420 Are You Stupid After Becoming a Demon Lord?
A "crackling" sound was heard, and the flaming spear turned a circle in the hands of the Demon Lord Jiangxiao, followed by the sound of spiritual power breaking through the void.
Even though they were not being targeted, the Tribulation Crossing cultivators present felt tremendous pressure and lowered their heads, not daring to think any more about peeling the eggs.
The stone statue, which was originally facing away from them, turned around, revealing a strong and handsome face.
His sharp eyes swept across everyone present, and when his eyes passed Jiang Xin, he stopped involuntarily and looked at her carefully.
Several demon elders were feeling guilty, and when the Demon Lord glanced at them, they became even more flustered and blurted out: "Your Majesty..."
Their voices interrupted Jiang Xiao's thoughts. He looked in the direction of the voice and sneered, "You have sealed me away, but you are living a carefree life."
None of the demon elders dared to speak.
Everyone heard the sarcasm in Jiang Xiao's tone - except Jiang Xin.
Jiang Xin was an honest man. He tilted his head to look at the elders of the demon clan and felt that he must not let his junior brother be misled.
She turned her head and told Jiang Xiao: "Look at how dirty they are. They must be living a miserable life, not at all free and easy."
Jiang Xiao's gaze fell on her again, and he frowned slightly in confusion: "What is your relationship with Mingchen?"
Jiang Xin was a little confused by the question: "Why should I have anything to do with Mingchen?"
Jiang Xiao frowned and looked at her, unable to answer Jiang Xin's question for a moment.
He felt a power in Jiang Xin that was similar to that of the Immortal Master Mingchen, but after careful examination, he could clearly tell the difference between the two.
Jiang Xiao thought for a moment and asked uncertainly, "Are you Mingchen's daughter?"
Jiang Xin shook her head and asked worriedly, "How come you don't even know my parents? Have you become stupid now that you've become the Demon Lord?"
As soon as these words came out, all the demon elders present gasped and shouted angrily: "How dare you! How dare you say such arrogant words, I——"
Before he could finish his words, he saw Taoist Master Zhuyue pointing his sword at him, spiritual energy flowing through the sharp tip of the sword, ready to strike.
Staring at him intently with his ruby-like eyes, Daoist Master Zhuyue said coldly, "Children speak without restraint. I apologize on behalf of Xinxin."
The aura was so strong that it seemed as if he was ordering the other party to apologize. Even the usually arrogant Qiu Yeluo felt scared and reminded him in a low voice: "Zhu Yue, they have a Mahayana Demon Lord."
Jiang Xin was fearless: "Don't be afraid, Grandpa. They have also sealed their own Mahayana Demon Lord. It is obvious that we have a better relationship with the Demon Lord."
Qiu Yeluo, who felt that he was still young, felt as if he was stabbed by Jiang Xin, and was frightened by Jiang Xiao's sneer.
"You know a lot. You are cultivators from the human and demon races, and you came from the Tiancheng spiritual world?" Jiang Xiao asked.
"Yes, yes, we came here from the Tiancheng Spirit World together, little master..." Before Jiang Xin finished her words, the second elder suddenly covered her mouth and whispered to her, "Xinxin, you are still young, leave the things here to the adults."
Jiang Xin was confused and unwilling to accept it, and struggled hard: "Mmmmm--"
[I'm a big kid now, I can help everyone! 】
[Second Master, please don’t stop me.] 】
The second elder was afraid that if they didn't stop Jiang Xin, the Demon Lord Jiang Xiao would hate them all.
It was obvious from Demon Lord Jiang Xiao's performance just now that he had forgotten his experience in Tianshui Sect.
Although the Tianshui Sect had never treated him harshly, but having a Mahayana Demon Lord serve as someone else's junior apprentice, there was a chance that the Mahayana Demon Lord would feel ashamed and want to kill them to silence them after he recovered his strength.
Now that the other person himself doesn't remember the incident, the Second Elder thinks it's best not to mention it.
