245: The miserable Demon Emperor Jue Peng!

Within the Void Realm of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The Masked Man sat cross-legged beside the Qiongqi King, slowly drifting above the Void Realm.

“We just dealt with the people from Demon Island, and not long after, a Demon Lord from the Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall arrived.”

“This truly is one wave after another.”

Having personally witnessed the Great Xia Dynasty's ability to stir up trouble, the Qiongqi King couldn't help but sigh with his ancient voice.

The Masked Man didn't even open his eyes, showing no signs of worry, and calmly said, “I just recruited two Devil Emperors as enforcers; it’s time for them to be put to use.”

“No need to exert yourself, just watch.”

The Qiongqi King heard him and said, “Indeed.”

… … … … …

Within the Great Xia Imperial City.

Demon Lord Jue Peng arrived at the Great Xia Imperial City in less than an hour.

Since he intended to visit openly, he did not hide his aura.

His actions also allowed Qian Sha and the two Devil Emperors to detect him as he approached the Great Xia Dynasty.

Wan Lei had also received orders and had been waiting on the city wall for a long time.

As soon as Demon Lord Jue Peng entered the city, he noticed Wan Lei's gaze.

Immediately after, his figure vanished from the street, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of Wan Lei, who was standing in the sky.

“Fellow Daoist, are you Chu Emperor’s person?”

Demon Lord Jue Peng’s tone was still somewhat polite.

They did not intend to easily antagonize the people of the Great Xia Dynasty before the matter was investigated clearly.

Wan Lei looked at his attitude and directly said, “My Your Majesty instructed me to wait for Fellow Daoist here.”

“May I ask, Fellow Daoist, what brings you to my Great Xia Dynasty?”

Demon Lord Jue Peng's expression remained unchanged: “Recently, two first-rate forces under my Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall were annihilated, and the culprit escaped into the Great Xia Dynasty and then disappeared without a trace.”

“I am here to ask Chu Emperor for help in apprehending the culprit for my Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall.”

Wan Lei had an “I see” expression and nodded: “So that’s it.”

“Since Fellow Daoist wishes to see my Your Majesty, then follow me.”

Wan Lei did not hesitate and directly led Demon Lord Jue Peng to the Imperial Palace.

Demon Lord Jue Peng also did not expect things to progress so smoothly.

Next, he would be able to see Chu Yun.

He would then probe him a bit to see if he could reveal any flaws.

… … …

Imperial Palace, main hall.

Chu Yun, Afuya, Heavenly Demoness, and Meng Ruxue were all seated at their positions.

Qian Sha stood beside Chu Yun, wearing a veil. Besides her, Guan Xun and Devil Emperor Ju Qi had already hidden themselves in the Void Realm of the hall, ready to act at any moment.

As long as Demon Lord Jue Peng entered this main hall, he would be walking into a trap with no chance of survival!

Demon Lord Jue Peng probably never imagined that Chu Yun had already arranged a grand “welcome ceremony” for him in this very hall!

Soon after, Wan Lei led Demon Lord Jue Peng into the main hall.

“Your Majesty, the person has been brought.”

“This is Demon Lord Jue Peng of the Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall.”

Wan Lei spoke proactively after entering the hall.

Demon Lord Jue Peng's gaze swept over the faces of the people in the hall, finally settling on Chu Yun.

Upon seeing Demon Lord Jue Peng, a hint of coldness flashed in Meng Ruxue's eyes.

Demon Lord Jue Peng did not notice her unusual reaction, his attention entirely focused on Chu Yun.

“I have long heard of Chu Emperor’s great name.”

“It is a pleasure to meet you today,” Demon Lord Jue Peng said calmly.

Chu Yun smiled. He did not show Demon Lord Jue Peng much courtesy and directly said, “Demon Lord Jue Peng, as a member of the Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall, your visit to my Great Xia today is undoubtedly due to the annihilation of your two first-rate forces, isn't it?”

Demon Lord Jue Peng listened to Chu Yun's words, and for some reason, he felt that there was something strange about them.

But he still responded with a rather serious expression: “That is correct. It seems Chu Emperor is also somewhat aware of this matter.”

“And that culprit, according to our investigation, disappeared without a trace after escaping into the Great Xia Imperial City.”

