Chapter 718 - 712: Let Them See Who the True Royal Family Is!

Chapter 718: Chapter 712: Let Them See Who the True Royal Family Is!

News of Lin You becoming a high-level member of the Demon Race spread like a hurricane, causing a stir among all the Lords.

To earn the title of Demon King within the Demon Race, one must at least reach a Tier Thirteen Lord, equivalent to the strength of a Level 10 True God.

But the problem is.

When Lin You was being chased before, he was only at Tier Twelve.

How much time has passed, and he’s already reached such an astonishing level?

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.

Moreover, behind him was an army of Demons, outnumbering all their species combined!

"It looks like there might be a mixed battle coming next."

On the side of the Demon Race, the Dragon Emperor beside Lin You whispered.

In just about an hour, so many Lords above Tier Twelve had already arrived, and once the Divine Hall of Origin officially opens, the numbers were likely to increase.

Also, these Lords were smart, not confronting them directly, keeping their distance—even if they wanted to attack, the other side would be prepared.

"Wait until the main force of the Demon Race comes, lest we face a Celestial God-level from the other side, which would be tough to handle." Lin You’s eyes were solemn, scanning the increasing number of distant Lords.

He wouldn’t let these Lords obtain the Main God’s Position today, especially the Divine Children within the Divine Kingdom.

As if responding to his words, beast roars suddenly echoed from the depths of the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm.

A huge shadow rapidly approached, led by three strong presences, swiftly reaching the rear of the Demon army.

"That’s... the three deputies under the Nine-headed Flood Dragon!"

The Lords’ faces changed dramatically, immediately recognizing the identities of those three presences.

"Yes, it’s them! The three Tier Fourteen Leader Demons under Jiu Ying!"

"Blood Demon Ancestor, Six-headed King Flood Dragon, Master of Ghosts—all of them are here!"

The Lords knew some of Jiu Ying’s subordinates very well from years of interaction, so it was natural for them to easily recognize the three deputies.

Tier Fourteen Leader Demons, their power comparable to Level 5 Celestial Gods with Royal Species, were supreme beings even within the Divine Kingdom.

Each deputy generally commands countless Tier Fourteen Leader Demons and Elite Demons, definitely the strongest forces under Jiu Ying—ordinary Lords would not dare provoke them.

Now with the three deputies, it’s clear they came at Jiu Ying’s command!

"Such arrogance, do they really think we have no one in the Divine Realm?"

Just then, a voice full of sarcasm sounded.

A mighty team appeared in the sky behind the Lords, and amidst hundreds of True Gods, three tall and straight youths descended like deities before the Demon army.

Beside them, two figures with strength not much weaker than the three deputies stood directly in the air without relying on Flying Species.

"Celestial God-level!"

"And the Divine Children are here too!"

A burst of exclamations erupted from the crowd.

The Demon army also fell into temporary chaos.

Ultimately, it was the leading Six-headed King Flood Dragon who roared, suppressing the chaos, then all six heads locked onto the two Celestial Gods.

"You alone are not our match."

"What if we add ourselves?"

Suddenly, another loud voice sounded.

In another direction, a man with a large sword broke through the space, appearing with a team close behind.

Another Celestial God!

Within the Demon army, Lin You was secretly startled, the arrival of the Divine Hall of Origin unexpectedly attracted so many Celestial God-level beings.

Even four Divine Children came all at once.

Though he didn’t recognize any of them, he could discern their levels—all were Level 10 True Gods.

Additionally, with their strength and status, they could elevate to Celestial God-level at any time.

Clearly, they were aiming for the Main God’s Position.

Based on the information he received, the difficulty of the Divine Trial inside the Divine Hall of Origin depended on the levels of the participants.

The higher the level, the more terrifying the difficulty.

Thus, many Divine Children chose to stay temporarily at the True God level to increase their chances of passing the trial.

This is why almost all Divine Children remained at Level 10 True God.

When the Divine Children beside the man appeared, more chaos erupted in the crowd.

"Situ Sheng! He’s here too!"

"Situ Sheng? The Main God’s illegitimate child?"

"That’s him, it’s said he received the support of two Celestial Kings, making him a top contender for the Main God’s Position, and his strength is formidable—already possessing five Royal Species at the True God level."

"Five Royal Species!?"

The Lords were amazed, unable to believe the cold and proud figure in the air.

For these ordinary Lords, even one Royal Species was a luxury.

Five Royal Species—what does that entail? They couldn’t even imagine.

No wonder he’s a top contender for the Main God’s Position.

Little did they know.

Their exclamations also surprised Lin You.

Not because of the opponent’s strength, but because of his name and identity.

Situ Sheng, the Main God’s illegitimate child...

Turns out the Main God of the Ten Thousand Realms also carries the surname Situ?

Vaguely, he seemed to guess something, yet was uncertain, his expression constantly changing.

And the appearance of the three Celestial Gods made the three deputies tense, forcing them to retract their original plan to act.

After all, their orders were merely to guard the Divine Hall of Origin, preventing Lords from entering—not initiating combat, as dragging on only served their interests.

