Fang Xiu paid no attention to the Angel of Jealousy. He preferred food that was already in his mouth to food that he could not obtain. Under the gaze of the Angel of Jealousy, he opened his mouth wide, revealing his white teeth, and then a terrifying devouring power erupted.
"No, no, no! Lord Angel of Jealousy, save me!!" The Dark Demon struggled desperately, screaming incessantly.
The angel of jealousy said indifferently, "I told you, stop."
The Black Demon was overjoyed upon hearing this, knowing he was saved. The demons who had been oppressed these past few days were also ecstatic, feeling that they could finally turn the tables and become the masters.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone present, including the Angel of Envy, Fang Xiu's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't even stop what he was doing.
Click!
The sound of teeth opening and closing was exceptionally clear.
The Black Demon was swallowed whole.
The demons stared in disbelief at the scene before them. At this moment, they truly believed that the Roc Demon King had gone mad, daring to openly disregard the orders of the Angel of Jealousy.
This is the Envy Angel, ranked second among the seven archangels of Hell, second only to Lucifer!
The most powerful generals under Satan are Lucifer and Leviathan. Leviathan can be considered the third most powerful figure in Hell.
The jealous angel remained indifferent, as if nothing in the world could attract his attention. He stared indifferently at Fang Xiu.
“You not only killed the Prison Angel, but you also killed the Dark Lord right in front of me. I need an explanation.”
Fang Xiu slightly raised his eyes, a cruel smile playing on his lips: "What? You feel sorry for these good-for-nothings?"
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Angel of Jealousy, as if she were curious about him: "It's been a long time since anyone has dared to speak to me like that."
"It seems you've only ever met useless people before."
Fang Xiu's words effectively condemned the entire Prison of Jealousy, because indeed no one in the Prison of Jealousy dared to disrespect the Angel of Jealousy.
"Explain," the Angel of Jealousy said indifferently.
"I have never needed to explain my actions to anyone throughout my life," Fang Xiu sneered.
The two men locked eyes; one was indifferent, the other brutal. They had only one thing in common: neither of them took the other seriously.
After a moment, the Angel of Jealousy nodded indifferently: "Understood."
He slowly extended his fair, jade-like palm, and wisps of demonic energy frantically gathered in his hand, compressing in the blink of an eye into a black sphere the size of a ping-pong ball, like a miniature black hole, even swallowing the surrounding light.
"Well then... goodbye."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Angel of Jealousy raised his arm, preparing to unleash the black ball in his hand.
Fang Xiu had no doubt that the terrifying energy contained within it was enough to flatten the entire lava field with a single strike.
But then he laughed, a very contemptuous laugh: "It seems you are indeed inferior to Lucifer."
Click!
The Angel of Jealousy suddenly tightened his grip, instantly crushing the terrifying black sphere in his palm, sending it back into nothingness. For the first time, emotion appeared on his indifferent face—anger and murderous intent.
It is the anger of being offended by someone in a lower position and having one's sore spot touched.
"What did you say!"
Seeing the enraged Angel of Envy, Fang Xiu smiled even more contemptuously and said, word by word, "I say you are indeed inferior to Lucifer."
Each word resounded like thunder, striking the heart of the angel of jealousy.
The reason he said this was naturally because he had already obtained information about the Envy Angel from the Prison Angel. The Envy Angel, true to his name, was extremely jealous.
The Angel of Envy ranks second among the seven archangels of Hell, only after Lucifer. Therefore, his object of envy is Lucifer, who is stronger, more powerful, and more favored by Satan, among other things.
He was jealous of everything Lucifer was better than him in.
"Very well, I originally intended to kill you, but now I've changed my mind. I want you to wish you were dead!"
A terrifying killing intent erupted from the Angel of Envy, causing the entire lava land to tremble. The demons who were prostrate on the ground were terrified, fearing that they would be caught in the crossfire.
After all, with the power of the Envy Angel, once enraged, it could destroy the entire Lava Land in an instant.
They were cursing Fang Xiu to death in their hearts. Why couldn't he just die peacefully instead of provoking the angel of jealousy?
Some people even thought that Fang Xiu did it on purpose, knowing that he was doomed to die, so he deliberately provoked the Envy Angel and then made everyone perish with him.
However, what happened next was even more terrifying.
"Do you know what you look like right now?" Fang Xiu spit out four words contemptuously: "Impotent rage."
The Angel of Jealousy had completely broken down. His palm crushed through the endless void and arrived in front of Fang Xiu in an instant, as if to suppress him.
Fang Xiu continued, "If Lucifer were here, he certainly wouldn't kill me, because he's more tolerant than you."
Upon hearing this, the angel of jealousy's hand remained on Fang Xiu's head, but hesitated to press down.
"That's why he's more powerful than you. He doesn't care about the process, he only cares about the result. He also doesn't tolerate useless people. Since he's more powerful than you, he can do more things, and naturally he'll be more appreciated by Satan."
Because he has more power than you, he has gained more faith in the demon god, and his strength is naturally greater. If you remain in the same situation, you will never be as good as him.
Fang Xiu's words were like a wake-up call, giving the jealous angel a slight jolt. He suddenly felt that what Fang Xiu said made a lot of sense.
It turns out the reason I've always been inferior to Lucifer is because my subordinates are incompetent!
Because his subordinates were incompetent, he was unable to accomplish his tasks effectively and was therefore not valued by Satan.
Because his subordinates were incompetent, he lacked the power of faith, and therefore his strength was inferior to Lucifer's!
Seeing the subtle change in the Jealous Angel's expression, Fang Xiu knew that the other party had taken his words to heart.
Skilled at manipulating people, he knew exactly how to deal with envious individuals. Envious people never look for the cause within themselves; upon seeing someone else's success, they'll always assume the person was lucky or didn't take the right path, etc.
Like the jealous angel, he felt inferior to Lucifer, not because he was incapable, but because there must be other reasons.
This reason has to exist, even if it's fabricated, because only in this way will he feel better.
Today, Fang Xiu fabricated a reason for him, and in an instant, the jealous angel felt enlightened, even refreshed, and no longer felt the resentment of the past.
"Are you willing to be overshadowed by Lucifer for the rest of your life?" Fang Xiu's voice was like the devil's whisper, tempting the angel of jealousy.
Suddenly, the angel of jealousy withdrew his hand, took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually returned to calm.
"If you cannot prove your worth, I will personally take your life."
After saying that, the Angel of Jealousy turned and left, his figure disappearing from the spot.
As he watched the Angel of Jealousy depart, all the tyranny and cruelty on Fang Xiu's face slowly faded, replaced by endless tranquility.
He knew he had successfully preserved the identity of the Roc Demon King and had naturally gained control of the Lava Land, meaning he could enjoy the buffet again.
