Chapter 455 The Ancient Evil Vein Appears in the World
The ghost of Prince Six revealed the startling news.
"He resented the Crown Prince for always opposing him, ruining his grand plans. Moreover, the Crown Prince was secretly contacting the Mysterious Sword Sect, intending to bring their cultivators into the Capital City, which violated his taboo."
"So, he sent a shape-shifting demon to devour the Crown Prince and take his place to serve him."
As the ghost of Prince Six finished speaking, his expression grew increasingly grim.
"In any case, if you enter the Capital City, be wary of that dog Emperor."
"He's no longer the Emperor you knew."
"Although still human, he's more cruel and malicious than all the demons in the city."
After finishing his words, the ghost of Prince Six disappeared into the air.
A system task appeared in Li Muyang's view.
[Task: The Sky is Dead 2——Unlocked]
[Task Description: Return to the palace in the guise of the shape-shifting demon to report to the Emperor without being discovered]
"..." The task that popped up in his view gave Li Muyang a headache.
Was he going to meet the final boss now?
This game must be the fastest he had ever encountered a final boss.
The Emperor wasn't devoured by a demon; instead, he was controlling the demons... That's what Prince Six's words meant, right?
That dog Emperor is somewhat atrocious.
He executed loyal ministers and generals, forced half the kingdom into revolt, and even sent monsters to kill his own son... What is this dog Emperor plotting?
And Prince Six is this dog Emperor's own brother, meaning Red Leaf Villa was also brought to ruin by the demons at the Emperor's behest.
It was clear that Prince Six was also slain by monsters.
A spree of killings... Is the Emperor of the Tianyuan Dynasty a fallen star of death?
"Let's go, to the Capital City, to report back to the Emperor in the guise of the shape-shifting demon."
After the ghost of Prince Six disappeared, who knows where he went?
Li Muyang took the young girl away from Red Leaf Villa.
Upon leaving the villa ruins, the girl used the skill of the shape-shifting demon puppet—disguise.
Once the skill was employed, the shape-shifting demon with the Crown Prince's appearance distorted for a moment, then swallowed Nie Yubing.
Soon, the young girl Nie Yubing was engulfed in the ominous fog, completely enveloped by the shape-shifting demon.
"Hmm... Is this the disguise?"
The shape-shifting demon made a surprised, adult male's voice.
The puppet had actually become one with the summoner... This shape-shifting demon was indeed eerie.
Li Muyang opened the system interface and discovered that the shape-shifting demon had a total of seven skills.
Compared to the three simple and common skills of the Yellow Heaven puppet, these seven skills of the shape-shifting demon were far more varied.
The eunuch's voice came from inside.
"Announce! The Crown Prince is granted an audience!"
Hearing this grating announcement, the "Crown Prince" couldn't help but stiffen.
Li Muyang, who followed by his side, also felt an inexplicable tension.
The final boss of this game, the Emperor who controlled all the demons... was just ahead!
But just as Li Muyang took a deep breath and prepared to continue the game, he suddenly sensed a sinister and creeping presence—from reality.
Li Muyang's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately saved the game and logged out, simultaneously opening his eyes in the real world.
He got up in the guest room of the inn and went straight to the window.
The distant sky had already turned dark.
Black clouds churned and spread in his direction, already nearing the outskirts of the city.
The cold wind howled between heaven and earth.
A familiar aura of malice and chill permeated the air, growing ever closer.
"It's coming..." Li Muyang muttered to himself.
He abandoned the room with the sealing array and ran outside.
On the rooftop, Yan Xiaoru looked toward the distance, seemingly witnessing a scene beyond comprehension.
Down in the courtyard of the inn, the disciples of the Demon Sect all widened their eyes, staring at the dark clouds sweeping in from afar.
A secretive chill arose in the hearts of all these Demon Sect disciples.
That deep-seated fear inherited from the lifeblood of all beings, a nightmare from the ancient dark ages...
Noticing this eerie chill, Li Muyang, in disbelief, rushed to the rooftop to join Yan Xiaoru.
He looked toward the distance and finally saw the sight beneath the dark clouds.
A thousand-feet-tall mummy wrapped in bandages was slowly dragging its massive chains forward.
Auspicious Celestial Monarch—the dreadful Evil God from ancient legends, a monster from the dark ages, now appeared between heaven and earth.
Within its translucent body, one could vaguely see the silhouette of a woman.
The woman's expression was cold, her gaze icy, controlling the horrifying creature from within its body.
Her face was overwhelmingly familiar to Li Muyang.
It was none other than Shen Yan, the young lady of the Blood Lotus Sect who had once had interactions with him and escaped during the destruction of her sect!
Seeing this terrifying scene, Li Muyang's mind buzzed, and he suddenly understood.
Why Shen Yan, despite being the young lady of the Blood Lotus Sect, had no cultivation and had learned no Cultivation Techniques.
Because she was of an ancient evil lineage!
Unable to cultivate.
But she possessed the bizarre ability to control evil spirits!
