Chapter 819 - The Demon Realm’s Crisis (4)
Watching the trembling old body of the woman that’s making an almost praying gesture with those hands, the elders present all sighed at this picture. In the end they decide to spell the truth: “The queen hasn’t returned yet.”
In that instant Old Madam Huang seems to have aged considerably as her hands hung powerlessly back to her sides.
“Ma…” Feeling his heart tightening up, the tiger chief attempts to help support that unstable body: “Don’t worry Ma, Xiao Ying is with Her Highness so there’s nothing to fret. I’m sure they’re alright and will soon be back.”
Naturally this didn’t work despite the effort. She’s heard it many days already since that day her granddaughter ran away from home.
“What were you people doing just now?” Fourth Elder frowns as he eyed the bunch of unwelcomed intruders at the front.
According to the elder’s assessment, the girl in pink should be the one in charge despite the other seniors nearby being incredibly more powerful. It’s almost like he’s confronting a tsunami just by staring at their aura.
“Fourth Elder!” The tiger chief grits his teeth, “This bunch of bastards hurt my ma!”
Truth was, this filial son had wanted to send this old grandmother out to the human world as well in search of Huang Xiao Ying. However, age has always been a bitch when it came to travel so the notion was quickly dropped after putting all the details on the table.
“You people have already kidnapped a lot of us demons away during this time, why do you not spare even an old granny?” The one to cry out was the fifth elder. Beard shaking, this one had flames of hatred in his eyes.
The girl returns with a snarky smirk: “I did catch a lot of demon beasts to form contracts, that’s true. However, all those are too poor in terms of quality, hardly worth of my noble status!”
“What do you want then?” the fifth elder’s fist starts making a crunching sound from the tense grip.
“Very simple,” fiddling with a pang of her hair, the girl smiles brightly despite her next words. “I heard your king is very powerful. I’m sure he would make a wonderful pet for myself, how about that?”
Those arrogant words literally left everyone bulging their eyes out. To these demons, that fine contour only looked disgusting and grotesque because it’s not the face of a beautiful damsel, but an executioner….
Half a month ago when the seal to the realm shattered due to the eye being destroyed, it was this girl and her people who first charged in here and wreaked havoc across the land. Those who were most talented and young was immediately sent out to the human world in search of help, but for those who were slow and incapable of fleeing with the main body, they were promptly captured by these invaders. The ending for those poor souls were either death by torture or forcefully tamed by a blood contract, forever sealing their fate as slaves to be used at will.
