Chapter 108: The Demon King
Chapter 108
Of course, the two of them weren't particularly panicked.
After all, they wouldn't suffer any harm.
And the monster in front of them, after speaking, didn't immediately attack, but instead looked at them carefully again, then exclaimed: "Boss Gu? Isn't this Boss Gu? No, how can there be two Boss Gus?"
Hearing this, Gu Wanyin also looked up.
It turned out that the one in front of them was actually the ambitious bear demon who had previously visited the Peace Hotel.
Gu Wanyin still remembered that when he first came, he carried two large boxes of celestial flowers and gold and silver jewelry, and then didn't buy human food or go play, but went straight to the pill shop.
Later, he exchanged points several more times, all buying pills, and was the most ambitious demon Gu Wanyin had seen in the hotel.
Gu Wanyin remembered, he seemed to be called Xiong Tao.
"Oh, it's you!" Gu Wanyin said with a smile, "What are you doing here? Are you one of the Demon King's subordinates?"
"Ahem, I'm just a small soldier, I can't even talk to the Demon King. Nine-Tails and the others are the Demon King's close guards, but now they've all been... Boss Gu, are you here to rescue them?"
"Mm-hmm." Gu Wanyin nodded, "Let's not talk about that now, a large number of rebels have already arrived, you'd better quickly tell the Demon King to relocate."
"What? Re-rebels?" Xiong Tao's face changed.
He had been sent out to patrol, responsible for guarding this mountain, and if any rebels arrived, he was to report back immediately.
But he hadn't slept for several days, and just now he couldn't resist and fell asleep...
It wasn't until Gu Wanyin and Gu Han broke in that he woke up startled.
"Thank goodness for you, Boss Gu!"
Xiong Tao said as he turned to run towards the Demon King: "Otherwise, this would have been a big problem! Without Nine-Tails and the others, and the Demon King severely injured, that barrier we set up actually can't resist much at all!"
It was indeed as Gu Wanyin and the others had thought.
And judging by Xiong Tao's tone, that barrier was even weaker than they had imagined.
No wonder it was directly broken open with a big hammer...
If they hadn't discovered the enemy army in time, the Demon King would probably have been finished.
Soon, Xiong Tao led them to the entrance of a cave.
He didn't bother to say anything more to them, and ran directly into the cave.
After a while, several demons came out with him.
Gu Wanyin saw that among them were Snake Demon, Flower Demon, and others.
She recognized two of them as demon guests who had been to the hotel before.
"I did just sense a large amount of demonic energy," the Snake Demon said with a frown. "Since Boss Gu says it's not our reinforcements, we must relocate."
"But the Demon King is severely injured now, and Nine-Tails and the others aren't here..." the Flower Demon said worriedly.
"If we stay here, we'll only die."
As soon as the words were spoken, another demon walked out.
He was very tall and carried on his back a young girl wearing a golden long dress. The girl had two small horns on her head, like dragon horns, but smaller, looking very cute.
The girl also had quite a bit of blood on her, looking seriously injured.
"Cong Ying, has the Demon King still not woken up?" the Flower Demon asked with concern.
The demon called Cong Ying shook his head.
Gu Han whispered in Gu Wanyin's ear: "So this is the Demon King! Completely different from what I imagined!"
Gu Wanyin nodded.
Indeed, the Demon King she had imagined was the kind with a huge body and boundless magical powers.
"Since the rebels are almost here, let's go," said Cong Ying.
He handed the Demon King to the Flower Demon to support, while he himself lay down on the ground.
Gu Wanyin wondered what he was doing.
Before she could figure it out, she saw the surrounding demons starting to back away.
Although she didn't know what was happening, she also pulled Gu Han and started to back up.
Then, she saw Cong Ying slowly return to his original form, an eagle.
Most importantly, this eagle was super big!
Gu Wanyin immediately understood what was going to happen.
Sure enough, several demons helped the Demon King onto the eagle's back, then climbed up themselves.
Then about twenty or so demons ran out from the cave and climbed onto the eagle's back.
"Boss Gu, oh no, two Boss Gus, come up quickly!" Xiong Tao shouted to the two of them, "We're leaving! Among us, Cong Ying flies the fastest!"
Gu Wanyin also pulled Gu Han up.
After an eagle's cry, Cong Ying flapped his wings and took off.
"Wow!" Gu Han couldn't help but exclaim, "So exciting! Wanyin, this trip was really worth it!"
Gu Wanyin, on the other hand, was lying on Cong Ying's back looking down.
She saw that the rebels had already reached the foot of the mountain.
But as Cong Ying flew higher and higher, the ground became less and less clear.
Those rebels looked more like ants, densely packed, making her trypophobia almost act up.
"You must be Boss Gu from the Peace Hotel, right? We owe you our thanks this time," the Flower Demon said gratefully. "If we had only discovered after the rebels broke through the barrier, it would have been too late."
At this moment, Xiong Tao was being scolded by the Snake Demon.
The big fellow lowered his head, looking dejected, unexpectedly giving off a kind of gap moe.
"It's nothing, I came this time mainly to rescue Nine-Tails and the others from the rebels," said Gu Wanyin. "Moon Eagle said I could come to discuss with the Demon King, but seeing the Demon King's current state..."
Who knows when she'll wake up.
"Moon Eagle? You've seen Moon Eagle?" the Flower Demon said excitedly. "No wonder we couldn't find him, we thought he had been captured by the rebels like Nine-Tails and the others! So he went to find you! That's great, Cong Ying has been very worried!"
Gu Wanyin asked curiously: "What's the relationship between Cong Ying and Moon Eagle?"
"Cong Ying is Moon Eagle's father."
"I see," Gu Wanyin nodded.
No wonder, she had felt that Cong Ying's appearance was somewhat familiar.
What they didn't know was that below, the rebels had already discovered Cong Ying flying in the sky.
"They're trying to escape!" one of the rebel sub-leaders roared angrily. "Quick, launch an attack! Bring down that Cong Ying fellow!"
In an instant, the rebels were all about to unleash various magical powers and techniques towards Cong Ying in the sky.
However, at this moment, they discovered to their horror that no matter what magical power or technique, they couldn't unleash anything at all!
"What, what's going on? Where's my magical power? Where are my techniques?"
"My cultivation is still here, why can't I use any techniques!"
"Sir, save us!"
"Bunch of useless trash!" The sub-leader was shaking with anger. He wanted to take action himself, but found that like his subordinates, he couldn't launch any techniques at Cong Ying in the sky!
"What, what's going on? That Cong Ying fellow, what did he do!"
