Chapter 253: Subduing Illusory Demon

“Red Tiger?”

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Isn’t it a dog? Why did it become a tiger?”

“What do you know?”

The Illusory Demon snorted coldly. “There are thousands of Red Dogs in our Demon Realm. Red Tiger is just like your human name.”

“Oh.”

Lu Sheng replied faintly.

The Illusory Demon realized belatedly that something was amiss.

Logically speaking, it had already revealed its true form. Shouldn’t they be scared witless like the other humans and kneel down to beg for mercy?

Indeed, newborn calves were not afraid of tigers.

The Illusory Demon flew around the two of them and laughed weirdly. “Such fragrant blood must taste delicious when drunk.”

The duo looked at it like it was an idiot, as if its words were not threatening at all.

Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows. “Didn’t the Demon Realm sign an agreement with the Immortal World that you would never step foot into the human world again?”

“How do you know that?”

After feeling puzzled, the Illusory Demon said proudly, “Our Demon King has awakened. We don’t have to be afraid of those hypocritical immortals in the Immortal World anymore.”

Chu Sihan understood immediately.

A hundred years ago, during the war between the Immortal World and the Demon Realm, the Demon King was defeated and had fallen into a deep sleep.

Without a leader, the Demon Realm was defeated repeatedly. They had no choice but to surrender to the Immortal World and sign the agreement.

He did not expect the Demon King to awaken so quickly after only a hundred years.

Chu Sihan narrowed his eyes and smiled coldly. “So what if your Demon King has awakened? Since the Immortal World can defeat you once, it can defeat you a second time. If you continue to harm the human world, I’m afraid it won’t be as simple as signing an agreement then.”

“Hah.”

The Illusory Demon laughed coldly. “If not for the Netherworld’s involvement back then, would our Demon King have lost? This time, even if we die, we will suck the blood of you cowardly and hypocritical humans dry.”

“I don’t know if the other demons stand a chance, but you?”

Lu Sheng smiled and said, “You definitely have no chance.”

“Arrogant brat. How dare you boast shamelessly?!”

The Illusory Demon laughed and suddenly pounced on Lu Sheng, wanting to devour her.

However, before it could expand, it was dissipated by a red light.

She saw something fall to the ground. Lu Sheng craned her neck and saw a black worm crawling.

“You’re not mortals!”

The worm let out a strange cry and transformed into black mist again. It spoke coldly.

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Can’t you tell if we’re mortals or not?”

She had always had a mortal body. Let alone the Illusory Demon, but even the Demon King would only think of her as an ordinary mortal.

However, it was a different story with Chu Sihan. The reason why the Illusory Demon couldn’t tell was because its cultivation was lower than Chu Sihan’s. However, if it were the Demon King, it would definitely be able to tell with a single glance.

“Who are you? Did you kill Red Tiger?”

The Illusory Demon floated in the air. This time, it was smart enough not to act rashly.

“No.”

Lu Sheng replied kindly, “It’s just that I knocked it out. If you want to see it, I’ll fulfill your wish.”

As she spoke, she took out a talisman, closed her eyes, and recited, “Subdue the Spirit with Five Lightnings. Lock the ghosts and monsters. Kill the evil and destroy the demons. Subdue!”

The floating Illusory Demon felt a strong suction force pulling it towards the talisman.

It wanted to escape in fear, but realized that someone had unknowingly laid a boundary in the room.

It screamed miserably and tried its best to break free from the suction force. However, no matter how hard it struggled, it was useless.
