Chapter 2457 - 2462: Crown Prince of the Demon Domain, Second Only to One and Above Millions

Chapter 2457: Chapter 2462: Crown Prince of the Demon Domain, Second Only to One and Above Millions

As soon as Xia Liu emerged from the Primordial Demon Tower, he instantly became locked onto by a massive demon consciousness.

This demon consciousness came from the Demon Mother.

Subsequently, numerous demon cultivators also turned their gaze towards him.

Xia Liu wasn’t the first cultivator to leave the Demon Tower.

However, his appearance was of great significance!

Because he had completely demolished all the elite demon powerhouses of Ye King’s palace!

The demon lords from Ye King’s palace who emerged months earlier had no demon bodies, only demon infants.

This caused everyone present to tremble uncontrollably.

They couldn’t fathom what these people had endured inside the Demon Tower, to end up in such a tragic plight.

After all, they were all seventh-tier demon lords!

Such strong individuals were considered formidable existences outside the Demon God Kingdom.

Yet upon entering the Primordial Demon Tower, they couldn’t even bring out their bodies intact.

The terrors therein were evident.

Those strong individuals from Ye King’s palace, who emerged as mere demon infants, all pointed their fingers at one person.

At Xia Liu!

Thus, as soon as Xia Liu appeared, he garnered the attention of all the demon cultivators present.

Daring to challenge Ye King’s palace, Xia Liu was undoubtedly bold.

Not to mention how the Demon Mother might handle this.

How could he possibly pass Ye King’s test?

"Xia Liu, after nearly a year, you finally made it out."

"Has it only been a year..."

Xia Liu calculated secretly.

Couldn’t it be that the Nether King Palace’s Time Law was unimaginably terrifying?

"Based on the time, you should’ve been inside the Primordial Demon Tower for twenty years."

"Huh? Is the time inside the Demon Tower different from the outside world?"

Before Xia Liu could calculate the difference of time between the Nether King Palace within and the outside world, the Demon Mother shattered his fantasy.

"Naturally it’s different."

...

"We’ll discuss this topic later. For now, you must explain to me why you destroyed the demon bodies of those from Ye King’s palace!"

In response to the Demon Mother’s questioning, Xia Liu uttered merely four words.

"Brought it upon themselves."

"Haha! What a ’brought it upon themselves!’ Do you know they were all elite powerhouses of the Demon Domain?"

The moment these words fell, a cold aura emanated from the Demon Mother’s avatar.

Rendering everyone within a hundred-mile radius afraid to breathe.

"So what? They plotted against me step by step; my not killing them already demonstrated mercy!"

Xia Liu didn’t easily instigate trouble, but he was also not afraid.

If the Demon Mother wanted a war today, then so be it!

If she wanted to punish Xia Liu, before entering the Primordial Demon Tower, she might have had a chance.

But now, she didn’t have the qualifications!

"What about Ye King?"

"Demon body, demon infant, soul—all scattered in the void."

Hiss!!!

With a casual remark from Xia Liu.

Directly eliciting sounds of gasping throughout thousands of miles.

Everyone understood that Ye King had fallen!

Completely dead!

Died at Xia Liu’s hand!

"Do you possess the power to slay Ye King?"

"When pushed to the limit, a man can become a Godslayer!"

"What a ’man can become a Godslayer!!!’"

Suddenly, a twist. Just then, the Demon Mother shouted.

A wave of demon essence capable of shattering a ninth-tier demon lord’s body burst forth from a sphere, striking towards Xia Liu!

Intending to take his life and provide an explanation to the myriad demons!

"Universe Void!"

In the moment of life-threatening peril, Xia Liu fused the power of dual nascent souls, instantly elevating his aura to the eighth-tier demon lord at Peak.

Then paired with eternal Supreme Divine Powers.

A technique capable of slaying gods unleashed.

Clashed with the Demon Mother’s fierce attack.

The void directly quaked and revealed ferocious fissures.

The residual force blasted out, destroying the surrounding land.

Within a range of ten thousand miles, all demon cultivators suffered internal injuries, coughing up demon blood.

