Chapter 654 Ancient World (20)
The moment that the words “Demon Lord” was spoken, everyone revealed looks of shock.
There wasn’t a single person who didn’t know the name Demon Lord since it was a name that was just too famous.
The list of deeds that had been accomplished by this Demon Lord could stretch out across an entire planet. That was just how famous he was!
Or rather, that was just how infamous he was!
Because of the bounty that had been placed on his head, there were still people that had tried to capture him even knowing how dangerous he was. However, even with the number of people that had gone after him, there hadn’t been a single one who had come back.
In addition to being known as the Demon Lord, he was also known as a god of death. Not only because he killed everyone that came after him, but also because he specialized in using the law of death.
There were many other things that he had done as well that were just too terrifying to describe.
So even if he was a human, there were many people who didn’t treat him as a human.
After his identity had been revealed, the human experts all took a step back.
Even though they had completely outnumbered him, no one dared to act up against him at all.
After all, the Demon Lord was famous for something else other than being cruel. The Demon Lord was known as someone who had an army of beasts under his control.
Even if it seemed like he was outnumbered, he was capable of bringing out an army of beasts at any moment that would completely turn the tides. Not to mention his seven supreme beasts, each one of which could be considered a peak expert in this universe.
No one dared to look down on him even though he was standing there alone.
After his identity had been revealed, the Beast Race and other race experts all looked at Lin Fan with traces of fear in their eyes.
Lin Fan’s identity as the Demon Lord wasn’t just something that was spread among the human race, it was a title that was acknowledged by all the other races as well.
The Beast Race had the deepest impression of Lin Fan since for some reason, Lin Fan always targeted them.
Even though Lin Fan was someone that fought with beasts, he wasn’t working with the Beast Race as everyone thought. In fact, the Beast Race was absolutely terrified of Lin Fan since there was nothing that they had been able to do to stop him.
If they sent beasts after him, the only fate that awaited those beasts were death or being forced into his army. There had never been a third option.
Even when they sent their top experts, those top experts had been pulled into his army.
Two of the seven supreme beasts actually came from top experts of the Beast Race.
Then there were the Myriad Races.
They feared Lin Fan for the same reason as the Beast Race.
They didn’t have as much conflict with Lin Fan as the Beast Race or the human race, but it was impossible for them to avoid coming into contact with someone as all encompassing as Lin Fan. It was inevitable that there would be clashes between them and Lin Fan’s army.
As a result, two of Lin Fan’s seven supreme beasts also came from the Myriad Races.
Respectively, they were from the Dragon Race and the Phoenix Race.
In short, no one here had a good relationship with Lin Fan.
The moment that his identity was exposed, even the human race experts that had tried to pull him into their group at first immediately moved far away from him.
Lin Fan was just left standing there in the middle of this area all by himself with everyone looking at him with wary gazes. It was as if he had suddenly become an attraction in the zoo.
But Lin Fan himself didn’t mind this at all since he was already used to this kind of treatment.
His eyes had been on the Beast Race experts the entire time, never leaving them from the moment that he arrived.
However, different from when the other experts arrived, a bit after Lin Fan had arrived, there was a sudden flash of light that filled this place.
Then in front of everyone, there were several figures that appeared.
Lin Fan had been calm during all of this, but it was hard for him to remain calm this time since he saw something that he never expected to see.
Among the figures that had appeared, there was the muscular man who he had met a statue of and the woman in the blue dress that had appeared at the start of the trial. Even though it had been a long time since he had seen either of them, he immediately recognized them when they appeared.
However, it was clear by the way that they looked at him that they didn’t recognize him.
Lin Fan was about to say something, but after a thought passed through his mind, he stopped himself and waited for the leader of the group to say something.
The leader of this group wasn’t the muscular man or the woman in the blue dress, rather it was a man who had bright golden hair who was surrounded in a golden glow. The light around this man was almost so bright that it was hard to stare at him.
Once this group appeared, the little boy who had disappeared after Lin Fan had arrived in this space came out once again.
The little boy flew out and came to Lin Fan’s side before falling to one knee while bowing his head.
As he did so, he said, “Messenger Puck reporting to the lords. I have brought Condition X here and he has agreed to fight with us.”
The group all looked at Lin Fan after hearing this and they had different expressions on their faces.
Some of them had curious looks, some of them had looks of disdain, and some had looks of admiration.
After a while, the golden man who was the leader gave a nod to the little boy before saying, “Good work.”
It was just two simple words, but the moment that the little boy heard this, his face lit up with joy. But of course, he didn’t dare say anything in response to this since he knew that this wasn’t his place to speak.
Once he had finished reporting, his role had been fulfilled and he no longer had a use here.
The little boy gave another bow before disappearing once again.
Once the little boy was gone, the golden man turned to Lin Fan and said, “So, this is the Demon Lord…Not bad, not bad, it seems like it won’t be long before you join us.”
Lin Fan wasn’t surprised by this since he had already heard Puck mention that he had a Divine Seed, but the people that didn’t know were all shocked.
The Demon Lord was about to become a god?
It was clear to everyone present that the only people who could have the kind of aura that this group had were the gods, so this group had to be the gods that had gathered them together.
However, they couldn’t understand why this group had suddenly appeared.
But once they heard what this golden man said, they immediately understood.
They were here for the Demon Lord.
But if the Demon Lord were to become a god, wouldn’t that be the end of the world?
Who would be able to stop him then?
Still, it wasn’t their place to talk, so they could only watch the interaction between the gods and Lin Fan.
Lin Fan didn’t say anything as he waited for the golden man to continue speaking.
After a long pause, the golden man finally said, “We have high expectations of you and if you lead us to victory, we wouldn’t mind helping you become a god faster. It will all depend on your performance.”
“Si!” Everyone took a cold breath when they heard this.
Even the gods had high expectations of the Demon Lord…
Perhaps it was better to let go of all past grudges and try to flatter the Demon Lord before he became a god…Otherwise, who knew what he would do after he became a god?
As this terrifying thought passed through everyone’s minds, they couldn’t help feeling a shiver run down their spines.𝑂𝓋𝓁xt.𝑪𝐎𝕞
But Lin Fan had a completely different reaction compared to them.
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the golden man for a while before suddenly saying, “I’ll pass on that. Being a god sounds nice, but there are too many restrictions, aren’t there? Since that’s the case, there’s no need for you to help me become a god. There’s still other things that I have to take care of first.”
“Si!” Once again everyone took a cold breath.
This Demon Lord, was he crazy?
He should know that these gods were the strongest beings in the universe and he was antagonizing them just like this?
Did he want to die?
But what no one expected was that the golden man suddenly burst out into laughter.
After he finished laughing, the golden man looked back at Lin Fan and said, “It seems like you already have a plan in mind.” But then his eyes suddenly turned sharp and a fierce aura filled the air.
It was like being hit in the face with a bunch of knives that left scars all over their skins when this aura hit them.
The golden man said in a sharp voice, “Whatever your plans are, I hope that you will keep moderation in your mind.”
