Chapter 913: Chapter 21: She’s Still Hungry [Vote for Monthly Tickets!]

From the moment Sky-north Prison was breached, when the Demon God Origin descended, heading straight for Tuntun, Chu Liang had considered that if Tuntun was truly in danger, he would have to take her into the White Pagoda at all costs; he could not possibly let her be killed.

Later, everything went according to plan, and the Demon God was captured by the Universe Ring. Chu Liang, therefore, did not take Tuntun back. Given that all the great powers above were watching, Tuntun was the center of attention. Acting rashly at such a time was unnecessary, and it might even risk exposing the White Pagoda.

When the matter concluded, and they had successfully slain the Demon God, Tuntun was no longer under such great threat, and he could then take her away.

However, he had not anticipated that the Demon God could actually break free from the Universe Ring. It was no wonder the Ninth Realm was the sole supreme existence in the world, as even the remaining origin was still so powerful. The terror the Human Clan faced during the Demon God upheaval back then must have truly seemed like the apocalypse.

It was known that the body of Demon King Yi wasn’t very suited for the Demon God to exert its strength. If it were to truly possess a Heaven Devouring Beast’s shell, the power would be unimaginable.

What was more unexpected was that, at the moment when the Demon God was cornered, it was Daoist Cang Sheng who stepped in and saved it once.

With only a trace of Spiritual Power left in the Demon God Origin, if it tried to flee far away, it might have been caught up by fast Divine Artifacts like the Shu Mountain Divine Boat. Thus, it chose to turn back and fight its way back into Sky-north Prison.

Here, there was an immature Heaven Devouring Beast.

Now, by possessing this shell, it could truly be reborn and no longer fear being slain by the Human Cultivators.

But...

In the dazzling golden light, Chu Liang saw Tuntun appearing like a white figure bathed in a golden sea. This white figure initially was a chubby little ball, which gradually stretched out into a sleek curve.

The Demon Kings in mid-air watched this scene with mixed feelings: joy because their god had survived the global assassination and was about to be reborn, and worry because the new life was being carried by a Heaven Devouring Beast raised by humans.

The great powers of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands were deeply worried. As long as the Demon God did not die, this operation could not be considered a success. No one knew what would happen next.

At the moment when everyone’s attention was focused on the burst of golden light, only Elder Mayfly went against the trend. He did not care about the battle between the Demon God Origin and the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands. He didn’t even know what had happened. Regardless of whether the leader was a human or a demon, he could mix well with either.

While everyone’s attention was drawn elsewhere, a Mayfly bite landed on Du Wuhen’s body, causing him to shudder, then he wandered off in a daze, quickly sweeping across several mountains before arriving before Elder Mayfly.

Elder Mayfly retracted his seed, calling out, "Big brother."

Du Wuhen suddenly woke up, looking at the person before him, exclaimed with joy, "Second brother!"

While the reunion of the brothers is set aside for now, the golden light swiftly faded elsewhere, leaving behind a tall and slender figure.

She was a girl who appeared to be no older than sixteen or seventeen, very tall and slim. She wore a flowing black dress, her long black hair cascading down, making her exposed skin glow with a pale radiance.

Her features were delicate, and there was a divine subtlety in her soft eyes. However, her eyes reflected complete confusion and ignorance. She stood there dumbfounded, looking around, as if utterly unaware of what had happened.

"Lord Demon God!" screamed a ferocious Demon King from the sky.

She realized those voices were calling her, but instead of responding, she stepped back in fright.

"Tuntun?" Chu Liang also called out softly beside her.

The girl then turned her head towards Chu Liang, blinked, and said hesitantly, "I... I’m hungry."

...

In that instant, Chu Liang suddenly understood why the Demonic Clan was determined to kill Tuntun.

From the recent battle, it could be seen that the Demon God Origin seemed to lack consciousness, almost entirely driven by instinct. That is to say, without a physical body and a Godly Soul, the Origin of Life likely possessed neither memory nor thought.

