Hidden Blade

Chapter 104 Half Demon

Qingzhou, Yangliu Town.

Yangliu Town was just a small town on the border of Qingzhou, close to a hundred thousand mountains.

The demon race had already arrived at the 100,000 great mountains thousands of years ago, so they didn't dare to show their head. However, this place was still close to the 100,000 great mountains, and it was still inevitable that some small demons who didn't know the heavens and earth would occasionally come out to cause trouble.

Although there hadn't been any major disturbances, the young people in the town probably didn't want to stay here for a long time.

Therefore, apart from some old and young women and children, there were not many people in Yang Liu Town.

No one could have imagined that there was a cave in a dense forest near a hundred thousand mountains next to Yang Liu Town. The entrance to the cave was very small.

A black raven suddenly flew into the dense forest from afar. After wandering for a few times, it flew into the cave entrance. Who knew that the seemingly ordinary cave had a different cave entrance. The raven flew into it for a full half an hour. The dim scenery in front of it changed and suddenly became bright.

Beneath the entrance of the cave was a majestic underground palace.

The raven continued to move forward, passing through the palace gates.

In the end, the raven passed through the palaces and flew into the main hall.

The hall was extremely magnificent, but it was gloomy and empty. Several men dressed in black stood on both sides, silent like sculptures and gloomy like evil spirits.

On the high platform of the hall stood a golden figure. He could not see his appearance or clothes clearly, as if his body itself was made up of golden light. However, the golden light could not be said to be so noble and holy. Instead, it carried a faint howl of ghosts and gods, and it was extremely seeping.

At this time, the raven finally flew to the front of the hall, and then its body began to expand. When he landed, it surprisingly turned into a man dressed in purple.

"This subordinate Yuan Xiucheng pays his respects to Emperor Song Yama." That person shouted so loudly that he knelt down on one knee with a gloomy expression and a respectful tone.

"How are you doing with the Gu Forest?" The golden figure looked down at the man beneath his feet, his voice majestic.

"I have already killed all the useless monsters in the Gu Forest, and some important items are on their way back to the Palace." Yuan Xiucheng, the man who had many connections with Xu Han in the Dark Asura Palace, bowed his head and said.

"Oh." Hearing this, the golden figure nodded. "The matter of the flood dragon in Yanlai City has already been exposed. It won't be long before people with good intentions will find out about it in the Gu Forest. It won't be bad for the Dark Asura Palace's plans to get rid of the future troubles earlier."

"Apart from completing His Highness' instructions, the little one has also discovered something interesting in this Gu Forest." At that time, Yuan Xiucheng spoke again.

"Oh? What is it?" The golden figure asked, but there was not much emotional fluctuation in his tone.

At his level, there weren't many people in this world that could arouse his interest. Even the flood dragon that Zhu Xian had tried his best to obtain was nothing more than an ordinary dragon in his eyes. Therefore, he did not have much hope for what Yuan Xiucheng had said that was interesting.

Yuan Xiucheng didn't care about the golden figure. He stood up and clapped his hands.

A crisp sound echoed in the hall, and then a black cloud flew over from afar.

However, a group of ravens were flying towards this place with a black coffin in their hands.

The ravens flew to the center of the hall and threw the black cloth coffin down. Then, they turned into streaks of light and fled again.

Dong.

A soft sound echoed through the hall.

The coffin was set up in the middle of the hall, and a surging demonic aura rippled out of the hall at that time.

"Huh?" The golden figure's expression changed at that time. He seemed to have noticed something unusual.

His reaction caused Yuan Xiucheng to raise his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he walked straight to the coffin and waved his hand, removing the lid of the coffin.

Then, a figure appeared from the coffin. He had an unusually pale face, blood-red eyes, and a majestic demonic aura that was almost terrifying.

At this moment, he was looking at the crowd with his blood-colored eyes.

There was no anger or sadness in his eyes. There was only an icy coldness that was close to zero.

"This is?" The golden figure asked. There was an obvious tremor in his voice. It was obvious that the thing that appeared in the coffin in front of him was inconceivable and shocking even for Yama.

"I found something in the depths of the Gu Forest. It seems to be an Asura that Senior sent into the Gu Forest a few years ago to temper. Strangely, it didn't die. After absorbing the boundless demonic energy in the Gu Forest, it became like this." Yuan Xiucheng walked to the coffin and slowly introduced it to the golden figure.

The golden figure did not respond to Yuan Xiucheng's intentions. He walked step by step to the coffin, and the golden light beating around his body revealed all the ripples in his heart. As if he was admiring the most precious antique in the world, he carefully sized up the thing in front of him, not knowing whether it was a human or a demon, for fear that he would miss out on every detail.

"This is a Half Demon! The Half Demon that Senluo Palace has been trying to create for so many years has actually been accomplished by me." After confirming whether that thing was as he thought, the golden figure's body began to tremble. "If the imperial family of Da Chu had been able to refine this thing back then, how could they have welcomed the tragic scene of annihilating the country?"

He muttered to himself, his tone deep and deep.

"Your Highness, don't worry. I have already completely subdued it with yao refining techniques. This is the yao token." Yuan Xiucheng did not seem to have heard of the golden figure. He respectfully took out a purple token from his bosom and handed it to the golden figure.

Hearing this, the figure regained his senses and took the demon token. Then, he stared at the demon token blankly. After pondering for a long time, he finally calmed down the surging emotions in his heart.

"Yuan Xiucheng, you did a good job this time. Your subordinate's judge died from the flood dragon disaster in Yanlai City. From today onwards, you can take his place." He said solemnly.

Yuan Xiucheng was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly knelt down on one knee.

"Thank you, Your Highness. After all, I will go through fire and water for Your Highness. I will die without hesitation!"

"Oh." The golden figure nodded, but it was clear that his mind was no longer on Yuan Xiucheng. He turned around and once again stepped onto the high platform of the hall.

"With this Half Demon, even His Highness Prince Qinguang probably won't blame me for coming to Yan City." As he spoke, he suddenly seemed to remember something. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the silhouette standing in the middle of the hall, motionless like a stone statue. He asked with interest, "Oh right, what's your name?"

Hearing this, the figure raised his head and looked at the golden figure. His scarlet lips, which seemed to have been stained with blood, opened at that moment.

He said.

"Liu Sheng."
