Chapter 36

From the beginning, Chen Luoyang had also suspected that Helian Zhe was the Left Sage King’s descendant too. However, after checking through the information on the Left Sage King and reading his life experiences, Chen Luoyang found out about Left Sage King’s homosexuality.

The information stated that Xiuzhe accepted Helian Zhe as one of the Ten Gallants three years ago. The relationship between the two of them was far more intimate than a master and servant’s.

This was only one simple sentence on Xiuzhe’s information, but Chen Luoyang hadn’t seen any other implication.

Is Helian Zhe simply a male pet and toy for the Left Sage King Xiuzhe? Or did Xiuzhe invest more emotions into Helian Zhe?

Looking at Helian Zhe’s Black Death Divine Pearl and his arbitrary decision to attack the Demon Cult with it, Chen Luoyang felt that it wasn’t really accurate to say that Helian Zhe was simply Xiuzhe’s male pet.

Seeing how Xiuzhe attached importance to Helian Zhe and the latter’s style of work, it meant that Helian Zhe wasn’t trembling with fear and wasn’t cautious as he followed Xiuzje. Helian Zhe was more like a “concubine” that was trying to flatter and gain his King’s favor.

Chen Luoyang didn’t know how to describe it, and he felt that it might not be appropriate to use this example. He felt that Helian Zhe had activated the Black Death Divine Pearl to attack the Demon Cult because Helian Zhe had suffered some grievance at his in-laws’ place and wanted to prove himself as the mistress.

Perhaps his relationship with Xiuzhe was good enough to be defined as “lovers”?

Because of this conjecture in his heart, Chen Luoyang instructed Xiao Yuntian to capture Helian Zhe alive.

Zhang Tianheng twitched his mouth as he said, “That kid is a rather stubborn one as torture didn’t work. However, his mental state had such a huge flaw, and I just did a slight roundabout, and he took the bait.

“Before this, he was all mysterious, and there was seldom any information that was revealed. I guessed that he had some secret ability that could not be made known. From the looks of it, he does have something unique.” Zhang Tianheng shook his head and said with a face full of scorn, “As compared to other places in the Grand Divine Province, the Other Tribe is a place where they worshiped the strong individuals as kings and looked at a person’s true strength. This kid slept his way into the Left Sage King’s Ten Gallants, and those who knew the truth would certainly look down on him. In order to prove his worth, he placed all his hopes on the Black Death Divine Pearl.”

When mentioning the Black Death Divine Pearl, Zhang Tianheng’s expression wasn’t pleasant either.

Is it disagreeable due to the difference between orderly evil and chaotic evil, or perhaps it is simply because of the pure destruction…?

Chen Luoyang was rolling his eyes in his heart.

In fact, the Other Tribe’s Left Sage King could not be considered chaotically evil. However, the existence of the Edict of Black Death was truly rather inhuman.

Chen Luoyang withdrew from the wild thoughts in his mind and said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter what kind of relationship that person has with Xiuzhe. It will not change anything. This Seat has already invited Xiuzhe to the Thousand Tides Mountain for a battle. Bring that kid along too, and just take it as This Seat being benevolent and giving Xiuzhe someone to bury along with him.”

Zhang Tianheng and Xiao Yuntian replied respectfully at the same time, “We shall comply with Cult Master’s orders.”

After they left, Chen Luoyang let out a slight sigh of relief.

To be honest, this Helian Zhe isn’t insignificant. He is actually very crucial. With him, my plan will then have a chance to be successful.

Chen Luoyang sat quietly in his throne and lowered his head to see his palms.

If Chen Luoyang didn’t guess wrongly, Helian Zhe was much more important to Left Sage King Xiuzhe than anyone could imagine. If that was the case, it didn’t matter if the Demon Cult killed Helian Zhe or captured him alive, the Left Sage King Xiuzhe would definitely go berserk.

It wasn’t the end when the Dead Sea Black Tide was neutralized; the two parties would certainly have another decisive battle!

