Demonic beasts have never been this weak, they were no longer feared monsters but pitiful things that were up for slaughter.
That stinking monkey that dared to throw a rock at her completely enraged her. She didn’t hold back and used her full power to show these beasts who was the real king!
As a human, Lin Xiao didn’t feel anything special towards the pressure, he just felt a bit stuffy, but not so much for those demonic beasts…
Continuing from the previous money rain, another unbelievable scene played out in front of him.
There were wailing wherever Elena went. No matter how powerful of demonic beasts they were, they could only kneel in front of her begging for forgiveness!
What, a fourth-level nocturnal lion monkey? Please move aside, your king just fell to his death, please deal with the aftermath before coming to look for more abuse…
A fifth-level vicious purple spider? Oh, your butt can glow, so come over and help the demon king with some lighting…
A sixth-level golden-blooded snake? Oh, not bad, you’re pretty big, come over and act as the demon king’s footstool…
God, how are they demonic beasts anymore, they’re more like obedient servants!
Under Elena’s intense pressure, those demonic beasts either passed out instantly or would froth at the mouth while twitching on the ground. They had none of the dignity of high-level demonic beasts, just with one sway of the cute catgirl’s tail, the originally dangerous and dark forest was filled with painful cries of the demonic beasts.
Outside of being in awe, Lin Xiao also wiped off some sweat.
Fortunately, he came here with Elena…
There were far more demonic beasts than he could have imagined, it would be delusional if those stragglers wanted to chase these demonic beasts away! Even with Caesar and Archer as the core members, there would be heavy casualties.
So it seems that he saved their lives by delaying them! Though they weren’t aware of it at all…
“What are you still dazing out for? Help!”
Elena shouted and Lin Xiao shot out a magic shield.
Clang, clang, clang, clang!
Suddenly, four sharp noises rang out and when Lin Xiao took a good look, he noticed it was four spikes as thick as tree trunks! Thankfully he used a strengthened magic shield so it could block the thick spikes, otherwise, it would have pierced through.
“My god, am I seeing things? A seventh-level phosphorous poisonous scorpion!? … Where the hell did that come from!?” Lin Xiao couldn’t help but cry out across the shield.
The forest was still pitch-black and he couldn’t see much but based on those four thick spikes, Lin Xiao was sure of it.
Not only did these spikes that were shot from afar carry a lot of force, it was also coated with a fatal toxin and with just a small scratch, you would get completely paralyzed and die within the minute!
… Seventh-level demonic beasts were no joke! Even Lin Xiao had to get serious, if he still had a causal attitude, he had a high chance of dying!
Just this one scorpion was enough to wipe out Abra’s entire team!
“Hmph, I already expected you would be hiding far away and ambushing us, vermin…” Elena squinted, her ears twitching nonstop, telling of her rage.
She took a deep breath and retracted all her aura, then she looked towards the darkness and extended one hand.
A cry was soon heard…
“Uh, demon king, what happened to that poor little scorpion?”
Even though that scorpion was at least as large as a two-storied building, Lin Xiao still called it little… it can’t be helped, even a seventh-level demonic beast was only a ‘little’ scorpion in front of the demon king.
“Oh, it passed out. It’ll probably wake up in a week.”
“Badass.” That was the only word that could express Lin Xiao’s current feelings.
“… Let’s go.”
Elena shook her head at his gaze of admiration and helplessly sighed. She swung her tail and gently smacked it against his leg, motioning him to hurry up and then silently walked ahead.
To Lin Xiao, her performance was worthy of praise, but to her, that was just because he hasn’t seen much.
It was just making a mere seventh-level demonic beasts pass out, there was nothing to be proud of, she was the demon king! Rather, she felt ashamed.
To her, all demonic beasts were her subjects, no matter how powerful. They were all obedient children and even if they were occasionally some disobedient bad children, they would turn over a new leaf after some discipline. There would never be a child that dared to resist her, attacking her was even more impossible!
But now, some disobedient beast was hiding far away and throwing spikes at her…
What should she do with her face as the demon king? If it got out, wouldn’t she be a joke?
“Bastard, you best not let me catch you…”
Elena gnashed her teeth as she hastened her pace.
She naturally knew that the reason these beasts were attacking her was because of someone’s directions, so she had to find them and grind them to paste!
They continued deeper into the canyon and walked along the river valley and finally found a hidden cave under a cliff.
“If those drunk mercenaries weren’t bullshitting, that high-level demon bro should be hiding in here.”
“I don’t need you to say that, I know.”
Elena stepped on two sixth-level demonic beasts, Scarlet Flame Tigers, that passed out earlier and walked into the cave.
Even without information, just with these two tigers guarding the entrance, it proved that the one she was looking for was inside!
“Uh… little tigers, don’t do this anymore, this job is too dangerous.” Lin Xiao bent down and patted the heads of the two little tigers.
Their thick fur was scarlet red like fire, their claws were sharp beyond belief, their horrifying heads were hideous and gruesome, they just looked like powerful demonic beasts.
If he remembered correctly, not only were these tigers physically strong, they could even gather the fire element in the air and spit fire, so they were far more annoying to deal with than the average sixth-level demonic beast!
“Sigh, sleep, sleep, there’s no pain in dreams, and also no cruel demon king, dreams are the best…” Lin Xiao gently patted the tigers heads.
“You called me cruel?”
“Uh… you actually heard.”
“Stop wasting time, hurry up!”
“O-oh…”
Lin Xiao looked regrettably at the cute little tigers and sighed and quickly followed her.
The light became dimmer as they entered the cave and they had to rely on Elena’s perception skill to feel their way ahead. It was good that the cave was spacious and wasn’t rocky at all. There was one path that lead to the inside without any forks, and it saved them a lot of trouble.
Unlike the outside, the cave was filled with powerful monsters, there were no fourth and fifth-level small fries, the lowest level was the sixth-level tigers. But they still could only lower their heads in front of Elena.
Raarrrhhh~~
While they were walking, they heard a deep roar.
Lin Xiao looked over curiously and saw a huge tiger, at least twice as big as the ones at the entrance, its mouth was large enough to completely swallow Lin Xiao whole!
“Shh… quiet down, do you want to inform your master? Don’t do that little tiger, quiet down if you don’t want to die.” Lin Xiao smiled as he walked next to it and touched its whiskers.
Awoo~
The tiger weakly responded like it could understand him.
“Un, that’s a good boy… are you the older brother of those tigers? Not bad, you’re strong and brave, I admire you!”
All the other tigers passed out in front of Elena’s aura, but this guy could still maintain consciousness. Even though it was just whimpering and prostrating on the floor, it was already hard to come by!
“Pervert, stop fooling around and follow me!”
“O-oh…”
After getting pressed by the demon king again, Lin Xiao reluctantly parted with this brave tiger and followed up.
“Quiet, that person is in front of us…” Elena increased her perception skill and found an intense power in the depths of the caves.
“Hm, that should be the culprit right… how is it, is it anyone you know?”
“It seems like it.”
“What does that mean, it’s yes or no.”
“Hm…”
“I think she’s my thirteenth aunt.”
“What?”
