Chapter 1688 - 748: The Calamity of the Demon Emperor

Chapter 1688: Chapter 748: The Calamity of the Demon Emperor

In Hong Mingyue’s mind, she had always believed she was more outstanding than Ye Lingyue.

The only thing Ye Lingyue was better at than her was luck.

But so what if Ye Lingyue’s luck was good?

The man she found was just a demon.

And not only that, he was a washed-up Demon Ancestor with no real power in the Demon World.

The man Hong Mingyue was going to find definitely had to be stronger than Ye Lingyue’s.

Xi Jiuye was a Divine Master, his Divine Power reached the heavens, even Di Shen and the others were no match for him.

Hong Mingyue fancied herself as Xi Jiuye’s woman; if she could bring him back to the Divine Realm, she could become a Divine Consort.

The status of Divine Consort, compared to Queen Xiyuan of the demons, was unquestionably superior.

So for a long stretch of time, Hong Mingyue had not contacted the Demon Empress Moonflower at all, let alone tell her about the Senluo Ghost Fruit King and Xi Jiuye.

Judging from Queen Xiyuan’s voice, she was furious; something must have happened.

Hong Mingyue didn’t dare think too much, her heart circling around the question of whether she should go see Queen Xiyuan.

"Hong Mingyue, the South Nether Emperor will be arriving very soon. If you don’t want to die, then come see me immediately."

The Demon Empress Moonflower’s warning snapped Hong Mingyue awake in an instant. She jerked her head up and looked at the sky, only to see a hazy mist overhead, as if some terrifying thing was pressing in from afar.

It turned out that when Queen Xiyuan discovered Xi Jiuye was also in the Tongtian Tribe, she had already secretly sent out a signal calling Zhan Hen to come to her rescue.

She just hadn’t expected at the time that Di Shen would also be in the Tongtian Tribe.

If Di Shen ran into Zhan Hen, she truly had no idea what would happen.

The more Queen Xiyuan thought about it, the angrier she became, and she vented all her fury on Hong Mingyue, who had kept quiet despite knowing everything.

Hong Mingyue’s heart pounded like a drum. She knew that her little schemes had definitely already been seen through by Queen Xiyuan.

If Queen Xiyuan exposed her identity, and even those disgraceful matters with the Ghost Fruit King, she wouldn’t be able to stand firm either in the Demon World or the Human Realm, much less have Xi Jiuye bring her back to the Divine Realm.

No, she couldn’t go see Queen Xiyuan.

Hong Mingyue was scared out of her wits.

Suddenly, something occurred to her.

Right now, there was only one person who could save her.

South Nether Emperor Zhan Hen!

She had to atone by meritorious service, find the South Nether Emperor, and tell him Queen Xiyuan’s whereabouts. As long as the South Nether Emperor stepped in to protect her, surely he’d have a way to make his own wife Xiyuan let her off.

Hong Mingyue made up her mind on the spot. She slipped past several demon soldiers and, without looking back, sped toward the sky where Demon Energy was surging.

This time, Hong Mingyue had indeed bet correctly.

South Nether Emperor Zhan Hen was currently racing over without rest, bringing fifty thousand South Nether Demon Soldiers, pressing toward the border.

Moonflower had left the Demon World for quite some time already.

Zhan Hen, seeing that she had yet to return, often urged her to come back.

But after Queen Xiyuan learned that Chi Ye was also in the Tongtian Tribe, she had refused to return to the Demon World, determined to take revenge on Chi Ye.

Early this morning, Zhan Hen felt inexplicably agitated, and just then, he received Moonflower’s distress signal, learning that the Northern Territory Divine Sovereign Xi Jiuye had also appeared in the Tongtian Tribe.

Once Zhan Hen got the news, he rushed over at breakneck speed.

They were about to press up to the Tongtian Tribe when a streak of flowing light came speeding over from the direction of the Tongtian Tribe.

"Demon Emperor above, I am Hong Mingyue, the spy the South Nether Empress placed among the Human Clan. I have an urgent matter to report."

At a glance, Hong Mingyue saw fifty thousand demon soldiers clad in Demon Armor.

