King of Creation Chapter 2036 - 2021: Coward?

After days of fierce fighting, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, had gathered a large group of the Demon Clan around him.

A rough glance showed that there were as many as eleven Demon Clan members in the Dao Realm.

If Ye Zhen could look carefully, he would find that the defeated ones under his command from previous days, such as Yii Tuo, Yii Dong, Yii Sang, and the two Iron-armored Demon Dao Realm who escaped from Ye Zhen’s hands are all serving under the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun.

Besides them, the number of legions under the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun, after assembling various clans, has reached a staggering count of over twenty thousand.

However, at this moment, the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun was leading part of his army in a fierce battle against the Bone Demons.

This Bone Demon does not refer to the awakened White Bone Demon within the Ancient Demon God’s inheritance ground.

Rather, it is one of the powerful races within the Demon Clan—the Bone Demon Clan.

Bone Demons, as their name suggests, resemble skeleton frameworks, but their combat power is incredibly fierce.

Among the Demon Clan, the Bone Demons are considered one of the most troublesome clans.

With no flesh and blood, they only refine bones.

Their entire skeleton is their most powerful weapon and armor.

Especially those Bone Demons who have achieved the Dao Realm, as they have no flesh or blood, you could break their bones, but with a gesture, they restore themselves easily.

To kill such Bone Demons, there are only two ways: one is to shatter all their bones, the other is to directly destroy their Primordial Spirit.

Otherwise, these Bone Demons are like immortal monsters.

Aside from their incredibly strong physical bodies, these Bone Demons also master all sorts of curses and corpse poisons, making them extremely troublesome. Ghost Fire is likewise one of the most vicious flames in this world.

Once they form a legion, they become even harder to deal with.

These Bone Demons can freely possess and take over each other’s bodies within their clan.

On the battlefield, when you’ve finally smashed a Bone Demon’s skeleton, if there’s a fellow clan member’s corpse nearby, a flash of Ghost Fire allows them to possess a new body, with their combat power completely unaffected.

Currently, the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun was locked in fierce combat with a group of Bone Demons, finding the battle somewhat tough.

Especially in the Ancient Demon God’s inheritance ground, there are countless powerful bones. The Bone Demon Legion brought by the four Bone Demon Demon Lords initially only numbered fifteen thousand.

But the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun encountered a Bone Demon Legion exceeding one hundred thousand.

Here, those Bone Demons seemed to have returned to their home ground, with their numbers growing as the fighting intensified.

Especially those four Bone Demon Demon Lords, after entering this Ancient Demon God’s inherited Secret Realm, used secret techniques to continually strengthen themselves with the abundant bones here.

Allowing their physical bodies to reach a terrifying level of strength.

Particularly the leading Bone Demon Bai Fan at the Peak of Early Dao Realm, whose bones appeared white and lustrous like jade, with a faint sense of translucence.

Among the Bone Demons, generally only those who have reached the Mid Dao Realm have bones with a jade-like translucence.

However, the Bone Demon Demon Lord Bai Fan, only at the Peak of Early Dao Realm, his physical body had already reached the Mid Dao Realm level.

It could be said that these Bone Demons have already gained enormous benefits from this Ancient Demon God’s inheritance, even before obtaining it.

Furthermore, looking at the Inherited Blood Banner on top of the Bone Demon Demon Lord Bai Fan, its aura has obviously grown, clearly having swallowed several Inherited Blood Banners.

"Have the Iron-armored Demon Army push forward, while the Heavenly Wings Army seeks opportunities to charge!" Watching the relentless tide-like Bone Demon Legion, the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun’s face turned a bit sullen.

Especially troublesome was the fact that the dead Bone Demons could rise up again from time to time, causing him quite a headache.

In other places, while Bone Demons are difficult to deal with, they would not be like this.

The main reason is that within the Ancient Demon God’s inheritance ground, countless bones are piled up, a veritable Holy Land favored by the Bone Demon Clan.

