166: Out of the tiger's den, into the wolf's den

It took Su Xuan three days to arrive. He picked up the Haoyue Sect Elder token, took a deep breath, and stepped through the entrance of the Demonic Den.

Inside the Demonic Den, twisted rocks and plants emitting an eerie glow were everywhere.

The branches and leaves of those plants writhed like snakes, occasionally letting out sharp hisses, as if warning Su Xuan not to approach. Su Xuan cautiously bypassed these dangerous plants and continued deeper.

As he walked, Su Xuan suddenly heard a low roar. Su Xuan immediately stopped.

In the darkness ahead, pairs of red eyes gradually emerged, and then, a group of massive Demonic Beasts covered in black scales slowly walked out.

These Demonic Beasts were robust, green venom dripped from their mouths, and they emitted a nauseating stench.

"They're actually Demonic Beasts!"

Su Xuan frowned slightly.

Demonic Beasts are monstrous beasts that accidentally stumbled into this place and were infected by evil energy.

Compared to ordinary monstrous beasts, their strength is greater, and their lifespan is relatively shorter.

According to the intelligence he had received, the entire Demonic Den was vast, possibly equivalent to the area of a super nation, and no one had yet fully explored it.

It was said that in the depths of the Demonic Den, some ancient Demonic Beasts were still slumbering.

Fortunately, the Demonic Beasts that came to harass Su Xuan here were only equivalent to those in the King Sealing Realm. Su Xuan simply cut them down with a single sword, and a large number of them quickly died.

The Demonic Beasts were not fools. Seeing that Su Xuan was not someone to be provoked, they immediately scurried away, disappearing without a trace.

"Quite clever!"

Su Xuan put away his Limitless Sword, wiped the blood from it, and then continued on his way to the Haoyue Sect.

Not long after, Su Xuan finally arrived at the territory of the Haoyue Sect.

Looking from afar, a massive black mountain range stretched before him, its peaks like menacing fangs piercing the sky.

In the deepest part of the mountain range, a thick black mist surged and rolled, like a lurking giant beast, emanating a chilling aura.

"So this is the Haoyue Sect!"

Su Xuan didn't feel disgusted at all; he actually felt it suited him quite well, after all, he was also a villain.

Upon reaching the entrance, Su Xuan displayed his Elder token. The Disciples guarding the mountain gate were just about to seize the opportunity to demand some benefits, but upon seeing Su Xuan's Elder token, they immediately became obedient.

"Greetings, Elder!"

Knowing that he was an Elder, the two Disciples trembled slightly. In a place like this, those who could become Elders were certainly not good people.

However, usually those Elders were out wreaking havoc and rarely returned.

It was possible they wouldn't encounter one for a month or two, yet they were so unlucky today to have met one.

Moreover, this Elder was so young and dressed like a righteous person!

Seeing his attire, the two Disciples became even more frightened.

It was well known that in the Demonic Sect, the more righteous one appeared, the more terrifying they actually were!

Compared to those who genuinely dressed as demonic cultivators, these hypocrites devoured people without spitting out bones!

"Did I tell you to greet me as Elder?"

Su Xuan immediately made things difficult.

"Sorry... Elder! We know we were wrong! Please spare us!"

The two Disciples quickly begged for mercy. Their thoughts were indeed correct; these Elders dressed in righteous attire were indeed more demonic than the last!

Look, he just greeted him, and he wanted their lives.

"Who said I want your lives? You two, greeting me without my permission, this is trampling on my dignity!"

"Do you still have me, an Elder, in your eyes?"

"Now, I order you to immediately hand over all your Storage Rings and storage bags!"

Su Xuan extended his hand, a wicked smile on his face. At this moment, he was even more demonic than the Demonic Path itself.

"Spare us! Sir! We'll give them to you right away!"

The two Disciples were scared pale, their bodies trembling like sieves, not daring to hesitate in the slightest.

They tremblingly took off their Storage Rings and storage bags, holding them in both hands, and respectfully handed them to Su Xuan.

The corner of Su Xuan's mouth curved into a satisfied arc. He snatched the Storage Rings and storage bags and casually tossed them into his own Storage Ring.

"Not bad, not bad. A wise man submits to circumstances, and you are teachable. Continue standing guard!"

After Su Xuan finished speaking, he left directly.

Seeing Su Xuan leave, the two Disciples immediately breathed a sigh of relief; they had finally gotten rid of this devil!

"Spending money to avert disaster, spending money to avert disaster! At least, our lives are still intact!"

The two took a deep breath.

Looking at the spoils in his hand, Su Xuan felt a sense of satisfaction. He had wanted to do this back in the Tianwu Holy Land.

However, the Tianwu Holy Land was a righteous sect, and as a Holy Son, it was naturally somewhat inappropriate for him to do so.

But here was the Demonic Sect, so Su Xuan naturally unleashed his true nature.

"But then again, although I have an Elder token, it seems there's no living arrangement for me here..."

"So where should I live?"

Su Xuan suddenly found himself in a dilemma.

"Wait! This is the Demonic Sect! If there's no place to live, can't I just take one?"

Su Xuan slapped his head. He almost forgot, this was the Demonic Sect, where strength reigned supreme!

Soon, Su Xuan locked onto an unlucky fellow. It was said that this person had just recently married and had an unbetrothed bride, waiting for their wedding night tonight!

So, that evening, Su Xuan directly kicked open that Disciple's door.

The door was kicked open with a "bang," and wood splinters flew.

That Haoyue Sect Disciple was still immersed in joy at this moment; he had finally snatched the young lady he had coveted for so long and brought her to the Haoyue Sect!

He recalled how, when he was a poor boy, he had fallen deeply in love with her.

But there was nothing he could do; the disparity in their statuses was simply too great. He had no choice but to fall into the Demonic Path.

After accumulating strength in the Demonic Path for several years, he finally became a Linghai Realm expert and possessed considerable wealth.

However, when he went to propose marriage, the other party actually disdained him for being from the Demonic Sect and even threatened to report him!

In a fit of rage, he directly slaughtered the bride's entire family, leaving only the bride herself alive.

The bride had long been scared senseless. By the time she came to her senses and wanted to commit suicide, it was already too late.

This demonic sect Disciple was still somewhat respectful to the bride; he merely abducted her and did not touch her.

Instead, he insisted on having a grand ceremony, to marry her gloriously and legitimately.

But who knew, just as he was about to succeed, Su Xuan directly kicked down his door.

"Who the hell are you... do you know this place..."

Before he could finish speaking, Su Xuan directly punched him into heroic fragments.

Looking at the demonic sect Disciple who had been shattered into pieces, a glimmer of light flashed in the bride's eyes. Was this her hero?

"I'm sorry, miss. Congratulations, you've just escaped the tiger's den and fallen into the wolf's lair!"

"Hehehehe!"