The aura all waned before Xia Liu.

Looking again at the two involved.

Neither moved an inch.

White robes fluttered, everyone saw in Xia Liu a prideful confidence capable of defying the heavens.

Being able to fend off such a strong attack from the Demon Mother proved he truly had the qualifications to contend with Ye Tiandi.

And to kill him.

"You are qualified!"

After a pause, the Demon Mother suddenly withdrew her demon might, solemnly announcing.

Huh?

The demon cultivators present were somewhat unable to comprehend.

Weren’t the two about to contest to the death? What’s the situation now?

Could it merely be a test?

Isn’t this too far-fetched?

Was the purpose of testing Xia Liu’s pain on everyone present?

"What do you mean?"

Xia Liu was equally perplexed by the Demon Mother’s meaning.

Testing him?

It seemed to be the case.

But was she really not angry?

After all, he had slain two kings of the Demon God Kingdom.

And destroyed many of the elite of the Demon Domain.

As the Master of the Demon Domain, she should surely hate him.

"You possess the power to surpass Ye King, even enough to match me. A prodigy like you emerging from the Demon Domain is far more important than ten Ye Kings, ten Demon Kings."

"Oh, I, Xia, thank the Demon Mother for her appreciation."

Xia Liu politely responded.

"But you must have a reason for killing that convinces everyone present."

"Ye King, is it?"

"Indeed!"

After thinking for a moment, Xia Liu looked towards those Ye King’s palace strong individuals with only demon infants.

"Tell them yourselves the reason I had to kill Ye King."

Upon meeting Xia Liu’s gaze, Ye Jianan was the first to tremble.

His contact with Xia Liu wasn’t brief.

Thus he understood his deep foundation best.

Observing today, they despaired.

Xia Liu possessed strength to rival the Demon Mother!

Additionally, Ye King had fallen.

If he dared utter even a single falsehood.

He’d face eternal damnation.

Xia Liu now held the Demon Mother’s favor, further offending him was unthinkable.

Thump, thump, thump...

A string of weak sounds echoed from distant space.

As the demon infants of Ye King’s palace were seen kneeling in the void.

"Interesting, tell me, what exactly is going on with Ye Tiandi?"

Seeing this situation, the Demon Mother understood.

She was curious about the specifics, perhaps it would amuse her.

"Forgive us, Demon Mother. Long ago, Ye Tiandi attempted rebellion, planning to defeat the Demon Mother to become Master of the Demon Domain. Upon seeing Senior Xia gain the Demon Mother’s favor, Ye Tiandi couldn’t allow another powerhouse to appear beside you, so..."

Representing, Ye Jianan fully disclosed Ye Tiandi’s years of schemes.

After Ye Jianan finished speaking, the surrounding demon cultivators remained silent.

Because Ye Tiandi’s thinking truly dumbfounded others.

He really was daring.

Actually thinking of using Eastern Region power to battle the Demon Mother.

It truly suffocated them.

"Hehe..."

The Demon Mother laughed, Ye Tiandi’s plan genuinely piqued her amusement.

"We beg for the Demon Mother’s forgiveness, we were forced to obey his orders under Ye Tiandi’s threats..."

"Please, Demon Mother, forgive us!"

All of the demon cultivators from Ye King’s palace knelt, continually knocking their heads.

With Ye Tiandi’s death and plan exposure, without forgiveness, there remained only a path to death.

"You all suffered, led by an ignorant leader, until today when you were finally freed."

The Demon Mother’s words seemed to embed needles; Ye King’s palace cultivators dared not move, fearing they’d vanish from the world the next second.

"Since everything is clear, with the Demon God Kingdom and external demon cultivators present, I shall announce something."

The Demon Mother waved her hand, lifting the demon cultivators of Ye King’s palace.

Amidst utter silence, she declared, "You all witnessed Xia Liu’s strength."

"First, he slew the unreasonable Demon King, followed by the traitorous Ye King, possessing strength at the ninth-tier demon lord Peak. Henceforth, he shall be Crown Prince of the Demon Domain, second to none under heavens above millions!"
