Chapter 378: The Unpredictable Lady

"The human Zhong Shan Clan member is dead in the end."

In the Desolation City, Demon Queen was donned in clothes of full black, rays flashed in her eyes and she mumbled, "The demon god came out and struck him to death in before the eyes of many, there is no way he could still be living. With the death of this Zhong Shan Clan member, the demon race and celestial race have one of our greatest enemies taken care of."

"That's hard to say for sure."

From behind Demon Queen, a young demon walked to her side, he had a warm bright smile on his face and when the sunlight shone on him, a three-headed shadow was laid out on the ground, yet, this young demon had only one head.

However, this bizarre shadow only lasted for a blink of an eye before the three heads turned into one.

"Oh? What does Mister Feng have to say?" Demon Queen turned and asked with a smile.

The young demon's skin was light and his lips were bright red, he said with a smile, "If Demon Saint escaped his death, then Zhong Shan Clan member can do so too. He cultivated the[Mystic Duplication Technique]and it was only his demon incarnation that was killed. While he himself ran away using the underground toward the Eastern Sea, he can hide it from the demon god, but he can never hide it from me."

Demon Queen was surprised, she furrowed her brows and said, "[Mystic Duplication Technique]?"

Mister Feng answered placidly, "He is just like me, proficient in the art of[Mystic Duplication Technique], but what I didn't foresee was his cultivation progress on the[Mystic Duplication Technique]. Throwing out the incarnation to die while he freed himself, he is indeed really a man who competed against Demon Saint and I. Demon Queen, the last ordeal for Demon Saint's survival has arrived, if he can survive this, then we shall talk about the cooperation between the demon race and the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, otherwise...."

This Mister Feng then left as if he was never there, Demon Queen was alert and she quickly looked up into the sky where she saw Tian Mo Concubine and the ladies rushing back into the Desolation City.

"Yun'er, hand over Demon Saint's soul and the Soul Burial Whip."

The ladies surrounded Demon Queen and Tian Mo Concubine let out the Gu insects, beleaguering Demon Queen in the center, she then chuckled and said, "Yun'er, you are exposed, hiding Demon Saint is not a small matter. Imagine what will happen if I tell the demon race about it, if you can continue living in the Eight Barren, I might as well follow behind you as a servant!"

Demon Queen laughed and said, "Tian'er is still so naughty, but I'm very puzzled, how do you know Demon Saint is with me?"

She asked curiously, "Demon Saint and Zhong Shan Clan member's battle was intense and terrible, his mortal body was destroyed and he had to expose his demon spirit which was then killed by the Eastern Sea Ao Fenglou. Everything was so well-planned and there were no flaws at all, how did you figure it out?"

"The Soul Burial Whip."

Tian Mo Concubine surged out the dark needles and she said with a smile, "His prowess is about the same as the Zhong Shan Clan member and is not any weaker, with the addition of the Soul Burial Whip, even the Zhong Shan Clan member wouldn't have the chance to win against him, at most, they would die together. However, it is incredibly strange that the Zhong Shan Clan member suffered only light injuries and Demon Saint didn't use the Soul Burial Whip at all. So, it wouldn't take much thinking for me to realize that the other demon divine weapon is with you. Demon Saint has a bad reputation now and it is impossible for him to rise in the demon race again, more so, the eight saint clans will watch out for him and exterminate him whenever possible. So, rather than spending the rest of his life in the dark, why not put on a show to the world and fake his death and then live with another identity, start a new life?"

Demon Queen nodded, she took out an eighteen sectioned sword breaker, holding it in her hands and all of a sudden, the eighteen sections moved away from one another, before turning into a long whip, curling around Demon Queen like a living snake, she said, "Demon Saint had that exact thought and in the future when he ascends back to the level of the deities, who would know that he was once the great Demon Saint? Demon Saint was killed right before the eyes of the demons and none would ever doubt his death. After all, he was once the greatest existence of the demon race, he had the means to survive even the hardest predicaments. However, I didn't expect that Tian'er you would realize it all, you are truly amazing.

Tian Mo Concubine closely watched the Soul Burial Whip and cast out the five light wheels. In her light wheels, there were many rays of demonic lights moving around lifting a soul weapon in the air, she chuckled, "Yun'er, it seems like you are planning to defend your dead husband with your life?"

Demon Queen looked at the soul weapon and her beautiful countenance turned solemn, with her prowess now, she couldn't see exactly what it was but she sure could sense the demon godly aura emanating from it; it was a demon divine weapon!

"I've heard that Tian'er, you, once entered the Void World and were adored by an existence there, seems like it's true."

Demon Queen suddenly smoothed out her stiff face, she forced Demon Saint's soul out from the Soul Burial Whip and she said chuckling, "Big sister is helpless, I need to plan for my life and thus, I can only give Demon Saint's soul to you."

Demon Saint's soul was stunned, he was exposed bare in front of the ladies and was in disbelief.

Without the protection of the Soul Burial Whip, his strong soul wouldn't last long and started disintegrating into little lights.

"Yun'er, you...."

Demon Queen said apologetically to him, "Darling, when a time of crisis arrives, it would always be every man for himself. I can't even protect myself, let alone protect you?"

Demon Saint's soul was disintegrating under the hot sun and he shouted, "Mister Feng, Mister Feng, our cooperation...."

Even after his soul completely dispersed into the thin air, that Mister Feng never appeared or spoke a word.

Demon Queen was placid, she was still clenching the Soul Burial Whip in her hand and she said while smiling, "Tian'er, are you assured now?"

Tian Mo Concubine was shocked by the sudden change, she didn't expect that Demon Queen would give up Demon Saint's soul so easily and even watch while he died.

"Yun'er is really callous, being able to betray your husband so easily."

