Mo Yu couldn't help but feel emotional as he watched the dozens of people leap down from the Demonic Beast.
The Mu Lan Empire truly was much stronger than the Jia Ma Empire; just the number of powerful individuals alone was far beyond what the Jia Ma Empire could compare to.
Not to mention the Dou Ling experts, these ten Dou Kings alone would probably require the entire strength of the Jia Ma Empire to barely gather, yet Mulan Valley and the Huang Family had dispatched ten Dou Kings in one fell swoop!
Just as Mo Yu was thinking this, a dull, thunderous roar from a Demonic Beast suddenly echoed in mid-air.
"Who is it! Trespassing on my Lizard Serpent King's territory!"
As the voice fell, a giant lizard serpent, six or seven meters long, covered in gray scales, with a pair of hideous blood-red Triangle Eyes, emerged from the depths of the nearby jungle.
This lizard serpent was not only massive in size, but its Aura was also much deeper. As it moved, an invisible pressure continuously emanated, not at all inferior to a Dou King expert!
Seeing this Demonic Beast, Mo Yu's expression immediately solidified, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's actually a fifth-tier Demonic Beast, a Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast. No wonder it can speak human language. This is going to be a good show."
At the same time, on the other side, when the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast noticed the Mulan Valley group, its blood-red Triangle Eyes immediately filled with shock.
It had sensed a patrol team suddenly losing their life Aura and had specifically come to investigate. It had originally thought it was a small thief trying to sneak into the King's territory, but it never expected so many powerful individuals to suddenly appear in the territory.
Its gaze cautiously swept over the old man in the Lion-robed attire, and the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast said in a deep voice, "Humans, this is the territory of my Lizard Snake Clan. Why have you gathered so many powerful individuals here? Are you trying to provoke a war?"
"Hmph, Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast, your Lizard Snake Clan captured my son, and you still want to play dumb?" Among the leading figures, the middle-aged man who bore some resemblance to the Little Beast King suddenly took a step forward, his gaze coldly fixed on the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast in the distance, his killing intent palpable.
As his voice fell, the many powerful individuals behind him also looked at the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast with hostility. Even though the latter was a fifth-tier Demonic Beast, facing such a large number of hostile gazes, it couldn't help but feel a deep pressure at this moment.
Furthermore, although the leading old man had kept his eyes tightly closed, his powerful Aura was even stronger than that of the Lizard Serpent King, the Black Lizard Demon Snake King.
"Nonsense! Who exactly are you? When did my Lizard Snake Clan ever capture your son? If you're looking for trouble, even if you have many powerful individuals, my Lizard Snake Clan is not to be trifled with!"
Hearing the middle-aged man's statement, the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast was stunned. As a high-ranking member of the Lizard Snake Clan, it had never known of the Lizard Snake Clan capturing humans.
So, it subconsciously thought that this was an excuse for the Human Race to deliberately cause trouble for their Lizard Snake Clan, especially since their Great King had recently obtained an extraordinary rare item, which might have attracted the covetousness of some powerful individuals in the Empire because of it.
"Hmph, several days ago, in broad daylight, your Lizard Snake Clan's Rock Serpent Giant Lizard Beast abducted my son. Is that false? Furthermore, according to the Mulan Valley's first Artifact Refiner, Elder Mu's Thousand Mile Trace calculation, my son is in your Lizard Snake Clan's territory. What do you have to say about that?" the middle-aged man said indignantly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Mo Yu, who was hiding to the side, immediately raised an eyebrow, then felt a hint of relief.
Fortunately, after capturing the Little Beast King, he didn't keep him by his side but knocked him out and hid him in the Lizard Snake Clan's territory. Otherwise, it would have truly backfired.
That Thousand Mile Trace was a fifth-grade weapon. Mo Yu had also refined a few in his previous life. This item could, using some items from the owner's lifetime, calculate a person's location within a thousand miles. It was extremely useful for both pursuit and searching for people.
It was likely that Mulan Valley's large-scale deployment this time was also because they had confirmed that the Lizard Snake Clan was responsible for abducting the Little Beast King.
"Mulan Valley?" Hearing this, the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast skipped over the talk of saving the son and shifted its attention to this massive force, its heart tightening.
Regarding the claim of saving the son, the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast had always considered it a human excuse, meant to conceal their true purpose, because humans were always so hypocritical.
However, the involvement of Mulan Valley made it feel immense trouble. This was a powerful force like the Three Elders of Mu Lan, comparable to a Dou Zong's combat power.