Very soon.

Another half day passed.

The Demons and Lords gathered around the descent site grew more numerous, practically covering the entire surrounding wilderness.

Apart from the three deputy generals and three Celestial Gods, several Tier Fourteen Leader Demons and Celestial God-level Lords arrived later.

But none were able to completely overpower the other side, so no one dared to act recklessly.

The atmosphere around grew increasingly tense.

"Jiu Ying, Niu Fei, do you really want to stop us today?"

High above at ten thousand meters, several figures stood in mid-air, confronting each other from afar beside the glowing sunset.

Niu Fei had just rushed over from the depths of the Demon Realm.

At this moment, his power had recovered to Tier Fourteen level, no weaker than Jiu Ying.

Opposite them, several elders, seemingly merged with the heavens and earth, stood in mid-air with piercing gazes.

If someone from the Divine Kingdom were here, they would surely recognize their identity at a glance.

They were the High-level Celestial Gods from the Peak of the Gods!

However.

Even though they outnumbered Jiu Ying and Niu Fei, they dared not act hastily.

Because their highest level was only Level 8, facing Level 10 Celestial Gods like Jiu Ying and Niu Fei, they had no chance of winning.

Unless the Seven Great Celestial Kings arrived.

But even if that happened, it wouldn’t change the fact that this territory belonged to the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm!

Thinking of the terrifying creature ruling the entire Eastern Extreme Demon Realm inside, the Celestial Gods shuddered and dared not act rashly.

Yet they were unwilling to abandon the Divine Hall of Origin without a fight.

"Let’s do this, I won’t make things difficult for you."

Finally, Niu Fei on the opposite side spoke.

"Neither side will use Tier Fourteen or higher power. As long as your True God team can break through the defense of our Demon King Army under my command, I’ll let you pass."

"Is this true?"

An elder opposite raised his brows, showing an expression of disbelief.

Jiu Ying seemed to have anticipated Niu Fei’s intention, snorting: "Rest assured, our Demon Race isn’t like your Lords, saying one thing and doing another."

There were many Celestial Gods present, and if a fight broke out, only the Lords and Demons below would suffer losses, which was unwise.

Moreover, they didn’t want to disturb the Demon Lord over such a minor matter.

This was also what the Celestial Gods were thinking. At their level, battles were devastating; avoiding them was for the best.

Exchanging a glance, they immediately said: "Alright, we’ll do as you suggested, just don’t go back on your word later, we’re leaving!"

At the command, all Celestial Gods received the message and withdrew to the rear.

Niu Fei and Jiu Ying smiled slyly, shouted at the ground, and gradually retreated with the Tier Fourteen Demons.

In the blink of an eye, the battlefield was left with only the Demon King Army and the True God team, along with some courageous Tier Twelve individuals.

"Does this mean they want us to settle this ourselves?"

A dozen Divine Children gathered, seemingly unsurprised by the outcome.

Or rather, they didn’t think their side was weaker than the Demon King’s Army.

After all, each of them possessed the strength equivalent to Lord Demons.

Plus the Royal Species matching their power; Situ Sheng alone could equal six Lord Demons. With what could the Demon King Army compete?

"The mere Demon King Army dares to block us, it’s laughable," said a towering Demon-type Divine Child with disdain.

"And that Lower Realm Lord, I heard that Fu Hong suffered a loss at his hands?"

"It should be him. Anyone who can make Fu Hong suffer must have some skill."

"He probably has some formidable tricks; we should be careful."

Fu Hong they mentioned is the Divine Child from the Pantheon who previously clashed with Lin You.

Though they said to be cautious, few showed serious expressions.

Fu Hong, while not weak among the Divine Children, wasn’t too strong either, possessing merely a supportive Royal Species, weaker in combat compared to them.

Only two people remained expressionless throughout, their gaze secretly assessing Lin You at the front of the Demon King Army.

They were Situ Sheng and another cold, charming woman.

Despite the efforts of the Pantheon and Godslaying Alliance to conceal it, they had discovered some clues.

The lost World Core of the Main God World was very likely in the possession of this Lower Realm Lord!

If they could obtain both the World Core and the Main God’s Position, they’d surely overpower other Divine Children and become the highest rulers of the Divine Kingdom.

"Attack!"

Suddenly, the voices of several High-level Celestial Gods echoed in the sky.

The Divine Realm side finally sounded the charge, shaking the hearts of all Lords.

"Charge!!"

"Drive them out of the Divine Hall of Origin!"

Amidst the angry shouts, the Lords summoned their species, forming a black torrent on the battlefield, rushing toward the Demon King Army.

The leading Divine Children summoned Royal Species, charging at the Lord Demons ahead.

Situ Sheng and that cold-eyed woman directly targeted Lin You, launching an assault against him.

"I sense the aura of the Royal Family from them."

Lingxi beside Lin You focused, silently watching the approaching species at the front.

The other royals’ presence intensified, surging with fierce battle intent.

"Go, show them who the real Royal Family is!"
