Chapter 1158: Blood Spirit Devil Demon King Dong-Zhuo
Chapter 1158: Blood Spirit Devil Demon King Dong-Zhuo
After all the senior hunters reached an agreement, they took a bit more time to recover their energy before walking deeper into the Blood Tomb. Soon, they came across large double doors with strange carvings on them.
"That's the symbol of Demon Race, isn't it?!"
Hah!?
Umm!
"Yes! I have seen symbols like this before. But I can't remember where I have seen it."
"Just like me. I thought I had seen it. But I don't remember!"
The senior hunters analyzed and criticized each other with astonishment.
"It might be the symbol of one of the clans from the Demon Race. But whoever they are, we must exterminate them!" Senior Hunter Yun also knew. But he did not want to waste time thinking about the people from the Demon Race. The only thing he would do was kill and destroy the Demon Race. So, he told everyone to stop thinking and stormed inside.
Umm!
"That's right! Why do we have to think so much? Just break in, and we will find out who or which clan owns this tomb!"
"By the way, how do we open this door? Don't we have to have a key?"
Flap!
Groooaaan!!!
I can open it now!
Hah!!!
But Zheng-Fu did not delay. He silently walked to the front of the large double doors and used both his hands to push the doors open without telling anyone. It was not until the door opened that he let everyone know with a shy smile that he was doing it without asking anyone.
Huh!
"Whatever you do, you should consult with each other first. We do not know what is hidden behind that door. What if there's a trap or an ambush?!" a senior hunter said, slightly dissatisfied with Zheng-Fu's actions. That senior hunter was a person who was always extremely careful. Therefore, every action he took must have been verified and ensured that it would be successful.
"Come on! The door was opened, and nothing happened. Besides, with his energy level, he should be able to handle it!" Senior Hunter Yun knew the personality of that senior hunter very well. Even he himself had been complained many times by the other. But this time it was different. Since Zheng-Fu was more talented than they, it would not be difficult if he wanted to kill them. He, therefore, quickly interrupted to stop the two from arguing.
"I apologize for acting without consultation. However, if anything were to happen, the first person who would be injured would be me, not you, who was in the back. So, if you're going to scold someone, you should come out to the front first!"
But Zheng-Fu did not end things easily. He chose to speak sarcastically to the other party without any consideration. For him, it was good to be cautious and take action when he was confident. But that senior hunter should be called a coward rather than a careful and cautious person.
You!
That senior hunter's face immediately turned red with anger at Zheng-Fu's sarcastic response. He did not think Zheng-Fu would dare to disrespect a senior master like that. But thinking of Zheng-Fu's energy level and abilities, he did not dare to say anything further. Because Zheng-Fu's energy level was one level higher than his. Zheng-Fu also had a powerful flying saber at his side, so he chose to retreat and not retaliate against Zheng-Fu again.
"Come on! Anyway, the door opened. Let's go take a look inside. And don't forget to be ready at all times!" Senior Hunter Yun could not help but feel satisfied when he saw that the senior hunter was being humiliated by Zheng-Fu. Because he did not like that type of person either. However, that senior hunter was not too bad, so Yun-Hou-Tian changed the topic of conversation by calling everyone to prepare to move on.
Umm!!!
The hall where Zheng-Fu and the senior hunters were was the last hall before the main hall of the Blood Tomb, where the coffins stood. Those large double doors were the last barrier that the three protectors sealed with specific spells. But those spells had been destroyed by Zheng-Fu within a very short period without anyone knowing. So, those doors looked like they could be opened as easily as an ordinary house door.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
"Welcome, all comrade humans. I, Dong-Zhuo, Blood Spirit Devil Demon King, am the owner of this Blood Tomb. What is your purpose here?"
Hah!?
As Zheng-Fu and the senior hunter group walked inside and were almost in the middle of the hall where the coffins stood, a voice rang out and reverberated everywhere. It was as if the owner of the voice was everywhere and at every corner of the hall. And next to the coffin, three people were standing in armor. They were Protector Ignis, Protector Aqua, and Protector Terra. They all stood there like robots without speaking or showing any expression.
Dong-Zhuo?!
"Dong Clan? Or is it the evil clan from a thousand years ago that started a war throughout the Eternal Land!"
