Chapter 1402: A Brilliant Stratagem
Shocked.
Hearing that they had turned back and returned, Long Tian was so shocked he was speechless.
He originally thought his movement techniques were brilliant and that he could use this opportunity to shake them off. He never expected that the speed he was so proud of could not even compare to half of theirs.
These four seemingly foolish Star God Guards actually possessed such terrifying speed?
It was simply unbelievable.
With these four annoying pests tagging along, how could he possibly escape!
Even if his intellect was superior, Long Tian was at his wit's end, feeling as helpless as if he were stuck to a dog-skin plaster. It was truly like a scholar meeting a soldier where reason could not be explained.
There was nothing more frustrating in the world than this.
What was even more infuriating was that the four Star God Guards were still respectfully bowing.
Lord Star Master, please rest assured. No matter the ends of the earth or the countless dangers, we will swear to protect you with our lives!
The way they said it made it sound like he would never be able to get rid of them in this lifetime.
Long Tian was furious, his expression constantly shifting between dark and light.
After being completely crushed by their speed, hearing these so-called words of loyalty felt like listening to them show off their speed—it was a blow to the heart that left him unable to calm down for a long time.
His mouth twitched as he watched them quietly for a few breaths, and his long-suppressed temper flared up!
No matter the ends of the earth, right?
Swear to protect with your lives, right?
If you have the guts, follow me back to the Demon Race and see how you die!
As these furious thoughts surfaced in his mind, Long Tian suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Right...
Since he could not shake these people off, he might as well take them back with him. Firstly, he could get rid of these four pests, and secondly, he could use them as a greeting gift, using their deaths to clear up the previous misunderstandings.
In this way, he could explain everything clearly, and with the merit of gaining the trust of Cloud Star, not only could he return to the Demon Race, but his status would definitely far exceed what it was before. All his hard work would not be in vain.
This plan could be said to kill three birds with one stone. How exquisite!
After this sudden realization.
Long Tian formulated a plan in his heart, a faint smile appearing on his face as he hurriedly put on an appreciative posture.
Rare, truly rare.
Since you are all so loyal, then follow me to the Star Sea to look around.
As his words fell.
Long Tian immediately tore open the void and led the four of them inside.
After a long time.
The ripples in the void dispersed, and Long Tian walked out with anticipation in his eyes. Looking closely at the city enveloped in dense black fog in the distance, a trace of emotion appeared in his eyes.
He was back.
After experiencing many hardships, he finally returned to the familiar Demon Capital!
In these short few days, he had truly suffered a lot and had much of his edge ground away, making him feel as if a lifetime had passed.
At this moment.
Feeling the dark aura in the air, Long Tian's heart was filled with indescribable warmth and emotion. For a moment, he was filled with sighs and his thoughts drifted.
Until the Star God Guards behind him spoke out in surprise and doubt.
My Lord, where is this? Why does it feel so gloomy and ominous?
Look quickly, there seems to be a giant city in the black fog ahead!
Long Tian was also jolted awake. He immediately switched back to a solemn expression, pretending to look at the city in the distance with surprise and doubt, and then turned around sternly to speak.
There really seems to be a city in the black fog. In my view, this place is gloomy and weird, and there seems to be a hint of demonic aura. Perhaps there are demons gathered in the city.
Today, as we pass by this place, we must investigate. If there really are demons causing trouble, we will personally destroy the evil demons to prevent future disasters and blood staining the various stars!
His words were spoken with righteous indignation, and upon a rough listen, there was nothing strange about them.
The few of them solemnly responded and clasped their fists.
We will strictly follow My Lord's orders!
Seeing this, Long Tian could not help but laugh secretly in his heart.
They really are a bunch of brainless fools!
With just a few words, he had coaxed these people into throwing their lives away. This plan was unfolding even more smoothly than he had imagined.
He had not just led the way blindly; he had come prepared.
The gates of this Demon Capital were guarded by the Bull Demon clan. Because he had previously killed a few Bull Demons due to a misunderstanding, the Bull Demon clan would definitely hate him and humans deeply. Once they went near and issued a challenge, these few people would undoubtedly die!
He had a deep relationship with Niu Shadi. Even though he had killed members of the Bull Demon clan, that bull nose would not ruthlessly kill him. Instead, he would tie him up and take him back to meet Lord Demon Venerable.
In this way, he could avoid being hunted down by other demons, giving him the chance to explain everything, and he could also conveniently eliminate these few fools who were delivering their heads.
This plan was simply flawless!
What is the use of being able to fight? What is the big deal about being fast? They are all just little punks.
