I Possessed a Demon Sovereign

Chapter 29

When facing Chen Luoyang’s eyes that were surging with black radiance, Shangguan Song’s body turned cold. He composed his mind and replied with lowered head, “This old one was incompetent with his protection. I hope that Cult Master can forgive me.”

“Mingjing is injured and was still faster than you,” Chen Luoyang said indifferently.

Elder Mingjing stood quietly by the side and didn’t say anything. Zhang Tianheng and Vajra instantly looked over at Shangguan Song with unfriendly eyes.

Shangguan Song replied with a self-recriminating voice, “This old one is muddle-headed and hasn’t been in battle for a long time. Therefore, I wasn’t able to react in time. In the future, I will cultivate diligently and guarantee there will not be a second time.”

Chen Luoyang nodded. “Seventh Elder has been self-cultivating in the Elder Pavilion for two years, and your blade has been covered in dust. It is no wonder you are rusty, and it is pardonable. Since you haven’t been in battle for a long time, then you should have more practice. Wang Dubao needs to recuperate. Therefore, Seventh Elder shall replace him. You shall be This Seat’s pioneer and pave the road ahead.”

Shangguan Song inhaled a cold breath in response to the command. The Other Tribe’s Left Sage King wasn’t here on friendly terms. When both parties encountered each other in Qian Prefecture, a battle of life and death would be inevitable.

If Shangguan Song was thrown to the frontlines alone, how was it different from being bait?

When Wang Dubao was leading at the front, he was targeted by the enemy, and it resulted in his current half-dead state. Now that one of the Ten Gallants, ‘Black Owl’ Er Hanke, had died by Chen Luoyang’s hands, there was definitely going to be desperate attempts at revenge from the Other Tribe. It was possible that Shangguan Song’s outcome might be more disastrous than Wang Dubao’s outcome.

When Wang Dubao suffered a defeat, the young generation faction’s Xiao Yuntian, Zhang Tianheng, and Vajra would provide assistance. But if Shangguan Song suffered a defeat, he wouldn’t receive such good treatment.

The Demon Cult’s Seventh Elder was fuming with chilling air at the bottom of his heart. He opened his mouth but wasn’t able to let out any voice.

Chen Luoyang looked at Shangguan Song with a placid and serious expression.

At this moment, Shangguan Song felt an unprecedented regret. He regretted going to Shu Prefecture to verify if Chen Luoyang was really injured. From the looks of it, Chen Luoyang’s injuries weren’t a big problem. A soft shout was already able to kill a 10th stage Other Tribe martial king.

Even though Shangguan Song felt that the Cult Master was still a little off from full recovery, the problem was that Chen Luoyang had merely shouted softly. It couldn’t even be considered as Chen Luoyang personally making a move. It wasn’t even considered one move, it was only half a move.

An expert of the martial emperor stage could materialize the martial dao intent. A single fist or kick could shift the mountains or empty the seas. It was far superior to a martial king. However, when the Cult Master jolted that assassin to death and neutralized Wang Dubao’s Blood Soul Curse, it took just a soft shout from him.

Chen Luoyang didn’t even reveal his martial dao intent, let alone materializing it. He was purely using his superiority in cultivation stage to oppress the enemy. To be able to do this, it meant that even if Chen Luoyang’s injuries weren’t fully recovered, they shouldn’t be significant.

The shock that Shangguan Song received had yet to fully dissipate even until now. It was truly hard to believe that the Cult Master was able to remain so imposing even after a duel with the Sword Pavilion Lord.

Shangguan Song forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart and lowered his head. “Many thanks to Cult Master for being magnanimous. This old one shall do his best to atone for his sins.”

Chen Luoyang said, “Go then.”

Shangguan Song looked a little absent-minded as he walked out of the main hall.

After watching Shangguan Song leave, Vajra said, “Cult Master, we have to be on guard that he might contact the Other Tribe. Let me keep an eye on him, and if he dares to have any ideas, I will deal with him.”

Chen Luoyang said indifferently, “Leave it to Yuntian.”

Xiao Yuntian who was enveloped in flowing wind responded softly, “I shall comply with Cult Master’s orders.”

“That old Shangguan can serve as bait. It doesn’t matter if the Other Tribe comes to bite him, or if he attempts to collude with them, we will then be able to locate the Other Tribe’s members easily.” Zhang Tianheng rubbed his palms.