Each and every one of those demon soldiers radiated murderous intent, their figures burly and towering; they were many times stronger than the demon soldiers of the Tongtian Tribe.

The sight made Hong Mingyue’s courage crumble. Then the demon soldiers suddenly parted into two lines.

A man of extraordinary bearing stepped out.

The man’s face was extremely handsome, carrying a hint of wicked allure. He came with his hands clasped behind his back, demonic power surging around him, clad in a battle robe of python-yellow.

Hong Mingyue instantly guessed his identity and hurriedly knelt.

"You’re the spy Queen Xiyuan planted among the Human Clan? Where is the Demon Empress now?"

Zhan Hen had a rough idea of who Hong Mingyue was. He didn’t even spare her a proper look, his expression utterly indifferent.

"The Demon Empress is deep in danger, she’s been... been trapped by Demon Ancestor Di Shen and the Northern Territory Divine Sovereign Xi Jiuye."

The moment Hong Mingyue’s words landed, she suddenly felt a chill rush at her from all directions.

She instantly felt her whole body turn to ice, her neck was abruptly seized, and a breath of death crushed down, making the bones all over her body creak and crack.

"What did you say! Di Shen is also in the Tongtian Tribe!"

The thing Zhan Hen feared most had still happened.

Di Shen truly hadn’t died. Not only was he alive, but he had even run into Moonflower.

No one knew better than Zhan Hen that Moonflower’s former infatuation for Di Shen had once reached the point of insanity.

Over five hundred years ago, he had spent enormous effort to get rid of Di Shen, and yet unexpectedly, the man had appeared again, clinging on like a lingering ghost.

"Lord Demon Emperor, spare me. I came to pass on information. The Demon Empress is in extreme danger right now, and I happen to know that the Demon Ancestor’s woman is also in the Tongtian Tribe. If Lord Demon Emperor wants to save the Demon Empress, you must first seize that woman. That woman is a Human Clan Demon Hunter, dressed like a Dancer, and her looks are very similar to mine."

Hong Mingyue was still by every means trying to frame Ye Lingyue.

No matter how powerful Di Shen was, he still hadn’t fully awakened.

As long as Zhan Hen led fifty thousand elite demon soldiers to press in, he would definitely be able to crush that bunch from the Huangquan Team.

Then Jin Family’s representative team could win, and that woman Ye Lingyue would surely be killed.

This was truly a fine scheme that killed two birds with one stone.

Hong Mingyue couldn’t help silently applauding her own clever plan.

Di Shen’s woman?

This piece of news, without a doubt, shocked Zhan Hen even more than learning Di Shen was in the Tongtian Tribe.

Zhan Hen had always thought that Di Shen, who didn’t even spare Moonflower a glance, simply didn’t understand what it meant to love someone.

A man like him would actually fall for a woman.

And she was from the Human Clan?

Aside from the Divine Race, weren’t the Human Clan precisely the ones Di Shen hated the most?

Regardless of whether it was true or not, the pressing matter now was to rescue Moonflower first.

"You will lead the way in front. If things are truly as you say, I will see you well rewarded."

Hong Mingyue was overjoyed inside, knowing that Zhan Hen had already believed her words.

She looked toward the chaotic Tongtian Tribe and sneered in her heart.

Ye Lingyue, Di Shen, let’s see how much longer you can keep strutting.

I’ll make sure every last one of you in the Huangquan Team dies here.

Hong Mingyue thought viciously.

With a single command from Zhan Hen, the fifty thousand elite demon soldiers behind him marched toward the Tongtian Tribe.

But just then, the sky suddenly churned with wind and clouds.

The Evil cloud that had formed from fifty thousand elite of the Demon Clan pressing in was swept away in an instant, completely wiped clean.

Up in the sky, a cold voice suddenly rang out.

"Demon Clan, you lot are truly reckless beyond measure."

With the appearance of that voice, the previously imposing South Nether Emperor Zhan Hen suddenly had his aura cut off; he looked toward the horizon in disbelief, and in his mind, like a shooting star, flashed a terrifying name.
