Yang Kai slowly shook his head, “There’s no need. Senior bullies the weak because his strength is stronger than mine. If I have enough strength, I can teach Senior a good lesson.”
“You’ve Become Devil!” Zhan Wuhen’s expression became extremely serious.
“Is that so?” The corners of Yang Kai’s mouth curled up into a strange smile, “Then… let’s enter the Demon World!”
Lifting his right hand slightly, he pressed it against his right eye and said in a low voice, “Black Pupil Purgatory, Boundless Darkness!”
Buzz…
Heaven and earth trembled as the entire world was suddenly shrouded in darkness, no longer having any light. In the sky, a giant eye appeared, emitting an extremely demonic light that seemed capable of stealing one’s soul. The hundreds of thousands of people in Tiger Roar City all wore pained expressions, not daring to look at it.
In this dark world, everything was quiet, as if time had stopped. Most people couldn’t sense what had happened next, only knowing that the entire world had become filled with a thick Demonic Qi that made them shiver.
Only those at the Second or Third order Emperor Realm would be able to detect some violent fluctuations.
In this dark world, Yang Kai and his Embodiment and the Great Emperor were still fighting to the death.
After an unknown amount of time, the giant eye in the sky suddenly cracked open, and the crack spread out in all directions like a spider web. With a loud bang, the giant eye shattered.
Light returned to the world and the darkness receded like a tide, the oppressive atmosphere also disappearing.
Everyone turned to look around, wanting to know what the final battle was like.
Zhan Wuhen shouted angrily, “Yang Kai, do you know what you’re doing?”
Yang Kai’s voice quickly followed, but it was filled with a sense of weakness and haggardness, “Senior has repeatedly forced me. In order to protect myself, this little brat can only do this!”
Looking towards the source of the voice, the hundreds of thousands of people in Tiger Roar City were all stunned.
Yang Kai stood in mid-air, his whole body dripping with blood, his appearance quite miserable. His giant half-dragon body had already disappeared, but one of his arms and one of his legs were twisted at an unnatural angle, obviously broken.
Li Jiao’s eyes narrowed as he watched this scene. This was the first time he had seen Yang Kai in such a miserable state. Even when he was wreaking havoc on Dragon Island, he had never been so miserable. It was clear that this time, Zhan Wuhen had not held back. Enemies with Great Emperors would not end well.
This was not what shocked him the most, but what shocked him the most was that in front of Yang Kai, there was actually a woman. He didn’t know what she was, but at this moment, she was being held hostage by Yang Kai who is holding her white neck.
Li Jiao also recognized this woman; she was Zhan Wuhen’s disciple, the little girl called Lin Yun’er, who seemed to have a good relationship with Yang Kai.
But at this moment, Yang Kai was actually willing to take her as a hostage, his hand forming a claw around her neck as if he wanted to kill Lin Yun’er.
Yang Kai’s cultivation had really gone berserk and become devil! Li Jiao’s head buzzed and he was almost unable to think straight. If it weren’t for his cultivation going berserk, how could Yang Kai have done such a crazy thing? The Demonic Qi erupting in his heart had already made him unable to act normally.
Li Jiao’s heart ached.
Gao Xueting also stared at Yang Kai with a pained expression.
She was the one who had found Lin Yun’er. Originally, she had wanted Lin Yun’er to persuade the Iron Blood Great Emperor to not make things too difficult for Yang Kai, but who would have thought that when she and Lin Yun’er returned from another city, Tiger Roar City would fall into darkness and light would reappear.
She didn’t even realize when Yang Kai had captured Lin Yun’er.
Startled for a moment, she quickly shouted, “Junior Brother Yang, let go! It’s not too late to turn back now!”
Yang Kai’s face was shrouded in Demonic Qi, making it impossible to see his expression, but Gao Xueting clearly felt him glance in her direction and then fall silent. He was actually ignoring her!
Gao Xueting’s heart sank… In such a situation, it meant that Yang Kai had become devil so deeply that he probably couldn’t even recognize her.
“Uncle Yang…” Lin Yun’er looked down at Yang Kai’s broken arm and leg, her eyes turning red as tears streamed down her face, “Does it hurt?”
As soon as these words came out, the Demonic Qi surrounding Yang Kai’s face violently trembled, but her concern did not receive any response from Yang Kai, only a fierce shout, “Shut up!”
Lin Yun’er cried even harder, perhaps because her heart ached for Yang Kai’s injuries or because he had been so fierce to her.
However, no one could accept such a scene.
The man who had single-handedly turned the tide and saved Tiger Roar City several times, leading an army of two hundred thousand to kill countless enemies, had actually become like this? In order to protect himself, he had even captured a little girl as a hostage, and when others were concerned about him, he had even spoken such malicious words?
They really couldn’t accept this, but this was the truth in front of hundreds of thousands of people. All of them fell silent and stared at Yang Kai, who was surrounded by Demonic Qi, as if they were looking at a stranger.
Strictly speaking, after a person’s cultivation went berserk, they would become another person.
“Stop, Yang Kai!” Zhan Wuhen stepped forward, “Considering the sacrifices you’ve made during this time, this King will not kill you, only cripple your cultivation and Stone Flame's.”
