  "Your father and you are the greatest traitors of the Blood Demon Sector! Over the past three months, too many silver-blood demons have been tortured into half-human-half-demon appearances by your drugs! Now, you are trying to transform me into your hideous look? Hehe. In your dreams!"

  His saliva darted into Jin Xinyue's face like nails.

  However, Jin Xinyue ignored it and replied, "Since the destruction of the Eye of Blood Demon, the situation in the Blood Demon Sector has been turbulent. There are many rumors in the outside world, but they were all intentionally made up by Elder Nether Spring and his subordinates. Many nobles have second thoughts about my father's policy because of the rumors. I believe that Chief Dao must've been misled by the rumors.

  "However, you've seen the damage caused by Elder Nether Spring in person. The territory of the 'Phantom Saber Mantis' was scourged by the Demon God Virus, too. Are the facts not enough to wake you up, Chief Dao?"

  "Do you think I am a three-year-old?" Chief Dao sneered. "Elder Nether Spring is truly insane, I'll give you that, but everybody knows what is on the mind of you and your father, too!

  "You of all people know what happened in the Pantheon of Demons in the past three months!

  "At first, under the pretext of 'search for the accomplices of Elder Nether Spring', you captured a lot of silver-blood demons and killed everybody who resisted.

  "But how many of them were real accomplices? How many of them were loyal warriors of the Blood Demon Sector who did not concur with the peace deal with the Heaven's Origin Sector? And how many of them were killed by your father, you, and the so-called 'Vulture Li Yao' as stepping stones because they were unwilling to relinquish their power?

  "Hehe. After the plague broke out and the coalition army of demons marched into the epidemic area, so many experts died without a good cause!

  "Chief Yuan of the Green-Eyed Ancient Wolves, Chief Shen Tu of the Six-Armed Fiendish Apes, Chief Wang of the Red-Haired Bloody Lions. How did they die exactly?"

  Jin Xinyue sighed as if she felt very sorry about them. "They were all ambushed by the Nether World Watch and murdered by Elder Nether Spring."

  "Is that so?" Chief Dao spat on the ground brutally. "Of so many nobles, those who support your father and you are jumping up and down every day, but those who object to you, who believe that human beings and demons cannot live under the same roof, and who firmly reject the peace negotiations with the Heaven's Origin Sector have all happened to be 'assassinated' by the Nether World Watch? Elder Nether Spring must be a dog in your house since he is working so dutifully for you!"

  "There's nothing I can do if you don't believe it," Jin Xinyue said casually. "We've got both evidence and eyewitnesses. They were truly assassinated by the Nether World Watch. We captured the murderers, and they all confessed later."

  "Of course I don't believe it!" Chief Dao burst into laughter. "You've captured so many soldiers of the Nether World Watch recently. With your interrogation, of course you can make them say whatever you want them to say!

  "I am told that your father has also been stating in the Pantheon of Demons lately that a Dark Lady of Nine Heavens should be elected to pacify the people now that the Blood Demon Sector is so chaotic. He also mentioned that the Dark Lady of Nine Heavens will break the traditions and have the right the mobilize the coalition army of demons. It is needless to say that the Dark Lady of Nine Heavens will certainly be you, right?

  "On the surface, you are injecting the Divine God of Chaos to eliminate the virus, but in fact, you want me to look like a human being like you so that I will take your side, don't you?

  "You can give up your fantasies now!

  "The Phantom Saber Mantis will always be the purest demons. We will never negotiate peace with human beings of the Heaven's Origin Sector. Never!

  "Kill me if you want, in the same way you killed the chiefs of the Green-Eyed Ancient Wolves, the Six-Armed Fiendish Apes, the Red-Haired Bloody Lions, and so many other tribes!

  "After I die, the entire Phantom Saber Mantis, and all the other branches of the Saber Mantis, will rise up against you until none of us are left!

  "Hahahaha. Come on. Kill me if you want all the members of the Phantom Saber Mantis to rebel!"

