Rebirth of a Thousand Years: Entering the New Demonic World
Chapter 57: Saint Catherine City
When the encrypted call between Ying Li and Yashanlan ended, the entire sky became dark, with thunder and lightning, and howling winds.
The ground began to tremble, and everyone in the auction hall felt unprecedented fear and helplessness, as if the end of the world was approaching.
All kinds of huge, deformed and horrific creatures rushed out from the sudden cracks in the void. They were of different sizes and shapes, covered with scales, tentacles, and tumors. The demonic energy emanating from their bodies intertwined with each other, forming a strange ocean of mixed colors.
"They are our compatriots: the Yara Zerg. You should seek refuge with them." Ying Li said to the slaves around him.
Zekira walked out of the central gate and bowed to Yingli.
Ying Li: "What's the situation over there?"
Zekira showed a proud look on his face: "Don't worry, my lord. Her Majesty is an ancient demon who holds the power of the laws of space. Although they have surrounded the underground palace, they will never be able to find a refuge because of the different planes."
"Ah."
Ying Li thought for a moment. The day before yesterday, the Sea Demon King Mo Xiang also sent a message that the Sea Demon Clan and the Sea Dragon Clan had already fully understood the waters of the Western Continent, and had found out the locations of the headquarters and troop deployments of the rebellious sects such as the Iron Blood Alliance and the Temple of the Gods, and were ready to launch an attack at any time.
In the end, when the Yara Zerg left, the entire auction fell into silence.
Although no innocent civilians were harmed, all facilities were destroyed beyond recognition, and the place was in a mess inside and out. All the goods were pocketed by Yingli Huo Zekira, and no one had time to check out and pick up the goods, let alone ask for money from these ferocious monsters.
Today's scene was unforgettable for everyone and also alarmed the top leaders of the empire.
Martin was murdered, a fire broke out in the Luoximu Arena, unknown Zerg creatures descended from the sky, and all the merchandise at the auction was lost.
A series of shocking news spread throughout major cities and reached the ears of various forces. Ying Li's name became a symbol of spreading fear and bringing disaster.
Seven Deadly Sins Headquarters——
Han Jin's phone rang, and she picked up the call: "Hi, Father, how are you?"
On the other end of the phone, Crablan's voice was still so calm and confident. He asked:
"Do you know what happened to Huiyuan?"
Han Jin: "Of course. Jealousy reported it to me. According to the imperial law, I should arrest Ying Li immediately, but before that, I want to use him to destroy the Iron Blood Alliance and strike a blow to the arrogance of the Holy Land."
"Hahaha~ As expected of my daughter, you have a far-sighted vision."
After hanging up the phone, Crablan looked west, in the direction of Huiyuan, and sighed softly, muttering to himself:
"Ying Li... Well, it seems that my guess is correct. That man is back. But how should I... the Eternal Night Empire face him... and the demons?"
……
One month later, off the coast of the Western Continent, Zara Island—
A void rift opened, and Shadow Li and Galantina emerged from a world full of tentacles and eyeballs.
"Welcome to the Demon Lord."
Led by the Sea Demon King Mo Xiang, the Canaan Vinsman, the Phantom Demon King Shen, the residual soul of the Fire Demon King Yangang, and the sly ghost slave Liang Hua Piao, followed closely by a group of ghost soldiers and demon generals, they were here to welcome their master.
"No gift."
Ying Li glanced around and nodded with satisfaction. His subordinates had made progress in different fields in recent days.
The first thing he saw was Yan Gang’s soul body becoming more solid. It seemed that he had gained some opportunities in the Ghost Alliance during these days.
Nurarihyon also broke through to the peak of the sixth level of the Demon King Realm, giving people an even more unreal feeling.
Next to him stood a melancholy man with short black hair, pale skin, sinister eyes, and a layer of vague haze floating around him, making him even more illusory and mysterious than Nurarihyon.
He is the Phantom Demon King - Mirage. He returned to the world not long after Ying Li left. He met Mo Xiang, who was gathering troops from all over the place, and helped Nurarihyon, whose magic skills were similar to his, to complete a breakthrough.
This was the first time that Shen met the reborn Ying Li. His gloomy eyes flashed with a hint of light, and his black lips opened to utter an old and hoarse voice:
"Shen, I pay my respects to Your Majesty. Not long ago, I was in seclusion and broke through to the seventh level of the Ghost King Realm. I was unable to see you the first time. Please punish me."
Don't be fooled by Shen's young appearance, he is actually a demon even older than Ying Li. The rarity of his phantom demons is on par with that of the purple flower demons.
Ying Li shook his head: "It doesn't matter. Besides... I'm not the Demon Lord now. I still have to thank you for your willingness to continue fighting for the demons."
Including Mo Xiang, there have been some changes. Her belly is slightly bulging, indicating that the child of the demon clan and the dragon clan is about to be born.
Ying Li shared his experiences in Huiyuan and Sandros Island with the demons, and several demon kings also reported on the recent situation.
The Holy Land seemed to have discovered the signs of the rise of the demons and began large-scale movement. Although Banyue was not here, there were still three huge forces in the Holy Land: the Temple of the Gods, the Qingtian Sect, and the Holy Light Church.
Especially the Holy Light Church, which has been on the road of fighting against demons since the end of the Demon Empire. It is no coincidence that they have continued to this day. The depth of their foundation is unimaginable.
At the same time, if we act rashly, we will most likely have to face the military forces of the seven human nations that are all related.
After all, anti-demon propaganda has long been deeply rooted in the minds of the human kingdom. Rather than believing that Ying Li is an avenger, they would rather believe that Ying Li is an invader.
