Chapter 835 – Scorpion Woman’s Allegiance
Chapter 835 – Scorpion Woman’s Allegiance
The other two devil cultivators chased up, learned that the scorpion woman fled into the inner city, equally furious, and casually snapped the neck of the scapegoat.
However, they didn’t dare to set foot in the inner city, so they could only give up and leave with hatred.
The Scorpion Woman who escaped into the inner city was soon targeted by several strong auras.
With fear in her heart, she rushed into a courtyard at a speed that was not slow, and only then did the several lines of sight that were staring at her slowly retract.
The Scorpion Woman was shocked, and when she saw the corpses strewn about in the courtyard, and the courtyard wall that had long since collapsed, she was too frightened to move.
Xu Chuniang turned back to her head, and with a flick of her wrist, the demonic blood stained on the long knife in her hand was flung away, leaving no more traces.
Noticing that those demonic thoughts peering from the shadows had faded away like a tidal wave, only then did she nonchalantly put away the knife, casting a sidelong glance at the Scorpion Woman kneeling on the ground.
“Something wrong?”
The Scorpion Lady lowered her head, not daring to look at the corpses around her.
All of these demonic cultivators were dead, but when they were alive, no matter which one of them, they were not something she could easily mess with.
She crouched her body to the lowest level, “Please still save me, my lord.”
Xu Chuniang raised her eyebrows slightly, “Save you?”
The Scorpion Woman’s heart sank, in the daytime, she had only moved her lips and led the way, and she had gained a huge favor.
But this benefit, however, attracted the eyes and killing intent of others, becoming a life-suppressing talisman.
Scorpion Lady knew very well that for demonic cultivators, feelings were the most useless thing.
The only way to save one’s life was to take out something that could impress the other party.
A dagger suddenly appeared in her hand and made a heavy stroke towards the scorpion’s tail!
A mist as thick as black ink spilled out from the wound, and was caught by the Scorpion Lady in a black bottle.
Xu Chuniang watched this with interest, and from the black mist, she sensed intense toxicity.
This black mist was the Scorpion Lady’s killer weapon, the Scorpion Poison.
Scorpion Lady gritted her teeth, and after forcing all the poison out of her body, she sealed the mouth of the bottle tightly and presented it with both hands.
“My lord, I have no body, only the scorpion poison is scary, now I offer it to you, I only hope you can bless me.”
From the very beginning, the Scorpion Lady realized that she must not hand over Lord Frost Luo’s corpse, to anyone else!
In the Demon Realm, not being able to protect an object of reward was tantamount to openly admitting one’s incompetence.
She had managed to fall into the eyes of the new Lord Vice Commander, and was about to seize this opportunity to move up the ladder.
If she got the reward and then immediately gave it to someone else, it would be a disguised way of telling others that the Vice Lord Commander’s vision was not good enough, and that he valued a piece of trash.
The last thing the devil world needs is trash.
For the sake of today’s plan, the only way for her to survive is to be loyal to the new Vice Lord Commander.
Xu Chuniang quietly scrutinized her, “That corpse is what I rewarded you with, but it attracted a killing opportunity for you, you don’t hate me, instead you want to offer poison to me?”
The Scorpion Woman’s body trembled, “I don’t dare, it’s because my strength is low, letting Your Excellency down.”
Xu Chuniang laughed gently, slightly raising her hand, the black bottle in the Scorpion Granny’s hand flew into her palm.
This was the devil world, as long as one was strong, one could easily obtain everything.
Power, wealth …… and, the allegiance of others.
And the weak, who have given everything, must still be grateful, or else they don’t deserve to live.
Xu Chuniang s eyes were cold, thinking of certain things.
The seven great lineages in power in the human race, the control and oppression of the human race for tens of thousands of years, were not the acts of the demon race.
It was just that they had created a grand excuse to deceive the world, and then they truly thought how noble they were.
Hehe, it turns out that the Spirit World and the Demon World are just different ways of cultivation, and there is no difference between them.
She suppressed her thoughts and looked coldly at the Scorpion Woman, “How can I trust you?” Before she came, Scorpion Granny had long been prepared, and she unloaded all her defenses upon hearing her words.
“I have already prepared myself and will always submit to Your Excellency.”
In the Demon Realm, the only way for the weak to survive if they wanted to be sheltered by the strong was to completely submit.
Leaving a brand in the divine soul was the safest and the method that all devil cultivators used.
Xu Chuniang cast out a demonic thought and branded it on top of the Scorpion Woman’s divine soul, forming an ancient and bizarre rune before disappearing.
As long as she moved a single thought, Granny Scorpion’s divine soul would shatter and die.
As the brand was formed, the Scorpion Lady was relieved instead.
From the moment she broke into the inner city, she was already prepared to die.
To be able to receive the favor of the lord and be able to save her life meant that she still had value.
The Scorpion Woman carefully raised her head, “Your Excellency is new here, I’m afraid that you might not be used to it, why don’t you allow me to stay here and drive for your Excellency?”
“May.”
Scorpion granny sighed in relief, when Lord Frost Luo was easily killed, she knew that His Excellency would be able to gain a firm foothold in the inner city.
The corpses on the ground just now were witness to that.
And she hadn’t forgotten that His Excellency had climbed out of the Valley of Souls only a short while ago.
Just crawling out of the Valley of the Souls, to be able to have such strength, one could imagine how amazing the future would be.
The Scorpion Lady’s eyes revealed ambition and desire, once she wanted to serve Lord Frost Luo several times, but Frost Luo couldn’t see her, thinking that she was nothing but scorpion venom.
By following Lord Frost Luo, perhaps one day in the future, she would be able to rely on her own strength and step into the inner city in a dignified manner.
Xu Chuniang, who had stepped into the room, didn’t care about the scorpion woman’s thoughts.
Soon after she entered this courtyard, she was quickly targeted by the nearby demonic cultivators.
Seeing that she only had the strength of a mid-Healing God, one by one, they couldn’t wait to strike out at her, only to die under her blade one after another.
A total of twelve demonic cultivators were killed before and after, and only then did they deter all the nearby demonic cultivators, and no one dared to make a move on her.
Before she had time to dispose of the corpses, the Scorpion Woman rushed in.
Xu Chuniang took down the mustard space of these devil cultivators and casually put it away before condensing a wisp of Underworld Fire and scorching it towards these corpses.
Under the scorching heat of the Underworld Fire, the corpses were burned to the point of “snorting”, and their demonic bodies continued to burn, releasing a large amount of turbid demonic qi.
Trapped by the formation, these demonic qi were trapped in the room and could not be detached, gradually gathering more and more.
Under the scorching fire of the demonic fire, the turbid demonic qi continued to sink, while the pure demonic qi floated above, being inhaled by Xu Chuniang in mid-air.
Her cultivation level, too, grew at an extremely fast pace.
In the end, the twelve demonic bodies completely disappeared, completely transformed into demonic qi that she inhaled into her body.
Only the most turbid part of the demonic qi was left over.
She opened her eyes and felt that her cultivation had once again risen by a small realm, but her face did not change much.
These turbid demonic qi were not only slow to absorb, but could also hinder cultivation, and were of little value.
She pinched out a fingertip in her hand, and the formation in the room leaked out a crack, so these demonic qi easily dispersed and overflowed.
After dealing with the demonic body, it was the turn of the divine soul next.
