The Demon God Emperor
Ch. 272 - Dragon Valley
"Let's go. We better go after the other demons. Since the fellow cultivator who just helped us eliminate the demons in this place is unwilling to show himself, we don't need to pay attention to him anymore because he might not want others to know his identity.” When an old man like the scholar spoke, the others nodded in agreement. Only the ugly man Big Brother Hui did not pay attention to his words.
After the other three left, he studied the traces and aura marks left in that place and felt confused and strange..
'This Soul Realm human cultivator aura seemed to be very familiar. Mmm, this aura should belong to someone I know. But where have I met this expert before?'Mumbled.
This ugly man would definitely not know that the human cultivator he was referring to was Qing Shan whom he had met when placing a bet while at the Demon Ghost Sect in Xin Country while running his duty.
That was why the confusion seen on his cold and indifferent expression towards others continued his grunt. "Dam... I feel so frustrated thinking about who this guy is. It's a really familiar aura, but I can't remember it. Ahhe.. Who the hell is he? Old Qin, Fellow Ma. No, not them. Who exactly is he? I'm sure I've met him before!”
He had never connected the Qing Shan he had met at that moment because he felt it was impossible for a young man to possess the prowess of a Soul Realm expert.
SWOSH!!! Not long after not having managed to get a hold of the aura possessor, his shadow disappeared in an instant from that place.
...
Right now, in a Dragon Valley, everyone was in a state of sadness.
The Sect Leader where Mou Li came from named Long Ye was sitting respectfully in the main hall at the moment. His white eyebrows and beard were covered in sweat. Her usual stunning facial features now had a hint of nervousness today.
There were several hundred cultivators who had come to the valley where it was from the Seven Different Sects gathered in the main hall, and they all looked at Long Ye with envy.
“Long Ye! Hand over those Heavenly Relics! My sect obtained the information that your sect elder named Mou Li had obtained the relic from the Yan State Founding Ancestral Hill a few days ago! It is the heirloom of Yan State, do you guys want to have it yourself?!” A silver-haired old man with a deep red kasaya asked as the aura of his Peak Golden Realm swept across the entire main hall!
Long Ye felt agonized under that aura and was unable to withstand its pressure.
The difference in strength between the Early and Peak stage Golden Realms was enormous. And besides, the old man who had just spoken was one of the old ancestors from among the Seven Great Sects who had come.
The name of this old man was Du Sheng with people calling him by his nickname, Lightning Du! This was because Du Sheng's technique and ferocity were unbelievably fast and the intermediate stage Gold Realm cultivator couldn't even take one of his palm strikes.
After Du Sheng spoke, the other six sects immediately followed suit and began to speak their minds as well.
“Long Ye! If you hand over the relic, the Demon Crow Sect will not cause you any trouble today!” A white-robed young man with white hair spoke in a tone of cynicism
“Highest treasures like the Heavenly Relic are not worth having by a second-rate sect like yours!” An old monk who was also the ancestor of his sect said in a sharp tone.
“Give me the relic! Otherwise, this Dragon Valley will be obliterated today!”
The sound of each and every threat continued to echo in the main hall, but Long Ye could only respond with a sigh.
'If the relic had been given to me by Mou Li, I would have handed it over to these seven great sects for the sake of peace. The seven old ancestors from each of these sects are ruthless people whom I cannot offend. Shit, now what should I do?' Said Long Ye inwardly as he sighed heavily.
There were only a total of two early stage Golden Realm experts in their Dragon Valley, Mou Li and Long Ye. The Dragon Valley was a second-rate Sect that existed in the Yan Country. The seven of the Ancestors of every first-rate and great sect had gathered in the Dragon Valley, with each of them having the power to trample and flatten their Dragon Valley.
Long Ye thought about whether Mou Li had died or had escaped with the treasure, if he did, he would really hate the traitor who brought disaster upon their sect.
If Mou Li had died from the attack of the demon wave, then even he would not be able to give any explanation for now.
'Ahhh.. What sin have I committed to be encouraged in such a state!' Said Long Ye again inwardly as he closed his eyes in disappointment with a calm face..'Forgetit... No matter where the relic is, I cannot possibly escape death today.'
"Long Ye, are you going to hand over the treasure or not ?!" Du Sheng asked one last time.
“I don't hold the treasure.. I swear by the devil my heart!” Long Ye replied bitterly.
“Hmmph! Stubborn old fool! Alright, the fellows all need not hold back anymore. We have to find the relic today even though it means leveling up destroying this entire Dragon Valley!”
After they heard Du Sheng's words, the expressions of the ancestors and the hundreds of sect members from each of the seven sects who had joined it became cold and their hidden killing intent suddenly came loose.
These people were made up of demon and true path cultivators, but regardless of their status, there was nothing good for the sake of obtaining heavenly treasures.
Every cultivator in the Long Valley trembled because of the several hundred killing intent directed at all of them.
There were even many disciples kneeling down and begging Long Ye not to bring disaster to their sect just for the sake of a treasure and also some of their disciples had already been slaughtered immediately.
Long Ye's eyes were filled with hatred. As he opened his eyes, he roared furiously.
“Du Sheng! I've been saying since the beginning that there are no treasures here! Even if I have it, this has nothing to do with my sect disciples, how dare you do this ?! ”
"Good! Goody! An early stage Gold Realm cultivator dared to shout at this old man! You must die! None of your sect disciples will be alive today.! Du Sheng sneered and at the next moment, a golden light enveloped his body.
SWOOOSH!!!
But suddenly, that golden light turned into a golden wheel spinning over the main hall nonstop and gave rise to a hundred golden giant palms as well as smashing the roof of that main hall, then the palm strike shot towards Long Ye as Du Sheng moved his hand.
