Chapter 228: Chapter 216: Endless (Seven): Loyalty! Devotion!!! Evil Cult Scheming (3/3, Don’t Raise Them Anymore T^T)

Having wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, Chu Feng re-cast Wind Concealment on himself and then silently leaped onto the rooftop.

Glancing in the direction of the earthen walls, the Ridgeback Serpent Demons’ line of sight should have been unable to reach him here, allowing him to finally relax, as he scanned the surroundings of the Inner City beneath the dim moonlight.

He saw a row of simple but neatly planned thatched houses, connected by straight paths that intersected at right angles.

Not far away, in the center of the Inner City, there stood a large set of buildings strikingly out of place amid the modest thatched homes.

These thatched houses were made of mud bricks mixed with plants’ roots and stems, thus looking decrepit but were actually quite sturdy.

As Chu Feng looked at the thatched houses, a strong feeling of discomfort arose within him.

Although building houses was not a skill unique to the Human Race, the Demon Clan and certain high-rank Demon Clan also had architectural skills.

However, the style of these thatched houses, the layout of the doors and roads exuded a strong "human flavor."

Without a doubt, the design and planning of these houses were likely contributions made by human traitors for the Demon Clan.

Applying slight force under his feet, he drifted with the breeze towards the large buildings in the center of the Inner City.

Upon arriving at the central complex of buildings, Chu Feng took one look and almost burst out laughing.

The buildings appeared grand from afar, but only when viewed up close did it become evident that this was a vast courtyard with as many as eight sectors!

It was like the mansion of a duke or prince from a historical movie, except the architectural style was somewhat bizarre—greatly differing from that of Longhua.

Those human traitors had groveled before the high-rank Demon Clan to such an extent—

They had constructed a luxurious estate for those beasts in human clothing!

Chu Feng had never seen such shameless people before!

He silently spat out a curse and stealthily sneaked into the courtyard.

...

It was deep into the night, and the first four courtyards were desolate, uninhabited by the Demon Clan, with only occasional patrols passing by.

It was not until he reached the fifth courtyard that Chu Feng’s ears twitched as he heard the intense sounds of discussion from the room opposite.

Listening intently, he couldn’t help but scratch his head, as he couldn’t understand what the people inside were saying.

The strange sound that reached his ears made him feel faintly lightheaded.

He instantly became alert—it must be the Magic Race Language!

The language that had a bewitching effect on the soul, restricted from common learning within the district.

But how could he gather information if he could not understand what was being said inside?

—Would his great reconnaissance mission end prematurely due to illiteracy?

After a brief pause in the room opposite’s incomprehensible foreign language, the voice that followed invigorated Chu Feng—it was the immaculately clear Longhua Language.

A human male voice spoke coldly, without much respect, "Lord High Priest, your killing intent might be a bit too excessive!"

No sooner had the voice fallen than a hoarse voice, speaking Longhua Language with an odd accent, coldly laughed in response,

"No one can stop us from worshiping the Fire-Worshipping God, who is also recognized by the Divine Emperor!"

"Heh, are you saying your so-called loyalty involves harboring some damned, pitiable sympathy for your lowly compatriots?

"Ha, it seems that as followers and servants of the Divine Emperor, you dirty humans are indeed not sufficiently loyal!

"After all, you carry the most contemptible blood—you can’t even speak the God Race Language properly!"

Chu Feng guessed that this hoarse voice might belong to the Fire Ritual Spirit Demon.

The God Race mentioned by it referred to the Demon Clan as recognized by humans, and the Divine Emperor was the ruler of the Demon Clan, the Demon Emperor.

The enemy who killed his parents was in the room below, yet Chu Feng remained as steady as a mountain, his gaze growing increasingly icy.

The person and demon in the room were of unknown realms, but whenever he thought of breaking out, he could feel a chill rising in his heart.

He knew that this was the instinct of martial artists to pursue benefits and avoid harm, stopping him from taking risks.

—The two beings in the room were far too superior in realm compared to him.

Now was certainly not a good time to make a move, as it would only lead to senseless death.

He lay prone on the roof, motionless, carefully listening to the conversation between the human and the demon.

...

The male voice fell silent for a moment, but he did not get angry. Instead, he spoke indifferently, "Our efforts in cleansing and purifying the despicable human race’s bodies and souls have been acknowledged by the Divine Emperor.

"He promises that our entire Divine Sect will be elevated, becoming true members of the God Race.

"By saying these words, are you denying the authority of the Divine Emperor?

"Could it be that in your eyes there is only the Fire-Worshipping God, and no place for the Divine Emperor?"

As Chu Feng listened to the human male’s words, the murderous intent in his eyes grew more intense.

The so-called "Divine Sect" is an evil cult known as the "God Worship Sect," formed by humans who have pledged allegiance to the Demon Clan.

According to Wang Weiguo, the God Worship Sect has many factions, worshipping different branches of the Demon Clan, but their supreme god is the ruler of the Demon Realm, the Demon Emperor.

Some factions are extreme in their ideology, vowing to eradicate the human race to earn great merit for the Demon Clan.

Once the Demon Clan takes over Blue Star, through the rite of conversion to demon form, they will free themselves from the shackles of human flesh and transform into incredibly powerful, nearly immortal members of the Demon Clan.

Other factions hold slightly milder ideologies, aimed at pursuing coexistence between the Human Race and the Demon Clan, where the Human Race will serve as subservient servants under the rule of the Demon Clan.

Regardless of the faction, they have all participated in creating terrorist attacks and massacring Blue Star humans, making them an unchangeable anti-human evil cult.

This so-called Vice Sect Hierarch belongs to an unknown branch, but from his words about "cleansing" and "purifying," it is not hard to see that he is likely a leader of one of the most extreme factions.

"Nonsense! Our Sacrificial Fire Spirit Clan is forever loyal to the Divine Emperor! Loyalty is our blood, our spirit!

"In the entire Demon Realm, no race is more loyal than our Sacrificial Fire Spirit Clan!

"Loyalty! Loyalty!!"

The Fire Ritual Spirit Demon roared furiously, and from atop the roof, Chu Feng could almost imagine the furious expression on its face.

The human male softened his tone, "Of course, I believe the Sacrificial Fire Spirit Clan is loyal to the Divine Emperor, so please remember the purpose of our visit.

"We are here not to slaughter those despicable ants but for a more important task!

"As the followers and servants of the Divine Emperor, we must always remember to prioritize the interests of the God Race!"

"Hmph!"

The Fire Ritual Spirit Demon snorted coldly, falling silent for a long while before speaking slowly again, "Remember, I do not follow your orders.

"You, a human with despicable blood, are not worthy to command the noble God Race!

"I am merely acting on the Divine Emperor’s will, following the orders of the Divine Child."

The human male spoke slowly, "We are all servants of the Divine Emperor, following the orders of the Divine Child.

"So, tomorrow I will represent the Divine Child and agree to the conditions of this Demon Clan. You won’t oppose me publicly anymore, causing internal strife, right?"

The Fire Ritual Spirit Demon muttered in a deep voice, so low that Chu Feng almost didn’t catch what it was saying, "Fine, fine, go ahead and agree!

"Those greedy, brainless beasts aiming to swallow half the Divine Realm, they deserve to die!

"Sooner or later, I will offer them all to the Fire-Worshipping God with the sacred fire!"

The human male reassured, "Of course, of course, once we eliminate the Human Race forces opposing the God Race, as long as it doesn’t affect the plan of the Divine Emperor, you can handle the Demon Clan however you like."

The Fire Ritual Spirit Demon retorted, "What about you! Weren’t you ready before you came here?"
