The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 593 - 592: The Ten Demon Emperors

Chapter 593: Chapter 592: The Ten Demon Emperors

A million li of land instantaneously transformed into a hemispherical barrier of Absolute Defense, enveloping the Demon King Tukun within it.

This technique was truly shocking and unconventional.

But upon closer consideration, one finds solace.

After all, beings at the level of a Demon King are of the same caliber as Mo Yunchui.

For such existences to possess this level of strength is not surprising.

It was completely within the realm of reason.

It’s just that very few of the Demon Clan possess Daoist Magic, otherwise their strength would surpass that of the Human Clan Cultivators.

Their physiques are naturally much stronger than those of Cultivators from the Human Clan.

Among the Human Clan, powerful Cultivators mainly derive their might from their ability to master various terrifying Divine Communication Skills, which naturally translates to them being exceptionally formidable when those powers burst forth.

However, excluding those monstrous individuals possessing a Divine Body or Sacred Body, the other Cultivators, even if they are remarkable in strength, are at a complete disadvantage in terms of physique when facing the Demon Race and Demon Clan.

These are each side’s strengths.

But back to the main point.

Upon sensing danger, the Demon King Tukun almost hesitated for nothing before he invoked his Innate Divine Ability, controlling the earth to form an absolute defense.

Unless someone can shatter the million-li territory’s Absolute Defense, there is no hope of threatening him!

"Hasn’t the Demon Lord already decreed that private fighting is forbidden, who exactly is this person..."

A cold and ruthless killing intent flickered in the eyes of the Demon King Tukun.

This plan had the Demon Lord summoning all the strong from the Demon Realm, strictly forbidding infighting and slaughter.

Violators would be personally killed by the Demon Lord himself.

But at this critical moment, someone actually made a move against him!

The first reaction of Demon King Tukun was to suspect other Demon Kings from the Demon Clan.

In this Demon Realm, many Demon Kings and Demon Emperors have their own territories, and there is significant strife between them even in normal times.

Life-and-death battles are a common affair.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been stopped by a single East Desolate Mo Family.

If they had joined forces, they would have definitely had a chance to break into the East Desolate.

It was just regrettable that with incessant internal strife and the Demon Lord not showing up, they could only watch helplessly as the people from the Mo family rampaged through the Demon Realm.

However, this time, it seemed the Demon Lord could no longer stand by and personally ordered the assembly of all Demon Emperors and Kings, intending to step into the East Desolation Domain for a grand Taotie feast.

At such a juncture, someone dared to strike at him?

"Protect the lord!"

At that moment, the Demon Marshal powerhouses not far from the Demon King Tukun gathered around him.

Boom!

However,

at the next moment, the Demon King Tukun’s whole body suddenly rolled his eyes and collapsed on the ground without any strength.

Even at the last moment, Demon King Tukun did not know who had acted against him and just died outright.

"My lord?!"

The surrounding Demon Marshals were dumbfounded, then immediately rushed over.

Hum————

At this time, a dark light slowly illuminated from between the eyebrows of the Demon King Tukun.

Then, a black bead about the size of an eyeball slowly floated out.

To the shock of the surrounding Demon Marshals, the bead vanished in a blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, Ye Xuan, stealthily traversing underground, procured a black bead in his hand.

"A Demon King’s Demon Pearl, acquired..."

Ye Xuan whispered softly, quickening his pace.

"You... you killed a Demon King?" Little Meng Chan was bewildered.

Seeing the Demon Pearl in Ye Xuan’s hand, Meng Chan knew it to be true.

But she found it hard to believe.

How exactly had this been accomplished?

To kill a Demon King while on the move, without even stopping?

That’s a being at the Demon King Level!

Even to someone as knowledgeable as Meng Chan, the situation felt overwhelmingly perplexing.

It was just too bizarre.

"Has someone at the Demon Emperor Level noticed..." Without answering Meng Chan, Ye Xuan’s night-like black eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent.

His move had been silent, yet the Demon King Tukun’s reaction was too great, drawing the attention of the nearby Demon Kings. The sitting Demon Emperor had noticed as well and was now heading this way.

"Forget it, now is not the time for confrontation. If it lures out the Demon Lord, escaping won’t be easy."

Ye Xuan suppressed the crazed thought in his mind, maintaining his composure.

He wouldn’t mind unleashing an unrestrained rampage.

