Chapter 317: A Mere Assumption
The great elder was shaking all over, pointing at the Devil God’s soul lantern, and said in horror: "Our Devil God will be even more powerful when he comes back... He even restored his lost soul!"
As soon as he said these words, all the devils kneeling behind him gasped and quickly kowtow in front of the Devil God’s soul lantern, shouting in unison: "All hail the Devil God! All hail the Devil God!"
While the devils kept repeating these words, the great elder kept staring at the Devil God’s soul lantern and found that the iridescent aura became thicker by the second. He looked at the soul lantern with wide eyes and mixed emotions, knowing that the day the Devil God returned would be the day of purgatory in the Devil Realm.
The great elder was trembling all over and losing all his strength. He quickly took out a communication talisman from his spiritual palace. He activated the communication talisman and said in a trembling voice: "The day the Devil God returns will be the day when the three dark realms face his wrath."
After saying that, the communication talisman turned into four black bats, flying out of the Soul Tower and flying towards the Ghost Realm and the Demon Realm. Soon after, in the Ghost Realm, the Ghost King noticed the black bat. He raised his bony hand and grabbed the black bat.
With a poof, the black bat crushed into black smoke, and the great elder’s trembling voice echoed in the spacious main hall of the Ghost Palace.
"The day the Devil God returns will be the day when the three dark realms face his wrath."
The pale face of the Ghost King, who was sitting on a throne made from humans’ skulls and bones, became even paler. Although his form is just a spirit body, the Ghost King knows that the Devil God has countless ways to kill him again even when he already died, and it will be more painful than those with a physical body. Just thinking of this made his soul body become unstable, and his figure flickered like a candle that was about to go out.
As the trembling voice of the great elder of the Devil Race dissipated, the Ghost King came back to his senses. He quickly took out a transparent pearl the size of a baby’s fist from the Qiankun bag tied on his waist.
Injecting Yin energy into the transparent pearl, the Ghost King stood up from the throne and stared at the transparent pearl. When there was a vortex inside the transparent pearl and it changed color, the Ghost King lowered his voice and said: "My lord, the Devil God is indeed still alive."
After he said that, a calm but cold voice came from the pearl after a long silence: "Continue with the second plan."
After receiving the order, the Ghost King lowered his head and said respectfully: "Yes, my lord."
