The Divine Martial Stars

Chapter 992 The Dragon King Society

Thank you readers!

It was no exaggeration to say that Constellation Demon Mountain was a lawless place.

Its geographical location was extremely special. It was at the intersection of the Human Clan, the devil races, and the extraterritorial demon race. It didn’t belong to any one of the three parties. It was taken as the buffer zone of the three great forces, covering an area of tens of thousands of kilometers and belonging to the terrain of the mountain range.

It was said that a meteorite fell from the sky and smashed into the boundless plain. The broken parts of the meteorite connected with each other and formed an endless mountain range.

Its name came from that.

After this mountain range formed for a long period of time, this place was barren. No plants grew here, and even wild beasts and devil beasts were scarce. It was a place enveloped by the aura of death.

Thousands of years ago, a group of devils was hunted down by major forces. They had no choice but to settle down on Constellation Demon Mountain and survive the disaster. Then, they began to recruit forces and attracted more and more criminals, fugitives, and exiles. Slowly, they built a city underground.

After that, more and more experts in martial art gathered. Good and evil people mixed up, and there were various kinds of people from different sides. After thousands of years, a new force, called the Dragon King Society, was established. Its strength was far beyond that of the ordinary Holy Lands of martial art, which made the other parties look up to it.

The Constellation Demon Mountain in the middle of the cold season was covered with ice and snow. It became an extremely cold world only suitable for the experts in the martial art to live. There was no World Tree. Ordinary people below the General Realm would be frozen into ice dregs in less than a second on the surface environment of the Constellation Demon Mountain.

Although there were some cold-proof measures in the underground city, people had to be at least in the Soldier Realm to survive.

At this time, Li Mu was sitting in the window seat on the second floor of a restaurant in the underground city of the Constellation Demon Mountain. But he also felt a chill.

It was very cold here.

“Nowadays, the force governing Constellation Demon Mountain is called the Dragon King Society, and the big dragon head is called the Crazy Dragon Roaring. He is a Crazy Wu who even dares to provoke great emperors. He acts wildly and doesn’t care about the consequences. He is also the number-one expert in Constellation Demon Mountain. His strength is extremely high, and he is known as the number one person below the great emperors. Under him, there are four other leaders, all of whom are old demons with terrifying strength. Coupled with the countless devils attached to this place, this city can be said to be one of the darkest places in the entire Chaotic World. Therefore, when you take action in Constellation Demon Mountain, you can’t do things at your will.”

The Green Ox sat opposite Li Mu and told him the origin of Constellation Demon Mountain in a low voice. Finally, he deliberately warned Li Mu not to be impatient again.

The young man in black, Liuyun Wuxin, concealed all his aura and stood upright like a javelin. Concentrating on Li Mu, he was expressionless and stood quietly behind Li Mu.

He was dressed as a servant, holding a scabbard in his arms, which contained the divine broadsword called Ice and Snow given by the First Sword of the Liuyuns. On his back was a sword box, in which was a famous sword named Fleeting Time.

This sword was a divine weapon borrowed by Li Mu from the Sanctuary of the Way before he set off. It was said that it was one of the spoils of the Sanctuary of the Way. Five hundred years ago, a master of the Sanctuary of the Way killed a demon and obtained it. He handed it over to the arsenal. Now, it became Li Mu’s temporary weapon.

The three of them disguised themselves. They had stayed at the underground city of Constellation Demon Mountain for a day.

Li Mu pretended to be an exiled swordsman.

Liuyun Wuxin was his servant.

And Green Ox pretended to be his friend.

They did this to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Fortunately, the underground city of the Constellation Demon Mountain was originally a place where good and evil people had mixed up. As the ruler, the Dragon King Society didn’t investigate people who came in and out. The outsiders only needed to pay enough fairy crystals to get in.

“Are you sure that my friend’s souls are stored in the divine weapon Heavenly Exclamation?” Li Mu tapped his fingers gently on the table and confirmed again.

The Green Ox said with a smile, “This is the third time that you’ve asked this question since you knew the news. Don’t worry. The news is conclusive and absolutely correct. Every year on the fifteenth day of the third month of the cold season, the Dragon King Society will hold a grand auction to sell stolen goods from all over the continent. The divine weapon Heavenly Exclamation was originally a famous weapon of the devil races. Later, after several rounds of auctions, it circulated among different experts. Its last owner was called Feng Wuhen, a high-ranking and powerful figure of the devil races. A year ago, an unknown thing happened, and he was suddenly killed. The entire Wind Clan was wiped out, so the Heavenly Exclamation was lost. It was not until a month ago that the notice of the auction for stolen things was released that all parties knew that this divine weapon had been brought here and was on the auction list.”

“The auction will start in three days, right?” Li Mu asked again.

The Green Ox looked at Li Mu as if he didn’t know Li Mu. He sighed and said helplessly, “I guess this girl named Wang Shiyu should be your lover.”

Li Mu looked at the Green Ox.

The Green Ox spread out his hands and said, “Don’t look at me like that. I don’t like to gossip in daily life, but your performance is too abnormal. Everything else is not shocking to you. But when you hear something about the whereabouts of this girl’s souls and psyches, you are nervous.”

Li Mu rubbed his temples, nodded, and casually admitted, “Yes, she is one of the most important people in my life. I came to the chaotic world for her.”

“A bitter love story, right? Ah, it’s really enviable.” Seeing the people coming and going on the street outside the window, the Green Ox seemed to think of some stories.

