Chapter 88 – Demon King Slayer


Isla Su activated the Heavenly Demon Mirror, and a terrifying pressure spread from the sky.

Whether it was the wolf demons or the human martial artists and soldiers, they all seemed to be facing an immense terror at this moment.

The wolf demons all prostrated themselves in worship.

Countless people were filled with fear as they looked at the Heavenly Demon Mirror in the sky, which shone like a brilliant silver moon.

Chen Junxiao and the others quickly gathered their True Essence to form a protective barrier.

“Boom!”

The Heavenly Demon Mirror trembled, and a dazzling beam of light shot down from the sky, heading straight for Zong Qingzhi.

The powerful and terrifying beam struck Zong Qingzhi’s protective barrier in an instant, causing a blinding ripple of light that sent Chen Junxiao and the others flying.

“Boom!”

A loud explosion seemed to tear the sky apart, and the terrifying sound wave made countless people’s heads buzz as if they were being hammered.

Zong Qingzhi, who took the brunt of the attack, was knocked from the sky and crashed into a mountain, causing it to collapse halfway, with rocks and trees flying everywhere.

Many weaker cultivators were shaken to the point of bleeding from their mouths and noses, clutching their heads in pain and kneeling down.

“What terrifying power,” Oliver Sheng murmured.

This Heavenly Demon Mirror, worthy of being a half-step demon emperor’s sacred artifact, was comparable to an attack from a Great Grandmaster.

He was confident that he was stronger than Zong Qingzhi, who was at the Great Perfection of the Grandmaster realm, but even Oliver didn’t dare to say he could withstand such a terrifying blow unscathed.

When everyone recovered from the terrifying strike, Isla Su’s figure had already disappeared from the sky, and the Heavenly Demon Mirror was nowhere to be seen.

“Is this the sacred artifact crafted by a half-step demon emperor?” Parker Yin’s eyes were filled with fervor.

Chen Junxiao and the others hurriedly flew over to check on Zong Qingzhi.

“Master Zong!”

“Master Zong!”

The members of the Demon Slayer Division looked at the collapsed mountain with heavy hearts. If Zong Qingzhi had perished, the loss to the Demon Slayer Division would be too great.

“Cough, cough!”

A weak cough came from the rubble.

Chen Junxiao and the others were overjoyed and quickly moved forward to clear the debris.

Zong Qingzhi emerged from the rubble, his hair disheveled, his body covered in wounds, and his left arm broken, with blood continuously flowing.

His face was pale and grim. “Damn it, this time I’ve suffered a great loss. My foundation is damaged, and I’m afraid I’ll never reach the Great Grandmaster realm.”

“Damn fox demon, you’ve ruined my path.”

Zong Qingzhi was furious and frustrated. What he thought would be a simple task had turned into a disaster, shattering his hopes of breaking through to the Great Grandmaster realm.

“Master Zong!”

“Master Zong!”

Chen Junxiao, Xue Hu, and the others looked at Zong Qingzhi with concern.

“Healing pills, Master Zong, take them quickly.” Chen Junxiao swiftly took out healing pills and handed them to Zong Qingzhi.

Zong Qingzhi didn’t refuse and quickly took the pills. His internal injuries were severe, with his internal organs shattered.

His five internal energies were scattered.

“Master Zong, how are you?” Han Qianyu asked worriedly.

“Sigh, my foundation is damaged,” Zong Qingzhi said with a bitter smile.

“What?”

The others’ faces changed dramatically. Master Zong was one of the few in the Demon Slayer Division with the potential to break through to the Great Grandmaster realm.

“Fortunately, that fox demon’s power was insufficient and could only barely use the Heavenly Demon Mirror. Otherwise, I would have died here today,” Zong Qingzhi said bitterly.

It was both fortunate and unfortunate.

Surviving a strike from a half-step demon emperor’s sacred artifact was a testament to his great luck.

Mason Wei snapped out of his daze. Was this the fox demon he had been relentlessly pursuing?

Thinking about it now made him break out in a cold sweat. If that fox demon had used the Heavenly Demon Mirror on him, he would have been dead for sure.

Seeing Isla Su disappear, Parker Yin turned and ran. If he didn’t run now, when would he?

Once the members of the Demon Slayer Division recovered, he would be the one facing their siege.

“Not good, that remnant of the Yin Corpse Sect is escaping!” Wang Bufan shouted as he saw Parker Yin fleeing.

