Little… bastard?
Jun Changxiao was immediately dumbfounded.
This term of address was far too contemptuous of a great demon king!
“Master.”
Er Ya asked curiously, “Why would you suddenly mention that guy I bullied for ten thousand years?”
“…”
Jun Changxiao’s mouth twitched.
Though he hadn’t been disciplined by the Soul Suppression Whip, though he was somewhat curious about it.
But the several Soul Clan Hall Masters immediately became cowards and were completely obedient to him, which showed the process must be extremely painful.
The so-called Dark Demon King being bullied by Er Ya for ten thousand years—simply unimaginable!
“Swish!”
Jun Changxiao sat down, waving his hand, “Please tell me the story between you and the Dark Demon King.”
Er Ya said, “A special dark attribute exists in the mortal universe, slowly gathering over the river of time to form a demon king embodying pure evil.”
“On the day it took form, it was detected by a mighty being from the Upper Realm, who forged a tower with energy that purifies worldly evil, then suppressed the demon king who intended to bring disaster to the mortal realm on Tianyuan Continent.”
“This tower is the Tianyuan Soul Suppression Tower?” Jun Changxiao asked.
“Yes.”
Er Ya said, “And I am the energy that purifies worldly evil, ultimately existing in the tower as an artifact spirit.”
Jun Changxiao was stunned.
He knew the Tianyuan Soul Suppression Tower was powerful, but hadn’t expected it actually came from the Upper Realm.
No matter how formidable equipment from the mortal universe was, compared to anything with an ‘Upper Realm’ label, it would definitely pale in comparison.
“Very normal.”
The System said, “After all, it withstood tribulation lightning force.”
“That’s true.”
Jun Changxiao was overjoyed, “So you and the Tianyuan Soul Suppression Tower exist specifically to suppress the Dark Demon King?”
“Yes.”
Er Ya nodded.
Jun Changxiao asked, “If you encounter that guy again, can you handle him?”
“What?”
Er Ya’s eyes widened, saying fiercely, “Did that little bastard bully Master?”
“Right.”
Jun Changxiao pretended to be pitiful, “Was bullied terribly by him!”
“Swish! Swish!”
Instantly, whips, candles, handcuffs, shackles, ropes and other disciplinary tools appeared behind Er Ya, her eyes turning blood-red, “Master, I’ll take revenge for you!”
Zhao Doudou, who had just finished giving several prisoners mental counseling lessons, passed by the monitoring room and saw the completely darkened Er Ya, nearly collapsing in fright.
The Dark Demon King probably never imagined that though he didn’t even know Jun Gousheng, he had already been set up like this.
“You’re certain you can handle it?”
“As long as Master hits him with the Tianyuan Soul Suppression Tower, leave the rest to me!”
“No problem!”
To defeat the Dark Demon King with his own strength, Jun Changxiao felt somewhat uncertain, but just hitting him with the tower should be easy.
“Right.”
Jun Changxiao said, “That guy also has a bunch of subordinates.”
Er Ya said, “They must have been gathered through his own dark attribute. As long as we control the main body, we can easily handle them.”
“I see.”
Jun Changxiao was somewhat shocked.
This Dark Demon King was already very strong, yet could also manifest ten lower-level Breaking Through the Void Realm experts and a hundred thousand subordinates—truly worthy of being called the mortal world’s top-tier BOSS.
“If Er Ya can control him and his subordinates, I can also save one Seal Opening Talisman.”
Jun Changxiao had initially thought to leave the demon king to the Soul Suppression Tower and handle the subordinates with the Inescapable Blade.
Though the final consequence would be prolonged weakness, for ten million grade-nine spirit stones, for one side quest, absolutely worth it!
Moreover, back then he had even married the Rose Empress for two side quests—what in the world was there that he wouldn’t dare do!
The System complained, “The host thought of this himself, not me!”
“You haven’t said enough already!”
…
“Whoosh!”
The Tonggu Warship ran at full power, advancing toward Tianyuan Continent at maximum speed.
Of course.
Energy consumption was also fast.
For the side quest and ten million spirit stones, Jun Changxiao spared no expense.
And the closer they got to Tianyuan Continent, the more worried Shang Youhen became, afraid Big Brother Jun couldn’t handle the Dark Demon King.
If he died, fine.
But if he implicated his benefactor, that would be truly despicable.
Jun Changxiao saw his worry and comforted him, “Don’t worry, in this mortal universe, no one can threaten this one.”
“I hope so,” Shang Youhen thought secretly.
…
One month later.
After traversing the endless universe, the Tonggu Warship finally flew into the region where Tianyuan Continent was located.
“Strange.”
Jun Changxiao wondered, “Why are there so many abandoned planes?”
After entering this cosmic region, he had successively passed several planes, all with withered spiritual energy and devoid of people.
The vast universe had nurtured countless continents suitable for habitation. Some would gradually reach their peak, some would slowly decline—this was normal natural law.
However, frequently encountering abandoned planes in a small area was somewhat odd.
“Big Brother Jun.”
Shang Youhen clenched his fist, “The Dark Demon King survives by devouring planes. He’s targeted not just my Tianyuan Continent.”
“All these planes were his doing?” Jun Changxiao asked.
“Without doubt!”
“…”
Jun Changxiao thought, “This powerful and evil being should at least be classified as an Epic Quest. How could it be assigned to a side quest?”
“Whoosh!”
The Tonggu Warship continued forward.
Several days later, it hovered in the starry sky of an abandoned plane.
This continent was very large—Star Meteorite Continent could only be described as a child compared to it.
From the outside.
Inside were many visible fine cracks, as if it could shatter at any moment.
Shang Youhen stood on the deck clenching his fists, his eyeballs filled with bloodshot veins.
Jun Changxiao knew this was Tianyuan Continent. From the degree of devastation, it was completely worse than those previously passed.
“Whoosh!”
The Tonggu Warship flew inside.
Passing through the spatial barrier and seeing everything inside, Jun Changxiao fell silent.
The entire world was full of cracks, full of craters, even the space remained in a collapsed state, as if having just experienced an apocalypse.
“Drip, drip.”
Shang Youhen’s body stood rigidly in place like a statue, blood seeping from his fists and splattering on the floor.
Jun Changxiao didn’t comfort him.
Because he was thinking if his own Star Meteorite Continent became like this, the anger and pain arising in his heart probably wouldn’t be any less.
The Tonggu Warship slowed down, flying through the shattered mountains and rivers.
Corpses long dried could vaguely be seen under city-like ruins.
Even in a huge crater, hundreds of thousands of skeletal remains were piled up. From their various postures, they had clearly struggled before death.
Never mind Shang Youhen.
Just Jun Changxiao, seeing such scenes, the indelible painful memories of Chinese descendants surged through his consciousness. The fury in his bones, blood, and soul instantly ignited.
“Boy.”
“I don’t want the money.”
“This Dark Demon King—I must eliminate him!”
