Chapter 178: Chapter 180: The Mysterious Crazy Old ManMu Can, after striking down Mo Jing, did not pause for a second. With Dragon Ascending Nine Steps, he maneuvered through the air, each step stronger than the last. Eventually, on the ground, the Demon Clan lay scattered in agony, either dead or crippled. Mu Can showed no mercy to these demons that slaughtered wantonly in the Mortal World. The surrounding captains, who had previously mocked Mo Jing, were no longer speaking. Instead, they looked at Mu Can with grave expressions, intuitively sensing that this young Cultivator from the Mortal World, who was rampaging through the battlefield, was a terrifying adversary, possessing an Attack Power that was rare even in the Demon World. "He is still a Martial Venerate..." To achieve such a feat in a battle among those of the same rank, was enough to silence everyone. "How is this possible." Seeing the demons collapsed on the ground, Zheng Ming forgot to continue attacking, his gaze fixed on Mu Can standing in the center, unable to speak. This level of strength, to battle one against thirty peers without even a hint of disordered breath. Utilizing Dragon Ascending Nine Heavens twice consecutively, Mu Can’s breathing remained undisturbed, as if he wasn’t the one who had just slaughtered widely. "It’s your turn now." Mu Can grinned, intending to spare none of the thirty thousand demons. Just as he was about to make a move, a furious roar sounded, and a gigantic creature heavily landed in front of Mu Can, causing mud to splatter all around. Seeing that his subordinates were no match for Mu Can, the Demon Clan Commander finally could not sit still and had to make a move. Noticing this, Purple Cloud floated to Mu Can’s side, her sleeves fluttering as if she were a fairy. Upon seeing Purple Cloud, Zheng Ming recalled their encounter in the teahouse; if not for her, he would not have spoken insultingly. Now seeing Purple Cloud landing beside Mu Can like a gentle wife, envy filled his heart. "He is just a mortal, why should he gain the favor of a goddess? Even if he is powerful, I am a Saint Heir, and these lowly mortals..." Zheng Ming raged inwardly, swearing that if he had the chance, he would kill Mu Can and have Purple Cloud all to himself. Seeing Purple Cloud beside him, Mu Can gave her a reassuring look, indicating he would handle this Demon World Commander himself. Despite the Commander having the strength of a Martial Saint from the Human World, Mu Can felt no fear. After all, he still had his most powerful ace, the Reincarnation Pearl, a heavenly Treasure that even a supreme being could not resist. "Poor mortal, come over to our Demon Clan, and I promise you wealth and splendor." Seeing Mu Can’s astonishing combat prowess, the Commander of the Demon Clan actually felt a desire to recruit such talent. After all, before invading the Mortal World, the highest commander of the Demon Clan had told them that if they encountered talented individuals from the Mortal World willing to fight for the Demon World, they should definitely draw them into the Demon Clan. This would be greatly advantageous for the invasion of the Mortal World. Clearly, this Commander of the Demon Clan in front of Mu Can had precisely this intention. "Join you? To become your dogs?" Mu Can asked with a cold smile. "You can’t say it like that. Isn’t there a saying in the Mortal World? ’A wise man submits to circumstances.’ The realms of celestial beings and demons are both vying for the Mortal World, and it will inevitably be conquered. Joining us now holds much more meaning than after it being conquered." The Commander explained patiently. He was not in a hurry at all. This was just one of the dozens of battlefields currently in the Nanyuan Empire. Once a third of these satellite cities were breached, the Array protecting the Nanyuan Empire Capital would be broken. At that point, attacking and conquering the capital, and eliminating all resistance within the Nanyuan Empire would mean transforming it into the first stronghold of the Demon World in the Mortal World. It is said that the Great Powers of the Demon World had long mastered the technology to transform the Mortal World, turning it into a second Demon World was just a matter of time. "Hehe, do you know why the Demon Lord I hold has only a head left?" Mu Can did not answer the Commander’s question and instead asked back. "I really do not know, as places with Demon Venerable Level Demon Summoning Arrays, are surely heavily guarded by the Demon Clan, and there would be several Commanders protecting it too. I truly have no idea how you managed to seal the Demon Lord." The Commander shook his head, according to the setup by the Demon World, all Demon Lords would only descend in the most assured situations, ones that could overcome the Heavenly Tribulation and would then be protected by the vast armies of the Demon World until recovery. "How come I never encountered the protecting Demon World soldiers?" Mu Can thought to himself but did not reveal his doubts. "What use is it for you to have Demon World soldiers for protection, with these trashes?" Mu Can looked around at the demons, cursing arrogantly. The demons soldiers, who could not even withstand a round in his hands, were no different from trash. "Demons, dead, dead, all dead." The mad old man also arrived next to Mu Can, staring intensely at the Demon Clan Commander, his eyes gradually turning blood-red, and he spoke irrationally. Mu Can had a thought. Indeed, he had not found the soldiers protecting the soon-to-descend Demon Lord in Mingyang City, implying that someone had previously eliminated these soldiers. If the mad old man was the one who eliminated them, then everything made sense. "When things settle down, I must refine elixirs to restore his sanity, and then ask what exactly happened," Mu Can thought silently. He had consulted Purple Cloud on treating the mentally disturbed with elixirs, but he had been too busy traveling to refine the necessary elixirs. "Who are you? Why do you carry such a heavy scent of blood on you?" Upon seeing the mad old man, the Commander examined him and, shocked, took a step back. Using a Secret Technique unique to the Demon Clan, he observed the old man, who appeared like an extraordinary butcher, his whole body blood-red, covered entirely with the aura of dead demons, even with the resentful spirits of the Demon Clan entwined around this elder, making it nearly impossible to approach the mad old man, yet, within a meter from him, there were countless resentful spirits of the Demon Clan, including some stronger Commander Level ones. "A butcher born from annihilation." The Commander felt a tremor in his heart. Considering how many demons this terrifying old man had killed, could it be that he slaughtered the entire guard team of the Demon Lord? "Who exactly are you?" The Demon Clan Commander’s voice trembled a bit, as the old man was exceedingly terrifying. "It does not matter who he is. What’s important is that none of you will escape today," Mu Can knew that the Commander might have figured out something about the mad old man but didn’t care in the least, confident that once he cured the old man, everything would come to light. "Then let us battle," roared the Demon Clan Commander, his figure suddenly enlarging, growing a size larger, and he lunged at Mu Can. Mu Can felt a chill run down his spine as he sensed himself being targeted, and he sighed inwardly. Martial Saint Level was indeed the highest acknowledged combat force in the Mortal World openly; he truly had no way to contend against a Martial Saint.
