Chapter 733 - 665: The Demon Kings Die in Succession

Chapter 733: Chapter 665: The Demon Kings Die in Succession

Four of the Demon Kings from the Twelve Great Races were now dead. Four Demon Kings, killed consecutively in a single day. The scale of the loss was staggering.

It was as if ancient emperors were dropping dead one after another, their deaths utterly worthless.

From the Poison Flower Demon Monarch, the Hundred Eyed Demon King, and the Bat King at the very beginning, to the Saint Peng King just now, they had fallen one after another. The impact on the race army was nothing short of devastating.

The race army, which was supposed to be an overwhelming force, a veritable tidal wave of beasts, hadn’t even managed to break through the gates of the Snake Palace.

This wasn’t how the script was supposed to go at all. The main forces of the race army were completely tied down; even the Gray Demon King was entangled with a Skeleton Snake that was none other than the Deep Mountain Demon King.

It had to be said, the King of the Snake Clan had far too many trump cards up his sleeve, each one redefining the meaning of monstrously overpowered.

On the main battlefield, morale had hit rock bottom. Six of the Demon Kings, in particular, were in a miserable state, hiding amongst their own troops. But the heaven-defying Divine Ape still wouldn’t let them go.

Xiangya Demon King of the Giant Elephant Lineage couldn’t bear the humiliation any longer. His savage nature flared, and he underwent a Transformation, becoming a towering giant elephant that soared into the sky to battle the Six-Eared Macaque.

But in less than ten rounds, the Divine Ape blasted him apart with a single punch, and his Demon King Golden Core floated out into the open.

Meanwhile, the Hundred Birds Lineage had recognized the Immortal Spirit Peacock as their king and risen in rebellion. The avian experts immediately broke away from the race army’s control and turned to help the Snake Race with their defense.

The tides of battle had turned. The allied Hundred Bird Race had become the enemy. The fierce birds, each one a powerful combatant, showed no mercy to their former allies.

The Immortal Spirit Peacock, glowing with a nine-colored Divine Light, and the Divine Beast White Tiger were like a legendary heroic duo, completely unstoppable.

’Could Golden Pupils have a crush on Azure Owl?’

The thought surfaced in Tu Xiao’an’s mind. Golden Pupils was just too good to Azure Owl, acting completely obedient and doting. Where was the majesty of a Divine Beast White Tiger?

’A union between a cat and a bird? Or a peacock and a white tiger?’

Neither combination seemed to make any sense, and Tu Xiao’an couldn’t help but feel a little sour.

It was the uncomfortable feeling of having something precious poached right from under his nose.

Although Azure Owl was his Battle Companion, Tu Xiao’an had raised her like a princess. What if she was successfully wooed by his own ’cat’?

Should he approve or not?

’...’ ’I’m overthinking this.’

Letting his mind wander at a time like this was probably inappropriate.

The remaining five Demon Kings retreated step by step, their eyes filled with horror. Seeing how drastically the situation had changed, Deer Power Demon King of the White Deer Race wore a complex expression. Utterly helpless, he raised a white flag and shouted to the sky, "Snake Demon King! The White Deer Race hereby declares its withdrawal from the race army! Call off that Divine Ape!"

Hearing this, Tu Xiao’an was pleasantly surprised. ’Hmph. So there’s one who’s afraid to die after all.’

The deaths of several key Demon Kings had finally struck fear into their hearts.

Elsewhere, the Yellow Demon King’s expression changed drastically. He roared, "White Deer King, what are you talking about? Are you trying to betray the race army? I will not spare you!"

Facing the Yellow Demon King’s fury, the White Deer King trembled, so pressured he felt like crying. He said, "Yellow Demon King, the race army won’t miss my White Deer Lineage. Please, just let me go."

"If you dare to withdraw, I will kill you on the spot!" The Yellow Demon King’s Demon Qi surged, and a mountain of Killing Intent bore down on the White Deer King.

This wasn’t just a matter of whether the White Deer Lineage withdrew or not. With several Demon Kings already dead and the Hundred Birds Lineage’s desertion, the situation was already precarious. If the White Deer Lineage also pulled out, then the other races would scramble to do the same.

At that rate, the race army would collapse and be utterly routed.

The Yellow Demon King had never imagined that this unprecedented, supposedly one-sided war would inexplicably evolve into such an awkward stalemate.

It was even starting to look like a fifty-fifty fight.

"The Weasel is right. White Deer King, thinking you can just withdraw now is a bit naive."

The one who spoke was none other than Tu Xiao’an. He looked at the White Deer King and said, "Since you’ve already waded into these muddy waters, you can’t expect to escape unscathed."

The White Deer King was speechless.

’I want to retreat, and you of the Snake Race won’t let me? Are you insane?’

The Yellow Demon King was also speechless.

’Has this snake gone mad?’

’He’s actually agreeing with me.’

Tu Xiao’an spoke, his voice calm and flat. "White Deer King, you have only one choice now: pledge your allegiance to my Snake Race. If you do, I will guarantee your survival."

At his words, both the White Deer King and the Yellow Demon King were stunned.

"Six-Eared Macaque." Tu Xiao’an glanced at the Divine Ape. It had the sharp-featured face of a monkey on a human’s body, and its ferocious aura was overwhelming. A terrifying, boundless power erupted from it. With a surge of potent Qi, it shot toward the Yellow Demon King.

"Insolent! Do you take me for one of those weaklings?"

The Yellow Demon King hadn’t expected the Divine Ape to lock onto him as its target. Enraged, he hastily counterattacked.

RUMBLE... RUMBLE... In an instant, the world was turned upside down.

Suddenly, Tu Xiao’an appeared like an Ancient War God descending upon the world. A brilliant light burst from his body. As an absolute pressure washed over the battlefield, the grass, flowers, and trees seemed to freeze in place. Time itself felt as if it had stopped in that instant.

The White Deer King was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but then an incomparably powerful pressure enveloped him.

"Pledge your allegiance to my Snake Race, or I will kill you right now."

The White Deer King was dumbstruck, finding it hard to believe. He couldn’t even move his body.

’The Snake Demon King is this powerful?’

’He can immobilize a Demon King just like that?’

"White Deer King, you only get one chance. If you don’t nod your head, this Snake King will be taking your Demon King Golden Core."

The situation was now much more favorable for the Snake Race.

A struggle was evident on the White Deer King’s face. Just withdrawing from the race army was already a great dishonor. If he now turned around and helped the Snake Race fight the army, wouldn’t that make him a despicable turncoat?
