Chapter 811: Fiend King

Gu Qing Shan looked at the crying Xie Qi Fiend King and couldn’t help himself feeling speechless.

How did this guy… become a Fiend King?

At this point, the Xie Qi Fiend King had noticed Gu Qing Shan.

Jet black skin, handsome face, long horned tail.

Where did this guy come from, why does he look exactly like me?

The Xie Qi Fiend King froze briefly and couldn’t help asking: 『 Who are you? 』

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Take a guess”

The Xie Qi Fiend King scowled: 『 This king doesn’t have any siblings, what kind of stunt are you trying to pull? 』

Saying so, he stood up as his fighting spirit slowly rose.

Siblings?

This declaration made Gu Qing Shan change his mind.

Gu Qing Shan put a finger in front of his lips and lightly blew, gesturing with his eyes to the Xie Qi Fiend King.

『 Hm? 』the Xie Qi Fiend King was very confused.

———-apparently the other party has something secret he wanted to tell him so he held back from attacking right away.

Gu Qing Shan said with a serious expression: “Standing up in the middle of a kneeling punishment, aren’t you afraid you’d upset the powerful one within that palace?”

The Xie Qi Fiend King’s face became pale.

He hurriedly knelt back down on the washing board.

“…” Gu Qing Shan.

This guy can’t be saved anymore.

Oh well, I just need an identity to stay in the Fiend Realm anyways.

The Xie Qi Fiend King then turned back and asked in a low voice: 『 Tell me now, who exactly are you? 』

Gu Qing Shan sighed: “I feel ashamed to say this, but I’m your big brother”

The Xie Qi Fiend King angrily refuted: 『 Bullshit! I have no siblings! 』

Boom!!!

A giant hand came down from above and smacked the Xie Qi Fiend King into the ground.

The giant hand then scattered into countless flying swords.

Some flying swords flew out from the cluster and pierced through the Xie Qi Fiend King’s limbs, pinning him into the ground.

『 Aaaaaaa! 』the Xie Qi Fiend King screamed in pain.

Gu Qing Shan slowly walked towards the Xie Qi Fiend King and allowed the hundreds of flying swords to form a pair of wings behind him.

He was already a Void Beholder realm cultivator, his swordsmanship had also reached the Great Attainment stage of Sword Saint realm, vastly superior to the first time he invaded this Fiend realm.

“Tell me, do you have a big brother or not?”

Gu Qing Shan looked down at the Xie Qi Fiend King and asked with a calm voice.

The Xie Qi Fiend King loudly shouted: 『 I do! I do! 』

“Alright, call me big bro” Gu Qing Shan said.

『 Big bro! 』

“Again”

『 Big bro! My eldest brother! Forgive me! 』

Several guards came running out from the palace.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t look up.

Some of the flying swords on his back suddenly flashed and unleashed bright blue arcs of sword phantoms.

Each guard was hit by one of the sword phantoms and vanished, not leaving even flesh or blood behind.

Some notifications popped up on the blood-red UI

[Obtained Soul Points +10]

[Obtained Soul Points +7]

[Obtained Soul Points +9]

…

Gu Qing Shan glanced over the UI and silently nodded.

The [Demon King Order] and the War God UI were different.

For the War God UI, only killing an enemy similarly powerful or more powerful than himself would Gu Qing Shan earn any Soul Points.

If the enemy was too weak, the War God UI wouldn’t even bother to absorb Soul Points from the slain enemies.

But the [Demon King Order] was different.

To obtain enough Soul Points to evolve, it will resort to anything.

The commotion and smell of blood in front of the palace drew the attention of many fiends and devils.

More and more of them were starting to gather at this point.

Gu Qing Shan grabbed the void of space and caught the Chao Yin sword in his hand.

The sword lightly poked into the Xie Qi Fiend King’s throat.

“Tell me honestly, how many siblings do you really have?” Gu Qing Shan whispered.

