Chapter 79 Capital 10
◎Both were exposed? ◎
Qi Zhaoyang paused when he heard this.
"Bai Chen?" Xiao Tao asked distractedly, "Which Bai Chen?"
Yan Yue was confused for a moment. How many Bai Chens were there? She replied hesitantly, "My backer is Bai Chen."
Xiao Tao didn't miss the moment when she was confused. She glanced at her and said contemptuously, "Do you know who Bai Chen is?"
Yan Yue said confidently: "Bai Chen is my backer!"
Xiao Tao was distracted by the meaningless nonsense and got slapped by a claw. She gestured to Yan Yue in frustration: "How dare you tease me! Do you believe I will really slap you?"
“What a big mouth!”
The domineering voice fell from the dark sky like thunder. The airflow that came down at the same time seemed to have the power of thunder and lightning, directly pressing everyone, ghosts, and monsters on the field to the ground, unable to move!
Yan Yue, the only one standing, fell into a warm embrace before he could see what was happening.
Bai Chen looked at her loose hair and slightly dishevelled clothes, and became anxious. He scolded her, "Didn't I tell you not to worry and play for a few days first?"
The familiar voice was full of reproach, which instantly ignited Yan Yue's anger. Even though he was held in his arms, he still kicked him hard.
"You still have the nerve to talk about me? Where have you been? I called you so many times but you didn't respond!"
She pointed at Zhou Lin and yelled, "Look at Zhou Lin, he's been beaten to a pulp! What if I was beaten like that? I wouldn't even recognize you when I was in front of you. How can I still call myself your master in the future?!"
Bai Chen rubbed his legs in pain. Looking at her usually pale face, which was actually stained with a thin layer of red due to anger, he quickly coaxed her in a low voice: "Alright, alright, don't be angry anymore! I'm here..."
Then he frowned, tilted his head slightly, and ordered the egret leopard who was covering his eyes behind him: "Clear!"
The egret leopard suddenly became serious, shot out like a sharp arrow, and kicked Xiaotao, who was lying on the ground, away! In the blink of an eye, the egret leopard flew in front of Xiao Tao again, raised its leg high, and kicked her hard from top to bottom!
Xiao Tao, who was ferocious before, now had no strength to fight back and could only cross her arms in front of her chest.
With a "bang", Xiao Tao fell heavily to the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood, and immediately revealed her true form!
"Fox Fairy!" Changning screamed miserably.
The fox with reddish-brown fur stared in horror at the sharp cold blade that was striking its face, its heart and liver trembling! At the critical moment, a black snake suddenly flew over and tightly wrapped around the cold light, stopping the sharp blade from falling.
Xiao Tao realized later that the "black snake" was Yan Yue's whip.
Yan Yue pulled away Bai Lubao's knife and accused him, "What are you doing? Why are you killing people indiscriminately? You are of the same tribe, why are you killing each other?"
Bai Lubao was stunned for a moment, and then seriously corrected him, "I am a buzzard, and she is a fox. We are not of the same species."
"Is this the point?" Bai Chen held his forehead helplessly and lectured Yan Yue, "She just spoke wildly to you and even attacked you!"
Yan Yue: "Hasn't he been beaten? He was beaten to the point of vomiting blood!"
Bai Chen: “Is that the end?”
Yan Yue: "The crime does not deserve death!"
Bai Chen: "If you lose, you deserve to die."
Yan Yue: "You are all demons, it is not good to kill each other!"
Bai Chen: "The monsters only believe in the survival of the fittest, and the winner is king. Sons killing fathers, fathers killing sons, it's nothing new. If you lose, you have to admit it!"
Yan Yue was getting impatient: "I am not a demon, I don't recognize you! If you keep talking nonsense, I will turn against you!"
Bai Chen: “…”
The pressure in the courtyard had been removed long before the two of them quarreled.
Qi Zhaoyang regained his freedom and glanced at Bai Chen and the other demon with caution, wondering how he could escape unscathed.
When he first met Bai Chen, he felt vaguely that he seemed to have heard this name somewhere, but at that time he was so focused on competing with him that he forgot to explore the origin.
Later, the master summoned him urgently, saying that some unexpected incident had occurred and that monsters were wreaking havoc, and asked him to go for support. Together with his fellow disciples, he captured a powerful monster. From the monster, he learned that the whereabouts of the Monster King Bai Chen was unknown. The monster clan was in civil strife for the throne and without a leader, they took advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters and disrupt the world.
He was struck by lightning, and suddenly realized why Bai Chen's name sounded familiar to him.
He wanted to find Yan Yue immediately, but his master sent him to deal with the affairs of Prince Jing's Mansion. Fortunately, he heard that Prince Jing had also invited a hermit master from Linjiang City in the southwest. He guessed that this "master" must be Yan Yue, so he rode his horse as fast as he could.
Qi Zhaoyang thought for a long time and became more and more uneasy.
Without even moving a finger, Bai Chen overwhelmed all the evil ghosts, evil spirits, fox demons, and even himself, the top disciple of Qingxu Temple, in the courtyard, leaving them without any chance to fight back. Even if he used all his magic weapons and exerted all his strength, he could only delay this thousand-year-old monster for a moment.
The only way now is to coax Yan Yue to leave with him before they fall out, and hide her to protect her from the clutches of the evil spirit.
So, he called out in a serious tone: "Yueyue, come here."
"Wait." Yan Yue ignored him and went straight to the rope that Xiaotao had thrown on the ground. The rope was not made of ordinary hemp rope, but had a metal texture. It felt heavy in the hand, and there was a hook and claw on the top.
