Chapter 520 Now That I’m Back, We Will Prosper
Who am I?
Was I not undefeatable?
I’m so strong now, how did someone kill me in seconds?
The rhino demon used its last remaining consciousness to ask itself.
Li Nianfan looked at the rhino demon and he felt strange. Afterall, this was the first demon that came right in his face.
How confident was this rhino in order to do so?
“Mr. Li, this word has changed. Not just the view, many beings have been changed.” Fire Phoenix said, “This rhino demon had an opportunity to grow its ability, it became arrogant. It’s normal for it to be overly-arrogant.”
Daji added, “Its power was undefeatable in the previous times.”
Li Nianfan nodded, he asked, “Is this related to the rain yesterday?”
Daji and Fire Phoenix exchanged a look, they nodded in unison, “Maybe.”
“How interesting.” Li Nianfan frowned and went quiet.
From the land to the plants, each of them was enlarged by different times. He did not expect the living beings to go through changes as well.
This felt as if…the Spiritual Qi had resumed?
However, this was already a mythical world! If the Spiritual Qi resumed, what did that mean? How surreal!
He was curious, could this turn into the Ancient Wild Era? With huge beats walking around and filling up the skies?
There must have been many demons like this rhino demons. They were boosted with energy and felt good about themselves. They might be confused by the new world. It might get lively in the following times.
Let alone the others, Li Nianfan felt a sense of strangeness in this whole new world. The view was different, he wondered if there were new raw materials for food…
Li Nianfan waved it off, he said, “Although I don’t know why, we don’t have to care about the world. Daji, Fire Phoenix, let’s get breakfast.”
At the same time.
The demon race.
Inside the palace, the Lord Demon was kneeling before a black door. Behind him, there were many other demons.
They all called out in unison, “All of the demons would humbly ask God Demon to wake up, to hold up the demons and rule over the world!”
They repeated it thrice and bowed. The movement was very united and rehearsed.
This was a duty by now. it had become a routine they had every morning.
After all, they had been trying to wake him up for so long with no movement. They went from feeling hopeful in the beginning to perplexed and then helpless. They were now numb.
They would wake him up every morning more as a gesture.
Whether he woke up or not, it did not matter. They did not mean it anymore.
“Morning routine done. Free activities today.”
The Lord Demon patted his clothing and gradually stood up. He said, “Don’t mess things up outside. We’re not like how we were in the past, we must keep things low. Come back tomorrow at the same time to continue.”
All of them nodded. As they stood up and were ready to leave, the entire palace shook!
“Whoosh!”
The black door in the centre of the palace turned into a swirl. As if something was waking up, a pair of eyes gradually opened.
A powerful demonic Qi rushed out from the door. It let out a sound with thick black Qi condensing. A beast from the Eldritch World brought chills to everyone.
Power!
An immense terrifying pressure and power!
The demons felt the pressure. They were delighted and looked joyful.
“He woke up! Our God Demon woke up!”
“Nice! Our time has come!”
“Waa…God Demon, we have done so much for you, you’re finally awake!”
Lord Demon even cried and looked perplexed. He fell on his knees and said with excitement, “You’re finally back! Luckily we didn’t give up on you!”
“Vroom!”
Another violent shake. A black palm reached out from the door. The black Qi thickened. Many black lotuses opened up in the air. The Qi was everywhere and caused a shocking sight.
Following that, another hand reached out!
Two hands held on the door. In the next moment, a tall man walked out from the door.
Behind him, the black swirl was rolling. It was as if he walked out from the Ancient Times, his hair was black and puffy, there was a twisting horn on his head. There were some scales on his neck. He was wearing long sleeves made of countless black fur, floating in the air.
This was how the demons looked in the beginning.
The three thousand demons along Pangu back in the days were different. Even Pangu looked different from modern humans.
In the Chaos, lives had no limits. There were many races. Although the built-up looked similar, the looks could get very different. The skin, body, hair, features and others were different!
Demon’s eyes glinted with a dark glow. His body was hard, his voice was like a bell resonating. He was very powerful as he laughed, “Ha-ha, I’m back.”
The demons cried out in joy. Their eyes burning with excitement, “Welcome back, God Demon!”
God Demon was like a hill, his body was big and tall. He looked down at his crowd and scanned through. He made a sound, “Eh, that’s all we’ve got? Where’s Demon King?”
Lord Demon said with sadness in his eyes, “God Demon, Demon King has been sacrificed.”
“Sacrificed?”
Lord Demon halted and then nodded, “Good, good. It seems that as I was asleep, you’ve all been working hard. Even the Demon King has sacrificed himself. Good job, he died a proud death! He died well!”
Lord Demon and the rest did not speak. They exchanged looks.
Proud their ass!
He was sitting at home, doing nothing and then he died. What a wasted death!
They did not even want to mention this kind of death out loud.
God demon said with anticipation, “You’ve all made so much sacrifice. It seems that my demons have been through a lot, you all must have done a lot with great success. According to my deal with Hongjun, the Absolute Era is done. How’s the conquest getting on?”
“This…that…”
The Lord Demon stuttered. He said weakly, “Lord Demon, some unknown changes have happened with irresistible forces. The progress is getting more challenging.”
“Challenging? Irresistible forces?” God Demon’s face sank. He looked at his crowd with heavy faces and could not help feeling heavy. He waved it off and scoffed, “Whatever, let me see it myself! What is it that you cannot speak of? No matter what happened, now that I’m back, everything will be sorted out!”
With that said, he walked away impatiently. He could not wait to see how prosperous the demons had become.
And yet, as he walked, his frown deepened. He felt a gust of weariness and brokenness. The population had decreased, they were no longer as sharp and arrogant as they used to be. The demons had…gone down!
His pace quickened. As he walked out of the demon’s area, his pupils dilated. He had a look of disbelief.
“This, this land…”
His dark eyes are glinting. He was very shocked, he was dumbfounded!
“How could this be? Isn’t it an Absolute Era now? Why’s there so much Immortal Qi? So densely packed? The opposite end of the Absolute Era?”
He let out his divine consciousness, the more he watched, the more shocked he was.
“Why is my demons’ population so small now?”
He looked at the Lord Demon and his eyes turned cold, “What’s the matter? What’re you all doing?!”
This was too different from what he imagined. It was already scripted, how did it turn the other way round?
This was way too different!
He thought when he woke up this time, he could see his demons ruling the world. He even had his speech ready and yet…just this?
Lord Demon pursed his lips and sobbed, “God Demon, it’s bad for us! We’re getting targeted!”
Instantly, Lord Demon sobbed and told God Demon everything in a pitiable tone. He was crying and wailing, he seemed very sad.
“Vroom!”
God Demon let out a violent Qi instantly. He was shaking all over with his black hair flying in the air. He was powerful with deadly Qi.
“How could it be!”
His voice was like thunder, buzzing out loud. His dark eyes shot out like laser beams. He smiled coldly, “Hongjun! Hongjun must have trapped me! He disobeyed our promise! What a bastard!”
“However…that’s good. This word is now full of Immortal Qi everywhere. The laws are like mists. One’s ability is now more than a million times greater. Most importantly, the Qi are all newly made! I woke up at the right time! Countless opportunities are waiting for me and they will belong to my demons!”
“Don’t panic, now that I’m back, the demons will be baptized! Pass it on, come with me to find Hongjun! I want an explanation!”
