Two beams of light flashed out, and the two demons returned outside the water cave mansion.
"The Spirit Water Grass has matured and cannot be affected by anything. You and I will converge our demonic energy and follow me to transform into our original forms to enter the mansion!" Bo Gu commanded the centipede in a dignified manner: "When I absorb the Spirit Water Grass, you will be by my side to protect me. After I finish my closed-door cultivation, we will find that damn human together. If we can't find him, kill every human we see in this mountain and refine them all into human sticks!"
"Yes, Lord Bo Gu," the centipede respectfully responded.
With a flash of light, the two demons reverted to their original forms - a turtle and a centipede - and crawled towards the interior of the cave.
"Slow down, Your Imperial Highness is still behind you!" While crawling, Bo Gu called out in dissatisfaction as he watched the centipede quickly climbing ahead.
"Yes, yes, Your Demon Majesty..." Seeing Bo Gu's sluggish pace, the centipede clicked his tongue but dared not speak out. He could only slowly crawl behind Bo Gu.
"It really took me a lot of time to pluck this Spirit Water Grass!" Yi Feng carefully placed the freshly picked Spirit Water Grass into the bamboo basket, wiped the sweat from his brow, and revealed a satisfied expression.
At the same time, Bo Gu and the centipede had finally crawled in and happened to see this scene.
Bo Gu's eyes instantly widened as he froze in place, dumbfounded.
One should know that this was his demon cave as the Demon King, and ordinary minor demons wouldn't even come near it, let alone enter to steal things.
He absolutely did not expect that someone would be so bold.
"D-Demon King, he, he is the human who stole the Sky Heart!" The centipede also froze as he anxiously called out to the Demon King.
"What?" Bo Gu's eyes widened, and boundless fury erupted from his body.
He had been looking everywhere for this damn human, but did not expect this villain to directly come to his lair and take away the Spirit Water Grass that had just matured.
Simply unforgivable...
As the anger reaching the heavens erupted, the thick demonic energy frantically raged within his body as he transformed to attack Yi Feng...
However, just as he was about to transform, a surprised voice rang out.
"What a huge turtle!"
Accompanying the voice, a foot stomped down, landing on Bo Gu's shell!
This stomp forced the transforming Bo Gu to abruptly swallow it back down. It was as if ten thousand mountains were weighing down on his head. Even the mighty Demon King Bo Gu could not move an inch under the stomp.
"What kind of power is this?"
Bo Gu, stomped underfoot, stared wide-eyed, full of shock.
But even thicker than the shock was the anger and humiliation!
He, the esteemed Demon King, was actually trampled under the foot of a mere human. How could he tolerate this?
Bo Gu roared hysterically in his heart while the vast power of the Demon King frantically circulated within his body as he struggled with all his might to flip over and attack from under the foot.
"Quite the feisty old turtle, eh?"
Feeling the strength rising from under his foot, Yi Feng also grew angry. He put down the bamboo basket, picked up the old turtle over his head, and fiercely slammed it down.
This slam left Bo Gu seeing stars as dizziness overwhelmed him.
The hatred in his heart also transformed into fear after this slam.
He couldn't believe that his mighty demonic power as the Demon King was rendered completely useless before this human!
He had never seen something so bizarre and inconceivable in all his time as Demon King!
A thought suddenly occurred to him.
Could this person be one of the top human experts who reached the Martial Saint or Martial Emperor level?
Otherwise, how could he have such unfathomable means and the audacity to completely ignore his authority as Demon King Bo Gu and directly enter his cave to pick Spirit Water Grass?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but gasp. If this was truly the case, then this person could rival the Demon Saints or Demon Emperors of the demon world!
Under such circumstances, what chance did he, Bo Gu, have?
Bo Gu's mind descended into chaos. This was the biggest crisis he had encountered since becoming Demon King.
Just as he was desperately thinking of countermeasures but at a complete loss, Yi Feng's gaze happened to fall upon the centipede nearby.
"There's actually such a huge centipede too?"
Yi Feng frowned. Centipedes were disgusting!
The centipede was frightened by his words. He had truly witnessed how terrible this human was - first crushing Black Feather with one shovel, then trampling the Demon King underfoot. With that level of strength, he had no intention of fighting this human whatsoever.
Thus, in the next moment, he flipped his belly over and lay motionless on the ground.
Seeing this, Bo Gu's eyes widened.
Good job, Night Breeze Centipede. Not only did you not come to protect me in my time of danger, you even blatantly played dead right in front of me. This is simply outrageous!
But this also gave Bo Gu an idea...
After a brief hesitation, he also resolutely gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and collapsed motionless to the ground with a crackling sound.
Although it was quite humiliating for the esteemed Demon King to have to play dead to preserve his life, he had no other choice if he wanted to escape this human's clutches.
Anyway, there were no other witnesses.
