of now, Wang Dubao and his men weren’t able to tame the apes to the extent that they were willing to leave their territory. As such, they could only rely on those big fellows to protect the foundation of the branch. It was why they couldn’t be brought along as a combat force during the battle at Shu Prefecture.

Otherwise, when Wang Dubao and his men were surrounded and assaulted by the Other Tribe experts, with those Mountain Shifting Golden Apes to assist, even if they couldn’t defeat the enemy, they wouldn’t lose so miserably.

When Zhang Tianheng heard Xiao Yuntian’s approval, he said proudly, “My people naturally wouldn’t be inferior.”

Vajra laughed and said, “She is really your people. I heard that you have taken care of her even in bed?”

Zhang Tianheng replied, “She is very special. I like this kind of woman.”

Vajra then took a glance at Speech Fairy and Madam Fragrance.

Speech Fairy had ordinary looks and mediocre standards; she didn’t have any reactions and was quietly standing in place.

Madam Fragrance had charming eyes and seductive looks. When she saw Vajra sizing her up, she covered her lips and let out a flirtatious laugh. “Protector rejected me, and I am not as pampered as Sister Snake. Sir Vajra must help this servant to reason things out.”

Zhang Tianheng twitched his mouth and said, “You aren’t lacking any intimate encounters. Why act so pitiful?”

He then looked at Vajra. “Don’t use such eyes to look at me. I do not have such hobbies. Do you think I am that Old Wang?”

Vajra laughed and said, “Old Wang is only a little bolder on matters that are related to women.”

“What do you think?” Zhang Tianheng made a spitting sound and said, “There is nothing to say about an uninhabited place like this. But in those densely populated large cities of the Qian Prefecture, I can splash a pail of water and drench two of Old Wang’s fathers-in-law.”

Xiao Yuntian said, “The two of you better exercise some restraint in front of Cult Master.”

Zhang Tianheng and Vajra immediately kept quiet in response.

Chen Luoyang didn’t have any expressions, as though he didn’t care about this matter at all. However, his heart was already numbed.

As expected of the Demon Cult…

As the group was having a conversation, the opposing beast wave had been pushed back by the beast wave tamed by Young Lady Snake. The Demon Cult army had resumed their advance.

However, as they traveled, Chen Luoyang felt that something was off. Xiao Yuntian, Zhang Tianheng, and the others had also detected it.

“Snake, come back.” Zhang Tianheng immediately yelled out.

Just as Young Lady Snake was feeling worried, there was surging black smoke that rose up in the surrounding mountains and spread out in all directions. The black smoke had covered the horizon, and it was impossible to see the boundaries. The black smoke was spreading even further.

An extremely ominous and dangerous presence was emitting from the black smoke.
