Every day the puppet is playing dead
Chapter 17
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Although it has always been said that whoever has the biggest fist in the Demon Realm is the master, but in the power struggle, there are always a few thorns.
After Yuan Wuxin became the current demon venerable, many former demon venerables and old aristocrats always looked down upon Yuan Wuxin.
Let a half-blood rule the Demon Realm?ridiculous.
Let the rest of the mixed blood enter the Demon Realm?hateful.
Therefore, something was created out of nothing, and some demons with ulterior motives in the demon world asked Yuan Wuxin to hold a ceremony on the night of the full moon tonight.
The ceremony is outside of the Blood Moon Palace, and it is the altar used by previous Demon Lords for coronation.
Chong Yu followed behind Yuan Wuxin. Under the illumination of the blood moon, he followed Yuan Wuxin's figure step by step, passing through layers of cloth banners, stone pillars, and bucket arches, leaving the Blood Moon Palace behind.
Along the bluestone road, at intervals, there would be demon guards in black sacrificial attire kneeling respectfully to Chongyu and Yuan Wuxin.
Chongyu followed Yuan Wuxin, and seeing Yuan Wuxin's straight back, he suddenly had the illusion that Yuan Wuxin was not going to a "Hongmen Banquet" where life and death would be unknown, but to go to the boarding house of his family calmly. His own throne.
"Eleven, are you afraid?"
Yuan Wuxin suddenly turned his head and asked the person behind him.
Chong Yu hesitated for a moment, he didn't know how to answer.
In this situation, he considered it clearly. In the eyes of everyone else, he was always Yuan Wuxin's puppet.
what does this mean?
If Yuan Wuxin died, there was no doubt that he would die too.
Or, life is better than death.
Chongyu still remembers the Wuxiang boss he met;
Wu Xiang's sudden attack let Chong Yu know that many demons believed in the rumor that "collecting all his body parts can summon the artifact".
If Yuan Wuxin is gone, even if other people don't take his life, they will definitely find a way to erase his sanity and make him a "tool man" in the true sense.
After thinking about it for a while, Chongyu was upright, and his answer was resounding:
"The subordinates will definitely stay by the master's side to protect the master."
Yuan Wuxin was stunned for a moment by this generous statement, he probably never thought that the always dull puppet could say such a thing.
Yuan Wuxin's brows and eyes relaxed a little, and he smiled at Chongyu:
"it is good."
Chong Yu nodded solemnly.
He doesn't want to "die".
After walking for a while, the two arrived at the place of sacrifice.
Chongyu followed behind Yuan Wuxin, and when he saw the whole appearance of the sacrificial square, he couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth:
Good guy, so a group of people are here.
In the square, all kinds of strange demons stood together, densely packed, each of them stood in a specific position, and stood neatly in several rows;
In the first few rows of this group of demons stood humanoid demon nobles and generals wearing complicated costumes. After hearing the noise, they all turned their heads and looked at Yuan Wuxin and Chongyu who were standing at the end of the bluestone road.
There were still guards standing on both sides of the Qingshiban Road, they were wearing special sacrificial clothes, seeing Yuan Wuxin coming, these guards immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Yuan Wuxin.
And when these guards knelt down and kowtowed, it seemed that some switch was turned on, and the rest of the demons present all knelt down on one knee, showing their respect to Yuan Wuxin.
Seeing this scene, Yuan Wuxin sneered softly.
The sneer was so soft that no one heard it except Chong Yu who was standing closest to Yuan Wuxin.
Chong Yu couldn't help but glance at Yuan Wuxin, and then he looked up at the sky.
At this time, three moons were in the sky, two of which were perfectly round, and the blood-red moonlight poured down, dyeing the night sky an ominous red.
On the left and right sides of the altar in the center of the square, stood a high-ranking priest wearing sacrificial attire. They all covered their faces with strange masks. Seeing Yuan Wuxin coming, they bowed to Yuan Wuxin to show respect, and then said:
"Please recite the prayer, Your Majesty."
Yuan Wuxin nodded, and then he walked towards the altar step by step.
