Chapter 20: War Between The Righteous And Demonic Path Part 1

Inside the floating palace, variety of peak masters of their own renowned peak were present, sitting in a large crystalized table that was close to transparent. An old man who owned the floating palace was present, his hair was bluish white, his face is still handsome but was covered in beard and wearing a golden robe with black embroidery was in the middle of the seat, listening to what the peak masters were talking about.

In the midst of the arguing peak masters, Mo Xian slammed the table, his black and blue spiritual qi flowed out of his palm as he looked at the arguing peak masters with a frown in his face. The meeting hall became silent, Tian Lang was just listening while fanning hinself beside Mo Xian, raising his eyebrows at the peak masters.

Mo Xian's deep but slightly soft voice echoed as he spoke,

Mo Xian said additionally. The hall was silent, no one dared to talk back to Mo Xian because hisbwords were right until the old man with a bluish hair spoke.

Mo Xian's gentle face came back and sighed heavily before answering,

Tian Lang spoke and stood uo with a frown in his face, he couldn't take it anymore while listening to the tantrums of the peak masters and continued,

The whole hall was silent, their face were full of shock, despair and terror. All of them knew the horror of the demon king when he was unsealed and was roaming at the mortal realm. The Former Mount Hua Peak Master was the only one who was brave enough to seal him in the history that's why cultivators gained their confidence after the underworld gate disappeared and the demon king was sealed. They raised their authority and power by recruiting and accepting disciples from the mortal realm and gaining more talents of the future generation.

The floating palace owner's mouth trembled a bit by hearing the demon king. He expected that the demon king's seal will weaken someday and it will escape from the underworld again but he didn't expect that it would be too soon! His hand was trembling and was about to say something when a cultivator slammed the door open and shouted,

In a blink of an eye, all the peak masters where outside the floating palace, unsheating their weapons and staring at the messy towns and empire of the mortals below.

the cultivator who shouted earlier grabbed a cylinder shaped stick in his waist, infused his spiritual qi in it as it raise in the air and explode showing out a big black smoke in mid air with a red sparks.

Liu Xiao banged the large red door. Even though his room looked luxurious and was full of different kinds of foods and drinks, he didn't understand why he was locked up.

What the fuck?! I was just at the inn of the Yong'an Empire yesterday and now i'm here in a luxurious mansion?! This is so confusing... What is happening outside?!

Liu Xiao shouted. Suddenly, a black purple small ball of fire went through the closed door and it slowly turned into a figure of a young man.

Liu Xiao cut off his words and the demon was silent. the demon didn't respond and let out a slight smile in his face. Liu Xiao frowned and said,

the demon hesitantly said.

Liu Xiao was dumbfounded for a moment and suddey pulled his hair. WAR?! WHY IS THERE A WAR?! Is it the war between the demon cult and the martial peak masters?! It's supposed to be a few years later why is everything happening sooner?!

the young demon tried to comfort him but Liu Xiao keeps pulling his hair out of frustration.

Oh my god, i'm going crazy! Everything is happening sooner! Did Wu Qingge cultivated properly?! What if he was weak in the war?! But wait even though he's weak he's still the protagonist, there will be a plot armor of course... And after the war Wu Qingge will be....

Liu Xiao shouted, preparing his sword and other things and wearing thebsecond layer of his robe and was about to open the large red door but the young demon stopped him.

Liu Xiao insisted, his face became sullen and his eywbrows frowning.

The young demon was stunned and his eyes slowly narrowed while looking at Liu Xiao with a puzzled expression. Liu Xiao was feeling impatient to leave right now but he still sighed and started to explain,

Liu Xiao asked, the young demon slowly nodded and started to unlock the large red door by infusing his demonic qi and it slowly opened. Liu Xiao frowned and wondered why it wouldn't open even though he smashed it just to realize that it was locked by a demonic qi, he turned at the young demon and tapped his both shoulders.

the demon started to float mid air and Liu Xiao hopled on his sword. He realized that the mansion was on top of a highlands that was full of tall mountains and cliffs. He frowned at the sight and approached the demon in the front. Liu Xiao asked while frowning.

The demon hesitated by he still answered, Wow, Wu Qingge! How considerate!

Liu Xiao cleared his throat and replied,

Wait—he said that i'm his weakness or something... Is it related to that? But i'm strong he doesn't need to worry about me. Most importantly, i am the one who should be worried! He will be sucked whole by that underworld gate like a black hole and he will be trapped for so many years! Even though he ended up becoming a demon king in there and started to take revenge by taking over the demonic cult but i didn't know what happened after that! What if the way he treats me changed?!

Ever since Liu Xiao amd Wu Qingge started traveling together, Liu Xiao never assumed that Wu Qingge would try to kill him anymore. It's like overcoming a big obstacle or getting a large and sharp thorn plucked. But what if after Wu Qingge became a demon king and lose his humanity will forget about him? His death flag will raise even more!

Wu Qingge, you're already strong. Fuck being a demon king! Even though i'm a cannon fodder , i treated you like a brother! I have the right to stop it..... No, I will stop it even if it's an unstoppable plot!

the demon subordinates shouted while the mortal realm was a mess. Mo Xian and Tian Lang one sidedly massacred the demon subornates that was trying to attack the cultivators and mortals while the other peak masters were eliminating the demons that were roaming in the mortal realm.

The owner of the floating palace looked at the distressing sight of the mortal realm right now, he can't help but to sigh and flick his hand, bunch of translarent crystals covered in white bluish spiritual qi appeared and striked the direction of the hundred thousand demon cult subordinates and the roaming demons on the way. Another person also flicked his hand and a black red demonic qi emerged and scattered the incoming sharp crystals.

The person who stopped the incoming sharo crystals was Dao Ling, the demon cukt leader. He was sitting in a black throne, his face was handsome and sinister, it didn't showed any emotion but was only a stoic and expressionless face while boringly looking at the mess he made.

The hundreds of heavenly demons and generals beside him didn't even tried to attack and move but was just standing beside, their faces covered in veils and mask and was just looking at the fighting demon cults and cultivators.

Later on, a voice of a woman covered in veil spoke beside Dao Ling,

Dao Ling put his hands on his chin, the hem of his pure black and gold robe fluttered when he shifted his sitting position and simply said,

In a blin of an eye, the hundred of heavenly demons and generals leaped to the direction of the grinning cultivators who thought they were gaining victory and in a split second, the cultivators were lying on the ground, their bodies were cold and lifeless.

The tables suddenly turned and the fifty thousand cultivators are now the one who were one sidedly massacred by the hundreds of heavenly demons and generals. Mo Xian and Tian Lang frowned and joined the battle, they were able to kill ten of them and Bai Lan, Chen Yi, Shan Ling, Lan Yang and the two peak masters who arrived late, Su Luxia and Zhan Baiwon appeared and joined the fight. The trembling owner of the floating palace let out a sigh of relief by looking at them.

Even though the righteous path gained a little bit of advantage, the remainijg heavenly demons and generals were too strong and there are more demons roaming in the mortal realm so they decided to split up. In the midst of the bloody battle and messy looking war, a large and wide black purplish spiritual qi spread out all over and there, stood a man dressed in a black and blood red robe, looking radiant and peerless. Dao Ling who was expressionless earlier, let out a sinister smile as his dark red eyes glowed.
