Chapter 222 - 222 There Is Really Nothing Left

222 There Is Really Nothing Left

The atmosphere in the Demon Capital froze again.

At this moment, the Holy Son of the Demon Clan had his back to everyone on the ground. No one could see the expression on his face clearly, but Mo Lianque and the others could imagine how exciting this Holy Son’s expression must be!

If they already felt this way, then what more those who were more invested in the situation.

The surroundings were almost completely silent. The 200-foot-tall grizzly bear opened its mouth and spat out two thick breaths. It stared blankly at the figure of the Demon Clan’s Holy Son and finally spoke.

“You… are you a human or a demon?!”

“Ah, pfft, no! Are you a human or a flood dragon?”

Furious shouts sounded throughout the entire area.

At this time, many powerful demon beasts were no longer just suspicious. Instead, they gradually became very angry. One moment, it was a human; and the next moment, it was a flood dragon. Previously, he had even issued a prohibition order to drive away all the humans and flood dragons in the city…

Was he toying with all of them?

“I… this…”

The expression on the Holy Son’s face was also incredibly exciting.

Originally, he had expected that even if that fellow Jiao Jiao returned and hid in the Demon Capital, he would definitely not dare to appear in public, let alone launch an attack.

As for the remaining magical power in his body, he was not worried at all.

Even though he did not directly remove it, he had already used the power of his true form to suppress it and make it submit to him. It was impossible for it to create any huge issue.

Who would have thought…

There was no huge issue, but there was still a small one.

Furthermore, it was precisely this small issue that caused a thousand enormous waves to rise up. In an instant, it pushed him into the center of the storm and placed him under the siege of numerous formidable demon beasts!

“He left more than just a trace of power in my body?”

The Holy Son’s expression became more and more unhappy. He activated his soul power crazily and looked into his own body. He scanned every inch of his body. Very quickly, he found three remnant traces of powers and wiped them out one by one.

After doing all this, the Holy Son heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, the aura on his body suddenly changed. This time, it changed from the East Sea Flood Dragon Clan to that of an Ice Field Snow Phoenix!

“If you want an explanation, I can only give that to you.” His voice was very cold as he said slowly, “This is a unique secret technique that can change one’s aura and even imitate different races. I’ve only just started cultivating this secret technique, so it’s difficult to control it perfectly.”

Feeling the cold aura that was like 10,000 years worth of ice, the demon beasts finally showed some hesitant looks.

After all, if the Holy Son only revealed the aura of the human race, it meant that he was very likely a human in disguise.

They would never allow such a thing to happen.

However, if the auras of the second, third… or even more different races were revealed, then their suspicions would naturally be reduced to the lowest.

“Is this explanation enough for you?”

The Demon Clan’s Holy Son said coldly.

The grizzly bear that attacked first hesitated for a long time before letting out a low roar and slowly retreating. “So it’s due to Your Highness the Holy Son cultivating a secret technique. Then we’ve indeed offended you.”

A large cloud of dust rose from the grizzly bear’s feet. In the blink of an eye, it had completely disappeared.

There was only a bottomless pit left on the spot.

“So we see. Since it’s just a misunderstanding, we won’t disturb you anymore.”

“Your Highness’s achievements will last for thousands of years. We’ve offended you and we’ll apologize to you the next time we meet.”

One demon beast after another disappeared.

Some fled underground, while others soared into the sky and disappeared into the horizon.

In just a few moments, the many aggressive demon beasts had left cleanly, leaving behind a mess of remains that served as a reminder of everything that had just happened.

Among the people who left… There was naturally Feng Xia’s group as well.

“Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to do it a third time.”

After reappearing, they came to a tavern and found a quiet corner. This tavern was decorated in the style of the human race.

Of course, the owner of the tavern was not a human. However, seeing that the building was quite nice, it occupied it and gradually turned it into a tavern.

Although it was called a tavern, apart from selling drinks, it was more like a large-scale trading market.

There were only three basic trading rules—

“Buying OOOO at a high price!”

“Selling YYYY at a high price!”

“Are you going to do it?” “Yes!”

Feng Xia and the others did not deliberately conceal themselves, but they did not attract attention to themselves either. After sitting down, Feng Xia let out a long sigh. “That guy is vigilant enough. I had scattered a few traces of power throughout his body, but in the end, he removed them all at once.”

Coupled with the final response of the Demon Clan’s Holy Son, he was sure that he could not use the same method on the other party again.

Mo Lianque stared at him suspiciously. “Is there really nothing left?”

Feng Xia coughed and said in a low voice, “There’s indeed nothing left in his body, but I left some traces on his clothes and weapons just in case. I wonder when that guy will find out?”

Mo Lianque’s hair stood on end!

It was too terrifying…

Making an enemy of someone like Feng Xia was simply a huge nightmare!

“Latest news! Latest news—”

At this moment, a sharp scream suddenly came from outside the tavern.

That same vulture from earlier flapped its wings and flew over the Demon Capital. At the same time, it brought the latest news from the Demon Divine Palace. “His Highness the Holy Son has decreed that the previous prohibition order is temporarily withdrawn. The humans and flood dragons can still enter the city!”

Soon, the vulture flew away. Feng Xia clapped his hands in satisfaction and said with a chuckle, “It seems that this Holy Son of the Demon Clan still cares a lot about the people’s wishes.”

The others also heaved a sigh of relief. No matter what, now that the ban had been lifted, they could move around freely in the city. They did not have to be as nervous as before, afraid of being caught wherever they went!

“As expected of Feng…” Mo Lianque paused for a moment before correcting himself. “As expected of fellow practitioner Xia Donghai. This scheme has really broadened our horizons.”

“Yes yes meow!” Qing Lin nodded her little head.

“…” Long Da was already so regretful that he could not speak.

“Then, next…” Zhu Youniang still addressed him the same way. She hugged Feng Xia’s arm tightly before leaning close to his face and asking, “Xia, are you planning to use this identity to enter the Demon Imperial Tombs with us?”

To the young girl, nothing else was as important as this matter.

“You’re right.” Feng Xia nodded slightly and smiled. “Our goal is not to simply explore the Demon Imperial Tombs. Therefore, we have to gather our strength as much as possible…”

“Fellow practitioner Xia, you might be overthinking this.”

Halfway through his sentence, Mo Lianque could not help but interrupt, “As far as I know, once we enter the Demon Imperial Tombs, everyone will be randomly separated. Even if we enter together at the beginning, we will be scattered to different areas.”

“Ah, I have an idea!”

Under everyone’s gazes, Zhu Youniang suddenly jumped up. The young girl tidied her hair and gently bent down to Feng Xia’s mouth.

Feng Xia’s eyes widened.

The others also widened their eyes.
