Qin Wentian and Juyu returned to her old devil palace while the devil general ranking battle still continued .
However, Qin Wentian didn't care about that . No matter who the first-ranked general was, it had nothing to do with him .
In the end, there were no change to the current rankings . The first-ranked devil general was still the first ranked, no one could shake his position . And so was the second and third-ranked devil generals .
For everything that happened next, it naturally had nothing to do with Juyu who had bowed out of the devil ranking battles . But although she has already passed her position to Qin Wentian, according the the rules of the sect, Qin Wentian now was only the last-ranked devil general, ranked #28 as he was newly ascended .
In the devil palace Qin Wentian was in, everything seemed to be very quiet . Juyu's injuries gradually recovered and at this moment, the two of them stood outside the palace, and cast their glances downwards .
"Your devil knights and the regiment of troops you control cannot be compared to Lu Xuejia . " Qin Wentian said bluntly .
"Now, they are all yours . " Juyu smiled . "However, because of the gossip out there as well as the actual betrayal by many of my subordinates, these people now have extremely low morale . Most probably, they hold me, the previous devil general, in contempt . "
"It's normal for you, the last-ranked general to be defeated by the third-ranked devil general, what qualifications do they have to hold you in contempt? If you want it, I can pass you back the position of devil general any time . " Qin Wentian replied .
"I've already offended many . If I become a devil general again, my fate would be very miserable . I think I would rather be your protector, it's much more suitable for me . I believe that this path will lead to a bright future . " Juyu was a devil general before, but now, she was actually willing to be a protector .
Although among generals, she was the last ranked, if it was among protectors, she definitely could fight against the protectors of those top-ranked generals .
"A devil general becoming a protector?" Qin Wentian laughed .
. . . . . . . .
Right now in the devil palace Lu Xuejia was in, she sat on the imposing devil throne as devil might radiated from her . One could faintly make out black devil swords floating around her .
At this moment, her eyes abruptly opened, gleaming with a dazzling light .
"Men . " Lu Xuejia's cold voice rang out . A knight instantly came over and bowed, "I pay my respects to devil general . "
"Are there any commotions in the residence of the #28 ranked devil general?" Lu Xuejia asked .
"Nothing, the devil general Qin Wentian and Juyu, haven't stepped out of the devil palace at all . "
"Continue to monitor and inform me if there are any movements . " Lu Xuejia coldly spoke . That person nodded and took his leave .
Lu Xuejia's beautiful eyes stared into the distance . Qin Wentian's figure actually appeared within those black eyes of hers . Before this, she had never once imagined that a protector would cause her to be so distracted . But Qin Wentian managed to do so .
She wanted to see what Qin Wentian's ending would be . She was truly extremely interested .
But ever since Juyu was injured and Qin Wentian became a devil general, there were no commotions from their devil palace . In fact, even the knights and troops under them had no reactions .
In the blink of an eye, a month passed and Juyu's injuries had fully recovered .
Today on the top of the devil stairway, Qin Wentian and Juyu stood there, staring at the people in the devil palace .
The people of this devil palace apparently became lazy after the ranking battle that happened . The auras and attitude of the guards here were way inferior compared to the guards at Lu Xuejia's palace back then . Qin Wentian could only smile as he shook his head .
"Do you really want to do it?" Juyu asked .
"Are you afraid?" Qin Wentian spoke .
"Since I'm already your protector, I will naturally follow the decision you make . However, just the two of us?" Juyu glanced at the guards as she questioned .
"Have you forgotten about those who betrayed you before? Just for a single sentence from the third-ranked devil general Zong Yan . Is it really useful to have a lot of people under you?" Qin Wentian laughed mockingly as he continued moving forward .
Juyu stared at Qin Wentian . Her dark eyes gleamed with a soul-stirring luster, filled with charm . The young man from the immortal realms in front of her, possessed a demeanor that made people want to follow him .
Her silhouette flashed as she followed after Qin Wentian . A radiant smile could be seen on Juyu's face . At this moment, the cold devilish intent from her had unconsciously vanished completely .
Being able to have that battle, she would have no regrets even if she died .
. . .
For the devil palaces in the four main directions, in the western area, the devil palace of the third-ranked general Zong Yan was located there . There were many guards guarding the entrance and there was also an extremely life-like statue of a darkflame dragon there .
Qin Wentian and Juyu stood before the entrance of the palace at this instant as they prepared to walk into it .
"Who are you two?" A guard spoke .
"The #28 ranked devil general Qin Wentian is here to challenge the #3 ranked devil general Zong Yan . " Behind Qin Wentian, Juyu stepped out as she spoke in a loud voice .
As the protector of Qin Wentian, there were somethings she naturally had to do . The her right now had already completely put down the arrogance of a devil general and was wholeheartedly serving as Qin Wentian's protector .
Hence, even though she was alone, her steps were steady as she opened a path up for Qin Wentian .
The two of them actually came here to the devil palace of the third-ranked general Zong Yan to challenge him . The challenger was actually the #28 ranked general, and if it wasn't for them seeing this personally, all the guards would have still thought that they have heard wrongly . There never has been such a ridiculous matter before .
