Chapter 756: Chapter 757: Pope’s Challenge

"What?"

"The Great Demon King?!"

Ye Lingtian could hardly believe it as he raised his head and saw the purple-robed elder before him, and immediately bowed with his hands clasped, "Junior has seen the senior Great Demon King..."

The mention of the Great Demon King completely stunned the entire room!

"Damn, the legendary Great Demon King!"

"Top powerhouse of Dragon Country!"

"We’re saved!" Yan Donglai, Dugu Zhan, and others had their eyes glowing with excitement.

The White Holy Envoy’s gaze was filled with gravity, finding the mysterious elder from Dragon Country increasingly unfathomable!

"May I ask your esteemed name?" the White Holy Envoy asked tentatively.

"My name is not something you’re worthy of knowing!" the Great Demon King stood with his hands behind his back, radiating a majestic and proud demeanor.

"Sir, I am acting under the Pope’s orders to handle internal affairs! I hope you will not interfere!" the White Holy Envoy cited the Pope’s authority.

In the west, the Pope was heaven, an invincible existence!

Upon hearing this, anyone would have to weigh their own strength!

"Trying to scare me with the Pope’s name?" the Great Demon King’s eyes showed disdain, and he sneered, "You’re lucky I’m in a good mood today, so scram fast. Otherwise, wait for the Pope himself to collect your corpse!"

"White Holy Envoy, this guy is too arrogant!"

"When have we ever been so humiliated?" Several warriors from the Western Sacred Court couldn’t help but speak out.

"Shut up!" the White Holy Envoy glared coldly at his subordinates, stating, "He is an advanced True Pill realm great cultivator; do you understand the concept of the late True Pill realm? That’s an existence even the Pope must show considerable respect to!"

Hiss!

Several displeased Sacred Court warriors immediately bowed their heads, daring not to breathe heavily!

"Withdraw!" declared the White Holy Envoy, not daring to stay here a minute longer, and immediately retreated.

"White Holy Envoy, don’t leave! What will become of us, the Wolf Tribe?" the Wolf Tribe’s clan leader, Torres, clung to the White Holy Envoy’s legs, begging pitifully.

"Get lost, move!" the White Holy Envoy harshly kicked Torres away, saying angrily, "If you want to die, don’t drag me down with you!"

Saying this, the White Holy Envoy left without looking back.

As arrogant as the Sacred Court was before arriving, they departed just as pitifully!

This scene was a profound shock for the nearly ten thousand Western martial artists present!

"Damn, am I seeing things? The White Holy Envoy and the people of the Sacred Court skulked away..."

"It’s my first time seeing the Sacred Court take a beating!"

"This great power from Dragon Country is too terrifying!"

Torres knelt before the Great Demon King, continuously kowtowing and begging, "Senior, senior, I was wrong, please spare me!"

The Great Demon King slowly extended a finger.

Thump!

Torres’s head was pierced by a terrible purple mana, and he died instantly!

"The Wolf Tribe’s Clan Leader is dead!"

"That’s ruthless!"

All the onlookers gasped.

After killing Torres, the Great Demon King then set his gaze on Ye Lingtian beside him, noticed the aura on Ye Lingtian’s body, and showed a look of surprise, "Have you broken through to the True Pill realm?"

"Just barely..." Ye Lingtian replied modestly.

"Heh heh, impressive, truly worthy of being Ye Zhenguo’s son!" complimented the Great Demon King, then turned his attention to Ye Wudao.

"This young man, you’ve made quite the progress lately, even advancing to the pseudo-Holy realm," the Great Demon King said with a smile.

"Heh heh," Ye Wudao grinned, then asked, "Master, didn’t the outside world spread rumors that you failed your tribulation?"

"You’re so eager for your master to be alive?" the Great Demon King glared at Ye Wudao.

"Not at all," Ye Wudao hastily shook his head.

"A mere thunder tribulation cannot kill your master," declared the Great Demon King confidently.

Hiss!

Everyone gasped!

Just how strong was the Great Demon King?

Even the legendary tribulation that could shatter everything could not harm him.

