96: Chapter 96 The Frosty Northern State, Leaving the Demon Court

"I'll speak, I'll speak! Big Brother, stop squeezing. If you squeeze any harder, I'm really going to die."

"Since you've swallowed Guzhaya, you must have learned about the origins of Yuan Xi. We are the Extraterrestrial Demon Race."

"It's just that when we arrived in the Nine Provinces, we were discovered by your Nine Provinces Great Emperor."

"He used his own emperor fruit to seal Yuan Xi and the other six demons in various places across the Nine Provinces."

"I don't know about the others, but the place where Yuan Xi is sealed is in the Extreme North Hanling Province."

"Big Brother, I've said everything I can; can you let me go now?" the little black figure pleaded.

"Let you go? When did I say I would let you go?" Chu Chen said. Then, his Demonic Power manifested and instantly entered the little black figure's body.

"Don't resist, otherwise you'll die." Chu Chen said lightly, his scarlet pupils fixed on the little black figure.

"This... this supreme Demonic Power... how is this possible?"

"A native of the Nine Provinces, yet his Demonic Power is actually stronger than Master Yuan Xi's. This is simply incredible."

The little black figure exclaimed, but a moment later, its eyes changed.

It said respectfully, "Master!!"

"By the way, what kind of thing are you?" Chu Chen asked.

The little black figure said respectfully, "Replying to Master, I am a split soul refined from Yuan Xi. I have no attack power, but I can break through seals and move about the Nine Provinces."

"Yuan Xi has been awake for thousands of years; it was only to find a way to break through that he refined me."

"So that's how it is. It seems that apart from breaking through seals and helping Yuan Xi scout the Nine Provinces, you are of no use at all!!"

Upon hearing this, the little black figure said, "Master, I am useful! I am definitely useful! I am, after all, a split soul of Yuan Xi, and I still have some influence over him."

"If Master takes action against Yuan Xi, I can suppress his strength by ten percent."

After saying this, the little black figure looked at Chu Chen nervously.

Chu Chen looked at the little black figure and smiled evilly, "That is indeed somewhat useful, so I will spare your life."

Hearing this, the little black figure breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Master, for sparing my life."

Afterwards, Chu Chen put the little black figure into his Small World.

The Underworld has since disappeared, and this Yuan Xi is in the Extreme North Hanling Province. Since he wanted to understand this Extraterrestrial Demon Race...

He must seek out three saints; after all, he has to put on a good show.

Thinking of this, Chu Chen had an idea. Of the six saints who attacked him three years ago, besides Huang Huayu of the Wuji Holy Land, whom he had killed...

The other five were from the Qianyuan Holy Land, Hualing Sect, Chongshan Holy Land, Lingdao Sect, and Qianhuan Holy Land.

"Aren't there three saints right there? Plus two more." Chu Chen's mouth curled into an evil smile.

The Demon Court has integrated the entire Demonic Mist Forest Sea, and now it is not inferior to any Holy Land.

However, in terms of true foundation, the Demon Court has existed for too short a time.

These people are not afraid of the Demon Court, but of him. His battle against six saints alone and his killing of a saint from the Wuji Holy Land had spread like wildfire across the Nine Provinces.

Otherwise, how could these forces have tolerated him obtaining the Great Emperor's Inheritance?

Since he is going to leave the Demon Court for a while, he naturally has to leave some defenses behind.

The ten thousand demons immortal devouring sword broke through space and appeared before Chu Chen's eyes.

The Indestructible Sword Intent condensed from his brow and poured into the ten thousand demons immortal devouring sword.

"Clang."

The next moment, a sword hum sounded.

The ten thousand demons immortal devouring sword turned into a black demonic light and shot straight up, hovering above the Demon Court.

Terrifying Demonic Power radiated from the sword, instantly manifesting into a demon dragon that blotted out the sky, circling above the Demon Court.

For a time, all the disciples and countless elders in the Demon Court looked up.

"What is that? Such a terrifying aura. Beneath it, I feel like an ant—not even an ant."

"Could it be an external enemy attacking the Demon Court?" a disciple said in horror.

However, no sooner had he said this than a slap landed hard on his face, knocking him to the ground.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What external enemy? This is the demon dragon summoned by the Demon Lord to protect the Demon Court, you fool!"

"Besides, with the Demon Lord here, who would dare to attack the Demon Court? If you speak such nonsense again, see if I don't eat you in one bite!" Chu Long said arrogantly from the side.

"Yes, yes, yes, Elder Chu Long is right. I will never dare to do it again."

Now that Chu Chen had become the Demon Lord, his status had risen as well, even though he was only at the First Level of Sendai.

But powerful experts like Xiang Nantian and Xue Huazi, who were at the Ninth Level of Sendai, had to call him Brother Long.

At this moment, Xiang Nantian and Xue Huazi looked at the demon dragon in the sky with solemn eyes.

"If I were to face the aura emitted by this demon dragon, I fear it could crush me into powder in an instant," Xiang Nantian sighed.

Hearing this, Xue Huazi also said, "Doesn't this just show that the Demon Lord's strength is incomparably powerful? Joining the Demon Court was the best choice."

"Xue Huazi, you didn't think so at first. Didn't you regret that your Corpse Blood Sect, with its thousands of years of heritage, was gone just like that?" Xiang Nantian laughed.

"Xiang Nantian, don't talk like that. My admiration for the Demon Lord is like a surging river, endless and unstoppable."

"You really know how to flatter!" Xiang Nantian looked at Xue Huazi with disgust.

The next moment, their expressions changed, and they immediately knelt on one knee, their faces serious and respectful, "We pay respects to the Demon Lord."

Following this, all the disciples of the Demon Court were surprised.

"This is the legendary Demon Lord!"

In an instant, all the disciples knelt on the ground and shouted in unison, "We pay respects to the Demon Lord."

"Hmm," Chu Chen nodded, then said, "I need to go out for a while. You two follow me."

"Yes, we will obey the Demon Lord's orders and follow him."

Afterwards, Chu Chen looked at Chu Long, "Come here."

Chu Long saw this and immediately ran towards Chu Chen, looking happy, "Master, do you want me to follow too?"

Chu Chen shook his head, "You are only at the First Level of Sendai; it's useless for you to follow me. Just watch over the Demon Court."

Hearing this, Chu Long looked embarrassed and said, "Yes, I will definitely watch over the Demon Court and will not let Master down."

However, he thought to himself, No, I must improve my cultivation quickly. With Master here, the Demon Court will definitely become the hegemon of the Nine Provinces in the future.

I must cling to this thigh tightly; otherwise, I will be surpassed by these latecomers, and I won't be able to get by in this Demon Court in the future.

"Xiao Hei!" Chu Chen called out.

The next moment, Xiao Hei appeared before Chu Chen, his eyes cold, his voice low, "Young Master, here are the specific locations and combat strengths of the five Holy Lands."

Then, Xiao Hei respectfully took out a jade cocoon and handed it to Chu Chen.

Chu Chen put away the jade cocoon, "Good. Remember what I told you."

"Young Master, don't worry. Even if I die, Xiao Hei will complete the task you have entrusted to me."

Chu Chen nodded slightly, then took Xiang Nantian and Xue Huazi, broke through space, and left the Demon Court.
