Chapter 61 – The Night Falls, the War Begins The energy unleashed by a Heavenly Core Demon Lord had sped up everyone’s heartbeats. They were all scared right now. Everyone was looking at Lee Shan Yue. It was obvious that this Demon Lord came here because of their chief. A Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon Soul? What was that; many of the people present had not even heard about the Blood Winged Hawk. What if they provoked this Demon Lord, and he just simply destroyed the Lee family? It would be a joke; if the Lee family was just preparing to go to war with the Yan family and were finished even before the war began? That would just be bad luck. Lee Shan Yue was startled. He was stared at by those cold eyes belonging to the old man dressed in the bck robe. It really gave him a creepy feeling. He knew what the Blood Winged Hawk was. It was a powerful Demon Beast, but he honestly didn’t have its Demon Soul. “Your honorable, are you making some mistake? There is no Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon Soul in my Lee family!” Lee Shan Yue bowed politely towards the old man. He dared not be any impolite, and he tried speaking as softly as he could. He was scared that if he were to provoke this old man, he would die from a sp. “The Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon Soul is with you, hmph! I’ll give you the time of three breaths to hand it over to me! If you don’t, I’ll kill everyone here!” The old man in the bck robe spoke with a cold and emotionless voice. His killing intent could easily be sensed by the others; no one doubted what he said. Everyone’s faces had changed. No one dared doubt what the old man in bck said. If Lee Shan Yue didn’t hand over the Demon’s Soul within three breath, this old man would kill them all. With their abilities, there was no way for them to defend themselves when facing a Heavenly Core Demon Lord. Lee Shan Yue started cold sweating instantly. The Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon Soul, what was that thing? He really didn’t have it, but this guy in front of him was so sure that he really did have it. What made Lee Shan Yue even more upset was that this man in front of him was not someone that could be pushed around. If he couldn’t hand it over in three breaths time… This was not a funny joke. “Don’t tell me it’s this red Demon Soul?” Suddenly a thought appeared in Lee Shan Yue’s mind. He hurriedly took out an item from his s.p.a.cial bag. “Is this the Demon Soul your honorable is looking for?” Lee Shan Yue held up a red Demon Soul and asked. He had accidentally obtained this Demon Soul a few years ago during an outing. Although he didn’t know which Demon Beast this belonged to, it contained strong blood and qi, as well as some strange energy. Lee Shan Yue had a feeling that this was an extraordinary items. That was why he had kept it and put it in a corner within his storage. After all these years, he had never really paid much attention to it. He was really surprised that it would attract the attention of a Demon Lord. However, Lee Shan Yue wasn’t too sure because it was obvious that this Demon’s Soul belonged to an Early Mortal Core Demon Beast. This big bck hawk in front of him was a Heavenly Core Demon Lord. How could he take a Mortal Core Demon’s Soul so seriously?” “It really is the Blood Winged Hawk! Haha, this Demon Soul even has the complete bloodline of the Blood Winged Hawk! Lucky, I’m really lucky!” When the old man saw the red Demon Soul, he immediately started ughing in excitement. For normal people, this Demon Soul was just an ordinary Demon Soul, but for the demon hawk species, this was a priceless treasure. What the old man cared about was not the level of the Demon Soul, but the bloodline within. The Blood Winged Hawk was a king amongst the demon hawk. The bloodline was incredibly precious. Normal humans and Demon Beasts couldn’t absorb the bloodline, but this old man could. When Lee Shan Yue took out the Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon Soul, all the men from the Lee family let out a sigh of relief. At least their lives were safe now. “Give me the Demon’s Soul!” The old man in bck said with an incontrovertible tone. “Yes, your honorable!” Lee Shan Yue replied. But just when he was about to hand over the Demon’s Soul, he suddenly pulled it back. A bright light shone appeared in his eyes, and it was followed by a cold smile on his face. “Your honorable. The Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon Soul, I’ll hand it over, but I wish to ask a favor from your honorable!” Lee Shan Yue said. This was a great chance for him. With the current strength and spirits of the Lee family, if they went to war with the Yan family, they wouldn’t have any advantages. But if this Demon Lord could help them, then it would be a completely different story. “What? How dare you to negotiate with me?!” The old man in bck unleashed his energy as a furious look appeared on his face. “I dare not!” Le Shan Yue kneeled down on the ground and raised the Demon’s Soul high up into the air and said, “I just have a wish that your honorable can help me! But I never had any intentions to negotiate! If your honorable doesn’t wish to help, I’ll dare not say anything! Please accept this Demon’s Soul, your honorable!” “En, you’re a man with a nice att.i.tude, and my mood is pretty good today. As a favor for this Demon’s Soul, tell me, what is the matter you need my help with?” The old man grabbed the Demon’s Soul and kept staring at it while speaking to Lee Shan Yue. Lee Shan Yue was incredibly happy upon hearing this. He was a clever man. He knew that if he used the Demon’s Soul as a token of negotiation, it would definitely provoke the big bck hawk. All Demon Beasts possessed a cruel and hot temper, so it would only bring the opposite effect and cause the Lee family to be ma.s.sacred. That was why Lee Shan Yue did exactly what the old man wanted while at the same time reaching his own goal. “I wish your honorable to help me kill two men!” Lee Shan Yue said. “Haha, that’s easy! Tell me, who do you want me to kill?” The old man in bck started ughing out loud. To him, killing two men was really easy, just like grabbing a piece of cake. “The first one is the chief of this city’s Yan family, Yan Zhan Yun! The other one is a Heavenly Core warrior in Fragrant Sky city. If your honorable could help me kill these two men, then that would be of great help to us!” Lee Shan Yue kneeled down on the ground as he spoke. He never dared asked anything too excessive, like asking the old man in bck to destroy the Yan family. As long as this old man could help him kill Yan Zhan Yun and the hidden Heavenly Core warrior in Fragrant Sky city, the Lee family would be able to destroy the Yan family themselves and take control of Red city. As for Jiang Chen, he wanted to catch him personally and torture him bit by bit until he died. He would not let him escape through death. “Oh? How come there’s a Heavenly Core warrior in such a small pce?” The old man in bck furrowed his brows. “Your honorable, that Heavenly Core warrior is just at the early stages. He isn’t a threat to your honorable!” Lee Shan Yue saw the old man hesitate and hurriedly told him that. In fact, he hadn’t even seen the face of that Heavenly Core warrior, so he didn’t know if the man was at the Early Heavenly Core realm, . He only said it so this old man in bck would help him. “Alright, I’ll help you. The Heavenly Core of a human is useful for me as well. I had never expected that I could find a Heavenly Core warrior in this small pce, interesting. But, just in case, you’ll have to wait until I absorb the Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon’s Soul before I help you kill that Heavenly Core warrior.” The old man in bck said. A Heavenly Core warrior was not someone ordinary. They weren’t easy to deal with. Even the old man himself had to be careful about this. But, now that he had the Blood Winged Hawk’s Demon’s Soul, he was significantly more confident that he would be successful. Aside from that, the reason why he agreed to help Lee Shan Yue was because of the Heavenly Core in a Heavenly Core warrior’s body. It was something that could provide really good benefits for demon beasts. “Sure, there’s no hurry in killing that Heavenly Core warrior… But, I wish your honorable can help me kill Yan Zhan Yun before your honorable enters closed door cultivation to absorb the Demon’s Soul!” Lee Shan Yue had an evil smile on his face.
