Chapter 362: Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Tiger
Chapter 362: Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Tiger
A spear as tall as a dragon's spine transformed in the palm of the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign, extending to a length of ten zhang, its menacing appearance becoming even more terrifying.
The sight was all too familiar, clearly the transformation of the Ancient Dragon's Dark Tail.
The demonic beasts were all a bit dazed.
Refining parts of a demon's body into a magic treasure was a common occurrence within the Thousand Demons Cave.
But to have it taken away... and for the original owner to still be alive, it seemed absurdly ridiculous.
What made the demons even more apprehensive was that the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign had taken the Ancient Dragon's tail bone, and the dragon hadn't fought back, instead venting its anger on a group of innocent Demon Kings.
The more they thought about it, the more extreme it seemed.
"What exactly is going on here?"
The Thunderhoof Demon Sovereign glanced down with some trepidation, his tone slightly softer.
He didn't see anything unusual about the lion, but the Dark Tail Demon Sovereign's previous reaction didn't seem fake. The Ancient Dragon truly feared the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign.
"What do you mean, what's going on?"
The robust lion glanced at the spear in his hand, "You mean this spear?"
His golden eyes flashed, and he spoke softly, "The Dark Tail invited me to seek treasures together. Treasures belong to those with virtue. It's clear that this treasure considers my virtue to be higher. That Ancient Dragon is jealous of me, but it's just too narrow-minded."
"..."
Upon hearing this, the demons all fell silent.
It sounded very reasonable.
If it weren't for the fact that the Dark Tail Spear was part of the Ancient Dragon's body, they would have almost been convinced.
"You've gone too far with this." The Thunderhoof Demon Sovereign finally understood the Dark Tail's previous rage.
"It coveted my treasure, and I spared its life, only because of our connection to the Thousand Demons Cave." Shen Yi slowly withdrew his gaze and leisurely walked towards the distance.
"As compensation, it should also give its Immortal Mansion to me."
The demonic beasts watched helplessly as the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign entered the Dark Tail's territory. The anger in their eyes gradually faded as the Thunderhoof Demon Sovereign remained silent.
It seemed there wasn't a problem.
That was the Dark Tail Demon Sovereign's Immortal Mansion, and at this moment, the Dark Tail was in the lion's hands. Who's to say the Dark Tail Demon Sovereign had to be a dragon?
"This has nothing to do with me, I'm leaving."
The Thunderhoof Demon Sovereign turned and looked back, a rare instance of not referring to himself as 'this sovereign'.
"Go."
A calm female voice sounded from the horizon.
Immediately, a golden shadow flashed past the demons' line of sight, also heading towards the Dark Tail's territory.
...
Returning to a familiar place.
Shen Yi stood in front of the now empty deep pool.
His feelings were mixed.
He had been delighted to find an excuse to harvest the lifespans of a batch of demonic beasts—ten Demon Kings and numerous smaller demons, totaling over sixty-four thousand years.
But he hadn't expected to attract the attention of a powerful cultivator.
Just as he appeared, Shen Yi suddenly felt a heart-palpitating aura.
And at this moment, that aura was rapidly approaching.
"..."
Soon, Shen Yi turned around, and a massive figure had appeared before him.
Its body was about twenty zhang long, its muscles bulging, and its fur a golden yellow, shimmering with a greasy luster.
It resembled a fierce tiger in its prime.
However, on its towering shoulder bones, two golden wings extended, wider than its entire body.
The wings were featherless, resembling a bat's.
In an instant, its body transformed, becoming a voluptuous woman. Her body was covered only by soft fur, revealing her key features, and her hair was a mix of gold and black.
Her exquisite face had a touch of wildness, and her vertical pupils exuded an aggressive gaze towards the lion.
After a while, she finally spoke, "You disturbed me."
Shen Yi lowered his gaze at the woman, slightly tilting his head, his voice deep and resonant, "And then? Do you want me to apologize to you?"
In a short time, he had inquired about the identity of the demon before him from the true Lion Sovereign.
The Forty-Fourth Cave, the Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Tiger.
From the slightly trembling response of the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign, Shen Yi roughly understood the terrifying strength of this being.
However, amidst his wariness, he wasn't overly fearful.
After all, he had done so much just to learn more about the Southern Yang Sect.
And to achieve this goal, these top ten cave demons were an absolute necessity.
He had to seize this opportunity to leave an impression on these ancient demons.
"Tsk..."
Upon hearing this, the Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Demon Sovereign paused for a moment, then lowered her head, baring her sharp white teeth with a slight laugh, "Do you think you're quite amusing?"
As she spoke, she swiftly reached out.
Shen Yi's eyebrows furrowed, and the Dark Tail Spear in his palm began to struggle violently. It had clearly undergone a ten-thousand-year refining process, but at this moment, due to intense fear, its instinctual consciousness awakened.
It desperately wanted to flee.
In the end, it shrank to a length of seven or eight feet and fell into the palm of the Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Demon Sovereign.
She lightly tapped the spearhead with her fingers, looking up with a half-smile, as if she were tapping the lion in front of her.
Shen Yi continued to stare at the woman, his expression unchanged, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Do you have some sort of problem?"
The demon of the Forty-Fourth Cave didn't need to display her strength to intimidate the demon of the Sixteenth Cave.
"..."
The Nine-Striped Demon Sovereign's smile froze.
After a brief silence, she casually tossed the Dark Tail Spear back, "It's a good thing, but don't let it happen again."
After saying this, she clapped her hands, "Speak, what do you want?"
The sudden commotion and her ambitious intentions were evident.
Coupled with her current calmness, it was clear that she wasn't suddenly overwhelmed by a breakthrough in her cultivation, becoming arrogant and disrespectful.
Instead, she was a highly rational demon.
She didn't mind promoting a junior, as long as this lion followed her rules.
Just then, she suddenly froze again.
"I want everything," the lion slowly crouched down, its voice hoarse as it spoke earnestly.
The Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Demon Sovereign looked at it calmly, her smile fading, "For example?"
"For example..."
The lion moved its face closer, and in its calm golden eyes, a flame seemed to suddenly surge, making it more aggressive than the woman. It stared at her, "You, and your Immortal Mansion."
The eyelids of the Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Demon Sovereign twitched.
In the lion's eyes, she saw a towering ambition, unconcealed, sincere, and fierce.
It had been many years since someone dared to show such provocation towards her.
"There are many good things in the Thousand Demons Cave, and any opportunity could make you soar to the heavens. Your luck isn't bad."
"But the prerequisite is that you survive."
She hovered in the air, avoiding the lion's scorching gaze, and her golden wings slowly flapped as she looked down, "Learn to fear, or I'll have to teach you myself."
After saying this, a hint of ridicule appeared on her wild face, "Unless your words mean that you want me to favor you. If that's the case, you barely meet the requirements."
"Tsk."
Shen Yi let out a mocking laugh, stood up, and once again dragged the Dark Tail Spear, not looking back as he walked towards the distant Immortal Mansion.
"..."
The Golden-Winged Nine-Striped Demon Sovereign's lips twitched twice... Tsk?
