Episode 101: Murderous Intent

  Jin Peng Yao Wang: With a 3,000-year cultivation base, equivalent to a Second-Tier Loose Immortal, he is one of the Yao Kings under the Wan Yao Alliance, responsible for governing all demon clans in Longtan City. His true form is that of a Golden Roc, said to possess the inherited bloodline of the ancient divine beast, the Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird. His speed is unmatched, making him the most promising Yao King among the Golden Roc clan.

  "What about the things I let you investigate, have you determined the specific location of the Three Yin Territory?" In the villa's grand hall, Jin Peng Yao Wang had a solemn expression on his face, and in his eyes, two shocking rays of light swept across the two small demons in front of him, exuding a chilling sharpness.

  "In response to the Demon King's words, we have investigated several suspicious locations around Longtan City and can almost confirm the location of the Three Yin area." Facing the demon king, the enchanting woman Silver Ring had no coquettish attitude at this moment, her voice slow and measured: "However, we found that the yin energy in that Three Yin area is extremely dense, far exceeding what Your Majesty previously mentioned. Therefore, I think it's possible that besides the Golden Armor Corpse, there may also be a Golden Armor Corpse King, or even the legendary..."

  "Huh?" Upon hearing this, the Golden Peng Demon King was also stunned for a moment. If the Golden Armor Corpse King really existed, it wouldn't be a small matter at all. If an even more terrifying existence appeared, not to mention him, but looking at the entire Huaxia cultivation world, there probably wouldn't be many people who could calm the situation down. At this point, he slightly furrowed his brow and quickly turned his head, his sharp gaze falling on Lai San's body.

  It's not that Jin Peng Yao Wang is overly suspicious, but based on what he knows, there is only one place with three yin energies near Longtan City. Moreover, 800 years ago, it had already been disturbed once, and the yin energy had exploded and dissipated. Although 800 years have passed since then, it's absolutely impossible for such dense yin energy to accumulate again. In his opinion, even if it were Jin Jia Shi Wang, or even a Golden Armor Corpse, it should be barely possible at best.

  "Gulu, gulu," he swallowed a mouthful of saliva unconsciously and hastily replied: "In response to the words of the Great King of Demons, my wife said that the yin energy there is indeed very dense. Moreover, I also felt it, there's a terrifying existence that makes me extremely fearful."

  "So it seems, this is indeed a problem." The Golden Phoenix Demon King nodded: "However, no matter what, I will definitely take the golden armor corpse nurtured in this three-yin land. This time, I must let Zhang Zhenyi of Longhu Mountain taste the feeling of being surrounded by people. Otherwise, it's hard to dispel the hatred in my heart."

  "Yes, yes, yes!" Lai San and Yin Huan hastily responded in unison. They had heard about the grudge between Jin Peng, the demon king of the Golden Roc tribe, and Zhang Zhen, the guardian elder of Dragon Tiger Mountain. However, this matter was not something that these two small demons could intervene in. On one side was the Golden Roc tribe, on the other was Dragon Tiger Mountain; neither side was someone they could afford to provoke.

  However, King Jinpeng obviously wasn't a vegetarian either: "You two go and investigate that Three Yin area again for me. I always feel like there's something fishy going on here."

  "There's a problem." Lai San and Yin Huan fell silent for a moment, then suddenly, Yin Huan seemed to remember something and exclaimed: "I remembered! When I was investigating the Three Shadows Land, I met a blonde foreign woman who could use heterodox magic, her strength was quite formidable. Your Majesty the Demon King, do you think it might be related to this matter?"

  "The land of triple yin, a blonde foreign woman, skilled in using heterodox magic" The Golden Peng Demon King's eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if he had made some guesses. However, the strengthened yin energy of the land of triple yin seemed to be connected to this foreign woman, but the key point was that even he couldn't guess it.

  "Could there be some kind of conspiracy?" Silver Ring said, but suddenly her face changed as she saw two strands of dark spiritual energy passing through the wall and entering the villa's main hall. She couldn't help but exclaim: "This is my dark spiritual energy!" Before Golden Peng Demon King arrived, Silver Ring had been trying to sense the two strands of dark spiritual energy that had separated from her, but there was no effect at all, which made her very anxious. After all, this was the dark spiritual energy she had cultivated with great difficulty, and if it were lost, her cultivation would decline by at least a fraction. Now, seeing these two strands of dark spiritual energy return on their own, she was shocked and hurriedly stretched out her hand to receive them with extreme joy.

  "Be careful, don't touch it!" A flash of golden light flickered in the eyes of Jin Peng Yao Wang. Although he didn't know what was happening yet, as a mighty Yao Wang with 3,000 years of cultivation, he couldn't be underestimated. He was far superior to Lai San and Yin Huan, two other powerful demons. So even though it was an emergency, he still vaguely sensed something ominous and immediately let out a loud shout.

