Chapter 716: Where is my demon emperor?

Hearing Qin Shan Hai's words, He Hu Huang stood up with a look of contempt.

"Ha, a bunch of cowards who only hide in Myriad Monster Pass, this emperor was just lamenting the lack of a chance to deal with them; since they dare to come to their own doom, this emperor will grant them their wish—underlings, kill these humans!"

"Kill!"

At He Hu Huang's command, the myriad demon beasts on the scene surged forward to attack.

He Hu Huang glanced at Qi Xiong and his four companions, finding them unfamiliar but not giving it much thought, after all he commanded countless demon beasts.

Aside from the demon kings under his command, he paid no attention to other demon beasts.

"What are you still standing here for? Get going and kill the enemy!"

He snorted angrily, but at that moment Qi Xiong and his four had silently surrounded He Hu Huang, and they didn't answer his words.

Seeing these five fellows not only disobey his orders but also taking up positions that looked like they were encircling him, and that look in their eyes...

He slowly sensed something was off, but He Hu Huang didn't panic—after all, he was a demon emperor.

"Who are you? What is your purpose?"

He demanded in a low voice, but the response was Qi Xiong's low shout.

"Attack."

The other demon beasts had been lured away; now was the perfect moment to strike, and the formation disk had been secretly set up—if they moved quickly, the outside wouldn't notice anything.

Upon hearing that, Qing Shi, Hong Zun, Lin Potian, and Qin Shan Hai struck at once; as they moved, the secret technique they had been using could no longer be concealed, revealing the aura of human cultivators.

"Humans? Damn it..."

Seeing that the five figures before him were human cultivators in disguise, He Hu Huang flew into a rage.

How dare these humans act like this—instead of hiding like turtles in Myriad Monster Pass, they dare to run to his own garrison.

"What are they trying to do? Kill him?"

To be honest, after years of fighting the human race, demon powerhouses like He Hu Huang had long since grown proud hearts.

There was nothing to be done; the humans were simply too cowardly, and only grew more cowardly the more they fought.

This led many demon beasts to believe that humans feared them, otherwise why would they never dare to take the offensive?

But such a roar couldn't last long; as soon as they clashed, He Hu Huang's expression changed—Great Saint?

These fellows before him all had Great Saint cultivation?

Facing five Great Saints at once, even if He Hu Huang were supremely confident, he now knew he was no match.

While fighting, he looked for a chance to escape, but Qi Xiong and his four would not give him that opportunity.

"Take him down quickly—we don't have much time."

"Don't worry, it's taken care of."

"You dare.......... Do you really want to provoke an all-out war between the two races?"

He Hu Huang roared angrily; he now only wished these humans were a little more timid.

Too bad Qi Xiong and his four weren't the least bit timid; they ignored him completely, and their attacks grew ever fiercer.

The five held nothing back, so He Hu Huang was soon badly wounded.

Seeing Qin Shan Hai about to cleave He Hu Huang with a single blow, Lin Potian quickly moved to block it.

"You hothead again?"

"Why not let me kill it?"

"You're crazy—it's fresher alive."

Sealing their cultivation, binding them with the Demon-Binding Rope, bagging them— a series of moves the five performed with practiced ease.

As for He Hu Huang inside the bag, though he was still struggling wildly, in truth it was of no use.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go."

Qi Xiong hoisted the bag onto his shoulder and urged everyone to leave.

With the demon emperor in hand, the five vanished without a trace; after they left, the many demon beasts that had searched the mountains and forests for half a day finally realized something was wrong.

"Nobody?"

"Not a single person in sight—could it be that the crowd was too large to fit on the ground, so they climbed up the trees?"

"That's not an exaggeration; it's outright deception."

Nowhere could they see a person; the demon beasts were puzzled when suddenly one demon king seemed to recall something and shouted loudly.

"Just now, those five fellows—whose subordinates are they?"

They looked at each other; all the demon beasts said they didn't recognize them, had never seen them.

"Damn it, let's go back."

Seeing this, the demon king who had spoken gritted his teeth and said something, then rushed swiftly toward the stone cave.

There's another problem—those five demon beasts from earlier were definitely suspicious.

By now they seemed to have realized it, but it was too late—Qi Xiong and his group had already left, making pursuit impossible.

They brought a horde of demon beasts back to the stone cave, shouting a couple of times, but got no response whatsoever.

Now the demon emperor was all the more certain of his suspicion.

Without further ado, he charged into the stone cave and saw an empty scene with no one present.

"Demon emperor, where is my demon emperor? Where is my great big demon emperor?"

"Gone—at most a moment had passed, yet their He Hu Huang was gone."

Not a trace of He Hu Huang remained in the stone cave, and the five demon beasts from earlier had vanished as well.

"Damn it."

He gritted his teeth and cursed, wondering who had, in such a short time, taken his family's demon king away.

Even if this demon king could temporarily stay calm, the other demon beasts had already been stirred up.

The Demon Emperor is gone; this has never happened before.

You say that even if it were on the battlefield, everyone could still accept it, after all, no one can predict what will happen on the battlefield.

But this is the garrison, it's the garrison of the Bright Tiger Emperor.

Even like this, they could still be tied up?

Find them, we must find those five guys and rescue the Demon Emperor.

Our Demon Emperor, in his own garrison, was tied up by a group of people whose identity and motives are unknown; if this gets out, will the Bright Tiger Emperor's lineage still have any face?

Upon hearing this, the multitude of demon beasts echoed loudly, then hurriedly rushed out of the cave, searching everywhere for traces of the Bright Tiger Emperor.

However, such a search is obviously futile; given the nature of Qi Xiong and his four companions, once they've gotten hold of the provisions, could they possibly send them back?

The entire area outside the Myriad Demon Pass is in chaos right now; even if one stands on the city wall, one can clearly hear beast roars continually coming from the mountains and forests; countless demon beasts, for unknown reasons, are in extreme chaos, running wildly through the mountains and forests.

The few cultivators responsible for guarding looked curiously at the mountains and forests outside the pass, and asked doubtfully.

"What's wrong with these demon beasts? Could they be about to attack?"

"No, they seem mindless, showing no sign of an attack."

"Although their numbers are large, they really don't seem to intend to attack."

"Then what are they doing?"

"How would I know?"

Several people were extremely puzzled, while the many demon beasts in the mountains and forests, at this moment, the most frequently said sentence is:

"Where the heck is my Demon Emperor? I had such a big Demon Emperor sleeping soundly in the Dong Fu, and just saying it's gone makes it gone?"
