Chapter 1013

The Demon Emperor sat in his place, propping his chin, lost in thought.

"What on earth is going on? Why did this Lord come to my side?" the Demon Emperor muttered to himself, then fell into deep thought.

In no time, the Demon Emperor had made a decision.

"I'll see what you really want."

At this moment, the Death Lord was tightly surrounded by a group of demons.

Facing the demons' siege, the Death Lord was not panicked; instead, he chose to surrender.

"Don't kill my people. I'll go with you."

Hearing the Death Lord's words, the demons were somewhat surprised.

"What's going on? This guy actually isn't running away?"

"Who knows? No matter what, let's take this kid back first. My Lord has questions for him."

"Alright, take him away."

The Death Lord was immediately seized by the demons and taken to where the Demon Emperor was.

Seeing the Death Lord brought before him, the Demon Emperor stood up and asked, "Who are you?"

"Hmph. Just an obscure Lord."

Hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the Death Lord sneered and said.

"An obscure Lord?" The Demon Emperor heard the Death Lord's words and frowned. "What an obscure one. To be honest, among your Lords, I've never seen anyone as bold as you to come to my place."

"Speak. What do you want? If you can persuade me, I might spare your life. If you can't persuade me, I won't mind executing you directly." The Demon Emperor stared at the Death Lord and said coldly.

Hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the Death Lord looked at him with a sneer and said, "Just you?"

The Demon Emperor sneered, "Looks like your temper is quite stubborn. However, I have plenty of ways to make you talk."

The Demon Emperor raised his hand and waved lightly, saying to the demons outside the door, "I heard this kid brought people with him. Then there's no need to be polite. Kill all those people."

"As you command."

A group of demons received the order and rushed out one after another.

Panic appeared on the Death Lord's face.

"No, no, don't kill them, don't kill them. Let's talk properly. Let's talk properly." The Death Lord hurriedly said.

"Hmph." The Demon Emperor snorted and said, "Just now you were so stubborn, why are you cowardly now? However, I like it."

Hearing this, the Death Lord felt a wave of bitterness in his heart.

The Demon Emperor nodded in satisfaction, "Speak. Why did you come over here?"

The Death Lord said, "Because I angered other Lords and was forced to flee."

"Oh, such a thing actually happened?"

Hearing the Death Lord's words, a sharp light flashed in the Demon Emperor's eyes. He then looked at the Death Lord and asked, "Tell me, what exactly did you do wrong that caused their hatred?"

"Because I took a fancy to a woman, ended up sleeping with her. I thought she was some Lord's servant, so I didn't think much of it. I didn't expect she was actually one of the Lords' wives."

"So I had a dispute with the other party and accidentally killed him. All the Lords decided to kill me to quell their anger. I couldn't accept it, so I ran away."

Hearing the Death Lord's words, the Demon Emperor burst into loud laughter, looking at the Death Lord as if he were an idiot.

"Do you believe what you just said?"

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." The Death Lord said fearlessly, "Anyway, what I said is the truth."

"Haha, hahaha."

Hearing the Death Lord's words, the Demon Emperor couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.

"Hmph." The Demon Emperor's expression kept changing. After pondering for a moment, he looked at the Death Lord and said, "However, I find your behavior very interesting."

"But unfortunately, you still have to die. After all, who told you to be my enemy."

After finishing his words, the Demon Emperor shouted again, "Someone come!"

"Your subordinate is here."

"Take him out and behead him for public display."

Hearing the Demon Emperor's order, several demons immediately agreed, rushed to the Death Lord's side, and dragged him out.

"Wait, I don't want to die, I don't want to die. I'm willing to work for you. My strength is very powerful. I have intelligence I can give you." The Death Lord struggled and shouted for help.

Just then, the Demon Emperor's voice rang out, "Wait."

Hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the several demons immediately stopped.

"Bring him over."

"Yes!"

Hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the several demons immediately dragged the Death Lord over, threw him before the Demon Emperor, and made him kneel on the ground.

The Demon Emperor looked at the kneeling Death Lord, his face showing a cold expression.

"I give you three minutes to tell me everything, or you will die without a burial place."

The Demon Emperor's words were filled with intense killing intent.

Hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the Death Lord's body trembled, and his face was filled with fear.

"I'll speak, I'll speak everything. But you must guarantee one thing: after you know what you want to know, you cannot kill me or my people."

The Death Lord looked at the Demon Emperor and pleaded for mercy.

Hearing the Death Lord's words, the Demon Emperor nodded and said, "Rest assured. Since you are willing to cooperate, we will absolutely not touch you."

"Speak!"

Hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the Death Lord took a deep breath and then said.

"In Lord Chenxi's territory, many Lords from various regions have gathered. For convenient management, everyone elected a Supreme Lord, and this person's name is Li Yue."

The Death Lord spoke slowly, telling the Demon Emperor everything he knew.

Of course, the half-true, half-false, and murky nature of the matter made the Demon Emperor begin to feel uncertain.

"Is everything you said true?" the Demon Emperor asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Of course it is true. How would I dare deceive you?" the Death Lord hurriedly replied.

Hearing the Death Lord's words, the Demon Emperor said, "You had better not lie to me; I have ways to verify what you say. If I find out you deceived me, I will make you understand that living is a sin."

With those words spoken, the Demon Emperor called out again, "Someone come! Take him and his subordinates and lock them all up in the dungeon."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the Demon Emperor's order, several Demon Soldiers responded and then led the Death Lord and his people away.

Inside the main hall of the Demon Palace, after the Death Lord was taken away, the Demon Emperor immediately spoke: "Do you think what that young man said is true or false?"