  Jin Xinyue listened in silence and did not defend herself. She simply shook her head and sighed in a low voice, as if she felt sorry that the chief of the Phantom Saber Mantis could not understand her sincerest, purest kindness.

  After hearing his speech, she even untied the chief so that he could sit up straight on the operation bed.

  "You dare not to kill me? Hehe—"

  Half way through Chief Dao's laughter, Jin Xinyue suddenly turned into a streak of white brightness and darted toward Chief Dao's abdomen.

  Her force was so tremendous that even his solid shell was blown to smithereens. The chief was kicked into the air even though he was more than two meters tall!

  Jin Xinyue closed follow him. The streak of brightness swept to the top of Chief Dao and kicked him brutally yet another time, blowing him to a corner of the room!

  BOOM!

  Jin Xinyue surpassed the speed of sound. What was hidden below the long robe of the saintess turned out to be a black, shining suit whose elbows and knees had been strengthened by the neatest scales. On the scales were protruding thorns that were emitting a bluish, mysterious glow, indicating that they had been smeared with lethal venom and corrosive liquids!

  The suit was barely noticeable since it was covered by the broad, huge robe. But right now, Jin Xinyue was like a hungry tiger and a dragon that had just gotten out of the ocean. With an ear-splitting sound, she kicked Chief Dao right in his temple, blowing Chief Dao's head deep into the cabin wall with a thunderous explosion. Almost twenty cracks were added to his skull.

  Chief Dao felt that more than a hundred claps of thunder had exploded inside his head at the same time. The world was swirling before his eyes, and he almost passed out.

  Jin Xinyue's long legs pierced out of the long robe and snatched Chief Dao's neck like a beautiful and yet brutal black boa, throwing him to the other side of the cabin. Then, she lunged forward and stomped on Chief Dao's face, exerting her strength!

  Chief Dao's skull, which was already riddled with gaps, began emitting cracking noises, as if his brain was about to be squeezed out!

  But Jin Xinyue did not bother to look at him. She gestured at the surveillance camera in the corner.

  The wall that Chief Dao's face was stuck to closely gradually turned into a transparent glass.

  Pa!

  A monster, which had lumps all over its body and countless tentacles above its neck, suddenly rushed close, leaving a large stain on the strengthened glass.

  It was an uncontrollable mutant that was only one wall away from them.

  Not just any wall, but a transparent one.

  Seeing that Chief Dao was right before it, the uncontrollable mutant was crashing against the strengthened glass crazily. But Chief Dao's head had been stepped on by Jin Xinyue's feet and was unable to move at all. Even his eyeballs were about to burst out because of the pressure.

  Chief Dao could clearly see the tremor of every lump, the shaking of every tentacle, and the fatal venom being secreted from every tusk on the uncontrollable mutant!

  There was no telling whether it was because of his disgust or the serious brain concussion, but Chief Dao felt a strong sense of nausea.

  "Let me tell you something, Chief Dao."

  Jin Xinyue adjusted the force of her feet patiently, ensuring that the gaps on Chief Dao's skull were expanding with the most horrifying cracking noises.

  Wearing the purest, gentlest, and most sacred smile, she said, "First of all, you are a well-respected senior in the demon race, and you enjoy quite a high prestige in the Insect Clan. As a saintess of the Pantheon of Demons, naturally, I cannot kill you.

  "However, do you see the uncontrollable mutant here? In another day, you will be exactly like that. By then, nobody will need
to do anything. As long as you are locked up, you will be swallowed by your own cells and die a miserable death if you are hungered for a few days.

  "To avoid the potential rumors, we will shoot the entire process and play the footage to everybody in the Phantom Saber Mantis in the future as proof that you died of the Demon God Virus.

  "Secondly, Yin Tianzun, Elder Blood Robe's junior brother and the acting chief of the Claw Clan, was ambushed by the Nether World Watch yesterday. Because of the heavy wounds, he unfortunately passed away around midnight.

