The Black Demon's face turned extremely ugly in an instant: "Great Sage Chaos, I have never offended you, nor have I hoarded any souls, you..."
"Hmm?" Fang Xiu's eyes opened and closed, revealing his brutal and savage nature as he stared directly at the Black Demon: "You mean I came here on purpose to cause trouble?"
A vast, abyss-like demonic aura surged forth, instantly changing the color of the sky and earth, as if plunged into eternal night.
Sensing this terrifying aura, the Black Demon's expression suddenly changed: "Third...Third-Rank Heavenly Demon God!? You've broken through?"
He never expected that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven would break through in such a short time after devouring the Prison Angel; it was simply unbelievable.
"I am already at the peak of the fourth rank, and my talent is extraordinary. Breaking through to the third rank is naturally a piece of cake," Fang Xiu said indifferently, his condescending gaze putting immense pressure on the Black Demon.
Seeing that his opponent was already at the third rank, the Black Demon lost his last bit of courage. He originally thought that since both of them were at the fourth rank, the Great Sage of Chaos had only won against the Prison Angel by relying on that strange Eastern formation. As long as he was careful and did not enter the formation, he might not be afraid of the Great Sage of Chaos.
But now, I can't muster even the slightest thought of resistance.
"No... I dare not." The Black Demon lowered his head in submission.
Fang Xiu stretched out his large palm, patted the Black Demon's shoulder, and leaned closer with a sinister smile: "There is an old saying in the East that goes, 'Those who know the times are heroes.' You are not bad. Don't worry, who in the entire Lava Land doesn't know that I am the most fair and just king, treating everyone equally?"
With me here, I will never wrong any good demon, but I will never let any bad demon go unpunished!
"Go ahead and lead the way; I need to search your cave."
"Yes, Great Sage Evil!" The Black Demon quickly stepped aside to let Fang Xiu into the cave.
Fang Xiu strode in, followed by several fire demons burning with inextinguishable hellfire, their posture unrestrained, as if they had returned to their own home.
He looked around and found that the Black Demon's cave was very simple, with nothing but some bones and some unknown potions.
The Black Demon, who followed closely behind, breathed a sigh of relief. He was extremely grateful that he had not kept the souls to himself but had handed them all over, otherwise he would certainly not have escaped death today.
"Great Sage Evil, you see, I truly haven't kept anything secret..."
"Wait, what's in that house?" Fang Xiu suddenly asked, pointing to a hidden stone chamber in the corner.
Black Demon's expression changed slightly, and he said with a pained expression, "Those are some trinkets I've collected. If you're interested, Great Sage Hun Tian, you can take them."
He knew he was going to suffer a huge loss today. The Great Sage Evil had his eye on his treasure vault, so he could only accept his bad luck and hope that the other party would leave him some money because of his decent attitude.
However, losing some treasures is better than losing his life; he can still tell which is more important.
The Black Demon hurriedly opened the door to the treasure vault and respectfully invited Fang Xiu in. To make it easier for Fang Xiu to take the treasure, he didn't even dare to follow him in, but just stood at the door.
A moment later, the door to the vault opened again.
Black Demon was somewhat surprised. So fast? It seems they didn't take much.
Just as he was secretly pleased, he was stunned when he saw Fang Xiu walking out of the treasure vault.
In Fang Xiu's palm, a shrunken soul was clearly in his hand. The soul was blank and numb, and it was one that he had just grabbed from the underworld of the gods.
"Black Demon, do you have anything else to say?" Fang Xiu said indifferently.
"This... I... no... who put my soul in my treasure vault!?" The Black Demon retreated in panic, but was blocked by the Flame Demons behind him.
"You still know this is your treasure trove!" Fang Xiu's authoritative and deep voice rang out as he pressed closer, looking down at the Black Demon from his superior position.
"Holding a soul hidden from the world, tell me, what is your punishment?"
"It's you! You actually framed me!" Black Demon also realized what had happened, and exclaimed in shock and anger.
"To harbor a soul and yet dare to falsely accuse me, the king, is an even greater crime."
boom!
The Black Demon suddenly exerted its power, slashing with its massive scythe, sending the Flame Demon flying in its path. It then transformed into a cloud of black mist and fled out of the cave.
He wasn't stupid; he knew perfectly well that with this situation, the Roc Demon King was determined to eat him. There was no point in saying anything; he could only run.
Watching the Black Demon flee at breakneck speed, Fang Xiu's eyes remained indifferent as he slowly said, "Hiding a soul, framing the lord, and fleeing to escape punishment—for these three crimes, I have decided to sentence you to death."
Outside the cave, the Black Demon heard Fang Xiu's voice and his killing intent surged. "Peng Demon King, you just wait! The Lava Land can't tolerate me. At worst, I'll switch allegiance to another lord. When Lord Jealous Angel returns, I will definitely give you a good scolding!"
As the Black Demon was thinking this, he suddenly noticed the sound of chains rattling coming from the cave behind him.
He instinctively sensed a danger, and sure enough, the next moment, a hellish chain forged from lava emerged from the depths of the cave like a giant python.
Suddenly, the void was pierced by the chains of hell, which plunged into the void as if by teleportation, and wrapped directly around the black demon's neck.
"No!!!"
Feeling the immense force coming from his neck, the Black Demon's eyes widened in fury. He reached out to grab the sky, seemingly yearning for freedom, but his body was involuntarily sent flying backward, ultimately being completely pulled into the bottomless cave.
Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out from the horizon.
"stop."
Although the sound was not loud, it seemed to ring in everyone's ears, resounding throughout the entire lava land.
Suddenly, the sky... darkened!
The entire lava field was plunged into eternal night, and even the ever-burning lava became unusually dim, almost extinguished.
Buzz!
The heavens and earth trembled inexplicably, and an unparalleled pressure descended.
At this moment, all the demons in the entire lava land stopped what they were doing, emerged from their caves, knelt down respectfully and devoutly, and shouted in unison.
"We pay homage to the angel of envy!"
Praise the angel of jealousy!
A powerful force of faith is rising.
Immediately, a figure in white robes slowly descended from the sky.
He was tall and slender, his body spotless, his hair as white as gold, his eyes reflecting the azure sky, his skin as white as snow, and his face perfect yet feminine. If it weren't for his exposed chest, anyone would have thought he was a woman.
He was the jealous angel Leviathan.
Leviathan ignored the kneeling demons and casually waved his hand. Suddenly, a strong wind arose, and the volcano where the black demons lived was extinguished and even began to crumble.
Finally, Fang Xiu was revealed inside, along with the Black Demon bound by chains in his hand.
