So I Am A Demon Descendent!

Chapter 355: Our Team Has A Trouble Magnet Too?

“The Great Deities Palace is not a prison. It might have really suppressed the eight ancient demons here, but if we only rely on murals and conjectures to determine that it is a prison, we are making a big mistake,” Hu Yan said.

“What do you think it is, and what’s your basis?” Faul Anderson asked. He was the one who thought of the prison hypothesis afterall.

“Look there.” Hu Yan pointed to the third mural, where there was the giant creature with nine tails that looked like a fox, walking in the mountains and rivers, in front of which is the towering palace.

The people were puzzled and waited for him to go on.

“I have two points to prove that the Great Deities Palace is not a prison. First, it entered the Great Deities Palace by itself. If the Great Deities Palace is a prison, will the criminals enter it by themselves?

He continued, “Obviously not. Ancient demons are powerful and intelligent. They cannot be regarded as uncivilized beasts. Will intelligent creatures cast their own snares?.”

“Secondly, if it is a prison, why does it open irregularly? It couldn’t possibly be to release the criminals who had finished serving its sentence, right?”

Faul Anderson had nothing to say. If it was a prison, the phenomenon that the Great Deities Palace was opened irregularly couldn’t be explained.

Hu Yan took a deep breath, for his voice was cracking. “Look at this picture carefully, does this not look like us?”

First, they were stunned, and at once they understood. Now everyone frowned.

In the mural, the ancient demons entered the Great Deities Palace by their own accord. Wasn’t that them now? It was the same for all the demon descendants who swarmed to the Great Deities Palace.

“The ancient demon... Is it the same as us?” Eva Capre gulped.

This conclusion was a little scary. The Great Deities Palace was shrouded in a mysterious veil, and the traditional view was the speculation that the Great Deities Palace was the remnants of the Ancient Demons. But now, it seemed that the truth was not so simple. Even ancient demons in ancient times were eager to enter the Great Deities Palace, just like the “mortals” who wanted the treasures.

This essentially increased the significance of the Great Deities Palace to an insane level that no-one had ever thought of before.

“It’s dangerous here. It’s not where we should be.” Hu Yan breathed quickly and stated his hypothesis. “The Great Deities Palace seemed to be opened regularly. We don’t know why it opens, but the eight ancient demons who entered the Great Deities Palace knew.”

“Countless years ago, they entered the Great Deities Palace and then died in it. Now, the Great Deities Palace is open again. No matter what the reason is, it definitely did not open for us.”

They thought for a moment, and all shivered in fear that Hu Yan’s hypothesis could actually be true.

The Great Deities Palace existed in ancient times. It was opened at some point then. Then the ancient demons entered the Great Deities Palace and were suppressed there. Now it was open again.

The induction sounds fearsome. Would those who have entered the Great Deities Palace all head on the same ending as the ancient demons?

Even the powerful ancient demons died here. No one is confident that they are more powerful than those.

You worry too much, thought Wright Green, shrugging. “Demonic Priest Wang Chen had been in the Great Deities Palace twice. Twenty years ago, the heir of the Li family also entered the Great Deities Palace, and he also came out alive.”

Everyone nodded.

“I don’t know how the Demonic Priest came out alive, but the ending of Li Wuxiang isn’t exactly fantastic. Remember how Li Wuxiang died.”

“Well he was forced to die by you demon descendants in China.” Eva Carpe joked.

“But in fact, he didn’t need to die at all. He himself was a half-step Gokudo Path and with him was the Unparalleled War Spirit. Not only that he had a Master who was a legit Gokudo Path. Even then he chose to die. It was clear that he wasn’t killed, it was purely a suicide.”

Hu Yan glanced at the crowd. “Then the question is why did he kill himself. The only possibility is related to the Great Deities Palace. This place is too dangerous.”

He pointed to the murals on the wall. “How could these events from 80 years ago be painted on the wall? Who drew it? Have you thought about it? The danger had never disappeared. Eighty years ago, how did Demonic Priest kill so many demon descendants experts of the Aoki family?”

His words send shivers up the spines of everyone present, and their scalps felt numbness.

“Get out of here, get out of here as soon as possible, uncle. Whatever is here, we don’t want it anymore.” The pretty face of Aoki Yui was slightly white.

Visibly conflicted, Aoki Takuya nodded after thinking about it for a while.

The reality was different from what they had thought. What they dreamed of might not be worth mentioning to the Great Deities Palace, but there was a bigger secret in this place, and it was not a secret they deserved to peep at.

“Regardless of your decisions, I’m leaving.” Li Peiyun made up his mind the fastest. He entered the Great Deities Palace mainly out of curiosity, as though he was a tourist. As for what he could gain in the Great Deities Palace, he didn’t demand anything in the first place.

At this time, he caught a glimpse of the secrets of the Great Deities Palace. His first reaction was to leave. Whoever else wanted to die here, he didn’t care, leaving this risky location was the first order of business on his mind.

He dashed for a few steps, stepped on the wall, rose to the sky lightly, then grasped the chain and climbed up rapidly.

God of War gnashed his teeth and curse, then climbed up following Li Peiyun’s lead.

