Chapter 458 An Unexpected Joy, the Demon King's Inner Core



Hearing Wang Zheng shamelessly taking advantage of her, Kong Ling'er was so angry that she couldn't even maintain her sweet smile and froze on the spot, completely embarrassed.

Wang Zheng didn't care. Seeing that she was stunned, he didn't urge her.

The two stood in the small courtyard, enjoying the rare coolness of the evening.

Being a prince of the demon kingdom, he quickly recovered and adjusted his mindset.

Kong Ling'er, unable to hide her embarrassment, led the way while whispering:

“Young master, don’t joke around. You’re not part of our Phoenix Perch Wu. Even if your father and you are of the same generation, Ling’er still can’t bring herself to call you ‘uncle’.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Zheng looked up at the girl, then remained silent.

Afterwards, Wang Zheng and Kong Ling'er strolled around the Yunnan Demon King's stronghold.

It has to be said that the Peacock Demon King was indeed quite magnanimous. His entire lair was completely undefended against Wang Zheng, allowing him to go wherever he wanted. In no time, Wang Zheng had thoroughly explored the terrain.

Feeling the fluctuations of spiritual energy in the storage room, if Wang Zheng weren't still maintaining the airs of a divine beast offspring, he would have rushed in immediately to absorb as much spiritual energy as possible to make up for his depleted spiritual energy limit.

However, when he thought about the consequences of his identity being exposed and the fate of being caught stealing, he immediately became obedient.

After lingering near Feng Qiwu's storage room for a while, Wang Zheng lost all interest in wandering around.

He went straight back to his residence and immediately closed his door, leaving Kong Ling'er, who was following behind, feeling quite embarrassed.

Upon hearing the knocking at the door, Wang Zheng replied immediately:

"Men and women shouldn't touch each other, so it's not convenient for you to come into my room. Go play by yourself."

Upon hearing this, the little peacock was so angry that it covered its nose and brandished its claws at the door for a while, eventually even beginning to doubt its own charm.

Wang Zheng didn't care about this at all. He was penniless right now. Looking at the last bit of spiritual energy he had left on his panel, he immediately released the smaller corpse of the blue-eyed golden eagle.

Fortunately, these rooms were designed for demon kings. Beasts don't like to sleep in human form, so these guest rooms were built to be exceptionally tall. Otherwise, Wang Zheng really wouldn't have been able to take out the corpse of this sixth-grade beast from the room.

Then Wang Zheng started looting the corpse. First, he took out a pale golden spiritual crystal from the corpse's head and absorbed it completely. Then he replaced it with the Berserk Demon Bear.

Another high-level, jet-black crystal was absorbed by Wang Zheng, adding a little over 8,000 spiritual crystals to his collection.

Although it was already a considerable gain, Wang Zheng felt increasingly saddened as he looked at his spiritual energy value, which was still less than 20,000.

Thinking back to when he left home this morning, he was still so full of vigor and arrogance, carrying a huge sum of over 100,000 yuan in spiritual energy.

I never expected it, I never expected it, it was all gone in just one afternoon.

After much hesitation, Wang Zheng still threw out Huang Zumeng's corpse.

The moment it was taken out, a violent fluctuation of spiritual energy spread out.

Although Wang Zheng didn't know the specific purpose the Poisonous Python King wanted for the corpse, it was clear that the half-demon's body was indeed incredibly valuable, as even a dead body could generate such a large commotion.

The concentration of spiritual energy was many times greater than that of the golden eagle and the demonic bear.

The thought that this was a treasure even the Demon King coveted immediately fueled Wang Zheng's excitement, and he promptly pulled out his Miao sword and cut open the man's stomach.

Don't ask why I didn't use the poisoned bone knife. I still plan to sell this meat when I get back, so I can't just poison it.

Wang Zheng now wished he could use one spiritual crystal as two, so he dared not make a reckless cut.

Didn't you see how gentle he was when he just opened up the abdomen? If it were the usual Young Master Wang, he wouldn't be so meticulous.

At this point, Wang Zheng didn't care about being dirty anymore. However, after rummaging through the enormous, foul-smelling stomach for a long time, he still found himself empty-handed. The stench emanating from his own body made him want to vomit.

Enraged, Wang Zheng kicked the enormous elephant carcass viciously, and then could only remove the elephant head that he had torn off.

However, with the appearance of this elephant head, the spiritual energy particles in the room immediately became more active.

Seeing the mammoth's ferocious and incredulous expression, Wang Zheng sneered disdainfully, then expertly cracked open its skull.

Immediately afterwards, a pale yellow spiritual crystal rolled out, and Wang Zheng picked it up and absorbed it directly.

Seeing that the spiritual energy limit had increased by more than 5,000 in the data panel, he sighed helplessly.

'It seems this half-demon is no different from a normal beast; aside from its ability to transform, it has nothing special about it.'

Just as Wang Zheng was about to pick up the elephant head on the ground, his sharp eyes suddenly noticed that there was a pure white crystal inside the brain region where spiritual energy crystals had grown.

Judging from its shape, it is the demon king's inner core that Huang Zumeng swallowed earlier!

However, compared to the previous inner core which was the size of a billiard ball, it has now shrunk to the size of a ping-pong ball.
