Chapter 289 - Botanic Demon
He secretly flew towards the Western Border, and in no time, Chen Chen reached the demon territory.
The Western Border had always been in contact with the demons' territory, which was also the reason why the Western Border became the main battlefield.
When he entered the demon border, Chen Chen completely concealed his aura. Compared to before, he had more precise control over his physical body after reaching the Essence Soul realm.
The aura of his body almost completely blended in with Heaven and Earth, without a single trace of a human aura.
It was probably comparable to the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord who had infiltrated the demons' territory.
However, his vision turned dark after he entered the demons' territory.
He had a specific map of the demon territory in his storage ring, but the demon territory was extremely large. Flying while looking at the map would really hinder the process and slow him down.
Chen Chen put away the map and began searching his surroundings with his divine senses, only to see many small demons appearing within the scope of his divine senses.
However, he didn't bother to deal with those small demons because their cultivation levels were probably too low for them to know much about him, a human.
After flying west for thousands of kilometers, an Essence Soul realm Demon King finally appeared in his divine senses.
The Nascent Soul realm Demon King had a parrot head and was flying excitedly towards the human territory, seemingly carrying great ambition and dreams.
Without saying another word, Chen Chen reached his hand out into the Little Carefree Immortal Palace.
Seeing the sudden change in front of him, the Parrot Demon King was dumbfounded, and his jaw dropped as he couldn't figure out what was going on.
Chen Chen glanced at him coldly and questioned, "Do you know where the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan is?"
"Human!"
Upon seeing Chen Chen's face, the Parrot Demon King was so shocked that many feathers on his body stood on ends.
However, in the next second, he regained his composure and revealed a fawning smile.
"Senior, let's talk things over calmly, why did you pretend to be a human and scare me like that? We're really timid, and we can't take frights like this."
Chen Chen's face turned sullen, and he hollered furiously, "Who's pretending to be a human? I'm asking you a question so you'd better answer me properly."
The Parrot Demon King nodded and then glanced at Chen Chen's ungloved hand.
Chen Chen silently retracted his yellow hand and hid it inside his sleeve, his gaze becoming colder and colder.
"Senior...the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox clan is one of the eight major demon clans. I naturally know where their territory is, but I heard that they recently closed their mountain abode and seem to be selecting the successor for the next clan leader. If you go now, they might stop us from entering."
The Parrot Demon King had a smile on his face, but the gaze in his eyes was rather complicated when he looked at Chen Chen, seemingly thinking about something.
Chen Chen probably had some conjectures in his heart when he heard this.
He reckoned that Hu Xian'er had more likely than not, been embroiled in this mess. The leader of the eight demon clans was a highly authoritative figure. In order to vie for this position, the members of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan have had various internal strifes that were probably not inferior to those that happen within the royal family of the humans.
Hu Xian'er was a demon who didn't grow up in the demon territory or had a powerful background. Once she got embroiled in the power struggle, she would probably die at any moment.
"What's going on with the leader of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan today? Why did he only remember to choose a successor now?"
Chen Chen continued to ask.
The Parrot Demon King smiled with some suspicion in his eyes. 'This matter is known to all in the demon race. Why isn't this Lord aware?'
Seeing this, Chen Chen took off his mask to reveal his yellowish but austere face.
The Parrot Demon King was startled by his face, and he quickly took a few steps back before asking, "Lord, is it okay if I address you as Lemon Demon Emperor?"
As soon as he said that, Chen Chen slapped him hard on his face, causing him to flip backwards with a few somersaults.
"I've just returned from the front line, I don't have time to chat with you. Just answer the question I asked you. If you dare to babble any more nonsense, I'll smack you dead!"
The Parrot Demon King stood firm and shuddered.
Botanic Demon Emperors were extremely rare, and rumor had it that they were all very mild-mannered. Hence, the Parrot Demon King couldn't help but wonder, 'Why is this Lemon Demon Emperor so violent and hot-tempered? Why does he want to get into a fight at the slightest disagreement?'
Covering his face, he began to explain aggrievedly.
"The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan...didn't perform well during the war between two races so the higher-ups of the Demon G.o.d Hall issued a punishment for them. The Heavenly Fox Demon Venerable is an untamed and nonchalant person who doesn't like meddling much in the affairs of the clan in the first place. The fact that he relayed news back to us straight from the front line shows that he doesn't want to be the clan leader anymore..."
Hearing the Parrot Demon King's explanation, Chen Chen seemed to be in thought, but a moment later, he looked up at the Parrot Demon King.
"Take me to the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox clan."
The Parrot Demon King subconsciously wanted to raise a question, but when he recalled what Chen Chen said, he quickly changed his mind.
"Yes, Lord Lemon Demon Emperor!"
Smack!