Tian Mo Concubine mulled, she looked at the Soul Burial Whip and hesitated for a second before she gave up forcing Demon Queen to hand it over. After all, the Soul Burial Whip was a demon divine weapon and Demon Queen wouldn't hand it over so easily. If she had to force Demon Queen into a battle to give the demon divine weapon over, the court ladies would be killed, even Tian Mo Concubine herself would suffer heavy injuries and her Gu insects would be nearly wiped away before they could kill Demon Queen.

Furthermore, if Tian Mo Concubine was heavily injured, she might not even be able to secure the Soul Burial Whip, the other demons would surely come after her for the demon divine weapon.

The two ladies were guarded against one another and suddenly, Tian Mo Concubine laughed sweetly, she walked over and hugged Demon Queen's arm, and said affectionately, "Sister, don't say it like that, I'm just playing with you, did I scare you?"

Demon Queen also smiled and answered, "Little sis, you have almost scared my little heart out of my body!"

The two were guarded against each other and although they were showing sweet smiles, they were both looking closely at each other's hands to prevent one another from galvanizing into action. All of a sudden, the two ladies moved away from one another and Tian Mo Concubine waved her hand in the air, stepping away from Demon Queen unwillingly, she said, "Little sis will invite sister to tea the next time."

Demon Queen watched as the ladies left and her beautiful countenance turned gloomy, she said softly, "Mister Feng, about our cooperation?"

The shadow then emerged again and Mister Feng walked out from the dark, he frowned and said, "Demon Saint just died like that? As for our cooperation, it has ended alongside his life, I don't think there is a need to discuss it anymore."

Demon Queen smiled gently, she had the air of an empress and she replied, "In fact, I think the death of Demon Saint has sparked the best cooperation we can have. Mister Feng is the most talented and prominent existence of the celestial race. As a great high priest of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, how can you not have a high priestess?"

Mister Feng's interest was piqued, he said, "You want to be my spouse? Tell me what makes you think you can be the Xiao Mang high priestess, the high priest's spouse?"

Demon Queen said sweetly, "Simple, at the same time that you are working with Demon Saint, you will have to guard against him as he was after all, the greatest existence of the demon race Eight Barren, the cooperation will be temporary but once the two of you have conquered the whole demon race and celestial race, you will turn against one another. But, with the Demon Saint dead now, I can help your demon incarnation conquer the demon race Eight Barren while your true self will conquer the celestial race. With that, you will be the king of half the world!"

Mister Feng laughed out loud, he flicked his finger and the heads of the demon Qi Practitioners far away exploded, killing them on the spot. He laughed and said, "Yun'er, you are really an amazing woman."

Demon Queen laid in his arms and chuckled, "You have no foundation in the demon race but I do. I also know a few spots where Demon Saint hid his treasures, they can be your financial support for establishing your own faction. In addition to me, what is there to stop you from conquering the demon race? With the whole Eight Barren demon race, can I have the spot of the high priestess?"

Mister Feng grabbed her shoulder and said, "In comparison to Demon Saint, you are way more useful and more reliable. Furthermore, you are such a beauty, of course you are qualified to be the high priestess."

He looked far away and said leisurely, "Three calamities brought the demon race down the hill, there are no leaders to speak for all demons and with my demon incarnation, I can rise as a new star in the demon race, way less obstructions in this than my former plan. As for the land on the other end of the ocean, things are much more complicated...."

Demon-dragon border, somewhere around the coastline of the Eastern Sea, the waves billowed heavily and every single wave was at least a thousand feet tall. All of a sudden, a young dragon surfaced from the bottom of the sea and his arrival alerted the sea creatures around.

There was a sea race Heavenly Dharma monster tasked to station the bottom of the sea, overlook the area and under his command were thousands of sea race Qi Practitioners. They had built a city on the sea bottom to better carry out their tasks of guarding the border.

The Heavenly Dharma sea monster saw the young dragon coming up from the sea bottom and he was shocked, he quickly swam over to inspect the unexpected guest.

The young dragon took out a token with the word 'Lou', the token was given to him by Ao Fenglou and as soon as he showed it to the sea monster, the latter quickly bowed and said, "Elder Ao Fenglou's token. By your looks, you are the honorable Mister Long Yue, may I ask of Mister...."

"Quiet and no questions."

Zhong Yue, who was now using the identity of Long Yue, waved his hand and said, "Where is your manor?"

The sea monster quickly said, "Just above us, on an island...."

Zhong Yue nodded and instructed him, "Bring me to it."

Moments later, Zhong Yue and the sea monster arrived at the lone island. The sea monster morphed into a human-like form and served the young dragon a cup of tea. Zhong Yue sat down, he drank a cup of tea and suddenly, a surge of dragon Qi shot up to the sky and formed the Thousand Dragons Barrier in mid-air, shining toward the demon land.

The sea monster was surprised and puzzled, Zhong Yue then said, "I have guest coming. When he arrives, serve the tea and leave immediately, speak no words and do nothing more than what I say, otherwise, I can't guarantee your life."

The sea monster was afraid and burst out in a cold sweat.

Moments later, Feng Xiaozhong descended from the sky and walked into the manor, Zhong Yue stood up and welcomed him with a smile, "Senior Martial Brother Feng, please sit."

The Heavenly Dharma sea monster then quickly served the tea and left the manor immediately.

The two sat down, Zhong Yue took out the Demon God Contracted Puppet and said smilingly, "As per our deal, senior martial brother, I've brought you the Demon God Contracted Puppet and it is now yours. I suppose senior martial brother has seen him already, what do you think of him?"

"Not as valuable as you." Feng Xiaozhong scrutinized his junior martial brother from top to bottom, his eyes filled with madness as he spoke.