“Therefore, my Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall especially wishes to ask Chu Emperor for help in apprehending the true culprit for my Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall.”

Hearing this, Chu Yun still wore a meaningful smile: “Actually, there's no need for so much trouble.”

“Demon Lord, you can take a closer look and see who she is.”

At Chu Yun's signal, Qian Sha removed her veil, revealing her true face.

At the same time, her gaze met Demon Lord Jue Peng's.

“You!!”

“It's you!!!”

The moment Qian Sha's true face was revealed, Demon Lord Jue Peng's eyes sharply widened.

He immediately recognized that Qian Sha was the culprit they had been pursuing!

Seeing Qian Sha standing calmly and at ease beside Chu Yun, with the latter even smiling.

Immediately, Demon Lord Jue Peng realized.

This woman and Chu Yun were clearly in league.

“Chu Emperor, what is the meaning of this?”

“Today, you need to give this Emperor an explanation!”

Demon Lord Jue Peng’s tone instantly turned cold and hard, his gaze sharply fixed on Chu Yun and Qian Sha!

“An explanation?”

“If you want this Emperor to give you an explanation, you must first answer a question.”

“Speak!”

“What is the Destruction Demon Lord’s intention in wanting the Fire Phoenix Empress’s Demon Core?” Chu Yun’s tone suddenly turned cold and deep.

“Phoenix!”

“You… you did all this to avenge Hong Li?”

“What is your relationship with her?” Demon Lord Jue Peng also realized this crucial information at this moment.

Hong Li!

Could it be that this Fire Phoenix Empress, whose Demon Core was dug out, was the key to Chu Yun's targeting of their Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall?

“It seems you didn't listen to what this Emperor said.”

“Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say.”

“Do it.”

Chu Yun casually waved his hand.

Qian Sha's figure instantly surged forward, a palm strike condensing an extremely terrifying cold Qi, accompanied by the power of the Law of Heaven and Earth, striking towards Demon Lord Jue Peng.

“Just you?!”

Demon Lord Jue Peng coldly shouted. How could his Great Emperor Realm fourth-heaven cultivation possibly take a Great Emperor Realm first-heaven woman seriously?

Just as he was about to mobilize the Law of Heaven and Earth within his body and manifest his true Demon Peng form…

Buzz buzz buzz…

At the spot where he stood, four black Devilish Qi vortices suddenly appeared, and from a Void Realm rift, countless Devil Chrysanthemums emerged.

The Devil Chrysanthemums released illusionary Law that blocked the senses, causing Demon Lord Jue Peng's consciousness to fall into a stagnant state.

The four black Devilish Qi vortices simultaneously shot out four Devilish Chains, their tips as sharp as arrows, firing out one after another.

Swoosh swoosh…

Four Devilish Chains pierced through Demon Lord Jue Peng's body, imprisoning him in place.

His consciousness was still in a state of delusion, and Qian Sha caught up, heavily striking Demon Lord Jue Peng's chest with her palm.

In an instant, a large amount of cold Qi Law entered his body, freezing all the power in Demon Lord Jue Peng's Meridians.

Coupled with the effect of the Devilish Chains, Demon Lord Jue Peng couldn't even muster a single trace of strength!

At this moment, his stagnant consciousness was broken through by his Soul.

But after regaining his senses, Demon Lord Jue Peng's expression changed dramatically in horror.

He found himself already in Qian Sha's hands.

The power within his body had been frozen and Seal, completely incapacitated!

“Demon Emperor Juqi!!”

“It’s you two fellows!!”

“How are you in the Great Xia Dynasty?!!!”

Demon Lord Jue Peng demanded in a hoarse voice, his eyes wide with rage.

Devil Emperor Guan Xun and Devil Emperor Ju Qi were often inseparable.

So others gave them a combined nickname: Demon Emperor Juqi!

It included 'Ju' from Devil Emperor Ju Qi and 'Guan' from Devil Emperor Guan Xun.

Furthermore, because Devil Emperor Ju Qi's spells were all related to chrysanthemums, he was named after it.

Devil Emperor Guan Xun and Devil Emperor Ju Qi also emerged from the Void Realm at this moment.
