Chapter 2070: Fifty Demon Gods
"Who are you!"
The chief of Beiji tribe frowned, and his palm unconsciously tightened the sword at his waist.
Hearing this, Bai Chen smiled faintly: "I am Bai Chen, from Beichen. I came here to save my companions."
"Are you from outside?"
"Yes."
"This...?"
Everyone was a little panicked.
People from outside dared to come here?
Different eyes looked at him. Facing the curious scrutiny of everyone, Bai Chen crossed his arms and was calm and composed. His slightly thin figure seemed to be taller in an instant.
It is impossible for ordinary people to come here. After all, there are many monsters with extraordinary strength in the fault crust connecting this space with the black swamp.
"I am Nie Qing, the chief of the Beiji tribe. Young Master Bai, please let me have a word."
Nie Qing waved his hand to make a gesture of invitation, and the crowd in front also made way for him.
…
Coming to a rather quiet room in the main hall, Nie Qing sent someone to bring a pot of hot tea. After the servants left, only he and Bai Chen were left in the room.
Sniffing the slowly rising tea fragrance, Bai Chen couldn't help but be curious: "There is tea in this place?"
"To be honest, I am the 50th Demon God of Xumi Temple. Because I have a certain status in Xumi Temple, it is not difficult to get these things."
Hearing this, Bai Chen became even more curious: "Just now I wanted to ask, what does the 50th Demon God mean?"
Hearing this, Nie Qing took a sip of hot tea, and then said in a deep voice: "This is the territory of Xumi Temple. They do not belong to our Xinglan Continent. They are a group of real monsters, even more dangerous than Xingchen Pavilion. Among the monsters of Xumi Temple, there are 49 extremely powerful beings. They are called 49 Demon Gods until I joined them 60,000 years ago and became the 50th Demon God."
"Not from Xinglan Continent?"
Bai Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. Could it be that these people really came from Xumi Holy Realm?
But why are the monsters in the Tower of Babel different from the monsters here...
No matter the appearance or the state of spiritual power, they are different.
"I am just guessing about this matter, because since I joined the Xumi Temple, they like to call people outside mortals. Even now, many people in the temple call me a mortal. If it weren't for the Sixth Demon Emperor's fetish of liking women, our Beiji clan would never have survived until now."
"Demon Emperor?"
"Oh, I almost forgot to say that among the fifty demon gods, the first eight are extremely powerful, so they call me Demon Emperor. The power of these eight people is so terrifying that you can't imagine it at all."
"So, the sacrifice you just mentioned is actually giving the unmarried women of the Beiji clan to the Sixth Demon Emperor, right?"
I didn't expect Bai Chen to be so wise. Nie Qing nodded angrily.
"Every year, the women of our Beiji clan who have reached adulthood are sent to the Sixth Demon Emperor for his enjoyment. This year happens to be the year my sister reaches adulthood. In order to prevent her from being harmed by that monster, the only way for me, as her brother, to protect her is to marry her off. The Sixth Demon Emperor has a habit of not accepting any woman who is not pure."
Nie Qing said this with a face full of grief and indignation.
Obviously, he was very angry.
But at the same time, facing the powerful strength of the Sixth Demon Emperor, he had no choice but to endure the humiliation.
The women of the Beiji clan became the victims of the attempt to survive.
"What a beast." Bai Chen smiled and narrowed his eyes, and suddenly looked at Nie Qing seriously: "Brother Nie, I wonder if you have heard of the name Lin Mengyao."
"Lin Mengyao?!"
As soon as these words came out, Nie Qing was immediately filled with horror.
Seeing his reaction, Bai Chen couldn't help but get excited and asked anxiously: "Is she here?"
"I... I haven't seen that girl in person, but there is indeed a mortal named Lin Mengyao in the Xumi Temple. Why this person can stay in the sacred temple has always been a mystery. Many people in the temple are dissatisfied with this, but they can't do anything about it."
Mengyao!
Bai Chen stood up excitedly.
Mengyao is here!
In this case, no matter how strong these fifty demon gods or the first eight demon emperors are, he will rush up without hesitation.
Mengyao must be rescued!
This is the most firm belief in Bai Chen's heart.
"You came here just for this Lin Mengyao?" Nie Qing raised his eyes curiously.
Hearing this, Bai Chen smiled and nodded.
Seeing this, Nie Qing half opened his mouth and couldn't help but admire: "Dare to go to hell for a beauty, you are a real man!"
Real man?
No.
This title is far from enough...
Bai Chen's mouth curled up, and suddenly he thought of an idea: "By the way, didn't you say that tomorrow is the day of sacrifice?"
"Yes. Wait! You don't want to...?"
Nie Qing looked at Bai Chen in shock: "You can't imagine how powerful the Xumi Temple is. I think you are going to die."
"If I really die here, it will probably be an unprecedented disaster for them." Bai Chen smiled and gulped down a pot of hot tea, then looked at Nie Qing who was confused: "Don't you Beiji want to escape from here? Tomorrow's sacrifice, I will put on a woman's wedding dress and go to the Xumi Temple. When I make a noise at the temple, I will send you a signal with the sound transmission spirit formation, and you can take this opportunity to break through and leave here."
"This...if we escape, what will you do? You'll definitely die if you're alone there!"
"Well, I just want to die there, and perish together with them~"
Bai Chen's last words instantly made three black lines float across Nie Qing's head.
He was speechless.
What the hell is dying together?
"Although we met by chance, Brother Bai is so righteous, and my Beiji clan owes you a favor. I hope you can successfully save your companions." Faced with this opportunity to save the entire clan, Nie Qing naturally would not be too chivalrous and tender. He decisively bowed to Bai Chen and clasped his fists to show his respect.
"It's just that each of us takes what we need. You can continue with the wedding banquet. Tomorrow, we will go our separate ways and see each other later."
"Okay, Brother Bai, rest here. I'll be back after I finish my work."
Nie Qing bowed to Bai Chen again, and then walked out of the room in a swift and decisive manner.
Sitting alone in a quiet little house, Bai Chen stood up and looked at the dark green wall with luminous beads shining on it. Looking at the familiar totem on the wall, he couldn't help but chuckle.
Meng Yao is really here.
As long as she is here, it's enough!
As for the strength of Xumi Temple, even if he hasn't seen it with his own eyes, he can imagine it.
This is a road of no return, a dead end where there is almost no hope of life.
But so what?
He is the evil emperor Bai Chen!
Fearless of everything!
