The Pig Emperor's body stood before Lingyun City like an ancient divine mountain. Lingyun City, capable of housing billions of people, appeared like a toy on a sandbox in its presence.
"A Demon Emperor, that's a Demon Emperor."
The weaker cultivators within Lingyun City felt their souls tremble and their bodies shake uncontrollably upon witnessing this scene.
"Is the Demon Beast Forest about to unleash another great war?"
Some old cultivators who had survived the war tens of thousands of years ago showed a hint of fear in their eyes, recalling the battle that they barely survived.
"Humph, since ancient times, demon beasts have preyed on my human race. These beasts always want to slaughter us, but alas, my strength is insufficient!"
Some veterans clenched their fists, letting out unwilling roars. These veterans were survivors of that war, all bearing disabilities. Even if their cultivation had reached the Saint, Saint King, or even Great Saint realm, they couldn't fully restore their bodies.
Because that war was too tragic; their origins had been damaged. It was a great fortune that they were still alive.
Based on their past war merits, the Great Yu Dynasty originally wanted to reward them with powerful divine pills to restore their origins, but they all refused.
They felt they were unworthy of these rewards because their fallen comrades were more deserving.
Now, seeing the demon beast army approaching again, they only hated that their strength was insufficient to completely annihilate these beasts.
When the giant snake saw the Pig Emperor's appearance, it regained its confidence, having been previously fearful of Yan Wupo's strength.
"Yan Wupo, no matter how strong you are, you are only in the Guiyi realm. Now that Lord Pig Emperor has arrived, you better hand over the murderer and the ten million humans, or are you not afraid of the city being destroyed and everyone dying?"
Relying on the Pig Emperor's backing, the giant snake's voice became much louder.
Although the Pig Emperor had previously scolded the giant snake for being a useless subordinate, it didn't blame it now. As the newly promoted Demon Emperor of the Demon Beast Forest, it didn't have many powerful demon beasts at its disposal compared to the older Demon Emperors. The giant snake, with its peak Demon King strength, was its strongest subordinate and its representative in the Demon Beast Forest. The giant snake's words often represented its will.
Besides, Yan Wupo was only a Guiyi realm cultivator with slightly stronger combat power, but he wasn't a human supreme expert. It would be too demeaning for it to negotiate with him.
It, the Pig Emperor, also had its pride!
Yan Wupo's Law Manifestation of Heaven and Earth was broken by the Pig Emperor's aura, and he suffered a minor injury. He stabilized his figure, held his battle blade, and stood proudly in the void, his hair wildly dancing.
He looked down at the giant snake with disdain and mocked, "I've heard of dogs relying on their masters, but this is the first time I've seen a snake relying on a pig. But your voice isn't quite right; it should be sharper. That would sound much more appropriate."
"Hahaha..."
"A snake relying on a pig, General Yan Wupo is spot on."
"And the voice should be sharper, wouldn't that be an eunuch? This giant snake has the demeanor of a chief eunuch."
"Well said, well said!"
...
On the city wall, many defending soldiers laughed heartily after hearing Yan Wupo's words, joining him in ridiculing and mocking the giant snake.
They were asked to hand over the murderer and ten million humans based on just a pig?
"You..."
The giant snake glared at Yan Wupo, wanting to attack, but it was wary of Yan Wupo's powerful strength.
So, it could only look at the Pig Emperor.
The Pig Emperor snorted coldly, expressing its dissatisfaction with the giant snake. If it didn't really have no better demon beast than the giant snake, it really wouldn't want this useless thing.
With the strength of a peak Demon King, it was chased and beaten by Yan Wupo, who was a minor realm weaker. What was that if not useless?
But even if it was useless, it was the Pig Emperor's representative demon beast. Insulting the giant snake was naturally equivalent to insulting the Pig Emperor.
"A mere human dares to insult this Emperor. Don't you know that an Emperor cannot be humiliated?"
The Pig Emperor's voice was as magnificent as heavenly music, transforming into an extremely powerful pressure that descended upon Yan Wupo.
Yan Wupo's pupils shrank, and he wielded his Demon Slayer Blade, slashing out a bloody blade light towards the top of his head, but the blade light was instantly crushed before the invisible pressure.
Yan Wupo's divine soul frantically issued warnings, and he felt a strong aura of death.
The gap was too big!
The Pig Emperor was only emitting pressure, not even truly attacking, and he couldn't resist it.
Is it going to end like this? Unwilling!
"Pig Emperor, you've crossed the line!"
Just then, Wu Ji Supreme blocked in front of Yan Wupo, easily shattering the pressure.
"Wu Ji!"
The Pig Emperor's eyes flashed with a hint of fear when he saw Wu Ji Supreme.
"Wu Ji Supreme, my son was killed by your human race. Your human race must give me an explanation for this matter." Facing Wu Ji Supreme, the Pig Emperor didn't dare to act rashly.
"You said your son was killed? Is there any evidence that my human race did it? Where's the body? Take it out and let me see," Wu Ji Supreme said indifferently.
The body?
The Pig Emperor's eyes narrowed. Damn it, his son didn't even leave a single cell behind, where would he get a body?
Seeing this, Wu Ji Supreme couldn't help but sneer, "What? Without even a body, how can you prove that my human race did it?"
"Humph, many demon beasts saw a green-clad youth holding a human girl do it. Their words are the evidence," the Pig Emperor snorted coldly.
"Tsk tsk!"
Wu Ji Supreme then clicked his tongue and looked at the Pig Emperor with a surprised expression, saying, "No wonder my human race says someone is pig-headed when describing someone as stupid. Now I finally understand the meaning of this phrase. My people also said that no humans have entered or exited Lingyun City recently! Hey, have you seen anyone enter or exit Lingyun City these days?"
Wu Ji Supreme pointed to a guard, who was Lin Bei's brother-in-law.
And Lin Bei's brother-in-law was naturally not stupid. Understanding Wu Ji Supreme's meaning, he loudly said, "Reporting to Wu Ji Supreme, I am the guard captain stationed at the West Gate by order of my brother-in-law... uh, by order of the City Lord. The West Gate has been closed for the past few days, and no one has entered or exited at all."
"Listen, my people say that no one has entered the city. You can't just listen to your demon beasts' side of the story and say that my human race killed your son. You even slander the murderer as having entered our Lingyun City, and even before understanding the truth of the matter, you gathered countless demon beast armies to approach my Lingyun City. Do you also need to give my human race an explanation for this matter?"
"I've already thought about it for you. You leave this giant snake behind, and then send my human race ten million demon beasts, and we'll call it even."
"How about it?"
Wu Ji Supreme looked at the Pig Emperor with a smile.
"Wu Ji, are you insulting me?" The Pig Emperor's eyes, comparable to small hills, stared at Wu Ji Supreme.
"It's obvious. You even asked. It seems that even if you become a Demon Emperor, you're still a pig," Wu Ji Supreme mocked.
"Hehe, Wu Ji Supreme, did you think I gathered a demon beast army to pressure you to reason with you? I've changed my mind. Today, I will flatten Lingyun City!"
As soon as the Pig Emperor finished speaking, its body rapidly shrunk, and soon, it became taller than an adult, but although its body shrunk, its aura became even higher.
Seeing this, Wu Ji Supreme put away his smile and looked at the Pig Emperor indifferently.
"Just you?" Wu Ji Supreme's gaze was fixed on the Pig Emperor.
"Hehe, I know that Lingyun City has three human supreme experts, so I naturally have some preparations."
"Big brother, third brother, fourth brother, come out!"
As soon as the Pig Emperor's voice fell, three more extremely powerful auras appeared between heaven and earth.
