Chapter 359: Chapter 191: The Demon Lord Battles the Demon Lord! The War of Imperial Arms, the Shattering of the Galaxy! The Resigned Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing!_2

The Devil Sword Breaking Red Dust had once slurped up the imperial blood of the Heaven Imperial Realm Great Emperors in the Ancient Era. The Great Emperor from the Heavenly Demon Hall once wielded this Devil Sword to slay two Heaven Imperial Realm Great Emperors; countless Quasi Emperors and Saints fell beneath the Devil Sword Breaking Red Dust.

Even after the Ancient Era, the Devil Sword Breaking Red Dust shone brightly again and again, its demonic might terrorizing the Qianyuan Divine Province. Whether it was the civil war within the Human Clan or the great battles with the Demon Clan, the Devil Sword Breaking Red Dust claimed the lives of one after another famed Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperors and powerful beings of the Tongxuan Realm.

“Since you, Demon Lord Dugu Weizun, don’t wish to give this old man an explanation, then this matter falls on the head of your Heavenly Demon Hall.”

Dongfang Qingcang, the ruler of Myriad Demon Mountain, bellowed furiously. His Demon Dao Wheel began to revive, instantly bursting forth with azure light that inundated the sky, eclipsing the sun, as if rebuilding the Nine Heavens.

“Why would I, Dugu Weizun, need to explain my actions to others in my life?”

Dugu Weizun rose to his feet, emitting a fearsome aura that soared into the sky, shaking the Nine Heavens, resonating with the Devil Sword Breaking Red Dust. Demonic and sword energies interwove, tearing through the void, causing the azure-constructed Nine Heavens to tremble and bulge upward.

“If you refuse to be convinced, then let us battle!”

Demon Lord Dugu Weizun’s purple robe fluttered in the wind, his hands folded behind his back, his face a mask of cold indifference. He had no intention of explaining himself.

With Dongfang Qingcang from Myriad Demon Mountain knocking at the door, it was inevitable that the blame would fall on Heavenly Demon Hall. No matter how he explained, it would be useless; he truly had not witnessed it, but Dongfang Qingcang would not believe it.

Besides, why should he explain?

The Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing wasn’t the Demon Emperor of the Devil Region; whether she disappeared or died, it had nothing to do with the Devil Region.

Dongfang Qingcang’s arrival to threaten was tantamount to pushing the Devil Region too far. As the ruler of Heavenly Demon Hall, whether due to his nature or for the sake of Heavenly Demon Hall’s dignity, he would not explain, he would not bow down.

Indeed, Dugu Weizun was also quite interested in assessing the strength of Dongfang Qingcang, the old demon, to see how far he had cultivated over the past few thousand years, and whether he had made further progress.

With the Devil Region right next to the Demon Domain, if Dongfang Qingcang’s strength had greatly increased, it was possible that he might initiate the fourth great war between the Human Clan and Demon Barbarians. When that time came, the Devil Region would be the first to bear the brunt, facing the pressure of the Demon Clan.

“The Demon Lord is still as domineering as ever.”

Inside the Heavenly Demon Hall, a Divine Yuan Realm Demon Emperor clad in a black demonic robe saw this scene, his face flickering with reminiscence, and he murmured excitedly.

When he had abandoned the Buddhist Sect for the path of demons, pursued by several Divine Yuan Realm Arhats from Xumi Mountain, it was Demon Lord Dugu Weizun who saved him.

Even when the Bodhisattva of Xumi Mountain appeared, Dugu Weizun remained undaunted, with only a simple phrase.

“This person, I, Dugu Weizun, will protect. Those who disagree, fight!”

The Bodhisattva of Xumi Mountain and Dugu Weizun fought a great battle, with no one knowing the outcome. Yet, in the end, Dugu Weizun successfully took him back to the Heavenly Demon Hall.

“Come, fight!”

Dongfang Qingcang gave Dugu Weizun a deep look, then soared skyward with his Demon Dao Wheel, entering the space beyond.

“Heh~”

Dugu Weizun sneered as he reached out his hand, and the Devil Sword Breaking Red Dust landed in his grasp. He lightly made a slash.

In that instant, time and space seemed to freeze beneath this stroke of the sword. The Nine Heavens, like a mirror, were shattered by a single slash, the vast azure light vanishing without a trace.

Dugu Weizun ascended into the void, entering the space beyond to engage in fierce battle with Dongfang Qingcang.

As the two powerful beings of the Tongxuan Realm spurred on their respective imperial weapons, a portion of their might was awakened. The starry sky crumbled, countless stars turned to dust, and one galaxy after another fell silent under the might of the emperor’s weapons.

About a dozen breaths later, demonic and azure lights descended from beyond the sky. The demonic light directly fell upon the Heavenly Demon Hall, while the azure light returned to Myriad Demon Mountain in the Demon Domain.

Countless cultivators were very interested in the outcome of this battle, wondering whether the Demon Lord Dugu Weizun of the Heavenly Demon Hall was stronger, or if the Demon Lord Dongfang Qingcang from Myriad Demon Mountain had the upper hand.

Perhaps only the rulers of these Sacred Lands, themselves powerful beings of the Tongxuan Realm, knew the victor of this battle.

Bai Yujing.

Within the hidden Bai Yujing in the void, an elderly man with white hair and beard emanating an air of immortal grace stroked his beard, withdrew his gaze, and sighed:

“Dongfang Qingcang, that old demon, actually took that step, and little Dugu Weizun has also grown to this extent. Time really spares no one.”

If these words were to spread outside, they would certainly cause a huge stir. The leader of Myriad Demon Mountain was suspected of making a new breakthrough, and yet, someone had referred to the Demon Lord Dugu Weizun as a “little guy.”

However, since it was the old Daoist of Bai Yujing who said it, it seemed rather normal.

The old Daoist of Bai Yujing had once defeated the ruler of Myriad Demon Mountain, Dongfang Qingcang, head-on. Dugu Weizun was the emerging talent of a later era who had dramatically risen in the demonic path and became the new Demon Lord after the old Demon Lord passed away.

Xumi Mountain.

“The female Demon King Bai Keqing from the Demon Clan has not returned to the Demon Domain since she was rescued by Ye Fan, and the Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing is suspected to have gone to the Xuan Domain to look for her. On her return to the Demon Domain, she was attacked and vanished without a trace.”

“Even the old demon of Myriad Demon Mountain couldn’t trace any clues; it must have been an imperial weapon that erased all traces. Who exactly is targeting the Demon Clan?”

The Bodhisattva, dignified and serene, sat cross-legged in the void, pondering in her heart. An immeasurable sense of Zen pervaded the void. The sound of Buddhism twirled around Xumi Mountain, while the Buddha’s light shone across billions of miles within the Buddha Domain.

She did not take action, the old Daoist of Bai Yujing would not be the first to make a move, and neither the House of Divine Armies nor the Summits of the Stars would do so. No wonder Dongfang Qingcang headed to Heavenly Demon Hall.

In the Qianyuan Divine Province, only a few of these Sacred Lands had the capability. Among them, the Demon Lord Dugu Weizun of the Heavenly Demon Hall was the most suspicious.

“This little demon has grown so fast in strength,” she thought of Dugu Weizun. The Bodhisattva recalled how Dugu Weizun, within less than a hundred years of taking the position as the Demon Lord of the Heavenly Demon Hall, boldly came to her Buddha Domain to protect someone, evidently full of youthful vigor.