The Soul Destroying Alliance thought about it. They choose to leave here first. Treasure hunting was a secondary task to their main task which was to kill the Unparalleled War Spirit. Now they could only hope that the intelligence of Baoze employees was good enough. As long as they were not stupid, they should be able to think of exchanging keys to go to different spaces.

One key could only open one door, and one door alone was obviously not enough to unlock the true secrets of the Great Deities Palace.

Eva Carpe and other leaders left the pool with their own people.

The Thai woman holding the baby looked at the crowd climbing, and at the Great Demons Alliance people who were still at the bottom of the pool. After a little thought, she left with the people of the soul destroying alliance.

Protector Eagle grabbed the chain and was ready to climb. Turning around, she saw that the Emperor was still standing. She shouted, “Emperor, are we not going?”

The other protectors then looked to their own emperor.

“Come here.” The Emperor’s voice was cold and crisp. She took out a bucket and a brush that was about half of a human’s height. The protectors came back at a loss and gathered around her.

She pointed to the tin bucket and ordered, “Fill the bucket with your blood.”

Protector Right did not understand and asked, “Why? What does Your Highness want to do?”

“Shush and do it.”

“Oh...”

The Emperor was very domineering. She never liked her subordinates to have any doubts and questions about her orders. She was essentially a female dictator. Sometimes when Hu Yan expressed his opinion eloquently during meetings, she would listen carefully, but in fact, she had already made a decision. She listened carefully only to show that she was a leader willing to adopt the opinions of her subordinates.

After his eloquent speech, Hu Yan would look at the Emperor, who would usually say, “I think that’s not feasible.”

Whatever she agreed with Hu Yan with was conclusions that both of them had arrived at independently, or things that were so minor that she couldn’t be bothered to care.

So, although they didn’t understand her intention, the protectors did so quickly without hesitation and cut their own arteries one after another, and a stream of blood flowed into the tin bucket. Soon, the bucket was full.

The protectors took some medicine to recover their physical strength. Even for beings as strong as them, it would be inevitable for them to feel weak if they released so much blood in one go.

The Emperor held the huge brush, dipped it into the bucket of blood and stirred it. After the brush absorbed enough blood, she lightly skimmed the “ink” on the edge of the bucket, and then she suddenly started to draw on the ground.

The twisted “ink” took shape. In the strange shapes, it seemed like she was just drawing glyphs.

The twisted lines and patterns were confusing, but after a long time, the protectors found that it contained some rules and were not just meaningless symbols.

Although they were curious, no one dared to ask. The Emperor was a very domineering leader. When she was doing things and thinking, she didn’t like to have people questioning her.

At first glance, it seems that she is a leader with a very bad character and difficult to get along with. Her bad character was a fact that people would not speak of, but all knew of. That said, the only fact one had to keep in mind while doing things for the Emperor was that the Emperor was the law, the Emperor was the truth, and the Emperor was the one and only legend.

As long as they hold on to that fact, they would live a comfortable life in the Great Demons’ Alliance.

If one was willing to kneel down and lick Emperor’s shoes, she would favor him more...

Of course “licking” was just a concept. In fact, many of the protectors were more than willing to lick her shoes. But the Emperor had never allowed anyone to actually do it.

She suddenly stopped patining, leaning on the big brush. Standing still, her eyes were serious.

After more than ten seconds, Protector Right said cautiously, “Emperor?”

Protector Right was the most loyal worshiper of the emperor. In ancient times, she would be like the dowry servant girl. She was willing to follow the footsteps of the Emperor as a loyal little maid for life.

The Emperor ignored her, and the flames sprang up at her feet, crawling along the ground, burning the ink into black lines.

“How embarrassing, the painting was wrong...” she murmured in a low voice and stretched out her hand. The white palm turned into a lump of greyish brown flesh sprawling with ferocious blood vessels that was glowing as though breathing. “Do you remember the correct passcode? Oh, I forget, your consciousness has been obliterated. ”

Blood vessels glowed red and fluctuated. It did not have a consciousness and was unable to speak. Although both were remnants of the ancient demon, that Slime in the little slave was able to create a consciousness. But this thing in her body had been wiped out of will and completely reduced just to a tool.

...

Li Peiyun was the first to leave the bronze palace. He stood by the pool in a daze. The scene outside caught him by surprise.

Behind him, one by one, more than thirty people who went down to the bottom of the pool returned to the bronze hall.

Shing!

Gauss Kashub drew out the broadsword that he carried on his back. A burning smell emitted, as the sword seemed to incinerate even the air around it.

Almost at the same time, those who saw the scene drew out their own weapons and went into a state of alert.

In front of the crowd were pieces of clothes scattered on the ground, as well as all kinds of accessories.

That was what was left of the people they left on the alert, about twenty of them, but then they disappeared, leaving only their clothes and belongings.

Li Peiyun’s scalp was numb, and proclaimed, “But there is no Li Xianyu in our team.”

God of War was stunned and asked, “What do you mean?”

“As soon as I said there was something wrong here, I was in trouble when I came out,” said Li Peiyun in a low voice. “This is clearly the welfare unique to Li Xianyu’s teammates.”

Everyone was speechless.
