Chapter 826 No One is a Fool
On top of Mount An, next to the Bodhi tree.
Zhuge Laodeng was pierced through the chest by a golden divine feather and was nailed to the trunk of his own body.
Its old face was full of pain, its beard was stained with blood, its brows were furious, and it looked extremely angry.
"Bodhi is originally bright and pure, why should it be stained with blood..."
Li Yuan stood with his hands behind his back on the top of Anshan Mountain, overlooking the prosperous Anyue and the tens of millions of ordinary people below the mountain, with undisguised mockery in his eyes.
"Demon Emperor, what you have done is unacceptable to the common people. God will... settle accounts with you sooner or later."
Although Zhuge Laodeng was nailed to the trunk of the tree, he still used his body to block the souls sleeping under the Bodhi tree. Those were the souls of his relatives, friends and disciples who had sacrificed in the disaster and were found by Li Yuan.
Li Yuan standing on the top of the mountain had a weird look on his face, with a sneer on his lips, revealing his evil nature. He did not have any of Li Yuan's gentle and indifferent temperament at all.
"Reckoning? Even Primal Chaos cannot settle accounts with Dao Zun, how can the heavens of the three realms stop this emperor?"
"You are just a small earthly immortal, as insignificant as an ant, what can you understand?"
Looking at Zhuge Laodeng, who was covered in blood, and the many practitioners who were suppressed by him halfway up the mountain, a glimmer of pleasure of revenge flashed in the Demon Emperor's eyes.
If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to impersonate Li Yuan and successfully mobilize Anshan's troops stationed in other territories, the Demon Emperor would have killed all of them long ago, making the Anshan territory stained with blood.
Looking at the arrogant appearance of the Demon Emperor, Zhuge Laodeng's beard trembled, but his eyes were firm:
"Perhaps, all living creatures are indeed nothing but ants and grass in the eyes of you guys..."
"But Demon Emperor, don't forget..."
Zhuge Laodeng glared at the Demon Emperor. Even though there was a huge difference in strength between them and even though his life depended on the other party's thoughts, he, with his honest and simple character, still had the courage to rebuke and question him.
"This world is made up of billions of ants! Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Those who overthrow the common people will eventually be punished by the common people!"
Whoosh-!
A golden golden-winged Roc divine feather pierced through Zhuge Laodeng's thigh and even cut off many roots of the Bodhi tree.
Zhuge Laodeng groaned, his blood and energy surged in his body, his magic power became disordered, and both his real body and the human form he created suffered heavy damage.
The Demon Emperor sneered indifferently: "If I didn't think the Bodhi tree had some value, I would have killed you long ago based on your words."
"Put away those righteous words of yours. This world is a world where the strong prey on the weak... Be it Li Yuan, the Heavenly Demon, or even the resurrected Human Emperor, they will have to fight me with all their might. The winner will live and the loser will die, that's all! Even they don't have the qualifications to insult me. You, a little tree spirit, are so ignorant and arrogant!"
"Even if my origin has been severely damaged and my strength has been greatly reduced, you ants cannot make irresponsible remarks!"
Zhuge Laodeng was dying, with blood staining his chest and thighs.
But it still snorted softly and looked at the Demon Emperor with a firm look: "The reckoning will come, Demon Emperor, sooner or later you will be avenged by the common people, I firmly believe in this..."
"ignorance."
The Demon Emperor glanced at him with disdain, and with a wave of his hand, his demonic energy suddenly sealed Zhuge Laodeng's mouth, preventing him from listening to the chatter of this little earth immortal.
Afterwards, it controlled an Anshan cultivator who was suppressed halfway up the mountain, cast space magic, and issued orders to the armies of the other three territories, requiring them to return to defend the Anshan territory as soon as possible.
As soon as these armies come back, billions of creatures in the east and south of the human world will lose their ability to defend themselves, leaving only unarmed mortal creatures to be devoured by the Demon Emperor!
"The cause and effect of this Anshan world is too complicated, even this emperor cannot see clearly. It is better not to touch the ant blood food here..."
The Demon Emperor is not those top powerful beings. His vision and methods are more brilliant. With the status of Dao Zun, he can see through some secrets hidden behind the Anshan Realm. Regarding some lingering obscure aura, the Demon Emperor hesitated again and again, but chose to be conservative and not take action against the Anshan Realm.
There was a hint of the Heavenly Emperor's aura lingering in the mountain, there was a lingering aura of the first Human Emperor left in the mountain... These terrifying auras that even the Dao Master felt threatened were only slightly sensed by the Demon Emperor after he came to Anshan in person, and he felt a strong fear in his heart.
It really wants to return to the realm of Dao Zun, but it doesn't want to bring itself a powerful enemy.
A large army rushed back from the mountain, but they were not the main forces from the east and south. The north remained unmoved, allowing the Demon Emperor to pretend to be Li Yuan to issue orders, and the Buddhist sect did not respond at all.
This was something that Li Yuan had agreed with Chen Xuan long ago. The Buddhist sect only needed to guard the northern land and must not act rashly. Chen Xuan noticed the abnormality of Anshan's sudden and urgent order. After all, he had deduced that Li Yuan was fighting a war outside, so this order was obviously problematic!
The beast in charge of the Eastern army had been tricked by the Demon Emperor into going to the place where Li Yuan fought a great battle. Unfortunately, this guy was also very cautious, and the Eastern army of creatures never came back.
The army of practitioners guarding the south has recently returned in groups of two or three, but they are closely connected with the Anyue Palace, making the Demon Emperor even more angry.
Because this cautious action has already shown the other party's suspicious attitude.
At the foot of Anshan Mountain, some Anyue practitioners had even begun patrolling back and forth, reminding the people not to go up the mountain for the time being.
In this regard, the Demon Emperor could only contact those demons remotely and take this opportunity to devour as many living creatures as he could. He still stayed in Anshan pretending to be Li Yuan, buying time for those demons to devour their blood.
The blood and energy devoured by those demons will eventually be absorbed by the Demon Emperor, but in the current situation... the more vigilant the armies in the east and south are, the less benefit the Demon Emperor can gain. How can he not be angry!
"You're dragging your feet and refusing to reply... It seems that Li Yuan's prestige in your hearts is not very high."
"Who did you send to guard the south? You clearly guessed that something was wrong, but you still dared to send someone to investigate. You are really brave!"
The Demon Emperor sneered, filled with displeasure, as he watched a small team of southern practitioners begin to climb the mountain to investigate the situation.
On the top of the mountain, many Anshan creatures were suppressed, and the river spirits of the Khan River were also suppressed here. Zhuge Laodeng's mouth was sealed and he could not speak, but he snorted angrily:
"There are countless lives that need to be protected. It is suspicious to withdraw troops in a hurry to defend. We are all living beings who practice cultivation. No one is a fool! You, the demon emperor, are narrow-minded and eager for quick success. Are we, the people of Anshan, as stupid as you?"
The Demon Emperor turned his head, smiled coldly, and crushed the body of the Hanhe River Spirit in mid-air: "I am asking you, who is helping you guard the south... Is it the gods in heaven, or the underworld?"
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air, as if a spear was piercing the sky.
The Demon Emperor turned around calmly and blew lightly. Suddenly, a powerful wind blew up, destroying everything.
A spear made of black iron was blown into pieces by the evil wind, but a calm and steady voice came from the foot of the mountain.
"He is neither a god from heaven nor a ghost from the underworld. He is just a handsome and promising young man."