Yang Kai exerted some force and Lin Yun’er immediately let out a muffled groan as a bloody wound appeared on her slender white neck. A cold voice came from Yang Kai, “If you dare take another step forward, she will become a corpse!”
“You dare!” Zhan Wuhen was furious! It was not easy for him to find a disciple who could inherit his legacy. He cherished Lin Yun’er more than his own life, so how could he allow Yang Kai to kill his own disciple?
Yang Kai coldly replied, “Senior is a Great Emperor, this little brat admits that he is no match for Senior, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape from your hands, but believe it or not, before you kill me, I can bury her with me!”
Zhan Wuhen’s face sank as he stared at Yang Kai’s position and said lightly, “Tell me your conditions, how can I let you release Yun’er!”
Yang Kai said, “I’ll take her with me first and set her free once we reach a suitable place, but if Senior dares to follow me, don’t blame this Junior for not remembering our old friendship.”
“That’s all?”
“That’s all!”
“How can I believe that?”
Yang Kai said, “Senior probably doesn’t have a choice. Either you let me leave, or Yun’er and I will die together!”
Gao Xueting stepped forward and said, “Yang Kai, let her go and I’ll be your hostage.”
Yang Kai turned his head to look at her and said bitterly, “You don’t have the qualifications.”
Gao Xueting’s face went pale as she felt as if her heart had been ruthlessly cut by a knife. A kind of heart-wrenching feeling instantly enveloped her.
Zhan Wuhen said, “Even if this King agrees with you, do you think you can escape for a while? According to this King’s knowledge, you still have four wives, right? If you fall into the Demon Path, everyone will definitely want to kill you in the future. Have you thought about your four wives? How will they face the world in the future!”
Yang Kai chuckled, “Now that they can’t even protect themselves, who cares if they live or die!”
Zhan Wuhen slowly shook his head, “Yang Kai, you’ve disappointed this king too much.”
“Don’t be so long-winded!” Yang Kai shouted, the Demonic Qi covering his face also surging, clearly showing that his mood was also fluctuating, “My conditions are right here, Senior can consider them carefully, but this little brat is afraid Yun’er won’t be able to last that long!”
With Yang Kai’s hand on her neck, Lin Yun’er was fine, but the Demonic Qi on Yang Kai’s body was like a living thing, constantly spreading towards Lin Yun’er, wanting to erode her body. If this continued, Lin Yun’er might really become devil like him.
Zhan Wuhen also knew that if he didn’t act decisively, he would only end up in trouble, so he immediately waved his hand and said, “Good, this king will agree to your request, but this king will make things clear first. If you dare harm a single strand of Yun’er’s hair, this king will find you at the ends of the earth and make you suffer a fate worse than death!”
Yang Kai laughed heartily, “Many thanks, Senior. This little brat will take his leave, but please rest assured Senior, Yun’er will definitely return safely.”
As he spoke, he waved his hand and his Embodiment immediately flew out from the ruins. Compared to Yang Kai, his Embodiment was even more miserable. The evil flames on his body had been extinguished and the barbs all over his body had been flattened. It was obvious that he had suffered a great loss in the battle just now and it was unknown how long it would take for him to recover.
Yang Kai stored his Embodiment into the Mysterious Boundary Bead, and with a flash of his figure, the Space Laws fluctuated and he disappeared.
The entire city was silent! Only Zhan Wuhen looked towards a certain direction thoughtfully.
Gao Xueting and Li Jiao looked at each other, both unable to believe that such a thing would happen today. Even now, the two of them still felt like they were in a dream, secretly praying that this was really a dream, that when they woke up, everything would return to normal.
“You’re the one who forced my brother-in-law into such a state, I’ll kill you!” Fu Ling screamed as she pounced towards Zhan Wuhen and punched out.
Boom!
This punch landed on Zhan Wuhen’s chest.
Fu Ling was stunned, and so were the hundreds of thousands of people present.
The Iron Blood Great Emperor had been hit? Moreover, he had been punched by a Dragon Race cultivator.
“You… why aren’t you dodging?” Fu Ling stared at Zhan Wuhen in shock. Although she didn’t have much respect for the Iron Blood Great Emperor, he was still a Great Emperor after all, so after receiving such a blow from her, she couldn’t help feeling anxious, afraid that Zhan Wuhen would fly into a rage.
Zhan Wuhen just stared at her quietly for a long time before finally saying, “He has a demon in his heart, i can't force it!”
Fu Ling gritted her teeth and said, “Who doesn’t have a demon in their heart? Who dares to say that they have a clear conscience for the rest of their lives? If it weren’t for your constant pressure, how could Brother-in-law… how could he have become like this?”
Zhan Wuhen slowly shook his head, “It’s too late to say anything now.”
“Return my brother-in-law to me!” Fu Ling cursed as she smashed her fist into Zhan Wuhen’s chest, causing a loud bang to ring out. The strength of the Dragon Race was so great that even Zhan Wuhen’s body swayed from side to side, but he showed no intention of dodging, nor did he try to resist, only silently enduring.