"Although the enemy is strong, I have already sacrificed my life and will be ready to accept orders from you at any time!" Shen was the first to express his determination to fight to the death.
Wensman glanced at Mo Xiang's round belly, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes: "Or... wait..."
Mo Xiang interrupted him: "I'm just pregnant, it doesn't mean I can't fight."
"We do need to be well prepared for this battle. After all, we are no longer what we used to be." Yan Gang sighed.
Ying Li thought about it, then looked at Galantina who was winking at him, and a smile flashed across his face.
He remembered that when he first met Galantina, whenever he encountered some problems worth pondering, she would always give him some fantastic ideas.
Now she has become a naive, heartless and silly girl. Taking care of her is like taking care of a silly daughter.
"What's up? Honey~"
Galantina had learned some new words from somewhere and acted like a mature person.
The three demon kings were even more stunned. Is this still A Jiao's daughter? Why has she become less smart?
Shen suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, we haven't reported the situation of Jiao Demon King yet."
Ying Li and Galantina's hearts trembled at the same time. Is there any news about the Dragon Demon King/mother?
Shen and Mo Xiang looked at each other, and in the end it was Shen who had experienced it personally who spoke:
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I...I failed to protect the territory of the Jiao Demon King. When I went there, the sea had already been swept by the Iron Blood Alliance and the Holy Light Church. There wasn't a single demon corpse left. Not only did they kill my compatriots, they also destroyed the bodies!"
Galantina slammed the table and asked excitedly, "What about my mother?!"
Shen shook his head: "I'm not sure. With her strength, she should have a chance to escape. I carefully checked the wreckage of the underwater palace where she was, and didn't find any trace of her."
"What... Damn it, damn it... Sanctuary... You deserve to die!" Galantina cursed with gritted teeth, her fists clenched involuntarily.
Ying Li thought of something else. It seemed that Galantina was the illegitimate daughter of Crablan in this life. Did she know the whereabouts of the Jiao Demon King?
According to Shen, he contacted Mo Xiang immediately after he came out of seclusion.
The whereabouts of Ah Jiao was found by Shen before he went into seclusion ten years ago. The entire snake demon tribe was hiding in a trench in the far sea of the northern continent. At that time, her power was greatly reduced, and there were very few survivors in the tribe, so she could not show any fighting power at all.
Facing a large-scale raid, they were likely to be in great danger. At this point, Ah Jiao lost contact again, and his life or death was uncertain.
"How about this! You guys start with a small-scale invasion, and we'll boil the frog in warm water, gradually nibbling away at their outer forces. Try not to alert too many people. I'll go ask Crablanc about it, and when I come back in a month, we'll launch a full-scale attack."
Ying Li has already made up his mind. He wants to solve the problem quickly without delaying either side. He cannot miss such a good opportunity, but he also has to ensure the safety of his future mother-in-law.
In the end, Ying Li and Galantina stepped into the portal they came from again, and this time their destination was the capital of the Eternal Night Empire: Saint Catherine City.
He will meet directly with the Emperor of the Empire, Crablan, and then the whereabouts of Ajiao and Galantina's complicated life experience will be revealed.
Before returning to Huiyuan, Jack had already prepared a special plane for Yingli, and she joined the team, and they flew to the heart of the empire.
Royal Palace——
"Really? That guy suddenly stopped fighting and wanted to come here first?"
Han Jin sat on the throne in the palace, painting her nails and casually taking care of trivial matters. When Ying Li was mentioned, she became interested.
"Yes, Jealousy's private plane has already left Huiyuan."
Under the throne, the young swordsman knelt on one knee, clasped his hands together, and answered respectfully.
Compared to the others, this person is less like a real human. Although he has a human appearance, he gives people an ethereal feeling, and he is also a sword spirit.
"What is this guy doing? Forget it... How are the preparations for the "ceremony" going?" Han Jin changed the subject and started the next topic.
"My Lord, the generals you invited and the Seven Deadly Sins are fully prepared, and the guests will definitely feel at home." The sword spirit replied.
"Very good, Kongmingjian. You are really efficient. Please leave. I need to take a rest."
"Yes."
The spirit of the Kongming Sword dissipated, and a ray of colorful light flowed into an exquisite ancient sword. The seven gems engraved on it flashed at the same time.
Han Jin waved her jade hand, and the Kongming Sword floating beside her suddenly shrank, forming a flying star that flew into her forehead.
Then she stretched and naturally dropped the white robe on her shoulders onto the throne. Various luxurious accessories also made a sound of silver bells in the air before falling to the ground.
She lifted her snow-white hair from her forehead, looked towards the west with a confident look and smiled calmly:
"Ying Li, I have set up the banquet and am waiting for you to take your seat~"
The plane landed before the sun set and finally arrived at Saint Catherine City. Ying Li looked at the surrounding city scenery and was so surprised that his mouth couldn't close. This was a style he had never seen before.
This is a very ultra-modern city. Compared with Intoxicated Valley, Soul Palace, and Gray Plain, the buildings here are taller, the style is more fashionable, and the city functions are also very complete. It is like walking into a city in a science fiction movie.
Saint Catherine is located in the southwest of the center of the empire, with mountains in the north, forests in the south, hills in the west, and plains in the east connected to the Tianjiang River, the largest and mother river in the empire. It has a beautiful environment, a humid and cold climate, and short days and long nights.
It is just getting dark now and the streets are gradually becoming bustling and noisy. Many shops and office buildings have just opened and are not yet at their busiest time.
Bing He laughed, it was time for him to show off himself again:
"Ahem! Is this your first time visiting the "Arctic City That Never Sleeps" Saint-Catherine? Please follow this guide's steps and enjoy the night view of the metropolis step by step!"
