Invincible Snake Emperor

Chapter 660: Chapter 617: The Six-eyed Golden Lion’s Self-destruction

”Look, what is that?”

Outside the prison, a number of Awakened Cultivators and Demons were still locked in a fierce battle. Just then, a large, golden-furred head appeared, hanging in mid-air, causing everyone to freeze in astonishment.

The sight was utterly bizarre. A ferocious-looking head, just hanging there in the sky—anyone who saw it would be startled.

”Haha, it’s Lord Golden Lion! He was imprisoned in the deepest part of the prison. I can’t believe he escaped! This is great! We finally have a leader! With Lord Golden Lion here, we Demons won’t have to take this abuse from humans anymore!”

The crowd of Demons below grew excited, clearly recognizing the Great Demon King.

”Wait, if Lord Golden Lion escaped, why is he just a head?” one Demon wondered aloud.

”As expected of a Six-eyed Golden Lion! To not only survive as just a head but also escape from the Demon Prison... He’s truly an idol for our Demon Race!”

”Lord Golden Lion, we Little Demons swear to follow you to the death! Let’s slaughter every human in this city to avenge the suffering of our imprisonment!”

The Demons erupted in a thunderous roar. They needed a powerful backer, and without a doubt, this Six-eyed Golden Lion was the perfect choice.

”GAHAHA... To think that even after a thousand years of imprisonment, my, the Six-eyed Golden Lion’s, reputation is still so great.” The large, golden-furred head hanging in mid-air laughed ferociously. This feeling of being the center of adoration soothed its wounded pride.

Below, a group of Awakened Cultivators had also come to their senses. Seeing the large, golden-furred head, their faces turned grim. One of them, young and reckless, bellowed, ”What Six-eyed Golden Lion? Never heard of you! You’re just a head, barely clinging to life. You want to run rampant in our Wencheng? You’re courting death!”

The young Cultivator pointed his longsword forward, cutting a rather heroic figure.

”Ignorant child. Even as just a head, I can still kill you.” A sinister light flashed from the strange eye on the large, golden-furred head’s single horn.

Below, the young Martial Cultivator’s eyes bulged as if he were witnessing some boundless terror. Before he could even scream, he exploded into a mist of blood, vanishing from the world.

”Humans... all of you can die!”

Even as just a head, the Six-eyed Golden Lion was still consumed by bloodlust. Sinister light burst from its eyes, strafing the area like machine-gun fire.

BOOM... BOOM... BOOM...!

The Awakened Martial Cultivators below with weaker Cultivation didn’t even have time to react before the beams of light struck them, causing them to explode into pieces one after another.

”This is bad, run! It’s a Great Demon King Level being! We’re no match for it!”

A more experienced Cultivator screamed in terror.

”GAHAHA... All of you, die!”

In the span of just a few breaths, a dozen or so Awakened Cultivators had been utterly obliterated.

”Long live Lord Golden Lion!”

”Long live Lord Golden Lion!”

”Long live Lord Golden Lion!”

Seeing this, the Demons erupted in thunderous, excited cheers. ’With a Great Demon King like the Six-eyed Golden Lion here, what do we have to fear? Kill all the humans! Take revenge!’

”Six-eyed Golden Lion, you can barely protect yourself, yet you still have the leisure to kill these humans?”

From the deepest part of the prison, Tu Xiao’an rose into the air, appearing in the sky above Wencheng. He frowned as he looked at the large, golden-furred head that was slaughtering everything in its path and spoke.

’This Six-eyed Golden Lion is a real killing machine,’ Tu Xiao’an thought. ’Just a head, and still so restless.’

When the Six-eyed Golden Lion saw Tu Xiao’an, its killing intent flared. A piercing aura of murder and hatred instantly enveloped him from all sides as it roared, ”You damned Snake! Sooner or later, I will make you wish you were dead!”

The lone, giant head hung in the sky above Wencheng Prison, its bleak, murderous aura impossible to conceal.

”Forget ’sooner or later.’ If you’ve got what it takes, make me wish I was dead right now.” A slight smile touched the corner of Tu Xiao’an’s lips. The Heaven Swaying Sword was not in his hand, but it floated sentiently at his side.

The Six-eyed Golden Lion gnashed its teeth. ’I couldn’t even beat this monstrous Snake before, let alone now when I’m just a head.’

Its blood-red eyes smoldered like the Abyssal Hell itself. An idea suddenly struck it, and it roared to the Demons below, ”My minions! This Snake who has achieved Transformation has betrayed our Demon Race and sided with the humans! He is despicable! Together, let’s kill this traitor!”

At these words, Tu Xiao’an frowned. ’This is bad,’ he thought. ’This thing is actually quite cunning, trying to stir up trouble and use these other Demons against me.’

”What? He’s a Demon too, but he’s helping humans fight us? That’s unforgivable! Kill him! Yes, kill him!”

Hearing this, the Demons below grew furious. Pairs of murderous eyes locked onto Tu Xiao’an, who hovered in the air.

”I am the newly-crowned Snake King of the Snake Race. Who dares to be so insolent?” Tu Xiao’an’s cold gaze swept over them, and the surrounding temperature instantly plummeted. An unparalleled aura befitting a Snake King radiated outwards, causing ripples to stir through the very air.

The Demons below were instantly dumbfounded, as if they had been struck by lightning. Their minds went completely blank.

’King of the Snake Clan? The Snake Race from the Yaoling Mountain Range, one of the five great families?’

’How could Lord Snake King possibly side with humans? There must be some kind of misunderstanding, right?’

Feeling Tu Xiao’an’s terrifying Snake King aura, the Demons instantly calmed down, not daring to make a single reckless move.

’The King of the Snake Clan is a major figure, no weaker than the Six-eyed Golden Lion. Besides, the Snake Race is incredibly powerful.’

”My minions, he’s just a Rank Three Snake Demon, not the King of the Snake Clan at all! Kill him, and I will lead you to slaughter every human in this city! Then, we will be the masters of Wencheng!” the Six-eyed Golden Lion hurriedly fanned the flames.
