CHAPTER 1784: CHAPTER 1785: A DESPERATE FOX LEAPS OVER THE WALL

The Tiger Demon, speaking coldly, noticed the only Demon King beside him who hadn’t moved, and said coldly.

"Old Fox, why aren’t you going up there to join in?"

The old Water Fox shook his head and said, "The opportunity on that island originally belonged to the Great King. Since the Great King hasn’t moved, how dare I?"

The Tiger Demon snorted coldly, "Old Fox, why are you pretending to be a big fox? Was it that youngster in your clan who told you that the sword hasn’t lost its spiritual energy at all?"

The old Water Fox remained silent. He knew there was no point in lying in front of the Tiger Demon.

For the Fox Demon in front of him, who already had the answer in his heart, whatever he said would only make things worse.

Meanwhile, faced with the advancing Demon Clan, the Dragon Slayer Sword finally reacted.

A Bat Demon that approached the Dragon Slayer Sword from the sky was struck by a fierce Sword Qi as soon as it entered the sword’s killing range.

With merely one strike, it severely injured this Demon King Realm Bat Demon, causing it to plunge into the water.

This sudden scene left the other demon clans momentarily stunned.

They never expected that the sword, which had never attacked the Little Fox, would strike them mercilessly as soon as they approached.

Those demon clans who lagged a step behind and charged up realized something was wrong and started thinking of stopping.

Yet just as they halted, a bloody claw strike came from behind.

With a single strike, it tore apart an Eighth Grade Demon General completely!

Everyone turned in astonishment, and the one who unleashed the claw strike was none other than the Tiger Demon, still standing still in its original spot.

He licked the residual blood on his right claw with his tongue and coldly looked at the group of demons.

"All of you with ill intentions must die!"

The fear of death instantly enveloped all the demon clan members. Realizing there was no retreat, they ignored the threat in front of them and surged toward the island again.

They all understood that having chosen betrayal, there was no turning back.

Stopping would only invite retaliation from the Tiger Demon!

In this virtually desperate situation, almost instinctively, all the demons realized that only by seizing the opportunity on the island could they find a glimmer of hope in this desperate situation.

After all... After all, there was still the precedent of the Little Fox who successfully approached the island, and perhaps they could also be the one chosen to gain the opportunity?

Of course, some chose to flee in other directions, but the Fox Demon, having anticipated this, had long arranged for several Demon Kings to guard crucial locations, ready to slay any fleeing demons on the spot.

In this almost inescapable situation, the group could only charge toward the island one after another.

And the result was that each of them became a ghost under the Dragon Slayer Sword.

"Great King, wasn’t gathering all the demon clans here initially intended to create this scene?"

Watching the demon clan lives perishing like weeds before him, the old Water Fox spoke to the Fox Demon with a sigh.

The Tiger Demon, observing the situation, lightly spoke.

"You, old thing, are indeed a bit clever. That’s right. Seeing the demon corpses everywhere, I came up with this plan. So I went to such great lengths to incorporate all of you. Initially, I intended to use force to compel them, but I didn’t expect that Little Fox to create such an ingenious situation for me. Truly, heaven helps me."

Hearing this, the old Water Fox fell into silence. Although these demon clans were not his, he still wasn’t willing to witness such a scene.

Yet he hadn’t expected that his unintentional move had indeed turned him into an accomplice of the Tiger Demon.

"You possess the strength of an Eighth Grade Demon King and a decent mind. You should have figured out the level of that sword."

"Above Demon King, at least Imperial Level. Beyond that... I can’t judge."

"Hmm, that’s about right. That sword, in its ownerless state, is indeed of Imperial Level, and its Sword Qi has a strong deterrent. Even I am not confident to face it directly. But power has its limits, even more so for ownerless objects. Even if its sword aura is sharp, after slaughtering so many of the demon clan, it will inevitably become sluggish, and that will be my moment to strike."

An likewise unmoving Lily Spirit commented, "Great King’s wisdom and strategy are astonishing. How did I not think of this?"

"You? The fact that you held back from charging out surprises me plenty already."

The Tiger Demon snorted coldly, genuinely not expecting the Lily Spirit to remain in her place.

The Lily Spirit was momentarily stunned, then immediately complained, "Great King, your words... I’m absolutely loyal to you, with no hidden motives!"

The Tiger Demon laughed coldly, evidently dismissive. Although unsure why the Little Demon hadn’t charged, he was certain it harbored no true loyalty to him.

"Speaking of which, Great King, do you know why that sword never attacks the Little Fox? Even though the sword sees other Water Foxes as enemies as soon as they get close."

Amidst the surging demons, some from the Water Fox Demon Clan also rushed out. After all, Chang Li was one of them, which naturally stirred some of her kin.

However, those Water Foxes didn’t share Chang Li’s fate. Upon approaching the Sword Circle of the Dragon Slayer Sword, they, like the other demons, were slain by the sword.

The Tiger Demon shook his head, unable to comprehend this either.

He could see that the Little Fox’s talent was acceptable, but it was just an ordinary demon clan, with nothing remarkable about it.

Ultimately, the Tiger Demon’s gaze fell on the old Fox.

Sensing a hint of danger, the old Fox quickly looked up at the Tiger Demon.

"Great King, you’re looking at me, but I don’t know either. Perhaps Chang Li really is blessed with some kind of fortune."

"Bullshit fortune! Do you think you can trick me like a child?"

With a palm strike on the ground, the earth trembled, and the old Water Fox knelt down instantly, continuing to explain.

"Great King, please calm your anger. I truly don’t know how to explain it, so I’ve attributed it to that mysterious fortune."

The Tiger Demon, looking at the kneeling old Water Fox, chuckled coldly, "No need to be so tense. You refrained from charging, proving your loyalty, so I won’t harm you casually."

"Thank you, Great King."

The old Water Fox had just breathed a sigh of relief when the Tiger Demon continued, "This mystery piques my curiosity. Since the issue originates from your Water Fox Clan, you can personally seek an answer for me."

The old Water Fox’s head snapped up, his eyes filled with shock, evidently unwilling to accept this proposal.

The Tiger Demon’s brows tightened, and his expression changed instantly.

"What? Are you unwilling?"

"No, I..."

The old Water Fox hesitated, countless thoughts flashing through his mind in that moment. Within mere moments, the old Water Fox had made a final decision.

Suddenly raising his head, the old Water Fox extended his sharp claws and ruthlessly attacked the Tiger Demon’s abdomen!