Ning Yao and his fellow disciples remained silent. The only one who was bold enough, Chu Linfeng, wanted to speak, but was covered by Zhao Shi's foresight. The Second Elder was confident in them.
Only because Jiang Xin was too young and ignorant of the ways of the world, she would easily reveal the matter. That was why the Second Elder stopped her and did not allow her to speak any more.
However, Demon Lord Jiang Xiao is not someone who can be easily fooled.
"Go on." He stared at Jiang Xin and ordered in a deep voice.
The second elder's hand that was covering Jiang Xin's mouth loosened unconsciously, as if controlled by an invisible force.
She broke out in sweat and her heart was pounding.
Even though he knew that the gap between the Tribulation Stage and the Mahayana Stage was like an insurmountable chasm, he did not expect that the other party could make him powerless to resist with just one sentence, and even let go of his hand obediently.
In the past, Jiang Xin was stronger than his junior brother Jiang Xiao. That was because Jiang Xiao was just a clone and did not have all the power in his body.
Now facing the true form of this Mahayana Demon Lord, it is unknown whether Jiang Xin can withstand it.
Everyone in the Tianshui Sect, even Mu Zisong and others, became nervous.
They had all witnessed Jiang Xin's extraordinary abilities. If even this child was helpless, then they would be at the mercy of others.
Fortunately, Jiang Xin did not let them down.
Jiang Xin snorted and raised her chin proudly: “I won’t say anything more.”
[Junior brother seems different from before.] Second Uncle-sensei didn't let me continue speaking. She must have her reasons, so I had to listen to her. 】
"Speak." Jiang Xiao ordered in a deep voice.
"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me." Jiang Xin broke free from the second elder's arms, and with a few taps of his short legs he came to Jiang Xiao's side.
The adult Jiang Xiao was extremely tall, and Jiang Xin only reached his knees. He looked up at him with difficulty, revealing a proud look and an expression that said, "What can you do to me?"
Taoist Master Zhuyue's mouth curled up slightly.
The fact that Jiang Xin resisted the threat from the Mahayana Demon Lord was enough to show that her strength was no worse than his.
In this case, there is something for both sides to talk about.
Seeing Jiang Xiao looking down at Jiang Xin, Daoist Master Zhuyue was afraid that Jiang Xin might say something wrong and cause trouble, so he spoke first and said business: "Your Majesty, we are here this time because of the Devourer."
"Devourer?" Jiang Xiao's attention was indeed diverted. He repeated these three words secretly, feeling inexplicably familiar.
His eyes passed over fellow apprentice Ning Yao, who also looked familiar to him, and landed on several demon elders.
The elders were feeling guilty, fearing that Jiang Xiao would come after them, so they seized this opportunity to show off their merits: "Your Majesty, according to these Taoist friends from the Tiancheng Spirit Realm, the reason why our demon world is constantly dying is because this 'devourer' is secretly absorbing the demon world's spiritual power and vitality."
"They also said that they had fought with the Devourer in the Tiancheng Spirit Realm. The Devourer has currently devoured countless spirit realms. Only our Demon Realm and their Tiancheng Spirit Realm are left with living beings in the Star Realm..."
Several elders spoke at once and briefly repeated the news brought by Daoist Master Zhuyue and others, and finally added: "Your Majesty, please decide whether it is true or not."
Jiang Xiao’s brows were tightly furrowed.
This was clearly the first time he learned of the existence of the Devourer, but for some reason as he listened to the elders' explanation of the matter, he felt as if he had known this for a long time.
He is a cultivator in the Mahayana stage and can accurately control his perception, so it is impossible for him to have such a serious illusion.
Could it be that something happened while he was sealed?
Jiang Xiao suddenly remembered his plan when he led his troops to the Tiancheng spiritual world not long ago.
Could it be that his plan to take a risky move and split his soul into a clone to go to the Tiancheng spiritual world was successful?
