Chapter 735 - 735 721 Kill the chicken to scare the monkey

Chapter 735: Chapter 721: Kill the chicken to scare the monkey Chapter 735: Chapter 721: Kill the chicken to scare the monkey Zun Yu pondered meticulously.

His subordinates, who could abandon him at any time, were almost wiped out by the new Third Demon. He heard Ling Bo had already surrendered; he knew that some of these cowards also harbored thoughts of surrendering but feared he might make them an example by executing them.

So none of them spoke up.

But these guys, knowing that Ling Bo surrendered and was living well, they started to waver in their loyalties. However, he himself couldn’t surrender. Like Ming Bei, both of them, in the eyes of the New City Sect, were the deepest of enemies. Ling Bo was able to surrender because his feud with the New City Sect wasn’t as deep.

Keeping these cowards around wouldn’t be a waste; piggybacking them to Kunlun Mountain might just lead to the serendipitous discovery of the Wolf King’s Ring. Even the mighty Longhun really wanted to obtain the Wolf King’s Ring. Without much thought, he made up his mind immediately to head for Kunlun Mountain and take a gamble.

Ming Bei too was out of options; knowing Luo Hai was already killed, the people of New City Sect and Wan Residence would never let him go. He didn’t want to wait for death, he needed an escape; this seemed to be the only way out.

Zun Yu looked at Ming Bei and said in a low voice, “Find those cowards who’re planning to surrender, and kill them.”

This aligned with Ming Bei’s thoughts too – truly killing these cowards would serve as a warning to others, deterring any with thoughts of betrayal.

Zun Yu further added, “Even if we can’t find them all, killing a few should be enough to shake them up.”

“Mmm, I understand. Leave this matter to me. I know what needs to be done.” Ming Bei had to follow Zun Yu’s command now, according to their seniority.

“We should collaborate well. In the future, how about me being the boss and you being the second-in-command?” Zun Yu watched Ming Bei, gauging his reaction, then added: “Or I can be the second-in-command, and you can be the boss.”

“Heh, you be the boss, I’ll be the second-in-command.”

“That’s settled then.”

“Alright, I’ll obey all of the boss’s orders.”

“Let’s take full advantage of this opportunity and gamble with them to see who’s luckier.”

Ming Bei nodded in agreement. He also wanted to seize some power for himself, but he knew his seniority didn’t allow it. He figured Zun Yu was okay, it looked like this was his only chance for promotion.

True to his word, Ming Bei caught a few men the next morning and executed them on the spot, claiming they were in cahoots with the New City Sect, sowing discord among the ranks.

As expected, the executions had a substantial effect.

With a few heads served as a warning, Zun Yu’s position was firmly secured. Now suggesting they enter Kunlun Mountain to find the Wolf King’s Ring was much easier. By this point, who would dare to disagree? Whoever disagrees would be under the threat of death. Terrified, these guys were all feverishly nodding in agreement, pledging to find the Wolf King’s Ring, to revenge for the fallen of the Third Demon.

Zun Yu was quite satisfied, finally having steadied his fickle men. Killing a few of them was necessary.

Zun Yu said, “Don’t delude yourselves. Do you think surrendering will work? If it did, I would have done so long ago. That coward Ling Bo thought he would get off easy by surrendering, do you not know it’s all for show! Those young fools are stirring up trouble, thinking I don’t know what they’re trying to pull. They want our forces in disarray.”

After executing a few men, the rest just stood quietly, the blade still dripping with blood.

Zun Yu said, “We now have a chance to turn things around. As long as we find the Wolf King’s Ring, we can control the Raging Wolf Clan. By then, not only the New City Sect, annihilating the entire Immortal Demon World will be as easy as pie.

In the future, the entire human realm will be ours.”

He made it sound like the entire human realm was already theirs.

Zun Yu continued, “Those bastards from the New City Sect want to annihilate us. It won’t be that easy. We must avenge the fallen of the Third Demon. We must get the Wolf King’s Ring. The moment we have it, you will all be the masters of the Raging Wolf Clan, and I won’t forget your loyalty. Each one of you will get what you want, I promise, beautiful women included.”

He wanted his words to make them salivate with anticipation, but at that moment, they were sweating nervously instead.

“Such opportunities are rare. Not everyone can count on such a chance. We must all make an effort. The people of the Immortal Demon World can’t control us now, it’s a golden opportunity for us.”

…

Ever since the Evil Domain and Demon Domain were defeated under the walls of Demon Palace City by the Dragon Slaying Clan, with countless deaths resulting in them having to hide, the emergence of the Demon and Immortal World facing defeat on Dragon Slayer Island gave them a breather.

Only then did the people of the Immortal Demon World stop pressing them so hard. But they had suffered so many casualties, with countless mutant winged dragons of theirs dead. If they did not find a way replenish their strength now, they would only get weaker.

In the end, the Evil King Sheng Kong and Gao Ba of the Demon Domain decided to join forces, hoping that by working together, they could resist the Immortal Demon World.

But they were still considerably weak.

Subsequently, Yin Jue of the Demon Domain proposed heading to the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain to find more formidable winged dragons and mutant beasts.

Sheng Kong, however, was reluctant, saying that entering Kunlun Mountain was fraught with dangers.

But Yin Jue argued, “We don’t necessarily have to go deep into Kunlun Mountain, we should be able to find helpful mutant beasts and winged dragons.”

