Chapter 86: The Evil Deeds of the Emerald Scaled Python

  Yang Le obtained the six-winged golden silkworm's larvae and a piece of purple extreme yang stone, feeling exhilarated. Treasure hunting was also a kind of stimulation, with surprise after surprise, making Yang Le almost forget himself, indulging in joy without thinking of returning to Shu.

  On this day, when he once again harvested a top-grade spiritual root, his keen sense of hearing suddenly picked up the sound of wailing cries from a thousand miles away, the voice so mournful that it brought tears to one's eyes.

  One step, arrived at a thousand miles away in the upper air, and with a blink of an eye, the scene below was clear at a glance.

  "My child, my child!!" Scores of frail women wailed in anguish as they helplessly watched dozens of three to eight year old boys and girls being taken away by a group of stern and well-equipped soldiers under the strong pull of several men.

  The child who was taken away saw the crying mother and the sad atmosphere, and also burst into loud wailing. The demon soldiers beside them stopped, picked them up in one swoop, and left with a flourish under the command of a demon king.

  Those men looked sorrowful, but they firmly held their beloved wives, even embracing them. Behind them stood countless men and women, young and old, also looking despondent. The elderly with long white beards kept shaking their heads and sighing, "What a calamity! What a calamity!"

  Although these men and women, young and old, were in human form, the pair of rabbit ears on their heads and the tails that stood up exposed their identity as demons.

  This is a small valley surrounded by three-ring mountains, with hundreds of miles around it. There are seven or eight thousand rough stone houses built from large and small rocks. This is the residence of a small group of Jade Rabbit demons. In the surrounding tens of millions of miles, there is a demon lord who is a green-scaled python, under whose jurisdiction there are fifty million large and small tribes and clans. This small Jade Rabbit demon tribe is within its jurisdiction, and there are also thousands of dependent forces attached to it.

  As soon as this ruler of the surrounding billion miles, Huangwang Shen Zun, is mentioned, all major and minor tribes and forces are fearful and trembling with fear.

  This King of the Abyss is not only cruel and greedy, but also constantly demands tribute from various ethnic groups. If he is not satisfied, he will double his demands next time, and if he acts, he will kill ruthlessly. Moreover, what is most cruel is that he likes to swallow children alive, especially babies.

  As the entity is a Bi Lin python, it originally liked to swallow living spirits. After becoming a demon lord, it was even more lawless. In its ruling territory, every ten years, all large and small tribes and forces had to offer a special tribute once. This tribute was the young little demons from each of the major tribes.

  The King of the Void especially likes to devour human-shaped little monsters, so the Jade Rabbit tribe, the Fox tribe and other humanoid tribes are even more miserable. These humanoid tribes can transform into human form after one or two years of birth, leaving only some special tribal characteristics, known as the Lingchang class of monster tribes.

  These ethnic groups have the most offerings every ten years, even if their fertility is much stronger than that of ordinary ethnic groups. However, after tossing for tens of thousands of years, the number of ethnic groups has not increased but decreased, from the original millions of people to a small tribe of tens of thousands of people.

  Their humanoid tribe cultivates at a speed that is much faster than many other tribes, and they have also accumulated many powerful demon emperors and demon saints in secret. However, they do not dare to make trouble easily, otherwise it will bring the disaster of extinction to the entire tribe! They are waiting for opportunities, waiting for success in advancing to Demon Venerable, challenging the position of King Xuanwu's Demon Venerable.

  All of this was learned by Yang Le in the Elder's Hall of the Jade Rabbit tribe in this mountain valley from the elders of the Jade Rabbit tribe.

  Why did the Jade Rabbit clan dare to let down their guard against Yang Le, this strange and powerful being, and confess to him?

  Yang Le appeared suddenly among the elders of the Jade Rabbit tribe who were gathered in the Elder Hall to discuss matters, startling them all and leaving them terrified. After understanding Yang Le's intention, they also became evasive and hesitant, speaking ambiguously.