  "Thirdly, upon hearing the news, Master Hollow Wind, the acting chief of the Insect Clan, immediately stated in public that Elder Nether Spring was too insane and that he had to answer for blood with blood. Also, he reiterated that the Insect Clan would be united under Jin Tuyi, the commander-in-chief of the coalition army of demons, and do everything they could to strike the Nether World Watch!

  "Fourthly, because of your infection, your family has been tested, too. As of now, the test results are not out yet. But your youngest son has stated to us that he was willing to inject a large dose of vaccines even if it meant the loss of part of the features of the demon race in case anything went wrong.

  "Hehe. Your youngest son is truly smart. He will certainly grow into an excellent leader given enough time.

  "Chief Dao, you must remember that we haven't brought too many serums and vaccines with us. The carriers of the disease outside are much more than we expected. Every dose of antidote is extremely precious.

  "It was exactly because of your seniority and your prestige in the Nether Spring Kingdom that we decided to give such a valuable opportunity to you in advance. But if you are suspicious that we have other plans, we won't force you to do anything. Why don't you take a rest here in the company of such a lovely friend and think everything through?

  "After you've thought everything through, contact the outside through this stripe. Doctors will come to treat your wounds soon.

  "However, I must remind you that many viruses break out so quickly that they will not even give you the time to regret."

  With a sweet smile, Jin Xinyue removed her feet, which had been deeply buried into Chief Dao's face. She bowed toward him, turned around, and left the chamber.

  "Wait—"

  When she left without looking back and was about to shut the door, the guy finally called her with complicated emotions.

  Chapter 1054: Attacking Elder Nether Spring's Nest! |

  After 'persuading' the chief of the Phantom Saber Mantis, who was very influential in the Nether Spring Kingdom, Jin Xinyue appeared in the medical camp as the 'saintess', raising a round of cheers and exclamations. She was occupied until the dusk next day before she had the time to meet Li Yao.

  "The Nether Spring Kingdom has suffered a lot."

  Li Yao had just finished the cleaning work of Gloomy Bone City. All the uncontrollable mutants and the soldiers of the Nether World Watch who were lurking in the darkness had been found. They had either been suppressed or executed.

  However, the city that had been completely ruined made him frown and curse in anger.

  Of the opponents that he had met before, such as Yan Xibei, Xiao Xuance, Bai Xinghe, or even Jin Tuyi, many were great villains and masterminds. However, they were mostly very straightforward, and their failure marked the end of their endeavor.

  But Elder Nether Spring was different from any of them.

  The destruction of the Eye of Blood Demon meant the complete failure of the Spore Stratagem.

  In front of the fully-armed regular army, even the strongest virus could do nothing but get a few more victims killed.

  There was no reason Elder Nether Spring would not understand the logic, but still, he raised the tides of plague with the Nether Spring Kingdom as the center!

  This time, his target was no longer the elite troops but civilians. Therefore, he did not need to choose spores carefully. All he needed was to ask a few trusted subordinates to sneak into a town with portable cans that stored the virus and release the virus in the most populated area. With such a simple method, it was very likely that large-scale chaos would be caused.

  Naturally, under the suppression of the army, such chaos died down as quickly as it started. It was impossible for them to reverse the situation.

  However, for the civilians, the outbreak of plague often meant their doom.

  Within the Nether Spring Kingdom, Elder Nether Spring's homeland, dozens of towns were consumed by the plague overnight.

  The epidemic spread like a forest fire. Half of the Nether Spring Kingdom was the land of the dead now!

  Li Yao was as worried as he was furious. Elder Nether Spring's madness had crossed the line. Nobody knew what else he would do if he were given more time.

  Right then, they received a piece of intelligence from the frontline.

  "Elder Nether Spring's nest has been discovered!"

  …

  One day later, thousands of kilometers into the Nether Spring Kingdom, more than ten shark-like light devilish warships were sliding silently in the middle of the dark clouds.

  The devilish warships accommodated the top-tier experts in the coalition army of demons, including nine demon emperors, who constituted an assault team that was as rapid as lightning.

