Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1553: Chapter 1553: Immortal Sect Undercover (22)

But the feeling he got couldn’t be wrong. She should be a demon.

The sensing between the Demon Clan is very subtle. Even if one can’t feel the monster qi, it can’t be hidden.

”Are you also a demon?”

Chuzheng had more or less that special sensing ability too.

But he didn’t have any monster qi on him either...

Have the Demon Clan become this powerful now?

Black-Robed Man... no, Black-Robed Demon, with a gloomy face, didn’t deny it: ”Since you are of the Demon Clan, why do you ruin my plans?”

Thinking about his business being interrupted, not knowing what the situation outside was, the rage in Black-Robed Demon’s heart surged.

How did she even find this place!!

Chuzheng said solemnly, ”I am acting on behalf of the heavens to execute justice, being a good... demon.” Almost made me believe it! Giving myself a good brainwash does work!

Trying hard to be a good person every day!!

Black-Robed Demon spat out another mouthful of blood.

Probably angered by Chuzheng’s words ’being a good demon.’

You’re a demon, what are you doing being a good demon?

”Let me go!” After spitting blood, Black-Robed Demon shouted at Chuzheng: ”I am currently working for the grand cause of the Demon Clan, don’t ruin it!”

Chuzheng looked indifferent: ”Get up yourself, I’m not holding you down.”

Black-Robed Demon: ”...”

If I could get up, it would be fine!

He didn’t know what was going on, but his body felt like it was pressed by a huge stone weighing a thousand pounds.

If he hadn’t been maintaining the formation earlier, how could he have been caught by this little girl?

Chuzheng pushed away the demon spirits who gathered around, greedy: ”What grand cause do you have? Tell me.”

Black-Robed Demon gritted his teeth and calmed down: ”Let me go first.”

”You say it first.” Do you think I’m an idiot?

”Let me go first.” Black-Robed Demon tried to negotiate with Chuzheng.

Bang——

The sword glowing with cold light pierced the ground beside Black-Robed Demon, the blade sinking into the ground.

”If you don’t speak, I will kill you.”

The girl’s cold voice dropped, without a trace of emotion.

Black-Robed Demon was taken aback by Chuzheng’s rude behavior, and after a while, squeezed out a few words: ”You are a demon...”

”What’s wrong with being a demon? Does being a demon mean I have to help you unconditionally? Why?”

Black-Robed Demon: ”...”

That’s what the Demon Clan should be like!!

”Don’t kill him...” The demon spirits beside pleaded.

Black-Robed Demon struggled for a while, and after realizing that struggling only made it worse, he was so angry he coughed up a few more mouthfuls of blood.

Where did this Xiao Yao come from!!

”Aren’t you going to talk?”

Chuzheng was getting impatient.

Black-Robed Demon was silent for a moment, seemingly compromising: ”What do you want to know?”

”What are you doing here?”

Black-Robed Demon raised his head and sneered, ”Releasing demon spirits.”

”Can you be quicker?” The demon spirit urged: ”I’m hungry.”

Black-Robed Demon: ”...”

Black-Robed Demon belatedly realized, this demon spirit wanted to eat him.

Why aren’t you eating humans, and staring at him?

”If you don’t shut up, I won’t even leave you a strand of hair.”

Black-Robed Demon’s pupils shrank, and his gaze at Chuzheng changed.

Does she eat demons too?

It’s normal for any race to have conflicts.

But killing is one thing, eating is...

Just like humans don’t eat other humans.

”You want to release demon spirits?”

”Of course, once these demon spirits are out, with them, it will be easy for the Demon Clan to attack the Human Race!” Black-Robed Demon spoke with a hint of ferociousness: ”As a member of the Demon Clan, you should understand, this is our best chance.”

In recent years, the Demon Clan and Human Race have been relatively peaceful, with only minor skirmishes.

To call it a war, it would have to go back a decade.

Chuzheng: ”If you want to release demon spirits, just release them. Why go through so much trouble?”

Black-Robed Demon snorted coldly: ”Do you think that seal is easy to break?”

”Aren’t you powerful?” Chuzheng said, ”You’ve even dealt with their leader and slaughtered their entire family.”

”And why did the Demon Clan send you alone? Didn’t they send some underlings to help you?”

Black-Robed Demon: ”...”

Black-Robed Demon was thinking of how to respond when suddenly a flash of cold light appeared before his eyes.

The blade fell on the ground, sparking as it scraped.

The girl’s cold and indifferent voice sounded softly: ”I’ll ask you one last time, what do you want to do?”

”... I already told you!”

”Not saying?”

Black-Robed Demon gritted his teeth: ”That’s all I can say!”

Alright then.

Chuzheng withdrew her sword, and Black-Robed Demon watched Chuzheng stand up, thinking she believed him.

Who knew that what followed would be the beginning of his nightmare.

-

Black-Robed Demon endured a harsh beating from Chuzheng, left lying on the ground, wishing he was dead.

Every limb and bone screamed with ’pain’, and the way Black-Robed Demon looked at Chuzheng was as if she were a devil.

”It doesn’t really matter whether you talk or not.” Chuzheng seemed to just remember this: ”Anyway, if I kill you, it’s all over.”

Black-Robed Demon’s eyes widened.

He didn’t doubt what Chuzheng said.

She really would kill him.

”You think... you think if I die, this matter will be over?” Black-Robed Demon suddenly burst into laughter: ”Kill me! Kill me!! Come on!!”

Chuzheng narrowed her eyes.

Chuzheng kicked Black-Robed Demon, flipping him over, and pressed down on his chest.

”Do you so desperately want to die?”

”Kill me!!” Black-Robed Demon shouted at her.

Chuzheng tapped his shoulder with her sword: ”I won’t.”

”...”

Black-Robed Demon watched as Chuzheng called the demon spirits over, his sinister smile vanishing.

”What do you want to do?”

Chuzheng walked to the side: ”I don’t want to do anything. You should ask, what does it want to do.”

”Hehehehe...” The demon spirit chuckled at Black-Robed Demon.

Black-Robed Demon had never seen demon spirits attack the Demon Clan, but he had seen them attack humans.

Demon spirits are formed from deceased demons, carrying even greater grudges.

Compared to demons, demon spirits are more ruthless.

As a demon, dying still leaves a chance to become a demon spirit, but if eaten by a demon spirit... then there’s nothing left.

”I am part of the Demon Clan, we are kindred!” Black-Robed Demon attempted to emphasize their kinship: ”We’re on the same side.”

”Hehehe, I eat anything.” The demon spirit didn’t mind at all.

”...”

”Ah——”

-

Black-Robed Demon’s fingertips scraped against the ground, facing Chuzheng: ”I’ll tell... I’ll tell, just let it leave!!”

Chuzheng went over and pushed the demon spirits away.

”Speak.”

Black-Robed Demon finally caught his breath: ”I was indeed here to break the seal, but...”

Black-Robed Demon explained that the Demon Clan had been in chaos for a long time, without a leader.

Everyone wants to ascend to power, but since their strengths were similar, no one could convince the others.

So, there hasn’t been a convincing Demon King.

Black-Robed Demon was one of those who wanted to ascend to power, knowing that on the human side, countless demon spirits from hundreds of years ago were being suppressed.

He wanted to release those demon spirits and then subjugate them for his own use.

This would increase his influence and power within the Demon Clan, finally succeeding in sitting upon the Demon King’s throne.

He didn’t want to go through all this trouble, he just wanted to release the demon spirits.

The problem was that the seal wasn’t easy to break...