After a long while, he looked away and said, “To be honest, there are still three days left. The scenery here is definitely beyond your imagination. Let’s take a walk in the underground city and relax. Don’t be too tense. It’s not good for you.”

Li Mu nodded.

He was indeed a little impatient.

When he first came to the underground city of Constellation Demon Mountain, he planned to sneak into the place where the Dragon King Society stored the items and find the Heavenly Exclamation in advance. He wanted to put Wang Shiyu’s souls directly into the rusted sword and quietly leave.

Anyway, he was not going to steal a divine weapon. It was not a big deal.

But after hearing the Green Ox’s serious words, he knew this plan was not feasible.

Not to mention whether he could successfully sneak into the heavily guarded auction house of the Dragon King Society, even if he could sneak in, once he was found, he would be in big trouble. In that case, he could not save Wang Shiyu’s souls and would have to die.

Therefore, it was safer to wait for the auction to start and directly buy the Heavenly Exclamation in the way of the auction.

After they ate up a table of nutritious food, the Green Ox went to do something else alone. Li Mu walked out of the restaurant and wandered aimlessly on the streets of the underground city.

When civilization of the martial art developed to a certain extent, it could create miracles in buildings beyond the technological civilization. At least, this vast underground city really widened Li Mu’s horizon.

The underground city had a radius of hundreds of kilometers and was located in a huge underground space. The stone wall between the stone wall and the ground was about a thousand meters high.

Over a hundred Zhao Lamps were floating in the sky above the city.

The Zhao Lamp was a great invention of martial arts alchemy. It provided light for the whole city according to the time. It was extremely delicate. It could even change between the sun mode and the moon mode, providing sunlight and moonlight, just like the living world outside. Even if the city was more than two thousand meters away from the ground, people living in this city didn’t feel depressed.

The streets were bustling with people and carriages.

To Li Mu’s great surprise, the so-called center of criminals, the paradise of demons, and the underground city at the source of darkness seemed to be in good order.

Walking on the street, Li Mu looked around.

He saw pedestrians bargaining with vendors. Customers were discussing with the owners smiling. The waiters welcomed and sent away different people. Elders waved their whips to drive the strange beasts pulling the carts. Li Mu also saw creatures from different races wearing different styles of clothes and communicating in different accents.

It was a prosperous scene and made it difficult for others to associate it with evil.

But Li Mu knew in his heart that this was just an illusion.

Those creatures that looked like ordinary people were not ordinary.

For example, the kind-hearted old lady selling plain noodles at the corner of the street might be a ghost grandmother who had once wiped out a whole family. The artiste waving her sleeves at the door of the brothel might be a female demon who had killed countless people. The waiter who welcomed and sent off the guests might be a cold-blooded assassin who had assassinated a high-ranking figure. Even the naughty child playing with the dog on the side of the road might have a strong background. And the dog he played with was definitely not simple.

Everyone in this city might have a bloody story. They came here in desperation.

Such a good order was only superficial.

When Li Mu arrived at the eastern region of the city, he saw a massacre end there. The members of the Dragon King Society had dragged away dozens of bodies of the dead party in the duel like dragging pigs. The next slaughter duel was about to begin.

The slogan of the Dragon King Society was that as long as you abided by their rules, you could get everything you wanted in this city.

And their rules were simple.

People were not allowed to destroy the buildings in the city. They should do things in the corresponding area.

The eastern region of the city was a place for revenge and killing. People died miserably all the time.

The western region was a place to sell stolen goods. Every day, unscrupulous stolen goods from all over the world would gather in the underground city of the Constellation Demon Mountain. These so-called stolen goods could be divine weapons and precious sets of armor, martial arts books, or immortal resources. They might also sell the Virgin Goddess of a big sect, the daughter of a lord of a Holy Land, the concubine or the only son of a big shot in the Military, the prince of the devil races, the little king of the beast clan, or other creatures. Once arriving here, the buyers could trade with the sellers with ease and be protected by the Dragon King Society. They didn’t have to worry about being hunted by the original owners.

The southern region was a place to entertain. There were no services that the place could not provide. Among them, gambling houses and brothels were the most. There were many kinds of extremely luxurious places to spend money, which could make you enjoy unimaginable happiness and service. Of course, it could also make rich people lose their freedom and become poor in a day.

The northern region was a place to hire killers. As long as people can pay enough money or other things with corresponding prices, the most dangerous and terrible killers, old demons, and schemers in the underground city will serve them and help them achieve their wishes.

Except for the four regions, most of the other places of the city had serious business.

After Li Mu finished shopping in the eastern region, the light emitted by the Zhao Lamps in the sky began to cool down.

This meant that it was night.

Lights lit up everywhere on the streets.

Unconsciously, Li Mu came to the western region.

As soon as he arrived, he encountered a bustling scene.

“Hey, come and have a look. The new business group of the Shadow Temple has arrived. I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with the latest goods.” Someone shouted.

He saw dozens of carriages pulled by Thunderbolt Beasts slowly entering the western region.

There were a large number of goods in the carriage. In the front one, there was a large-scale alchemy cage, in which dozens of beautiful women in gauze were imprisoned. They had excellent looks and temperaments and were all popular. They were frightened and angry, shivering like helpless little beasts. Obviously, they were caught by the Shadow Temple, which was called the Dark Hunter Group, by some shady means.

“Poor girls.”

Someone sighed.

Li Mu glanced at these women casually and suddenly narrowed his eyes.

He saw a familiar face.
