Chapter 511: The Dragon God Is Also a God
"It seems your companions are discussing how to rescue you."
On the shattered earth, Li Ang gazed at the three demons chatting on the distant hill, gently placing his hand on Leviathan's shoulder.
Feeling the weight on her shoulder, the black-haired girl in her magical girl outfit shuddered.
Recalling what had just happened, Leviathan couldn't help feeling a twinge of regret.
If she'd known, she'd have willingly given her blood—she wouldn't have been beaten and drained of a whole jar of it.
Seeing Leviathan's timid expression, Li Ang silently shook his head—it made him feel like the villain.
But barging into someone's home and beating them up really did sound like villainous behavior.
Yet Li Ang would never admit it; so far, he'd held back. After all, with his power, killing Sazex and Leviathan wasn't difficult at all.
On the other side, the demons stared at the young man standing beside Leviathan, their feet glued to the ground, too terrified to approach.
After witnessing what had just happened, only a fool would go near and seek death.
Without caring what her subordinates were thinking, the silver-haired maid turned to the red-haired girl beside her and asked with slight concern: "Lyais, are you alright?"
The female demon named Grifia was Sazex's wife and also this Demon Lord's 【Empress】.
By the way, she had once been a member of the 【Jiumowang Sect】.
At this, Lyais slightly shook her head: "I'm fine, it's just my brother—"
Though the Dragon God had not removed her restraints, the cataclysmic battle moments ago had not touched her.
But more than her own safety, the girl now worried about her brother, who had been blasted somewhere unknown.
"Don't worry about your brother—he's currently discussing next steps with Lord Beelzebub and the others." As Sazex's demon pawn, Grifia naturally knew her husband's current state: "It's just unclear what it will take to make this Divine One leave."
The silver-haired maid knew well: if initially only the blood of the Four Demons could make him depart, now it would require far greater sacrifice.
Even if he struck first.
But the world is simply unjust—this Dragon God Divine One has already been quite reasonable.
Hearing her sister-in-law's words, Lyais fell silent.
At this moment, for some reason, the red-haired girl's mind flashed with those faintly golden-glowing heterochromatic eyes—eyes that had only moments ago wounded her own brother.
Watching Leviathan, the other Demon Lord beside her brother, now restrained just like herself, Lyais murmured inwardly: 'So powerful.'
From the start to the end of the battle, this Dragon God Divine One had displayed many abilities she'd never seen before, and she vaguely realized much of them were activated through his eyes.
The red-haired girl wasn't unfamiliar with similar abilities—after all, this world possessed the power known as 【Evil Gaze】.
But compared to this Divine One's eyes, those other eyes were as weak as fireflies.
Of course they were.
Before the divine eyes born from the Ōtsutsuki clan's planetary cultivation, nearly all eye-based abilities in this world paled in comparison—only the 【True Death Demon Eyes】, another cheat ability, could even compare.
Just as Lyais was lost in thought, the battlefield's atmosphere grew tense.
Fortunately, this tension didn't last long—Sazex appeared on the field with two figures in tow.
Feeling the gaze upon him, the red-haired Demon Lord lowered his head slightly and spoke humbly: "Since the Divine One has obtained Leviathan's blood, may I ask if you will release her?"
He then stepped forward, offering two vials of blood: "These are the bloods of Beelzebub and Asmodeus—our apology. Please accept them."
Though he spoke thus, Sazex remained tense, ready for battle at any moment.
Li Ang stared at the two vials offered before him, his expression unchanged.
After a brief silence, he used his Rinne Sharingan to make the two vials float to his side: "You're sensible."
Seeing the dragon accept the vials, Sazex and the other two felt a silent sigh of relief.
For them, avoiding further escalation was the best outcome—giving away blood was a small price.
Worried the two vials weren't enough, Sazex continued: "What other demands does the Divine One have? We will fulfill them all."
"No need."
Li Ang removed his hand from Leviathan's shoulder and pushed her toward Sazex and the other two.
Seeing this, Sazex and the others froze—they never expected this Dragon God Divine One to be so reasonable.
But before they could react, a voice suddenly echoed in their ears.
"But I'm taking your sister with me."
As he spoke, Li Ang stepped into the 【Huang Quan】.
At this, Sazex whipped his head toward Lyais—and saw a black fissure swallow her whole.
"Lyais!"
The red-haired Demon Lord's eyes widened, and he shot forward like a crimson meteor toward his sister.
But as soon as he moved, the black fissure had already fully consumed Lyais—and vanished into thin air.
Grifia had also tried to rescue the girl, but to no avail.
Seeing this, Sazex's face darkened with unbearable humiliation.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, trying to calm himself—but could not.
Behind him, Leviathan rubbed her slightly aching shoulder and exchanged glances with the two other demons beside her.
Normally, if surrendering one upper-tier demon could appease the Dragon God Divine One, it would be a bargain.
But the problem is, this upper-tier demon's brother is Sazex—the powerful Demon Lord who inherited the name Luxi.
And such a powerful being, capable of swaying the entire demon race's decisions, is a total sister fanatic.
Though Sazex usually kept personal and official matters separate, who knew if he could remain calm when his sister was involved?
【What do we do now? Who's going to calm Sazex down before he acts rashly?】
【I just got beaten—do you really expect me to go?】
【Sigh, if I could choose, I'd rather have that Divine One take you, Leviathan.】
【?】
At this moment, Leviathan and the other two exchanged frantic glances, momentarily at a loss.
Why did that Dragon God take anyone else but Lyais? Why her? They hadn't noticed anything unusual about the girl at all.
'Could it be because of her appearance?'
The three Demon Lords couldn't help but murmur inwardly.
Just as they pondered how to safeguard their comrade, a teasing voice suddenly rang out: "What a grand spectacle you've put on, Saze."
Before the voice faded, countless crimson demonic bullets shot into the sky.
Facing this furious assault, the middle-aged man with six pairs of jet-black wings dodged aside, then patted his chest with a sigh of relief: "Don't be so fiery, Sazex."
"Azazel."
Sazex looked up at the sky and muttered the man's name with a dark expression.
Meanwhile, the other three Demon Lords instantly grew serious.
Asmodeus stepped forward and said gravely: "Azazel, what are you doing here?"
Upon hearing this, Azazel first shrugged, then pointed at the devastated earth: "You've made such a commotion—I, as Viceroy of the Fallen Angels, had to come see what happened, didn't I?"
"…"
Hearing his explanation, the demons present exchanged glances.
The disturbance earlier had indeed been enormous; it was only natural that Fallen Angels sharing the Underworld would send someone to investigate.
After a moment of silence, Sazex spoke: "You've seen enough. You may leave."
"How impatient you are, Sazex."
Yet despite Sazex's order to depart, Azazel made no move to leave. Instead, he sat cross-legged in midair and asked curiously: "How did you provoke that man just now?"
As he spoke, the middle-aged man carefully observed the expressions of the demons below.
If his perception was correct, this third Dragon God likely held a great secret tied to the fate of all three races.
Unfortunately for the Viceroy of the Fallen Angels, the demons showed no signs of abnormality—after all, to them, today's events were truly undeserved misfortune.
Sazex, preoccupied with his sister's safety, had no patience to spare, and replied coldly: "No comment."
"Tsk."
Seeing he could extract no more useful information from the demons below, Azazel grew momentarily frustrated.
