Chapter 529: Demon Arrival Conference
"Everyone has heard about the events in Fusang Kingdom, right?"
Jiang Huo spoke with a warm smile.
The other four nodded silently.
The Ten Thousand Demons Cavern was now heavily guarded, and the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons showed no signs of taking action, leaving the Demon Arrival Organization unable to stir up trouble on the frontlines there, despite their desire to do so.
As for the Terrifying Mountain Range, the most mysterious of the forbidden lands, they hadn’t been able to establish contact with its inhabitants either.
The Demon’s Nest, on the other hand, was filled with uncontrollable lunatics, especially the seventy-two Demon Gods, who were impossible to communicate with.
Thus, the Demon Arrival Organization was left with stirring trouble in Fusang Kingdom.
much to the organization's frustration...
after painstakingly collaborating with a Heavenly Ghost General from Takamagahara on a Ghost Nest descent, their entire operation was dismantled within two hours.
but every last one of their planted agents in Hakata City had been eradicated.
An utter, complete failure!
It was the most humiliating setback in the history of the Demon Arrival remnants, who prided themselves on their troublemaking prowess!
Previously, it took the Kingdoms’ armies tremendous effort to thwart their plans. Now, in just two hours, they were defeated.
Rumors spread that the Demon Arrival Organization had lost its edge, becoming a source of ridicule.
Their reputation was in tatters!
Even some of the smaller duchies secretly allied with them began to have second thoughts.
They were starting to see the organization as less formidable than it once was.
And the root cause of all this...
was the Demon Arrival Organization’s long-hunted top-ranked talent, the non-specialist Ling Zhan.
"Of course, I’ve heard about it, and I’m well aware of the situation."
"That non-specialist is undoubtedly a significant threat to us!"
Avid remarked coldly.
"I've said before that we should mobilize the entire organization to kill this kid, but you all didn’t take it seriously!"
"Now he’s grown, and he’s even caught the attention of that Rotten Witch. Recently, even Cathy told me herself,"
"that she’ll be closely watching our activities. She may even interfere."
Andrea folded her arms, her abundant figure almost spilling out.
She spoke with a tone of disdain.
was constantly on her mind.
her thoughts of him were filled with hate.
She could never forget that previous encounter.
Back then, she’d traveled to Dragon Kingdom with supreme confidence.
She’d boasted to her organization that she would bring back all the top talents with ease.
But then, unexpectedly...
that damned human boy held a Sun and Moon Rotation Talisman created by a tier-four Grand Heavenly Master.
He’d transported all the other recruits to safety.
But that wasn’t even the most infuriating part.
What enraged her most was...
she hadn’t been able to capture him, and he had toyed with her instead.
Every time she remembered how her armor and clothes had been shredded, leaving her bare before that human boy, an overwhelming anger filled her.
A dignified tier-four powerhouse, humiliated before a boy barely in his twenties.
The worst part was, in the end, she could do nothing to him!
Every night since, it haunted her, becoming a recurring nightmare.
In her mind, she’d planned out exactly how she would capture and torment that human boy like a plaything.
She wanted more than revenge.
She wanted to enslave him, making him serve her for the rest of his life.
But now, that fantasy seemed impossible.
Cathy had already warned her. She might not be able to dictate the actions of others in the organization,
but as Cathy’s close confidante of several centuries, Andrea was strictly forbidden from acting.
If she were caught interfering, she’d face the consequences.
Andrea understood well that the Rotten Witch was insane and meant every word.
Now, if the organization wanted to target that non-specialist, they’d first have to bypass the layers of protection around him.
And evade the Rotten Witch’s watchful eye.
"Andrea, I heard that human boy saw everything the last time you fought him?"
"Hey! How about sharing that sight with old me? I haven’t had the chance to see your lovely figure yet!"
"No reason to let outsiders enjoy the view while keeping it from us, right?"
the shriveled, slovenly old Daoist chuckled wickedly.
"Y-yeah, right! No-no-no reason he sh-should get to see and not us!"
The pig-headed beastman Herman stammered, his vulgar gaze fixed on Andrea’s alluring form.
If Andrea lost her strength,
he’d be the first to pounce on her.
“Who said you’re an insider?”
To the pig-headed beastman, any restraint was pointless if it meant satisfying his desires.
Andrea growled with a look of disgust.
"Pretending to be all innocent now?"
"You—you’ve lived so long; I doubt you haven’t had dozens of men!"
Herman shot back with biting disdain, his stuttering only adding to the annoyance.
"Oh! Old me here has something to add!"
"Brother Pig here is wrong—this woman really hasn’t had a man. I checked her fate through divination and found no traces of romance over her centuries. She’s most likely still a virgin."
The sleazy Daoist added with a mischievous glint.
Herman’s eyes widened with an intensified lust and fervor as he turned back to Andrea.
"Andrea! Name your price!"
"Three artifacts to spend a night with you—is that fair?"
Andrea sneered, "I'd sooner bed that non-specialist boy than waste a night with you fools!"
Enraged, Herman's eyes bulged, his aura flaring like an erupting volcano!
Jiang Huo spoke with a grim tone, ending the bickering.
Bringing their quarrel to a halt.
"The matter at hand is finding a way to eliminate that non-specialist."
"If we don’t deal with him soon, he’ll become a grave threat!"
"As much as I hate to admit it, if we let him grow, he will undoubtedly become our organization’s nemesis."
"Think carefully. We need a solid plan!"
Jiang Huo sighed deeply, his gaze shifting to his old comrades.
