'So it was really him who peered through the whole of Beltran City using an unknown technique. He doesn't look strong at all based on his physical appearance, but he has this kind of unworldly air that makes him mysterious and unfathomable. Let me test this human. Hmph!' Demon Ancestor Jun felt unnerved by Jiu Shen's calm and expressionless face. He wanted to see what this human was hiding beneath his indifferent exterior.
The old demon released his aura without constraint, making the air around him tremble vigorously. The demon soldiers looking at this scene felt dread in their hearts as they watched the old demon's display of prowess. The four Demon Lords behind the Demon Ancestor glanced at the old man in worship and fear.
Flying above the clouds, Aren and his Purple Feathered Flame Eagle tribe gazed at the old demon with serious looks. They knew that this old man was dangerous just on the malignant aura he exudes. Who knew how many lives he had taken to produce this kind of suffocating burst of aura.
Jiu Shen who was the main target of this suppression still had an indifferent expression on his face. It was as if the suppressive aura didn't exist at all.
"Is this how the demons treat their guests?" Jiu Shen spoke in a calm voice as he stared at Demon Ancestor Jun in amusement. In truth, he could smack this old man senseless despite their current difference in cultivation level. The old demon might be a realm stronger than him at the moment, but Jiu Shen had thousands of ways to make him kneel and beg for mercy. However, he didn't want to draw the attention of their leader yet.
'According to Burlock, the man they call 'His Majesty' was an expert at the Void God Realm. This might be nothing to the past Jiu Shen, but it would be difficult for him to fight an expert at that level with his present level of power. 'If that man they call 'His Majesty' is just at the early stage of the Void God Realm, then I might be able to fight him to a standstill if I use my Baleful Dragon Sacred Sword. However, if that man is at the peak stage of the Void God Realm, then it would be troublesome. I should wait until I consume the petal of Divine Ascension Flower and the two Fruits of Cultivation before making any rash moves.' Jiu Shen felt that it was a pity that he could not punish the old brat in front of him.
Demon Ancestor Jun and the four Demon Lords were surprised when they noticed that the suppressive aura wasn't affecting Jiu Shen. Is he really strong or is he just hiding his fear? They didn't know.
Seeing this the old demon increased the power of his suppressive force. The thick floor made of precious stones cracked under this intense pressure and everybody at the scene felt a cold sweat running down their spines.
The old man was finally serious. They all thought in their hearts.
'It seems like I have to show a bit of my power to knock this old brat off his pedestal...' Jiu Shen sighed and shook his head.
Just as everyone thought that the human had finally succumbed in fear, his figure suddenly vanished.
Swoosh!
"Have you had enough fun?" Demon Ancestor Jun felt a hand patting his shoulder followed by an eerily calm whisper. The suppressive force that he displayed disappeared in a blink of an eye.
There wasn't a hint of strength behind the hand patting his shoulder, but Demon Ancestor Jun felt that he could die if he made any wrong moves. He felt as if there was a pair of invisible hands gripping his old heart. One wrong move and he would die. This feeling overwhelmed him, making him almost forget how to breathe.
When Jiu Shen saw that the old demon had almost passed out from his little act, he retracted his hand and chuckled lightly as he said. "Old brat, you should come to my store and drink a bottle or two of my wines. You won't regret coming there."
After saying those words Jiu Shen stared at Aren and the eagles who were still flying above the horizon and said. "Follow me." He tapped his foot on the ground and slowly ascended through the skies. He then shifted his gaze back to Demon Ancestor Jun who was yet to recover himself.
"I'm just here to make a living. Don't worry." Jiu Shen muttered with a carefree smile before disappearing into the skies.
Screech!
Aren and his tribe trailed behind Jiu Shen, leaving behind a group of demons who had their mouths agape from the events earlier.
When there was no longer a shadow of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagles in the sky, the old demon finally regained his senses. He breathed a heavy sigh as he stared in the direction of Jiu Shen's store as he muttered. "That human is very dangerous. I only felt this kind of pressure when I'm in front of His Majesty..."
"What?!" The four Demon Lords were shocked when they heard the old demon's words. His Majesty the Demon Emperor was an expert at the Void God Realm and Demon Ancestor Jun actually said that the human had given him the same kind of pressure similar to His Majesty?! Just who was that human?
"Lord Demon Ancestor, do you want us to report this to His Majesty?" Zagan inquired nervously. He never thought that the owner of that lotus building could be this strong.
Demon Ancestor Jun glanced at his hands that were shaking lightly and replied. "No need. I have to report this to His Majesty in person. The four of you will stay here while I'm gone, but never provoke that human while I'm away. And make sure that your subordinates will not make trouble in that store. Provoking that human might cause the destruction of Beltran City."
The four Demon Lords gasped in shock when they heard his reply, but they hurriedly nodded their heads solemnly.. "Yes, Lord Demon Ancestor."
