Compared to the monkey's injuries, the Black King's injuries were obviously much lighter.
However, the Black Emperor's expression was extremely unpleasant.
You must know, he was a powerful Great God Emperor, yet he couldn't completely crush a monkey who was a level lower than him.
At one point, the two sides were evenly matched!
With this record, even if we win, it's still embarrassing!
If the monkey were to become a Great God Emperor, he would absolutely be able to crush him with overwhelming force!
At this moment, the Black Emperor was terrified and dared not continue fighting the monkey.
On the one hand, he was worried that he hadn't killed the monkey, but instead made it stronger.
On the other hand, he was worried that the Emperor Zhonghuang would point a finger at him from afar and pierce his heart!
"Again!"
However, the monkey, blinded by rage, roared at the Black Emperor's sudden escape.
But the Black Emperor had already returned to the Demon Emperor City and did not respond to the monkey. Instead, he looked at Ao Yan with apprehension and said:
"Who exactly are you?"
Although Chicken King and the others guessed that Ao Yan was Nangong Wentian, Black King vaguely felt that it shouldn't be.
He was unaware that Nangong Wentian had gone to the Tianhuang Ancient Mine. In the entire Demon Emperor City, only Ya Zi knew about it; his twelve trusted subordinates were also unaware.
The reason he thought Ao Yan was unlikely to be Nangong Wentian was because the dog's nose detected that Ao Yan's scent was different from Nangong Wentian's!
"You are not qualified to know who I am. I'll give you one last chance: call Ya Zi here."
Ao Yan spoke in a detached tone.
Although the Dog King has retreated back to the Demon Emperor City, the Chicken King, Tiger King, and the other three are still at the city gate.
They exchanged glances, and finally, the Tiger Emperor said in a deep voice, "The Demon Emperor is currently in seclusion and will not be able to emerge for some time. If Your Majesty has any requests, please feel free to give them to us!"
He had no choice; he was no match for a Great Emperor Realm expert and had to admit defeat!
If he dares to be stubborn like he was at the beginning again, killing him will be as easy as stepping on an ant on the roadside!
"Is Yazi in seclusion?"
Ao Yan was somewhat surprised, staring coldly at the Tiger King.
Tiger King lowered his head and looked down, not daring to meet his gaze at all.
After just one glance, Ao Yan instantly realized that he was lying.
So why did Tiger King lie?
Logically speaking, after suffering such a great injustice at his own doorstep, Tiger King should have immediately called upon Yazi to come to his aid.
There must be a reason why he's saying this now.
Ao Yan suddenly remembered something else: Ya Zi had twelve great demon emperors under his command.
Some of these great demon emperors were subdued in this era, while others survived from the end of the barbaric era. They followed Yazi in his campaigns across the north and south, and were much stronger than ordinary great demon emperors.
Currently, only the five great demon kings—the Black King, the Rat King, the Tiger King, the Chicken King, and the Lion King—have appeared here.
What about the other seven?
With such a huge commotion at the gates of the Demon Emperor's City, the remaining seven couldn't possibly be unaware of it!
Furthermore, Yazi, who was in seclusion, should have sensed it long ago.
However, neither the seven great demon emperors nor Yazi appeared!
How could Ao Yan not know about Ya Zi's personality? There's a saying, "Ya Zi bu zealo" (meaning someone who is extremely vengeful), which means he absolutely cannot tolerate the slightest injustice!
"Yazi isn't in the city, is he? Where did he go?"
Ao Yan spoke calmly.
Chen Xuan, Da Hei Niu, and Nangong Daoyi were all taken aback.
Not only them, but the monsters in the Demon Emperor City also showed expressions of astonishment.
Is the Demon Emperor not in the Demon Emperor City?
Very likely!
If this were within the Demon Emperor City, how could he tolerate his subordinates being bullied like this?
However, small fry like them are not worthy of knowing the whereabouts of the Demon Emperor.
Tiger King's expression changed. How could he not know whether Ya Zi was in the city or not?
They are definitely not here!
He just said he was in seclusion, which was just a lie to make Ao Yan wary, but Ao Yan saw through it at a glance, which is a bit embarrassing.
For a moment, Tiger King's eyes darted around, racking his brains to find an excuse to answer Ao Yan, but he couldn't come up with anything even after racking his brains until they were practically smoking.
"Where is Ya Zi now?" Ao Yan asked.
However, the Tiger King, the Chicken King, and the other major demon kings looked at each other in bewilderment, unsure of how to respond.
Because they did not know the whereabouts of Yazi, nor the other seven great demon emperors.
To put it bluntly, the five of them stayed behind to guard the house.
Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to cause trouble in the Demon Emperor City.
Even if they encounter troublemakers, five Great God Emperors are more than enough to resolve any problem.
Who would have thought that the one causing trouble would be the Emperor?
Seeing them staring at each other blankly, completely bewildered, it was clear to everyone that none of the five had any idea where Ya Zi had gone.
"It's a pity. Since Ya Zi isn't here, then forget it. I won't make things difficult for you. Open the city gates. We didn't come here to cause trouble; we just wanted to pass through the Demon Emperor City."
Ao Yan spoke calmly.
Someone of his status, bullying the weak and taking advantage of his power to bully a few mere Great God Emperors?
It's pointless, and he wouldn't stoop to doing such a thing.
Besides escorting Chen Xuan and his group into the Demon Emperor City, he also came here to settle an old score with Ya Zi.
As it turned out, Ya Zi was not in the Demon Emperor City, so the old score could not be settled for the time being.
Since that's the case, let's cross the city first.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go to the Heavenly Desolate Ancient Mine?"
Seeing that the other party had no intention of killing, Tiger King breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously.
Actually, this is a pointless question. Demon Emperor City is already the southernmost point of the entire Southern Barbarian Lands, and in the distant Boundary Sea era, it was even called Zhennan Pass.
Once you pass through the Demon Emperor's City, it's as if you've left the mortal realm.
After passing through the Demon Emperor City, there is only one place to go: the Heavenly Desolate Ancient Mine!
This place used to be an ancient battlefield, where an entire era was buried in the final battle of the chaotic ancient times!
It is said that supreme beings shed blood or even perished within it, and the Great Dao transformed into a rain of blood that fell for tens of millions of years!
"Open the city gates."
Ao Yan spoke calmly, without uttering a single unnecessary word.
The injuries to Tiger King and the others in the heart area gradually began to heal.
When Ao Yan pierced their hearts, he did not use the laws of the Great Emperor, nor did he destroy their divine laws, so he was able to recover from his injuries.
To put it bluntly, it was just a way to give them a warning.
Now, Tiger King and his group have also realized this.
Since they didn't intend to kill us and just wanted to pass through, we certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to prevent them from crossing the city.
They immediately stepped aside, gesturing for the emperor to proceed, and said politely, "Your Majesty, please!"
Chen Xuan and his group stepped directly into the Demon Emperor City.
After entering the Demon Emperor City, Nangong Daoyi suddenly thought of something and turned around.
