Inside the Heavenly Demon Palace, groups of people gathered in twos and threes. Each of them had a raging demonic flame and an imposing manner. They were all famous demons in the Cangwu Continent.
The four hall masters, the twelve demon kings, and the eight elders were all there. Even the great elder who had been in seclusion showed up, with his eyes closed to rest. There was no one at the scene whose cultivation was lower than that of a Martial King. There were also many Martial Emperors, and the great elder was even at the Semi-Emperor level.
"Tiger King, I heard that you went to the Ten Thousand Demons Cave recently. Did you find any treasures?"
"Master Wan, how are the demons doing recently?"
"Fifth Elder, your cultivation has improved again during this retreat. Congratulations."
"What does the leader mean by asking us all to come?"
"Cough..." Liansheng, who was standing next to the magic dragon's chair, cleared his throat and the scene fell silent. Everyone knew that Liansheng was Zhou Qiong's confidant.
"The leader has called us here to make an important announcement. Just wait."
The great elder, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the magic dragon chair. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then he closed them again.
Others also discovered that a man as deep as the sea appeared on the magic dragon chair, exuding an aura that suppressed everything.
"Meet the Master."
There was no echo, and the aura of repression in the air became heavier and heavier. One after another, some of the Twelve Demon Kings could not bear it anymore and used their skills to resist with all their might. Just when even the Great Elder felt the pressure, the pressure disappeared.
"What's the situation in the East China Sea?"
Two people stood up in the crowd and said, "Master, the demon tribe in the East Sea has been very peaceful recently. They only invade our territory occasionally, but they are easily suppressed."
Zhou Qiong looked at the two people below, they were Li Changsheng, the head of Qinglong Hall, and Wan Li, the head of Xuanwu Hall. Both of them were in the middle stage of Martial Emperor cultivation.
"Well, back off."
"I heard that recently someone from the Wanjian Sect has been slaying demons and monsters in my sect's territory..."
"Master, we have found out that he is just a disciple of Yulong Sword Sect, a subordinate sect of Wanjian Sect..." A secret guard in charge of intelligence stood up from behind.
"Tiger King, Monkey King..."
Two more people appeared in the crowd, one with a strong build and the other with a pointed face. "I'm here."
"I order you two to go to the Yulong Sword Sect and destroy the sect."
“Yes, sir…”
Suddenly, a man in a green shirt stepped out from the group of elders. "Master, this cannot happen. Our sect has been gathering strength for the past two years. If we attack the Jade Dragon Sword Sect now, it is very likely that the Ten Thousand Sword Sect will be implicated..."
The Monkey King grinned and sneered, "Third Elder, I think you are getting more and more cowardly as you grow older. How can my great Demon Sect be afraid of a sect like the Ten Thousand Swords Sect? If he dares to attack, I, the Monkey King, will kill him immediately."
"Okay, the decision I made will not be changed."
"Master, please think twice. It's been a long time since we built up such a huge fortune. We can't—"
Before he could finish his words, Zhou Qiong, who was sitting on the magic dragon chair, stretched out his right hand. In an instant, a huge dark hand from the sky grabbed the Third Elder, and no matter how the Third Elder struggled, he could not break free.
The third elder suddenly bit his tongue and shouted "Ba Tian Demon Body...", and a light appeared on his body, but the big hand just clenched it lightly, and the light disappeared in an instant.
"Great Elder, save me." He could only shout loudly.
It happened very quickly, and by the time everyone reacted, the Third Elder was already dying in the giant's hand.
The great elder who had been resting with his eyes closed also opened his eyes. An incredible expression appeared in his eyes. "Master, please give him a chance."
"For the sake of the Great Elder, you will go to the back mountain to reflect on your mistakes for a year." With a slight wave of his hand, the Third Elder disappeared in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already in the back mountain to reflect on his mistakes.
"Remember, no one is allowed to refute what I say from now on."
Zhou Qiong was very pleased with the Third Elder's sudden opposition. He had originally wanted to find someone to make an example of, but the Twelve Demon Kings were all promoted by him later, so he couldn't use this trick.
The remaining four hall masters and the eight elders in the elders' group, except for Li Changsheng of Qinglong Hall, were all old men who followed his father. They did not have a strong sense of awe towards him, so the third elder's move was just in time to put it to good use.
Sure enough, both the people from the elders group and the four hall masters bowed their heads deeply. You have to know that the third elder has the cultivation level of a mid-stage Martial Emperor.
They were among the top few in the entire Demon Cult, but they were subdued by Zhou Qiong. The Twelve Demon Kings were even more excited, and their eyes looking at Zhou Qiong were extremely hot.
At the outskirts of the Demonic Cult, in a Yuelai Inn, three or five men and women were eating at a table with swords slung around their waists.
A very pretty woman in a light green gown said, "Brother Wu, this time we are out to exorcise demons and monsters, which can be regarded as acting on behalf of heaven..."
A thin man in a white shirt next to him took over the conversation, "Of course, the demon cult is the root of trouble, everyone should get rid of them as soon as possible."
"Brother Jing, I heard that you were accepted by Wanjianmen. Is that true?"
"Of course, Senior Brother Jing is a talent that our Jade Dragon Sword Sect only sees once in a century. At such a young age, he has already cultivated to the peak of martial arts master and will soon break through to the Martial Marquis. He has also practiced the Jade Dragon Sword Technique to a small degree of success. After entering the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he will definitely be a prominent figure."
"But I heard that the leader of the Demon Cult has reached the level of Martial Emperor at the age of 21."
The young man called Senior Brother Jing was enjoying the praises from his fellow disciples, but he didn't expect someone to mention the leader of the Demon Cult. He wanted to say something harsh, but he didn't dare to say it.
"Eat quickly. We have been out for a month. It is time to go back to the sect and rest..."
With a loud bang, the door of the inn was instantly broken. "It's time to take a rest. The King of Hell misses you."
A group of people walked in from the gate, led by two people, one with a burly build and the other with a pointed face.
“How is this possible? This shouldn’t be—” The man called Senior Brother Jing was so frightened when he saw the two of them that he sat on the ground.
He knew these two people. When he came here, he paid special attention to the portraits of the high-ranking members of the Demon Cult. He originally wanted to be prepared for any eventuality, but he didn't expect to actually meet them.
How could they have provoked these two big guys when they just killed some small figures of the Demon Cult? These two were the Demon Tiger King and the Demon Monkey King, both of whom were at the peak of the Martial King level. You should know that the strongest leader of their Jade Dragon Sword Sect was only at the high level of the Martial King level. There was only this one, and the rest did not even have a Martial King level.
These two people were enough to destroy the Jade Dragon Sword Sect. How could they deal with small people like them? He didn't expect that he guessed correctly, that they were here to destroy the Jade Dragon Sword Sect, and destroying them was just a side job.
"Brother Jing, what's wrong with you? Are they from the Demon Cult? Let's kill them right away."
The woman in green looked at Senior Brother Jing with admiration. Senior Brother Jing immediately stood up from the ground, ran to the people opposite, and knelt down.
"Master Tiger King, Master Monkey King, I didn't participate in this demon-eliminating operation at all. It was these few people who were doing it..." He turned around and pointed at his fellow disciples.
At this time, the other people also found something wrong and knew that they had met a powerful figure from the Demon Sect. The tall and thin Senior Brother Wu shouted, "Jingtian, you coward, it was a waste that I praised you just now, you are a waste..."
"The demon cult monster must be killed by everyone. Brothers, let's fight him to the death."
Several people picked up their swords at the same time and formed a simple sword formation.
