I am the Thunder Emperor in the fight

Chapter 977 The Deterrence of the Demon King

"River Goddess!"

Swish!
As Aunt Wenling finished speaking, a ghostly figure appeared beside Venerable Taishan.

This person, dressed in a red robe, was none other than the Heavenly Sovereign of the Wen family, He Po.

She stood beside Venerable Taishan, the two of them side by side, their eyes coldly fixed on Elder Mojin.

As the sleeves of this old woman from Wenjiahe fluttered, it seemed as if the sound of a rushing river emanated from within her.

Elder Mo Jin finally stopped, his old face turning extremely gloomy. He stared at Granny He and said in a dark tone, "The Wen family is also getting involved in this matter. Aren't they afraid of getting burned?"

With Wenjiahe Po and Venerable Taishan, two supreme beings, even the Futu Ancient Clan couldn't gain much advantage.

Grandma Wen raised her eyelids slightly and said calmly, "Although my Wen family does not have the same profound heritage as your ancient races, we still know how to repay kindness."

Mr. Mo Yu has helped Ling Yun and the others a great deal. This old woman isn't blind; naturally, I can't just stand by and watch you shameless old folks bully the weak with numbers."

Anger surged in Mo Jin's eyes, but he did not fly into a rage. He simply took a deep breath, stared at Mo Yu with a gloomy expression, and said, "I didn't expect you could mobilize two Heavenly Sovereigns. You're really something."

Mo Yu stared at him expressionlessly, a lightning talisman tightly clutched in his sleeve, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

If all else fails, he'll summon his true form. He doesn't believe the Ancient Buddha Clan can send out a Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign!
"Unfortunately, no matter how many people protect you today, it's all in vain!"

As Mo Yu pondered, a mocking smile appeared on the dark gold face. Then he turned to face the outside of the Great Thousand Tower, clasped his hands and said, "Ninth Elder, please make your move."

“Alas…” A sigh suddenly rang out outside Daqian Tower.

Then everyone present saw a hunched old man, holding a black cane, slowly walk in from outside the gate.

His face was withered and emaciated, his eyes were pitch black, and his seemingly slow movements were as if he had broken through space, appearing beside Mo Jin in a single step.

This gaunt old man had nothing particularly unusual about him, but when he appeared, Venerable Taishan and Granny Wenjiahe couldn't help but change their expressions.

"Your Excellency is perhaps the Ninth Elder of the Ancient Buddha Clan, Mo You?!" Wen Jiahe Po asked in a deep voice.

"A Celestial Supreme Being of Immortal Rank?!"

Venerable Taishan's eyes narrowed. This Ancient Pagoda Clan really went all out, even sending out a Celestial Supreme.
Even within the ancient Futu clan, such a figure would be a major figure; it's unexpected that he would appear on the Holy Abyss Continent.

A chorus of exclamations arose within the Great Thousand Pavilion, as numerous demon slayers stared at Mo Yu with astonishment and pity in their eyes.

This person is truly unlucky to have attracted the attention of a Celestial Supreme of the Ancient Buddha Clan.

Mo Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. He was also somewhat surprised that Mo Jin had invited a Celestial Supreme to capture him!

"Are you Mo Yu, the one who inherited my clan's legacy?" The old man with the black staff looked at Mo Yu with his dark eyes and said in a completely calm tone.

Mo Yu said calmly, "Since you know this, you should also know that it was personally given to me by the ancestor of your Futu Ancient Clan. What, do you unfilial descendants want to take it back?"

"Our ancestor has been away from the clan for too long and is unaware of the situation within the clan. These eight pagodas must never be passed on to outsiders."

The old man named Mo You looked at Mo Yu and said leisurely, "However, you are someone valued by the Ancestor, so rest assured, as long as you hand over the Eightfold Pagoda, I can let you leave."

Mo Yu remained indifferent, slowly shaking his head. He clenched his fist in his sleeve, and a thunder talisman appeared in his hand.

That was given to him by the original body, and in the current situation, perhaps he has no choice but to use it.

Although the opponent is a Celestial Supreme of Immortal Rank, the original body has profound foundations and is not without the power to fight against an ordinary Celestial Supreme of Immortal Rank.

"Since you are so stubborn, then I have no choice but to bully the weak."

Seeing Mo Yu's refusal, Mo You sighed and shook his head. Then, he lightly stomped his black staff, and instantly a black halo shot out from the staff.

That halo actually sealed off the space around Mo Yu, and even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was firmly imprisoned within that area.

Mo Yu, who was in the center of the black circle, also felt the binding force. He immediately pursed his lips, exerted force with his palm, and was about to decisively crush the thunder talisman to summon his true self.

boom!
However, just as he was about to crush the thunder talisman, a teacup suddenly shot out from the sky and struck the halo.

The seemingly ordinary teapot shattered the halo of light with a single blow.