"Jii Hua, go, take your Three-eyed Demon Clan elites and snatch back that Inherited Blood Banner for me!" The Seventh Crown Prince Congyun’s gaze settled on Ye Zhen’s rapidly approaching Demon Soul Army.

The reason for ordering Jii Hua was well-considered.

Jii Hua’s father was one of the thirty-six Marching Grand Commanders of the Demon Clan.

Within the Demon Clan, even the lowest-ranked Marching Grand Commander commands a mixed legion of a million troops, holding significant power and influence internally.

Although Jii Hua’s father has many sons, and Jii Hua is not among those his father particularly values.

However, as the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun sees it, Jii Hua is a kind of label.

If Jii Hua follows his lead in the future, then Jii Hua’s father, one of the thirty-six Marching Grand Commanders, would more or less be associated with him.

In the future competition for the throne, as long as he demonstrates enough power and potential, Jii Hua’s father, this Grand Commander, would logically stand behind him.

This was the intention of the Seventh Crown Prince.

Ordering Jii Hua now carries that implication, giving Jii Hua a chance, while also drawing closer to him.

Of course, for the proud Seventh Crown Prince Congyun, giving such a direct order would be sufficient.

The Seventh Crown Prince Congyun’s plans were substantial, and his demeanor as an upper echelon was full, but Jii Hua was not quite effective.

While the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun issued the order, Jii Hua was staring intently at the distant sky where that Blood Flag was fluttering, dazed.

That gaze seemed like he wanted to burrow into the waving Blood Flag, completely missing the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun’s order.

This caused a trace of anger to flash across the face of the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun; being ignored in public was somewhat embarrassing.

"Jii Hua!"

The Seventh Crown Prince Congyun suddenly shouted, startling Jii Hua, whose eyes were fixed upon the War Soul Blood Flag.

The latter’s plump body swiftly turned, surprised and startled, responding, "Subordinate is here!"

"Go, under your command, lead your Three-eyed Clan’s elite forces, annihilate this Demon Soul Army, and bring back that Inherited Blood Banner." The Seventh Crown Prince Congyun looked displeased.

Initially thinking that this time his words were clear enough, but Jii Hua’s reaction once again caught the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun off guard.

Upon hearing the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun’s order, Jii Hua shook his head instinctively, like a drum.

This amounted to a refusal of the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun’s order.

After shaking his head, Jii Hua realized it was inappropriate, as outright rejection of military orders was improper.

"Your Highness, Seventh Prince, no, this..." Trying to explain himself after coming to his senses, Jii Hua saw the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun’s face had already darkened.

Almost simultaneously, Jii Dai, a Dao Realm Demon Lord among the elite direct relatives of the Three-eyed Demon Clan, laughed and stepped forward, saying, "Your Highness, Seventh Prince, since coward Jii Hua dares not, this subordinate is willing to bring back the Blood Banner for Your Highness."

Saying this, he looked at Jii Hua with extreme disdain.

Jii Dai and Jii Hua were old adversaries; Jii Dai’s father and Jii Hua’s father were also old adversaries.

In past generations, Jii Hua’s father had always outmatched Jii Dai’s father, but in Jii Hua’s generation, Jii Hua consistently got bullied by Jii Dai and was always under pressure.

Jii Hua was momentarily stunned, squeezing an odd smile on his chubby round face, "Brother Dai wants to go, then I wish you victory. But truth be told, I’m a coward, and the thousand family members I brought won’t join you in the fight."

"Coward!"

As the Seventh Crown Prince Congyun nodded, Jii Dai spat viciously, then waved his hand, leading the elite legion of six thousand Three-eyed Demon Clan into battle.

Only Jii Hua and his thousand elite family members stood quietly there.

Jii Hua seemed indifferent, but the thousand elite family members behind him all wore expressions of shame.

However, no one noticed the faint hint of ridicule in Jii Hua’s eyes.

To capture that Blood Banner?

It was basically a dream.

Because that unusual Blood Banner, Jii Hua was all too familiar with.

That person, who was so abnormal back then, to what extent has he become powerful now?

A slight anticipation flickered in Jii Hua’s eyes.
