Chapter 395: Arrival at the Demon King Palace!
Following Borkan, they entered Bukenzi City. This city was much larger than Karoda City, which served as a border city, and there weren't many Guards visible. Commerce was more developed; Demon Clan shops on both sides were open, with the Demon Clan members shouting.
If not for their appearance, this place wouldn't be much different from a Human city.
Borkan glanced at Li Xiang, "Is there something you need to see the Demon King about?"
Pusiruide had now returned to Li Xiang's body.
Li Xiang hummed, "Have you heard the news of the Undead's resurgence?"
The relationship between the Demon Clan and the Undead had always been poor. It could be said that the World was a struggle between these three major races.
Besides the Undead, both the Demon Clan and the Human Clan had once dominated this World.
This was also why the Demon Clan could still have their own living area in this World, even after being defeated by the Human Clan in the last war of contention.
Their foundation was extremely deep...
"What threat can those skeletons pose? Only your Human Clan would be afraid of them."
Borkan said disdainfully, then added, "I heard that a General among the Undead was killed... Which Title Holder from your Human Clan did it?"
Li Xiang shook his head, "It wasn't a Title Holder who killed him."
Borkan was stunned for a moment, "Kid... are you trying to fool me? A non-Title Holder is no match for a Title Holder... The difference in strength between the two is like heaven and earth!"
Pusiruide's voice appeared, "I helped this kid kill Latu Deng. Do you still have doubts?"
Borkan looked at Li Xiang in shock, "You... You actually killed him?!"
He knew Pusiruide's strength was unfathomable, but Pusiruide used the word 'helped', not that he did it himself.
This meant Li Xiang was still the main participant in the battle.
A non-Title Holder is simply insignificant in front of a Title Holder. Even with Pusiruide's help, unless Pusiruide kept protecting him and controlled Latu Deng, making that person constantly attack, he wouldn't be able to kill him...
Bonecrusher... that Title Holder's attack had terrifying defense-breaking effects. Even as a fellow Title Holder, he didn't want to face such a strong enemy.
Withdrawing his gaze, Borkan said, "What do you mean by mentioning the Undead?"
"Wu Shuang City of my Dragon Flame Empire is currently being besieged by the Undead Army. I want the Demon King to order Chen Sisi to help build a teleportation array."
After hearing Li Xiang's words, Borkan nodded slightly, "Your idea is very bold, actually asking my Demon Clan to help your Human Clan.
However... I heard you have a good personal relationship with Chen Sisi. She should agree to you...
But, her current situation doesn't allow her to help you."
Li Xiang quickly pressed, "Why was Chen Sisi imprisoned in the Demon Cave?"
Borkan looked at Li Xiang strangely, "You actually know she was imprisoned in the Demon Cave... As for why, I'm not sure either. It seems to be because of Humans... maybe someone from your Human Clan. I don't know the specifics, I don't care about these things."
Soon, Borkan brought Li Xiang to the teleportation array in Bukenzi City, "After I activate the teleportation array, you will be teleported to Demon King City. I won't go with you. Don't be too ostentatious when you get there..."
Although his words were directed at Li Xiang, they were meant for Pusiruide to hear.
In his opinion, Li Xiang couldn't cause any trouble at all; only the Arrogant Demon could stir up Demon King City.
"Thank you."
Borkan activated the teleportation magic array, and Li Xiang disappeared.
Looking at the empty teleportation magic array, Borkan stared blankly.
The last time he saw the Arrogant Demon was hundreds of years ago. Without the Arrogant Demon, he wouldn't be who he is today...
He heard he was sealed in the Hundred Demon Tower of the Human Dafen Empire.
He actually got out...
Was he not sealed... or was he unsealed?
As a Demon Clan member from that era, Borkan knew very well that once these Demons appeared, it meant the World would be restless.
When the World was peaceful, Demons would not appear.
"The Undead... have also resurfaced... Could it be... a new conflict is about to begin?"
"The Demon King position... Can I sit on it?"
"Perhaps... I still need to rely on Pusiruide's power... What else can I trade with him..."
Borkan fell into deep thought.
...
Demon King City.
The moment Li Xiang appeared in the teleportation array, the Demon Clan member responsible for guarding the teleportation array was stunned.
After looking at Li Xiang carefully again and confirming he was a Human Clan member, he prepared to shout loudly.
Li Xiang immediately covered his mouth, "Don't speak, or I'll kill you!"
Hearing he would be killed, this Demon Clan member became obedient.
Li Xiang released his hand, "Now, I ask, you answer. Did you hear?"
The Demon Clan Guard nodded repeatedly.
"Where is the Demon King now?"
The Guard was bewildered and shook his head.
Li Xiang took out his weapon, and the Guard trembled with fear, "I really don't know... I'm just a small teleportation array Guard. How would I know the Demon King's schedule..."
Li Xiang slapped his forehead. His question was flawed. "You should know the Demon King's usual residence, right?"
The Guard nodded repeatedly, "After going out from here, if you go south, you can see the tallest spire. That's the Demon Tower. The Demon King Palace in front of the Demon Tower is the Demon King's usual residence."
"Okay, next question. Will you faint on your own or be knocked unconscious by me?"
The Demon Clan Guard shivered with fear, picked up a brick from the side, hit himself on the head with it, and fell down.
Li Xiang checked and found he was sleeping soundly and wouldn't wake up anytime soon.
"Indeed, it has to be a young person. They fall asleep the moment they lie down."
Li Xiang immediately left the teleportation area. Upon exiting, he indeed saw a spire.
Li Xiang immediately hurried towards it.
Along the way, he deliberately avoided the Demon Clan.
This was Demon King City, there were many strong individuals. Li Xiang needed to be extra careful to hide his figure.
However, while his figure was easy to hide, his aura was not.
After only traveling half the distance, Li Xiang was discovered.
"It's a Human Clan member! Kill him!"
A burly Demon Clan member holding a giant axe rushed towards Li Xiang.
Li Xiang immediately came out of his hiding place, no longer concealing himself, and rushed towards the spire.
"Not good! He's going to assassinate the Demon King! Quickly stop him!"
After the giant axe Demon Clan member finished speaking, the rest of the Demon Clan members stopped in their tracks, "Assassinate the Demon King? Then we don't need to go..."
Li Xiang glanced behind him and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw they hadn't chased him.
It was much smoother than expected.
...
Soon, Li Xiang arrived at the Demon King Palace.
In front of the gate, an old female Demon Clan member wearing a priest's robe stood there.
The moment he saw her, a sense of unfathomable depth appeared.
This female Demon Clan member was very strong!!!
"Human Clan kid... Go back. If you go back now, you can still keep your life."
Li Xiang looked at her, his gaze sweeping past her towards the Demon King Palace gate behind, and said in the loudest voice possible, "Qu Ming, City Lord of Zhushen City of the Dragon Flame Empire, requests an audience with the Demon King!"
"Qu Ming, City Lord of Zhushen City of the Dragon Flame Empire... requests an audience with the Demon King!"
The old Demon Clan Priest looked at Li Xiang, "The Demon King won't see you. Go back..."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Demon King Palace gate opened.
The old Demon Clan Priest's arm trembled slightly, "Come with me."
"Thank you, Priest!"
"You know who I am?"
"Among the Demon Clan, there is only one Priest of this age, and that is the High Priest of the Demon Clan. I often hear Chen Sisi talk about you."
"Chen Sisi..." The old wrist of the Demon Clan High Priest trembled, "You shouldn't have come..."
"High Priest, please tell me what happened!"
The Demon Clan High Priest was silent for a moment, "If the Demon King spares your life, I will tell you."
"Thank you, Priest!"
