“Plop!”

Gurtoto was the first to kneel.

He was a veteran who had fought on the battlefield alongside the previous King, Demon King Moran. He was considered the most experienced here. By kneeling first, he demonstrated that he had completely surrendered, prostrating himself.

“Plop!”

Fifty million demon warriors knelt simultaneously. But no one made a sound.

Because Chen Xing didn’t want them to make noise.

Even so, if seen from the sky, the scene was still quite spectacular!

Afterward, the succubi standing in the front row also began to kneel one after another. Row after row, they knelt in succession.

The entire arena was filled with people bowing their heads, acknowledging their allegiance, and welcoming the new king’s ascension.

【Ding~ Congratulations, host, for eradicating the great monster, Eight-Forked Serpent. Rewards: Spirit Points: 1 billion, Crystal Coins: 1 billion 】

【Acquired Title: Snake King. Attribute: Possesses Snake King’s deterrent effect against all snake-type demons beasts, spirit beasts, monsters…】

【Ding~ Congratulations, host, for achieving the ultimate achievement of the Demon Dimension! Rewards: Spirit Points: 10 million, Crystal Coins: 20 million! Demon Dimension Ultimate Gift Pack*1!】

“How stingy…” Chen Xing couldn’t help but complain.

For achieving the ultimate achievement, he only got 10 million Spirit Points?

As for the gift pack, he didn’t open it right now. He planned to open it back in Minghua City since there was a 50% luck boost there. There would be a chance to get hidden rewards.

After a while, the system didn’t distribute any more rewards.

Chen Xing lowered his head and looked at his demon warriors. He said in a calm tone: “I said I am the king. Is there anyone who disagrees?”

Silence filled the arena!

One hundred and fifty million warriors, no one dared to speak. They didn’t even dare to take a breath.

Chen Xing nodded in satisfaction, just about to speak.

“Roar!”

Next to him, Lord Dian’er had finally had enough of crying. He let out a furious roar.

Chen Xing: ???

What’s with you if you don’t agree?

“Squeak!”

The sharp sound pierced people’s eardrums painfully!

???

“San’er? Can you translate that?”

【… How would I know what he’s saying?】

Chen Xing helplessly pursed his lips and loudly asked through San’er’s speaker: “What’s wrong, Xue… ah, mouse?”

“Squeak!!!”

Lord Dian’er roared furiously once again, then fiercely lunged at Chen Xing! Mouth agape, he was ready to attack!

Chen Xing: ???

The crowd of demons: “Protect the Demon King! Kill this audacious beast!”

“No need, don’t bother.” Chen Xing said indifferently, then leaped off the bus.

“Bang!”

“Boom!”

He punched Lord Dian’er, slamming him to the ground! There was a loud bang.

“What’s wrong with you? Big Black Mouse?” Little Zero anxiously shouted.

Wasn’t this big black mouse supposed to be…. funny and cute?

“Weren’t we playing happily together? Why did you attack us?” Little Zero was very puzzled, not understanding what had happened.

If Lord Dian’er were clear-headed, he would definitely scold her: “Happiness my foot! Every day you’re either pulling my fur, kicking me, or squeezing me like crazy! You’re having fun, but I’m not!”

After being hammered to the ground, Lord Dian’er attempted to stand up. The blow just now had struck him on the top of the head, leaving him dazed.

He wanted to get up, but it took her a moment to regain his senses.

“Squeak!” Suddenly, a tiny mouse squeak sounded.

Chen Xing looked down.

Wasn’t this… Lord Dian’er’s wife from before?

The little mouse squeaked twice, then leaped onto Chen Xing’s vehicle. It kept squeaking non-stop!

Chen Xing: ???

Language barrier is an issue!

“Do you have an animal language?”

【Yes, it costs 100 million Spirit Points. Not recommended.】

【What does it matter? Isn’t it tasty when stewed in a soup?】

Chen Xing nodded, thinking it made sense.

However, suddenly the voice little Zero in his arms sounded: “No! Big Black Mouse is so pitiful. He lost his wife! You’re not allowed to eat her!”

Chen Xing was immediately speechless: “Alright, alright, I won’t.”

【Ding~ Deducting 100 million Spirit Points! Learned: Universal Animal Language!】

“Uh… I want it too! Hehe…”

Little Zero happily bounced in Chen Xing’s arms. Being able to talk to animals sounded so interesting!

【Ding~ Language implantation complete.】

After hearing this, little Zero climbed down from Chen Xing. Then she squatted beside the little mouse, smiling gently as she asked: “What’s wrong with you?”

The mouse was suddenly able to understand little Zero’s speech, which clearly surprised her. But she quickly regained her composure: “Save Lord Dian’er! Please!”

“What’s wrong with him?” Although little Zero was worried, being able to talk to animals was truly joyful. So her face was filled with smiles.

“He… his son died… he was smashed to death!”

“Uh…” Little Zero was momentarily stunned, then turned to look at Chen Xing.

Chen Xing: ＝。＝…

This… has nothing to do with me!

Then Chen Xing directly asked: “So, how did he end up like this?”

The mouse: “I don’t know either. He was injured, and then we ran out of the arena. Then he kept shouting that he wanted to eat some ‘Li Minghua’… he just wouldn’t listen to me at all…”

“Then he stopped speaking human language, just kept squeaking… Seems like there’s some serious illness… no, it’s more like he can’t speak human language anymore.”

