Chapter 1014: Saving the Day
Xiao Zhang immediately realized this and was very annoyed: "Stop shouting, that senior won't come."
"Because this Demon Lord was hired by Father, specifically to kill the senior you mentioned..."
Xiao Xu was completely dumbfounded when he heard Xiao Zhang's words.
Was the Demon Lord summoned by my father?
why?
"In this matter, I was wrong, I was wrong, I am a sinner to the family."
"I was too narrow-minded. When the engagement was called off, I was so resentful that I acted rashly and conspired with several elders to discuss it."
"In the end, we decided to summon the Demon Lord to wash away our shame. But who would have thought that the Demon Clan, so wicked, would turn around and slaughter my Xiao family!!!"
Xiao Zhang can regret it as much as he wants.
If he hadn't used both hands to block the Demon Lord's attack, he would have been in serious trouble.
Xiao Xu was completely dumbfounded.
I can't believe it even if you beat me to death; this is how things really happened.
“Xue’er, you should leave quickly and find a place where no one knows you to start a new life. Let your father bear all the sins.”
"I have no face to face our ancestors!"
"Also, the reason why you ignored the clansmen's ridicule and sarcasm towards you back then was also your father's fault."
"Dad thought that would motivate you and help you get back on your feet, but he didn't consider your feelings."
"You can't say that!" Xiao Xu cried out, "Father, go! Go! I'm already crippled, it doesn't matter to me, you have to stay!"
"You must revitalize the Xiao family. As long as you are alive, the Xiao family will still exist. You are young, so leveling up a new account is no problem."
The Demon Lord felt immensely humiliated when he saw them still discussing leveling up alternate accounts.
A mere Nascent Soul cultivator dares to try and stop him!
May everyone be happy!
The Demon Lord's aura intensified as he killed Xiao Zhang.
The surging demonic energy suddenly surged.
A power several times more terrifying than before swept out like a tidal wave.
The dark demonic energy, carrying a bone-chilling coldness, clung to Xiao Zhang.
"what!!!"
A piercing scream burst from Xiao Zhang's throat.
The demonic energy was frantically eroding his physical body.
The body, which was originally in relatively good condition, turned black and shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The meridians were shattered inch by inch by the demonic energy.
Even the nascent soul emitted painful tremors amidst the demonic energy.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles cracked, but his gaze remained fixed on Xiao Xu.
With his last ounce of strength, he roared, "Go! Go now!!!"
Xiao Xu's bloodshot eyes were almost bleeding.
A beastly roar came from his throat.
He suddenly broke free from the shackles of oppression.
He staggered to his feet, ignoring the chaotic state of his spiritual energy.
He grabbed the broken sword hilt from the ground and charged toward the Demon Lord.
But just as he took two steps, an invisible wall of magical energy suddenly appeared.
He was sent flying with a powerful kick!
"Plop" sound.
Xiao Xu fell heavily into the bloodstains, his chest aching terribly, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
But there was no sign of retreat in his eyes; he pushed himself up from the ground and got back up.
They charged toward Xiao Zhang once again.
But it was bounced away by an even stronger blast of air.
His bones made a cracking sound.
Each impact worsened his injuries.
He could only watch helplessly as Xiao Zhang's body turned black and his life force rapidly diminished.
Even darker than Hagibis!
Eventually, even the screams became faint.
Only the husk remained, slowly dissolving in the demonic energy.
But he still had a breath left; he hadn't completely given up.
A cruel smile flashed across the Demon Lord's face.
Xiao Zhang, that troublesome fellow, has been dealt with.
The remaining Xiao Xie were nothing more than ants that could be easily destroyed.
He conjured an extremely refined, jet-black aura from his fingertips.
The churning demonic energy carried an aura of annihilation.
Without hesitation, he attacked Xiao Xu.
Today, the Xiao family will be utterly wiped out, leaving no one alive!
The energy burst through the air at such a speed that Xiao Xu couldn't react at all.
Death was imminent.