The Left Sage King Xiuzhe had been overbearing, and as one of the Three Sovereigns and the Demon Cult Master, Chen Luoyang must not yield. Even if it was a display of arrogance that he didn’t wish to bother about a defeated foe, it still wasn’t convincing enough after Left Sage King’s repeated provocations.

A single Dead Sea Black Tide had flooded thousands of kilometers of the Demon Cult’s territory in the Qian Prefecture. The Demon Cult had to mount a powerful counterattack.

Disregarding the attacks didn’t mean arrogance; it meant the decline of prowess. The culprit of the attack might be Helian Zhe, but his actions didn’t carry much weight.

The only person who had the qualification to enrage the Demon Sovereign and force the Demon Cult to counterattack was the Left Sage King Xiuzhe. As such, Xiuzhe wouldn’t leave the matter like this, and it was a good enough reason for the Demon Cult to attack first. Furthermore, the Demon Cult had to win.

As Chen Luoyang carefully read the information on Xiuzhe that was provided by the black pot, he gradually formed a plan.

The capture of Helian Zhe was just the first step of the plan. Picking a suitable battlefield was the second step.

Thousand Tides Mountain.

Chen Luoyang had studied the map of Qian Prefecture’s geography carefully before picking the location. Right now, he just hoped that everything was just as he expected, that Helian Zhe was indeed holding an extraordinary position in the Left Sage King Xiuzhe’s heart.

Now that he was in possession of Helian Zhe, the bargaining chip, he had the initiative. It would force Left Sage King Xiuzhe to follow Chen Luoyang’s lead.

Even if he guessed wrongly, it wouldn’t matter. If Xiuzhe didn’t come to the Thousand Tides Mountain, the person humiliated wasn’t going to be Chen Luoyang. The Demon Cult would be able to preserve their reputation and could return to the shrine with ease of mind. After all, providing support to the shrine was still the most important objective.

If Xiuzhe did come to the Thousand Tides Mountain, then Chen Luoyang would execute the third step of the plan. The third step was actually the most difficult step.

Only one move…

Chen Luoyang looked at his own two hands.

He let out a long breath and formed fists with his hands. The black radiance emitted from his eyes gradually turned dark gold. Chen Luoyang then slowly closed his eyes and took silent breaths while nursing his body.

The Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage carried him and the Demon Cult members, flying towards their destination.

The Thousand Tides Mountain was located in the southern part of the Qian Prefecture. It was the main peak of a massive mountain range, and it was rather famous among the South Desolate Million Mountains.

It was famous in the Qian Prefecture mainly due to the fact that the Thousand Tides Mountain was an extremely rare volcano that would erupt with dazzling coal-seam fire.

When the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage arrived above the Thousand Tides Mountain, it was already possible to see the thick smoke that was rising from the peak of the mountain. The scarlet coal-seam fire was erupting from the crater of the volcano.

“Cult Master, do we land?” Vajra asked.

“Land beside the crater,” Chen Luoyang instructed.

As the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage rose up, it arrived beside the crater of the Thousand Tides Mountain and stopped in midair. An intense and blazing aura was constantly rushing up from below.

“This place is indeed suitable to bury the Left Sage King Xiuzhe.” Elder Mingjing looked at the crater of the volcano below and said, “The coal-seam fire will be able to eliminate the Black Death Evil Force. That way, the aftermath wouldn’t endanger the surroundings.”

Putting aside how to accomplish it, if the Left Sage King Xiuzhe perished, the black death poison that would burst out of his body would be much stronger than the Dead Sea Black Tide.

“It is a pity that this coal-seam fire isn’t able to restrain Xiuzhe’s Edict of Black Death when he is still living,” Shangguan Song stated.

“What nonsense! What is our Cult Master’s cultivation? Does he even need to make use of the terrain advantage?” Zhang Tianheng snorted disdainfully.

“I am just afraid those Other Tribesmen wouldn’t dare to come.” Vajra chuckled and said, “They only dared to launch sneak attacks on us. How would they dare to confront the Cult Master directly?”

Just as Vajra was speaking, Xiao Yuntian yelled out, “They are here!”

Everyone looked over together and saw a sudden appearance of dark clouds on the horizon.