“Chase him down! We must kill him, or I’ll suffer a great loss,” Zong Qingzhi immediately ordered.

The black wolf demon Black Fiend also turned and ran, knowing that staying would mean certain death.

Oliver Sheng continued to slaughter the wolf demons, uninterested in other matters. He preferred to keep a low profile and focus on accumulating Kill Points.

Quietly developing and then astonishing everyone.

Isla Su had used the Heavenly Demon Mirror to deliver a terrifying strike, severely injuring Zong Qingzhi before fleeing. The effort had nearly drained her of all her demonic essence.

Chen Junxiao, Xue Hu, and the others went after Parker Yin, allowing the wolf king Black Fiend to escape.

The ordinary wolf demons, facing the combined assault of human martial artists and the army, were gradually being slaughtered.

With Oliver Sheng, the god of slaughter, present, it was impossible for the ordinary wolf demons to escape.

Once the wolf demons were exterminated, Oliver Sheng’s body exuded a rolling aura of blood and fiendish energy, making anyone who saw him tremble with fear.

No one dared to touch the wolf demon corpses he had slain, fearing that Oliver Sheng, in his bloodthirsty state, might mistake them for wolf demons and kill them.

“Is he the reincarnation of a god of slaughter?” someone whispered, swallowing hard.

“Such terrifying killing intent. I feel like just one glare from him could scare me to death.”

Oliver Sheng’s subordinates quickly moved to collect the wolf demon corpses. These corpses were treasures.

The flesh could be used for cultivation and to enhance their strength, the hides and bones could be made into armor and weapons, and the wolf fur could be used to make brushes. Not wasting any resources, his soldiers took all the wolf demon corpses he had slain.

“General Sheng’s strength is truly formidable. I, Jiang, am in awe,” Jiang Yibai said, sheathing his sword in admiration.

Sword cultivators were known for their terrifying killing power, but he felt he was still far behind Oliver Sheng.

“It’s nothing, just a bit more strength,” Oliver Sheng said with a faint smile.

The members of the Demon Slayer Division went after Parker Yin, while various forces collected the wolf demon corpses and prepared to leave the mountain.

Staying in the mountains was pointless, as they couldn’t deal with experts above the Grandmaster realm.

Oliver Sheng and his subordinates were in no hurry. They had gained a lot, and Jiang Yibai had given all the wolf demons he had slain to Oliver Sheng.

With over three thousand wolf demon corpses, it would take time for their thousand-plus men to transport them all.

“General, what should we do with all this wolf demon flesh?” Zane Wang asked.

“Make carts and use the warhorses to haul it back,” Oliver Sheng replied.

Since the wolf demon flesh could enhance their strength, Oliver Sheng had no intention of exchanging it with the Demon Slayer Division for anything.

Zane Wang led the soldiers to cut down trees and make carts.

Oliver Sheng headed deeper into the mountains.

“General Sheng, where are you going?” Jiang Yibai asked.

“To find something. Brother Jiang, please look after the troops for me,” Oliver Sheng said.

He was going to search for the treasure left behind by the wolf demons. Having ravaged Suiyuan County, they must have looted a lot of gold and silver, and the black wolf demons had occupied the Qingyuan Mountains for years, so there had to be many valuable items.

Many others had the same idea as Oliver Sheng.

Martial artists, soldiers from Ding Prefecture, and members of the Demon Slayer Division were all searching the mountains for the black wolf demons’ hidden treasure.

With the black wolf demons exterminated and the wolf king Black Fiend fleeing, now was the best time.

In the dense forest of the mountains, shadows flitted about, with people diving into any cave they found.

Oliver Sheng sighed, realizing that there were many smart people in this world.

Everyone knew that the black wolf demons had treasure, and finding it would make them rich.

Oliver Sheng could only head deeper into the mountains, avoiding clashes with other treasure hunters.

As he wandered aimlessly in the depths of the mountains, a pair of sinister eyes were watching him.

Oliver Sheng wandered around, and suddenly, a demonic wind blew, with black demonic qi rolling in.

A black demonic claw struck fiercely at Oliver Sheng, aiming to crush this human who had slaughtered countless of his kin into pieces.

Without a Grandmaster-level expert, daring to venture alone into the depths of the mountains was nothing short of seeking death.

Black Fiend moved swiftly, a cruel smile forming at the corner of his mouth. In the next moment, he would crush Oliver Sheng into a pulp.