"Kid, is this your fiancée?" the Great Demon King’s gaze shifted to Su Yueli beside Ye Wudao, his eyes showing surprise; "Turns out she has the rare Phoenix attribute, interesting."

"Yes!" Ye Wudao nodded, quickly pulling Su Yueli to his side and said, "Yueli, this is my master, the Great Demon King!"

"Nice to meet you, Master," Su Yueli greeted obediently.

"Good, good, good!" The Great Demon King smiled slightly, took out a purple bracelet from his person, and said, "This is the Purple Phoenix bracelet, impervious to all poisons, and it can protect you from three attacks from True Pill realm cultivators!"

What?

Withstand three attacks from a True Pill realm cultivator!

Everyone hearing this was shocked, their faces immediately showing envy and jealousy.

"Master, this, this is too valuable, I can’t accept it!" Su Yueli shook her head, not taking rewards without merits, especially when the item was too precious!

"Yueli, our master lacks nothing, especially not money. Just accept this gift from him, it’s a token of his heart," Ye Wudao said, then grinned at the Great Demon King; "Master, I want one too!"

Smack!

The Great Demon King slapped Ye Wudao on the head; "I’ll give you a slap on the back of your head, do you want it?"

"Ah, Master, that hurts!" Ye Wudao immediately grimaced in pain, covering his head with his hand.

"Your dad is reluctant to hit you, but I’m not!" the Great Demon King said fiercely.

Ye Wudao quickly turned to Ye Lingtian; "Dad, Master is hitting me, you can’t just stand by and watch!"

Ye Lingtian wisely chose to selectively ignore him; "The Great Demon King is beating you for your own good. Besides, I’m far from his match!"

Ye Lingtian was admittedly honest.

What a joke!

In all of Dragon Country, how many people could match the Great Demon King?

Just then, an incredibly sacred voice came from a distant place; "Hehe, Great Demon King, since you are here in the West, why not come to my Holy Court for a catch-up?"

Upon hearing this voice, everyone present was thunderstruck, all the martial artists from the west knelt down, their faces full of reverence and fear.

"My God, it’s the Pope!"

"The Pope himself has spoken!"

Ye Lingtian, Ye Wudao, and others chatting and laughing suddenly had a change in expression, feeling a tremendous pressure!

The Pope!

That’s the ruler of the Western Holy Court!

The first person of the West in public!

Rumored also to be one of the most top-tier True Pill realm cultivators!

The Great Demon King said indifferently; "Pope, old fellow, let’s skip the catch-up. We have nothing to chat about."

"Hehe, please, Lord Great Demon King, come to the Holy Court for a battle!" The sacred, ethereal voice rose again, the call to battle echoing far and wide.

What?

The Great Demon King stood with his hands behind his back, said indifferently; "Fine, I just feel like punching something!"

Ye Wudao and the others turned pale, quickly said; "Master, the Pope must have set a trap, you mustn’t fall for it!"

"Indeed, Lord Great Demon King!"

Seeing the Great Demon King ignoring them, Ye Wudao turned his gaze to Ye Lingtian; "Dad, please, you persuade Master too!"

"If Lord Great Demon King dares to accept, he surely won’t make a mistake," Ye Lingtian said.

The Great Demon King looked at Ye Lingtian, said; "Ling Tian, take them back to Dragon Country, I’ll head to the Western Holy Court."

"Yes," Ye Lingtian nodded.

"Master, I’ll go with you!" Ye Wudao spoke up.

"Yeah, I want to witness the grandeur of a battle between the Great Demon King and the Pope!"

"This is a top-tier cultivator’s battle, definitely earth-shattering!" Yan Donglai and others looked on with longing.

"Hehe, let’s not. If the old fellow, the Pope, loses, he can’t save face!" the Great Demon King chuckled lightly, then said; "I’m off!"

The next moment, the Great Demon King’s body turned into a purple ray of light and vanished in an instant.

Seeing this, Ye Lingtian immediately bowed with his fist; "Farewell, Great Demon King!"

"Farewell, Great Demon King!" Yan Donglai and everyone else vocally expressed their deep respect.

"Master, take care!" Ye Wudao watched the vanishing purple light, his eyes full of anticipation.
