The Brilliant Fighting Master - Chapter 94

Chapter 94: Demon Lord

From the perspective of a doctor, the smell of death was a sign of oncoming death .

Those who emitted smell of death were mostly poisoned or severely sick, but Wu Fan and his three companions looked very healthy and vigorous . They didn't look like people who could emit that smell .

Added to the suspicious state of their spiritual weapon, Jiang Chen had to be more careful .

Deagle couldn't wait any longer when he saw others jumping down one by one . After confirming that Wen Xin wouldn't go with him, he jumped down with his sister and Wu Fan .

When there was only a group of people in double-digits left, Jiang Chen set out with Meng Hao and Wen Xin .

As Wu Fan had said, there wasn't much room below . The three of them arched their backs to squeeze through a crack .

Fortunately, soon, after squeezing through another crack, the space became broad enough for them could walk upright .

They kept walking on and saw a stone ladder in front of them .

"Is that a relic?! So it's true . The collapse resulted in the connection between the passage of the relic and the pit," Meng Hao said joyfully .

At the end of the ladder there was a door that had been pushed open .

Wen Xin and Meng Hao took a giant stride to the front, almost rushing into the room .

"Wait…"

Jiang Chen had been about to investigate the surroundings a bit with his holy awareness, but since those two were so eager, he had to follow them .

After entering the door, they saw a spacious hall, in the middle of which there was a pavilion with a vaulted roof .

Soon, the three of them found something unusual .

Those who had entered before them were lying around the pavilion, where scarlet radiance was being emitted, shuttling back and forth among the people like an iron chain .

At a closer look, they found those people were too weak to defend themselves from any attack .

People shrouded in the scarlet radiance were sucked into the air . Then their bodies shriveled at a rapid speed . Everything under their skin merged into the scarlet radiance .

Wu Fan and his three companions who had led the way, stood beside the pavilion and looked at those people coldly .

"Run!"

A man ran towards Jiang Chen, but he ran slower and slower until he finally fell onto the ground .

"This is bad!" Jiang Chen dragged Wen Xin and Meng Hao towards the door, trying to leave through it . But as soon as they turned around, they were surprised to see that the door had closed automatically .

The scarlet radiance extended itself towards the three of them, although they were still far from the pavilion .

The three didn't know how to resist such a magical attack . As soon as the scarlet radiance shrouded them, they turned powerless like all the others and were dragged towards the pavilion .

They were seized with a terror when they found they had lost the control of their bodies, although they were of sound mind .

"Wu Fan, how dare you cheat me! I'll kill your whole family!"

When they got closer they heard Deagle swearing .

Wu Fan said with a blank expression, "It's your honor to be sacrificed to the Demon Lord!"

Demon Lord?

Jiang Chen was shocked . Five hundred years ago, human beings made a clean sweep in the war between them and demons . Demons were driven to the Alien Battlefield, which was located outside the Planes World, due to their failure .

By then, beasts that hadn't amounted to anything yet, such as beasts of prey, monsters, and fierce beasts, were not the only threats to human beings .

Like humans, demons were born with spiritual intelligence . Along with the extraordinary power they were born with, they were already very strong without any practicing . They used to be human beings' natural enemies .

Demon Lords were as powerful as humans in the Mental Wander State . Since they were highly effective in fighting, when they were facing humans in the Mental Wander State, they usually could fight against more people in an effective manner .

By then, Jiang Chen could see a demon lord sitting on the stone table inside the pavilion .

With a human-like body and horns on his head, his skin was as dark as black iron, and his body surface was tattooed with scarlet demon lines .

The terrifying scarlet radiance definitely came from him .

Jiang Chen could draw a conclusion at that moment . There had been a demon lord trapped underground .

Eager to leave this place, he had caused a landslide to break through the passage that connected it to the outside world .

Wu Fan and the other seven had entered here recklessly . Four of them had been killed by him and the other four were brought under his control .

The demon lord had made them lie to the others so that more people would enter . He would regain his power little by little by sucking their energies .

As for the treasure, no matter whether it existed or not, those of the four groups were already dead or too weak to get it .

"Fortunately, this demon lord is severely injured . He has recovered only thirty percent of his power," Jiang Chen thought to himself . He had a slim chance to survive in that case .

"Mr . Demon Lord, do you still need any subordinates? I can do it . I'm famous . I can bring you more people . Please don't kill me!" Gao Chenyi was shouting in a panicked manner . A coward had ranked eighth on the Prince List .

In fact, this had become clear enough back when he had faced leader bloody bats .

However, at such a desperate moment, others were not interested in despising him at all . Instead, the same idea occurred to them .

The demon lord opened his eyes . His bloody eyes were full of sarcasm .

"How many years have passed… But you human beings are still the same . You want to be my subordinate, don't you? Well, kneel down and bow to me!"

Hardly had his voice faded away when Gao Chenyi felt his power recover fully . Delighted with his recovery, he crawled to the pavilion and bowed to the demon lord .

"Ha!" The demon lord burst into laughter and said, "My recovery is being dragged down by these people, since they are reluctant to give up fighting . What do you say?"

"Give up! Stop fighting back!" Gao Chenyi dashed towards his group and shouted at his men .

"Apprentice Brother Gao . " His men were struck dumb . They looked at him as if he were a stranger who they'd never known .

"Do you want to kill me?" Gao Chenyi's face was distorted . He kicked one of the guys in front of him .

Jiang Chen shook his head at this scene . He thought to himself, "As the books say, demons hunt people, not only feeding on them, but also making fun of them . "

Hopefully the other things said in those books are just as true .

Jiang Chen took a deep breath and prepared silently .

All of a sudden, Gao Chenyi appeared next to Jiang Chen . He said proudly, "Mr . Demon Lord, this guy is detestable, but his genuine yuan is very pure, the best choice for you . "

"Gao Chenyi, you don't deserve any place on the Prince List!" Wen Xin flew into a rage .

"Hehe, as long as I can stay alive!" Gao Chenyi smiled . He grabbed Wen Xin's hair and ran his fingers across her face, then further down .

"Stop . " Jiang Chen interfered when Gao Chenyi was so close to reaching into Wen Xin's clothes . "Gao Chenyi, get real! Why do you think only four of these guys are still alive and the other four are dead? Because he only has four demon seals . He has no way to control you like how he's controlling Wu Fan . Do you think he will really let you go?"

Gao Chenyi was dumbfounded . So were the others .

The demon lord looked interested . He brought Jiang Chen closer to him .

"Do you know a lot about demons?" he asked .

"Yes . You are nothing more than bloodthirsty freaks," Jiang Chen said .

"The beasts see you human beings in the same way . " The demon lord didn't become angry, but mocked him .

In a second, the scarlet radiance was pulled together and moved towards Jiang Chen .

The demon lord stuck his purple tongue out and said excitedly, "People like you are my favorite food . "

"I'm excited, too," Jiang Chen said .

"Oh?" The demon lord was intrigued by him . He stopped the radiance for the moment, expecting more details .

"I'm disappointed to know the Demon War ended before I was born, since I really wanted to kill a demon with my own hands . It's a pity that in this era, the Alien Battlefield is the only place where I can find you demons . "

Jiang Chen stopped and smiled in a mysterious manner . He continued, "I never expected that I would get such a chance!"