  Seeing the elderly's hesitant appearance, Yang Le explained the meaning and relationship between them and the King of Youming, but it was still useless. Impatient, he casually dropped a sentence, which shocked the elders of the Jade Rabbit tribe, making them break out in cold sweat. Only then did they reveal to Yang Le the miserable situation of the Jade Rabbit tribe and the surrounding tribes, tearfully accusing the evil deeds of King Youming, hoping that Yang Le would lend a helping hand and rescue countless lives from the sea of suffering.

  How could the old foxes be scared by one sentence and completely believe Yang Le's words? It turned out that Yang Le had only said "there are seven demons below" and the biggest secret of the entire Jade Rabbit clan was exposed.

  The many elders knew that deep beneath the ground, thousands of feet down, there was a massive cave where their five Demon Saints and two Demon Emperors were secretly cultivating. It was extremely secretive, and apart from the elders knowing about the existence of their ancestors, all the other members of the tribe were completely unaware.

  A great divine insight, can actually perceive the shadows of the ancestors in a depth of ten thousand feet, while the ancestors have no reaction. It can be said that it is a great divine insight at the same level as the demon lord, and it is impossible for it to be a spy sent by the Demon King of the Miao Kingdom.

  After understanding the truth, a surge of uncontrollable anger rose in Yang Le's heart. This evil existence committed such heinous crimes and should be exterminated.

  Due to concerns about the safety of the previous batch of little rabbit demons, Yang Le had a brief exchange and then flashed away into the sky. The various elders hurriedly went down to report to their ancestors.

  Just in time for this decade-long tribute, Yang Le unfolded his vast perception to cover nearly half of the vast territory, and saw that on the roads everywhere, teams of demon soldiers were carrying small demons who were crying and driving black wind and dark clouds in the low sky.

  Suddenly, Yang Le appeared abruptly in mid-air for a long time, and the group of demon soldiers behind him slowly emerged into view.

  "What kind of monster is ahead, retreat quickly! This is the tribute being escorted for King Ming's divine inspection. If there's any disobedience, kill without mercy..." The leader of the wolf demons riding on dark clouds shouted loudly.

  Whoosh, before the words had even fallen, a dark and murky blade aura traversed a distance of thousands of feet in an instant. Pffft, it pierced through the brow of the Wolf Demon King, Ka-chop, a ripping sound, annihilating the demonic core within, thoroughly dispersing his soul.

  The remaining momentum had not dissipated, and in the midst of a dense pack of demonic soldiers, it darted back and forth, instantly piercing through the brows of hundreds of demonic soldiers, causing corpse after corpse to fall to the ground, each one transforming into a wolf-like shape thousands of feet tall.

  Yang Le rushed around like a firefighter, transferring and escorting troops on various routes, and solved all the demonic soldiers in half a day.

  On a majestic mountain range of one million zhang, a magnificent palace of ten thousand zhang stands on a vast square platform twenty li in circumference at the summit, with towering peaks and layers of small palaces within, glazed tiles shining emerald green, the walls of the palace carved with countless strange and bizarre beasts, shrouded in mist and cloud, like an immortal realm.

  In the palace, a handsome young man sat upright on the throne, with only a hint of coldness in his eyes, somewhat enchanting and somewhat evil, like a poisonous snake, ruthless and treacherous.

  As the ruler of one of the seventeen domains in the eastern part of the Boundary Mountain, the true body of the Wangyou deity, a green-scaled python, was feeling extremely joyful at this moment. This year was the day when tributes were offered once every ten years, and only then could he satisfy some of his cravings.

  At the thought of this, the dark and sinister eyes of King Youwang flashed with a poisonous glow. In the Donglin mountain range under his rule, he dominated the fate of all living beings in this vast region, and the lives of the creatures in his territory were at his disposal. The creatures of the land still trembled at his will, and the Donglin mountain range was firmly established!

  That period of time was the most memorable for him, as he used to dominate the Eastern Mountain Range and satisfy his own desires. However, who would have thought that the surrounding Lan Feng Yao Zun and Qi She Yao Zun would jointly report to the higher-ups, resulting in them restricting his crazy devouring behavior, leaving him to rely on the tribute every ten years to satisfy himself.

  The Mo Wang Yao Zun's pale face looked even more ferocious as he recalled past events.

  If it weren't for the ban above, he would have knocked on the door long ago.