Chong Yu didn't need Yuan Wuxin to say much, and followed Yuan Wuxin by herself.
The footsteps of the two of them almost completely overlapped, and their breaths and breaths were extremely tacit. If they hadn't seen one person and one puppet with their own eyes, some people would think that Yuan Wuxin was the only one here.
In fact, Chong Yu is not as calm as he appears on the surface.
The rumors about him seemed to have spread widely. Following Yuan Wuxin, Chong Yu could clearly feel that from the crowd below, there were always a few eyes on him deliberately, scrutinizing him unscrupulously.
These scrutinizing gazes are full of malice and evaluation, as if Chongyu is no longer Yuan Wuxin's puppet, but a piece of meat that can be slaughtered.
At that moment, although Chong Yu was still a puppet body, he still felt a bone-piercing coldness.
It was so cold that his hands were trembling involuntarily, and his joints creaked and creaked.
There is only him and Yuan Wuxin here.
Because of his blood, Yi Sheng is not a demon, so he cannot participate in this ceremony. He and Yuan Wuxin can only rely on themselves.
Compared with Chongyu's inner panic, Yuan Wuxin's surface is still calm and peaceful.
The blood moon was about to be complete. Logically speaking, Yuan Wuxin should have degenerated, but the majestic spiritual power in his body was still there, and he did not show any flaws in him.
With a steady hand, he took the parchment from the hand of the high-ranking priest, then Yuan Wuxin turned his head slightly, and whispered to Chongyu who was standing beside him:
"Peace."
Chong Yu froze for a moment.
These two words seem to have supreme magic power, and instantly soothed Chongyu who was in a panic.
That's right, Yuan Wuxin is here, what is he afraid of?
Chong Yu glanced at Yuan Wuxin, let out a small breath, and relaxed his tense body.
Next, Yuan Wuxin stood in the center of the altar. He just opened the parchment and was about to recite the prayer when suddenly a voice came from below:
"Wait a minute!"
Yuan Wuxin paused, he raised his head, turned around, and looked under the altar.
I saw a demon standing up, his expression was sullen, and when Yuan Wuxin looked at him, he cupped his hands and said:
"My lord, there is one less magic general here."
"Oh? Who?"
"No phase."
The demon gritted his teeth and pressed forward step by step:
"Wuxiang is my good friend. After entering the palace this morning to meet Your Majesty, he has not returned. Does Your Majesty know why?"
In the demon world, except for the supreme ruler who is the demon king, the rest of the cities are governed by the city master, who is revered as the "devil general".
Wuxiang who wanted to peel Chongyu's skin was not the city lord, but Wuxiang was very old, and it was said that he was a rare pure-blooded demon in the demon world, so he was favored by the opposition.
"How does this seat know?"
Yuan Wuxin sneered,
"Okay, Wu Xiang knew about tonight's ceremony, but he was absent for no reason. After the ceremony, I will punish him."
The demons didn't expect Yuan Wuxin to strike first, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly retorted:
"I went to find Wuxiang, Wuxiang disappeared for no reason."
"Missing? I can't find Wuxiang in the Demon Realm, so he must have defected."
Yuan Wuxin nodded solemnly, and immediately asked the high priest beside him,
"Immediately arrest Wuxiang, catch Wuxiang, reward."
This completely unreasonable act of playing cards made the demons below look confused, while Chong Yu, who was standing next to Yuan Wuxin, took a lot of effort to hold back his laughter.
In Chong Yu's eyes, Yuan Wuxin at this moment is extremely majestic.
Perhaps because he realized that he was too weak, a high-ranking priest standing below stepped forward directly, and simply said bluntly:
"Yuan Wuxin, you are really covering the sky with one hand, deceiving the upper and lower, and openly taking in those mixed bastards. Do you know that sooner or later those bastards will mix with the blood of the demon world!!! I have never had such a precedent in the demon world!!!"
After saying this, the priest pointed to the puppet standing behind Yuan Wuxin, and said hoarsely:
"If you still keep this disaster, if you go against the sky, you will be punished by heaven!!!"
