At this moment Zhou Chen also noticed the changes in the Demon Lord, because he felt that the suction covering him suddenly became much weaker.
At this moment, the Demon Lord suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and the suction force covering his body completely dissipated. Zhou Chen looked up at the Demon Lord and found that blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth.
At the same time, a finger pointed at Zhou Chen and said, "You are plotting against me."
Zhou Chen was also confused, “What’s going on? Why did this Demon Lord suddenly vomit blood? Is there something wrong with his martial arts?”
Zhou Chen never thought that it was a problem with the black ice in his body, because he had obtained the black ice for so long and had never encountered any accidents because of it.
The Demon Lord was extremely angry at this time, and he wanted to slap the hateful guy to death, but the fire in his body had not yet been extinguished, and a new poisonous gas rushed into his body, destroying his body wantonly, making him unable to move.
Faced with the equally weak Zhou Chen, he had no idea what to do. He then shouted "Go to the right" to the outside of the secret room.
Hearing him calling for help, Zhou Chen thought it was not good and it was all over. However, after waiting for a long time, there was no response at all. This secret room was protected by a soundproofing formation, but the Demon Lord had used a secret method just now. Even with the soundproofing formation, the sound could still be heard by Xiang Wentian.
There was no response at this time. Either Xiang Wentian was not nearby, or something unexpected happened outside.
I had clearly told Xiang Wentian before that he would protect me outside, so there was almost no possibility that he would leave. Then there was only one possibility, and I thought of what Xiang Wentian had reported before.
"It seems that Zhao Xiaoqing is plotting against me. That woman is indeed good at using poison."
Zhou Chen also heard his words at such a close distance, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked in his heart, "It seems that Zhao Xiaoqing poisoned me in advance, but I have only met him once. When did he poison me? Was it the time we met before?"
At this time, the secret door of the secret room was directly broken open by a violent force. The two of them looked towards the door of the secret room. At this time, the deputy hall master Zhao Xiaoqing appeared at the door of the secret room. The Demon Lord looked at Zhao Xiaoqing fiercely.
Zhao Xiaoqing said with a smile, "Why is your Majesty looking at me like that?"
"Huh, how despicable! You actually use such means to deal with me? If you have the guts, wait until I recover from my injuries and have a fair fight with you."
Hearing the words of the Demon Lord, Zhao Xiaoqing could not help but laugh out loud, "Hahaha, Your Majesty, there is no such thing as fairness or unfairness in this world. As long as you can achieve your goal, that's fine. If it was me who fought against Emperor Xia last time, then Emperor Xia would definitely be the loser."
The Demon Lord had a look of disdain on his face, but Zhao Xiaoqing didn't care, "Your Majesty, there is fire poison in your body. Now with the addition of my black flame, it is even more poisonous. There is no possibility of survival for you."
"If you have any last wishes, please tell us." As he spoke, he walked towards the Demon Lord and did not even look at Zhou Chen when he passed by him.
In his eyes, a small character like Zhou Chen is not worthy of being taken seriously. If Zhao Xiaoqing had not wanted to use him before, he would not have gone to see him. Now that his value has been used up, what happens next depends on his own fate.
The Demon Lord also knew his current situation and stopped arguing. "Ah, I'm tired after so many years. Since you want the position of Demon Lord, I can give it to you. But I just hope you don't hurt Huan Ji." After saying that, he looked up at Zhao Xiaoqing.
After hearing the Demon Lord's last words, Zhao Xiaoqing grabbed his neck and said coldly, "Now that you've said it, you can die. As for your daughter, I'll let her go down to accompany you later."
Hearing his son's words, the Demon Lord became extremely angry, and the demonic energy in his body gushed out. However, it did not have much effect. With his current strength, he was no match for Zhao Xiaoqing.
Zhao Xiaoqing just opened his mouth wide and swallowed the evil spirit emanating from his body into his own mouth. In an instant, Zhao Xiaoqing's strength suddenly skyrocketed. A wave of air gushed out, and Zhou Chen was directly blown away. The room also turned into nothingness at this moment.
Huan Ji was trapped in her room at this time, and she didn't know what was happening outside. She was still thinking about how to explain to Zhou Chen. At this moment, she felt that the formation that trapped her suddenly disappeared. Before she could react, a guardian walked in. She also knew the current situation in the demon world, and the guardian in front of her was her father's confidant.
"Why are you here, Eagle Protector?"
"Miss, please leave quickly. The deputy hall master is rebelling." He then briefly told Huan Ji what had happened.
After hearing this, Huan Ji did not follow his words and escape from the Demon Realm, but rushed directly towards the Demon Lord's residence.
When he arrived, he saw that the Demon Lord was strangled by Zhao Xiaoqing. Zhao Xiaoqing had devoured the Demon Lord's original demonic energy to improve his cultivation. Now he only had his last breath left.
After seeing his daughter, he exerted his last bit of strength and poured all the evil energy in his body into Zhao Xiaoqing's body.
Suddenly, a large amount of original demonic energy surged in. Even though Zhao Xiaoqing was extremely powerful, he found it difficult to digest it for a while. He immediately let go of the Demon Lord's neck and involuntarily took a few steps back.
Seeing Huan Ji's arrival, Zhou Chen did not feel any joy in his heart, but only anger. He hated the daughter of the Demon Lord for taking Leng Yiyao's body. He wanted to kill him, but he was sucked too hard by the Demon Lord before.
Even though the black ice was still in his body, he was still too weak and it would take some time for him to recover.
He could only watch Huan Ji leap past him and rush towards Zhao Xiaoqing. However, with Zhao Xiaoqing's strength, even if he was tricked by the Demon Lord, he was still no match for him.
Zhao Xiaoqing just released a trace of demonic energy, which directly repelled Huan Ji, whose strength had reached the first rank. He was well aware of Huan Ji's strength. He, a first rank master, could be repelled with just one move, which showed how strong Zhao Xiaoqing was.
Huan Ji fell heavily to the ground and spit out blood. Zhao Xiaoqing had made all the preparations to find a day, and those subordinates who did not surrender to him were basically poisoned by him.
Even the right-hand man Xiang Wentian was poisoned by him without anyone noticing.
At this time, the entire imperial capital was under his control. The Demon Lord's strength had been almost devoured by Zhao Xiaoqing. His originally young face quickly aged until he became a white-haired old man.
The Demon Lord looked at his daughter and said, "Huan Ji, don't worry about me, just go away." However, Huan Ji already had no chance to escape.
All his loyal subordinates have been poisoned at this moment.
Zhao Xiaoqing also suppressed the violent demonic energy at this moment, "Haha, Your Majesty, don't worry, after I have resolved all this, I will lead my demon clan's descendants to dominate the entire continent and fulfill your unfulfilled ambition, and you can rest in peace."
"Can you please let Huan Ji go?"
At this moment, Huan Ji wanted to stand up again, but she was injured just now and had no strength to fight again.
"I'm sorry, sir. Miss is extremely talented. She has reached the first level of cultivation at such a young age. It is not impossible for her to break through the shackles and step into the holy realm in the future. I cannot let this accident happen, even if it is just a possibility." (End of this chapter)