Sensing the incoming killing intent, Oliver Sheng drew his Black Gold Battle Saber with a clang, the saber exuding a rolling aura of blood and fiendish energy as he slashed out.

“Slash!”

Blood splattered as a massive wolf claw was severed with a single stroke.

“Ah!”

Black Fiend screamed in pain. His incredibly tough body had been sliced through with one strike.

“Damn it, you’re not at the Prenatal Realm,” Black Fiend’s face, already as black as coal, turned even darker.

He looked at Oliver Sheng in horror and anger. This human, who seemed to have only mid-Prenatal Realm strength, had severed one of his claws with a single stroke.

It should be noted that even Chen Junxiao, after thousands of rounds of battle, hadn’t managed to injure him.

Oliver Sheng smiled at the black-faced wolf demon.

“Heh, if I hadn’t revealed my Prenatal Realm strength, would you have shown yourself?” Oliver Sheng hadn’t expected that his impromptu plan would actually lure out this wolf demon.

It seemed this wolf demon was reluctant to leave the Qingyuan Mountains and had hidden in the depths of the mountains.

Black Fiend turned to flee. What he thought was an easy target turned out to be a hidden, terrifying boss.

Oliver Sheng unleashed his full aura, making Black Fiend feel as if he were facing a terrifying expert at the Great Perfection of the Grandmaster realm.

“Where do you think you’re going? Get into my pot obediently,” Oliver Sheng said, chasing after him with his saber.

“Slash!”

A bright saber light slashed out like a vast waterfall.

Black Fiend, sensing the terrifying saber light behind him, turned to defend, but the sharp saber light, with its unmatched power and fiendish energy, sent him flying, spitting blood.

Lying on the ground, Black Fiend had a terrifying, gaping wound from his abdomen to his chest, bleeding profusely.

He looked at Oliver Sheng in despair. How strong was this human? One strike had left him gravely injured and unable to resist.

“Please, don’t kill me. I can be your mount,” Black Fiend pleaded, looking at Oliver Sheng holding the Black Gold Battle Saber.

He didn’t want to die. Having just broken through to the demon king realm, he hadn’t had a chance to enjoy it yet. Black Fiend was unwilling to die like this.

“Really?” Oliver Sheng said coldly, looking at Black Fiend.

“Master, this little wolf is willing to be your mount. Please spare my life,” Black Fiend begged.

“If you want to be my mount, show some sincerity first,” Oliver Sheng said indifferently.

Black Fiend quickly said, “Master, whatever you want, as long as this little wolf has it, it’s yours.”

“Where is your wolf tribe’s treasure hidden?” Oliver Sheng asked immediately.

“If you want the treasure, I’ll take you there,” Black Fiend said, willing to give anything to save his life.

“Alright, lead the way. If I see the treasure, I’ll spare your life,” Oliver Sheng said.

Black Fiend used his demonic essence to barely stop the bleeding from his wound and struggled to get up, feeling bitter.

First, he had been controlled by the fox demon with a curse, forcing his tribe to descend the mountain and provoke the humans, leading to the tribe’s extermination.

Now, to survive, he had to acknowledge a human as his master, which was a disgrace to the wolf tribe.

Led by Black Fiend, the wolf king, Oliver Sheng quickly found the hidden cave where the wolf tribe’s treasure was stored.

Without Black Fiend’s guidance, finding this hidden cave would have been nearly impossible.

Inside the cave, piles of gold, silver, and copper coins were stacked like small mountains. These were all looted from Suiyuan County.

Oliver Sheng also saw many herbs, all of considerable age.

“Master, all the wealth of the black wolf tribe is here,” Black Fiend said.

“Not bad. You can die in peace now,” Oliver Sheng said with a smile.

“What?”

Black Fiend thought he had misheard.

“Slash!”

Oliver Sheng’s Black Gold Battle Saber pierced Black Fiend’s chest, shattering his heart.

“You don’t keep your word,” Black Fiend died with his eyes open.

He had agreed to spare his life, and he was willing to be a mount and offer all the black wolf tribe’s wealth.

“I never said I would keep my word,” Oliver Sheng said, pulling out the Black Gold Battle Saber.

The black wolf tribe had slaughtered the entire county of Suiyuan. How could Oliver Sheng spare him?

And so, a once-mighty demon king met his end at the hands of Oliver Sheng.
