Chapter 1517
Diewumeng folded her arms, watching this splendid show she herself had directed; otherwise, how could snatching heads be so easy?
Lan Tiansheng's actions successfully provoked the scorpion demon general, killing his two brothers; this score naturally won't be settled, he can't defeat Diewumeng, but what are you, Lan Tiansheng, daring to kill his brothers?
Thus he kept chasing and trying to kill Lan Tiansheng, but in vain he couldn't catch him; Lan Tiansheng hid, leaving no trace for anyone to find, and the scorpion demon general seized the chance to flee rather than truly pursue Lan Tiansheng—knowing he couldn't win, he was very smart and chose to run.
Staying behind basically means death; rather than uselessly sacrificing, it's better to go back, regroup, make a comeback, and later avenge the brothers.
Seeing he wanted to flee, Lan Tiansheng quickly appeared beside Diewumeng and urged, "Diewumeng, he's about to run; this person cannot be allowed to run—we must detain him, otherwise later anyone could enter the Mangshan Mountain Range, and everyone would come provoke us."
"Killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, we must let them know the Mangshan Mountain Range is not open to just anyone—if one comes in, kill one; kill until they're afraid, and then those people naturally won't dare enter."
Diewumeng pointed at the scorpion demon general's retreating figure and said, "Then go chase him—his escape speed is very fast; if you don't chase, you might really let him get away."
"I can't catch up, you know—I'm not good at speed."
Lan Tiansheng: "……"
Just listen to this talk—this woman is starting again, hiding herself and deliberately spreading weaknesses so others will believe them.
Lan Tiansheng wouldn't believe such nonsense—whoever believes it is a big fool.
"Diewumeng, act quickly—if you're slower, he'll really get away."
Diewumeng waved her hand: "Alright, don't rush—someone will go handle him, no need for us to act."
Lan Tiansheng narrowed his eyes; around, the demon kings seemed one less—Black Tiger and Bai Xinlan were still in place, while the Bee King had disappeared sometime; compared to speed, no one in the Mangshan Mountain Range could match the Bee King, and when the Bee King acts it's basically a sure thing.
Just a scorpion demon general—against the Bee King, it's still not enough to matter.
After a quarter hour, the Bee King returned, holding a monster pill.
"Diewumeng, here you go."
The monster pill was given to Diewumeng, along with the scorpion demon general's corpse—both thrown to her; this is his credential and his attitude.
The scorpion demon general's corpse was hidden by him in his own storage spiritual artifact—he wouldn't waste such a good thing, knowing Diewumeng needed these corpses, he naturally brought them back for her.
"Bee King, you did very well—I'm satisfied." Diewumeng knew the Bee King was a smart person, knowing what to do and what not to do.
At such times, he is very smart and also tactful.
He acted immediately, without needing Diewumeng to give orders—as for the other two, they weren't that smart.
"Diewumeng, you are the Mangshan Demon Emperor; the Five Poison Demon Generals daring to act against you is looking down on our Mangshan Demon Palace, looking down on us demon kings—if we let him get away, where would we put our face?"
"Lan Tiansheng has already acted; if I still don't act, that would be clueless."
He decided to act only after seeing Lan Tiansheng act.
Lan Tiansheng is a very cunning and smart person, always able to choose the right path—and the Bee King is likewise.
He who knows the times is a hero.
Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, he immediately changed his attitude and position, moving toward Diewumeng instead of continuing to be obstinate like the other two.
"Haha, everyone says the Bee King is a smart person who knows when to make the right choice—looking now, it's indeed so." Diewumeng is very pleased with the Bee King's attitude; this old immortal is too smart, no wonder he's lived to this day.
The other demon kings cannot be as shameless as he, nor can they let go of face and dignity.
"All thanks to the Demon Empress's teachings." The Bee King flattered, having seen Diewumeng's strength—this woman will sooner or later take that step.
Possibly in the recent few years, she will take that step.
By then, wanting to get close to him won't be so easy.
Now is the most suitable time.
"Hmph." Black Tiger walked over, gave a cold snort: "Wall-top grass."
He looks down very much on the Bee King's behavior—it's too embarrassing.
The Bee King felt no embarrassment, showed no displeasure; instead he smiled, keeping a smile.
"Diewumeng, what a tactic—even we were deceived by you; when did you use your divine ability?" Black Tiger had a dark face—this time he too was deceived.
When did the Mangshan Demon Palace become his illusion? He thought this time the Five Poison Demon Generals could make Diewumeng suffer a setback, but he never expected that after a few encounters, the Five Poison Demon Generals died.
Lan Tiansheng and the Bee King stood beside her; it's obvious the two have turned toward Diewumeng and will not change.
His own position is awkward; wanting to continue contending for that position raises the difficulty greatly.
"This isn't your business, Black Tiger." Diewumeng coldly said, "These people came to the Mangshan Demon Palace through your territory—you don't have anything to say?"
The route the Five Poison Demon Generals took was Black Tiger's territory—he couldn't have missed seeing them, yet he chose to let them pass.
This is Black Tiger's attitude.
Diewumeng will demand accountability; after the matter is settled, it's naturally impossible to let him off lightly.
"Hmph, I was in closed-door cultivation; it was only when they attacked the Mangshan Demon Palace that I emerged—it wasn't me who let them in." Black Tiger naturally couldn't admit it; admitting such a thing would be troublesome.
"Is that so?" Diewumeng narrowed her eyes, stared at Black Tiger, looked for a while, then waved her hand: "If that's the case, this time I won't ask about your responsibility; if there's a next time, you know what to do."
"Hmph." Black Tiger gave a cold snort, didn't directly answer the question, turned and left angrily.
Bai Xinlan saw this, slipped away secretly, not wanting to continue arguing with Diewumeng.
The Bee King also followed and left, leaving Lan Tiansheng and her; Lan Tiansheng laughed, "These people each have their own schemes, and they won't easily be convinced."
"Hmph, they're not a problem; once I take that step, these few people won't be worth worrying about." Diewumeng waved her hand—the bodies of the Five Poison Demon Generals are all good stuff; she wants to go again to Longshe Shan to exchange for some elixirs.
Keeping these corpses in her hand is also wasteful; plus those monster pills—one monster pill's effect is not as good as a Grade Six Elixir, while one monster pill can be exchanged with Qinglong Daoren for several Grade Six Elixirs; adding the flesh, a Grade Seven Elixir can also be exchanged.
Moreover, the savings of these five people are not small either—all came cheap for her.
"Diewumeng, remember my share." Lan Tiansheng shouted with a laugh.
Diewumeng was quite speechless, but she couldn't not give him—this person, who finally acted and killed someone, if he hadn't acted, Diewumeng wouldn't have given him elixirs.
"Understood."
