Chapter 1192: Where’s Your Dignity as a Great Demon?

Chapter 1192: Chapter 1192: Where’s Your Dignity as a Great Demon?

"How many City Lords like Angelo Howard have surrendered?" asked Carson Flores.

The elder answered, "On my way here, I have brought thirteen under control. There were also those who refused to submit, and I killed them in secret, passing it off as retaliation to prevent our plan from being exposed."

"There are quite a few like me. I think that by now, at least two hundred cities have secretly surrendered to our Demon Race..."

Two hundred cities!

Even though the Barbaric Wilderness Realm is vast, each city is very far apart. Two hundred cities already cover a large area.

What’s more critical is that their infiltration operations are still ongoing. If Carson hadn’t stumbled upon this today, that number would likely continue to increase rapidly.

The elder, named Princeton Pearson, was in the late stages of being a Great Demon and was a member of the Infiltration Action Team. He held a relatively low rank, so he wasn’t aware of all the details.

"What about Lilianna Norman?" Carson Flores suddenly asked, "Has she gone back?"

"She has returned and is currently in closed-door cultivation, I heard she’s attempting to enter the Great Demon Realm."

Carson Flores asked, curious, "The Demon Ancestor has a grudge against her, hasn’t he taken action against her?"

Princeton Pearson asked with confusion, "The Demon Ancestor has a grudge against the Saintess?"

Looking at him, Carson knew he was also kept in the dark, and he replied coldly with a laugh, "Your Demon Ancestor left behind so many conditions which ultimately pointed to Lilianna Norman to resurrect her, wasn’t it just to snatch the Saintess’s body and live a new life?"

Princeton Pearson’s eyes widened in shock, "Then the rumor that you abducted the Saintess..."

Carson Flores answered, "I was secretly following the whole time. Naturally, I couldn’t let the Demon Ancestor successfully possess Lilianna Norman. So when Lilianna Norman was unconscious, I stepped in and took her away. In the Eternal Tombfield, I fought the Demon Ancestor and destroyed her physical body. At the time, the Demon Race searched extensively for Lilianna Norman, which must have been the Demon Ancestor’s impatient attempt to capture her and possess her..."

Princeton Pearson looked at Carson Flores in astonishment, with disbelief written all over his face.

"You destroyed the Demon Ancestor’s physical body?"

Carson Flores said coldly, "Otherwise, what? If it hadn’t been for me just being acknowledged by the Emperor Seal and not strong enough at the time, her Primordial Spirit would have had no escape, and none of this would have happened afterward."

Princeton Pearson regretted deeply in his heart.

If he had known about this sooner, he would have run away at the first glimpse of Carson Flores. Even the Demon Ancestor was beaten by Carson Flores to the brink of destruction; what did he count for?

He must have had his head in the clouds to even think about killing Carson Flores, seizing the Emperor Seal, and claiming a great accomplishment...

Looking back, Carson Flores, knowing that he was facing a powerful Great Demon, never hesitated to reveal his identity as the Human Emperor. It wasn’t to seek help from others, but because he was absolutely confident in taking him down.

He was truly foolish!

With this thought, Princeton Pearson completely gave up any last hope and offered his final and greatest show of sincerity.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to sign a contract with you, to serve you as my lord and obey your command, please just spare my life."

Carson Flores was slightly surprised and asked with a smile, "Aren’t you, a mighty Great Demon, feeling humiliated? Where is your Great Demon’s pride?"

Princeton Pearson sighed, "Among all beings between heaven and earth, the Human Race is the most suited for Cultivation. For our Demon Race to achieve success in Cultivation, we have to put in much more effort and face far greater dangers to finally transform into human form and be on the same starting line as Human Cultivators."

"You are only a few decades old yet have reached such strength. As for me, I have endured for one thousand eight hundred and ten years. If I could live, who would wish to die?"

"As the Human Emperor, your future is destined to be immensely glorious. Serving you isn’t really something I consider a humiliation, not to mention any sense of Great Demon dignity."

Carson Flores stared at Princeton Pearson, who looked back calmly, anticipation in his eyes but no longer the initial fear or rage.

Carson Flores thought for a moment and nodded, "Very well, surrender your True Soul, and I shall spare your life."

Princeton Pearson’s eyes suddenly burst with intense joy, and without a second word, he brought out his True Soul.

Following the instructions previously given to him by his senior sister, Carson Flores signed a master-servant contract with Princeton Pearson. From then on, Princeton Pearson’s life was in Carson Flores’s hands — a mere thought could end it.

After all, he was in the late stages of being a Great Demon and not lacking in strength; keeping him could be useful even just as a scout. If Carson Flores wanted to delve deeper into the Demon Race’s territory, Princeton Pearson could also provide some cover.

Now that the contract was signed, Carson Flores released the prohibition on the Primordial Spirit, which flew back into Pearson’s body.

Carson Flores’s gaze shifted to Angelo Howard beside him. Angelo Howard pleaded desperately, "He is a Great Demon, and I am only at Divinity Transformation. If I had not agreed to surrender, I would have died immediately. I really had no choice..."

Carson Flores walked over to Angelo Howard, replying with a calm expression, "Maybe your surrender to the Demon Race was really under duress, but nobody forced you when you killed the Parrish brothers, right?"

Angelo Howard became panicked immediately — no matter how much he tried to justify it, there was no plausible excuse for that act.

"I was just greedy at that moment. Human Emperor, please spare my life, I will do anything you ask..."

Carson Flores shook his head calmly, "I promised Otto Parrish justice, and you must die."
