CHAPTER 735: CHAPTER 602: FEMALE EARTH EVIL MONARCH

As the voice faded away, a butterfly gracefully flew into the castle and landed on the ground.

"Die Mei Monarch, it’s you!"

It was an exceptionally beautiful butterfly whose vibrant wings resembled the resplendent Other Shore Flower, fiery red in color.

The butterfly touched down on the ground and transformed into an extraordinarily beautiful woman with a face like the full moon, large limpid eyes with slightly upturned corners, and a permanently enchanting and disdainful smile on her face.

The newcomer was Die Mei, the Earth Evil Monarch of the thirty-sixth level of Earth Evil Hall.

With the arrival of Die Mei, nineteen of the twenty-four Hall Masters from the twenty-fifth to the forty-eighth level of Earth Evil Hall—who had not yet been captured—were now all present.

Compared to the other Earth Evil Monarchs, the one named Die Mei was younger and her appearance was more human-like.

Not even a trace of human aura could be found on her.

Upon seeing Die Mei, the other Earth Evil Monarchs all had strange expressions on their faces, showing both reverence and terror.

Logically, the higher-level Earth Evil Monarchs were very arrogant towards the Monarchs of the lower-level Earth Evil Prisons.

However, among the Earth Evil Prisons from the twenty-fifth to the forty-eighth level, Die Mei was an extremely unique existence.

She looked like a young girl, and was the youngest of all Earth Evil Monarchs, yet her strength was unfathomably deep.

Die Mei was also the only monarch who had started as an Earth Evil Soldier and climbed the ranks to Earth Evil Monarch based on her own strength.

This meant that she had fought all the way from the seventy-second level to the throne of Earth Evil Monarch of the thirty-sixth level.

She did not strive for a higher level of Earth Evil Prison because she couldn’t be bothered, as she claimed that her favorite number was thirty-six, and that is why she stayed in the thirty-sixth level of Earth Evil Prison.

As for Die Mei Monarch’s true power, the Earth Evil Monarchs who had confronted her commented that her strength was comparable to that of the higher-level Earth Evil Great Lords.

The so-called Earth Evil Great Lords referred to the twenty-four individuals from the forty-ninth to the seventy-second levels.

Those were beings whose strength was on par with the Peak of Five Reincarnations, old monsters who had stayed in the Earth Evil Prison for thousands of years, just a step away from the twenty-four Heavenly Gang War Generals of the Heavenly Gang Palace.

Although they knew of Die Mei’s illustrious reputation, a few of the senior Earth Evil Monarchs were visibly upset by being reprimanded by a recently advanced Earth Evil Monarch.

"Whom did you just call useless?" The one who spoke was Mu Gui, the Earth Evil Monarch of the forty-eighth level.

"Whoever is useless, I call useless. A single trialist team has scared you to this state, wouldn’t it be laughable if the word got out?" Die Mei sneered.

"Die Mei, you speak so casually. Do you, by any chance, have a way to deal with that trialist team?" Mu Gui retorted angrily.

"Of course I have a way. I don’t need a single soldier to kill that Human Clan woman," Die Mei said proudly.

"Is that so?" The other Earth Evil Monarchs were incredulous.

At this moment, they couldn’t even locate their opponents.

"Indeed it is true. But, I have a condition. If I kill that Human Clan woman, from now on, you all must obey me," Die Mei raised her eyes, those eloquent eyes shining brightly.

"How presumptuous! You, merely to make us all bow down to you? We will take care of that Human Clan woman ourselves. Before we deal with her, I will deal with you first!"

"Oh, it sounds like you want to have a duel with me?" A glint of strange light appeared in Die Mei’s eyes.

In an instant, the castle disappeared.

The other several Earth Evil Monarchs were gone as well, and the surroundings turned into an open expanse of the world.

Mu Gui became alert, his body suddenly transformed from a human shape into an ancient tree with entwining roots, and from all around the ancient tree, countless vines grew.

This was the true form of the Mu Gui Monarch, the Withered Wood Monster.

In contrast, the Die Mei Monarch was still standing there gracefully, without any change.

Around the withered wood, numerous vines, like thousands of spider webs, assaulted Die Mei.

On those vines, there were hook-shaped barbs, which would spray out a strong corrosive poison upon touching any fur.

The vines formed a spherical cage, seemingly about to capture the Die Mei Monarch alive.

Just then, Die Mei let out a charming smile; her body suddenly transformed into countless tiny butterflies the size of fly heads, fluttering around.

Those withered yellow butterflies, numbering in the thousands, extended a sharp little sting from their mouths.

The sting penetrated the vines of the Mu Gui Monarch.

For the Mu Gui Monarch, the vines were his true form; the moment the little sting penetrated, the Mu Gui Monarch felt a brief, piercing pain.

"Die Mei, is this all you’re capable of?" the Mu Gui Monarch taunted.

The vines whipped around wildly, like insane snakes, smashing groups of those withered yellow butterflies into fragments.

Yet at that moment, the vines suddenly became rigid and stopped in mid-air; on the vines, small bumps grew rapidly as if something was trying to burrow out from within the ancient wood.

The Mu Gui Monarch screamed in horror, rolling around in fright.

Suddenly, his body exploded, and countless Butterfly Maggot Worms crawled out from within him.

After using the Spiritual Body of the Mu Gui Monarch, these Butterfly Maggot Worms one by one underwent metamorphosis into butterflies.

The originally withered yellow butterflies, after consuming the body of the Mu Gui Monarch, became brilliantly colorful. They gathered together and once again transformed into the Die Mei Monarch.

Inside the castle, a dozen Earth Evil Monarchs were stunned.

After the Die Mei Monarch’s arrival, the Mu Gui Monarch suddenly declared he would teach her a lesson.

But after saying that, the Mu Gui Monarch suddenly became silent.

He just stared dumbly at the Die Mei Monarch, and after about a quarter of an hour, the Mu Gui Monarch suddenly let out a shriek.

Wailing, he rolled around on the ground as if he was ablaze, continuously rolling and screaming through his sobs.

"It’s coming out, it’s coming out."

Before the other Earth Evil Monarchs could react, the body of the Mu Gui Monarch had already stiffened motionlessly.

A bold Earth Evil Monarch stepped forward to check and found that the Mu Gui Monarch had no breath left; his eyes were nearly split open, his eyeballs full of blood vessels, his limbs contorted together, and his body had not a single wound, clearly he had been scared to death.

The Earth Evil Monarchs were startled and suddenly recalled a rumor about the Die Mei Monarch.

Legend had it that the Die Mei Monarch was most skilled in Illusion Technique. She trapped people within her illusions, and in them, killed them alive. Now it seemed, the rumors were no lie.

The strongest among them, the Mu Gui Monarch, had been effortlessly eliminated by the Die Mei Monarch in just a few short breaths’ time.

The remaining seventeen Earth Evil Monarchs were struck dumb, speechless for a long while, none daring to utter a word.

"Now you should all have nothing to say, right?" Die Mei flicked her long hair and smiled seductively, but the smile, in the eyes of the other Earth Evil Monarchs, was like a death-summoning ghost talisman, chilling to the bone.