But right now, the two of them were standing right before the entrance . They didn't even have any knights under them .
Although this was somewhat absurd, Juyu after all was once a devil general and the guards knew that they wouldn't be able to stop her . Hence, nobody obstructed her way, allowing her and Qin Wentian to walk through them .
The two guards at the entrance coldly laughed . They knew that since these two dared to challenge the third-ranked general, it meant that the moment they entered here, they would never be able to walk out again .
"The last-ranked general and his protector are here for a challenge . " As they entered, a voice rang out from behind them, echoing through the palace, causing all the experts within to hear it .
Within Zong Yan's palace, several figures sped over, standing in different locations in the air, staring at Qin Wentian and Juyu .
However, they weren't in a rush to act . They quietly stared at the two advancing figures while at this moment, the third-ranked devil general Zong Yan slowly flew over, staring down at them .
"Are both of you in such a hurry to die?" Zong Yan's black eyes were as dark as the abyss . He was truly impressed with the courage of Qin Wentian and Juyu, they actually dared to enter his devil palace .
"To die? Try it before you talk . " Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at Zong Yan .
"Even if you want to challenge me, you have to first see if you are qualified or not . " Zong Yan turned his glance in a direction as he continued, "You guys were once Juyu's subordinates . This is now a chance for you all to acquire merit . "
Those experts he was talking to were naturally Juyu's old subordinates and their expressions all changed when they heard Zong Yan's words . Betraying Juyu was merely because they wanted a better path to the future . However, because they weren't people who had followed Zong Yan from the start, they did indeed need opportunities to accumulate merits . But if they were to fight against the ex devil general Juyu, they weren't very confident of success .
Despite so, right now, there was no other choice left .
With a flash, all of them flew towards Juyu .
"I might as well take the chance to clean out the trash who betrayed me . Leave those people to me . " Juyu spoke .
"Fine, you don't need to care about the others . " Qin Wentian spoke . After that, Juyu sped towards her past subordinates .
As for Qin Wentian, he soared up into the air and directly headed towards the place the third-ranked general Zong Yan was at .
"RUMBLE!" Powerful devilish auras erupted forth as the two experts standing on the left and right of Zong Yan rushed Qin Wentian . The devil spears in their hands stabbed out at the same moment, manifesting terrifying devil dragons .
Qin Wentian's immortal-foundation shimmered with light . This entire space was filled with his law energy, which permeated the atmosphere .
"Didn't your devil general tell you guys that before absolute strength, numbers are meaningless?" A cold voice rang out from Qin Wentian's mouth . He stabbed forth with his finger, as though pointing towards the void . But as that finger stabbed out, terrifying golden rocs manifested in the air, ripping everything apart .
"Puchi, puchi…"
In the air, a shower of blood fell . Screams of misery rang out and in a mere instant, tens of experts were killed .
"A body of law . As expected, you have also grasped a hint of immortal-king might . " The third-ranked general stared at Qin Wentian . His gaze was still as calm as ever, as though the deaths of these subordinates were nothing to him .
Even more experts rushed Qin Wentian . When he saw the emotionless gaze of Zong Yan, Qin Wentian could only sigh silently .
"BOOM!" An even stronger might gushed forth from him . His body expanded in form, to over tens of meters tall .
"Since you all want to die so badly, I will grant you your wish . " Qin Wentian roared in a thunderous voice . His palms exploded outwards, causing streams of chaotic might to pervade the area, destroying all the experts who rushed him . This was an extremely shocking sight .
"Those who block me will all die . " Qin Wentian howled as he continued advancing . Stabbing out with his fingers, ancient characters transformed into sharp swords, opening up a bloody pathway for him .
He continued on step by step, causing a blood bath in the devil palace of the third-ranked general Zong Yan, a complete massacre .
Qin Wentian was like a god of killing, nobody could block him . When the strongest subordinates of Zong Yan appeared before him, Qin Wentian coldly spoke, "After this battle, you guys will be my direct subordinates . I don't wish to slaughter this entire devil palace, it would be useless if there's no one to serve me . Just scram for now . "
As he spoke, he continued speeding forward . The heavens and earth rumbled as different-colored greater demons surrounded him, exuding a might that could shake the skies, causing the subordinates he spoke to to tremble .
"Zong Yan, die!"
Qin Wentian blasted out with an attack . As the sound of his voice faded, an all-devouring vortex shot over with might enough to collapse the heavens .
At this instant, the third-ranked devil general's expression turned ashen . He felt an unblockable force boring down on him .
Not long ago, Zong Yan thought that Qin Wentian came here to die . But when this force bore down on him, he actually felt a fear from the depths of his soul .
With a roar of anger, Zong Yan erupted forth in his strongest state, yet that powerful vortex engulfed everything and a few short moments later, everyone saw that their powerful third-ranked general, Zong Yan, was completely swallowed whole by Qin Wentian's terrifying attack . It seemed that nothing Zong Yan did was of any use at all .
"RUMBLE~" The stairway exploded as the earth was flattened . The destructive might was still prevalent in the atmosphere, causing clouds of dust to fly up the sky . Finally when everything became clear again, the third-ranked devil general Zong Yan had already disappeared forever!
