Chapter 383 Little Ancestor, I Can Also Be a Mount
"Little Fire Fox, that thing is somewhat sinister. Take us to a deserted place so that the City of Hundred Clans will not suffer calamity."
Bai Qian saw the demon soldiers retreating from the sky and immediately spoke to the Samadhi Fire Fox.
"Understood."
The Samadhi Fire Fox did not ask further, conjuring a demon cloud with a wave, ready to invite the little ancestor to ascend.
At this moment, the peacock demoness Kong Yu radiated a dazzling five-colored light and transformed into a beautiful, inverted-flying peacock.
She respectfully said to the two girls, "Honored little ancestors, please allow this humble one to carry you."
Damn, Caiyu Marquis took the initiative first.
Why didn’t I think of that?
Girls all like beautiful things, and Chen Qianqian and Bai Qian were no exception.
"Alright."
The two girls answered in unison.
The Samadhi Fire Fox stood stunned, staring at his crimson demon cloud, muttering under his breath, "Little ancestor, I can also be a mount."
Hearing this, Bai Qian said with exasperation, "You had better inherit your grandfather’s will and become a Great Sage as soon as possible."
Samadhi Fire Fox: "…"
Thus, the demon kings escorted Chen Qianqian and Bai Qian away under the watchful eyes of countless cultivators in the City of Hundred Clans.
The great figures within the city all let out long sighs of relief at the sight.
Tiger City Lord was the first to speak, "Prepare gifts. This old man will pay a visit to the Thousand Mile Trading Company."
"Yes."
The advisor hastily responded. Having served the City Lord for so many years, it was the first time he had witnessed such a scene.
Only a fool would fail to understand that from this day on, the Thousand Mile Trading Company would become the foremost business in the City of Hundred Clans, as long as they did nothing to provoke heaven’s wrath.
No other power would dare move against the Thousand Mile Trading Company.
The leaders of the other forces also made the same decision immediately.
Since they had no qualifications to curry favor with the little ancestor herself, they would at least curry favor with the forces associated with her. Perhaps one day they could still form a connection.
In less than half an hour.
Outside the Thousand Mile Trading Company, the city’s great figures gathered. Smiles covered every face, as if their relationship with the company had always been extraordinary.
Such a sight left the cultivators of the City of Hundred Clans in disbelief.
The most shocked of all were the cultivators of the Thousand Mile Trading Company. Still reeling from the earlier shock, they now faced this new scene.
The Samadhi Fire Fox muttered, "It will not be easy to find a heavenly demon now."
Chen Qianqian smiled, "That is easy. No matter what happens later, do not scream. Just guard against outside cultivators attempting a sneak attack."
The demon kings all nodded. To expend a little demon power in exchange for unveiling the secrets of such a mysterious sheepskin scroll—where else could one find such fortune?
"Junior sister, begin."
As Chen Qianqian spoke, divine light radiated from her body. At first, the demon kings did not feel anything unusual about this light.
Because everyone’s attention was drawn to the divine light of the demon god radiating from Bai Qian.
Such a powerful heavenly fiend aura—worthy of being a saint’s direct descendant. This innate bloodline truly made the demon kings envious.
Yet soon the demon kings felt their hair stand on end. Instinctively, they turned toward the source of the aura that made them sense danger.
They saw that within the divine light enveloping Chen Qianqian was a terrifying demonic aura.
She was not deliberately releasing any pressure, and the demonic aura was continuously being absorbed by the sheepskin scroll.
Even so, the sight left the demon kings deeply apprehensive.
"Brother, you were born in Qingqiu and are well-traveled. Have you ever heard of such a strange divine body?"
Caiyu Marquis spoke while unconsciously stepping back a few paces.
"This… this is the legendary Demon Heaven Body, one of the rarest divine physiques. It is said that only cultivators with heavenly demon bloodlines can awaken this spirit. Every cultivator with a Demon Heaven Body is destined to become someone before whom the entire Tianxuan Continent trembles."
The Samadhi Fire Fox paused, then continued, "The disciples of the Qiankun Great Sage are indeed extraordinary."
Their murmurs did not disturb the two girls as they poured demonic aura and fiend power into the sheepskin scroll.
As their power deepened, the scroll gradually revealed its true form.
A clear, massive gate appeared upon it.
On the gate were inscribed three incomprehensible characters in ancient demon script.
The demon kings all looked bewildered.
"Dragon Demon Hall."
The instant Bai Qian spoke the words, three demon marquises trembled involuntarily.
The Samadhi Fire Fox exclaimed, "Little ancestor, stop at once. The Dragon Demon Hall is no place for juniors like us."
Caiyu Marquis quickly echoed, "Yes, little ancestor, without a Great Sage present, if we enter the Dragon Demon Hall it will be certain death."
The Giant Deer Marquis instinctively stepped back. "Everyone, there is a fire in Yingchou Nation. I must return at once."
"You cannot return."
Chen Qianqian’s voice was calm, yet those three words made the three demon marquises collapse to the ground.
Refusing to believe it, the Giant Deer Marquis transformed into a streak of light and shot skyward.
Boom!
With a deafening crash, he struck something unseen and was hurled back to the ground.
The demon kings looked upward to see a barrier of fused demon and fiend aura enclosing them.
"It’s over, all over."
The Samadhi Fire Fox stared at the barrier with despair.
Several demon kings pressed him urgently, "Fire Fox King, stop saying it’s over. Tell us—what is wrong with the Dragon Demon Hall?"
"Alas…"
The Samadhi Fire Fox sighed. "It begins with the great war of heavenly fiends and heavenly demons a million years ago.
In that war, three Great Saints—one each from the demon race, dragon race, and human race—fought against a dragon saint who had been demonized. That dragon saint, seeking the throne of God King, devoured the Heart of Heavenly Demon. But his will was not firm, and he was corrupted into a quasi–God King.
He opened the Gate Beyond the Domain, summoning countless heavenly demons into the world.
That battle saw hundreds of thousands of cultivators of Xuanzhou fighting for decades before the heavenly demons were finally suppressed.
The three saints together shattered the Dragon Demon into pieces, ending that long and bitter war.
It is said that when the three saints destroyed the Dragon Demon, they also demolished the Dragon Demon Hall, shifting mountains and rivers to erase it from the world.
Since then, no one has known its location. Yet once every thousand years or so, cultivators stumble upon it. Under its temptations, some fall into demonhood, while others are lured inside and become its blood food."
Caiyu King asked, "Did the three saints not kill the Dragon Demon? How can these things still appear?"
The Samadhi Fire Fox replied, "Saints are not so easily slain. Though the Dragon Demon was torn apart and its soul shattered, fragments of its soul and blood transformed into myriad things across the world.
Even saints could not retrieve every fragment, so they warned all: anything related to the Dragon Demon must be destroyed without exception."
The Giant Deer Marquis muttered, "Then this sheepskin scroll is formed from the Dragon Demon’s soul or blood?"
The Samadhi Fire Fox nodded. "Correct. Now that it has absorbed the terrifying heavenly fiend and heavenly demon aura of the two little ancestors, it will soon activate the teleportation altar and send us to the Dragon Demon Hall."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a beam of demonic light burst forth from the scroll in the girls’ hands, shooting straight into the sky.