As the Xie Qi Fiend King felt the cold metal sword at this throat, he shivered frightfully.

This guy is so ridiculously strong!

When in hell did I offend such a terrifying enemy?

It can’t be helped, my life is already in his hands, I have no choice but to lower my head.

Fortunately, the Xie Qi Fiend King was still a Fiend King who has been through thick and thin. This wasn’t the first time he fell into such a situation so he had ample experience in handling this.

The Xie Qi Fiend King squeezed out an awkward smile: 『 You’re right, I actually have a lot of siblings, both older and younger 』

Gu Qing Shan scowled: “Really? Why do I recall that you only have a single older brother?”

『 I, I remembered wrong, I only have a bigger brother 』the Xie Qi Fiend King hurriedly followed up.

Gu Qing Shan nodded in satisfaction.

But his sword poked a little bit deeper, almost piercing the Xie Qi Fiend King’s skin.

The Xie Qi Fiend King hurriedly shouted: 『 Big brother, you’re my blood brother, please forgive me! 』

“Hm, you couldn’t even recognize this older brother of yours. I’ll punish you by making you apologize to this older brother until I’m happy with it” Gu Qing Shan told him.

The Xie Qi Fiend King sighed in relief.

He was an expert in apologizing.

『 Big brother, we haven’t seen each other in so long, it’s normal for me not to recognize you right away. You don’t have to be angry 』

『 Big brother, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight, we’re going to drink ourselves to sleep. I’ll take a shot for each bit of irritation you feel, I definitely won’t refuse 』

『 Brother…』

…

The Xie Qi Fiend King began to bootlick Gu Qing Shan to the best of his abilities with a bright smile.

Quite a few fiends and devils have arrived and witnessed this.

And this number was only going up.

A lot of guards from inside the palace also came out and surrounded the two of them.

Soon enough, the fiends and devil understood something.

The Xie Qi Fiend King has a very strong older brother.

At this point, Gu Qing Shan put his sword away and crouched down in front of Xie Qi Fiend King: “I’m very curious about a certain thing”

『 Please go ahead, big bro 』the Xie Qi Fiend King replied.

“Why was it you, the younger brother, who obtained the Xie Qi Fiend Realm and not this big brother?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The Xie Qi Fiend King was surprised.

What an extremely appropriate and reasonable question.

But——-

I can’t come up with anything!

While the Xie Qi Fiend King was hesitating, his eyes met with Gu Qing Shan’s.

He saw countless surging sword images inside the other party’s eyes.

An eye technique?

The Xie Qi Fiend King’s heart sank.

As a Fiend King, he at least had the vision fitting of his position.

Techniques that use the eye as a trigger were not only extremely powerful, but they also simply couldn’t be avoided!

He finally understood just how powerful the other party was.

Even the one inside the palace might not be able to beat this guy!

At this point, the Xie Qi Fiend King was feeling a heavy omen of death.

Under this immense pressure, he was able to exert himself far more than he normally could and immediately answered:

『 Big brother, did you forget? The Xie Qi Fiend Realm was always yours, you only put me in charge to look after it for you while you invade the other Evil Realms! 』

Complete silence all around.

The fiends and devils exchanged glances.

Was there such a thing?

Gu Qing Shan nodded in satisfaction.

He asked again: “Inside the palace… do you really not know what’s going on inside right now?”

The Xie Qi Fiend King laughed deprecatingly: 『 That is the Fiendess’ freedom, I can’t do anything about t it 』

Gu Qing Shan looked down at him in contemplation.

He patted the Xie Qi Fiend King’s shoulder and spoke: “Little brother, you really are a disgrace to our family”

A sword gleamed.

The Xie Qi Fiend King’s head was separated from his body and rolled down to one side.

Before his death, the Xie Qi Fiend King was still confused.

Why did he kill me?