But at this moment, Little Meng Chan was still there, and although she could make use of her Lifebound Character, she was no match for the terrifying existence of the opponents at the Demon Emperor and Demon Lord levels.

Not to mention the current Little Meng Chan, even if the Sect Leaders with Overlord-level strength from the East Desolation were to be summoned, they would definitely struggle to stay calm at this moment.

Just to be safe, it was better to first take Little Meng Chan to a secure location, then pass on the news to the Mo family to get them prepared.

As for whether to take action, that could be decided based on the situation at the time.

If the Mo family couldn’t cope, it wouldn’t be too late to take action.

Whiz!

Having made up his mind, Ye Xuan once again exerted his full power to use Earth Escape, rushing towards the exit of the Demon Realm.

After Ye Xuan left, within the territory of the Demon King Tu Kun, in the sky above, demonic clouds gathered for hundreds of thousands of miles.

Within those demonic clouds, an army of tens of millions from the Demon Clan assembled.

The weakest among them were at the Demon Soldier level, unleashing thunderous roars as if venting dissatisfaction.

A lineup of Demon Kings at the rear exerted a terrifying presence that swept across all directions.

No!

Not just Demon Kings!

There were also over a hundred entities of the Demon Emperor Level!

The horrifying lineup was enough to send shivers down one’s spine.

But at that moment, whether it were the Demon Kings or the Demon Emperors, their gazes were all converging on the ten figures at the very front.

At the forefront, there were ten distinctly different terrifying beings.

There were three women and seven men.

Some stood with swords erect, others sat cross-legged in the void, some had their hands behind their backs, and others wore indifferent smiles on their faces.

These ten people seemed to have no difference from the Human Clan.

Likened to Great Cultivators from among the humans, they possessed a unique aura of transcendence that inspired reverence in others.

"This surreptitiously sneaking in human rat seems to be quite extraordinary, capable of killing the Demon King Tu Kun on the way..."

One charming woman said in a sweet voice, her eyes swirling with allure.

Next to her, a burly man with a robust physique and bare upper body, his expression defiant, casually said, "The killing of Tu Kun only shows his lack of strength. As for those two rats, they’re merely passing on what they know back to the East Desolate Mo Family. But we have already come this far; what good is it to pass on the message?"

"When will the Demon Lord arrive?" asked another, a purple-haired youth with an indifferent expression and arms crossed over his chest, in a detached tone.

"Our lord has only instructed us to wait here," replied the first enchanting woman softly, her voice carrying a natural seductiveness.

The Demon Kings and Demon Emperors behind them all felt a stirring flame of lust within.

Yet, they dared not let their gazes linger on that seductive woman, fearing for their lives.

This charming woman appeared like a courtesan, but they all knew very well.

She was none other than Qian Mei Demon Emperor, one of the ten great Demon Emperors under the Demon Lord!

Her seductive looks and even a mere frown could claim lives.

There was once a mid-ranked Demon Emperor who was arrogant and boisterous, boasting about taking Qian Mei under his wing and doting on her properly.

By the next day, that Demon Emperor had turned into a pile of bones.

After that, there were few who dared to covet Qian Mei Demon Emperor.

In fact, it wasn’t just Qian Mei; the two who had spoken earlier were also among the top ten Demon Emperors.

The one tall and burly as an ox, with a defiant countenance, was the Gray Wolf Demon Emperor, a true battle maniac.

No less than ten Demon Emperors had fallen at his hands.

The other one, the purple-haired youth with arms crossed, was called Zi He, known as the Soul Weeping Demon Emperor.

The identities of the other seven figures also became clear.

The top ten Demon Emperors.

All had arrived.

Rumors had it that within this vast Demon Realm, there were far more than ten high-ranking Demon Emperors.

However, only ten could ever live in the Demon Realm at any given time.

Similarly, the positions of the ten great Demon Emperors were always changing.

Yet, several of them had held their position for a very long time.

For example, the fifth figure from the left, who appeared young, with a thin frame and a sickly pale complexion—he had sat in this position for over a hundred thousand years.

His name was Sick Dragon.

Known as the Sick Dragon Demon Emperor.

The second in command among the ten great Demon Emperors.

Ye Xuan’s killing of Tu Kun had come to their attention.

But instead of taking action, they let Ye Xuan leave safely.

Just as Gray Wolf Demon Emperor had said, in their eyes, the message Ye Xuan carried was of little consequence to them.

Because...

The Demon Lord had emerged.
