Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

“It’s my turn!”

After Titan Giant Ape punched Su Sheng several times, Chaos Demonic Bull wanted to have another go.

The interrogation became a competition to be the first to squeeze the truth out of Su Sheng.

Su Sheng might die if this continued, so Sky-Swallowing Python stopped them. “Enough. If you keep hitting him, he’ll die. If we beat him to death, that man won’t let us off! I’ve already sent him a voice transmission. When he arrives, he can decide what to do with this scoundrel.”

Hearing this, Chaos Demonic Bull and Titan Giant Ape felt startled and finally stopped reluctantly.

Instead, they started feeling worried about Su Sheng’s condition, afraid he might just die. In that case, they would be dead meat.

Chaos Demonic Bull grabbed Su Sheng by the collar, stared down with his big eyes, and said threateningly, “Let me tell you. You are not allowed to die. Otherwise, I'll rip your balls out! Do you hear me?!”

Chaos Demonic Bull slapped Su Sheng’s face a couple more times with his large hand. Su Sheng had passed out, but this woke him up.

Su Sheng was swollen beyond recognition as he nodded with tears in his eyes. In his mind, he speculated about the identity of that man these three Monster Kings spoke of.

These Monster Kings were at the same level as him, the peak of the Divine Being realm. Since they were no weaker than him, they were as good as some of the best cultivators in the land.

He had long heard about the presence of exceptionally powerful Monster Kings living in the Monster Domain Forest.

But he did not expect them to take orders from someone else so obediently!

What kind of person can command these Monster Kings? Why did this person want to capture me?

The moment Su Sheng thought about the black-robed elder who had slaughtered Old Ghost and Lu Jian in a second, he trembled in fear.

If it was this mysterious man, then everything made sense.

Only this man could make the Monster Kings bow down and obey.

At this moment, Ning Yechen slowly walked into the cave with his hands behind his back.

He no longer concealed his identity. Instead, he swaggered in with his original appearance.

Seeing Ning Yechen appear, Chaos Demonic Bull and the others hurriedly knelt and bowed to him. “Greetings, Sir!”

Su Sheng looked straight at Ning Yechen. He was both fearful and curious.

The man before him looked nothing over 30 years old and had handsome features, and he could not sense the slightest cultivation from him!

However, he exuded a cold, composed, and contemptuous aura, as though everyone else was beneath him.

If not for the fact that Su Sheng was tied to the pillar, he would have knelt out of instinct!

Ning Yechen looked at the half-dead Su Sheng and frowed. He asked Chaos Demonic Bull and the others, “Why does he look half-dead? Did you beat him?”

“N-no! Sir, when we caught him, he resisted, so we accidentally used too much strength. I swear we didn’t beat him!” Chaos Demonic Bull assured Ning Yechen with a trembling voice but a straight face.

Sky-Swallowing Python and Titan Giant Ape felt shocked by Chaos Demonic Bull’s actions.

The guy really made excuses with a straight face.

Looking at the barely alive Su Sheng, Ning Yechen did not pursue the matter. He strode up to Su Sheng, stared at him coldly, and removed the stick in his mouth. “Tell me. Who are you? Who sent you?”

“Elder, my name is Su Sheng. I am the leader of Tianxia Scholastic Palace. I entered this place unintentionally and didn’t mean to offend you. I hope you can forgive me. I will return and make amends with gifts.”

“I asked you, who sent you? Don’t you understand?” Ning Yechen’s eyes turned cold. He grabbed one of Su Sheng’s arms and squeezed gently, instantly breaking it!

“AHHH!” Su Sheng let out a miserable wail of excruciating pain as blood spurted from his wound!

Kneeling nearby, Chaos Demonic Bull and the other two trembled and lowered their heads obediently.

Compared to Ning Yechen, they were gentle to Su Sheng.

“I’m asking you again. Who sent you?” Ning Yechen asked coldly.

Su Sheng endured the severe pain and shouted with a deathly pale face, “It was someone from the Heavenly Realm! He hid his identity. I’ve never seen his face! All I know is that he wants us to catch Luo Ruying and Luo Hongye and bring them to him. Then he will help us become immortals and ascend to the Heavenly Realm! That's all I know! Please spare me!”

He realized that the man before him was no ordinary being. This time, he did not dare to hesitate the slightest.

“How do you contact him?” Ning Yechen asked coldly.

“We couldn’t contact that person. It was always one-way communication,” Su Sheng replied weakly.

Ning Yechen frowned in annoyance.

He was hoping to catch the culprit directly.

Sure enough, it was not that easy.

“Tell me about your backgrounds.” Ning Yechen asked about the identities of Su Sheng and the three dead men.

Only now did Su Sheng find out that Wu Kuang had already died at the hands of Ning Yechen. He did not dare to hide the truth and spilled everything.

They were Su Sheng, the leader of Tianxia Scholastic Palace; Lu Jian, the leader of the Sharp Sword Sect; Wu Kuang, the leader of the Almighty Combat Hall; and Old Ghost, the leader of the Ghost Puppet Grotto.

The four men were from the most powerful forces in the Mortal Realm. Together, they were known as the Four Major Sects.

Three days ago, a mysterious person had visited the four of them.

The other party wanted them to work together to catch Luo Ruying and Luo Hongye and bring them to him. If they could do it, he would help them become immortals and ascend to the Heavenly Realm!

Afterward, he could even help them join one of the top sects in the Heavenly Realm!

Facing this temptation and hearing that the target was a woman at the Human Immortal realm from the Heavenly Realm, they accepted the request.

They used Old Ghost’s tracking abilities to track them down to the Monster Domain Forest, and subsequently…

“Elder, I’ve told you everything I know. Please forgive me. Tianxia Scholastic Palace will do anything you want!” Su Sheng pleaded fearfully.

Ning Yechen smiled gently. The shadow at his feet lengthened to Su Sheng, and legions of dark golden bugs crawled out from the shadow and climbed onto him!

“W-what is this?! AHH! S-stop! Elder, please stop! AHHH!”

Su Sheng could sense countless bugs crawling into his body and biting him, gradually eating his entire body bit by bit!

The excruciating pain and fear in his heart left him begging for mercy.

Before long, the bugs completely covered Su Sheng. The crying disappeared, and his body stopped struggling.

After the bugs climbed off the pillar, nothing was left on it!

These people had touched his wife and daughter. From the beginning, Ning Yechen had no intention of letting off anyone, down to their sects!
