Chi Zhu was the fat Red Dog that Lu Sheng kicked off the tree previously and ran to find those little Red Dogs.
Its red fur was smooth and shiny. It curled up into a ball and laid on the ground, looking round like a red ball.
When the other Red Dogs saw Chi Zhu’s actions, they followed suit.
Shangguan Dian sized them up for a while and raised his eyebrows. “You came to the human world at such a young age. Do you want to die?”
“We… We were tricked here!”
Chi Zhu said pitifully.
They did not know that the human world was so dangerous. They thought that there was really a lot of delicious food in the human world like what Chi Ming and those Illusory Demons said.
It was only after they arrived that they realized that the human world was much more dangerous than the Demon Realm.
“Demon King, please send us home. We swear never to come to the human world again!”
Once Chi Zhu spoke, the other Red Dogs nodded their heads in agreement.
Shangguan Dian pondered and asked, “Who is Chi Ming to your Red Dog tribe?”
“He is the new commander of our Red Dog tribe and the Illusory Demon tribe.”
Back then, Shangguan Lin betrayed them and colluded with the various commanders to kill the previous Demon King and Demon Queen. After that, more than half of them were killed by Shangguan Dian and people from the Immortal World. However, there were also one or two who escaped the net.
Now that the various tribes of the Demon Realm had chosen their commanders again, there was nothing new about this.
After Shangguan Dian nodded slightly, he looked at Lu Sheng and asked, “Little niece, didn’t you say that you’ve taken in Chi Ming as well?”
“Yes.”
At that time, Lu Sheng was prepared to ignore it. If not for the State Minister’s and Chu Sihan’s advice to her to take in Chi Ming, she would not have done so either.
She released Chi Ming. Although Chi Ming had recovered some of his demonic powers, he was still very weak.
He laid on the ground and was momentarily confused.
When he saw the person’s face clearly, his expression changed drastically.
“Demon… Demon King!”
The voice sounded terrified.
Chi Ming did not expect the Demon King to wake up so quickly and find him!
“You’re Chi Ming?”
Shangguan Dian sized him up with an extremely disdainful expression.
“Have the Red Dog tribe and the Illusory Demon tribe declined? Why did they let a weakling with only a thousand years of cultivation become the commander?”
Chi Ming transformed into his human form and hurriedly knelt in front of Shangguan Dian to beg for mercy. “I was blinded by greed and stole the Demon King Token. Demon King, please punish me!”
“Punish?”
Shangguan Dian sneered. “You’re not worthy of me doing it myself.”
He looked at the trembling little Red Dogs and said to Chi Ming, “Hand over the Demon King Token and bring these demons back to the Demon Realm. Go and find Elder Netherworld yourself. Elder Netherworld will be responsible for your punishment.”
Chi Ming’s body trembled, and his face became even paler than before.
Elder Netherworld was in charge of punishments in the Demon Realm. He was born to a human and a demon. Previously, he had suffered a lot of humiliation in the Demon Realm. Later, due to his viciousness, Shangguan Dian took a liking to him and allowed him to become the Disciplinary Elder.
This person bore a grudge against the demons of the Demon Realm. Any demon who made a mistake would not benefit from his hands.
Although Chi Ming was afraid of Elder Netherworld, he was willing to be punished for the sake of his tribe.
“Yes!”
He took out the Demon King Token and handed it to Shangguan Dian.
Shangguan Dian received the Demon King Token and sized it up for a while. His expression immediately turned cold.
He threw the Demon King Token at Chi Ming.
“How dare you trick me with a fake Demon King Token?”
This Demon King Token looked identical to the original Demon King Token, but it was not the real one.
“Impossible!”
Chi Ming widened his eyes in disbelief. “I used this Demon King Token to open the boundary back then. How can it be fake?”
