"This is forcing that Little Sparrow Demon to its death."
Outside the Holy Hall, the Cyan Dragon Emperor also immediately saw through the crux of the situation.
The other Demon Emperors quickly came to their senses.
"Indeed."
"Such a heavy treasure is precisely to make the Wushang Demon Emperor make up his mind."
"What will the Wushang Demon Emperor do?"
"Will he really risk incurring the wrath of everyone?"
"He will."
Miao Yu stared intently at the distant projection outside the Holy Hall, her delicate face clouded with worry.
"I've dealt with him before, and four words perfectly describe him: bold and ruthless."
"Looks like this time is truly dangerous."
Inside the Holy Hall, all the battlefields in the Chaos Zone had merged into one giant floating martial arts arena.
At this time, all other groups like the Demon King Group and the Demon Venerable Group had already finished their competitions.
The only thing left was this final climax.
The two people standing on the stage, one on the left and one on the right, had such a disparity in strength that it was truly astonishing.
Facing Cai Ying, the Wushang Demon Emperor slowly drew his Tier Nine Immortal Sword.
There was no madness or ferocity on his face, nor any sinister malice.
He seemed forever unruffled, graceful and poised.
"I don't want to kill you, a Ninth-grade Immortal Artifact Master capable of changing the history of the Demon Realm."
"But unfortunately, I already have a Tier Nine Immortal Sword."
He shook his head with a look of regret.
"And the final reward includes Tier Nine Immortal Armor; as for the Ultimate Level Immortal Treasure and Immortal Pill, I doubt you can offer them to me."
"So, you hold no value for me anymore."
Upon hearing this, Brother Cheng could hardly contain his glee.
Having gone easy on purpose, it truly dealt a heavy blow to the prestige of the Holy Hall.
Bringing down the Evangelical Assembly was a fierce response to what the disciples of the Feixian Sect suffered back then.
However, he personally hadn't fulfilled his desire to show off.
The King Bi hadn't participated in a single battle, so in the future, when people mention this Evangelical Assembly, they will mock the Holy Hall and also say this year's champion was undeserving.
He wished someone would engage in an actual fight.
Now, it was like getting a pillow when feeling sleepy.
"Quick, quick, quick, draw your sword! Get ready to fight!"
He sent a message urging Cai Ying.
But the quasi-emperors below were boiling over once again.
What?
Someone else wants to kill Master Cai Ying?
Not just the quasi-emperors, even several Demon Emperors couldn't stand it.
They also didn't have a Tier Nine Immortal Artifact and were eager for it.
"Wushang, what are you doing?"
"What do you want to do, courting death?"
"Get down here quickly!"
In response, the Wushang Demon Emperor was indifferent.
"Feel free to threaten. I'm different from them; I've been a loner for hundreds of billions of years, without any kin or followers."
"I don't need to concede when I can obtain more treasures with strength."
Hearing this, everyone really had no way to deal with him.
This guy was not someone they could threaten.
They could only soften their tone.
"Well, at least spare Master Cai Ying's life."
"Yes, don't cut off our path."
Whether Cai Ying could win first place was not important.
What was important was for her to survive without a scratch.
"That's probably not possible. My sword is indiscriminate." The Wushang Demon Emperor shook the Tier Nine Immortal Sword in his hand.
At this point, he was like someone holding a precious hostage.
Looking at the anxious faces below the stage, he was even more pleased.
Previously, the Holy Hall pleaded with him, and now he could use Cai Ying to blackmail this group of quasi-emperors. How thrilling is that?
"Wushang, what is it you want? Master Cai Ying has no grudge against you."
"Are you deliberately opposing us?"
The Wushang Demon Emperor's lips curled up slightly.
"I'm not daring to."
"It's just that this sword is very hard to control. Unless there's enough weight to press it down, it won't stay steady, wouldn't you agree?"
Such convoluted words might be hard to understand in the Demon Realm.
But the people in the Demon Realm grasped his meaning instantly.
They immediately understood what he meant: if you want me to spare Cai Ying's life, you need to pay up.
"Damn it!"
"What do you want?"
"There are so many of you here; if each person offers a treasure of enough weight, it'd crush me, wouldn't it?"
The Wushang Demon Emperor's smile grew wider.
"With such heavy weight, it should definitely press down my sword and make it gentle, so as not to harm Master Cai Ying."
Below the stage, there were at least 5,000 quasi-emperors and seven or eight Demon Emperors. None of these individuals wanted Cai Ying to die.
Although they couldn't offer a Tier Nine Immortal Artifact.
But if each contributed a treasure, combined, the value would surely exceed the first-place reward from the Holy Hall.
By then, he could casually push Cai Ying off the stage and still win first place smoothly.
Then he could win the first-place reward from the Holy Hall.
Extorting from both sides and profiting from both sides, wouldn't that be wonderful?
This Wushang Demon Emperor truly lived up to being bold and ruthless.
His lack of morals even left the Holy Hall Demon Emperors scornful.
"This damn thing, why wasn't he killed before?"
"Damn it, if only we had exterminated him back then!"
"What a scourge!"
But now, they couldn't interfere casually.
They could only grit their teeth, secretly planning not to let this scoundrel escape after the competition.
Meanwhile, the quasi-emperors below were all frowning, equally furious to the point of explosion.
"Have you thought it through?"
"My patience is limited, and I'm afraid I can't give you much time to hesitate..."
The Wushang Demon Emperor was still extorting, but Brother Cheng had run out of patience.
Come on, today's main character is Cai Ying.
When did it become your turn to jump around and steal the spotlight?
"Aim the sword at him!"
Upon receiving the message, Cai Ying didn't hesitate, pointing the long sword, Brother Cheng's Immortal Soul directly left the Sword Scabbard and went to kill.
"You can wait, but Master Cai Ying cannot..."
The Wushang Demon Emperor was still babbling, when suddenly his head buzzed.
Brother Cheng's sudden attack left him completely unprepared.
If he had time to properly set up his stance, he would have prepared defenses of Immortal Soul, while activating the Dharma Realm and Rule Brand.
By then, Cai Ying would definitely die once.
Maybe even Jiang Cheng would be exhausted to death.
But because he was only facing a Celestial Immortal and was caught off guard, the Wushang Demon Emperor had no time for these preparations.
Brother Cheng's invasion was countless times smoother than usual.
He perated into the depths of his Sea of Souls in the first instant.
It was only then that the Wushang Demon Emperor reacted.
But it was too late to deploy the Dharma Realm and Rule Brand.
Regardless of Immortal Power or Rule Attack, both require the Immortal Soul to mobilize.
Now, with the Sea of Souls under fierce attack, he couldn't spare the effort.
From an outsider's perspective, the two seemed to suddenly stop moving.
Without the Demon Lord's order, Cai Ying still obediently maintained her stance, pointing the sword at the opponent.
Meanwhile, the Wushang Demon Emperor was trapped in an extremely dangerous internal battle!
As his Sea of Souls was engulfed by massive waves, his horrified expression showed as he gathered his Immortal Soul Power to confront the invading enemy.
The next moment, the two forces of Immortal Souls collided head-on, crashing fiercely together!
