166 Careful Observation, Serious Thinking, Detailed Analysis

A look of bewilderment appeared on the Golden Roc demon king’s face.

It was not that long ago that he had sensed the aura of one of his incarnations dissipate. No matter how he reached out, he could not establish a connection with this particular incarnation.

In addition, before his incarnation disappeared, although no memories were transmitted over to the original body, traces of feelings like fear, anger and confusion were sent across.

Those were emotions that could not have developed under normal circumstances.

That was why the Golden Roc demon king was able to confirm that his incarnation had been killed. Furthermore, the attacker was extremely powerful. It was very likely that the attacker was one of the top 10 demon kings like him!

“So that’s what happened. No wonder you’re so angry, as if your mother died.” After hearing Ying Chengpeng’s brief explanation, the Green-eyed Thunder Ox came to a realization.

Ying Chengpeng: “…” Damn it, I should not have brought this guy along!

With a dark expression, Ying Chengpeng shouted coldly, “Humongous ox, if you don’t know how to speak nicely, then shut your mouth. If you can’t even shut your mouth, then you might as well just die!”

The Green-eyed Thunder Ox immediately felt unhappy. “Do you know how to speak nicely?!”

“Hmph.” Ying Chengpeng glanced at the Green-eyed Thunder Ox with a gloomy expression and walked forward carefully. His eyes darted around and he released his perception to carefully scan every corner of this grotto.

Before long, he found a clue from the ruins.

“Sure enough, a powerful enemy was here.” Ying Chengpeng transformed into his human form and waved his hand, sweeping away a large amount of gravel. Under the cover of the gravel, the ground was riddled with holes.

 

“This looks like something a human sword cultivator would do!”

The Green-eyed Thunder Ox followed behind him. When he saw this scene, he immediately shouted and his green eyes rolled around. “Ying Chengpeng, you really went behind my back and messed around in the human race’s part of the Godforsaken Land!”

“Get lost.”

This time, Ying Chengpeng’s response was even simpler.

His gaze was as sharp as a blade as it swept across every inch of the ground. In almost an instant, he analyzed everything extremely thoroughly. “Although it looks very similar, it’s not the sword cultivation of a human. These marks should have been caused by a demon beast.”

“No one knows the situation on the human race’s side better than me.”

Ying Chengpeng shook his head with a dark expression.

He had a secret alliance with the emperor of the human kingdom, so he knew the real situation on the human race’s side far better than other demon beasts and demon kings.

“Whether it’s my son Ying Huayu or my incarnation, it’s not something that a human divine being can deal with,” Ying Chengpeng said with a calm expression. “This time, it must be a powerful demon beast lord in action. It might even have been a demon king!”

The Green-eyed Thunder Ox nodded as if he understood what he heard. “Then you’re indeed more awesome.”

Ignoring the stupid ox which was full of vulgarities, Ying Chengpeng continued to advance within the ruins. His movements became faster and faster, and he continuously found various clues which allowed him to piece together the situation regarding the eruption of the battle.

“The attacker is extremely powerful. Moreover, like me, he has refined a part of his body into a divine weapon. One of the weapons looks like a knife, and the other one looks like a sword. When unleashed in full force, they possess terrifying power.”

The more Ying Chengpeng investigated the scene, the calmer his expression became. “Not only that, but the attacker’s physique is also quite shocking. His blood essence is like an ocean. It still hasn’t completely dissipated even up to today.”

“Other than that, although it feels calm, I can tell that the spiritual energy here has erupted previously. They tried to use this method to destroy the traces they left behind.”

“I have to say that the ambusher was indeed extremely careful. He probably hid his aura and waited until my incarnation let down its guard before launching a sudden strike. He didn’t give it any chance.”

“If he is dealing with another demon king, he might have succeeded. Unfortunately… it’s me that he encountered!”

The more he listened to Ying Chengpeng’s explanation, the more shocked the Green-eyed Thunder Ox became. “What the hell, what kind of cowhide did this big bird grow up eating? It’s so smart. Is it really not a human bird that has cultivated a spirit?”

He did not understand a single thing that Ying Chengpeng said.

However, there was one thing that the Green-eyed Thunder Ox had full confidence in.

—He did not discover any clues at the scene!

In comparison, Ying Chengpeng was able to discover so many traces and even deduce a portion of the truth from everything he found. Even though the demon beasts advocated strength above everything, they would also be shocked by this level of intelligence.

If it was a little demon that displayed a similar level of vision and wisdom, the Green-eyed Thunder Ox would definitely laugh at it. Wisdom? Wisdom is useless! Can it stop my hooves?!

However…

Ying Chengpeng was one of the top 10 demon kings!

Just that level of strength alone made him feel extremely afraid.

“This fellow, when I provoked him in the past, his display of anger is not an act he put on for a fool, or is it? Damn it, wait! In this way, aren’t I that fool…”

The Green-eyed Thunder Ox suddenly thought of a problem.

It was also at this moment that Ying Chengpeng suddenly waved his hand and swept away a part of the ruins. Finally, he picked up a piece of broken scale.

The Green-eyed Thunder Ox also looked over. The next moment, his pupils could not help but constrict.

That piece of scale was rather long and narrow, looking like a knife or a sword. It was incredibly sharp and resolute and could even slice through hair. There was also a faint aura of a king lingering on the small piece of scale.

“This… this type of scale is…”

“I see. It’s that fellow who wants to deal with me.”

Ying Chengpeng slowly closed his eyes and exerted force with his fingers. With a cracking sound, he crushed the piece of scale. After that, he said coldly, “Dragon scale… So it’s you, Sky Snake demon king!”

The next moment, he no longer wanted to stay in this grotto. Instead, he suddenly transformed into the true form of a demon beast. With a loud bang, he shattered the mountain rocks above and headed straight towards the southeast.

“Since you dare to provoke me, don’t blame me for being impolite…”

“Oh? The dragon scale I left behind has been crushed?”

North Gazing Cliff.

Feng Xia, who was sparring with Qing Lin and Mo Lianque, changed his expression slightly. He suddenly stopped his attacks and he smiled faintly as he looked towards the distant horizon.

Qing Lin and Mo Lianque seized this opportunity and sent a series of divine powers crashing down on Feng Xia’s body.

However, Feng Xia’s clothes only shook slightly and then a dark Mystical Wheel rose like a flawless mirror. The mirror flashed and all the divine powers were reflected back to where they came from.

“Ah—” Qing Lin let out a scream. Without thinking, she held her head with her hands and squatted down.

“Oh no! Sect Master Feng’s divine power has become stronger!”

Mo Lianque’s expression changed drastically. Seeing all the divine powers flying towards him, he finally imitated Qing Lin’s actions and also squatted down with his hands holding his head.

“Don’t imitate me.”

Qing Lin secretly caused him to trip.