“Uh…” After listening, little Zero looked up at Chen Xing. She stood up and gently pulled at the hem of his clothes: “Shall we help the big black mouse?”

Chen Xing nodded. Then he spoke to Lord Dian’er through the speaker: “Why are you going crazy?”

Lord Dian’er had just climbed up from the ground at this moment. Hearing Chen Xing’s words, he roared furiously: “Li Minghua! My wife! My son!”

And then he once again pounced towards Chen Xing.

With a slight frown, Chen Xing thought that it was probably because he had lost his wife and child. Overwhelmed with grief, he had become consumed by darkness. This could also explain why he had cried so miserably just now!

But… what’s this Li Minghua?

San’er explained: 【Li Minghua is a special seasoning in Minghua City.】

“Oh… I remember now.”

【Wasn’t it because it ate that stuff that it mutated?】

【Probably hasn’t had it in a while, so it went through withdrawal!】

“Tsk tsk…” Chen Xing hadn’t expected that something like withdrawal from that stuff could be so terrifying. Directly going berserk!?

“Buy some for it.”

As he finished speaking, the online shopping interface appeared. Chen Xing directly opened the online shopping store of Minghua City. He found Li Minghua.

He couldn’t help but furrow his brow—this stuff was sold by the gram!? One gram for one crystal coin!?

Chen Xing glanced at Lord Dian’er. Considering his current size, if he bought too little, it might not be enough for him to eat. So he directly bought a ton.

A thousand kilograms! A total of 1 million crystal coins!

By now, Lord Dian’er had already flown up to him. He opened his blood-red mouth wide, as if he wanted to swallow Chen Xing whole. His appearance was unrecognizable with his consciousness was in chaos.

Seeing this, Chen Xing lightly leaped and directly landed on top of his head. Then, from the system space, he took out all the Li Minghua and poured a ton of it into Lord Dian’er’s mouth.

However, it didn’t fill up his entire mouth! This alone was enough to show how terrifying his size had become.

After that, Chen Xing directly punched him under the jaw, “Shut up!”

“Crack!” His blood-spraying mouth suddenly snapped shut.

Then Chen Xing punched him again, causing him to fly backwards. At the same time, he swallowed the ton of Li Minghua.

“Boom!”

Lord Dian’er fell to the ground again. He squeaked in pain.

“Damn, it hurts so much!”

This time, he wasn’t just squeaking! He was speaking human language!

Little Zero immediately felt happy seeing this: “Big black mouse!”

After hearing Zero’s voice, Lord Dian’er looked at the two of them with some surprise.

As his thoughts turned, in his vague memory, he seemed to have seen a snake mother with seven heads and eight necks.

But she was so damn beautiful!

“Oh, right! There’s a beautiful snake nearby!” After saying that, he quickly looked around.

A seven-headed beautiful snake! To bring home as a wife! Truly enticing!

Chen Xing: “…”

He found it really hard to believe. The one who had just been crying for a wife and child was this guy. He said calmly: “I killed her.”

Lord Dian’er: …

????

“Why did you kill her?”

Chen Xing shrugged: “If I didn’t kill her, she would have killed you.”

Lord Dian’er nodded with his massive head. He had already accepted this setting.

His wife was gone, he could find another one. It’s alright…

Then he lifted his head and asked: “Where’s the body?”

Chen Xing frowned upon hearing this and said: “Why are you so fixated on bodies?”

“Huge feast! Seven heads worth of brains!”

Chen Xing couldn’t help but laugh and cry at this point. This guy…

He was beyond speechless.

What an extraordinary character!

“The scattered meat on the ground is probably from it.”

Lord Dian’er glanced and exclaimed, “Wow, what a feast!”

“You even helped me cut it up neatly, no needles required!”

“Whoosh!”

The massive black mouse disappeared from view. In its place was a small black lump.

Chen Xing suspected that its stomach was a black hole. Where did the ton of Li Minghua it just ate go? Now Lord Dian’er was only the size of a palm. There was no way to tell that it had just eaten so much.

The demons present couldn’t understand what Chen Xing and Lord Dian’er were saying. But admiration was all they felt in their hearts!

The Demon King could actually communicate with demon beasts! Truly worthy of being the Demon King!

Seeing the demons kneeling and bowing before Chen Xing, Lord Dian’er felt somewhat surprised, but he didn’t pay much attention to it. It didn’t concern him; he was only focused on finding his next wife.

Just a moment ago, the little mouse that came to save him had already left. After Lord Dian’er returned to normal, she felt relieved. After all, they had been a couple for a day. She had done her part!

It must be said that this little mouse was even more humane than some people!

As for Lord Dian’er… he had already forgotten about the little mouse. But then again, he wasn’t originally human…

Rolling around on the ground, Lord Dian’er reached a piece of meat. He picked it up gently, brought it to his mouth, and sniffed it, “Hmm… so bloody.”

“Whatever… huge feast…” After saying that, he stuffed it into his mouth.

Little Zero was surprised: “You actually have a nose!”

Lord Dian’er: “…”

Chewing on the raw meat, he replied, “Are you polite? I just have a small one!”

Chen Xing chuckled, “Even hook noses count!”

Lord Dian’er: ?????

He was about to retort when suddenly, his entire body inflated like a balloon!

“OH SH*T!”

“Help!”

In the blink of an eye, his body had swelled to the size of a several-meter-wide sphere!

Everyone: ?????

“Wow!” Startled, Little Zero quickly shook Chen Xing’s arm.

“Mouse… the mouse is gonna explode!”
