Chapter 510 Lucian's Death
Chapter 510 Lucian's Death
?
Before Situ Luan could carry out Lu Wan'er's order, the stone gate was already opened, and two women walked out from it, leaving them dumbfounded.
"Hey, aren't they members of your sect, Ying'er?" Su Yuan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes." Nangong Ying'er walked up to Lu Wan'er, hugged her, and briefly kissed her. "Why are you stupefied like this?"
"Is this really you, Big Sis?" Lu Wan'er asked as she rubbed Nangong Ying'er's cheeks. "Ouch!"
Nangong Ying'er shook her head after she flicked Lu Wan'er's forehead hard. "It is indeed me, but I cannot return with you to the sect, for I have much more important business now."
"Hmm? What do you want to do?" Lu Wan'er asked with a frown. "Most importantly, how did you manage to escape from them? Moreover, they have already judged your people, and they might have perished by now."
After all, Nangong Ying'er was Ling Yun's slave, so she couldn't tell Lu Wan'er the truth and answered with lies. "When Feng Ruxue and the others arrived at this place, I had already opened this Stone Gate, but my clan's people didn't have time to follow me, so they were caught by them. As for the fate of my clan's people, I will find out about them later."
After she closed the Stone Gate, Su Yuan said to her. "Hey, Ying'er! We must leave now, or our Master will punish us."
"Master?" Lu Wan'er raised her eyebrows at that. "Who is your Master, Big Sis? Why are you afraid of that person?"
"My Master is a person of my race, so you wouldn't know him. Moreover, he is powerful, and I can't go against his orders." Nangong Ying'er then took many potions from her storage ring and handed them to Lu Wan'er. "You can use them for our disciples for now, and I will send them to you again later."
After Lu Wan'er stored everything in her storage ring, she said again. "In that case, I'll go with you, and-"
"No." Nangong Ying'er directly interrupted him. "My master will be furious if you two come with me, and he will definitely kill you both, so I want you to return to the sect now."
"But-"
"No Buts!" Nangong Ying'er's expression became serious and deterred Lu Wan'er with her aura. "You don't need to argue with me anymore."
In the end, Lu Wan'er couldn't help but sigh in resignation, and she and Situ Luan broke their returning jades right away.
Su Yuan said to her. "Apparently, Ling Yun wants to use your sect members for his benefit, or else he would not have asked you to supply them with those potions."
"You're right." Nangong Ying'er had also known about it from the start. "Ling Yun was so kind, gentle, and caring back then. But now, he's become ruthless and doesn't hesitate to use everyone for his gain."
"Aren't all cultivators like that?" Su Yuan asked as she shook her head. "We are also no different from Ling Yun, remember? We also used everyone to achieve our goals, but everything must have run aground in his hands."
Nangong Ying'er sighed softly after hearing that, she then flew away, and Su Yuan immediately followed as she said. "I didn't expect Ling Yun to order us to come to see him. Luckily, Lucas doesn't suspect me and simply let me go."
Nangong Ying'er didn't say anything and accelerated her flight speed, for she was curious about why Ling Yun summoned them so suddenly.

Meanwhile, in the palace of the vampires, Lucian kneels before Lucifer and the other five demon lords. Even though his expression seemed normal, his heart tightened tightly at their piercing gazes. 'Sigh, whatever happens to me, I hope you can live peacefully with our daughter, Layla.'
Lucifer didn't say anything and held out his hand. Instantly, a black aura emerged from his hand, formed a black hand, and strangled Lucian's neck.
"Ugh!" Lucian had difficulty breathing, especially when Lucifer lifted him into the air. "Lord Lucifer... I know I have made a big mistake... and I will accept all the punishment."
"A mistake?" Lucifer winced and squeezed Lucian's neck even tighter. "You did make a mistake by bringing that human here, but that one mistake of yours already got Mammon killed at his hands, which reduced our total strength drastically. Moreover, we will soon be at war with those humans; his death is a big loss to us. Now tell me the identity of that man, and I might spare your life."
