“Daughter, that wretched boy didn’t bully you, did he?”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable saw that his daughter’s complexion was good and didn’t look at all like someone who had been bullied. Perhaps it was his own misjudgment, maybe Lu Changsheng had not really bullied Dantai Meng.
Dantai Meng shook her head: “Your daughter hasn’t suffered much grievance.”
“Good, he knows his place. Otherwise, I would have surely killed him.”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable was quite satisfied with the negotiation. At least his daughter came back safe and sound.
“Now that this matter is settled, then next time, Hallucinatory Dark, we shall compete again.”
The Immortal Dragon Emperor, having redeemed his son and seeing that Lu Changsheng also benefited, decided it was time to leave.
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable was not an existence to be trifled with; staying on could lead to unnecessary complications.
“Next time we meet, I shall not be so courteous.”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable’s expression was cold; this time, he had been thoroughly outsmarted by the junior, Lu Changsheng, which was somewhat irritating.
Just as both parties were preparing to leave, suddenly, from the depths of the Nine Nether Abyss, a sound like that of ancient times emerged, as if some gigantic being was approaching.
“Hallucinatory Dark, did you set me up?”
The face of the Immortal Dragon Emperor changed.
This ancient and terrible breath even made the Immortal Dragon Emperor’s heart pound.
“It’s clearly you who wanted to trick me.”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable also turned hostile, thinking that the Immortal Dragon Emperor had laid a trap.
“They must want to kill us all!”
“Demon Venerable, let’s fight them with all we’ve got!”
“Despicable people of the Immortal Realm!”
The subordinates of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable were filled with righteous anger, also believing that the Immortal Dragon Emperor had schemed against them.
Each side drew their Magical Treasures, tension brimming, ready to erupt in a major battle at any moment.
“Hold on a moment.”
Lu Changsheng, seeing that both sides were about to clash, but he felt there was a considerable misunderstanding?
This exchange was beneficial to both sides; there was no need for either side to lay a trap specifically to doom the other.
“What are you trying to do now, you brat?”
The subordinates of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable had grievances against Lu Changsheng.
After all, not long ago, Lu Changsheng had swindled their master, the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, of over six thousand types of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from the Demon Realm, so having a good impression of Lu Changsheng would be strange.
“Please, for my sake, let’s not fight for the moment.”
“What face do you have?”
The Great Demons clamored.
What face did Lu Changsheng, a junior, have?
Great Experts such as the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable and the Immortal Dragon Emperor had not yet spoken, yet Lu Changsheng wanted them to give him face?
“I think this is just a blind cat running into a dead mouse; we should all back off.”
Before having the strength to confront the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, Lu Changsheng did not want to engage directly, and the terrible being within the deep recesses of the Nine Nether Abyss seemed to be drawing near.
According to Lu Changsheng’s cautious style, it was naturally best to beat a strategic retreat.
“The Nine Nether represents a rift in space-time, linking the Demon Realm and the Netherworld, and indeed, the Great Void giant beasts known to traverse these rifts may appear. Any one of these Great Void giant beasts is a terrifying entity, best not to provoke. Let us leave.”
The Immortal Dragon Emperor also found the emergence of a being from the depths of the Nine Nether Abyss troublesome and decided to dodge its sharp edge.
“Great Void giant beast?”
The Princess had heard of such a frightening existence.
It was said that within the Deep Void, dangers were numerous, and one of these dangers stemmed from the Great Void giant beasts.
These beings were powerful creatures that roamed the Deep Void, consuming primordial energies, and generally did not enter the Three Realms.
But because the Nine Nether represented a rift in space-time, it was possible for the Great Void giant beasts to appear here.
Lu Changsheng had also read about the Great Void giant beasts.
Born at the Beginning of Chaos, these beasts were few in number, but each one was extremely powerful. Among them. some were immortals, and a few could even devour smaller stars.
Lu Qinglian said to Lu Changsheng, “Master, Huo Wen once mentioned that their ancestor, the Candle Dragon of the Dragon Clan, also liked to traverse through space and time.”
“The ordinary members of the Dragon Clan are not considered Great Void giant beasts, but given the strength of the Candle Dragon ancestor, coupled with its love for roaming the Three Realms and even the Void, it is indeed a Great Void giant beast.”
Lu Changsheng’s Divine Sense scanned the Nine Nether Abyss. He had only seen illustrations of Great Void giant beasts in old texts, but now he was witnessing one with his own eyes.
It was a grey-white monstrous fish, thousands of miles long, its huge body like a moving world, blocking the sky. As it passed through the space-time rift of the Nine Nether Abyss, it actually entered the Netherworld.
“What a terrifying presence…”
“Its body is like a small world in itself.”
The Demon Chiefs, previously noisy, were suddenly silent as a grave.
This Great Void giant beast’s overwhelming presence was terrifying. Some of the strong individuals from the Demon Race couldn’t even compare their true demon forms to the slightest fraction of this Great Void giant beast.
Apart from Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, no other demons present could contend with this Great Void giant beast.
“Do not make any move; it seems to be just passing by and does not wish to attack the Three Realms.”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable instructed his subordinates to not act rashly.
There was no need to engage with such an entity if the Great Void giant beast had no intention to attack.
Even if the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable himself took action, there was no assurance of victory.
What’s more, fighting to the death against the Great Void giant beast offered no benefit to the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable.
The troops of both the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable and the Immortal Dragon Emperor stood still without causing any stir, patiently waiting for the Great Void giant beast to pass.
