Instantly, the acrid stench of urine filled the air.
"It stinks!"
Hua Tianmen pinched his nose and scoffed, "This guy was so arrogant and domineering just a moment ago, and now he’s so scared he’s pissed himself."
The Evil King looked aggrieved.
He thought, ’If you were being pinned under the foot of such a terrifying being, you’d probably be even more scared than I am.’
Su Mo asked, "Well? What are you going to do about this?"
"I’ll compensate you! I’ll compensate you!"
The Evil King flipped his hand, and dozens of Healing Spiritual Medicines appeared in his palm. "Elder, do you think this is enough?"
"Huh? Is that a Nine-Curve Spirit Ginseng? A thousand-year-old one, at that—it’s already turned purple."
"And Rejuvenating True Water."
"Is that white block Qingming Spiritual Milk? That’s a Holy Medicine for healing!"
Seeing the numerous Healing Spiritual Medicines the Evil King had produced, everyone’s eyes went wide, and they practically drooled with greed.
These were all priceless Treasures that couldn’t be bought on the open market.
"Fellow Daoist Su..."
Shen Weiyang stared intently at Su Mo.
Su Mo ignored her, however. Instead, he stepped on the Evil Demon’s shoulder and said, "Do you think this is enough?"
"I have more!"
The Evil King took out another large pile of high-quality Spiritual Medicine.
It was a massive pile.
Only then was Su Mo satisfied. "Everyone, divide these Healing Spiritual Medicines and treat your wounds."
"Alright!"
In an instant, the dozens of people had completely divided up the Spiritual Medicine.
The Evil King’s heart ached with regret.
This was a hoard of precious medicinal ingredients he had spent a full hundred years accumulating, and now it was all gone in the blink of an eye.
He had simply been making a wedding dress for someone else to wear.
It had to be said, the effects of these Healing Spiritual Medicines were truly excellent.
In just ten-odd minutes, everyone’s injuries were completely healed.
Lu Ya stretched out his right leg. "Disciple, look! Master’s leg bone is completely healed. Now, your master can run again."
"My internal organs have also recovered," Shen Weiyang said in pleasant surprise.
Fairy Jinghong’s face lit up with joy. "My injuries are all healed too."
"Elder Su, thank you so much. If you hadn’t intervened to save us, we all might have died at this fiend’s hands." Fairy Jinghong cupped her fists at Su Mo.
She had witnessed Su Mo’s formidable strength at the Holy Spirit Assembly.
But this time, she was still utterly shaken.
An Evil King powerful enough to command eight thousand Evil Demons had been taken down by Su Mo with just two slaps.
It was simply unbelievable.
"Sigh, it’s true that the new generation surpasses the old."
"Isn’t that the truth? A being that even the two of us couldn’t defeat was beaten by a junior. We’re such failures."
Shen Weiyang and Lu Ya sighed helplessly.
No wonder their disciples were willing to risk their lives to come here and see Su Mo.
It turned out Su Mo was as strong as a monster.
Su Mo waved his hand. "I was just passing by. No need to thank me. By the way, you came here for the Blood Essence Demon Fruit, right?"
"Elder, you also know about the Blood Essence Demon Fruit?" Fairy Jinghong asked in surprise.
Su Mo nodded. "Bai Luoxue told me everything."
Fairy Jinghong admitted, "To be honest, Elder Su, we did indeed come here for the Blood Essence Demon Fruit. I was just wondering..."
Fairy Jinghong stole a glance at the Evil King.
The Evil King was wiping away cold sweat.
’Su Mo took so many of my Treasures; surely he’ll spare me now.’
But just then...
BANG!
A large foot slammed down on the Evil King’s head, making him grimace in pain. "Ow, ow, ow! My lord, spare me!"
"Hand over the Blood Essence Demon Fruit!" Su Mo said coldly.
What?
The Evil King’s face darkened. "My lord, that Blood Essence Demon Fruit is something I painstakingly cultivated for a hundred years..."
"Should I take it from your corpse myself?" Su Mo asked.