Obviously—— he could already tell that I’m only a puppet living every day waiting for death, it was meaningless to kill me, so why did he?

Regretfully, he would never know the answer to that question.

After the Xie Qi Fiend King died, a notification came into Gu Qing Shan’s ears.

He glanced at the [Kindling] UI.

Lines of blood-red text appeared on the UI.

[You’ve received the Xie Qi Fiend King’s recognition in front of everyone]

[You’ve obtained a new identity: the Xie Qi Fiend King’s big brother, you’ve joined the Xie Qi Fiend King’s faction]

[You killed the Xie Qi Fiend King]

[You obtained victory]

[Quest completed]

[The first function of the Kindling UI has been activated]

[From now on, you can use the primary System Shop]

As the lines of blood-red text reached this point, it all suddenly disappeared.

Followed by [Kindling]’s voice.

[Due to Your Excellency’s venerable status, the shop was closed immediately]

[The Order shall transform the first function into the Card Center, from now on, all functions will be displayed here]

[Please draw your first card, Your Excellency]

Gu Qing Shan silently asked: “How should I do that?”

[Kindling] answered him: [If Your Excellency trusts me, I shall draw it for Your Excellency. If Your Excellency wishes to do it himself, I shall arrange it]

Gu Qing Shan replied: “You do it”

[Thank you for Your Excellency’s trust, I have made meticulously preparations in accordance with Your Excellency’s personal Card Grade]

A Lapis card instantly appeared on the blood-red UI.

The card depicted a jet black armor surrounded by endless black smoke.

The armor itself carried a heavy sense of dignity and mystery.

Just by looking you could tell this was a good thing!

But since the Xie Qi Fiend King had just been killed, while being surrounded by fiends and devils on all sides, Gu Qing Shan didn’t have the time to take a look at the card.

He put the card away and stood up, telling the dead silent crowd of evil creatures: “Those only here to watch a commotion, back down or don’t blame me if you die”

The crowd of evil creatures hurriedly retreated.

——-this ferocious fiend killed his own brother without hesitation, who knows what other crazy things he will do?

However, some evil creatures were confident in their strength enough to not retreat.

Gu Qing Shan turned to look at the palace.

A wicked smile appeared on the jet-black face.

“Cruel Bone Devil King, when are you going to come out?”

Gu Qing Shan’s voice echoed across the entire area.

Indeed, as soon as the Xie Qi Fiend King began to beg for his life, he had already sensed a faint probing feeling.

This probing was mixed with a cruel, ominous, and ill intention.

『 Just by you? 』a mocking female voice called out.

The female voice then spoke: 『 It seems I’ll have to act my—– 』

Her voice suddenly stopped, as if someone held her back.

Gu Qing Shan coldly chuckled and said nothing.

A lazy voice then resounded from within:

「 Are you really his big brother? I don’t care what beef you two brothers have, but considering you have some strength, scram from this Fiend Realm and I won’t kill you 」

The spectating fiends and devils all became rowdy.

It really was the Cruel Bone Devil King!

So this world was already taken over by him, even the Fiendess became his woman.

But then, why did he not kill the Xie Qi Fiend King?

The evil creatures thought for a few seconds.

Ah…

That must be why…

The evil creatures exchanged knowing glances but didn’t say anything.

Cuckolding was always an interesting thing to do, and especially so for these evil creatures.

Everything makes sense now.

And also——–

No wonder this Xie Qi Fiend King’s big brother said that the Xie Qi Fiend King was a disgrace to their family.

No wonder he killed his own little brother!

“Scram from this Fiend Realm? No, that’s not how it works” Gu Qing Shan slowly declared.

With a single thought, the wings of swords behind his back opened wide and turned into rapid streaks of light.

The intense sword-infused wind rose all the way to the sky.

“Cruel Bone Devil King, leave your life and your soul right here, they are my food”

“I! Am the true Fiend King of this realm!”

Gu Qing Shan roared.