The sudden turn of events startled Mo You. He then slowly raised his head and looked at the gray-robed old man walking slowly out from behind the counter of Daqianlou.

That was the person in charge of this Daqian Palace branch.

"You ancient Futu clan, aren't you going a bit too far..."

The old man in the gray robe slowly approached Mo Yu's side and said in a lazy tone.

Mo You frowned and said, "Is the Great Thousand Palace going to get involved too?"

Although the Futu Ancient Clan is one of the five ancient clans, the Great Thousand Palace also holds a transcendent position in the Great Thousand World and is not afraid of the Futu Ancient Clan.

"This is a matter within our clan. If the Great Thousand Palace were to interfere, it would be breaking the rules," Mo You said slowly. The Great Thousand Palace held a superior position, but it had its own rules and never interfered in the affairs between major powers.

"The one who broke the rules wasn't me, it was you," the gray-robed old man shook his head and said.

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Mo Yu, his expression quite subtle. Finally, he gave a wry smile, stretched out his hand, and said, "Give me the Demon-Slaying Token."

Mo Yu was taken aback, then chuckled and took out the golden Demon-Slaying Token, placing it in the gray-robed old man's hand.

He knew that with the intervention of the Great Thousand Palace, the matter was no longer a major problem.

The gray-robed old man held the Demon-Slaying Token, then slowly raised it, and chuckled at Mo You: "In my Great Thousand Pavilion, to touch the Demon-Slaying King of my Great Thousand Palace, Elder Mo You, do you think this is breaking the rules?"

As soon as the words were spoken, a golden light rose from the Great Thousand Pavilion, drawing everyone's attention to the dazzling golden token.

At the end of the token, three dark red characters exuded a peculiar aura of power.

Slay the Demon King!
At this moment, all the demon slayers inside the Great Thousand Tower were staring at the token with burning eyes, filled with awe.

Because they all knew very well what a Demon Slayer King truly meant in the Great Thousand Palace.

That was the true highest level within the Great Thousand Palace, a position even higher than that of elders, guest ministers, and branch lords. In the Great Thousand World, the Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace held a status in no way inferior to the leaders of those super powers.

The Demon-Slaying Token shimmered with dazzling golden light, and the Ninth Elder of the Futu Ancient Clan's aged face slowly turned grim, a solemn expression flashing across his dark, deep eyes.

"The Demon King Slayer? Him? I've only ever heard that the Great Thousand Palace currently only has Qin Tian as the Demon King Slayer. When did a second one appear?" Mo You's voice was hoarse and low.

He had just arrived in Saint Abyss City, but he was unaware of the changes on the Demon-Slaying Stele. Moreover, the Mo Yu in front of him did not seem like the Demon-Slaying King at all.

"That Lord Lu, have you gone mad? You actually acknowledged his identity as the Demon Slayer King? Since the founding of the Great Thousand Palace, when has there ever been such a weak Demon Slayer King?"

Mo Jin and Hei Hui's faces turned ashen, and they questioned each other in disbelief.

"Aren't you afraid that if this gets out, it will ruin the reputation of the Great Thousand Palace?! Can you bear that responsibility?!"

Upon hearing Mo Jin's stern voice, the Lord Lu smiled faintly and said, "The Demon-Slaying Order can only be enhanced by relying on the remnant souls of the extraterrestrial evil races."

Since he was promoted to Demon King slayer, it naturally means he made sufficient contributions, and I was merely following the rules.

"Hmph, it's nothing but a trick. I heard that the remnant soul of the Heavenly Demon Emperor was obtained entirely because our clan's ancestor put in the effort, and he just reaped the benefits!" Black Ash said with a gloomy face.

Upon hearing this, Lord Lu shook his head indifferently and said, "I don't care how he obtained the remnant soul of the Heavenly Demon Emperor, but I do know that the Demon Extermination Order recognizes this method and has elevated it to the level of Demon Extermination King."

After speaking, he glanced at Mo Jin and the other two, then turned his gaze to the Ninth Elder of the Futu Ancient Clan, and said calmly.

"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you all, I have reported this matter to headquarters, and the news from headquarters is that they have also approved it."

Wow!
Upon hearing this, a commotion erupted in the Daqian Tower, with many people staring at Mo Yu with bloodshot eyes.

Does that mean that from this day forward, a second Demon-Slaying King will truly emerge within the Great Thousand Palace?
In this way, Mo Yu's status in the Great Thousand Palace becomes ridiculously high, even surpassing that of someone like Lord Lu.

Even when facing the leaders of super powers and the patriarchs of ancient races, they are treated as equals.

Mo Jin and the other man looked extremely ugly, and the Ninth Elder's old face also appeared slightly gloomy.

If the headquarters of the Great Thousand Palaces truly recognizes Mo Yu's identity as the Demon King, then this matter has become incredibly complicated.

