The Rebirth of the Immortal Emperor: I am the Lord
Chapter 494: The demon army is approaching, Luo Feng surrenders!
Outside Luofeng City, after the city lord Luofeng announced his surrender, the demon general gave an order and the entire demon army stopped. However, this short period of peace did not make Luofeng and Li Zhen feel at ease. The demon general's sneer and the following words made them realize that the real test had just begun.
Seeing the extremely ferocious demon army stop when the demon general waved his hand, Luo Feng and Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. However, at this moment, the demon general smiled coldly, then his face became serious and he said loudly: "It's not impossible to let you go, but empty words are not enough. This demon general wants to see enough sincerity from you." His words revealed unquestionable majesty and tyranny, which made Luo Feng and Li Zhen's hearts tighten.
Luo Feng, as the lord of Luo Feng City, understood the meaning of the leading demon general's words. He knew that the demons invaded the human territory just for the benefit. He was prepared for this and immediately took out a storage ring from his arms and presented it with both hands. Although the ring looked ordinary, it contained the accumulation of Luo Feng City for many years. Even at the moment of offering the storage ring, Luo Feng's mouth kept twitching, revealing the heartache and reluctance in his heart.
However, after taking the storage ring and taking a look at it, the demon general did not show any surprise expression, but said lightly: "I will accept this thing, but it is not enough to expect my demon cavalry to let go of your Luofeng City with these things alone." His words were like a sharp sword, piercing Luo Feng and Li Zhen's hearts.
Hearing this, the face of the Lord of Luofeng City changed even more, and the fear in his heart surged like a tide. He knew very well that in the face of the greedy demons, any compromise could be a bottomless pit. But he also understood that at this moment they had no choice. After surrendering, the fate of himself and the city would be completely in the hands of the demons. Life and death, honor and disgrace, all depended on their thoughts. Now, the savings of the entire Luofeng City for many years were basically in that ring, but it was obvious that the demon general was not satisfied with the things inside.
At this moment, he just hoped that the demon army general's request would not be too excessive. Because in order to get a glimmer of hope in the hands of the demon army, he had already spent a lot of money, and except for the things in the ring, he had nothing else!
However, the situation was stronger than the person, so he had to bow his head. Luo Feng took a deep breath, forced down the fear and resentment in his heart, and said respectfully: "Sir, these things are all the treasures accumulated by my Luofeng City over the years. But please rest assured, if you need anything in the future, we will do our best to search for you, even at the cost of our lives." His words were full of humility and begging.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Lord Luofeng, right? I think you have misunderstood what I meant. Since you have already surrendered to my demon clan, you will naturally have to obey my orders and become my dog, unless you are pretending to surrender in order to fool me." As he spoke, an extremely powerful and cold aura rushed towards the two of them.
"Sir, we are definitely surrendering to you sincerely and have no ulterior motives. Please understand!" Hearing those words and feeling the demon general's brutal murderous intent, City Lord Luofeng and Commander Li Zhen felt as if they had fallen into an icy cave. Their faces turned pale and cold sweats poured down. They quickly knelt on the ground and made hasty assurances.
The demon general saw the two men and smiled a sinister and cruel smile. He then said calmly, "What I mean is that it is easy to prove your loyalty. You just need to hand over the murderer who killed my demon soldiers yesterday, kill 100,000 humans in front of you and offer 30,000 beauties as a token of your loyalty. Then I will believe that you are sincere in surrendering. Otherwise, everyone in Luofeng City will die."
The words of the demon general were like thunderbolts, exploding in the hearts of City Lord Luofeng and Commander Li Zhen, as well as the officials behind them, the soldiers on the city wall, and the people in the city. A chill instantly jumped from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads... Especially City Lord Luofeng and Commander Li Zhen, they looked at the demon general with fear and helplessness, and cold sweat flowed down their foreheads uncontrollably, just like weak prey targeted by wild beasts, and they would be wiped out if they were not careful.
The face of the City Lord Luofeng was as pale as paper, his lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he could not make any sound. His mind was in chaos, and only the cruel and cold words of the demon general kept echoing.
