Chapter 242 The story of the king being killed in Hangzhou and the emperor being slain in the Demon
As soon as Zu Qingyun stepped out of the Gate of Chaos, he received interrogation-like stares from Jiang Shaoxu, Ai Tutu, and Lingling.
The little girl Lingling walked right up to him, a hint of hostility in her eyes.
"Tell me, how many things are you still hiding from us?"
At the same time, Jiang Shaoxu and Ai Tutu also gathered in front.
Zu Qingyun looked at the three women in front of him with a helpless expression on his face.
"Can I offer a defense?"
Zu Qingyun eventually told them the truth. However, just as he had expected, when they learned that the demon who had summoned the Black Dragon Emperor and brought the Ancient King and the Kunlun Demon Lord was himself, they were all momentarily stunned.
Inside the dark barrier, Zu Qingyun patted Lingling's head.
"Alright, don't tell anyone about this. Right now, Shao Zheng, the chairman of the Asian Magicians Association, is on my side, and Hua Zhanhong, the commander of the Southern Military Region, has already expressed his support for me."
"In addition to my own strength and the three partners I have found, I can say that I am not afraid of anyone."
Jiang Shaoxu fell silent upon hearing Zu Qingyun's words.
“That’s right, you are not afraid of human society, but you are afraid that they will use us as a blackmail after they know your identity, so you have been hiding your power.”
Although Jiang Shaoxu was a military magistrate, he was extremely meticulous.
She knew very well that a mid-level emperor was an invincible being for humans, not to mention that Zu Qingyun had three other emperor-level demons by his side.
Therefore, the reason why the other party is unwilling to reveal his identity is simply because he is afraid that they and even his own family will be implicated.
Upon hearing Jiang Shaoxu's words, Ai Tutu's eyes widened in disbelief, and the quick-witted Lingling naturally guessed this as well.
"Yes, I can certainly bear the loneliness of being separated from human society, but I cannot deprive you of your right to enjoy life."
"My identity and the power I have built up are a huge threat to human society."
The Chinese military leader is willing to believe me, Speaker Shao Zheng is willing to believe me, and my grandfather is willing to believe me. But apart from them, there must be people in the country who want to get rid of me, just like they did to those totem beasts that protected humanity and almost perished together with the Siren Kingdom.
Upon hearing Zu Qingyun's words, Jiang Shaoxu and the other two fell silent. They all knew that Zu Qingyun was right. If he were to reveal his strength to the public, he would definitely be feared by the Holy Tribunal or even the Holy City.
They would absolutely not allow someone like Zu Qingyun, who could threaten them, to remain on the continent.
"You don't need to worry too much. I will upgrade all my magic systems to the forbidden spell level before my strength is revealed to the public. At that time, after I become demonized, my strength will be close to the peak of the Roof of the World."
"By then, no one will be there to support our lives."
Zu Qingyun, who had intended to relax in Shanghai with Lingling and the others, received a call from Tang Yue.
"Qingyun, more than a dozen shark-man monarchs of monarch level have appeared in Hangzhou City, along with a shark-man king whose strength is no weaker than the Sea King Skeleton of Shanghai. Even Xuan She is no match for them."
Hearing what Tang Yue said, Jiang Shaoxu rolled her eyes at Zu Qingyun.
She had her left arm around Ai Tutu and her right hand on Lingling's shoulder. "Alright, our busy hero, go save your other little darling."
Zu Qingyun: (⊙﹏⊙)
Hangzhou, West Lake.
The Lingyin Temple Tribunal has now summoned all high-ranking military mages. They all know very well that West Lake must not be lost, otherwise it may become the first land camp on the continent where the sea monsters stop!
On the battlefield at this moment, Yu Shishi, the Moth Maiden, was battling ten Shark Kings while riding a mature Little Moon Moth Phoenix with moth wings on her feet. Meanwhile, the Totem Black Serpent was fighting against the Shark King. The scene was earth-shattering and terrifying.
Tang Yue, as the presiding judge, was currently organizing a team of high-level mages below to deal with the commander-level sea monsters that had rushed into West Lake, while Tang Zhong was also in charge of the super-level mage team, restraining those monarch-level creatures.
It can be said that in this battlefield of the sirens, there are casualties every moment, and the rear reserve hospitals are overcrowded, with patients being sent to the battlefield almost immediately after treatment.
Time is of the essence, and the siren's attack is not over yet. If Hangzhou's West Lake falls, the siren may use it as a base to expand wildly inland.
However, this was true not only here, but everywhere else as well; they absolutely could not allow the Siren race to tear a gap in their battle lines leading inland.
In fact, there are also top-level cultivators in Hangzhou, also known as semi-forbidden spellcasters, but they generally do not take action, since they need to be wary of whether enemies will appear behind these sea monsters.
Inside the Lingyin Temple trial, Tang Zhong was monitoring the real-time battle situation. Soon, among the rows of black messages, he spotted a very conspicuous gold-red message.
"On the battlefield of Shanghai, a Sea King Emperor and a Sea King Skeleton of Supreme Monarch level were slain."
Upon seeing this, Tang Zhong felt as if he had been electrocuted, and then he suddenly came to his senses.
"Fuck! What's going on!"
He quickly started scrolling down to see what was going on, but to his disappointment, there were only two lines of large, eye-catching text at the bottom.
[Absolutely true! Absolutely true! Absolutely true!]
The Siren Plague in Shanghai has been temporarily brought under control; the Siren race has lost one emperor and one supreme monarch!
Looking back to see who posted it, Tang Zhong was startled by what he saw.
It was actually a message released by the Palace Museum Magicians Association!
But how is that possible?! How could an emperor-level demon die in Shanghai? And that Sea King Skeleton is no weaker than the Shark King of Hangzhou.
Although puzzled, Tang Zhong still chose to believe the official statement, since given the official's track record, it was impossible for them to release such a baseless claim.
However, at that moment, terrifying golden lightning bolts instantly enveloped the battlefield where the Totem Serpent and the Shark King were located.
Upon seeing this scene, Tang Zhong's pupils dilated suddenly, because he saw a familiar figure.
"Holy crap! Wasn't Qingyun supposed to be abroad? How did he end up in Hangzhou?!"
At the same time, on the battlefield.
"Brother Xuanshe, it's been a long time." (End of Chapter)