She asked Xiao Tao: "Is this the soul-catching lock used by the underworld's ghost messengers? Where did you get it from?"
The red fox in its original form could not answer, so it could only try to restore its human form and explain, "I stole it from the Yinchai." Looking at the mist floating over, she asked Yan Yue, "Is this Changning?"
Yan Yue nodded and was about to tell Chang Ning what she wanted to say, but Qi Zhaoyang had already come up to her, grabbed her arm, and whispered, "Don't talk! Come on, follow me!"
Yan Yue tried to break free but failed, and asked in confusion: "Where are you going? There are so many things that are not finished yet!"
Qi Zhaoyang seemed a little anxious: "I have something else to discuss with you. Don't ask me any more questions, just follow me!"
“Let go!”
Along with Bai Chen's cold voice, a gust of wind also fell. The force was so strong that it directly knocked away Qi Zhaoyang's hand that was pulling Yan Yue.
"Hey, stop making trouble!" Yan Yue said to Bai Chen, and continued to ask Qi Zhaoyang: "What's wrong with you? The most important thing right now is to send the souls of King Jing and Changning back to their bodies first!"
Qi Zhaoyang endured the pain, secretly took out several talismans and hid them behind his back, and struggled to keep a calm face: "Yueyue, I really have something important to do. Come with me first, and after I finish this, I will definitely help you deal with this matter."
Bai Chen looked at her with frosty eyes and said with contempt, "With me here, Master Qi won't have to worry about this. If Master Qi needs Yue'er's help, you can talk to me, your master, and it's the same."
"Yueyue is just learning some martial arts from you," Qi Zhaoyang walked forward slowly. The talisman paper on his back was deformed due to his nervousness. "Brother Bai, you made a decision for her privately. I'm afraid you have crossed the line... right!"
The last word was almost shouted out, and at the same time, several pieces of talisman paper with sparks flew straight towards Bai Chen!
Bai Chen raised his hand and waved, and the several talisman papers were blocked, but Qi Zhaoyang's long sword inlaid with many gems was instantly unsheathed and stabbed forward!
The incident happened in a flash, but Yan Yue knew very well that Qi Zhaoyang could not be a match for Bai Chen. Besides, Bai Chen has a bad temper. If he really gets angry, she can't stop him!
So Yan Yue kicked away Qi Zhaoyang's sword tip and shouted angrily, "Qi Zhaoyang, what are you crazy about?"
Qi Zhaoyang lost the opportunity and had no chance to fight him. He blurted out in anxiety and anger: "He is Bai Chen!"
"Demon King Bai Chen!"
Yan Yue was stunned and looked at Bai Chen in confusion: "Demon... King?"
Her question stunned Bai Chen, and even his anger dissipated for the most part, as if he had been exposed for doing something bad.
"Uh...ah, I am."
After admitting it, Bai Chen felt something was wrong.
He is the demon king, and it's not something shameful! Besides, he didn't want to conceal his identity deliberately. It was she who didn't ask. Did he have to rush to say "I am the Demon King"? It would be as if he wanted to use his identity to suppress her!
Bai Chen felt that he was quite reasonable. Why was he being questioned like this? But... he just lost his momentum for some reason, as if he was really inferior to her.
He observed Yan Yue's expression, trying to find the anger of being deceived, the rejection of evil, and the fear of the powerful alien race in her reaction, but it seemed... there was none of that? Why is she a little excited?
"Is this true? You are the demon king? Then aren't you the emperor of the demon race?"
Bai Chen was a little confused and glanced at Bai Lubao: "Uh... probably! But, he is not quite the same as the emperor of you humans..."
"Do you have any children?"
"Ah? Uh, no..."
"Ha! Then I am your only disciple. Doesn't that mean I am the prince of the demon clan? Hahahaha..."
“…………”
The three faces in the audience were speechless.
Bai Chen reminded him, "I think I just told you that the demon race believes in the law of the jungle and the winner is the king. Even if you are my biological child, the position of demon king can only be won by fighting with swords and fists, not to mention that you are still a human being."
Yan Yue said nonchalantly: "How many years can I live? As long as you are the demon king for one day, I will have you protecting me. Who dares to bully me?"
Bai Lubao pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with what the prince said!"
“…………”
Bai Chen felt a little choked up in his chest.
Yan Yue's reaction was completely beyond Qi Zhaoyang's expectations, but his shocked and depressed mood was interrupted by a sudden gust of cold wind.
Two purple-robed ghost messengers came with a rustling sound. Yan Yue's pupils suddenly shrank, and he immediately gathered up the Soul-Catching Chain and hid it behind him.
Bai Chen looked at her sneaky little movements with helplessness, but still stood behind her and covered her with his body.
Unexpectedly, the two Yincha looked around the field and their eyes fell on Yan Yue, who had a cold expression and his hands behind his back. They looked at each other in shock and bowed together!
"Greetings to the God!"
Bai Chen's heart seemed to be hit hard, and he suddenly stared at Yan Yue in front of him!
But Yan Yue took a step aside, letting him pass completely, and whispered to him, "Looking for you."
The two ghost messengers were stunned, and Bai Chen was also stunned.
But her expression was extremely natural, without any falsehood or concealment, as if she was completely unaffected by the situation.
As the name suggests, a deity must first be a god, and secondly, must be respected.
Even though Bai Chen is the king of the demon clan and is respectfully called "Your Excellency" by all the demons, he is still far from being worthy of the title of "God". So when Yinchai called "God", he was naturally not calling Bai Chen.
As far as Bai Chen knew, the only person who could be called "God" by the Yinchai was that person.
So far, there has been no news of a new god of the underworld.