As soon as the priest finished speaking, Chong Yu instantly noticed that several scorching gazes suddenly came from under the altar, staring at him firmly. If the gaze could be turned into a sharp sword, Chong Yu's body must be riddled with holes.
Yuan Wuxin didn't even frown, he was already familiar with these remarks, so he just said indifferently:
"The so-called mixed bloods of yours all have the blood of the demon race... If you abandon them, it will prove that you demon race don't care about your flesh and blood."
There was an uproar under the altar.
Chong Yu couldn't help but look sideways at Yuan Wuxin.
He thought that Yuan Wuxin was still the naive "Holy Mother", but he didn't expect that Yuan Wuxin was not what he imagined.
These words made the priest who wanted to play the emotional card momentarily speechless, his face turned extremely red, and he pointed a finger at Yuan Wuxin several times, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
Seeing that the words could not be provoked, the high-ranking priest suddenly changed his face. He threw a look behind him, and the two demon generals standing beside him suddenly became violent——
Above the ceremony, according to regulations, all weapons and storage rings are not allowed to be brought into the altar.
If it was normal, all the demons present would have nothing else.
Today is the night of the full moon, and it is the only time when Yuan Wuxin may show his flaws, and it is also the only time when the opposition can kill Yuan Wuxin. Since this opportunity is rare, of course it cannot be wasted.
The two demons jumped onto the altar, immediately drew their weapons, and slashed at Yuan Wuxin and the puppet behind him.
Their movements were crisp, quick and powerful, with sharp spells and murderous aura attached to each knife and sword, and when they were struck down in an instant, the burst of spiritual power could flatten the entire altar in one fell swoop.
The spiritual power that exploded suddenly at that moment stunned all the demons in the festival.
That's all for rebellion, this is the first time that a demon race has killed the master at a ceremony in an open and aboveboard manner.
"Boom—"
With a loud noise, Yuan Wuxin raised his hand, and a barrier instantly enveloped the entire altar, successfully blocking the attack;
The entire altar also sank several meters under the huge pressure, cracks appeared on the ground, and a large amount of dust was stirred up, engulfing the altar in an instant.
The scene under the altar became chaotic, and the rest of the demons and priests began to flee in all directions;
Some demons stayed behind, and they were examining the turmoil.
The barrier that Yuan Wuxin opened was useful, but it also restrained the people inside the barrier.
Yuan Wuxin did not fight back immediately, but chose to defend, which is enough to prove the difference.
The two demons exchanged glances, one of them picked up the knife in his hand, and just as he was about to strike again, a figure flashed out of the dust——
The man was holding a sword, and he was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of one of the demons. The sword in his hand emitted a bright and dazzling sword light, which instantly penetrated the heart of the demons.
One hit kill.
The demon's eyes widened, and he didn't figure out why the puppet still had a weapon in his hand until he died.
Also, why can the puppet come out of the barrier without destroying it.
After Chongyu succeeded in one blow, he did not love to fight, but fell freely, and cut off the high-ranking priest who was about to watch the show with his sword.
Red blood splashed onto Chong Yu's face, and Chong Yu didn't bother to care about it.
As a selfish man, he just wants to live;
If he wanted to survive, he wouldn't bother to dwell on some philosophical issues.
After beheading two demons one after another, the remaining demon finally came to his senses and turned around with a grim expression, wanting to kill the puppet.
Chong Yu took a moment to glance at the demon, he touched his stomach——
Before coming, he discovered that his stomach could hold things.
This is scary, but useful.
His sword and teleportation scroll were brought in in such a way.
Only now there is a problem.
Since he is the only one who can fight now, Chongyu is very worried that his strength is not enough.
He can only hide and fight at the same time, exhausting the opponent to death;
Well, it depends on whether the teleportation scroll Yi Sheng gave before is enough.
Although it has always been said that whoever has the biggest fist in the Demon Realm is the master, but in the power struggle, there are always a few thorns.
After Yuan Wuxin became the current demon venerable, many former demon venerables and old aristocrats always looked down upon Yuan Wuxin.