Hah!
"This clan was completely destroyed and wiped out, wasn't it? Then why..."
Flap!
"It's been a long time since my Dong Clan was prosperous. But because humans like you guys played dirty and used various tricks to secretly harm us, my Dong Clan had met such an end. But that matter is no longer important. Because soon, I'll rise again to greatness by all of your souls!" Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared above the coffin in the middle of the hall and spoke as the senior hunters were talking about the Dong Clan Ancestors. His voice was extremely cold and eerie. "Especially you! A young human who was able to attack my four protectors and put them in such pitiful states. No! It's more accurate to say that you killed one of them and made the other three like this!"
The shadow figure was specifically focused on Zheng-Fu. Because that young human was the only one who had caused his tomb to be messed up and all his plans to fail. Moreover, Zheng-Fu killed one of his loyal protectors. Therefore, he wanted to take Zheng Fu's soul as the final piece needed to resurrect himself.
Hah!
All of the senior hunters immediately turned to look at Zheng-Fu in unison, seeing the Blood Spirit Devil Demon King pointing at Zheng-Fu.
Me?!
"I was only defending myself. Moreover, everyone loves their own life. Or you don't?" Zheng-Fu was also shocked to see that the Blood Spirit Devil Demon King was targeting him. However, he was not at all afraid. Because he had already prepared a way to deal with everything.
Huh!
"You're really good at wordplay, Human! Anyway, I'll let you speak before you die and hand over your soul to me!" Dong-Zhuo was slightly shocked when he saw that Zheng-Fu was not afraid of him at all, even though he had secretly unleashed a powerful pressure on him.
"Great Master, please give us another chance. We promise to kill them all and bring that bastard human's soul to you!" Protector Ignis stepped forward and stopped in front of Dong-Zhuo before saying to make amends for their previous failure.
Thump!
"That's right, sir, Master! We promise not to make that mistake again!" Protector Terra did the same.
"You guys want another chance? All right! I'll give you what you asked for. But this time, you must not make that mistake again. If you can't do it, the only way that awaits you is a painful death!" Even though Dong-Zhuo did not care about anyone, his loyal protectors had been protecting him for a long time, so he gave them another chance. Moreover, at that time, he was only a semi-spirit with no physical body; his energy and abilities were limited. He still did not want to waste his energy at that time.
Thank you, Master! We won't disappoint you at all!!!
The three protectors simultaneously thanked and promised Blood Spirit Devil Demon King Dong-Zhuo with joy.
"Everyone, be careful. Even though all three of them were injured, their energy level is two levels higher than ours; defeating them won't be easy!"
Senior Hunter Yun immediately alerted the other senior hunters and Zheng-Fu to prepare for battle upon hearing those conversations. He knew that the enemies at that time were very strong. However, the three protectors were injured, so their energy and abilities were probably not that much higher than theirs. And if they fought together, they had a chance of winning.
Got it!!!
Even though Senior Hunter Yun did not tell the other senior hunters, they were already preparing to fight. They had experienced a lot and were senior hunters, so they understood the situation well.
But Zheng-Fu was the only one who did not prepare to fight. Because he predicted that the targets of the three protectors would all be senior hunters first. So, he stayed still and waited to see the enemy's reaction. Another reason was that Dong-Zhuo had not moved at all. If he joined the fight with others, he would lose some energy and would be at a disadvantage when fighting Dong-Zhuo. Therefore, he chose to keep watch and save as much energy as possible first.
Hah!?
Senior Hunter Yun noticed Zheng-Fu's calm expression, and he did not understand why Zheng-Fu did not move or prepare to fight. However, he did not have much time to ask because the three loyal Protectors had already moved towards them.
"Terra and Aqua, we'll use the element merging formation to attack these humans. Deal with them until the end. If possible, don't kill them yet. Because our target is that damned young human!" Protector Ignis telepathically told the two comrades the plans and methods of fighting instead of speaking. They would not make mistakes and would no longer be arrogant and stubborn.
Umm!!!
Protector Aqua and Protector Terra nodded in response. Both of them had let go of all their pride. At that time, they thought only of victories and successes. So, either way, they would do their best to get the best results.
Fight!!!
Yaaaaaak!!!
