The Story Never Ends

"For the Lord!"

The devils received a huge boost in morale and charged at the city with hunger written all over their faces. Since the walls had been broken down by Davion, the guards lost their home advantage.

Not only that but most of them were injured. This included Kingsley and the other devil kings. That\'s why Averi and her gang dared to fight Kingsley and his party head-on confidently.

"Clang!Clang"

In a couple of exchanges, Kingsley was put in a difficult spot as Averi left deep gashes in his devil body, giving him no chance to strike back.

"How long are you going to hold on?" She scoffed, and her body became ethereal in an instant along with the sword in her hand.

In this state, her body became thrice as fast and could pass through objects like a soul. Nonetheless, the shortcoming was that she had to appear physically if she wanted to attack.

"Damn! What a pain in the ass ability." Kingsley watched her moving through the rubles and suddenly disappearing from the spot.

"I can\'t stay here. Who knows where she would come from?" Making up his mind, he flew to the sky.

But before he could react, he was smashed down to the ground by someone who he couldn\'t even see. Next, he felt something sharp piercing his chest, making him throw out a mouthful of blood.

"You…" Looking at Averi, who manifested from the ground, made him rage with fury. Nevertheless, he couldn\'t speak a single word as a powerful ray of devil essence burst from the sword, destroying his body into smithereens.

Even his soul wasn\'t left behind. Only a dark blue devil core remained which was picked up by her. Putting it in her spirit ring she mumbled, "Is it Bjorn who made the move, or is it the lord?"

After all, only a Devil Emperor could remain undetected from her divine sense.

While she was pondering, many shrieks were heard in the air. And when she looked over, she noticed other devil kings too have fallen in a similar manner like Kingsley.

"Bjorn?" She called out as she gradually noticed a big shadow moving in the air, continuously knocking out the devil kings like flies.

"What! How can there be another Devil Emperor?" The guards at the devil commander stages who were paying attention to their kings were crestfallen. Although they were already dismayed right from the start, this blow was too heavy for them.

They even lost the will to fight. Previously they had some hope seeing how the opponent Devil Emperor stayed his hand with some conscience. They believed that they could hold on until their emperor came. But now, it is all going to be over.

Taking this opportunity, their enemies went hard on them, crushing them swiftly and devouring them on the spot. Yes, their internal organs were eaten, and their bones were munched as if they were having a good meal.

Rivers of blue-colored blood spilled and the roads were dyed, causing Siena to have nausea. As someone living in the peaceful Phoenix Island, she had never witnessed such gruesome scenes.

Davion too felt uncomfortable. Despite witnessing many wars in the Inner Regions and being somewhat a devil himself, this sight was extremely cruel and disgusting.

"That\'s why I told you to stay inside my small world. The Devil World doesn\'t have anything good." He sighed, returning to his seat after withdrawing his aura.

"Yeah. I feel that too. But it\'s boring to stay there." She shook her head.

"Isn\'t it better if you cultivate hard? Maybe you can catch up to your sisters and defeat them in the incoming ceremony. Don\'t you want to become an empress?" He couldn\'t help but ask.

"Who doesn\'t want to become one? It\'s just that I hate the later part of the ceremony." She spoke in disdain.

"Eh! Does it mean that you are trying to ditch the whole ceremony? Won\'t it create troubles for you later on? Who knows they might even kick you out of the clan?" He questioned, remembering a random plot from the novels he used to read in his previous life.

"I don\'t think that they would go that far." How could her mother be that heartless? It was completely impossible.

"Regardless, you should be focusing on improving your cultivation. At least after returning, you must beat up your sister and reclaim the empress position by force." He encouraged her, imagining that wonderful scenery in his head.

"It\'s not that easy. But why do you look so excited? Tell me what you are thinking." Listening to his ambitious suggestions, she was bewildered. What the hell was he planning? With how cunning he was, he must definitely have something in his mind.

"Hehe! I want you to participate in the ceremony with me." He gave a wild smile, giving her goosebumps.

"Don\'t tell me…" The expression under her veil changed as she guessed what he was planning.

"Yeah. It\'s as you think. You will choose me as your partner during the ceremony. But it will be only an act as later I will escape to the Devil World after helping you." He explained as he continued.

"As a part of the deal, I want lots of fairy pills. If you can\'t provide them, then higher grade spirit veins would also be good. I believe it is a win-win situation for both of us."

"This…" She mulled over this matter as it seemed to make sense. In this way, she won\'t be falling out with her clan, and everything would come to place.

Even though there would be problems coming thereafter, it wasn\'t a big deal. She could simply brush it off, saying that he is cultivating in seclusion. Or creating some other feasible lies.

"You don\'t have to make a decision so soon. Just think about it. By the way, can you be sure that you fulfill my requests?" After reaching level 40, the amount of experience to level up every time was extremely huge.

Who knew how much it would take to reach the Venerable Stage or level 50? This was why he was working hard right now. He was gathering every ounce of resource he could with his current strength.

First, he would keep on expanding his territory and keep on devouring the devil veins as he did with the ones given by Bjorn and his gang. However, even after consuming all that he only filled half of his experience bar.

This indicated that these veins were all lower-grade devil mines. They didn\'t have much use for him. He needed veins at the level of spirit veins he uprooted from the Wolf Tribe in the Demon World.

And sensing the concentration of devil essence in this city made him sure that this place possessed the vein he was looking for. So, he had to conquer such similar cities one by one.

But it won\'t be as easy as it sounds from now on. The surrounding forces would get alerted and wary of his strength. Maybe they would even join hands and come after him. If such a thing happened, his plan of collecting resources would certainly get delayed.

Plus, there was the headquarters of the mighty Heavenly Demon Sect hiding everywhere. Thus, there was a high possibility of them intervening in his conquest. Who knew if they would secretly send a Venerable Expert to deal with him?

Having these thoughts, he decided to collect resources from Siena as well. If it still wasn\'t enough, he would even join one of the four major sects in the Human World as soon as possible. He would carry out all his ambitions at the same time.

If there was someone else listening to his plans, then they would have thought that he had gone insane. But for Davion who had law runes branded on his body that allowed him to travel through worlds, nothing was impossible.

"Humph! Don\'t underestimate me. My wealth is not something you can imagine." She blurted out angrily.

"Then I can rest assured." He replied and let go of this matter.

Next, he fully focused on the war and declared in a loud voice, "Proceed forward and raze the city to the ground."

"Hehe, if this won\'t force you out, then I have no other choice than to destroy your building." He intently gazed at the central building.

"No.."

"Please let us live."

"We surrender."

"If you want to kill us then you can do so."

"But please leave the city unscathed."

Hearing this, the surviving guards became pale with fright. This was because many of them had begun to start their families and were settled here. Hence, they all threw away their weapons and kowtowed towards his direction, asking for mercy.

Davion closed his eyes and thought for a while before commanding, "Then carry your weapons and lead the way straight to your emperor."

"Thank you for your grace." Despite knowing that they were going to be angering their emperor with this decision, they made up their minds.. Besides, they also knew that the Lord was sending them first as cannon fodders to test the waters.
