Ban Xiu Qing Feng

Chapter 1297 A Parasitic Demon Emperor

Liu Wuwang never dreamed he would witness such a scene.

He had poured all his strength into the attack and successfully struck Wu Tian, only for it to be a futile effort.

This was something he absolutely could not accept.

Wu Tian had transformed into a monstrous figure in his eyes, instilling a deep sense of fear within him.

Meanwhile, Wu Tian's expression remained unchanged.

His clothes were tattered, and his muscles shimmered with a dazzling golden light, upon which sacred dragons coiled.

An aura of boundless majesty emanated from him. He looked at Liu Wuwang and said, "Have you had enough?"

Liu Wuwang trembled all over, his gaze quivering slightly.

He knew very well that when Wu Tian caught the Wind God's Arrow, there had been no fluctuation of immortal energy from his body.

This meant Wu Tian had not used immortal energy to block his attack, but had caught it with his physical body alone!

But how could a person's physical body be so incredibly strong?

"Who… who are you, who exactly are you!" Liu Wuwang had asked this question for the umpteenth time.

Wu Tian gazed at him and said, "Who I am is not important. What matters is who you are."

"Do you really think I don't know what kind of schemes you've been hatching behind my back?"

"If I'm not mistaken, your so-called Grand Unity Golden Immortal status wasn't achieved through your own power, was it?"

Liu Wuwang trembled, a flicker of surprise flashing across his face.

He stammered, "What… what do you mean by that?"

Wu Tian said gravely, "There's no need to play dumb with me. I've dealt with the demon race quite a bit, and I know their stench like the back of my hand."

"You harbor the power of the demon race within you, am I right?"

Liu Wuwang's expression froze completely, his mind falling into a blank.

After a long moment, he finally said tremblingly, "What nonsense are you talking about? The demon race, what demon race?"

"Weren't the demon race destroyed long ago? Where are they now?"

"If you want to cause trouble for me, just say so. There's no need to make up such excuses to slander me."

"Slander you?" Wu Tian said coldly, "Even now, you refuse to admit it?"

"In that case, I'll kill you right now. I want to see if you'll call out to the demon race when death is upon you!"

With that, a bolt of lightning condensed above Wu Tian's head.

The lightning was exceptionally pure, exuding a sacred pressure, clearly a powerful technique.

Upon sensing that aura, Liu Wuwang exclaimed, "Sacred Dragon Power? How can you possess Sacred Dragon Power!"

Wu Tian offered no reply. With a slight movement of his thought, the lightning transformed into a golden beam of light, shooting directly towards Liu Wuwang!

Liu Wuwang's face contorted in alarm. Knowing Wu Tian held nothing back, he was thrown into a panic, his expression instantly turning incredibly ferocious.

"Damn it!" he roared. The next moment, the lightning exploded upon him.

The golden lightning illuminated the surroundings, blinding to the eyes.

After the lightning dissipated, Wu Tian narrowed his eyes as he observed Liu Wuwang's state.

"As I thought," he said coldly, "Liu Wuwang, what else do you have to say for yourself now?"

At this moment, Liu Wuwang did not appear to be seriously injured.

This was illogical; with his strength, he should not have been able to withstand Wu Tian's attack.

A dense black energy emanated from him, and grotesque black markings extended like vines across his face.

Before long, his entire body was covered in these black markings, making him look as if he were tattooed all over, exuding a sinister aura.

His eyes were extremely dark. When he spoke, two voices emerged, "I didn't expect you to discover this."

"I felt a dangerous aura from you. It seems you cannot escape your connection to the Demon Slaying Palace, can you?"

Liu Wuwang's original voice, layered with a rougher one, spread through the air, filled with a malevolent energy.

To this, Wu Tian's expression remained indifferent. He said, "If I'm not mistaken, you must be a Demon Emperor?"

"During the ancient war, you suffered severe injuries, leaving you with only a single demonic soul."

"But for some reason, Liu Wuwang helped you break the seal, and you then possessed him. Am I correct?"

Liu Wuwang replied, "That's right, the situation is exactly as you described."

"Since you can guess so accurately, it seems you've had quite a bit of dealings with our demon race."

"But I'm surprised you dare to be so arrogant in front of me. Aren't you afraid of our demon race?"

Wu Tian sneered, "The demon race? What is there to fear."

"You lost to us in ancient times, and you will meet the same fate now."

"You want to win a battle you lost before; aren't you thinking too much?"

Liu Wuwang laughed heartily, "Arrogant! You are truly arrogant!"

"Don't think I don't know that your human race is extremely fragile now. Ever since the Sacred Dragon fell, you haven't even been able to produce a true Immortal King."

"With your current strength, how can you oppose the demon race? In the end, you'll all just be walking towards death!"

Wu Tian raised an eyebrow, "Is that so? Then tell me, what is this Sacred Dragon Power I possess?"

Liu Wuwang's smile froze abruptly, replaced by an expression of astonishment.

He scrutinized Wu Tian and said, "Indeed, I felt Sacred Dragon Power from you just now. What's going on?"

"The Sacred Dragon has fallen, so why do you possess its power? This shouldn't be happening, it truly shouldn't be!"

Wu Tian sneered, "The Sacred Dragon has indeed fallen, but its power has been passed down, and I am the new generation's Sacred Dragon."

"Furthermore, let me tell you some news you don't know. While this world may not have Immortal Kings, I am about to open the Sacred Dragon Treasure."

"The Sacred Dragon Treasure contains a vast collection of Divine Crowns, and you should know what Divine Crowns represent, shouldn't you?"

"What did you say?!" The successive explosive pieces of information almost made Liu Wuwang lose his ability to think.

He stared intently at Wu Tian, trying to find a flaw in his demeanor.

But from beginning to end, Wu Tian merely looked at him calmly, showing no hint of guilt.

Liu Wuwang finally confirmed it; Wu Tian's words were all true.

His intelligence was flawed; the current world was not as weak as he had imagined!

He felt both shocked and enraged, then said grimly, "If that's the case, then I absolutely cannot let you leave."

"Today, you will die here!"
