Chapter 736 - 666: Slaying the Gray Demon King

Chapter 736: Chapter 666: Slaying the Gray Demon King

This sentiment echoed in the hearts of many of the racial leaders.

The Yellow Demon King had led a vast coalition army to annihilate the Snake Race, but now the tables had turned, and he was the one being brutally beaten.

Who could have imagined the situation would take such a sudden turn?

"My six sisters, come with me. It’s time to congratulate the Snake Demon King."

"Furthermore, I will lend him a hand and help him ascend to the position of Lord Gong of the Yaoling Mountain Range. When that time comes, I hope he will remember this favor and treat our Fox Race kindly."

"Big Sister, is the race war really ending just like this? Shouldn’t we wait a little longer?"

A wise glint flashed in the Fox Immortal King’s eyes. "Once the dust has settled, there will be no point."

Without anyone realizing it, dark undercurrents began to surge among the various racial powers in the Yaoling Mountain Range. One by one, they started moving toward She Mountain.

........

Several hours passed. High in the sky, the King of the Snake Clan and his Battle Companions were still locked in a continuous, one-sided assault on the Yellow Demon King.

It had to be said, a Rank Three Peak Demon King was incredibly durable. Even Tu Xiao’an was surprised.

Of course, it wasn’t as if the Yellow Demon King had no chance to fight back, but his efforts were ultimately futile. Even in a one-on-one fight, Tu Xiao’an wouldn’t be much weaker than him.

And with the five Divine Beast Demon Kings assisting, the Yellow Demon King was beaten into a constant retreat, utterly unable to retaliate.

He wanted to call the Gray Demon King for help, but unfortunately, the Gray Demon King was in no better shape than he was.

Down on She Mountain, the coalition army was in disarray, uncertain of what to do. Should they continue their assault on the Snake Palace, or just sit back and watch the show?

Confusion...!

Suddenly, the sounds of a massive army engaged in slaughter erupted from outside She Mountain. An external force was attacking, clashing with the coalition army.

"The Leopard Race is willing to lend the Snake Race a hand! We will resist the coalition army’s invasion! Kill...!"

Countless leopards charged into the coalition army, carving a bloody path.

"The Antelope lineage is willing to lend the Snake Race a hand! Resist the coalition army’s invasion! We hail the Snake King! Kill...!"

"We..."

"We..."

All at once, many of the races that had been watching from the shadows in the Yaoling Mountain Range charged onto She Mountain, helping the Snake Race fight the coalition army.

The problem was, the coalition army’s morale had already collapsed. They had no will to fight. But the newly arrived racial forces charged in without a second thought, determined to fight them.

In an instant, a hundred or so small and medium-sized racial forces swarmed in, their numbers overwhelming. They turned She Mountain into a chaotic, crowded, and boisterous free-for-all.

Surprise flashed in Tu Xiao’an’s eyes as he watched from the sky, but he quickly understood. These races were all here to curry favor with the Snake Race.

Seeing the Yellow Demon King being so thoroughly crushed made many of the powerful leaders realize that the coalition army was doomed to fail.

Once the coalition army was defeated, the Snake Race’s prestige would become unparalleled and unassailable.

"You bastards! You dare oppose this King! Weasel lineage, kill them all! No mercy!"

The Yellow Demon King was so furious he could have coughed up blood. He issued an order for his Weasel lineage to counterattack with all their strength.

He might be on the losing end, but he hadn’t been defeated yet.

"The Spider Lineage withdraws from the coalition army!" The Forgotten Spider Lady Monarch, terrified, announced her decision in an instant, without a hint of hesitation.

Any later, and they would have become the enemy of the entire Yaoling Mountain Range.

The tide had completely turned.

The power of the Snake Race and its King was on full display for countless races to see. The might of the Divine Beasts alone was enough to overwhelm all opposition.

To continue opposing the Snake Race now was simply courting death.

"The Rhino Lineage withdraws from the coalition!" the Unicorn Demon King announced, following suit.

"The Dead Swamp Giant Ant Lineage withdraws from the coalition army!"

"The Bee Badger Lineage withdraws from the coalition army!"

"The Violent Bear Lineage withdraws from the coalition army!"

In an instant, all the living leaders of the Twelve Great Races announced their withdrawal. What was most infuriating for the Yellow Demon King was that, to curry favor, they turned around and started attacking the Weasel and Rat races.

Before they knew it, only the Weasels and Rats—the native clans of the Yellow Demon King and Gray Demon King—were left in a precarious position, with no path of retreat.

The slaughter on She Mountain grew even more tempestuous as nearly everyone turned their attacks on the Weasel and Rat races.

It was as if killing one more weasel or rat would earn them a little more favor with the Snake Race.

This was kicking a man while he was down.

