I Possessed a Demon Sovereign Chapter 42

Chapter 42: You Are Thinking Too Much

“Cult Master, how should we deal with these two individuals?” Xiao Yuntian bowed respectfully.

Chen Luoyang sat high on the throne while he took a glance at Helian Zhe and Zha Lei. His mind was rapidly thinking while his eyes landed on Zha Lei. He then used a casual tone to give his instruction. “This person, Tianheng will interrogate him.”

Zhang Tianheng immediately took a step out. “Yes, Cult Master.”

When Zha Lei was captured, his mental state was considered calm. When he heard that he was going to be interrogated, the Other Tribe elder still didn’t have a change in expression as he had already predicted it.

Chen Luoyang then took another glance at Helian Zhe and said, “This person, Yuntian shall take him.”

After finishing his statement, Chen Luoyang turned away and wasn’t concerned anymore.

Xiao Yuntian immediately responded, “I thank Cult Master for the grace.”

At the side, Wang Dubao then asked, “Left Envoy Xiao, how are you planning to deal with him?”

“Public execution,” Xiao Yuntian replied indifferently.

Wang Dubao said tactfully, “Left Envoy Xiao, Black Emperor Xiuzhe might be severely injured, but he still isn’t dead yet…”

Vajra chuckled and said, “Xiuzhe has been utterly defeated by Cult Master. How can he have the face to come and provoke our cult again?”

“That might be the case, but if we kill this gigolo, it is hard to be sure whether Xiuzhe will take revenge in the future,” Wang Dubao said. “It is natural that he wouldn’t have the guts to look for Cult Master, but our cult’s sacred lands are extensive and sometimes distant. We also have plenty of cult members. If Xiuzhe forsook his status and reputation to take revenge, it would be hard to defend against him.”

Vajra’s smile turned a little stiff while he sneaked a glance at Chen Luoyang. He then said with diffidence, “Xiuzhe was too busy with his own escape and had already disregarded this gigolo. It shows that he doesn’t really value this person, right?”

“That is exactly the proof that Xiuzhe values this gigolo,” Zhang Tianheng said loudly.

“He is already severely injured. If he continued to tangle with us, he might just make the Cult Master unhappy, and they would all have to die in this place. Now that Xiuzhe has escaped, he will be able to form a deterrence, that he might take revenge in the future. Since we captured his gigolo, it will result in this current apprehensive situation, which will actually guarantee this gigolo’s life.”

Zhang Tianheng might be talking like this, and his expression might be rather furious, but his tone was frivolous, as though he didn’t care.

Wang Dubao shook his head and said, “We still have to be careful.”

Everyone looked up at Chen Luoyang.

Chen Luoyang sat still and had an indifferent expression.

“This time, we will settle the problem at the shrine first. Afterwards, we don’t have to wait for him to appear, the cult will search for him and eliminate him.”

When the Demon Cult members heard the response, they were invigorated. “We shall comply with Cult Master’s orders.”

Wang Dubao then cupped his hands and said to Xiao Yuntian, “From what we saw today, the Black Emperor values this Helian Zhe very highly. Why don’t you allow this person to keep his petty life for now? Once we find the Black Emperor’s whereabouts, he might be useful.”

Xiao Yuntian took a glance at Helian Zhe and stayed silent for a moment before he nodded.

Chen Luoyang was sitting there and didn’t seem to care, but he had been observing his subordinates’ reactions.

From the look of things, Xiao Yuntian wouldn’t be considered passionate about the Demon Cult’s affairs, but he was guaranteed to do his best and was extremely loyal. He did things with the Demon Cult’s benefits as the priority and didn’t hesitate to put his personal feelings aside. However, would this state reach a certain limit in the future?

It is better to view this with importance. I have to think of a method to neutralize this situation… Chen Luoyang thought in his heart.

Helian Zhe was looking very pale now. His emotions were considered stable, but he wasn’t angry at all. Zha Lei took a deep glance at Helian Zhe. It was as if Helian Zhe understood what his elder meant as he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The fact that Xiuzhe’s Edict of Black Death had a flaw was something that he didn’t know either. Helian Zhe didn’t know that the Demon Cult was already plotting something, but this secret was definitely not divulged by him.

The Demon Cult members didn’t give them any chance to continue their conversation as Xiao Yuntian and Zhang Tianheng separated them and took them away.

“Dubao, you will stay in Qian Prefecture,” Chen Luoyang instructed.

