Since little Zero was sleeping, no one spoke throughout the journey. The inside of the bus remained quiet.
Many demons gazed out of the window into the pitch-black world beyond.
Several demons quietly observed Chen Xing and Zero. Curiosity filled their hearts toward this new Demon King.
Among them, many demons had followed the previous ruler, Demon King Moran.
Back then, Demon King Moran had been quite the unconventional character. With his charisma, he not only won over male demons but even charmed the Succubi. Under his leadership, the Demon Realm had experienced its most peaceful century.
However, he eventually fell at the hands of schemers.
And as of now, even though Chen Xing hadn’t personally killed anyone, the demons present were filled with reverence for him.
Because he could conjure food out of thin air!
None of the previous 389 Demon Kings could materialize such a bounty of food. Food scarcity was a significant issue in the Demon Realm, leading them to heavily promote animal husbandry, breeding, and agriculture among the demons.
But that required hard work!
Chen Xing, on the other hand, allowed them to reap without sowing. It was truly astonishing!
Among these demons, there weren’t many who were diligent. It’s unclear how they’d feel when Chen Xing eventually dragged them off to Minghua City for labor…
Late at night…
Suddenly!
“Boom!”
An unexpected loud noise!
“Wow…”
Startled, little Zero shivered in Chen Xing’s embrace.
“Wuwu… Husband…” Instinctively, she clung to him.
“It’s okay, don’t be scared.”
Comforting her, Chen Xing also looked toward the source of the sound not far behind them. He gazed at the sleeping demon with some disbelief.
The demon had just exhaled a breath, then opened his mouth wide and took a deep inhale.
“Boom~”
The noise was just as loud as before!
This wasn’t snoring; it was more like thunder.
Chen Xing: “…”
He was speechless. Why did these demons have so many strange quirks?
Chen Xing narrowed his eyes and coldly observed the demon snoring.
The awake demons around were growing fearful upon seeing this.
In their minds: Oh no! They woke the king’s familiar!?
This is bad; the Demon King will be angry, won’t he!? Does this mean there won’t be any food tomorrow!?
The people around the sleeping demon even shook his seat, trying to wake him up.
But not only did he not wake up, he even slapped the person’s hand away.
Suddenly, Chen Xing gave a casual flick!
“Swoosh! Swoosh!”
Several pebbles shot out from his hand. They flew straight toward the snoring demon!
“Snap! Snap! Snap!”
The pebbles burst on the neck, face, and body of the sleeping demon, immediately making a mess.
The snoring demon then fell silent in an instant.
All the demons were shocked. Is he dead!?
Chen Xing had already turned his head.
Then, the faint sound of the demon’s breathing resumed. However, this time, there was no more snoring. It was very quiet.
He’s still alive!
But the surrounding demons wore even more fearful expressions.
What on earth!? It’s terrifying! Not being able to snore while sleeping! Then, what’s the point of sleeping!?
In the Demon Realm, a group of demons sleeping together would compete over who could snore the loudest – it was a symbol of strength. Rumors had it that the louder one’s snoring, the healthier their body was. So, some demons even envied those who snored loudly.
Chen Xing had directly deprived him of his snoring rights!
From now on, in terms of sleeping, he’d be the least imposing. Thus, he lost all dignity.
As a result, the people around him looked at him with pity. This guy was truly pitiable.
“Go back to sleep.” Chen Xing gently ruffled the head of the little cutie in his embrace.
“Mhm… Hehe, love you~”
The night passed without any words. And there was no more snoring.
Many demons didn’t dare to sleep. They were afraid of having their snoring rights taken away!
Others, who were extremely tired, naturally fell asleep, but it wasn’t long before they began to snore. However, before they made a sound, Chen Xing had already solved the problem.
So the whole night was peaceful and quiet.
With guidance from Gurtoto, and under San’er’s control, the bus was speeding at its highest velocity. As dawn broke, they had already reached the male demons’ base.
Chen Xing looked down; it was a vast and seemingly bottomless abyss!
However, in a daze, Chen Xing caught sight of a few points of light.
“Go down!” Gurtoto suddenly exclaimed.
Upon hearing this, San’er maneuvered the bus to descend directly. Soon, the vehicle plunged into the abyss and disappeared from view.
After descending for quite a while.
Finally!
Chen Xing saw some lights.
Amidst the darkness, there were numerous crimson dots.
They seemed to be the pupils of the demons. They stared from the shadows, making it incredibly eerie!