He gave him another slap that smacked him out of the Little Carefree Immortal Palace.
After exiting the Little Carefree Immortal Palace, the Parrot Demon King transformed into his original body under Chen Chen's intimidation.
Chen Chen then rightfully sat on his body and summoned the little morning glory.
"Little morning glory, if he deliberately shows us the wrong way and leads us to somewhere else, just say so, and I'll crush his head."
After the little morning glory, Xiao Hua, heard his words, the morning glory on its head began to shake a little as its eyes were full of confusion.
'Where is this place? I don't know this place at all, how can I tell if it's wrong or not?'
Xiao Hua was confused as the Parrot Demon King below was trembling in fear as he hurriedly changed the direction a little.
He originally wanted to take Chen Chen, the "Lemon Demon Emperor" back to his clan so that the clan elders could have some interaction with him but to his surprise, Chen Chen brought something along to identify the route.
It was a rare Plant Demon too!
That made him even more convinced that Chen Chen was a Botanic Demon Emperor.
"Xiao Hua, do I really look like a lemon spirit?"
Chen Chen whispered softly using his divine senses.
The morning glory on Xiao Hua's head nodded seriously a few times.
Hearing her words, Chen Chen hurriedly pulled out a mirror and scrutinized his face again.
He was completely hairless, and his skin was nothing but yellow. Although the color had faded a little compared to when he transcended the tribulation, he still looked very much like a walking lemon.
If not for his exquisite and well-defined features, Chen Chen would have whipped out a knife to slice himself up into lemon slices for tea.
Chen Chen had no tears to cry even though he wanted to. In this lifetime, he had always been the subject of envy, and he had never been jealous of others before.
'Why did I become a lemon spirit?'
'Although the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique stated that I would turn into a Golden Body, it didn't specify that it would be to such a terrible extent!'
...
"Stop!"
Before they covered 5,000 kilometers, a stern voice suddenly came from one of the mountains. Immediately afterwards, a Black Bear Demon Emperor blocked the Parrot Demon King.
"Lord of the Heaven-Shaking Wild Bear Clan... What do you want?"
The Parrot Demon King was in a complicated mood as he wondered just how he was so unlucky to have encountered two Essence Soul realm Demon Emperors one after another. Worse yet, the one he was facing now was a Demon Emperor of one of the eight great demon clans.
Such an inherently powerful Demon Emperor could exterminate him easily.
The Heaven-Shaking Wild Bear Demon Emperor did not look at the Parrot Demon King but instead, looked at Chen Chen with a greedy gaze.
"Are you a Botanic Demon?"
The Parrot Demon King trembled at that.
Botanic Demons were very rare in the demon treasures, and one of the most important reasons was that most of the Botanic Demons gained sentience and transformed from heavenly treasures. Many of them had been secretly captured and eaten by other demon clans.
In particular, the eight major demon clans had the highest consumption of Botanic Demons so their relations.h.i.+p was absolutely strained!
"None of your business! Get the h.e.l.l out of here!"
Chen Chen was in a foul mood. 'What does the type of demon I am have anything to do with this black bear? Why must he stop to check my ident.i.ty?'
"How dare you talk to me like that! Do you know who I am?"
The Heaven-Shaking Wild Bear raised his knife and tried to slash Chen Chen without hesitation after seeing how poor his att.i.tude was.
He was worried about lacking an excuse to strike, but he never thought that Chen Chen would dig his own grave!
Chen Chen didn't dodge and instead, remained seated calmly on the Parrot Demon King's back.
Dong!
In the next second, the knife collided with Chen Chen's skull with a crisp sound, and they seemed to have tied.
The Parrot Demon King underneath was thrown off balance, and he was so frightened that many of his feathers fell out.
The Heaven-Shaking Wild Bear's jaw dropped at that.
'Is this Botanic Demon some walnut that gained sentience? Otherwise, how can his head be so hard?'
'Walnut...'
Thinking of this, the Heaven-Shaking Wild Bear swallowed his saliva.
Walnut-type treasures were said to be able to enhance the level of divine senses and were extremely rare.
He didn't expect to encounter one today.
Bang!
Before he could continue to think, a golden hand slapped towards him.
Its speed was so fast that the Heaven-Shaking Wild Bear didn't even have time to react before he was smacked and thrown down from the sky.
Soon after, he was locked securely in the Little Carefree Immortal Palace by Chen Chen.
"Continue moving."
Chen Chen ordered coldly after getting back on the Parrot Demon King's back.
The Parrot Demon King was soullessly scared, and he nodded profusely while looking at Chen Chen with a scrupulous gaze.
'No wonder this Lemon Demon Emperor dares to walk around so brazenly. Turns out that he's so terrifyingly strong! I'm afraid...he has an extraordinary background!'