At this point, they indeed needed more powerful mutant beasts and winged dragons to aid them; otherwise, they were no match for the Immortal Demon World. That aside, recruiting more disciples at once wasn’t possible, so this was the quickest way to boost their power.

Sheng Kong pondered for a moment and felt that amidst the chaos of the Immortal and Demon Domains, this approach, indeed, have room to blossom. If they were able to nab some fierce monsters from Kunlun Mountain, it would be of great help to replenish their numbers by a few hundred or thousands.

The Evil King, Sheng Kong, decided to keep Shi Tuo behind to handle the miscreants of the Immortal and Demon Domains. If all of them were to leave, it would certainly raise suspicions. With this in mind, he took Huan Huo with him.

Gao Ba set off, taking Yin Jue and Xishan Gui with him.

Kunlun Mountain is divided into four rings. The outermost one is the beast ring where various dangerous monsters inhabit. Winged ones that can fly, fire-breathing beasts, horn-covered creatures – anything you can imagine may be found there.

The mutant beasts and Winged Dragons they sought were predominantly found in this first ring. It was teeming with them. They intended to secure these potent creatures from there.

With strenuous effort and using Shi Tuo’s lead, they managed to dodge the Immortal and Demon Domain’s people and silently infiltrated Kunlun Mountain.

Yin Jue of the Demon Domain gratefully remarked, “We owe it to the Dragon Slaying Clan. Without their interference, we wouldn’t have reached Kunlun Mountain this smoothly.”

Huan Huo from Evil Domain listened surprisingly, saying, “This Longhun is quite powerful, yet so easily dealt with.”

They were not aware of the Raging Wolf Clan’s imminent arrival.

Xishan Gui of the Demon Domain said, “Even the best horse can sometimes stumble. Simply look at how many are surrounding the Dragon Slaying Clan. If they all managed to escape, they’d indeed be inept.”

Ye Chen and his company had already entered the Central Plains, continually approaching Kunlun Mountain. He had to hasten as time was a critical success factor. Longhun was notably ahead of them; if they didn’t speed up now, their hope of securing the Wolf King’s Ring and halting the Raging Wolf Clan may end in ruins.

By this time, night had fallen.

Can Mo hurried over, suggesting, “There’s a small town up ahead. Let’s rest there tonight and replenish our supplies.”

Ye Chen nodded in agreement, instructing those behind to prepare for rest.

Can Mo added, “Guo Mingyu is leading the team, with Guan Yi and Song Zheng’an participating. They’ve already set off towards Kunlun Mountain, while Hu Nanyue and the Demon Palace’s people are following Su Zhanze to the Immortal City.”

Guo Yuyun looked over, asking, “Did my father also enter Kunlun Mountain?”

“Yes, your father is leading the team into Kunlun Mountain,” Can Mo replied.

Guo Yuyun had surmised this, letting out a long sigh. After entering the Central Plains, He Xibai had left.

Ye Chen looked over, joking, “Your father might be in danger and you don’t know. Not much of a doting daughter, are you?”

Guo Yuyun asked, “Can Mo, can we rendezvous with them and enter Kunlun Mountain together?”

Can Mo shook his head, “They probably won’t wait for us. They should already be in Kunlun Mountain. It wouldn’t be reasonable to spend time waiting for us. Besides, more than just us want the ring, the Dragon Slaying Clan wants it as well. They’ll be moving faster than us; your father’s team would likely try to beat them there.”

Yun’er was now in the clear.

“Now our priority is to reach Kunlun Mountain as quickly as possible. That’s crucial, instead of wasting time on the journey,” Can Mo said.

Ye Chen remarked, “Inform them that we will also be entering Kunlun Mountain.”

“I’ve sent them a carrier pigeon with a message.”

Ye Chen asked again, “Oh, yes, have Zun Yu and Ming Bei also escaped to the Central Plains?”

“Yep, that Ming Bei is quite something. He used his family’s resources, escaped the encirclement, and fled directly to the Central Plains with Zun Yu.”

Li Mo said, “It’s a pity that the Immortal and Demon Domains can’t help us deal with them now, since they’re preoccupied with their own survival.”

However, Can Mo worried, “I’m afraid Zun Yu and his group may also be heading to Kunlun Mountain. They couldn’t possibly be unaware of the huge incident in the Demon Valley. Who could resist the allure of the Wolf King’s Ring in Kunlun Mountain?”

Ye Chen led them into the small town.

They’d been roughing it in the wilderness for several days. Finally, they could have a good rest tonight.

The small town was very peaceful. It was if the townspeople knew nothing of the events unfolding. Perhaps it was because the town was on the periphery, not on the path of the Raging Wolves to the Immortal City Sect. But Ye Chen knew that these thriving towns could be razed to the ground in an instant. He’d heard that many villages, small towns, and cities had already been ravaged by the Raging Wolves.

This was just the beginning. If the Immortal City Sect couldn’t hold out, the marauders throughout the towns would multiply.

He felt a burning unrest in his heart.

In a similar vein, Can Mo felt a pressing urgency, “Su Zhanze and Hu Nanyue have already rushed to the Immortal City in time. I think they should be able to buy some time. After all, it is a fortified city with organized systems. I’ve heard that some individuals from the Immortal and Demon Domains are going to help, too. They understand the severity of the situation. If they can join forces, they should be able to hold out.”

Li Mo, however, argued, “What’s most important is still the Wolf King’s Ring. If it falls into Longhun’s hands, it’s game over.”
