Chapter 1415: Chapter 92 If I Were a Demon (Additional update for Alliance Hierarch Lingchen Domineering Lord.)
Do I… regret it?
Jiang Wang asked himself.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a familiar tavern.
It was familiar because he had just left this place.
This was exactly the tavern in Zhongshan Country where he had been captured.
In front of him stood Zhao Xuenyang with a wooden sword in his arms, and behind him, crowded in the corner, were the tavern staff and diners.
He was facing the sudden crisis head-on while those people whispered among themselves.
“Damn it, a Demon Race spy is right here!”
“Don’t be afraid, Zhao Xuenyang is here. This scoundrel won’t get away today!”
“Watch how he dies!”
“Keep your voice down. This is a Demon spy, ruthless and cunning. If things go south, he might take you down with him!”
“How could anyone stoop so low as to serve the Demon Race? Truly despicable!”
…
The whispers floated clearly to Jiang Wang’s ears, thanks to his mastery of the Voice Broadcast Immortal Style. Every word, every ounce of hatred… distinctly audible.
At this mont, he was facing Zhao Xuenyang, feeling the pressure of impending death. At this mont, he was listening to these whispers, sensing the hostility of strangers directed at him.
As if trapped in a cramped, dark room, enduring the incessant buzzing of flies and mosquitoes.
Utter tornt!
No one knew what kind of willpower he was using to maintain his composure!
“They all believe you are a demon!” the voice in his heart whispered. “Then why not show them what a demon should do!”
What should a demon do?
Take these people hostage to force Zhao Xuenyang to expose a flaw, creating a chance for escape. Thus, he wouldn’t be taken to Jade Capital Mountain for judgnt as a Demon Race spy. Everything could still be salvaged!
Do I… regret it?
Jiang Wang asked himself again.
…
…
What should a demon… do?
“Jiang Wang? Jiang Wang?”
When Jiang Wang opened his eyes again, the face he saw was Dong Ah’s particularly stern and upright expression.
At this mont, there was a trace of concern in Dong Ah’s gaze: “What’s wrong? Are you unwell?”
This was Dong Ah’s private room at the Maple Forest City Daoist Academy.
The ti was… not long before Maple Forest City’s fall.
And he had just finished reporting the Bone Tao’s movents to Dong Ah. He suspected that the Bone Tao was about to make a big move in Maple Forest City, and he was still considered the Bone Path Child.
“Alright. You may leave.”
“I’ll take care of it.”
“I’ll personally communicate with Wei Quchibi.”
“Focus on your cultivation and take good care of your younger sister.”
“… Don’t bother again.”
He had risked being killed in one strike by Dong Ah to confess everything he knew, hoping to win a chance for the Maple Forest City Region. And this was Dong Ah’s response.
Of course, he now knew what would happen next.
“Nothing, nothing’s wrong,” Jiang Wang said reluctantly.
“You’ve worked hard during this period,” Dong Ah said casually. “Go back and get so rest.”
“Alright.” Jiang Wang stood up stiffly, bowed politely, and walked toward the door.
He tried to calm himself… but how could he feel at peace?
The person ditating behind him…
Was once the ntor he trusted wholeheartedly, and later beca the Vice Minister of Zhuang Country whom he killed with his own hands!
“Are you sure you’re alright?” Dong Ah’s voice rang out from behind.
“Just overly fatigued…” Jiang Wang paused. “Resting for the night should help.”
“Alright, you can go then. I’ll have soone send you two doses of sleeping pills later.”
“Thank you… Master Dong.”
Dong Ah’s voice spoke again from behind: “By the way, if they disclose anything else to you—anything ant for the future Saint Lord—report to imdiately.”
Jiang Wang slowly walked out of the small courtyard.
The winter sunlight outside felt particularly chilling to him.
“Understood,” he replied.
He walked alone through this Daoist Academy in Maple Forest City.
Occasionally, senior brothers and disciples passing by greeted him, and he nodded in response, one by one.
The flagstone path, the row of red maple trees… even the sky felt familiar.
It seed he had never left, yet it had already been a long ti since he departed.