"I can't tell you the identity of that man… so you can kill me…" Since he couldn't go against Ling Yun's orders, Lucian had already given up from the start. Hence, he asked Zorag to send Layla to the human realm, for he already knew the fate that awaited him.
Leviathan suddenly asked. "Are you really going to kill him, Lucifer? Lucian is one of the strongest vampires, and it will cost us even more if you kill him."
"Levi's right, Luci." Asmodeus joined in. "Even though Lucian's mistake was fatal and resulted in Mammon's death, we can't lose another powerful demon or our strength will be further eroded."
Meanwhile, Belphegor didn't say anything and fell asleep in his chair. On the other hand, Beelzebub didn't say anything either, and he continued to chew on the corpse of Mammon's pet wolf.
"You guys are idiots! Lucian has violated many of our realm's rules and caused Mammon's death, yet you two want to spare him instead!" Satan shouted to the two demon lords as he got up from his seat; he then turned to Lucifer. "If you spare him, then I will kill him with my own hands, and I will not take part in the war against those humans!"
"Hey-"
Lucifer immediately stopped Asmodeus, for he knew Satan's character very well, and he never joked with his words. Moreover, their situation was already complicated enough with Mammon's death, so he didn't want to complicate it even more.
After thinking for a while, Lucifer looked at Lucian and immediately absorbed his Demon Qi. Quickly, his body began to age and dry out, and his body had already turned to dust a few seconds later.
Seeing that, Zorag and the other vampires couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, but they also didn't dare to say anything to the demon lords.
After Lucian died, Lucifer turned to the vampires and asked. "Where is the daughter and wife? Why are they not in this place?"
"I-"
Before Zorag could answer his question, Lillith spoke from a distance. "Lord Lucifer, I've heard from Sylvia that Lucian's daughter was captured by that human, so she must be in the human realm now. As for Layla, I know she loves her daughter very much, so I think she went there to look for her."
"Hey, Bitch! Who told you to join in our conversation?" Asmodeus shouted angrily at her, for she was still annoyed that Lillith didn't want to submit to her. Moreover, Lucifer had always protected her, so she didn't dare do anything to her anymore.
Lucifer shook his head at that and asked Lillith. "How did Syliva know about that?"
"Back then, Sylvia was on the prowl in the human realm and accidentally saw that human capture Kate. However, she didn't know what he did to her, and she hasn't returned here since then." Even so, Lillith's story was partially true. Yet, Lucifer seemed unsuspecting at her words, causing Asmodeus to be even more irritated with her.
"If Layla returns to this realm again, you must immediately hand her over to me. As for her daughter, we will take care of her while we battle those humans." After he said that to Zorag, Lucifer turned to the other demon lords. "For now, I forbid you guys to go to the human realm, and we have to rearrange our strength first. Do you all understand?"
"Yes." They answered curtly and nodded to him.
After that, Lucifer and all the demons present at that place immediately left the palace of the vampires, except for Lillith.
Lillith then asked Zorag. "So you sent Layla to the human realm before they came here?"
"Yes." Zorag nodded at her. "That was Lucian's last wish, so I must fulfill it."
"That's good." Lillith then said again to warn them. "Since you already know that man's strength, I hope you can decide which is the right side during the war."
Zorag raised his eyebrows and asked her. "Does that mean you know that human, Queen Lillith?"
"Yes." Lillith nodded at him. "I've met him before, so I knew that his strength is terrifying, and I've decided not to participate in that war, for I don't want my kind to perish in his hands. Lucian must have warned you, too, right? You'd better think carefully about our words so your race can avoid extinction."
"I understand," Zorag answered with a low sigh. "We will think about and discuss everything first and decide when the war starts."

Meanwhile, Layla was flying alone and was already quite far from the Demon Gate. However, she already realized that her husband would not survive, or else Zorag wouldn't have sent her to the human realm in a rush. "Sigh, I have to go to Kate's place as soon as possible, but I'm sure she will be sad after learning of her father's death."
