Chapter 365: Chapter 324: Demon God Ride! (3rd Update)

Red-scaled King and the elites of Red God Valley were very infuriated, particularly the Red-scaled King. As a young sovereign of his generation, he had never experienced such frustration.

He had barely entered Black Sky Plain when he encountered an attack by bandits.

The prestigious Immortal Sacred Land of Red God Valley had actually been ambushed by bandits; such a thing had never happened before, and it was simply a joke.

But that wasn’t all. Those bandits, to the majestic Red-scaled King, didn’t pose much of a threat. They were merely a group of slightly stronger ants that could be slain without much effort.

Bandits were just bandits after all, lowly Cultivators who were not worth mentioning.

What infuriated him the most was that he seemed to have become the enemy of all the bandits in the Black Sky Plain. He didn’t understand what was happening, yet in one day, he had encountered attacks from no fewer than twenty bands of bandits.

Among them were top Divinity Transformation Experts, leading groups of bandits who swarmed up and irrationally launched a full-scale battle.

More importantly, he saw a greedy gleam in the eyes of those bandits; he was like prey, waiting to be hunted by them.

All of this infuriated him—the majestic Red-scaled King, the leader of the young generations in Red God Valley, the foremost among the youth across several Great Domains, a strong and powerful contender even in the Human Emperor’s battle for supremacy, receiving attention from all sides. He was accustomed to having his demands met, whether rain or shine; he had never faced such an awkward situation, being regarded as prey by a bunch of lowly bandits.

The Red-scaled King was furiously angry, didn’t even inquire for a reason, and started slaughtering with a stern face, displaying the invincible might of a sovereign.

Though only a Semi-Saint, standing at Nine Layers Peak, and cultivating all aspects to the extreme, his combat power was unmatched, capable of killing enemies across Great Realms. Alone, within a day, he pushed forward eight thousand li in the wilderness, sweeping through thirty-six bandit nests, slaying ten Divinity Transformation Experts, and causing countless casualties among bandit grunts, blood flowing into rivers, forging a blood path.

The dignity of a sovereign was not an empty word; such a figure was terrifying, young but already manifesting the battle power of a sovereign.

However, bandits seemed innumerable, as this was the Black Sky Plain, the largest bandit stronghold in the world, no matter how many he killed.

And because of the Black Order’s bounty, countless bandits swarmed in upon learning of Red-scaled King’s location.

"Why do these bandits go mad and rush at me as soon as they see me?"

The Red-scaled King’s face was dark, and he was also puzzled for he had yet encountered such a ferocious pursuit by bandits even before entering the Black Sky Plain.

The strong ones from Red God Valley were quite baffled, unable to grasp what was happening, as the situation was too strange.

The face of the Seventeenth Elder also looked displeased. Thinking that the Immortal Sacred Land of Red God Valley was warmly welcomed wherever it went, when had it ever been subject to such an affront as being hunted?

And those who hunted them were not unparalleled experts, just a group of bandits unfit to appear before the public.

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated; we cannot suffer from groundless accusations!"

Not long after, wielding tremendous power, they finally coerced the truth from a bandit. Once they knew everything, their faces sank completely, dark as if dripping with water.

They realized that someone had impersonated them; someone was masquerading as the Red-scaled King in Black Sky Plain, killing in all directions, destroying bandit nests, claiming responsibility for grievously wounding the Fifth Great Bandit’s most beloved grandson, and even breaking the Divine Spear of the Black Mountain Lord, inviting a Black Order bounty on his head.

All of this had been blamed on them.

The real culprit was someone else.

In an instant, the Red-scaled King thought of Ye Chen, having crossed swords with him in Xia Valley City and knowing his strength to be on the level of a young sovereign.

As a result, he suspected it was Ye Chen impersonating him and making moves against them.

Likewise, the Seventeenth Elder thought of this, saying, "There is no doubt, it’s most likely this guy impersonating you and causing us injustice."

The strong ones in Red God Valley were utterly furious, not expecting that the puny youngster they were pursuing was actually turning the tables and pursuing them while stirring up many bandits in Black Sky Plain to hunt them, which was indeed infuriating.

Boom, Boom, Boom—

In the distance, the ground trembled, with clouds of dust storming the skies, and streams of blood qi like wolf smoke entering the vast Yu, shaking hearts, resounding in all directions.

In the far distance could be seen a formidable and terrifying knight army advancing, each exuding strong blood qi, clad in chilly Battle Armor, wielding sharp long spears, and riding terrible Wilderness Beasts beneath them, stepping on the void and charging with a fearsome momentum, changing the color of the wind and clouds.

Facing this scene, even the Seventeenth Elder, a Semi-Saint, changed color, because this group of Divine Knights was absolutely extraordinary, and their terrifying momentum was enough to frighten him.

From afar, a huge banner fluttered within this terrifying group of Divine Knights, displaying a dancing dragon and the character "Five."

"This is bad, this is the Demon God Ride under the Fifth Great Bandit, the strongest division of Divine Knights, far from ordinary three teachings and nine streams’ bandits. They are all elites, even stronger than the Forbidden Knights of the Ancient Country."

