“Dammit…”
Dugu Aotian, following Lu Changsheng in his cultivation, acted as a chivalrous hero whose heart patrolled the heavens. Seeing Unparalleled City fall into a living hell, he clenched his teeth in rage.
Among the Demon Cultivators, there were those like Daoist Earth Hound who cultivated in purity, but the Demon King who ruled Unparalleled City allowed his subordinates, the Great Demons, to commit atrocities, proving himself utterly ruthless and vicious.
Dugu Aotian looked in the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion and saw that the demonic aura there was extremely powerful and horrifying.
At the peak of the Earth Immortal cultivation, Dugu Aotian actually felt a shiver in his soul.
“The lord of Unparalleled City is a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal. The fact that Unparalleled City has fallen under the rule of the Demon Race suggests that the Demon King who seized it is at least on the same level.”
Dugu Aotian used Talismans to conceal his presence while searching the city for cultivators who knew the situation of Unparalleled City.
Dugu Aotian arrived at the mines on the north side of Unparalleled City, where he saw the Sect’s cultivators laboring hard under the supervision of the Great Demons, mining Immortal Stones and other rare materials for forging.
Even cultivators at the level of Earth Immortals were enslaved by the Great Demons.
A Heavenly Immortal realm Green Lion Demon transformed into a hundred-zhang form, wielding a whip of Ultimate Treasure grade, lashing at the slackening human cultivators.
With murderous intent, the whip of Ultimate Treasure grade could easily wipe out cultivators below the level of Earth Immortals.
The Ultimate Treasure grade whip could also strike the soul, causing one’s spirit to scatter and disperse.
The human cultivators in the mines, pressed by the Green Lion Demon’s authority, dared not slack and had to painstakingly use their True Qi to dig the mine, handing over all the Immortal Stones and other rare minerals they found to the Great Demons.
A Unity Realm cultivator used his True Qi to pulverize gigantic rocks, extracting the minerals within.
He secretly pocketed a piece of Immortal Stone into his sleeve, then put it into his Inner World.
He knew that if they continued to be enslaved by the Great Demons, by the time the mines were exhausted, they would sooner or later be eaten by them.
Hoarding Immortal Stones and quietly improving one’s cultivation, there would then be a chance to escape.
“Hmph, daring to hoard Immortal Stones, courting death.”
The Green Lion Demon let out a cold snort, and his whip lashed out, crackling through the air, harshly striking the Unity Realm human cultivator.
“Ah!”
The human cultivator had just enough time to let out a miserable scream before his body and spirit were utterly destroyed.
The Green Lion Demon’s control over his magical powers was exceedingly delicate; he didn’t completely destroy the Inner World of the cultivator, and the whip drew out various magical treasures and Immortal Stones from within the cultivator’s body before clutching them in his hand, “Those who privately hoard ores will meet this end.”
The rest of Unparalleled City’s cultivators trembled, only able to continue mining Immortal Stones for the Great Demons.
Dugu Aotian knew he was no match for the Green Lion Demon, so he lurked on the perimeter of the mines.
The Green Lion Demon was very pleased with the timorous expressions of Unparalleled City’s cultivators, and so, picked up a jug of liquor as large as a hill and drank heartily with other Great Demons.

When the Green Lion Demon became slightly relaxed, Dugu Aotian’s presence locked onto a Unity Realm Great Demon on the edge of the mines.
With Dugu Aotian’s current level of cultivation, he could easily capture a Unity Realm Great Demon without alerting the Green Lion Demon.
Just as Dugu Aotian was about to make his move, he suddenly discovered a woman with a veiled face behind a huge tree, who had also targeted the Unity Realm Great Demon.
There were other unenslaved cultivators in Unparalleled City?
Dugu Aotian, realizing that the person was not of the Demon Race and paying her no mind, promptly took action.
The Unity Realm Great Demon, too, was holding a jar and drinking deeply when suddenly, a terrifying surge of Demonic Qi enveloped the Demon.
Before the Great Demon had time to react, he was already restrained by Dugu Aotian.
Dugu Aotian captured the Great Demon and immediately used a Spatial Talisman, taking the Demon and leaving Unparalleled City.
The veiled woman in black was startled and also took out a Spatial Talisman, chasing after him.
Outside Unparalleled City, Dugu Aotian successfully escaped.
But soon, Dugu Aotian became aware that the woman from before had followed.
“Hey, you Demon Chief, hurry up and hand over this demon to me. I want to interrogate him for information.”
The woman was furious, as Dugu Aotian had quickly outpaced her and captured her prey.
“If I am a Demon Chief, then why should I hand it over to you?”
Mistaken for a Great Demon Head, Dugu Aotian felt uncomfortable and decided to make things difficult for her.
