Douluo Continent: Starting from Leading Ferocious Beasts to Transform into Demons

Chapter 55 Purple Princess's Body Going Numb

"Healing crystals? Didn't I already give you ten? What, isn't that enough?"

As she spoke, Brigitte took out a healing crystal and handed it to Murasaki.

Kong Deming glanced at it and saw a green light shining in the crystal-clear rhomboid shape. He wondered how such a thing was made, as it did not leak out even a trace of its aura.

"Hehe, didn't Big Eyes want to steal that little ice silkworm from the Star Dou Great Forest before? I couldn't beat him back then, so now I have to get my revenge."

Zi Ji embraced Bi Ji beside her, a smile appearing on her beautiful face, which looked somewhat... lewd?

"When the time comes, I'll kick that big eyeball like a ball, beat him severely, then heal him with a healing crystal, and then beat him severely again, over and over again."

Kong Deming felt a chill run down his spine as he listened from behind. He hadn't expected that even spirit beasts weren't so innocent, and this one was even more ruthless.

"Aren't you afraid of becoming mortal enemies with the Evil Emperor?"

A faint smile appeared on Bi Ji's face. Although she said that, she was quite pleased inside, after all, she was also a soul beast of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"What are you afraid of? We have the closest relationship with Lu Shi. When the time comes, we'll have the advantage of being close to him. Big Eyes will never beat me."

Zi Ji let out a silvery laugh. She was naturally confident; even if things went wrong, Di Tian would always be there to back her up.

"Besides, if I could beat Master Lu, I would have knocked him unconscious by hitting him on the back of the head long ago. After all, Master Lu is so good to us, he is strong, and he is not ugly. He would be a great partner."

Zi Ji chuckled. She had had this idea for a long time, but unfortunately, she just couldn't beat them.

Kong Deming behind him had long since shut down his hearing; he was deaf and couldn't hear anything.

"You bastard..."

For a moment, Brigitte didn't know what to say. Perhaps because of her gentle nature, she never thought of knocking Lu Wu unconscious and forcing him to be her partner.

"Moreover, Master Lu must know what we are talking about. Since he hasn't punished me, it means he acquiesces."

A mirror materialized before Zi Ji, reflecting her stunningly beautiful human form. Her perfectly rounded figure was encased in purplish-black armor, and anyone who glanced at her would exclaim that she was a rare beauty.

Boom!

A bolt of purple lightning struck her, but the force was not strong; it only made Zi Ji feel numb all over, and the mirror in front of her could not be maintained and dissipated.

"Please forgive me, Professor Lu!"

Biji hurriedly bowed to the open space in front of her, her mind flashing back to the time when she first met Master Lu and Xiong Jun was struck by lightning.

"Please forgive me, Professor Lu!"

Murasaki quickly regained control of her body and began to bow, but there seemed to be residual lightning in her body, and the tingling sensation made Murasaki feel weak in the legs.

Kong Deming couldn't hear what had happened, but he saw a bolt of lightning strike the soul beast that had just spoken, and it mimicked the two demons' bows in a similar manner.

There was no sound, as if the thunder just now was just their imagination. Only the slightly trembling legs of Zi Ji, whose eyes were filled with autumn water, proved that something had indeed just happened.

"That'll teach you to talk nonsense."

Biji chuckled softly, and a shimmering green light appeared on her hand, flying to Ziji's body and relieving the tingling sensation.

"Sigh, it seems that Master Lu cannot accept me for the time being, but I believe that nothing is impossible in this world, except for the existence of a demon in the heart. One day I will be able to knock Master Lu unconscious."

Zi Ji raised her hand to cheer herself up, while Bi Ji subconsciously glanced at the sky and, finding no movement, breathed a sigh of relief.

With a hint of disappointment, Zi Ji withdrew her gaze: "Let's hurry up and go. I can't wait to beat that big-eyed guy up."

Brigitte smiled and followed in Zi Ji's footsteps, with Kong's follower flying behind at a distance.

