Chapter 839 - 840: Demon King Among His Followers
The plan here is the most important part of the Demon Lord’s plan. After all, all the top martial artists have gathered inside the Nangong Family. As long as these top experts are all dealt with, the Demon Lord’s plan is almost halfway successful.
But if the plan here fails, then the Demon Lord’s plan is also likely to fail.
Of course, if this task wasn’t so critical, the Demon Lord wouldn’t have sent the Black Demon Guards into action, especially not with the presence of the Black Demon King.
"Alright then, since you’re here, this Demon King will take you out first!
Let you know how formidable we Black Demon Guards are!"
The self-proclaimed Demon King spoke.
The next moment, his figure appeared in the basin and he exclaimed, "All Black Demon Guards, stay alert, someone has arrived."
"Yes, Demon King."
The Black Demon Guards hidden around responded one after another, and then continued hiding in their original positions.
At this time, Lin Kuang entered the basin calmly, looking at the Demon King before him.
"I truly didn’t expect the Demon Sect to have such formidable strength, bringing out these dozen or so experts at once, it’s truly admirable."
Looking at the Demon King, Lin Kuang commented with a smile.
Hearing Lin Kuang’s words, the Demon King’s expression slightly changed. Lin Kuang revealed the number of the Black Demon Guards immediately, showcasing how strong Lin Kuang must be!
"I never expected that you, who could be killed so easily in the past, have grown to such an extent, it’s really surprising."
The Demon King spoke flatly, seemingly quite familiar with Lin Kuang.
Upon hearing this, Lin Kuang shook his head and smiled: "The past is the past, now is now, the two cannot be compared at all.
After all, everyone grows, if it were decades ago, you might have been easily wiped out by others too.
Alright, let’s stop talking about these useless things.
I’m just very curious, who exactly are you in the Demon Sect? Your strength is really impressive."
Looking at the Demon King, Lin Kuang questioned curiously.
"Strong? The Demon Sect has plenty of people at my level, I’m just one of the weaker ones."
The Demon King replied flatly.
"You really know how to brag, huh.
However, the more you brag, the more it shows you’re insecure. I can conclude that there aren’t many such experts in the Demon Sect.
At most one or two, and besides you, there might be a dozen or so, which is already quite a lot."
Lin Kuang stated calmly.
Lin Kuang wasn’t a fool. If the Demon Sect had many such experts, the Demon Lord would have long led people to massacre the experts of the Righteous Path.
"Hmph, this only shows your ignorance. Our strength is not something you can estimate.
If you knew the strength our Demon Sect possesses, you would probably be scared to death."
The Demon King sneered, a tone of disdain in his voice.
Hearing this, Lin Kuang couldn’t help but roll his eyes. This guy really knows how to blow his own horn, isn’t he afraid of getting caught in his own lies?
"Alright, enough talking, I’m not here to listen to your boasts, I’m here to kill you.
Let your people come out, hiding doesn’t mean I can’t see them, right?"
Lin Kuang said with a smile.
Hearing this, the Demon King nodded with an unpleasant expression: "Very good, really good, it’s been a long time since I’ve encountered someone as arrogant as you.
Since you want to die, I’ll oblige you.
Come out, kill him!"
With that, the Demon King stepped back slightly, showing no intention of making a move.
Just after the Demon King finished speaking, twelve Black Demon Guards appeared around Lin Kuang, encircling him closely.
"Make it quick, don’t make too much noise."
The Demon King instructed, his indifferent tone seemingly certain that Lin Kuang was doomed, not having put Lin Kuang in his eyes at all.
"Yes, Demon King."
The twelve Black Demon Guards replied, then shifted their focus to Lin Kuang.
If it were a few days before, Lin Kuang would have had no choice but to run when facing these experts.
However, now Lin Kuang is not afraid at all and is even a bit excited.
It’s just twelve half-step Ninth Layer Ascent experts, what does Lin Kuang have to fear?!
"Tsk tsk, twelve half-step Ninth Layer Ascent martial artists, the Demon Sect really pulls out all the stops."
Looking at the twelve people around him, Lin Kuang remarked calmly.
Upon hearing this, the twelve people didn’t speak, each pulling out a dazzling long knife, the light from twelve sharp blades radiating, their points directed at Lin Kuang.
Invisibly, a powerful pressure emerged, but Lin Kuang didn’t care.
This pressure had no effect on Lin Kuang whatsoever.
"I say, Demon King, aren’t you going to make a move? These few people are not my opponents at all."
Looking at the Demon King, who seemed to want to watch the show, Lin Kuang couldn’t help but ask with a smile.
"If you can kill my Demon Guards, I will make a move.
However, under my twelve Demon Guards, you are doomed, not even a true Ninth Layer Ascension Realm martial artist could withstand them, let alone you who have not reached that level."
The Demon King spoke indifferently, words carrying disdain and an unwavering confidence in the twelve Black Demon Guards.
Hearing this, Lin Kuang nodded: "Alright then, since you’re so confident, I’ll kill your Demon Guards first."
With that, Lin Kuang pulled out the Nameless Sword from his body, looking at the twelve Demon Guards before him with a calm expression.
At that moment, the twelve Demon Guards exchanged a glance, and then the dazzling True Qi enveloped the twelve bright long knives.
The next moment, the twelve long knives slashed out simultaneously, the dazzling blades exploded, all targeting Lin Kuang.
In an instant, the twelve blades descended as if forming a Light Barrier, enveloping Lin Kuang within, creating a terrifying scene.
Seeing this, the Demon King, who did not make a move, sneered coldly.
In the face of these twelve people’s full-force, even he couldn’t withstand it, let alone Lin Kuang?
In his view, under this one slash, Lin Kuang would surely turn to dust, dead beyond dead!
And what was the reality? The reality was that Lin Kuang withstood the full-force slash of these twelve half-step Ninth Layer Ascension Realm experts.
Yes, Lin Kuang held up the Nameless Sword, with Profound Qi surging within his body, injecting strong Profound Qi into the Nameless Sword, withstanding the twelve strikes.
"Is this your power? It doesn’t seem like much to me."
At this moment, Lin Kuang’s voice emerged from within the blade-light.
Hearing Lin Kuang’s groan, the Demon King’s expression slightly changed, disbelief in his eyes.
Facing the terrifying twelve strikes, Lin Kuang was not dead?!
Moreover, from the way Lin Kuang spoke, he seemed to be very relaxed at the moment, not struggling at all, how, how is this possible?!
At this moment, the twelve Black Demon Guards were also showing shock in their eyes. They didn’t expect their twelve’s full-power strike not to cause any harm to Lin Kuang.
"Alright, now it’s my turn to counterattack!"
Lin Kuang’s voice sounded again, only this time his voice had become a bit more imposing.