Cold sweat streamed down the Evil King’s back. "No need to kill me, my lord! I cultivated the Blood Essence Demon Fruit especially for you. I’ll present it to you now as a tribute."
With that, the Evil King quickly took out the Essence Blood Demon Fruit.
There were nine of them in total.
Su Mo took out three and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, Fellow Daoist Lu, Fairy Jinghong, these three fruits are for you."
"Really?"
The three of them lit up and hurriedly accepted the Blood Essence Demon Fruit from Su Mo, swallowing them directly.
Keeping such a Treasure on one’s person would only attract disaster.
It was best to consume it immediately.
BOOM! BOOM!
In the blink of an eye, Shen Weiyang and Lu Ya advanced from Late Stage Martial King to Martial King Perfection.
Fairy Jinghong’s improvement was even greater.
She had originally been a Mid Stage Martial Monarch, but now she had advanced to Martial Monarch Great Perfection, just one step away from the Martial King Realm.
Seeing the three of them advance their Realms, the Evil King’s face turned green with envy and regret.
He had intended to use those Essence Blood Demon Fruits to improve his own Cultivation, but instead, they had benefited others.
’If I had known,’ he thought, ’I never would have set a trap for them in the first place.’
Su Mo asked, "This guy injured you. How do you want to deal with him?"
"Let’s spare him," Shen Weiyang said lightly.
Lu Ya agreed. "He injured us, and we consumed his Essence Blood Demon Fruit. That makes us even. As long as he doesn’t try anything with us again in the future, it’s fine."
"Don’t worry, I promise I’ll be a good person from now on," the Evil King said, patting his chest.
"Alright, since you’ve spared him, I won’t slap him to death. However..."
Su Mo turned to the Evil King and said, "You have to be my guide."
He was completely unfamiliar with the Demon Venerable Burial Ground and could easily get lost. He needed to find someone who knew the way.
The Evil King had lived here for several hundred years; he was the perfect candidate.
"My lord, where are you planning to go?" the Evil King asked curiously.
’The important thing is to save my own skin.’ As long as he wasn’t killed, he would do anything—not just be a guide, but even climb a mountain of knives or jump into a wok of boiling oil.
Su Mo pointed to a blood-red mountain in the distance. "The Bloody Mountain Range."
"What?"
The Evil King was stunned.
Shen Weiyang and Lu Ya were also horrified, their faces etched with disbelief.
"Fellow Daoist Su, I must advise you not to set foot in the Bloody Mountain Range. There is an extremely terrifying being there," Shen Weiyang urged.
Lu Ya added, "That’s right. The Bloody Mountain Range is indeed very dangerous. A hundred years ago, two Elders from our Great Demon Sect, both at the Martial King Perfection Realm, went in and never came out."
"Oh?"
Su Mo looked at the Evil King and asked, "Is that so?"
The Evil King nodded emphatically. "My lord, I know the master of the Bloody Mountain Range. His name is Blood Demon. He’s a great Evil Demon who kills without batting an eye. He doesn’t just kill you humans; he kills us Evil Demons too."
"He preys on his own kind?" Su Mo said, stunned.
The Evil King shook his head. "That fiend Blood Demon has never considered us Evil Demons his kin. In his eyes, we are just his nourishment. Whenever he needs it, he will capture us for a blood sacrifice."
"He’s that cruel?"
Su Mo looked troubled. "But I have to go there. What should I do?"
The Evil King thought for a moment, then asked, "My lord, are you perhaps looking for the Burial Ground Blood Flower?"
"You know about the Burial Ground Blood Flower?" Su Mo said in surprise.
The Evil King said with a smile, "I do. I’ve snuck in there before. I know where that fiend Blood Demon is cultivating the Burial Ground Blood Flower, and I also know that he has four other Evil Demons guarding it for him."
Su Mo pressed on, "Do you know what their strength levels are?"
The Evil King said with dread, "Their strength is more than ten times greater than mine. They’re exceptionally terrifying, comparable to your human Martial King Great Perfection Realm."
