Chapter 2547: Even the Demon God Gets Hooked

~7 min read 1,202 words

Watching Huang Lao hook big catches twice in a row, the Heavenly Family Elder beside him was itching with envy.

What damned luck does this old thing have, hooking a catch every single time?

Another leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon was hooked away; now the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons inside the Mining Domain are completely unsettled, and several teams have fallen into chaos.

There's nothing they can do; they watched helplessly as the leader was mysteriously hooked away, and to this day they still don't know what happened.

"Quiet down."

Facing the gradually chaotic troops, the group of leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons below also shouted in a low voice.

The battle hasn't even started yet, but our formation is already in disarray—this is certainly not good news.

The group of leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons naturally needs to stabilize the situation as soon as possible.

However, if one pays attention, it's clear these leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons are also being cautious, not daring to get too close to the entrance.

After all, the two leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons hooked earlier haven't even cooled, and they still haven't figured out what's going on, so they naturally need to be more careful.

Under the soothing of the group of leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, the troops finally gradually calmed down.

Although they still harbor lingering fear, at least they've steadied their formation.

At the same time, the Demon God in charge of this Mining Domain came to the front of the formation.

The Demon God's appearance finally let the many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons breathe a sigh of relief and feel reassured.

After all, with the Demon God present, the many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons believed the humans couldn't stir up any waves.

Even if there were some strange methods, the Demon God could handle them on his own.

It seemed they had a backing; after looking around, this Demon God also asked in a low voice.

"What just happened?"

When those two leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons were hooked away earlier, the Demon God wasn't present, so he naturally didn't know what happened.

Upon hearing that, a leader-ranked Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon beside him said respectfully.

"Report to Demon God, the humans just used some unknown method to capture the two leaders."

"Huh???"

Upon hearing this, the Demon God's brows furrowed instantly: "Captured?"

What a joke—how could a human cultivator, right before the army formation, capture the leaders of these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons? And two of them at that.

Isn't this a joke?

A cold light flashed in its eyes; although it knows its subordinates wouldn't dare lie to it, this matter is indeed extremely strange.

How could they be captured so easily?

He immediately began to inquire in detail how the human cultivator captured those two leaders.

But when faced with the Demon God's questioning, the surrounding leaders couldn't explain anything.

They never saw any human presence from start to finish, and the humans indeed never entered the Mining Domain; otherwise they would have immediately attacked and surrounded them, not let these humans act so arrogantly.

But the problem is, they didn't see anything clearly, and then those two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons just vanished—utterly absurd.

Upon hearing the leaders' answers, this Demon God spoke in an icy tone.

"You saw nothing—could it be that my Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon leaders just vanished for no reason?"

Obviously he's extremely dissatisfied with that answer—how could you see nothing and then say they're gone?

Could it be they didn't even put up any resistance?

Just as this Demon God wore an extremely cold expression, suddenly a big hook was flung in from the entrance.

The Demon God had his back to the entrance, but a leader saw the big hook shooting out from outside.

Moreover, this big hook was heading straight for Esteemed Demon God, and that leader immediately exclaimed.

"Demon God, be careful!"

"Huh???"

Seeing his subordinates' terrified expressions, this Demon God was also bewildered, unable to react in time to what happened.

However, the next second he felt a sudden chill on his shoulder, as if something had hooked him.

Exactly the same routine, a familiar scene—watching that pitch-black big hook precisely hook the Demon God's shoulder, the surrounding leaders were dumbfounded.

No, are these humans really that arrogant? Even hooking the Demon God—you've gone too far.

Earlier the two leaders were mysteriously hooked away, which was bad enough, but now their Demon God has come and even he got hooked.

In the panic, the leaders hadn't even had time to act before they hurriedly shouted.

"Demon God, be careful!"

As the words fell, the Demon God felt a huge force suddenly transmitted to his shoulder; that pitch-black big hook seemed to want to violently yank him out of the Mining Domain.

"Impudent."

This force, for the Demon God, has some effect but isn't lethal; at least trying to use this force to pull him out of the Mining Domain is pure fantasy.

However, the damage is minor, but the humiliation is extremely strong.

It was just preparing to launch a full counterattack, having just arrived at the front line and not yet had a chance to act, yet instead it got hooked by a big hook—what the heck is this?

A roar of anger, and fury surged in its heart.

At the same time, outside the Mining Domain, Huang Lao again flung his big hook, feeling another catch, and couldn't help but laugh happily.

"Haha, hooked!"

"Any more?"

Watching Huang Lao having a blast, the Heavenly Family Elder beside him was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

What's up with this old thing today? We all practice the Heavenly Hook Grand Method together, so why can't I get a hit, while this old thing flung three hooks and all three landed?

What damned luck, he cursed silently.

However, at this point Huang Lao naturally had no time to pay attention to him; sensing another hook, he laughed loudly and then exerted force fiercely.

Regarding the hook technique, he had long known it inside out; applying force was easy.

But this time, as Huang Lao exerted force, the other end of the hook showed no reaction at all.

It was nothing like the previous two smooth attempts; the thing opposite seemed utterly still, and no matter how Huang Lao pulled, the hook wouldn't budge an inch.

Seeing that there was still no movement, the Heavenly Family elder ancestor beside him had not yet realized the problem, merely speaking sourly.

"Once you've hooked it, pull! Don't wait for it to get away."

"You've already hooked it, why not reel it in? Delay will bring trouble."

"The Heavenly Hook Great Art says that once hooked, you must not give the opponent any chance to react; you must reel it in immediately, or you'll likely lose the hook."

But facing the Heavenly Family elder ancestor's words, Huang Lao's expression was complex, and he replied helplessly.

"I've reeled it in, but I can't pull it."

He also wondered, having used all his strength, yet the thing opposite remained utterly still—perhaps he had hooked something else.

Hearing this, the Heavenly Family elder ancestor also frowned slightly, "Can't you reel it in? You must have hooked it awry."