“You…”
The masked woman was furious, but she realized that Dugu Aotian’s aura was not weaker than hers, and in a real fight, she might not be his opponent.
Dugu Aotian’s live capture of a Great Demon would inevitably alarm the other Great Demons in the city, and possibly even the Demon King of Unparalleled City.
If the two of them fought, once the Great Demons inside the city chased after them, both of them would be captured alive by that group of Great Demons.
Fuming with embarrassment and anger, the masked woman stormed off.
Dugu Aotian successfully returned with the captured Great Demon.
“Who are you?! I am the squad leader of the Green Ox King’s patrol team. How dare you offend the Green Ox King; you are courting death! Release me quickly, or you’ll have no good end!”
The captured Great Demon became enraged and threatened Lu Changsheng and his disciple in return.
The Green Ox King, a notorious figure who slaughtered a Half-Step Great Luo Daluo Golden Immortal, the lord of Unparalleled City, and enslaved a million cultivators of Unparalleled City.
The reputation of the Green Ox King was so fearsome that only a few dared to challenge it.
“Green Ox King?”
Lu Changsheng hadn’t really heard of him and had no interest in interrogating a vicious Great Demon. He directly used a secret technique to read the memories of the Great Demon and destroy its Divine Sense.
“So that’s how it is.”
Lu Changsheng learned about the background of the Green Ox King.
The Green Ox King, a Half-Step Great Luo Daluo Golden Immortal, slightly more powerful than the City Lord of Unparalleled City, was King of Chaos’s nephew and possessed countless treasures. Coupled with the strength of the Green Ox King’s true form, he blew up the City Lord of Unparalleled City.
The elders and disciples of Unparalleled City became the slaves of the Green Ox King.
The Green Ox King not only enslaved Unparalleled City but also dominated over a thousand other cities.
Unparalleled City, called a city, was in fact a powerful sect.
Unparalleled City was located in the middle of a vein, producing precious Immortal Stones and the rare refinement material “Yan Stone”; thus, the Green Ox King led a group of demons to attack Unparalleled City, enslaving the cultivators to mine Immortal Stones and Yan Stones.
The Green Ox King planned to collect a batch of Yan Stones and Immortal Stones to offer as a wedding gift on the day of the big wedding between King of Chaos and Fairy Qingxia, twenty-four thousand years later, in an effort to please King of Chaos.
“If even such a domineering figure as the Green Ox King tries to please King of Chaos, it seems King of Chaos is no ordinary person, possessing not only terrifying strength but also a wide network. It won’t be easy for me to extricate Fairy Qingxia from this situation.”
Lu Changsheng, after reading the cause and effect of the events from the Sea of Consciousness of the Unity Realm’s Great Demon, had not expected that the Green Ox King occupying Unparalleled City would turn out to be King of Chaos’s nephew.
Since he had to face King of Chaos twenty-four thousand years later, Lu Changsheng was not afraid of retribution from King of Chaos even if he killed the Green Ox King.
However, since the Green Ox King was extremely powerful and had many Great Demons under his command, it was not easy for Lu Changsheng to kill him.
Lu Changsheng was also not confident about killing the Green Ox King.
Both the Green Ox King and the City Lord of Unparalleled City were Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortals, yet the Green Ox King could slaughter the lord, indicating that he had the strength to fight across ranks.
In these three thousand years, much of the cultivation that Lu Changsheng had returned to his disciples had been absorbed by the Nameless Ancient Cauldron and the Earth Scripture, so he had yet to reach the Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm.
“Master, perhaps we should avoid this place for the time being. Once our cultivation is higher, we can come back to rescue the people of Unparalleled City.”
Xiao Fan knew that his master was not yet a match for the Green Ox King and that now was not the time to confront him head-on.
“Hmm.”
Lu Changsheng also thought that the five master-disciple combinations could not handle the group of demons from Unparalleled City, and they still needed to improve their cultivation.
In the City Lord’s Mansion of Unparalleled City, the burly Green Ox King sat on his throne, holding a Bronze Liquor Cup, and halted his actions.
“My King, what’s wrong?”
The Great Demons under the Green Ox King noticed something unusual and all turned to look at him.
“There are two rats using Spatial Talismans to come and go in Unparalleled City, treating my barrier as if it were nothing.”
The eyes of the Green Ox King gleamed with a fierce light.
Dugu Aotian and the masked woman had not realized that their movements had already been detected by the Green Ox King.
The Green Ox King, one of the most formidable existences among those who were Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortals, was extremely difficult to deal with due to his profound skills and numerous magical treasures, along with his formidable Green Ox true form, which was enough to make cultivators of the same realm feel utterly hopeless.
“My King, how do you plan to deal with these people?”
“Just right, this Great King is bored. Let’s play with them for a bit,” the Green Ox King said.
