Chapter 2422 - 2427: The Captain Will Not Disappoint!

Chapter 2422: Chapter 2427: The Captain Will Not Disappoint!

Because Xia Liu did not respond.

Ridiculing voices echoed all around.

"Hmph, now that the War God has become a seventh-rank Demon Lord, if no eighth-rank Demon Lord cultivator dares to appear, then surely they have something wrong with their mind."

"You actually mentioned having a mind? Anyone who dares to offend the War God Zhutian wouldn’t have such a thing as a mind, right?"

"Haha! That’s right! If that guy had a mind, how could he end up with this death duel today?"

...

"Hehe! These people are the ones truly mindless!"

Hearing the many cultivators below discussing Xia Liu.

Lan Lianxue couldn’t help but sneer.

Who is Xia Liu?

Even the Demon Beast Emperor with near-god powers fears him not.

Zhutian is merely at a seventh-rank Demon Lord realm.

Normally, he wouldn’t even have the qualification to challenge Xia Liu.

Just a mere clown.

"Xue’er, do you know this Xia Liu?"

King Lan asked with confusion.

"If I said he is my friend, would you be willing to help him, Father?"

Lan Lianxue asked tentatively.

"Xue’er, do you know what you’re saying?"

King Lan’s attitude had softened for a day over the past few days.

Especially on that day when he returned to Azure Blue Palace and could no longer see Xia Liu’s shadow.

He suddenly realized many things.

Perhaps all of this was his own sensitivity and impatience.

Xia Liu might genuinely have feelings for his daughter, that’s why he participated in the Martial Combat Tournament.

As a result of being overly sensitive, he caused his daughter to lose the best protection.

If he were to die in a month.

His daughter and the Western Region would probably...

Had he known things would develop like this.

He shouldn’t have acted against Xia Liu on that day.

The Demon Infant wouldn’t have suffered such a massive shock.

Perhaps fortunately, within a limited time, he could have found a suitable body for the Cold Frost Demon Infant.

But this is merely King Lan’s conjecture.

He can use secret techniques for soul possession, though the realm might decline due to the possession.

He doesn’t care about such things.

The problem is his Demon Infant is very special, bodies capable of carrying the Cold Frost Demon Infant in the Demon Domain are few.

"I know, if possible, please, Father, help Xia Liu."

Lan Lianxue said seriously.

After a long pause, King Lan smiled knowingly and said, "Alright, but you have to tell me, who exactly is Xia Liu?"

Ah...

Lan Lianxue didn’t expect Father to agree so quickly, caught off guard.

"Father! He’s my regiment leader! My regiment leader!"

"Oh? Is he the regiment leader you dearly miss?"

"Yes!"

Lan Lianxue looked at her father pitifully, hoping he’d agree.

"Alright! I promise you."

"Really?"

Father’s sudden change made Lan Lianxue feel unusual.

Since when did her words become so effective?

"Yes, provided he can defeat Zhutian."

King Lan wanted to take a gamble.

Even if it costs the entire Western Region, he wants his daughter to have safety.

A dying man can only do so much.

After all, the Western Region isn’t his solely, even if the Demon Clan and Ye Family obtain it, under the pressure of the Demon Mother.

They dare not initiate wide-scale massacre.

"Haha! His regiment leader will definitely defeat Zhutian!"

Lan Lianxue said happily.

"Oh? Then let me see, hope he dares to appear today."

"Don’t worry, Father, the regiment leader arrived here several days ago!"

"What? You’ve met him?"

King Lan suddenly sensed something was off, if his daughter’s regiment leader had appeared.

How would she get involved with Liu Xia?

"No, but I can feel that he’s already here!"

...

King Lan couldn’t joke much with his daughter.

Nowadays, he has an overwhelming amount of thoughts daily.

Even if to create a good impression for his daughter, he can’t pretend for long.

As people were talking and pondering.

Suddenly a shadow drifted slowly from the west.

Surrounded without a trace of energy!

Just like an ordinary demon.

But his ability to float in the air.

Is beyond what mortals could achieve!

His appearance amazed the three kings.

Because they couldn’t sense the foundation of the newcomer!

Indicating the profound hiding divine skills he has.

Even a ninth-rank Demon Lord couldn’t grasp it!

"Hmm? You truly have courage!"

Seeing Xia Liu, dressed in a black robe, settling in the arena, Zhutian felt a bit excited.

Because Xia Liu would be his stepping stone.

Making his fame and prestige rise another level in the Demon God Kingdom! 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

"Zhutian, we originally had few matters between us, why force yourself to this point?"

Xia Liu showed pity for Zhutian.

Cultivation is inherently difficult.

Wanting to showcase his powers before the cultivators of the Demon God Kingdom.

His idea is too foolish!

"Tsk tsk! You ruined my demon guard’s demon body, sealed his demon infant, cutting off all his paths, did you ever think one day you could become like that?"

Zhutian’s demeanor suddenly turned passionate.

"You have no idea what he ultimately became!"

"He killed himself! Because he lacked the ability to act, kneeling in front of his friend for a day! Using blood to write a plea for his friend to save him from suffering! Did you know?"

Zhutian’s roar carried immense resentment.

Making many present almost shed tears.

What kind of suffering must it be.

To make someone willing to end with death?

"Such cruel methods, this child truly deserves death!"

"Demon guards are also people! They have flesh and blood! Why such cruel treatment?"

"War God! Kill him!"

"Kill him!"

...

Zhutian’s words moved those fervent demon domain cultivators.

A person who lost cultivation, whose demon infant was sealed, the mere thought tells of such pain.

Worse than death!

"Hahaha!!!"

Amid the chaotic cheers of the crowd, Xia Liu laughed uncontrollably.

"What kind of demon guard do you have, do you not know in your heart? Today you create such a commotion merely to let everyone see your prowess, to showcase the might of the War God!"

"Shut up! Today, I’m here solely to avenge my demon guard’s years!"

Being visibly exposed, Zhutian’s murderous intent grew stronger.

Like palpable red vastness lingering by his side.

Leaving an awe-inspiring impression.

"You can use me to display might, but have you considered that today might not be your showcase, but my extermination of your War God title!"

...

Once Xia Liu spoke, the entire arena fell silent like death.

"Hahaha!!!"

The first to burst into laughter were the spectating demon cultivators.

They couldn’t help it.

Because Xia Liu is simply too ridiculous!

What qualifications does he have to stand before a seventh-rank Demon Lord War God?

"He is quite bold, quite similar to someone."

King Lan stared at Xia Liu for a long time.

Always unable to resist comparing Xia Liu with Liu Xia.

Only to find they’re indeed somewhat alike.

Though the aura differs.

Or rather, Xia Liu hasn’t revealed his aura yet.

Making it impossible to confirm their identity.

"Father, just watch, the regiment leader won’t disappoint you!"

Lan Lianxue said seriously.

What she didn’t know is, King Lan and Xia Liu once had a battle...