Wang Dubao knelt on one knee and said, “I shall comply with Cult Master’s orders.”

The northwestern part of the Qian Prefecture was connected with the Shu Prefecture that the Demon Cult had newly conquered. The northern part was the Yu Prefecture which the Five Color Hall had surrendered. The northeastern part was the entrance to the Dian Prefecture. The southeastern part was the core areas of the Demon Domain — the Xiang Prefecture and Yue Prefecture. The eastern part was the Hunan Prefecture, and it was one of the frontlines for the battle with the Great Xia Empire.

Zhang Tianheng who governed the Dian Prefecture could accompany Chen Luoyang back to assist the shrine, but Wang Dubao had to stay in his own territory to oversee it, as it was linking the Demon Domain together from all directions.

The Other Tribe’s Left Sage King Xiuzhe had retreated in defeat. There might be more Other Tribe experts, but after Wang Dubao returned to the Dian Prefecture’s Demon Cult Branch, he could make use of the Mountain Shifting Golden Apes to defend for a rather long time.

The place to determine victory was still at the Demon Cult Shrine. The rest of the Demon Cult members were going to continue advancing southeast with the Cult Master.

After everyone obtained their orders, they left the main hall.

Chen Luoyang had also left the main hall and had returned to his room. He lowered his head to look at his palm.

He let out a soft shout to jolt the martial king, “Black Owl” Er Hanke, to death.

He used a single fist to defeat the martial emperor Xiuzhe who had cultivated the Edict of Black Death to the completion level.

But after using the Stake All Technique, his body would become weak, and the pain in his injuries would intensify, making it impossible for him to fight against another person. According to his experience, he would only recover after one entire day.

If he didn’t use the Stake All Technique, he would only have the strength of a martial master. It was true that martial masters would already be able to establish their own faction in the Grand Divine Province and would have a rather good reputation in a prefecture. Countless connate martial experts and posterior martial artists could only look at them with admiration. Even in the Demon Cult, a martial master would be considered the core of the direct-line disciples.

However, for his current situation, it was too pathetic and totally incompetent.

Chen Luoyang picked up a piece of shard and gently rubbed it while feeling the Clear Sky Divine Sword intent contained within.

Recovering to full strength as quickly as possible is the priority. Chen Luoyang’s eyes were gradually turning sharp.

One entire day passed by…

The Six Dragon Imperial Carriage soared through the sky and passed through the Qian Prefecture mountains.

When it was rather late, Chen Luoyang summoned Zhang Tianheng.

“Reporting to Cult Master, that old man is very crafty. This subordinate needs more time to verify his words,” Zhang Tianheng reported.

“This Seat shall see him,” Chen Luoyang instructed indifferently.

Zhang Tianheng acknowledged the order and brought the prisoner to Chen Luoyang. Zha Lei didn’t seem to have any injuries, but he looked rather withered.

Chen Luoyang waved his hand to dismiss Zhang Tianheng.

“This old one greets Cult Master Chen.” Zha Lei forcefully invigorated himself to look at Chen Luoyang.

Chen Luoyang didn’t look at Zha Lei; his eyes were looking at Zha Lei’s items.

All these things had already gone through Zhang Tianheng’s inspection, and it was offered up for the Cult Master to look through.

Chen Luoyang stood up and walked in front of these items before reaching out to grab a small cauldron before asking indifferently, “Does the Other Tribe’s medicine arts also use the Central Province’s cauldron to concoct elixirs and medicines?”

Zha Lei answered, “There is a saying in the Central Province, ‘A stone from another mountain can be used as a good jade.’ One can incorporate other practices to refine one’s own skills.”

Chen Luoyang nodded insipidly.

Zha Lei’s mind was filled with thoughts.

Did the Demon Sovereign wish to see him alone because the Demon Sovereign wanted to borrow his medicine skills and concoction skills? If that was the case, was the Demon Sovereign fully recovered or not? When the Demon Sovereign defeated his King, was it actually a cheap trick? What should he do next? Could he pretend to help the Demon Sovereign recover while secretly searching for opportunities to eliminate this demon lord?

Since he knew of the Demon Sovereign’s secret, after he helped out with the recovery, he would certainly be silenced. How was he going to stall for time and find a way to communicate with the outside or with his King and the others?

Just as the old man was pondering, he suddenly noticed Chen Luoyang smiling.

“If it is the same as the Central Province’s cauldron, then it would be great.”

After speaking, Chen Luoyang abruptly slammed his palm on Zha Lei’s head!