Jiang Wang walked through this place he had lived for years, feeling a kind of lancholy that no one could understand at this mont.
He didn’t know why he had returned to this day. But he needed to figure out what he should do!
Go to Jade Capital Mountain or Jinguo to expose this matter?
Would there be enough ti?
Given his status as a re disciple of a small country’s Daoist Academy, with exceedingly weak cultivation.
Could he even reach the influential figures who held aningful decisions?
Would anyone believe him?
Could he even make it out of Zhuang Country alive?
The Bone Tao’s conspiracy had already begun, and the Zhuang imperial court’s sches had also comnced.
After reporting the matter about Maple Forest City to Dong Ah, hadn’t Dong Ah kept him under close watch?
He once trusted Dong Ah wholeheartedly, burying this matter deep within until that fateful day of calamity…
If he hadn’t trusted Dong Ah back then, and instead tried to alert the common people of the region and loudly proclaim the Bone Tao’s conspiracy, would he not have been erased?
Fierce Beasts, rogue cultivators, accidents during training… There were countless reasons that could bury an ordinary disciple of no significance.
What should I do? Jiang Wang asked himself.
In these monts of hesitation, he heard the voice in his heart again.
It was as if another self was interrogating his mind: “The world sees you as a demon. Do you know what the demon would do?”
What would a demon do?
A demon can be a race, but it can also be an extre, selfish outlook on life.
The fall of Maple Forest City was a disaster…
The fall of Maple Forest City was also an opportunity!
Because it represented the culmination of the Bone Tao’s long-term sches; it spawned a Bone True Dan!
Zhuang Gaoxian consud this dan, completely healed from old injuries, ascended to Dongzhen, and attained the status of a True Man of the Age.
If he could swallow this dan himself… what could stop his teoric rise?
In his past experience, it took him over two years with countless life-and-death battles, exhausting every effort, to barely achieve four Divine Skills within the Inner Mansion. And still, he was utterly powerless against Zhao Xuenyang.
This ti, if he could snatch the Bone True Dan from the jaws of danger and devour it… who could say God Arrives was out of reach?
Then, in the Tongtian Palace, the Dark Candle that silently observed all, and Zhuang Country Taizu Zhuang Chenggan who resided within it…
Could he find a way to exploit The Calamity of No Life and simultaneously outsmart Zhuang Chenggan and the Bone Demon God?
The Bone Demon God sought to seize everything from Zhuang Chenggan, while Zhuang Chenggan wanted to overturn and consu the demon god’s authority. With insight into both sides’ tactics, hidden cards, and responses, could there be a way for him to profit as the fisherman, claiming everything?
If he succeeded…
Then, by the Red Dog Day of the Year 3919 of the Dao Calendar, he could ascend to Dongzhen while mastering the Netherworld Divine Authority!
A re Zhao Xuenyang—what would he matter?
With the flip of a hand, he could annihilate him.
Who in the world would dare accuse him of Communicating with Demons?!
Even if he carried a Blood Puppet True Demon by his side, who would have the audacity to criticize him?
People would only praise his power, exalting him for refining a true demon as his puppet!
Li Yi was historically the youngest True Man of the Age.
He, however, could shatter that record, making it a reality at eighteen!
He would be the true number one Kui at the Yellow River Gathering, fully qualified to step into the Great Qi Military Affairs Hall!
What kind of life would that lead to?
Du Ruhui, at his rcy!
Zhuang Gaoxian, crushed with ease!
Hai Zongming would dare not covet the Red Mirror again! Granny Bizhu would not dare nurture her greedy thoughts! Ji Shaoqing would not dare provoke him anymore!
Even Gu Huaixin—kill him outright!
Who in this world would be beyond his reach to kill!
At eighteen, wielding Netherworld Divine Authority as a True Man of the Age, how quickly could he achieve Yan Dao?
Great Qi’s God of War, Jiang ngxiong, would he still care to protect his protégés so vehently?
The Diaohai Tower Master Wei Xun, would he dare maintain his arrogance?
The world sees as a demon…
When I beco the demon, the world shall never be the sa!