At this point, little Zero had woken up. Seeing those fierce and sinister crimson gazes, she felt scared and involuntarily moved away from the window.
“Turn on the lights.” Chen Xing said in a calm tone.
“Swoosh!”
A burst of white light flashed!
Dozens of lights on the bus suddenly illuminated.
In an instant, the dark underground space was brightly lit!
“Ah!!”
“Ah!”
The sudden brightness nearly blinded those demons’ eyes.
“Wow…”
Finally, little Zero could see clearly. She couldn’t help but exclaim in awe.
It was a city built on top of a cliff. It was reminiscent of the main city but with a different twist!
Unlike the main city, which ascended layer by layer, this Abyssal City descended layer by layer. Many houses were built on the cliff’s steep walls on each level. There were also numerous dug-out caves within the cliffs, seemingly used for construction.
However, the active area wasn’t very large. Activities here were severely restricted, unlike the exaggerated main city.
The intense white light illuminated the dark abyss. Numerous demons came out of their homes due to the sudden light, pausing to look around.
They stared in shock at the massive object that had descended from the sky.
“The Succubi are attacking!” Suddenly, someone shouted.
The voice reverberated through the abyss in an instant. The entire abyss instantly became bustling!
Upon hearing that the Succubi were attacking, everyone immediately ran to alert each other. They shouted as loudly as they could, attempting to wake up the demons who were still asleep and get them to flee for their lives.
Even the demons who were dead asleep would instantly awaken upon hearing the words “Succubi attack!” It was a nightmare from nearly a hundred years ago!
“Where are the Succubi?”
The shout from outside even woke up many sleeping demons inside the bus. They abruptly jumped up from their seats!
Their fear was evident from their actions.
But they quickly realized that they had arrived home!
They were just about to greet their fellow kin when they noticed that these demons were holding weapons and glaring at the flying bus.
Because the lights surrounded the bus, they couldn’t clearly see who was inside!
“Bring down this sky-faring behemoth!” One of them yelled.
“Swoosh!”
A massive battle axe was suddenly hurled by one of the demons. It spun as it flew towards Chen Xing’s flying bus.
At the same time, Chen Xing clearly sensed a peculiar sword aura. It was heading straight toward them!
Without even looking, he could tell that the sword aura was the most powerful one he had encountered in the Demon Realm. A single strike like this could easily split the bus in half!
How could that happen? It’s so much money after all!
So Chen Xing immediately opened the window, climbed onto the roof of the bus, and gripped his demonic blade. With a gentle swing,
“Boom!”
The two sword auras collided, causing a massive energy explosion.
It knocked everyone standing on the cliff off their feet.
However, the winner was Chen Xing!
At the same time, he also split the giant battle axe that had been hurled at them.
After being knocked down, everyone looked up at Chen Xing standing on the bus. One hand held little Zero, while the other gripped his demonic blade. With his head raised, he gazed calmly at the astonished demons.
“Uh…” Seeing this, little Zero thought that the battle had already ended!
Since the battle was over, everyone would surely want to clear up the misunderstanding. They shouldn’t fight anymore, otherwise Chen Xing might accidentally kill a few people!
Although little Zero wouldn’t stop him, she still wanted to resolve unnecessary conflicts on his behalf. She hesitated and said with a timid voice: “Don’t fight anymore! You’ll die if you continue!”
Demons: ???
What does she mean? Who is she looking down upon!? What a humiliation!
Feeling that just saying these words wasn’t enough, little Zero added: “My husband is the Demon King! You need to listen obediently! Don’t fight anymore!”
Demons: ???
To them, this statement meant: From now on, we are your rulers! Resistors will be mercilessly killed!
Then, one by one, they glared with hostility, now considering Chen Xing and little Zero as enemies!
Chen Xing chuckled softly: “Very well, you’ve successfully angered them.”
“Huh…?” Little Zero was confused and dared not speak further. She thought to herself: What’s going on… I came here to mediate, didn’t I?
“Buzz!”
A humming sound echoed once again in the abyss.
“Boom!”
A stronger sword aura than before came whistling in!
Chen Xing was taken aback; this sword strike was almost catching up to him.
The demons on the cliffs around them were invigorated by the sound of the sword humming.
“Here comes the Grand Swordmaster!”
“Great! Kill him!”
“Who’s this arrogant individual claiming to be the Demon King without reason!”
Chen Xing squinted his eyes, staring into the darkness in the distance. The sword aura originated from there.
If he remembered correctly, the Grand Swordmaster was likely the strongest in the realm of blades and swords in this world…