"How dare they! How dare they!"

The Yellow Demon King spat out a mouthful of blood, his feral eyes locking viciously onto Tu Xiao’an. "Snake Demon King! The winner takes all. If you’re a man, fight this King one-on-one! If you win, you can have my Golden Core!"

’There’s still hope! They’re all just opportunists. As long as I kill the Snake Demon King, I still have a chance to turn this all around.’

Tu Xiao’an shook his head. "You can’t escape, and your Golden Core isn’t going anywhere either. You were right before, Yellow Demon King. This isn’t child’s play. This is a race war."

’The situation is completely in my favor. Why would I be so hot-headed as to fight him one-on-one? He’s like a vicious dog cornered in a dead end; all he can do is launch a desperate counterattack.’

’I won’t give him that chance.’

"Finish him," Tu Xiao’an said, his voice devoid of emotion.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The Cyan Dragon transformed into a streak of cyan light, shot toward the Yellow Demon King, and clamped its jaws around his left arm.

The White Tiger swept past, biting down on the Yellow Demon King’s right arm.

The Yellow Demon King was already heavily injured and his reactions were slow. He paled in fright.

At the same time, the Divine Ape’s terrifying tail extended impossibly long, wrapping around the Yellow Demon King’s neck and completely immobilizing him.

The Strong Bull Demon King laughed, "Haha...," as he pinned down the Yellow Demon King’s left leg.

The Northern Divine Black Tortoise restrained his right leg.

In an instant, all of the Yellow Demon King’s limbs were pinned, leaving him completely immobile.

It looked as if he were about to be drawn and quartered.

"Yellow Demon King, I’ll ask you now: do you submit?" Tu Xiao’an said, slowly flying over with the Heaven Swaying Sword in hand and gazing at him dispassionately.

"I, the Yellow Demon King, will not be defeated like this! All of you, get off me!"

Despite his depleted state, the Yellow Demon King let out a furious roar, and a boundless wave of Demon Qi erupted from his body.

However, his captors were all Divine Beast Level, and their strength was immense.

His struggles were futile. Besides, the previous beating had already severely depleted the Yellow Demon King’s Primordial Qi.

He was far from his peak condition.

"Look! The Yellow Demon King has been captured!"

"Is the most powerful Demon King in the Yaoling Mountain Range about to die at the hands of the Snake King?"

On She Mountain, countless Demons looked up in awe. A team of five great Divine Beast Demon Kings had restrained the Yellow Demon King’s arms and legs. Could there be any greater display of power?

’Even a God couldn’t escape from that, right?’

Just then, a terrifyingly massive snake skeleton spiraled up through the void, winding its way over. It then transformed into a wizened old man, who held the barely breathing Gray Demon King and thrust him before Tu Xiao’an.

"Cousin, even you...?" The Gray Demon King had been locked in a fierce battle with the Deep Mountain Demon King Level Bone-transforming Skeleton Snake, but the snake was simply too monstrous. He was no match for it.

Now that he was captured, he saw that the Yellow Demon King’s fate was no better than his own.

He looked like he was about to be drawn and quartered.

In an instant, the two great Deep Mountain Demon Kings had become brothers in misfortune.

Their defeat had come so quickly.

Seeing the Old Snake King arrive with the Gray Demon King attracted Tu Xiao’an’s attention. He smiled brilliantly and drifted over like a spring breeze to stand before the Gray Demon King. "You damn rat. This King thinks he’ll kill you first."

As he spoke, he placed the Heaven Swaying Sword on the Gray Demon King’s head.

"Snake Demon King, I was wrong! The Rat lineage is willing to submit to the Snake Race!" The Gray Demon King was enveloped by the fear of death, trembling uncontrollably. He had none of the domineering presence of a Deep Mountain Demon King.

Tu Xiao’an sneered. "I hate sneaky rats like you the most. Anyone else can live, but you have to die."

"Don’t kill me! I’m more useful to you alive than dead!" Clinging to life and fearing death was the nature of a rat—and, indeed, of all living things.

"But I just want you dead. Frustrating, isn’t it?"

’Seeing the Gray Demon King’s panicked state, I have the perfect opportunity to subdue him and make him a Battle Companion.’

’However, I don’t need any more Battle Companions right now. I’m not even interested in one at the Deep Mountain Demon King Level.’

’I’m much more interested in his Lifebound Golden Core. It can help me raise my Level.’

In the next moment, Tu Xiao’an turned to face She Mountain, his voice booming like a great bell. "All races of the Yaoling Mountain Range, listen well! Those who do not submit to the Snake Race will die!"

VMMMM...!

The Heaven Swaying Sword blazed with a brilliant light, and the ring of its blade soared into the sky.

"Gray Demon King... be slain...!"
