Chapter 1471: Twin-Headed Demon Emperor, the Demon Emperor's Metamorphosis

~7 min read 1,202 words

The Mangshan Snake King lowered his head; unwilling as he was, what did it matter, admitting defeat as he was, what did it matter.

He ultimately lost control of his body, his soul was gradually eroded, unable to reclaim his body, he tried many times to no avail.

The Mangshan Snake King knew the Demon Emperor before him would give him no chance to counterattack, nor any chance to regain his body; he could only… obediently await death, with no opportunity left, before the Mangshan Demon Emperor he was nothing.

He seemed like… a person on the verge of death, merely a dying struggle.

He could do nothing but wait for death.

The Mangshan Snake King gave up struggling; he truly could not defeat him anymore, all of this was within his calculations, his resistance, his actions, were nothing but a joke.

"Shanmang, you've done quite well, better than I expected; if it weren't for Heaven's mandate upon me, you might really have killed me."

"Too bad, you're not good enough; you can't stare at my flesh like they do."

"When you devour my body, this is already destined; if my body were split among other demon kings, perhaps my plan would fail—blame your greed, for you want my whole body, leaving nothing for others."

"You, you're truly too greedy."

The greedy ultimately harm themselves through their greed.

The Mangshan Demon Emperor forced his soul to shrink upon the skull, step by step taking control of the whole body, then began to invade that skull; once he devoured the soul, the Mangshan Demon Emperor could command this body, undergo rebirth and metamorphosis.

He was no longer a bodiless demon emperor, but a true demon emperor.

The Mangshan Snake King's body, he had claimed.

"Hahaha, I see now—you were certain I was too greedy; indeed, you know me best."

"How will you deal with me?"

The Mangshan Snake King's final dignity lay in not bowing his head; with that last dignity he asked about his fate.

Death was unavoidable; he could not repeat the same mistake, he would inevitably… eradicate the roots.

"The ending, you haven't guessed it?" the Mangshan Demon Emperor pointed at him and said coldly, "Everything is already destined; why struggle?"

"Offer your soul and merge with me; you will still be you, you will remain the Mangshan Demon Emperor."

"Shanmang, come, offer everything to me."

"The Mangshan Demon Palace is ours; those other demon kings will once again crawl beneath our bodies."

The Mangshan Demon Emperor locked eyes with the Mangshan Snake King, fixed his soul, leaving him unable to flee or act.

His whole body turned blood-red, blood filled his form, and his surroundings were wrapped in a formation; countless patterns spread from his body up to his skull, then began to slow.

All of this was under his control; none could avoid or resolve it.

"If I bow my head, could you spare me a path to life?" the Mangshan Snake King made his final struggle; he did not wish to die just yet.

He wanted to live, to continue serving the Demon Emperor.

The Mangshan Demon Emperor sneered: "Heh, Shanmang, you're naive; you are no longer my subordinate, and I do not reuse those who betray me; from the moment you moved against me, this was already destined."

"Your path has only one option: death."

Those who betray themselves will surely betray again, a second and third time.

Do not hope for their conscience to flare, remaining loyal forever; some things that begin once will have a second and third occurrence.

The Mangshan Demon Emperor could not gamble, nor could he believe he would remain loyal to himself; that was impossible.

"Really impossible? I can offer everything, seek life." The Mangshan Snake King still unwilling to die, wanting to live, lowered his attitude greatly.

Where was his former arrogance and domineering attitude? Now he was humble as an ant.

To scrape by in survival, he felt no chill.

"Hehe, Shanmang, if you had been like this earlier, perhaps I would have spared you a path to life; alas, it's too late."

"You may die in peace."

That demon soul was wrapped and torn by the Mangshan Demon Emperor's demon soul.

As one waned and the other waxed, the Mangshan Demon Emperor's demon soul grew stronger while his weakened.

Lacking the power to resist, facing the Mangshan Demon Emperor's tearing, he could only watch, unable to do anything.

After the final demon soul was devoured, his body became that of the Mangshan Demon Emperor; the Mangshan Demon Emperor took control of this body, began further metamorphosis—one skull completed its transformation, the other not yet, needing swift change to gain greater combat power.

"This body is mine."

"I must accelerate my metamorphosis, then restore my strength."

"Dragon Soul Reincarnation Method."

"Turn."

His demon emperor began metamorphosis, together with his body; the Mangshan Demon King's body was enveloped by demonic energy, his demon soul devoured, becoming the catalyst for his transformation—all of this lay within his calculations.

On Longshe Shan.

Chen Chuyang received a message from his duplicate and smiled.

"The Mangshan Demon Palace is in chaos; that's perfect, the Wood Dragon Family is also in turmoil, allowing me to once again draw spiritual energy from Tianwai."

He appeared on the summit and activated the formation.

He activated the formation again, then drew spiritual energy from Tianwai; this time he remained very cautious, daring not to make too much disturbance.

The Pasture Dragon Family is now overwhelmed, with no mind for themselves; their thoughts are on Cangzhou and the Mangshan Demon Palace.

This is his opportunity, a very good one.

The previous two extractions were done very carefully; afterward Chen Chuyang dared not attempt a third, for the Pasture Dragon Family watched him, he must be careful, lest they discover what was happening here—now is the moment.

The formation opened, drawing spiritual energy.

On Longshe Shan, Shang Hongxue and Shang Hongchen stood together, looking up at the sky, both smiling.

"Hongchen sister, my husband has again opened the passage to Tianwai; a tide of spiritual energy is approaching, this is a good opportunity for our cultivation." Shang Hongxue said with a smile.

Shang Hongchen said speechlessly: "Hongxue, how many times have I told you to call me sister?"

Shang Hongxue waved her hand: "You are my younger sister; that is fact, and it has been decided."

"I am my husband's principal wife; you must know your place."

Shang Hongchen: "......"

She opened her mouth, not knowing how to rebut; clearly she is the older sister, although Shang Hongxue is Chen Chuyang's principal wife, thus the older sister, the elder sister of all women, her position is unshakable, no one can.

She could let her call Shang Hongxue older sister, but Shang Hongchen cannot do it; only inside the room will she call older sister; at that time, if she doesn't call older sister, she will be wildly targeted by both—those who know the times are outstanding—and Shang Hongchen, when she ought to lower her head, still will lower her head.

Otherwise, the one she faces could be a husband unleashing full firepower—that is not something she can bear alone.