  They were carrying out the most crucial mission—to attack Elder Nether Spring's nest and, if possible, capture Elder Nether Spring alive!

  Inside a devilish warship whose head was carved with the emblem of Skyfire, Li Yao, Han Tuhu, Suo Chaolong, and other elites of Skyfire gathered together and discussed the operation plan.

  "Our destination is Bottomless City deep inside the Nether Spring Kingdom. Between Bottomless City and the area under our control is the epidemic area with a span of more than a thousand kilometers. If we want to attack the city on the surface, we will have to pass through dozens of highly infected cities and towns, which will be quite slow.

  "Therefore, it has been decided that the best assault team made of nine demon emperors and hundreds of warriors will perform a decapitation strike!

  "However, it is the Insect Clan's habit to live below the ground. Bottomless City is such a city, constructed almost a hundred meters underground. Formed of dozens of natural caves, the terrain there is highly complicated.

  "Elder Nether Spring's secret nest, on the other hand, is in the deepest cave of Bottomless City, more than two hundred meters from the ground.

  "The goal of our mission is to capture Elder Nether Spring. At the very least, we must control the main biochemical brains inside Elder Nether Spring's secret nest in order to retrieve more files about Elder Nether Spring, including his other trump cards and secret bases.

  "Therefore, speed matters most. We must have everything under control before the Nether World Watch destroy the main biochemical brains.

  "Later, the nine demon emperors will attack Bottomless City from the front and attract the Nether World Watch's attention, and we will march into Elder Nether Spring's nest directly through earth penetrators from the back of the city!"

  Very soon, the altitude of the devilish warships began decreasing.

  The debris of quite a few cities appeared in the valley before them. According to the map, they were all big cities with a population of more than a hundred thousand. In the places that should have been illuminated by lights and as bright as daylight, there was nothing but darkness. The only specks of light that could be seen were the sparks that were shivering in the billowing wind.

  At the end of the valley, another magnificent city was standing. The mountain, which was dozens of kilometers in diameter, was riddled with holes like a giant nest of ants. Glimmers were emitted from the holes, indicating that there was more to the city inside.

  It was Bottomless City, where Elder Nether Spring's secret nest was located!

  Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum!

  Above Bottomless City, countless Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes, Colorful Locusts, and Bloodthirsty Ants were hovering. Hu
ndreds of soldiers of the Nether World Watch wearing finely-made armor and riding biochemical beasts were on alert, too.

  The Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes, the Colorful Locusts, and the Bloodthirsty Ants were all five times larger than the usual ones and much deeper in color. They looked like a tide of colorful tides. The Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes formed huge giants and grinned hideously in the clouds.

  The soldiers of the Nether World Watch were brimming with immense demonic energy, too. They looked much more handsome and strong, completely different from the regular soldiers.

  The uncontrollable mutants were just the flawed products created by the Demon God Virus. The real purpose of the Demon God Virus was to accelerate the evolution of creatures and make them grow into the most perfect form!

  The insects and the soldiers were all the lucky survivors who had passed through the uncontrollable state of the Demon God Virus. They were, according to Elder Nether Spring, the 'perfect third life form'!

  They were all more than ten times stronger than before!

  Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!

  On the ground, rays of light and acid cannons were shooting at the sky rapidly like a storm. The strengthened external skeletons of the devilish warships let out cracking noises.

  The 'decapitation team' had been discovered!

  In the clouds, the giant made of the Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes rushed close and extended an enormous hand toward the devilish warships. The soldiers of the Nether World Watch also regrouped into the tightest battle formation, not allowing the decapitation team to step forward at all!

  Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

  Nine streaks of brightness rushed out of the devilish warships and instantly ripped the giant of Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes apart. Hundreds of experts in the level of demon king followed them closely, fighting a head-on battle with the soldiers of the Nether World Watch who had been strengthen by the virus.

  Immediately, lightning broke out, thunder echoed, and blood flooded out in the clouds!