"Humans, my Lizard Snake Clan did not capture your son. You should leave quickly, or else if my King appears, it will be difficult to clean up the mess," the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast threatened, feigning toughness.
"Your Highness, I've long said not to fantasize about negotiating with the Lizard Snakes. Since they've captured the Young Master, we should make them hurt, and then they'll obediently exchange the Young Master back. These lizard Miscellaneous snakes respond best to this..." In mid-air, a burly man lowered his head and loudly spoke to the middle-aged man.
The burly man was dressed in a dark robe, on which was embroidered a golden Lion emblem roaring skyward.
The golden emblem indicated that this person was one of the few first-class guards of the Huang Family, a powerful individual with Dou King strength!
"In that case, then I'll trouble Guard Li to directly capture it. If the Black Lizard Demon Snake King is sensible, he can exchange it for my son. Otherwise, we'll just kill it as a sacrifice!" the Yellow-robed Middle-aged Man said coldly.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man known as Guard Li nodded with a laugh, "Don't worry, Your Highness, just leave it to old Li."
As his voice fell, two more Dou King experts stepped forward and said, "Brother Li, the Little Beast King is not only the Young Master of the Huang Family but also the heir of our Mulan Valley. We two will lend you a hand!"
"Haha, with the help of Mulan Valley's Wind and Rain Twin Kings, we can definitely capture this miscellaneous snake alive!" the burly middle-aged man laughed heartily.
"Hmph, you humans are simply shameless, trying to bully the few with the many!" Seeing the three Dou King experts surround itself in a triangular formation, the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast said indignantly.
With the strength of the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast, if it were to fight against one of them, it would have no fear, but if it were to fight one against three, it would be somewhat difficult.
Furthermore, besides these three, there were also several other Dou Kings and one Dou Emperor in this group!
"No, I must quickly deliver this information to the Great King." Thoughts flashed rapidly through its mind, and the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast no longer hesitated or spoke nonsense. A strange mark suddenly appeared in its scarlet eyes.
At the same time, its snake tail gently slapped the ground. With a slight muffled sound, the calm mound of earth suddenly exploded, and a huge earth wall instantly formed in front of the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast, then overwhelmingly smashed towards everyone.
"Attack!" Seeing the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast make the first move, the burly middle-aged man was also not polite. With a low shout, he raised his head, spread his hands, and a substantial light-green Lion's roar sound wave suddenly spread out from his wide-open mouth.
Where the sound wave spread, the heavily smashing earth wall instantly solidified, and finally fell powerlessly.
As the burly middle-aged man broke the earth wall, the two Dou King experts from Mulan Valley beside him trembled slightly and suddenly disappeared. In a moment, fierce energy fluctuations emanated from behind the earth wall.
After the burly middle-aged man broke the opponent's earth wall attack, he also charged into the nearby battle circle with an almost brutal posture. Immediately, huge sand ravines, dozens of meters long, continuously appeared amidst the flying Qi.
Amidst the flying black earth, the strange mark in the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast's blood-colored eyes rapidly rotated, and then two scarlet energy streaks burst forth from it, condensing into two huge blood snakes.
These two huge blood snakes were not only covered in hard scales, but sharp fangs flashed out whitely as their massive mouths opened and closed.
What was most shocking was that these blood snakes seemed to possess vitality. Two faint fierce Auras emanated from their bodies, and with their strange dodging and sudden attacks, they barely managed to withstand the attacks of the three Dou King experts.
"This Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast has good combat power, but unfortunately, fighting one against three, it won't last long. I wonder when the Black Lizard Demon Snake King will come out; only then will I have a chance to sneak into the palace and search for the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire."
Mo Yu stroked his chin as he watched the fierce battle between the three people and one beast, his thoughts gradually wandering as he murmured.
"Your Highness, it seems that the few sirs can't immediately deal with this Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast. Do we need to go up as well?" a Huang Family second-class guard approached the Yellow-robed Middle-aged Man and said respectfully.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man slightly tilted his head and looked at his own old master.
To join the battle of Dou King experts, Dou Ling experts were not of much use; it still required Dou King experts to act.
His Huang Family only had himself and Guard Li, two Dou Kings, present on this trip. He could not condescend to team up against a Demonic Beast, so he could only let the Dou King experts of Mulan Valley make a move.
And although he was a Prince of the Mu Lan Empire, he could not command the powerful individuals of Mulan Valley; he still needed Lion Old to give the order.
