Chapter 720 - 418: The Crash...
Things always happen so unexpectedly. Xue Dili always felt like he was here to blow up fish, especially with the addition of Old Demon Emperor and the others. In this world, they’re professional players playing in a casual match, just wildly slaughtering!
So Xue Dili relaxed a little, preparing to fly over directly at the fastest speed. Mainly because they only knew a rough direction. If they knew the exact location, Xue Dili could even open a Teleportation Gate directly to the Witch Demon King’s lair and then invite it to soak in lava.
However, Old Demon Emperor’s Blood Dragon flew at a decent speed too, reaching several Machs at its limit, which was fast enough to quickly find that Great Tomb.
At several Machs, the speed is fast enough that most attacks can’t hit, except for Light. Few attacks reach this speed.
On Earth, only the big three rogues have missiles that can reach this speed.
Who would have thought that just as Xue Dili relaxed a bit, getting ready to eat hotpot and sing songs on the back of the Blood Dragon, a strange beam of light suddenly shot up from the ground, instantly scarring the Blood Dragon’s wing.
Actually, this didn’t severely injure the Blood Dragon or even cut off its wing. But as any ace pilot knows, at supersonic speeds, a slight imbalance can easily lead to a crash, making it extremely hard to see the sun at 4 AM the next day.
The Blood Dragon immediately lost its balance in flight, lurching left and right!
"Old man, control the direction! Pull up! Pull up!" Xue Dili shouted immediately.
Old Demon Emperor’s face turned dark as he hastily maneuvered the Blood Dragon to rise, but it was too late. To observe the ground, they chose to fly at a low altitude of a few hundred meters. Thus, when the flight speed was fast enough, the crashing speed would also be fast enough, giving Old Demon Emperor less than a second to pull up.
"Pull up failed, preparing to crash..." Old Demon Emperor said directly.
"What!?"
"Boom!" The Blood Dragon crashed rapidly to the ground, immediately blasting up dust hundreds of meters into the sky.
Xue Dili clawed his way out of the crash site, his face covered in dust, almost missing the sunrise at 4 AM. Even for him, crashing at several Machs was a bit strenuous.
Old Demon Emperor was even more injured. His Blood Dragon was temporarily unusable, and he could only use some simple Blood Magic.
"Who is it?" Xue Dili immediately asked, a bit angry.
He didn’t know if it was [Flowing Light Sand] supplying the emotion or himself, but he couldn’t bear it. He wanted to punch the culprit to pieces.
They didn’t even have to search for the source; soon, a vast Undead Army surrounded them. Now the two seemed to have reached the world of the dead, the heartland of the Undead.
These Undead weren’t just a disorganized mass but formed into neat military formations. Death Knights rode skeletal mounts; heavily armored Undead clad in thick Bone Armor, and numerous skeletal Giant Beasts more than ten meters tall lined up in a perfectly orderly military formation.
It was clear that the mastermind had learned military organization, perhaps even excelling at it.
Soon, as Xue Dili rolled up his sleeves ready for a fight, an astonishingly beautiful young lady stepped out, appearing utterly out of place with the Undead Army.
Like a noble aristocrat, her black and white dress accentuated her snow-white skin, which emitted an alluring blush. Her silver hair draped over her shoulders, and her wide-brimmed hat showed no signs of being tainted.
Beneath her dress, her bare legs gave the impression as if she were wearing white stockings.
"Greetings, Lord Demon King." The vampire lady curtsied slightly, not to Xue Dili, but to Old Demon Emperor.
She seemed to recognize that Old Demon Emperor was the former Emperor of the Empire, known in this world as the "Demon King."
Although Xue Dili always felt this "Demon King" title was a bit ambiguous, Old Demon Emperor was really just the leader of the Demon Race...
As Xue Dili scrutinized the young lady, Old Demon Emperor remained stone-faced, murmuring, "Bloodline, daughter of the Old Dio family?"
The vampire young lady covered her mouth and giggled, possibly mocking or even ridiculing: "So the noble Lord Demon King still remembers me! My parents and all my elders were killed by you! I even had to submit to you, and now, look at these skeletons, these Undead!"
"These were all subjects of your Empire! Now they’ve all become my minions! Ha, ha-ha-ha, hee-hee-hee!" She laughed, disregarding the noble disposition, roaring with laughter, as if to suppress decades of pent-up resentment in her heart.
Xue Dili: "..."
Though they were enemies, Xue Dili felt a bit overwhelmed by this vampire young lady. He turned his head and looked at Old Demon Emperor with eyes as if looking at garbage, asking, "Was she your little wife?"
After all, the vampire directly said she "submitted to Old Demon Emperor," instantly switching Xue Dili’s perception from an Ice Crown Throne scene to a film set of Tiny Times.
After all, Old Demon once was an Emperor, and even if an Emperor was over a hundred, marrying a teenage young wife was still normal...right?
But it didn’t stop Xue Dili from looking at Old Deng as if he were trash.
"Don’t look at me with that disgusting gaze! She was my youngest son’s fiancée!" Old Demon Emperor glared fiercely at Xue Dili.