  "Pffft! Pffft!" However, the loud voice of Jin Peng Yao Wang had not yet fallen when the two dark spiritual auras suddenly burst open near the silver ring, accompanied by a dazzling flash of cyan light. Two faintly discernible cyan streams of light had already entered her body in the blink of an eye.

  However, the two strands of dark spiritual energy that had been cultivated by Silver Ring for only 500 years were not enough to form a massive power even if they suddenly burst open. But for Silver Ring, this was extremely inauspicious. After all, it was her own dark spirit that had suddenly dispersed, causing her to suffer a severe setback. This single blow was like a giant hammer weighing thousands of kilograms smashing into her chest. Silver Ring let out a mournful and pained cry as a stream of bright red blood spurted out of her mouth.

  Having suffered such a severe injury, even an ordinary great demon would probably not be able to withstand it, let alone a small demon with only 500 years of cultivation. At this time, she still had the opportunity to dodge the two green rays that shot out from the two dark divine spirit wills, but instead was pierced right through!

  Those two green rays were initially just a tiny, imperceptible point, but after entering the body of Silver Ring, they suddenly became a different scene. The green light flashed and flickered, like two huge mouths crazily absorbing the blood and energy from Silver Ring's body. In an instant, it transformed into two rainbow-colored lights that enveloped Silver Ring's enchanting and delicate body. With just one gentle twist, fresh blood and flesh flew everywhere, and Silver Ring's mournful cries still echoed in the ears. Her entire body had already been reduced to a pile of minced meat and polluted blood under the swift and merciless killing by those two green lights.

  "Despicable!" Seeing this situation, even Jin Peng Yao Wang couldn't help but get extremely angry. His own subordinate was killed right in front of him! No matter what the circumstances were, his face had already been utterly lost!

  In a fit of rage, he suddenly waved his hand, and a dazzling golden light flashed out, instantly cutting through the air with a whooshing sound, towards those two dazzling cyan auras.

  The Golden Peng clan inherited from the ancient divine beast, the Golden Winged Peng. This is a divine ability that traverses the heavens and earth with the primordial yin-yang two energies. Although no one in the Golden Peng clan has been able to cultivate both yin-yang energies until now, there are not a few who have successfully cultivated a single lineage. The Golden Peng Demon King cultivates the energy of pure yang, and at this moment, he is displaying it, which is indeed quite powerful.

  Those two green auras were undoubtedly controlled by top-notch masters from the Scattered Immortal Realm and above, and were not ordinary objects. With Jin Peng Yao Wang's eyesight, how could he not see that? He had used his most prized divine ability, intending to intimidate his opponent.

  "Clang!" The golden light of the extreme yang suddenly collided with the two cyan-colored auras in mid-air, instantly producing a massive sound like the clash of gold and iron. The entire villa hall was shaken by an earthquake-like tremor, as a fierce gust of air burst forth, sweeping through the hall like a raging storm.

  Those two cyan auras were no match for the golden light of the Sun, which was controlled by the Golden Peng Demon King. One of them retreated in a reverse spin, but they still entwined each other like a tangled mess, and after several rotations, they had already dissipated the enormous power that the golden light had unleashed into nothingness.

  "Hmm?! I didn't expect that there would be an expert here, I'd like to see just how capable you are!" The two cyan auras rotated and a faint voice suddenly emerged. Immediately after, a slight tremor occurred and the cyan aura transformed once again into two streams of light that merged together, resembling a sharp sword tearing through the sky, directly attacking the Golden Peng Demon King's vitals with a burst of energy.

  Upon hearing this familiar voice, Lai San couldn't help but widen his eyes. He still had Lin Xiao Yun's protective jade pendant on his mind and how could he forget Li Yan's voice? However, he never thought that the next time he heard Li Yan's voice would be in such a situation.

  He was shocked, but the Golden Peng Demon King was also extremely surprised. To be able to control two streams of light from a distant distance and engage in a battle with himself, his opponent's strength was formidable, and it had already reached an unimaginable level. However, he couldn't understand why such a top-notch expert would stoop to dealing with the two small demons under his command.

  "Hmph! You're hiding your head and showing your tail, just waiting to be taught a lesson!" As the Golden Phoenix Demon King, he naturally had his own pride. Without even seeing the opponent's shadow, if he were to retreat now, what was the point of cultivating? He might as well buy a block of tofu and smash his head against it instead.

  At this moment, a long whistle came from his mouth, and the golden light of Taiyang was collected in his palm, transformed into a golden long spear. With a swing of his hand, the spearhead broke through the air, transformed into a golden light, bursting before his eyes, and entwined with the cyan airflow that burst out of the air, roaring and fighting together.