As if sensing the middle-aged man's gaze, the old man slowly opened his eyes. A sharp glint flashed in his tiger-like eyes, and an invisible Aura caused the surrounding air to distort by a third.
The old man's gaze first swept towards the palace in the distance, then he shook his head and said, "No need to send anyone, it's here."
"It?" Hearing this, the middle-aged man was first stunned, then thought of something, and his expression also became serious, saying in a deep voice, "The Black Lizard Demon Snake King..."
As his voice fell, an angry, cold voice suddenly boomed in mid-air.
"Humans, why have you invaded my territory and harmed my clansmen? If you don't give this King an explanation today, my Lizard Snake Clan will never rest until death!"
A massive black lizard serpent immediately flew out from the palace, gradually revealing its true form from a black dot, and steadily landed in mid-air.
Mo Yu's gaze swept towards the huge Demonic Beast in the air. This Demonic Beast was enormous, with a body seven or eight meters long, covered in a layer of black scales. Sunlight shone upon it, radiating light and dazzling the eyes.
The Demonic Beast's head was a rather hideous snake head, with a half-meter long snake tongue constantly flicking in and out of its mouth, emitting a chilling Aura.
Behind the Demonic Beast was a huge snake tail, three or four meters long. The snake tail swayed slightly, seemingly distorting even the Void Realm by a third.
Around the body of this huge Demonic Beast, a strange energy like black mist continuously swirled, sweeping out overwhelmingly. Its four thick claws were also covered in a layer of black scales. Each step it took caused the Void Realm to tremble, making it hard to imagine how great its strength was.
The huge Demonic Beast stood in the Void Realm, and an invisible pressure descended from the sky, making Mo Yu's heart tremble slightly.
"Is that the Black Lizard Demon Snake King?"
Looking at this sixth-tier Demonic Beast, Mo Yu couldn't help but think of the Amethyst Winged Lion King he had encountered earlier in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. It had to be said that the Aura of this Black Lizard Demon Snake King in front of him was even stronger by a third than the latter, probably comparable to a seven or eight-star Dou Emperor expert.
Coupled with the fact that this was the territory of the Lizard Snake Clan, even though Lion Old, one of the Three Elders of Mu Lan, was a Peak Dou Emperor expert, it probably wouldn't be easy to deal with the Black Lizard Demon Snake King.
Naturally, Mo Yu was delighted by this, as only the longer and more intense the conflict between the two sides, the more he could fish in troubled waters.
As soon as the Black Lizard Demon Snake King appeared, its cold snake eyes coldly stared at the three Dou King experts who were besieging the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent King.
Being stared at by a sixth-tier Demonic Beast, the burly middle-aged man and the other two immediately felt a bone-chilling coldness, and their scalps tingled. They then looked up at the huge Demonic Beast in mid-air.
Seeing the Black Lizard Demon Snake King appear, the three men's expressions turned serious. After exchanging glances, they all stopped their attacks and moved their bodies, returning to the main group.
After all, although their side was not afraid of the Lizard Snake Clan, the Black Lizard Demon Snake King was a sixth-tier Demonic Beast. King against king, general against general. Before Lion Old spoke, they could not casually start a conflict.
"Cough cough... Great King, this subordinate was negligent and let humans infiltrate."
After the burly man and the two others withdrew from the battle, the Gray Lizard Blood Serpent Beast, covered in wounds, came to the Black Lizard Demon Snake King, its Aura weak, its voice low and feeble.
"Graysha, this is not your fault. These human experts are despicable for bullying the few with the many. Don't worry, this King will avenge your grievances!"
After speaking, the Black Lizard Demon Snake King coldly stared at the burly middle-aged man and the two others, flicking its snake tongue, its snake eyes containing undisguised killing intent.
Under such a gaze, although the burly man and the other two were Dou King experts, a hint of coldness involuntarily rose in their hearts, chilling them like winter.
If their side didn't also have a Peak Dou Emperor expert, facing the murderous Black Lizard Demon Snake King, the three of them would probably have already fled.
The might of a sixth-tier Demonic Beast, even a Dou King expert, could not provoke it.
Just as the Black Lizard Demon Snake King's killing intent was gradually surging, the Qing Pao old man suddenly took a step forward, erupting with a vast and powerful azure Dou Qi filled with a primal Aura.
With the appearance of this Aura, the Black Lizard Demon Snake King's cold Aura was immediately shattered. Then, the Qing Pao old man looked at the Black Lizard Demon Snake King, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, and spoke in an unquestionable tone.
"Lizard Serpent King, hand over my grandson!"