They separated once they reached the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire. Zi Ji was to go to the Demon Forest to subdue the Evil Emperor, while Bi Ji was to turn the entire Sun and Moon Empire into a kingdom of demons.

"Lady Brigitte, what will be the final effect of this magic circle? Will everyone's bloodline be randomly changed?"

Kong Deming bowed and asked, afraid that the other party might be dissatisfied and refuse to answer.

"Actually, either way is fine. It can be completely random, or it can be fixed that a certain area is all of the same bloodline."

Biji answered softly, for she had always believed in the equality of all life, especially since the other party was about to join their demon race.

"Will their descendants inherit this bloodline?"

Kong Deming decided to pour out all his doubts at once.

"Probably? I'm not sure either. It's okay if it's not there; we can just use an array to convert it later."

Brigitte gently shook her head and patiently answered Kong Deming's questions.

"Could you please, Your Excellency, ensure that my royal family is entirely composed of powerful bloodlines?"

Kong Deming felt his face burning. How old was he, still bowing down and begging for demons for the empire?

"Is it an attempt to maintain dominance?"

Feeling Bi Ji's gaze fall on him, Kong Deming trembled. It was certainly not in the interests of the soul beasts to have the royal family rule for so long, but for the sake of the royal family and the old emperor's entrustment, he had no choice but to ask.

"That's right, we want to fight for this opportunity."

Kong Deming said this almost reluctantly, but he did not try to persuade him by citing the reason of "convenience in maintaining imperial order".

They were barely clinging to life, and if they were to say something like that, they might just wipe out the royal family the next second to see if things really couldn't be stable.

"Of course. Since you have come of your own accord, this is a reward for you. I will modify part of the formation at the location of your palace. Just let me know when you have chosen your bloodline."

Biji was naturally willing to give Kong Deming a chance. Anyway, it wouldn't affect the overall situation. It wouldn't hurt to give him some benefits so that the absorption of the demon race could go more smoothly. If he really had ulterior motives, she could just wipe him out and replace him with a more sensible one.

"Thank you, Lady Brigitte."

With the old emperor's wish fulfilled, Kong Deming breathed a sigh of relief.

Before long, they flew over the palace. All the obstacles along the way were bypassed by Kong Deming, who had been very active recently and many people had become familiar with his face. With the addition of the token, they were able to enter directly.

When Brigitte met the old emperor that Kong Deming had mentioned, just as he had said, the old emperor was already surrounded by death energy and was not far from dying.

Brigitte didn't pay much attention to human birth, aging, sickness, and death; she immediately wanted to start setting up the formation.

However, Kong Deming suggested that all the level nine soul masters should pay their respects to Bi Ji. After all, the demon race would be joining the demon race in the future, and they should also get to know their superior race.

Biji did not refuse. It would only take a short while, and she could use this time to set up the palace's formation, which would also solve one of her small requests.

"Master Kong, I wonder if...?"

The old emperor looked at Kong Deming expectantly, then began to cough again.

Kong Deming didn't say much, but still mobilized his bloodline power, and a thick layer of silver hair appeared on his body, with the silver moon mark on his forehead shimmering slightly.

"Lady Brigitte has agreed to allow the royal family to choose a bloodline for conversion. Of course, it is also uncontrollable for other people or forces within the territory to develop powerful bloodlines."

"It's alright. My royal family has already surpassed most people at the starting line. If we still can't maintain the royal family's status with abundant resources, top-level martial spirits, and powerful bloodlines, then we should voluntarily give the throne to someone else, just like the Dai family of the Star Luo Empire."

The old emperor tried to speak, but the phlegm in his throat made his speech somewhat unclear.

"May the sun and moon bless us, may the heavens bless our royal family. The fate of the empire has reached a turning point. Whether it will be completely annihilated by humans or ruled by the demon race in the future, it is all up to you, my lords."

The old emperor coughed violently, his face turning ashen, but his eyes grew brighter and brighter. He would never submit to any so-called god, especially a shameless one!