The Seventeenth Elder changed color; he was well-versed and naturally knew the terrifying aspect of this group of Divine Knights before him.

Each of the Black Sky Eight Bandits was a paramount figure, each establishing a powerful force, possessing terrifying strength, no weaker than the ancient countries surrounding the Black Sky Plain, and their subordinates were even more fearsome.

The Demon God Ride was the most powerful invincible Divine Ride under the Fifth Great Bandit, possessing unmatched combat strength, comprising five hundred people divided into five divisions, each with one hundred people. But each was a carefully selected expert, including Divinity Transformation Realm experts, even rumored together in formation, they are hardly weaker than a Great Bandit.

Now the hundred Demon God Ride that had arrived belonged to one division, swarming in with an overwhelming momentum, their blood qi like beacon fires, collapsing the sky, even shaking the Divine Ship of the Red God Valley, causing it to tremble and the Divine Light to flicker almost falling from the sky.

The strong ones of the Red God Valley changed color, not expecting the strongest army, the Demon God Ride under the Fifth Great Bandit, to appear; an army that could sweep through numerous kingdoms, unparalleled.

Even just one division was extremely terrifying.

At last, the hundred Demon God Ride stopped instantly on the wilderness, from moving to absolute stillness in just a moment, perfectly aligned without any disorder, appearing much more disciplined and grim than any bandit group, even more so than the strongest Forbidden Army of the Kingdom, with a suffocating aura spreading throughout.

And their target was indeed the powerful ones on the Divine Ship from Red God Valley.

Again, they came to cause trouble for them.

The powerful ones of the Red God Valley all looked extremely upset, cursing that detestable thief who had brought upon them such a terrifying division of the Demon God Ride.

Moreover, at this moment, escaping was not an option because the essence qi and spirit of the Demon God Ride had locked onto the Divine Ship, making escape impossible, otherwise they had no doubt that the moment they tried to flee, this division of the Demon God Ride would strike a terrorizing blow, shattering the Divine Ship.

Even the Seventeenth Elder, a Semi-Saint, looked extremely troubled. The combined five divisions of the Demon God Ride could match a Great Bandit, and although one division was far from that combined strength, it was still terrifyingly boundless, he had no doubt that this division could destroy a hundred miles area with their attack.

The leader of the Demon God Ride, a middle-aged man, stepped forward, clad in Divine Armor, wielding a Knight Spear, appearing valiant and authoritative, Divine Radiance flickering. Evidently a commander, he pointed at the Divine Ship and coldly shouted, "Is the Red-scaled King on the ship?"

Undoubtedly, he was a Super Expert, even setting aside his identity as the leader of the Demon God Ride, he was a phenomenal figure, at least an expert of the Seventh Layer Heaven in the Divinity Transformation Realm, serving as the commander for this division of the Demon God Ride, causing the strong ones of the Red God Valley to change color.

On the Divine Ship, the Red-scaled King flew out, accompanied by the Seventeenth Elder, confronting this scene with an unpleasant expression, yet still managed to clasp his fists from afar, "I am Li Xuekui, the Seventeenth Elder of the Red God Valley. May I ask, to what do we owe the visit of the Demon God Ride under the Fifth Great Bandit?"

"I am Mo Han, the Fourth Commander of the Demon God Ride, ordered by our lord to invite the Red-scaled King to visit the Fifth City, please accompany us there," Commander Mo Han said, even though it was phrased as an invitation, the tone was cold and merciless, sounding more like capturing the Red-scaled King.

This assertive attitude made the strong ones of the Red God Valley tense up, it was clearly not an invitation but a capture of the Red-scaled King, and such a visit would likely be a one-way trip.

The expression of the Red-scaled King changed even more, he who had never been treated this way, immediately snorted coldly.

And the Seventeenth Elder’s face turned even darker, clasped his fists and said, "Please tell the Fifth Great Bandit that our king still has urgent matters to attend to and cannot afford to go."

"Let’s go!"

The Seventeenth Elder flicked his sleeve, and the strong ones of the Red God Valley immediately maneuvered the Divine Ship to leave, not lingering a moment more.

However, the Fourth Commander Mo Han coldly said, "If the Red-scaled King doesn’t go, then don’t blame us for making a move, forcibly taking him away, attack!"

Boom—

Divine Power surged, one hundred Demon God Ride attacked directly, each releasing a devastating Divine Light, the combined attack of over a hundred Demon God Ride aligned, was earth-shattering, alarming the heavens and terrifying the spirits, as the world burst apart, sweeping across the Divine Ship, making the void seem as if it would shatter.

The strong ones of the Red God Valley instantly changed color, and the Seventeenth Elder immediately charged forward, coldly shouting, "How bold of the Demon God Ride, do you really think I’m afraid of you?"

He emitted a vast and overwhelming Dao Power, sweeping across the heavens, dispersing the clouds, also carrying strands of terrifying Saintly Might, pressuring the Nine Layer Heaven.

The Semi-Saint made his move...

Meanwhile, far on the horizon, Chenn Ruo wearing a black robe appeared alongside Ye Chen holding the Heavenly Divine Spear, striding forward and said, "Miss Chenn Ruo, please cover me later, I need to intercept the Red-scaled King!"
