Chapter 65 - King of Acting—Demon King of Wisdom
After hearing what the Demon King of Wickedness said, the other Demon Kings all felt a chill run through their hearts.
Yeah, only the Demon Emperor and six Demon Kings knew about the plan. How did these cultivators know about it?
Unless… there was a traitor amongst them!
The four Demon Kings looked at each other.
Finally, their gazes all shifted toward the Demon King of Wisdom.
The Demon King of Wisdom felt a chill. “Why are you all looking at me?”
The Demon King of Wrath sneered, “Before this operation, the five of us Demon Kings were always beside the Demon Emperor. You were the only one who went out to ‘lay the bait’. Only you had the chance to disclose information to the enemy!”
With his eyes bulging, the Demon King of Agony roared, “Wisdom, do you have anything else to say?!”
“You guys are actually suspicious of me?! I accomplished that mission perfectly. I didn’t let the Demon Emperor down at all. I’ve done nothing to be ashamed of!” the Demon King of Wisdom yelled furiously.
He had been forthright his entire life. Who would have thought that the other Demon Kings would be suspicious of him? How could he swallow this?
The cultivators sensed that there was discord between the Demon Kings, so they weren’t in a rush to attack.
An Lin heard their conversation and his eyes lit up. “This has got nothing to do with the Demon King of Wisdom. Your plan was revealed to us by another unknown Demon King!” he said loudly.
The Demon King of Wisdom was overjoyed upon hearing this. He couldn’t believe that the cultivator would actually speak for him. “See, even the cultivator says so. How can I be to blame?” he said emotionally.
However, contrary to his expectations, the other three Demon Kings’ expressions became even darker.
In fact, they were already exuding a murderous intent!
“Even human cultivators are speaking for you. The relationship between you guys must be quite good…”
The Demon King of Wickedness smiled without emotion. Bursts of black aura were already emanating from his huge sword.
A surging killing intent also started to emanate from the two other Demon Kings. Clearly, they were about to strike.
However, their target was not the human cultivators, it was the Demon King of Wisdom…
The Demon King of Wisdom teared up, feeling that he had been screwed over. He had no way of explaining himself.
Then, putting on an expression as if they had been exposed, Tian Lingling exclaimed, “Uncle Wisdom, since we’ve already been exposed, why are you still acting? Hurry and help us defeat the other three Demon Kings. Don’t worry, they won’t be able to escape!”
Hearing this, the Demon King of Wisdom felt a knot form in his chest. It was as if he had been trampled over by ten-thousand mythological beasts.
Acting? F*ck your acting!
And what’s with Uncle Wisdom?
Holy f*ck! If you act all friendly with me, I’m going to be killed!
“Very well, Demon King of Wisdom… your acting was quite good. Even now you still have a look of innocence. Your expressions are on point,” the Demon King of Wickedness chuckled and raised his sword.
“We underestimated you. Who knew that you hid yourself so well…” The blood skull that the Demon King of Agony was holding emitted a startling red glow.
“I have to admit that your acting skills are very good. All three of us were fooled by you!” The black demonic claws of the Demon King of Wrath crackled as they started accumulating energy.
The Demon King of Wisdom wanted to cry.
He never would’ve thought that in the eyes of others, the pinnacle of his acting would be at this moment…
“I swear that if I, the Demon King of Wisdom, am a traitor, then I’ll be struck by lightning!”
The Demon King of Wisdom went all out. There was no other way that he could prove himself, so he could only prove himself by making such an oath.
Boom!
A blue thunderbolt descended and struck the Demon King of Wisdom, charring him black.
…
“Holy f*ck!”
This time, not only were the demons shocked, even the human cultivators were frozen still.
Holy sh*t, he really got struck by lightning?!
Even Tian Lingling, who had dug the Demon King of Wisdom into a hole, widened her eyes in surprise and was unable to recover from the shock.
The Demon King of Wisdom was charred black and wisps of black smoke wafted from his mouth. He only wanted to say one thing, F*ck the Heavens!
Of course, this lightning didn’t appear from nowhere.
This was a move which An Lin had been preparing for a long time using his Lightning Manipulation Technique, and it was the ace up his sleeve. He didn’t expect for it to come in handy here…
The Thunder Essence Cultivation Method was a method based off of the fundamental essence of lightning. How could the techniques derived from it be simple?
Not only could this Lightning Manipulation Technique be hidden from cultivators of the Spirit Nurturing Stage and draw upon the lightning silently, but it could even continue to accumulate energy.
Of course, the strike just then was a fully powered up Lightning Manipulation Technique.
The Demon King of Wisdom was very strong and was only slightly injured by the lightning strike. The effect of the strike wasn’t too obvious.
However, the ensuing effect was very obvious…
“If I said that this was a coincidence, would you guys believe me?” the Demon King of Wisdom asked, his whole body trembling.
F*ck, he was struck by lightning right after he made the oath. He felt like he was about to go crazy!
The Demon King of Wickedness looked toward the sky. “Only the Demon Emperor can suddenly cast such lightning without us becoming aware! He has already given us a signal… Wisdom, die!”
The Demon King of Wisdom wanted to talk, yet the sword of the Demon King of Wickedness was already flying toward him, the bloody skull of the Demon King of Agony was already biting toward him, and the black demonic claws of the Demon King of Wrath were already grabbing toward him.
Immediately, the Demon King of Wisdom became caught in a desperate situation!
At this time, An Lin yelled loudly, “Let’s go! Brother Wisdom is in danger!”
The human cultivators were very cooperative and they all drew their weapons. “Kill! Protect Brother Wisdom!”
They started to charge toward the demons.
The Demon King of Wisdom almost got a heart attack. He really wanted to cry.
Brother Wisdom? Who the f*ck is your brother?!
These f*cking human cultivators are all Oscar actors!
Is it okay if I award each of you a little golden person? I beg you, please just let me go!
The three Demon Kings realized that the human cultivators really did start fighting in order to protect the Demon King of Wisdom. They gnashed their teeth in rage and started to use their most powerful moves!
No matter what, they had to kill this Demon King of Wisdom as soon as possible. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to soothe the fury in their hearts!
They could lose this battle, but the traitor had to die!
“Dull Flame Demonic Slash!” Raging black flames surged from the Demon King of Wickedness’ sword, and they destroyed the defensive spells of the Demon King of Wisdom.
“Pwah!”
The Demon King of Wisdom spat out blood and flew backward. Then, he saw a huge bloody skull ten feet in size biting toward him.
“Crimson Eyes Divine Spell!” A crimson light shot out from the Demon King of Wisdom’s crimson eyes, driving back the bloody skull.
Right at this moment, the Demon King of Wrath had already shifted behind the Demon King of Wisdom. Like sharp swords, his demonic claws stabbed into the Demon King of Wisdom’s back.
“Die you traitor!”
The Demon King of Wrath roared and his hands tore outwards!
Rip!
Just like that, the Demon King of Wisdom’s body was ripped into two!
Black blood sprayed into the sky, appearing as desolate as his miserable life.
The Demon King of Wrath had finally fulfilled the achievement of ripping a Demon King to shreds.
Seeing that the traitor had been killed, the Demon Kings finally felt appeased. They felt a lot more at ease and some of them even started laughing.
Being ‘one step too late’ in coming to Brother Wisdom’s aid and having to witness his tragic death, The Savior and the other Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivators beat their chest in sorrow and stamped their feet in regret.
The Demon King of Wisdom, the King of Acting, has fallen!
His fellow actors were overcome with grief, and their eyes became bloodshot as they battled feverishly.
This great battle continued on!
