Caishen Hall, third floor.
The ancient demon's shrill cry made Li Zhenyu and Jiang Fengqing on the side have to cover their ears.
None of their cultivations were as good as the ancient demon, so when the ancient demon screamed with inner strength, they had to use their inner strength to protect their eardrums to prevent the scream from hurting their bodies and minds.
But this time, the ancient demon's cry lasted far longer than they imagined.
Before, the ancient demon just called out once or twice and then stopped, but now half an hour has passed and the ancient demon still has no intention of stopping.
And as time passed, Li Zhenyu was surprised to find that the big hole that had been burned by the flames on the floor was now in flames again.
In just a moment, the flame became more intense, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a small fire dragon and pounced on the old servant.
Although the little fire dragon is only three feet tall, no matter its appearance or every move, it exudes a sense of majesty and inviolability, leaving a line of sparks as bright as a sea of stars wherever it passes.
Woo woo woo
The ancient demon's cry also changed its tone at this time, like resentment, admiration, weeping, complaining, the faint cry was like the whisper of a resentful woman, telling endless thoughts.
Moreover, the figure of the ancient demon began to become illusory at this time, wandering in the air.
Just when Jiang Fengqing and Li Zhenyu were confused, the figure of the ancient demon suddenly trembled and appeared in another place in an instant.
In less than a second, the old servant's figure appeared where the ancient demon had been, and a pair of palms struck the air with overwhelming power.
The old servant's move caused explosive sparks to appear in the surrounding air, and the entire third floor seemed to tremble.
However, it didn't even hit a single hair of the ancient demon. This made the old man's slightly pale face flash with a trace of anger. It was obvious that he couldn't bear the consumption at this time, and he still hadn't accomplished anything yet.
He had waited for so long just now and finally waited for an opportunity, but he was dodged by the ancient demon's terrifying speed.
Just as the old servant was calculating the gains and losses in his mind, Li Zhenyu suddenly shouted loudly, interrupting his thinking.
"Senior, watch your back!"
Li Zhenyu stared behind the old servant eagerly, and saw the fire dragon leaping quickly towards the old servant, his eyes full of vicious murderous intent. However, the old servant did not seem to notice the fire dragon behind him.
After hearing Li Zhenyu's urgent reminder, the old servant finally reacted.
After seeing the fire dragon coming quickly behind him, the old servant was shocked. He obviously didn't expect that the fire dragon made no sound when it jumped. At this time, there was not much time for him to avoid the fire dragon's attack. He could only put himself into position and prepare to resist the fire dragon's attack.
As for the ancient demon, it had floated to a safe height at this time, overlooking the duel between the old servant and the fire dragon.
The seemingly light fire dragon struck the old servant's palms, but caused the old servant's feet, which had already been braced, to sink into the golden floor. He slid ten steps on the ground, leaving two lines of deep ravines. In the end, his feet actually sank into the floor.
The reason why he stopped was because the fire dragon exploded at the last moment.
When the fire dragon exploded, there was no earth-shattering power. There was only a small crackling explosion of sparks, as if something was burning.
Since the old servant had his back to Jiang Fengqing and Li Zhenyu, they didn't know why the old servant still stood there for a long time after the fire dragon exploded.
"Senior...are you okay?" Li Zhenyu said cautiously.
Li Zhenyu looked at the familiar figure of the old servant and had a bad feeling in his heart.
As the old servant slowly turned around, Jiang Fengqing saw that a thick layer of black dust seemed to have fallen on the messy ground behind him.
Before the old servant could completely turn around, Li Zhenyu was stunned to see that the entire front of the old servant's body was black and charred.
Only half of a pair of arms were left charred and hanging in the air. The thin layer of skin on the chest was gone, the exposed ribs were also covered with a layer of black, and all the internal organs inside the chest were burned to charcoal.
At this time, the ancient demon appeared and slowly stepped on the old servant's head.
The old servant's face, which was so charred that he couldn't tell his appearance, was instantly shattered. His whole body, from the top of his head down, was like a skyscraper beginning to collapse.
The ancient demon's slow descent was not hindered at all by the broken body of the old servant. When the ancient demon landed, there was already a layer of black dust under its feet that did not reach its ankles.
Li Zhenyu's eyes were blood red when he saw this. You must know that this old servant has saved him from danger many times. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is his reborn parent, but this time he lost his life because of him. He My heart was filled with mixed feelings for a while.
Guilt, sadness, anger, powerlessness...
All kinds of emotions intertwined into a big net, trapping Li Zhenyu so tightly that he could barely make a sound from his throat and was almost suffocated.
The ancient demon clawed at the ground, and the strong wind instantly lifted up the black dust and scattered it into the air.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, the human race doesn't even recognize the Demon King's fire, and they still want to use flesh and blood to catch it. It's ridiculous!!!"
Jiang Fengqing and others were all shocked, obviously they did not expect that this ancient demon could actually speak human language.
The next moment, Jiang Fengqing said in shock, "Demon Emperor's Fire! Is it the Demon Emperor's Fire that the Demon Emperor gave to the Four Emperors?!"
Before the Demon Emperor was born, the Demon Clan had always been led by four extremely powerful demon beasts, fighting on their own, known as the Four Emperors.
When the Demon Emperor was born and suppressed the Four Emperors, he proclaimed himself emperor and gave the Four Emperors a Demon Emperor fire.
The fire born from this fire can directly burn the bodies of warriors below the seventh level into ashes.
After the Four Emperors obtained the Demon Emperor's fire, they immediately passed it on to their soldiers.
