420: Chapter 420 The Dragon Attacks

His gaze fell upon Hua Liuli.

This woman, who controlled the array eye of the Space-Time Rift, had eyes filled with anticipation and—a hint of imperceptible pleading.

She could worry for thousands of years over those unborn children, try various methods to save the Demon Emperor's lifespan, and be so excited over a single successful enlightenment—

Perhaps, this was a very rare opportunity.

An opportunity that would not only increase Hua Liuli's favorability but also pave the way for subsequent plans!

Chen Yi had an idea in his mind!

He wore a troubled expression and sighed: "Sorry, Liuli. Just like awakening the bloodline of a spirit beast, this kind of power—I cannot use it without limits either."

Hua Liuli's expression stiffened slightly: "Are there any conditions required? Is it energy replenishment? Or resources? Just say it, I will satisfy it with all my might!"

Chen Yi shook his head and said: "It's not a matter of resources! The energy required to help the Demon Emperor awaken—is completely different from awakening a spirit beast; it requires a more special kind of energy, it needs—"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a hurried voice.

"It's bad, Chen Yi!"

Lilian rushed into the underground space with the other women, "Something very strange is attacking!"

Chen Yi was stunned: "Attacking?"

For the past few months, Lilian's Bai Ze bloodline precognition ability had not triggered.

Chen Yi had thought it was because they were at the Demon Abyss Cult headquarters, and the presence of beings like Hua Liuli and Emilia had interfered with the precognition, making him act cautiously.

Now that she had finally seen a glimpse of the future, the result was that something was attacking right away?

But even if there was an attack, so what?

The Demon Abyss Cult had Emilia; she was a Vampire Progenitor who had lived for eight thousand years, the strongest in this world!

With her here, what was there to fear?

"What kind of thing is it?"

"I don't know—"

Lilian shook her head and said, "It is something that even my ability cannot see through—it's all a fog! I only saw—Lady Emilia—"

She paused, her voice becoming even more trembling: "Lady Emilia—is not a match for that thing!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell into dead silence.

Hua Liuli's expression instantly froze.

Chen Yi's pupils contracted sharply.

What the hell?

In this world, there is someone that Emilia cannot defeat?

How is that possible?

Who is Emilia?

A Vampire Progenitor, a being who has lived for eight thousand years, the leader of the Demon Abyss Cult's Purification Faction, and the recognized strongest in the world!

A being that even Hua Liuli has to show respect to!

An opponent that even she cannot defeat—just how strong must that be?

"How much longer until that thing—"

Chen Yi's question was not yet finished.

"Boom—"

A deafening loud noise came from not far away!

Immediately after, the entire Demon Abyss Cult headquarters began to shake violently!

The ground trembled, walls cracked, and dust from the ceiling fell down in showers.

The demonic beasts in the cages let out terrified roars; some frantically slammed against the bars, while others curled up in corners, shivering.

"What's going on?!"

"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack!"

"Quick! Go support!"

"Ah—help!"

Exclamations from near and far came from all directions, mixed with explosions, collapsing sounds, and screams, forming a chaotic symphony.

Hua Liuli's expression instantly became incomparably grave.

Chen Yi also felt the severity of the situation.

An enemy capable of causing this kind of commotion at the Demon Abyss Cult headquarters was definitely not simple.

Just then, two figures emerged from the shadows and appeared before Hua Liuli.

It was Shadow Brake and Bone Erosion.

These two Demon Emperors both appeared somewhat disheveled at this moment; Shadow Brake's cloak was torn at the corner, and Bone Erosion's face was pale, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

"Queen!"

Shadow Brake knelt on one knee, his voice hurried, "There is an enemy invasion! A—a man we have never seen before! His strength—his strength is unfathomable!"

Bone Erosion added: "He has already broken through three defensive lines and killed at least thirty high-ranking members! He is currently advancing toward the core area!"

Hua Liuli frowned tightly: "What about Emilia? Didn't she take action?"

"Lady Emilia has already taken action!"

"But—but she has been suppressed! Completely suppressed!"

This sentence made everyone's hearts sink.

Emilia—was suppressed?

That strongest in the world was actually suppressed?

"I'll go check it out!"

Hua Liuli made a prompt decision and turned to walk outside, "Shadow Brake, Bone Erosion, you two stay behind, settle this girl down! Arrange a room for her, prepare some clothes and daily necessities, as for the rest—we'll talk after we return."

"Yes!"

Shadow Brake and Bone Erosion responded simultaneously.

Hua Liuli looked at Chen Yi: "Chen Yi, come with me! The others—stay here for now and protect yourselves."

But Chen Yi shook his head: "No, they are coming too! If the enemy is truly that strong, staying here is not safe either, and more people means more strength."

Hua Liuli thought for a moment and nodded: "Fine! Then everyone follow, be careful!"

The group quickly left the underground space and rushed toward the direction where the tremors were coming from.

Demon Abyss Cult headquarters, central plaza.

This was originally a vast plaza; the ground was paved with black magic stones, and twelve huge stone pillars stood around it.

In the center of the plaza was a huge fountain, which sprayed not water, but magical liquid that emitted a faint glow.

But now, this plaza had turned into ruins.

The ground was cracked, the stone pillars had collapsed, the fountain was destroyed, and magical liquid flowed all over the ground, gleaming with an eerie light in the cracks.

And what was most shocking was the scene in the plaza.

A figure stood in the center of the ruins.

It was a man, about two meters tall, bare-chested, revealing well-defined muscles.

His skin was a dull bronze color, covered with a layer of fine black scales, and on his head grew a pair of curved black dragon horns, with sharp tips that exuded a dangerous aura.

His face was handsome yet evil, his long black hair draped over his shoulders, and his eyes were pure dark gold.

There was no emotion in his vertical pupils, only cold killing intent.

His hands were currently wrapped in black lightning.

That lightning was not ordinary lightning, but composed of pure dark energy, with each bolt containing destructive power.

He stood in the ruins, surrounded by dozens of corpses of Demon Abyss Cult members.

There were ordinary cultists, mid-level cadres, and even several high-ranking Demon Emperors—their corpses were scattered everywhere, some charred by lightning, others torn into fragments; the scene was too horrible to look at.

And what was even more shocking was that more Demon Abyss Cult members were surging in from all directions, launching attacks at him.

Magic missiles, curse spells, physical attacks, spirit beast abilities—all kinds of attacks fell upon the Demon Dragon Man like raindrops.

But he just raised his hand casually.

The black lightning danced as if it had a life of its own, easily crushing all attacks, and then killing the attackers one by one.

It was as easy—as swatting flies!