Commander Li Zhen also had a pale face, his body trembling like a leaf in the autumn wind, and he could barely stand. His eyes were filled with fear, fear of life, fear of the unknown and the future, and even more fear of betraying his beliefs.
After a long while, the Lord of Luofeng City regained some consciousness and said tremblingly: "My Lord, my Lord! Please understand! The demon soldiers were not killed by the people of Luofeng City, but by someone else. Please take back your order and let Luofeng City go!"
"Oh!"
"Luo Feng, you said that the people who killed my demon soldiers were not from your Luo Feng City. Then I will ask you, how could my demon soldiers be killed here? If it weren't for your Luo Feng City sending out a powerful force, who else around here would have such ability..." The demon general's voice was cold and hard, like the wind blowing from the ten thousand year old ice, making people shiver involuntarily. He glanced at the pale Luo Feng City Lord, his eyes full of disdain and suspicion.
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Luofeng City hurriedly explained, "Sir, I swear that my Luofeng City has absolutely no intention of being an enemy of the demons. Those demon soldiers were killed here, and I am also extremely sad. But it was indeed not my Luofeng City that did it, but the remnants of the Great Wilderness City. I saw this with my own eyes, so please be clear about it, Lord Demon General."
"The remnants of the Great Wasteland City? City Lord Luofeng, are you serious?" The demon general narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze was like two cold rays shooting directly at City Lord Luofeng, trying to see through his true thoughts deep in his heart. The atmosphere around them suddenly became tense, as if even the air had frozen.
City Lord Luofeng took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. He nodded solemnly and said, "It is absolutely true, sir. I saw it with my own eyes and I dare not hide anything."
Hearing this, the demon general snorted coldly. "Humph! So, you know a lot about the murder of my demon soldiers?"
"I dare not, sir."
But yesterday afternoon, when I was patrolling on the tower, I suddenly saw a group of remnants of the Great Wilderness chasing the demon soldiers here. They were at least two thousand people, and they were very powerful. Especially the leader, whose strength was even more unfathomable to me. After killing the demon soldiers, they headed north. According to the information we have obtained, they are now stationed in a mountain forest five hundred miles away. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to investigate.
"Humph, I won't easily believe your words." The demon general sneered, "I will send people to investigate this matter. If you really have nothing to do with it, I will reduce your punishment. But if I find out that you are lying, I will bury your entire Luofeng City with you."
Upon hearing this, Lord Luofeng was delighted and said hurriedly, "Thank you for your keen insight, sir. I promise that every word I say is true and there is absolutely no falsehood!"
"Humph!"
When the demon general heard what Lord Luofeng said, he snorted coldly, his eyes were like two sharp demon swords, piercing Lord Luofeng's heart. After a while, he slowly withdrew his gaze, pondered for a moment, and then looked at the distant sky, which was covered with dark clouds, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.
"General Zuo." The demon general suddenly shouted, his voice cold and majestic.
"I am here!" General Zuo quickly stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and waited for the next order from the Demon General.
"You lead a team of elite soldiers and immediately go five hundred miles away to search for the remnants of the Great Wilderness City. Remember, once you find their whereabouts, report it immediately, without any mistakes!" The demon general's voice revealed an unquestionable determination.
"Yes! I obey your command!" General Zuo accepted the order, saluted respectfully, then turned and left, quickly gathering people to prepare for departure.
The demon general looked at General Zuo's departing back, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes. He knew that this operation was not only to capture Luofeng City, but also to find out the details of the remnants of Dahuang City and prepare for the next operation.
As the vanguard of the demon invasion, the demon general knew that although the remnants of the Great Wasteland City were not very strong and did not pose a great threat, they had been lurking in the dark, floating unsteadily, and occasionally coming out to attack, causing them a lot of trouble.
However, the demon general also knew that the remnants of the Great Wasteland City were also a bunch of defeated soldiers, chickens and pottery dogs, and their strength was not strong. Could such a group of scattered soldiers really have the ability to kill their soldiers?