Suddenly, the strength of the entire demon clan was directly upgraded to a level, instantly changing the battlefield situation to one-sided.
Countless human beings died tragically in the raging fire. From then on, the battlefield was no longer littered with corpses, but instead filled with black dust.
The tragic history of the human race is paved with fire and black dust. While the human race is constantly escaping from the pursuit of the demon clan, it is losing pieces of dark land one after another.
The Demon King's Fire followed closely behind the human race, driving them away from their homeland. What once brought them light and warmth has now become an extremely sharp weapon, making them extremely hateful.
"I didn't expect you to know such a secret... That's fine. I'll let you go today. You can go!" The ancient demon's hoarse voice seemed to have something stuck in its throat, as if it had been silent for so many years and had no words. for the sake of.
Li Zhenyu was stunned when he heard this, obviously he didn't expect that the ancient demon would just let them leave.
However, after the ancient demon finished speaking, he ignored them and turned around to walk towards the dying deacons in black and purple robes lying beside the screen.
When Li Zhenyu saw this, he didn't care about Jiang Fengqing, who was still sitting on the chair watching the show, and ran directly to the stairs.
After a while, bursts of tearing sounds of flesh and blood could be heard from the third floor, as well as the sounds of gnawing flesh and blood.
The ancient demon was obviously in a happy mood and seemed to enjoy executing these human beings who were still alive.
Under its sharp claws, the fragile skin was broken open, warm blood burst out, and steaming internal organs were pulled out one after another.
As one human race after another lost their lives in its hands, a satisfied smile gradually appeared on the ancient demon's face.
When the last purple-robed deacon was hollowed out by it, the ancient demon stretched out its sharp claws, shaved its bright red teeth, and slowly walked up to Jiang Fengqing.
An Zicheng saw that his compatriots from the human race could only be used as food for the demon clan, and there was already an unwilling anger in his heart, because he did not deal with the demon emperor's fire of the ancient demon.
During the war between the human race and the demon race, he knew the power of the demon emperor's fire. It can be said that more than ten million human soldiers died under the demon emperor's fire.
What's more, this is the God of Wealth Hall, and it's in the center of Chang'an City. He doesn't know when someone from the God of Wealth Hall will come to deal with this ancient demon.
He could only look at Jiang Fengqing still sitting on the chair, but he didn't know what Jiang Fengqing's plan was.
The ancient demon came to stand in front of Jiang Fengqing step by step, tilting his head and looking at the two people curiously.
"Aren't you so scared that your legs are weak? Or do you feel confident that you can survive in my hands?"
The ancient demon pointed at the puddle of black dust where there was still a small pile of old servants on the ground.
An Zicheng was shocked for a moment and couldn't help but start thinking about what chance they would have of escaping if the ancient demon attacked them.
But no matter how he calculated, he couldn't think of any way to bring Jiang Fengqing out of the God of Wealth Hall intact.
Without waiting for their reply, the ancient demon jumped onto the gambling table, squatted down, and started tinkering with the jade box they had placed on the table.
However, these jade stones could not withstand the tearing of its claws, and the jade boxes fell into pieces within two strokes.
"It's worth... it's worth... a city..."
Gu Yao squinted his eyes, grabbed the small piece of paper with both hands and started reading.
An Zicheng was so shocked by this ancient demon that his world view collapsed.
"Why... can you still read?" An Zicheng asked with a trembling voice.
The ancient demon gave him a disdainful look and said disdainfully, "Thank you for your murderous aura, and it seems that you participated in the original human-monster war. Why didn't anyone tell you that the demon clan is almost invincible to humans as long as they transform into the seventh level?" Is it unusual to be able to speak and read? Even fox monsters like those are born with the ability to transform."
"Ah this..." An Zicheng was instantly speechless and couldn't answer, but his heart was filled with turmoil. From what this ancient demon just said, he vaguely inferred that this ancient demon was once a seven-year-old demon. Taste!
At this time, the ancient demon looked at Jiang Fengqing again, as if he could see his face through the straw hat he wore on his head.
"Can I eat this person?"
The ancient demon's quiet voice echoed on the third floor. An Zicheng was very surprised as to why the ancient demon was pointing at Jiang Fengqing with one finger and looking upward.
An Zicheng looked in the direction it was looking, but could only see a ceiling made of gold.
"Could it be that this ancient demon has been sleeping in the stone for too long and his mind is not clear?" An Zicheng wondered in his mind why this ancient demon acted like this and actually talked to the air.
These ancient demons were all sealed in this stone by chance, and then relied on absorbing pure energy from time to time underground to maintain their lives.
However, some monsters are not so lucky. If they accidentally stop absorbing, they can only leave a white skeleton in the stone, alone and silent in the endless darkness.
Therefore, the ancient monsters who survive to see the light of day are extremely lucky, but good luck does not mean they can continue to live.
After most of the ancient monsters reappeared in the light of day, most of their strength was lost due to long periods of slumber, so they were easily killed by the human race.
Thinking of this, An Zicheng felt a little uneasy in his heart. Even though the ancient demon in front of him was a seventh-level cultivator before, it could still kill a sixth-level warrior at full state after sleeping for so long. This was unlike what he had seen before. It was said that ten third-level warriors could easily kill an eighth-level ancient demon that just walked out of the stone.
"They have set up a tea reception on the fifth floor. Let's go up together." Jiang Fengqing took off her straw hat, put it on the table, and said to An Zicheng and Gu Yao with a smile.