It made sense, after all. The physical body represents the external shell and the Godly Soul the inner thoughts. Ordinary beings, body and soul extinguished, are as dead as dead can be. But, because of the extraordinarily powerful Origin of Life, the Demon God of the Ninth Realm survived.

It probably didn’t have much cognitive ability!

The previous actions were largely influenced by Demon King Yi, who hosted it.

That also explained why those deeds were carried out by the subordinates of the Demonic Clan. Otherwise, with the strength of the Demon God Origin capable of going head-to-head with several Divine Artifacts, had it had a bit of intelligence, the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands might have already been shattered one by one.

Even if it chose to act through possession, the physical body of a Demon King at the Peak of the Eighth Realm could not withstand the residual power of the Demon God for many attempts, making such a sacrifice far too great.

This was the main reason why the origin of the Demon God had never manifested in the world before.

It was incomplete!

Therefore, once a vessel was chosen, the thought process of that vessel would largely become dominant. They preferred to raise a Heaven Devouring Beast themselves rather than deal with Tuntun, who had been raised to enjoy eating fried foods.

Wait a minute...

As his thoughts became clearer, Chu Liang began to entertain a bold idea. Could it be that the so-called vessel was the new Demon God?

He took out a greasy paper package containing a bag of fried stinky tofu and gently shook it, "Do you want it?"

The girl’s nose twitched, then she nodded, "Mhm."

Just as Chu Liang was slowly handing over the fried stinky tofu, a furious roar came from above, "What are you using to profane the gods!"

Thunderous in its ferocity, it was the Demon Race High Priest, clearly very enraged. Swinging the Divine Staff in his hand, he swooped down as if to crush Chu Liang, this blasphemer, to death.

Master Wen Yuan was the first to intervene. With a turn of the primordial chaos, he transported in front of Chu Liang, swung his large sleeve, and launched a Sleeves Qiankun attack at the Grand Priest.

Before the two could collide, the girl suddenly moved.

Almost instinctively, she waved her hand, and bang—

Master Wen Yuan’s body was sent flying hundreds of yards away.

Seeing his chance, the Grand Priest attacked Chu Liang even more viciously, but the girl waved her hand again, and boom—

This strike was even more fierce, sending the Grand Priest flying thousands of yards away, disappearing from everyone’s sight and becoming a speck in the sky.

"Ah..." After striking, the girl herself seemed frightened, retracting her hand.

The onlookers were utterly silenced, none daring to make a sound.

The Demon God did not hesitate to strike their own people?

Being the closest, Chu Liang saw everything clearly.

Her first move was triggered by seeing Master Wen Yuan attack the Grand Priest; it seemed she was conscious and wanted to protect the Demon Race High Priest, hence she swung her hand to stop him, sending the Sect Leader flying.

Her second move was triggered by seeing the Grand Priest attack herself; instinctively, she wanted to protect herself more, and with one slap, she made the Grand Priest disappear.

It appeared that the Demon God Origin still held a certain dominance, hence her subconscious protection of the Demon Race. However, Tuntun’s share might be more substantial, so she protected herself more fiercely.

The girl looked around, noticing that everyone’s gaze was fixed on her, tinged with hostility. Divine Artifacts floated in midair, locking onto her with their aura.

She seemed somewhat afraid, stood up, and turned into a streak of golden light, flying toward the direction the Grand Priest had been sent. Seeing this, the Demon Kings hurriedly followed, and no one dared to stop them.

After the Demon God left, those with great power in the sky showed complex expressions, revealing looks of uncertainty about the calamity or blessing this meant.

Who knew that in the blink of an eye, that golden light suddenly flew back, landing once more in front of Chu Liang. Just as everyone’s hearts had relaxed, they tightened once again.

Smack.

The girl snatched the fried stinky tofu from Chu Liang’s hand, then turned back into a stream of light and fled.

She was still hungry.