No matter when, having a good brain is the real truth!
Watching the Star God Guards walk towards the distant city gate, Long Tian could not help but secretly praise himself. At the same time, a ruthless look finally appeared in his eyes, and he prepared to loudly issue a challenge to deliberately disturb the Bull Demons!
You all...
Who knew that just as he opened his mouth, the Star God Guards who were walking forward would actually speak first!
What demonic creatures are hiding in the city? Why do you not quickly come out and accept your death?
Today, we have come under the orders of Lord Star Master, and it is the day of your death!
In front of Lord Long Tian, you ferocious evil demons can no longer have your past arrogance. We Star God Envoys will definitely destroy you all!
Petty demonic creatures, do you dare to come out of the city and fight?
...
The explosive shouts echoed around with desolate ancient power, their voices shaking the heavens and the earth, their battle intent boiling!
Long Tian was so startled by the shouting that his eyes went blank.
What the fuck?!
How did these four fools suddenly become so hot-blooded?
It was one thing for them to be hot-blooded, but why the hell were they shouting nonsense at a critical moment!
It was bad enough that these four idiots stole his lines and named names, but they also slapped the hat of Star Master on him. Was this not a frame-up?
It was simply outrageously absurd!
If he did not know that their intellect was limited, Long Tian would have suspected that these four people were intentionally causing trouble. Just go and die properly, what is the point of shouting random lines here!
Pig teammates!
Truly pig teammates!
He was both angry and shocked, and hurriedly went forward, preparing to explain.
Who knew.
Dark clouds pressed down from the sky, and the hundred-foot giant gate had already slowly opened!
Boom!
After a terrifying boom, dense and frightening footsteps could be heard.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Giant Bull Demon figures stepped out of the city gate one after another, the black ground shaking continuously beneath their feet. The leading Bull Demon in the front row had red eyes and black horns, holding a demonic divine weapon giant axe, with murderous aura dissipating around his body like bursts of black fog.
This demonic creature was none other than the current leader of the Bull Demon clan, Niu Shadi!
Seeing an old acquaintance appear.
Long Tian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his fists.
Niu...
Who knew that before he could finish speaking.
Niu Shadi was already holding the giant axe. He pointed it angrily from afar!
Hmph!
I wondered what kind of sacred beings you were, but to think it is actually a group of humans! Today, my Bull Demon clan will see for ourselves what kind of methods the legendary Cloud Star Master Long Tian has, to dare challenge our clan's prestige!
Puny humans, today this place will be your burial ground!
The string of curses was incredibly fluent, leaving Long Tian dumbfounded.
What the hell?
Was this still Niu Shadi?
Since when could this reckless brute speak such smooth, dramatic lines?
What was even weirder was...
When Niu Shadi saw him, it was as if he did not recognize him at all, constantly referring to him as the Star Master. Something was wrong here.
He had finally made it to the Demon Domain with great difficulty, only to be framed again and again.
If this continued, the misunderstandings of his fellow demons would only deepen, and it would not be easy to explain. If things went wrong, he could lose his life.
This would not do!
Long Tian became increasingly panicked, and without overthinking, he laid his cards on the table and cursed back.
Bastard!
"Niu Shadi, it's me, Long Tian! How can you falsely accuse a demon out of thin air! I came here this time..."
The self-exposing words were incredibly decisive.
Long Tian was also getting desperate.
If not forced by the circumstances, he would absolutely never have revealed everything in front of the Star God Guards. Forcibly disrupting the steps of the plan and exposing his identity as an undercover agent in front of living witnesses carried a massive risk.
But who would have known.
Niu Shadi seemed even more anxious than him. Before Long Tian could even finish speaking, he swung his giant axe and ordered the attack!
"Minions, slaughter all these humans for me!"
Hundreds of bull demons roared and stomped forward, their eyes filled with bloodthirsty madness!
"Kill!"
The roars echoed for hundreds of miles, enough to strike terror into anyone's heart!
The black earth trembled, and killing intent boiled.
As the massive horde of demons charged forward, a terrifying aura swept across the heavens and the earth, seemingly capable of swallowing all living beings. The Star God Guards also erupted with their own imposing auras, wielding their respective weapons and charging head-on!
In an instant.
The auras of both sides clashed, and the cries of battle shook the heavens and the earth!
In just a few exchanges, quite a few bull demons had already fallen. The formidable strength of the Star God Guards far exceeded expectations, and the situation seemed to be spiraling out of control, heading in a direction entirely outside the plan.
As bursts of blood mist exploded outside the city, Long Tian stood frozen in place, utterly dumbfounded...