It should be known that the Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace holds a transcendent position in the Great Thousand World. Not to mention him, even if he encountered the Great Elder of their Ancient Floating Pagoda Clan, he could interact with him as an equal.

If the Ancient Buddha Clan really intends to forcibly capture Mo Yu today, then they will probably have to turn against the Great Thousand Palace.

The consequences would be extremely serious, as one can easily imagine.

It's possible that another Demon-Slaying King, Qin Tian, ​​will have to step in. This is a Saint-Rank Heavenly Sovereign!

Lord Lu stopped looking at them, turned around, respectfully handed the Demon-Slaying Token back to Mo Yu, then clasped his hands in a fist and smiled, saying, "Lord Lu Tong of the Great Thousand Pavilion of the Sacred Abyss Branch greets the Demon-Slaying King."

Mo Yu was taken aback, then smiled faintly and said, "Hehe, Lord Lu, there's no need to be so polite. Speaking of which, I've met Brother Qin Tian once before."

"Slaying the Demon King Qin Tian?" Upon hearing this, Lu Tong glanced at Mo Yu in surprise, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

If Mo Yu wasn't lying, then the headquarters' recognition of Mo Yu's identity as the Demon King slayer might also be partly due to Qin Tian's will.

In this way, the Demon King before us is indeed quite unfathomable.

Lord Lu smiled and flattered, "So the two Demon Kings know each other. It seems that my Great Thousand Palace will have another top expert in the future."

On the side, the Ninth Elder Mo You, Mo Jin, and Hei Hui looked even more unpleasant upon seeing this scene.

Mo Yu actually knows Qin Tian? In that case, they can't afford to provoke him so easily, otherwise they'll cause a huge mess that they won't be able to handle.

"What should we do?" Mo Jin's eyes flickered, then he looked at the Ninth Elder.

With a slight movement of the lips, a sound, enveloped in spiritual energy, secretly entered the latter's ears.

Upon hearing this, the Ninth Elder's expression remained unchanged. His withered, tree-like face twitched slightly, and finally, he slowly shook his head.

Regardless, Mo Yu now holds the identity of the Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace. If they were to forcibly seize someone in the Great Thousand Tower, they would be slapping the Great Thousand Palace in the face.

At that time, Daqian Palace will certainly not let it go.

The Ninth Elder's eyes flashed, then he looked at Mo Yu, his expression softening somewhat, and smiled.

"Here's what we'll do, Mo Yu. If you can come with us to the Ancient Floating Clan and hand over the Eight Floating Pagodas, that merit might bring you countless riches."

"You can choose any of the treasures from the Ancient Buddha Clan. My Mo Clan and Xuan Clan still owe you a favor, how about it?"

Mo Yu lowered his eyes, his face expressionless, and simply said, "Never mind, I don't need it."

The Eight-Part Floating Pagoda is one of the thirty-six peerless divine powers. There are very few treasures that can rival it, and even if there were, the Floating Pagoda Ancient Clan would be reluctant to take them out.

Moreover, Mo Yu could tell that this operation was entirely a private matter between the Mo Clan and the Xuan Clan, merely using the Futu Ancient Clan as a pretext.

Now, the Qing lineage is the strongest lineage of the Futu Ancient Clan, and Qing Yanjing has also obtained the Eight Futu. As a result, the Futu Ancient Clan will not be able to unite to deal with Mo Yu.

Seeing that Mo Yu remained unmoved, the Ninth Elder's expression darkened, and he said, "Mo Yu, don't be ungrateful. Do you really think that having the identity of the Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace will make my Ancient Pagoda Clan submit?"

"Hmph, Ninth Elder, what a big mouth you have! You know in your heart whether you represent the Ancient Buddha Clan or the Ink Clan. Do you really think you're invincible as a Celestial Supreme?" Mo Yu sneered.

Although the Ninth Elder is a Celestial Supreme with terrifying strength, he is not entirely without means of resistance. At worst, he can descend in his true form. Even if he cannot win, he will never lose!
Even if things fall apart, with Qing Yanjing and the identity of the Demon King in mind, Mo Yu is not worried that the Futu Ancient Clan will really retaliate against him.

The Ninth Elder's face twitched, his deep eyes fixed on Mo Yu, clearly furious.

Mo Yu had indeed hit a nerve. Right now, he represented the Mo Clan, not the Futu Ancient Clan. The gap between the two was like an insurmountable chasm, which was also the point where he lacked confidence.

Otherwise, even if it offends the Great Thousand Palace, he will capture Mo Yu alive!
Mo Yu remained indifferent to Mo You's resentful gaze, completely ignoring it.

The Ninth Elder's eyes were gloomy as he stared intently at Mo Yu.

After a long pause, he finally took a deep breath, the anger in his eyes gradually subsiding, and said, "I hope you won't regret this!"

After saying this, he turned and left without another word. (End of Chapter)
