Chapter 579 - 579: Ruling the Heavenly Demon Cult

The chaos in the Sun Moon Sacred Cult continued for an hour before everything came to an end.

Without being able to escape through the formation, the disciples of the righteous faction became like turtles caught in a jar. With the madness that was unleashed by the disciples of the Sun Moon Sacred Cult, the orthodox sect disciples were quickly killed.

" Ahem, so… I guess I am the Heavenly Demon now?" Jun Tianyun scratched his chin as he looked at the Bright Moon Maiden.

" You…"

Qin Yuyue looked at Jun Tianyun with a complicated expression. She was still shocked by how the Nine Sky Demon Sword was lying docile in Jun Tianyun's hand.

Jun Tianyun sensed her gaze, laughing lightly. " Don't worry. Maybe if you reach the realm of sword intent and completely master your bloodline power, and… Hmm, reach the pinnacle of Houtian Realm with your technique, maybe then… You can control this sword?"

" Yo-You!" Qin Yuyue grimaced when she heard Jun Tianyun's teasing, " Ugh! If you can wield that sword, just wield it. Why must you make me jealous? And, you just came to the cult today. And you think you can just become cult leader?"

" I can't?" Jun Tianyun pretended to be confused as he stared at Brightmoon Maiden.

Brightmoon Maiden scratched her head, " Well, technically, he is part of our cult as he is your betrothed fiancé. And he has been acknowledged by the divine sword too. So…"

" Well, let me dress appropriately." Jun Tianyun grinned. " After all, a Heavenly Demon must look like one."

Instantly, Jun Tianyun took a step forward as a crimson radiance engulfed him, like a sphere made from mist. When he stepped out, Jun Tianyun's attire changed entirely.

Long hair flowed with a tint of blood radiance, broad shoulders, a pitch black dragon robe adorned his masculine body. The robe fabric was luscious black, with blazing crimson patterns flared around, like a spider lily blooming on the road of hell. His eyes turned a dreamy blend of purple and blue, striking with his handsome face. As if with his eyes, he could see through everything.

" This… You can already use the true demon qi?" Bright Moon Maiden almost choked when he saw the flowing qi around Jun Tianyun.

It was smooth like silk, but it carried a smell of burning blood and iron. Jun Tianyun looked at it and shrugged, " This? This is just an imitation of origin true qi."

" What you use as demonic qi and true demonic qi, is just a crude interpretation of a grand technique."

With a snap of his finger, the silver flame around Bright Moon Maiden appeared before Jun Tianyun, landing on his palm. It swayed gently, like a docile puppy, making the Bright Moon Maiden and everyone who saw it stunned.

" This…You already reached Transcendent Demon Realm?" Bright Moon Maiden asked in a quivering voice.

Transcendent Demon Realm is the title given to those who reached Xiantian Realm. Jun Tianyun merely smiled as he passed the silver flame back to Bright Moon Maiden. " We will talk about that later. For now, let me address my new subjects."

*BOOOOM!*

" Everyone! Attention!"

The crimson aura moved like a raging tide, covering the entire pavilion. Jun Tianyun's voice echoed like a clap of thunder, making every martial artist stand at their place with utter fear and obedience.

Jun Tianyun's eyes swept through the pavilion, looking at everyone with a smile.

" My name is Jun Tianyun. I am the eldest Young Master of Jun Clan of Blackwind Mountain. And now, I am your new cult leader."

" Since this happened so suddenly, does anyone have any objection?" Jun Tianyun asked calmly, " Anyone who wishes to object may stand up and fight. If you win, the seat will belong to you."

" No! Esteemed Cult Leader!"

" All hail Cult Leader!"

The demonic martial artists looked at each other with wry smiles. Going against him? Even when Jun Tianyun was standing and simply looking at them, the overwhelming pressure was enough to make them kneel on the spot.

Not to mention, being chosen by the Nine Sky Demon Sword was enough to convince more than half of them. After all, how could a cult martial artist not know about the divine sword, which is a symbol of pure authority and dominion?

Also, as demonic martial artists, they know the difference in quality of demonic qi, making them feel what kind of energy Jun Tianyun has.

Then Jun Tianyun turned to the elders, looking at them with a placid face. " Now, what about you guys? Any objections?"

" No, Cult Leader!"

All the elders got on their knees instantly, shouting their answers to Jun Tianyun. Even the War Demon, colluding with that bastard Song Mingwu, was also bowing without any resistance.

Jun Tianyun snapped his fingers as several threads of red qi shot towards the elders, drilling into their foreheads instantly.

" I don't know how many of you are loyal or traitors. However, from this moment on, I am giving you a second chance." Jun Tianyun spoke in a calm voice. " Serve the Heavenly Demon Cult well for ten years, and then you can go wherever you want."

Everyone were stunned when they heard Jun Tianyun's words. Especially the first elder, his expression was a mix of many emotions.

Jun Tianyun chuckled darkly, " But, don't take my generosity as my weakness, though. I left a bit of my qi inside you guys. If I sense even a thought of betrayal…"

Song Mingwu was still alive, though he was lying like a dead fish. Suddenly, his body started to float. Fighting before everyone's eyes, his head exploded like a watermelon.

Shrugging, Jun Tianyun explained casually, " The small restriction I placed in your heads. I hope no one has any doubts regarding it?"

All six elders felt a chill in their spines when they saw the scene. They couldn't feel any qi fluctuations at all, yet Song Mingwu died just like that.

Jun Tianyun turned around and looked at the disciples of the cult again. " Those who have killed the most today shall be rewarded tomorrow. Everyone, go back now and rest properly for today."

With a single step, Jun Tianyun disappeared, leaving everyone standing in awe.

" Hahaha, pour some more. Today is such a big day after all."

" Hmm, they should have already taken away the sword by now."

In a beautiful garden, a few people were gathered, sitting around a stone table. An old man in a white daoist robe poured wine to everyone. " Heh, the Heavenly Demon Cult must be in turmoil now."

" Hahaha, it took so many years to carry out such a plan." A middle aged man with a robust body laughed loudly. " Alas, I wonder about the divine martial arts of heavenly demon."

" It should be only inside the Heavenly Ascension Cave." Old Deng shook his head. " Unless all Three Stars of Central Plains gather and do an expedition, it is unknown what's inside that cursed place."

" However, as long as we get the Nine Sky Demon Sword, we can naturally get that origin true qi, along with the key piece of the puzzle."

Suddenly, the Old Deng trembled as he hurriedly looked at his hand. The crystal bracelet he wore, the beads on it, shattered instantly.

" Huh? What happened, Old Deng?"

" Dead… They all are…dead." Old Deng's expression turned pale as he hurriedly took out a conch.

" Master Deng! The soul lamp of Nine Fist Lord and others has been shattered!" The conch echoed as someone spoke with a panicked voice.

Everyone in that garden was stunned when they heard it. Old Deng suddenly bit his thumb, drawing out blood. He smeared the blood on his eyes, then looked at the sky.

*COUGH! COUGH!*

Suddenly, blood spilled from his mouth as Old Deng fell on his knees.

" Heavenly Demon! There is a…new Heavenly Demon!"
