Compared to the "deep affection between master and servant" and the "relaxed and carefree" atmosphere on Wang Zheng's side, the Crimson Flame Eagle King, who was on high alert, was far less fortunate at this moment.
The unlucky demon king was completely enveloped in crimson flames, appearing as scorching as the blazing sun from afar.
But if you look closely, you can see through the constantly writhing flames that the red feathers on his body are already charred black.
Furthermore, the barely suppressed crackling electricity beneath its wings clearly indicated just how dire the demon king's condition was.
To be honest, the reason why the Crimson Flame Eagle King chose to make a move was because he sensed that Wang Zheng's aura was not strong after seeing him, and because Wang Zheng kept showing weakness, so he didn't take him seriously at all.
On the other hand, he did indeed have the idea of getting his hands on the Golden Sun Fruit Tree.
After all, the golden little tree-man and the spiritual fruit on its head constantly emitted a refreshing fragrance, making it clear to anyone that this was no ordinary object.
Moreover, judging from the powerful fluctuations of spiritual energy, there is a high probability that it can accelerate the recovery of one's injuries.
If he doesn't even know how to seize the benefits that are offered to him, then he shouldn't call himself a demon king.
Not to mention, in the eyes of the Crimson Flame Eagle King, this guy in front of him, who looked more like a human than a monster, was not only of mediocre strength, but also exuded a smell that disgusted him.
Not only did he possess a great treasure, he even felt that if he could devour the kid in front of him alive, his strength might be significantly enhanced.
The saying "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime" perfectly illustrates this point.
The Crimson Flame Eagle King was determined to obtain this spiritual fruit, and after sensing the aura of the Candle Flame on Wang Zheng, it became even more determined to kill him.
Moreover, this treacherous and ruthless demon king judged others by his own standards; he never considered whether Wang Zheng's offer of fruit was true or false, for one spirit fruit was hardly enough.
Even newborn beasts know to protect their food; it doesn't make sense that the stronger they are, the more timid they become.
He wanted not only the sapling, but also the tree and the person; he didn't even intend to let Wang Zheng go.
As for what Wang Zheng said about the Zhenhuang Emperor or the Demon King joining forces, he didn't care at all, nor did he want to care.
In any case, the human world is eager to kill him and will fight him on sight, and the situation is not much better for the demon king.
He had been a demon king for so many years, but because Chu Tianxing had destroyed his opportunity to infuse spiritual energy into his body, his strength was weak. Even the weakest demon kings did not take him seriously, and no one of his kind truly respected him.
For the Crimson Flame Eagle King, whether what Wang Zheng said was true or false was no longer important.
If he's human, then just kill him and steal his treasure. If he really is a descendant of the Demon King, then his backing isn't here anyway, is it?
The best course of action is to secure the benefits, recover from your injuries, and then improve your strength.
That's why I acted decisively, preventing Wang Zheng from succeeding in his plan to launch a sneak attack.
It must be said that although the Crimson Flame Eagle King was born with a disability, he was still a demon king whose name contained the element of fire. He keenly sensed the candle flame in Wang Zheng's body, but he never thought that such a spiritual fruit of heaven and earth was not something that someone like him could touch.
He never expected that Wang Zheng was so strong. When the two attacked at the same time, although he had obviously caught his opponent off guard, the kid still managed to fight him to a standstill without revealing his true form.
Even the black fire that gave him the opportunity to evolve suppressed his own natal true flame.
Watching Wang Zheng summon his domain while enveloped in that strange black fire.
A human-like contemplation appeared on the Crimson Flame Eagle King's enormous eagle face.
Even this bloodthirsty demon king is now confused.
He was starting to believe Wang Zheng's story. He knew about the cluster of demon kings on the Yunnan-Guizhou border, and this area also proved Wang Zheng's identity.
He wasn't a demon king, but at least a half-demon who had survived the tribulation of transformation.
Although he had never heard of a half-demon surviving the transformation tribulation over the years, as a bird whose true form was the Crimson Flame Eagle, his hearing was excellent. The Crimson Flame Eagle King clearly heard Wang Zheng say "Zheng Huang" instead of "Zheng Wang".
Although he didn't know what kind of strange beast this "Zheng" was, didn't this just highlight the special nature of the kid in front of him?
Seeing Wang Zheng's confident and fearless demeanor, the Crimson Flame Eagle King, whose eyes were darting around, became uneasy.
Seeing that Wang Zheng was not only fighting him in human form, but also that his domain was only a few feet in diameter, he didn't know whether he should run away or continue fighting.
As for fighting, he believed that Wang Zheng was also a demon king, and his strength was definitely no less than his own, so he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat him at all.
As for running, having witnessed Wang Zheng's previous speed, he knew that despite being the King of Birds, he was not at an advantage in terms of speed.
In an instant, the demon king's expression turned ugly.
How could the Crimson Flame Eagle King know that this freak Wang Zheng was not a demon king at all, and the aura of the strange beast in his body was just from the ferocious beast itself, let alone the transformation tribulation. This guy was just an awakened one who had not transcended the mortal realm.
As for the source of the Crimson Flame Eagle King's misjudgment, the impressive-looking "Candle Flame Domain" was barely maintained by him constantly investing his maximum spiritual energy, and it could only expand to such a small extent.
If Wang Zheng were truly a demon king, he wouldn't need to go through all this trouble. He could simply open his domain to fight back. The Crimson Flame Eagle, with its inherent flaws, would have no chance against him. Its domain was shattered instantly, and it died on the spot.