“Let’s wake Dubao first.” Chen Luoyang tapped on the armrest with his finger.

People who were inflicted with the Other Tribe’s Blood Soul Curse would suffer great damage to the spirit.

When Wang Dubao woke up, his spirit was still weak, and his eyes were dazed. He endured his unwell symptoms and knelt down to seek forgiveness from Chen Luoyang.

After listening to Wang Dubao’s explanation, Chen Luoyang and the others gradually understood the whole story.

The Other Tribe’s Left Sage King Xiuzhe had led his subordinates and a group of Other Tribe experts down to the south. After hearing that Chen Luoyang had seized Shu Prefecture and was returning to the Southern Desolate Demon Cult Shrine, Left Sage King Xiuzhe didn’t bother moving together with the alliance army and left to obstruct Chen Luoyang without consulting anyone.

To return from the Shu Prefecture to the South Desolate Demon Domain’s shrine, it was fastest to cut across Qian Prefecture. It was why the Left Sage King was at the Qian Prefecture.

However, the Qian Prefecture was vast; as such, the Left Sage King’s subordinates had all split up to search for Chen Luoyang’s whereabouts. When Wang Dubao was leading at the front, he just happened to encounter a group of enemies.

“He must have been targeted for a long time. They were even able to contact and gather more men before launching an assault on Protector Wang. They then planned the assassination against Cult Master,” Xiao Yuntian said. “If that is the case, Left Sage King Xiuzhe, his subordinates, and the Other Tribe’s experts will be reaching here soon.”

“Xiuzhe isn’t bad,” Chen Luoyang said casually. “Although, if he had come straight to Shu Prefecture for the battle, This Seat would have given him a much higher evaluation.”

Vajra laughed by the side and said, “To be able to keep his life after crossing moves with Cult Master is indeed extraordinary.”

Chen Luoyang waved his hand and said, “Alright, you may all be dismissed.”

Everyone then asked to be excused.

Xiao Yuntian went to monitor Shangguan Song while searching for the Other Tribe’s experts. Zhang Tianheng and Elder Mingjing accompanied Wang Dubao; the three of them had to quickly recuperate from their injuries. Vajra stayed behind to serve Chen Luoyang.

“Reporting to Cult Master, as you previously instructed, a total of 21 types of rare resources, like the Scarce Moon Immortal Milk, Desolate Fantasy Herb, and others have been delivered here by the cult members,” Vajra reported.

“Deliver them to This Seat’s room.” Chen Luoyang stood up from the throne and walked out of the main hall before heading for his room.

The Ten Revolution Primary Elixir must be quickly concocted so that my injuries can recover as quickly as possible. After all, the Stake All Technique can only be used for one move, and I am unable to use it for the rest of the day.

Vajra acted according to his instructions and delivered the rare resources to his room before asking to be excused.

Chen Luoyang looked at the dazzling lineup of treasures and felt a little dazzled. It was fortunate that there were plenty of books in the room at the Amrita Manor. Those general-knowledge books that were circulated in the Grand Divine Province were naturally not available on the Demon Cult Master’s carriage. However, those books were what Chen Luoyang required right now.

During his time at the Amrita Manor, he had been reading those books and documents in large quantities. A martial emperor’s body was physically powerful but also quick of mind. Thanks to that, Chen Luoyang was able to memorize a massive amount of information that was in the books.

After looking through his memories on the , , and , he was able to differentiate the rare resources in front of him.

Most of these resources and spirit herbs had more than one function and could be used for concoctions or the refining of tools. It would be hard for a subordinate to find out Chen Luoyang’s intention for these items; furthermore, he had also intentionally included some other items as a distraction.

However, if he wished to concoct these resources into the Ten Revolution Primary Elixir, he would need the skill to do so. Chen Luoyang could follow the concoction method stated on the document, and he tried to figure it out… He would need an elixir furnace right?

If I instruct the servants to look for one, will it be suspicious?

Chen Luoyang pondered.

Right at this moment, a servant came to report. “Reporting to Cult Master, the front line reported back saying that there has been another enemy attack.”

Chen Luoyang didn’t have a change in expression and took a deep and silent breath.

When one was worried about something, that thing would happen. The day wasn’t finished yet…
