Chapter 5785: The Big Pot
"Give it to me."
"Give me what?"
The old man saw Long Chen reaching out to him and couldn't help but respond coldly. "What? You don't know yet? Read it yourself. Read the chapters without errors. Just Google it."
"Of course, it's Lady Yumo's life emblem. You just recorded everything with the Image-Capturing Jade. Is there any point in keeping the emblem?" Long Chen said casually.
"How did you know?"
The old man was taken aback. He didn't expect that all his actions would be seen by Long Chen.
"Alright, we're not that young anymore. Can we communicate more efficiently? Give me the emblem, and I can report back. As for your affairs with Lady Yumo, I don't have the authority to inquire. I only need to carry out the tasks assigned to me by Lady Yumo." Long Chen said.
The old man hesitated for a moment. Long Chen was right; he had recorded everything with the Image-Capturing Jade. There was solid evidence, and there was no need to fear Lady Yumo's denial.
In the end, Long Chen took Lady Yumo's life emblem and left. When he was out of the old man's sight, he heaved a long sigh of relief. The pressure in front of Mid-Tier Purple Crown Divine Emperor was truly extraordinary. Long Chen even felt sweat on his forehead.
When he had come out earlier, Long Chen deliberately looked "pale" and reduced his aura. He paid attention to every detail, afraid of leaving any loopholes.
Now that he had successfully obtained Lady Yumo's life emblem, he had considered trying to use it to sneak into the Demon Clan's treasure trove. However, Long Chen had already successfully infiltrated the Demon Bone Wicked Moon into the sacrificial altar. It was time to quit while he was ahead and avoid exposing himself prematurely.
On the other hand, Long Chen wasn't very confident in Luo Yanfeng and the others. They were currently in a period of rapid growth, and after depleting their energy this time, they would only need a few hours to return to the battlefield. Anything could happen during the Demon Clan's high-level meeting, and it was necessary to stay vigilant.
Furthermore, once Long Chen entered the Demon Clan's lair, he would be far from the battlefield, and the Heavenly Dao Tree would be out of its range, preventing it from collecting Heavenly Dao Fruits. This would be a significant loss for the Luo family.
Long Chen left the underground lair and arrived at the Earth City. When he stood before the city gate once again, he saw the same gatekeeper.
The old man's face changed dramatically when he saw Long Chen appear unsteadily once again. He was about to scold him, but Long Chen suddenly showed him a life emblem and waved it in front of him.
"Old man, I have a status now. If you dare to scold me, be careful I smack you with my big mouth."
"You..."
The old man was both shocked and angered. He recognized this life emblem, which meant that he had no authority over Long Chen. After all, he was just a gatekeeper, not as important as the guardian of the sacrificial altar. Anyone with such a badge was beyond his reach.
"Who are you to talk to me like that? You're just someone else's plaything. Why so arrogant? And 'smack me with your big mouth'? Who do you think you are?" the old man scolded angrily as Long Chen swaggered away in front of him.
"Pop!"
Long Chen slapped the table. When he had been scolded earlier, he had managed to suppress his anger. However, after seeing someone just returning from the battlefield with a disdainful look, he slapped them and sent them flying.
"What are you looking at? Are you provoking me?" Long Chen pointed at them as he passed by a group of people.
One of them had just shown a hint of disdain, and he was slapped and knocked down immediately.
"You little brat, what are you looking for..."
The Demon Clan expert, infuriated, had just stood up when Long Chen poked a finger through his brow, causing his body to slump to the ground, lifeless.
Seeing this, the others were both shocked and angered. Who could have expected that someone like Ying Wu Dao, who was known for pleasing women and was seen as a coward, would dare to kill someone now that he was out?
"A bunch of idiots. Count yourselves lucky that we're so close to the city. Otherwise, none of you would survive." Long Chen pointed at these dumbfounded Demon Clan disciples with his finger, his voice cold. He then left.
Long Chen didn't dare to cause a big disturbance here because the high-level Demon Clan members were having a meeting, and there were many powerful experts present. If he angered them, he would be in big trouble.
Long Chen appeared so domineering that he left this group of people in awe. It was only when Long Chen had walked far away that they finally reacted. They carried the body of the person he had killed and rushed to the city gate.
"Big trouble, Lady Yumo, Ying Wu Dao has gone to the battlefield and killed us..."
They saw the gatekeeper at the city gate and shouted loudly.
"Shut up, don't mention that brat to me. Go report to your master. If he wants to settle the score, he can go find Lady Yumo. Get lost and don't bother me." The gatekeeper waved his hand in annoyance. A regular disciple wouldn't lead to conflict between two Demon Clan branches. Killing a neighbor's dog might lead to a feud, but no one would care about squashing a neighbor's ant.
Demon Clan experts were numerous, and this was the perfect opportunity to eliminate most of them, leaving only the true elites. The death or life of these "small fry" didn't matter to anyone.
As soon as they heard the name Lady Yumo, these people shivered. Lady Yumo was notorious for her ruthlessness among the Demon Clan, and there were very few among her peers who weren't afraid of her.
This group of people left dejectedly, carrying the dead body. Meanwhile, Lady Yumo, who was currently in the midst of her meeting, was unaware that a huge black pot had been placed on her head.
In the meeting, her expression was solemn, but in her mind, she was thinking about how to have a passionate encounter with Ying Wu Dao.
The meeting took place in a cave, with hundreds of high-ranking members of the Demon Clan sitting on the ground. The leader was an old man with three eyes, and his face was imposing. The third eye faintly flashed with endless lightning, emitting a terrifying pressure.
"Everyone, express your opinions!"
"Now that we have already ascertained the basic strength of the Crimson Blood Clan, we are far superior to them by tenfold. There's no need to continue probing. It's best not to let the night drag on. We should strike decisively to avoid giving them any chance to recuperate. The saying 'Opportunity knocks but once' holds true throughout the ages." A short and chubby Demon Clan elder spoke.
"I agree. Let's not drag it out. We should mobilize our forces and crush them with overwhelming force, leaving them no breathing room." Another powerful Demon Clan member chimed in.
"In addition,
there's another matter to consider, the issue of the Rainbow Wing Clan," the three-eyed elder added.
At the mention of the Rainbow Wing Clan, the entire assembly erupted in whispers. Someone spoke loudly, "The Rainbow Wing Clan must be completely eliminated. We must kill them all and leave no evidence. Now that the Nine Heavens are connected, if this secret is discovered by the Rainbow Wing Clan, we are dead for sure."
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
"Count me in."
"..."
Almost everyone agreed, and Lady Yumo, although reluctant, had no choice but to nod her head. In the end, the vote was almost unanimous, and the Rainbow Wing Clan was to be completely wiped out, with their history covered up.
"Oh no, just an hour ago, Ying Wu Dao took Lady Yumo's life emblem and escaped," a voice suddenly interrupted the meeting. The entire assembly erupted in shock.
"This..."
Lady Yumo's face turned pale.