At that critical moment, a terrifying pressure, far exceeding that of the Demon Lord, suddenly appeared.
It suddenly swept in from behind the Xiao residence!
This oppressive force was like divine thunder falling from the heavens, or like a primordial beast awakening.
Wherever it passed, the demonic energy waves and dark aura released by the Demon Lord were instantly destroyed and annihilated.
Even the blood mist that filled the sky receded like the tide.
The surrounding noise completely disappeared.
The entire Xiao residence suddenly fell into a deathly silence, and time seemed to stand still.
Xiao Xu was enveloped by this oppressive aura, but he did not sense any malice whatsoever.
Instead, the intense pain from being eroded by demonic energy was slowly dissipating.
He looked up in astonishment.
A majestic Dharma image, as tall as a mountain, appeared from the void.
Standing behind him.
The image was surrounded by a faint golden light.
His posture was as upright as a pillar of heaven.
His features were blurred, yet they exuded an aura of majesty that looked down upon all living beings.
Simply by standing there, it made the heavens and earth tremble.
Xiao Xu was jolted awake, the despair that had been building up in his heart instantly replaced by ecstasy.
He staggered to his feet.
Tears and blood mingled on his face.
Her voice was choked with emotion, yet filled with intense excitement.
He roared at the Dharma image: "Senior! Senior!!!"
Jiang Yantian ignored him and instead looked at the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord realized that this was the real deal.
Immortal Demon Emperor!
He was helpless; even though he had almost been killed by the Demon Emperor, he had to suppress his dissatisfaction.
They even considered serving the country first.
However, just as he was preparing to report his achievements and complete the mission of annihilating the Xiao family.
The words of self-praise were still stuck in his throat.
Jiang Yantian's aura crashed down like a mountain of immense weight.
"what!!!"
The Demon Lord roared!
It was slammed to the ground by an invisible giant hand.
The limbs and bones were creaking and cracking, and the bones were almost shattering.
A hissing sound escaped his throat, but he couldn't utter a single word.
They could only tremble under that crushing pressure on their souls.
He didn't even have the strength to lift his head.
"Why...why..." he said with difficulty.
He could no longer speak.
Jiang Yantian coldly snorted at the Demon Lord: "Demon, you have committed heinous crimes by slaughtering other people's families!"
"I was away for a short while, and such a thing has happened. How can we sit idly by and do nothing now!"
"????"
The Demon Lord was dumbfounded.
It seems like he gave the order, right?
I boil!
Take the blame!
Even if the Demon Lord is stupid, he'll know what's going on.
The Undying Demon Emperor now has another identity: the Lord of Heaven.
He slaughtered the Xiao family, and then this person appeared and subdued him!
Blanch!
Xiao Xu was also stunned.
It turns out that the senior had been away for a while.
Moreover, he felt guilty.
This demon lord was hired by his father to kill his predecessor.
Unexpectedly, the senior did not blame them, but instead helped the family when they were in trouble.
This act of repaying evil with kindness made him feel utterly ashamed.
I am extremely ashamed.
Jiang Yantian was radiating holy light.
"Devil!"
"I have always believed that all living beings should be equal, whether they are gods, demons, immortals, beasts, or monsters, they are all life!"
"But I was still careless. People can be good or evil, so how can we generalize from a single case!"
"I am also a demon, but today, I will absolutely not protect my fellow demons!"
As he spoke, Jiang Yantian raised his hand and waved.
A void rift appeared!
"Today, the Eternal Demon Lord has slaughtered countless lives, committing heinous crimes. I, the Emperor, will imprison you in the Nine Netherworlds, where you will never be able to rise again!!!"
"Are you convinced...?"
The Eternal Demon Lord was utterly unconvinced, but he couldn't speak.
All it could do was struggle frantically.
They couldn't even beg for mercy.
Jiang Yantian sneered: "You're incorrigible! You still want to break free and escape to continue killing innocent lives!"
"Suppress and kill!!!"
