Chapter 49 – The conflict of the Kings


“Master, the gentleman says he’s tired… What should we do?”

Christopher Tong looked at Mark Gu pitifully.

Smack!

Mark Gu gave him a sharp flick on the forehead and scolded, “You’re a grown man, when did you become so whiny?”

Christopher Tong winced in pain, covering his head, his expression turning serious.

“Hmph, that’s more like it. You should learn more from your junior brother Leonard Lin!”

Mark Gu said irritably, glanced regretfully at the courtyard, then bowed and left.

Christopher Tong pursed his lips secretly, mimicking the gesture before quickly following.

………

Monster Realm.

A dozing monster beast suddenly noticed that the two soul lamps on the platform had gone out…

He pursed his lips indifferently, but his previously calm expression gradually turned rigid…

Then he abruptly stood up, a look of terror appearing on his face!

“Sky Wolf General, Thorn Pig General!!”

The two extinguished soul lamps belonged to two monster generals.

The monster beast’s mouth twitched, then he stumbled out in a panic,

“Something’s wrong, something’s wrong!”

………

“What did you say?”

Bang!

The monster beast was kicked over by Lithe Snake, who coldly shouted.

The monster beast quickly resumed a kneeling position, trembling as he said, “Reporting to the Demon King, the soul lamps of Sky Wolf and Thorn Pig Generals… have gone out.”

After a moment,

Lithe Snake raised an eyebrow and disappeared from the spot, intending to check it out personally.

Soon, he reappeared, but his brows were tightly furrowed.

Two monster generals, even in the Monster Realm, held some status, and they had just died like that?

How long had it been? It seemed there were powerful cultivators hidden in the Li Shui Empire…

The Sect Master of Cyan Cloud Sect?

Impossible, even if Sky Wolf and Thorn Pig couldn’t defeat the Sect Master, they could definitely escape!

Could it be other cultivators from the Spirit Dust Cultivation Realm…

It seemed he needed to visit Zhao Deep Abyss in the Demon Realm to settle this, though it would undoubtedly lead to more ridicule.

“Get lost.”

Lithe Snake said indifferently and disappeared.

The monster beast, who had been on edge, finally breathed a sigh of relief, drenched in cold sweat.

He was truly afraid that King Teng Snake would kill him in a fit of anger.

………

Demon Realm.

In the hall.

Zhao Deep Abyss was drinking with Craig Chu when they suddenly heard a cold shout from outside.

“Zhao Deep Abyss, get out here!”

Zhao Deep Abyss smiled at Craig Chu, and the two disappeared from their seats.

When they reappeared,

They were outside the hall, facing Lithe Snake and another monster king.

Before Lithe Snake could speak, Zhao Deep Abyss smirked and said,

“Has King Teng Snake already conquered Li Shui and come here to show off?”

“Congratulations, congratulations, as expected of King Teng Snake, truly impressive.” Craig Chu also cupped his hands and smiled.

Seeing this, Lithe Snake’s anger flared, his face burning, and he said in a deep voice,

“Zhao Deep Abyss, you deliberately provoked me earlier. Why didn’t you mention that there were powerful cultivators in Li Shui? Because of you, our Monster Realm lost two monster generals!”

Zhao Deep Abyss had intended to continue mocking him, but upon hearing Lithe Snake’s last sentence, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Two monster generals dead?

In that case, the failure of the Black Tongue Demon and the Nightmare Demon Clan he had sent earlier was nothing.

“Today, you must give me an explanation.”

Seeing Zhao Deep Abyss remain silent, Lithe Snake stared coldly at him and said.

“An explanation? What kind of explanation do you want?”

Zhao Deep Abyss, undeterred, smiled faintly.

“Are my two monster generals just going to die for nothing?”

Lithe Snake slowly clenched his fist, his voice icy.

“Ridiculous!” Zhao Deep Abyss waved his sleeve dismissively, mocking, “You, Lithe Snake, are the head of the Five Great Monster Kings, yet instead of seeking out the culprit, you come to demand an explanation from me! How amusing…”

“So, you’re saying… you won’t give me an explanation today.” Lithe Snake’s voice suddenly lowered, as if muttering to himself.

Zhao Deep Abyss’s eyes flickered, and he smiled, “There will be no explanation, but as for anything else, I’m game.”

Seeing this,

Craig Chu and the monster king beside Lithe Snake also began to focus, slowly clenching their fists.

It seemed this matter wouldn’t be resolved peacefully today…

The atmosphere in the area grew tense and heated!

“Very well, Zhao Deep Abyss, you truly have guts. Since you won’t give an explanation, I’ll beat one out of you!!”

Lithe Snake’s lips curled into a sinister smile, his aura surging.

“Caw caw caw…”

The crows perched on the withered trees around them were startled, flapping their wings and taking off in a massive flock.

“You’re asking for it, you reckless fool!”

Zhao Deep Abyss sneered, a thick fog erupting around him, his figure becoming faintly visible within it.

“King Kong Monster King, fight with me!”

Lithe Snake shouted, his body transforming into a thousand-foot-long snake, coiling in the air, with a pair of small wings on its back.

His scarlet eyes and enormous flicking tongue looked terrifying.

The King Kong Monster King also transformed into a giant ape the size of a mountain, baring its teeth and glaring fiercely at Zhao Deep Abyss and Craig Chu.

“Craig, among the Five Great Demon Kings, your strength is the greatest. Taking down this stinking ape shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

Zhao Deep Abyss squinted and said.

Craig Chu looked up at the giant ape, grinning, “I’ve heard that among the Five Great Monster Kings, the King Kong Monster King is the strongest. Today, I’ll see for myself.”

“And let me remind you, just because something is big doesn’t mean it’s powerful…”

The next moment,

Craig Chu tapped the ground with his toes, launching himself like a cannonball towards the King Kong Monster King!

“Boom——!”

The ground below shattered into a spiderweb-like pattern from the impact.

“Heh, Craig may seem simple-minded, but when he fights, he’s something else.”

Zhao Deep Abyss sighed, then looked up at Lithe Snake, smiling,

“Craig is right, being big doesn’t mean you’re powerful. You mindless… fools.”

Lithe Snake’s pupils flashed with ferocity, and he lunged with his massive snake body,

“Zhao Deep Abyss, if I don’t cripple you today, I won’t be called Lithe!!”

At the same time,

The commotion from the Abyss Demon King’s hall naturally attracted the attention of many demons. They watched in horror as the giant snake and ape soared in the distance, and without hesitation, they went to inform the other three Demon Kings.

“Boom——!”

The King Kong Monster King threw a punch, but it was firmly blocked by Craig Chu.

The visual impact was immense, as the King Kong Monster King’s fist was hundreds of times larger than Craig Chu’s body.

“I’ve heard that the Demon King Craig Chu, despite being a demon, possesses immense strength. At first, I didn’t believe it, but today I do.” The King Kong Monster King’s voice echoed in the air, tinged with gravity.

He found it hard to accept,

How could a demon’s strength compare to that of a monster beast?

Absurd.
