Chapter 1393 |
The faces of the Blood Empress Demon King and her companions brimmed with boundless excitement.
As soon as they appeared, the Blood Empress Demon King didn’t hesitate or hold back. She immediately pulled Su Jingzhen into her embrace, pressing his head against her chest.
Even as a Demon King, she couldn’t contain her joy.
"Little brat, I’m so happy!
This time, in the struggle against the Boundless Demon Sect, I finally won!
Thank you!"
As she spoke, a hint of moisture glistened in the corners of her eyes.
Su Jingzhen felt a wave of emotion too.
A Demon King displaying such intense feelings was rare, underscoring her irreconcilable hatred for the Boundless Demon Sect.
If the Yunmeng Goddess—also known as Boundless Snow—turned out to be an ally rather than an enemy, balancing his relationship with the Blood Empress Demon King would be tricky.
On his system panel, Xuening’s sub-panel remained intact.
Moreover, the daily fixed points continued to trickle in steadily.
This confirmed that certain ties still held.
For now, he could only take things one step at a time.
At the very least, securing Blood Demon City as a foothold in the Boundless Demon Realm would be a major advantage.
"Envoy, let’s return to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss first."
Seeing the emotional Blood Empress Demon King, Mo Xuantian, Mo Xuanling, and the old tree knew what was coming.
They smiled and addressed Su Jingzhen.
He didn’t hesitate. With a flash of black light in his hand, he stored them all in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
Before he could speak, the Blood Empress Demon King’s passionate lips pressed against his.
On this desolate mountain, she waved her hand gently.
An invisible barrier formed.
Ordinary people, even with divine consciousness, couldn’t detect them.
Then, like dry wood meeting a fierce flame, they ignited.
At that moment, the Blood Empress Demon King needed to release the emotions pent up in her heart.
This intense encounter lasted an entire day.
Only then did it subside.
Su Jingzhen, once again bare, sat cross-legged on the mountain peak, meditating.
The Blood Empress Demon King’s cultivation far surpassed You Yue’s.
This time, he was truly exhausted.
Seeing him like this, her lips curled into a playful smile.
"Little brother, it seems you still need practice. Not that impressive, huh?"
Her teasing words stung Su Jingzhen’s pride.
This was about a man’s dignity—his fighting spirit flared again!
"Sister Blood Empress, how dare you say I’m not impressive!
Who was begging for mercy earlier? How about we go another three hundred rounds!"
As he spoke, he readied himself to charge again.
But the Blood Empress Demon King’s expression turned serious.
"Alright, alright, you’re the best, little brother. I was wrong. Spare me.
Perhaps we should focus on what’s happening in Blood Demon City.
With the Scorching Sun Demon King’s death, they won’t let it go.
But for us, this isn’t over yet."
As she spoke, fierce killing intent radiated from her.
Su Jingzhen’s demeanor grew solemn too.
Regardless of his future ties with the Boundless Demon Sect or whether Boundless Snow would be friend or foe, for now, they stood firmly against the Boundless Demon Sect.
Naturally, he’d do his utmost to help the Blood Empress Demon King exact her revenge.
The two quickly dressed.
At that moment, golden text appeared before Su Jingzhen’s eyes.
It was the daily fixed points.
[Daily Fixed Points: Shuang Jiang: 48, Zhang Xiu: 70…]
[Remaining Available Points: 59,249]
After a glance, he paid it little mind.
With You Yue absent, he relied solely on these daily points.
It was indeed frustrating.
As for the Blood Empress Demon King, building a deeper emotional bond would take time.
He sighed inwardly.
The barrier on the mountain peak dissipated.
The Blood Empress Demon King’s aura shifted, and her appearance subtly altered.
Seeing this, Su Jingzhen’s expression changed as a thought struck him.
"Sister Blood Empress, what’s your plan? Are you thinking of entering Blood Demon City directly?"
She looked puzzled for a moment.
"Of course, I need to see what’s happening now.
After the Scorching Sun Demon King’s death, the No Thought Demon King will surely act.
At the very least, they won’t just hand Blood Demon City over to us."
A flash of excitement crossed her face. "If they’re overconfident and leave only one or two Demon Kings to guard it, we can repeat our earlier success."
Su Jingzhen shook his head. "It’s only been half a day.
The No Thought Demon King won’t repeat that mistake.
Right now, Blood Demon City’s defenses will be at their peak.
He might be waiting for us to overreach and try to press our advantage.
Instead, we could strike deeper into the Boundless Demon Realm.
Didn’t you already identify which Demon King- and Demon General-level forces besieged us?"
Her eyes widened, then lit up.
"Good brother!
You’re truly my lucky star!"
She could’ve thought of this herself.
But her hatred had clouded her judgment earlier.
Blood Demon City was easy for the No Thought Demon King to defend.
But the Boundless Demon Realm was vast. If she launched a surprise attack, no Demon General- or even Demon King-level sect could stop her.
"Let’s go now!
We’ll leave Blood Demon City to them for the time being.
After we crush a few sects, maybe No Thought will come begging to negotiate and hand over Blood Demon City."
Impulsive as ever, she grabbed Su Jingzhen’s hand and stepped off the peak.
They left without a backward glance.
Su Jingzhen sighed.
For a long time, the forces in Blood Demon City would likely live in fear.
Meanwhile, in Blood Demon City, just as Su Jingzhen predicted, the No Thought Demon King and his dozen or so Demon King allies hadn’t left.
They waited quietly for Su Jingzhen and the others to return.
"Given Blood Empress’s hatred for our Boundless Demon Sect, after this small victory, she’ll surely want to push further.
On the surface, we’ve left, leaving only the Crimson Feather Demon King. She’ll be tempted to strike again."
The No Thought Demon King spoke to those around him.
But he wasn’t entirely certain.
As his words fell,
instead of the Blood Empress Demon King’s arrival, they received shocking news.
The Desolate Heaven Demon King beside him paled.
"Something’s happened to my Desolate Heaven Demon Sect!"
