Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi
Chapter 943 - 941: Demon Lord Emerges, Effort in Vain? [Fourth Update]

"Oh fuck, is this the end of Celestial Dragon Temple!"

Xiao Yi's eyes twitched frantically, his emotions indescribable.

He had originally planned for Little Lin and Jie Se to secretly bury a demon refining site covered by an Array in Ten Thousand Dragons City, then have Xuan Cang and others enter the city and publicly expose this demon refining site.

Once a demon refining site was found in Ten Thousand Dragons City, where three-tenths of the followers of Celestial Dragon Temple were gathered.

It would be like having mud on the crotch of your pants—it's not shit, but it might as well be!

Then...

No matter how Celestial Dragon Temple and Celestial Dragon Supreme try to explain, they won't be able to disassociate themselves from the Demonic Path.

That being so.

Shaolin Temple would also be able to justifiably join the crusade, and with the combined force of the three Buddhist Nations, they could annihilate Celestial Dragon Temple in no time.

However...

What Xiao Yi never expected was that beneath Ten Thousand Dragons City, there truly lain a giant demon?

"Boss, there is a huge demon beneath us, you need to do something..." Little Lin's cry for help snapped Xiao Yi back to reality. He saw a massive demonic hand covered in black hair emerging from the billowing Demonic Qi below, reaching for him and Jie Se.

This palm was colossal, covered with endless black hair.

Each strand of black hair was condensed from Demonic Qi.

This was definitely a Great Demon.

Tie futu and the believers of Celestial Dragon Temple were flabbergasted. They were no longer considering how Little Lin and Jie Se came out of the city lord's residence, nor why they knew Xiao Yi.

At this moment...

Everyone was captivated by the overwhelming demon hand and towering Demonic Qi.

Meanwhile...

The news that there was a giant demon underneath Ten Thousand Dragons City also hit these followers of Celestial Dragon Temple hard, almost shattering their faith!

"It's not possible, this must be an illusion, an illusion..."

"Celestial Dragon Temple is a righteous Buddhist sect, how could it be related to demons?"

"What, what have we been believing in all these years? Demons?"

"Damn it, Celestial Dragon Temple, actually related to demons, we've been living with demons..."

The indestructible faith of the followers of Celestial Dragon Temple was continuously crumbling.

Even Tie futu, the most hardcore believer, was bewildered at this moment: "The Ten Thousand Dragons City that I have guarded for a thousand years, actually harbors a demon lord? Is this, this raised by Celestial Dragon Temple?"

Just as Little Lin and another were about to be injured by the massive demonic claw, Xiao Yi's body was enveloped in golden light, and a hundred-yard tall Buddha shadow formed behind him.

"Mahavairocana Mantra!"

Xiao Yi shouted loudly, and the immense Buddha shadow fiercely slapped out with a palm.

Buzz!

Countless Buddhist scriptures circulated, condensing into a gigantic golden hand.

The palm was as massive as a mountain, with clearly visible lines, and at the center of the palm bloomed a brilliant golden light from a swastika Buddha seal, like a proud sun embedded in the heart of the palm.

Buzz!

With one palm strike.

Heaven and earth shook, the sun and moon lost their light.

It collided fiercely with the seething giant demonic claw.

Boom!

A huge and dull sound thundered, causing visible ripples in the surrounding void, and from the midst of the hissing sounds rose towering black mists.

Roar!

A deep and angry roar came from beneath the ground.

The massive demonic claw exploded with a loud bang.

However, the Demonic Qi beneath the ground did not weaken at all; instead, it became even more terrifying, like the suppressed magma in an active volcano about to erupt.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom...

The ground shook wildly, as black streams of Demonic Qi transformed into enormous tornadoes, bursting forth from the underground. They shredded buildings mid-air and swept countless devout followers into the sky.

Xiao Yi shouted, "Xuan Cang, Guang Liang, save the people first!"

Xuan Cang and the other finally snapped back to reality.

They had thought this was a ploy arranged by Xiao Yi to pin on Celestial Dragon Temple.

But now it seemed...

This was not Xiao Yi's scheme at all; it was really a true Great Demon beneath Ten Thousand Dragons City!

"Truly worthy of being Xiao Buddha King, he must have long known that Celestial Dragon Temple indeed had connections with demonic paths, thus he was so confident in having us strike at Ten Thousand Dragons City!" Xuan Cang and the other looked at Xiao Yi with not only reverence but also genuine admiration.

Who could have expected that a true demon lord was hidden beneath Ten Thousand Dragons City?

Their awe for Xiao Yi's tactics intensified.

If Xiao Yi knew what they were thinking, he would certainly have commented sarcastically, I didn't know anything! All of this is just a coincidence, okay?

Xuan Cang took the lead, rushing forward, a sweep of his hand releasing a golden Buddha light that repelled Demonic Qi and saved thousands: "All from Hanging Temple, follow me to save people!"

"Amitabha, saving a life surpasses building a seven-tiered pagoda; all from Vajra Temple follow me to act..." Guang Liang's Buddha Beads rolled out, also saving thousands.

Iron Pagoda repelled the incredibly powerful Demonic Qi while rescuing civilians.

Seeing monks from Hanging Temple, Vajra Temple, and Shaolin Temple around him saving people, his eyes were filled with gratitude, but also resentment towards Celestial Dragon Temple: "This is true Buddhist mercy, unlike those hypocritical monks from Celestial Dragon Temple..."

Everyone simultaneously resisted the overwhelming Demonic Qi and saved one follower after another.

It seemed to thoroughly enrage the Great Demon underground.

Countless streams of Demonic Qi dissipated, followed by an even more terrifying demonic force erupting from beneath the ground. It transformed into a giant column of Demonic Qi tens of miles in diameter, pitch black, shooting straight into the clouds.

The black column of Demonic Qi connected heaven and earth.

Boundless dark Qi spread out, centering on the column of Demonic Qi, covering a thousand miles in overwhelming Demonic Qi.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

In the drum-like footsteps, a giant demonic shadow, several tens of meters tall, emerged from underground. He was wrapped in black chains, his body covered with layers of dark Scale Armor, surrounded by soaring demonic flames, his eyes brighter than the sun and moon.

His blood-red hair moved without any wind.

His blood-colored eyes swept towards Xiao Yi and others, emitting bursts of bloodthirsty laughter: "Hahaha, I've finally freed myself, you damned monks, all of you shall become sacrifices for my liberation! And that Celestial Dragon Supreme, who dared suppress me in the past, now that I'm free, I shall annihilate your entire Celestial Dragon Temple..."

"Wait, was the Demon Lord suppressed and sealed by Celestial Dragon Supreme?"

"Could it be that we misunderstood Celestial Dragon Supreme?"

Everyone was stunned.

The faces of Xuan Cang and Guang Liang changed drastically. If this demon was really suppressed under Ten Thousand Dragons City by Celestial Dragon Supreme, then all their efforts were in vain!

Could it be that all their efforts were for naught?

Both turned their gazes quickly to Xiao Yi.

Iron Pagoda and the other powerful figures from Celestial Dragon Temple also looked towards Xiao Yi.

Standing behind Xiao Yi, Fa Kong and others appeared calm on the surface, but were panicky inside, wondering what to do now?

Facing the gazes of the crowd.

"Don't panic, leave everything to me!"

Xiao Yi secretly transmitted his voice to Xuan Cang, Fa Kong, and others, yet maintained a deadpan expression, and sneered: "..."
