He could not even locate her, so he rushed to Flying Eagles Academy without stopping.
At this moment, that demon tribeâs governor, an old leopard demon known as Aesop finally made his
move after occupying Flying Eagles Academy for a month.
âThe Wasteland once had its glory during ancient times. There may be some leftover treasures of the
humans that the ancient supremes had used in the past over here. Even our demon supremes were
here before too.â
âRecently, Iâve received the news that an ancient demon king of our demon tribe once fought with a
supreme human being. They fought all their way into the Wasteland, but both of them went missing in
the end. Those two supremes most likely died in the Wasteland!â
After Aesop said that, a strong demon member with a face full of long hair next to him exclaimed,
âGovernor Aesop, could it be that the demon king that youâre talking about is the Peacock Heavenly
King that dominated the demon world five thousand years ago?â
Aesop nodded. âYes.â
That person next to him exclaimed, âThe Peacock Heavenly King is the supreme being in the demon
world. Rumor has it that she had a supreme psychic treasure that could crush the human raceâs holy
tool, the Xavion Sword! Back then, she and Emperor Xavion fought all the way from the wilderness in
the north into the Wasteland. After that, there was no news about them anymoreâ¦â
Hiss!
Everyoneâs mood unusually heightened.
If they could find the place where the Peacock Heavenly King had died and find the weapons and
legacy that she had left behind, it would simply be a windfall like a stunned ordinary person after getting
trillions of assets. Then, Aesop continued, âThereâs an opening at the ancient force field now, so we can
enter it. This is a great opportunity. Because of the rules, the humans over here generally arenât strong,
which gives us an opportunity! I have a treasure from the demon tribe with me here. Itâs slightly related
to the Peacock Heavenly King back then, so it can pick up some of her scent. Iâve been preparing for a
month. Finally, I can see some signs of a positive outcome.â
Someone immediately asked, âWhat signs of a positive outcome?â
Aesop said, âAccording to the senses of my treasure, the Peacock Heavenly Kingâs scent is in the west,
but the exact location is still not confirmed.â
âGovernor, what are we waiting for then? Letâs go and look for the treasure now! Those are the
Peacock Heavenly Kingâs items. If we could find the Peacock Heavenly Kingâs precious body, it would
be even better!â The person who spoke had a head like a bird and a pointy nose. This guy was the big
roc demon that could spread his wings five hundred meters wide and was known as the Sky Roc.
Aesop said, âThis is a rather important matter. Itâd be best if we donât bring too many people along. So, I
think just the few of us here is enough. We should work together and look for the treasure first. Then,
we can distribute the loot. What do you guys think?â
Everyone present looked at each other in dismay and nodded their heads.
However, these people did not notice that two subtle figures were standing quietly against the wall in
the corner where they held the secret meeting.
They were Alex and Jade who rushed over from Imperial Capital.
Alexâs original intention was to look for Holly.
However, when he reached the academy, he realized that there were no signs and scent of humans a
long time ago and there were demon tribe members walking around everywhere. Knowing that it was
impossible that Holly was still here, the two originally planned to scout ahead and get some information
out of the demon tribe army before making their plans.
Unexpectedly, they heard those words coincidentally.
âThe demon king, Peacock Heavenly King? Master, have you heard about this person before?â Alex
used mental voice transmission to speak to Jade.
âHe already mentioned that the person appeared five thousand years ago. How would I know? Jade
shook her head.
âHowever, the demon tribe is very strong now. We absolutely cannot let them get the treasure that
whatever demon king has left behind, or else the human race would be finished.â
Alex nodded. âLetâs sneak over to see for ourselves then. If thereâs really a treasure, weâll snatch it. The
demon kingâs treasure should be very good! Oh, the Xavion Sword of Emperor Xavion is a legendary
divine artifact!â
Jade looked at him and smiled gently. âDonât get too excited now. These guys are not easy to deal
with.â
Alex smiled and said, âArenât you here too, Master? Even if a terrible disaster happens, youâre strong
enough to hold it up. Iâll be your little disciple in peace.â
âWhy canât you let me be the little girl in peace?â
âMaster, you canât be lazy.â
âPfft!â
At this moment, she picked up a scent that came from above and her expression immediately changed.
âHeâs back?â
