Invincible Snake Emperor

Chapter 643: Chapter 608: Entering the Demon Prison Again

Tu Xiao’an had no leads at the moment. He had hoped that taming the monkey and horse Battle Companions would give him some information, but unfortunately, he’d been too optimistic.

Whoever opened the Demon Prison’s gates had made a brilliant move, instantly putting all the imprisoned Demons in their debt.

If the Demons from the Demon Prison were to unite, they would be a formidable force, strong enough to take on an entire city head-on.

But there was one thing Tu Xiao’an didn’t understand. Since this person had done such a great "good deed," why didn’t they announce their name and let all these Demons be eternally grateful?

’An unsung hero? Someone who does good deeds without seeking any reward?’

’Yeah, right.’ Tu Xiao’an didn’t buy that for a second.

These days, it was all about self-interest. Even a three-year-old wouldn’t bother with something that didn’t benefit them.

Wencheng was descending further into chaos as Tu Xiao’an remained where he was, lost in speculation.

’Or could it be... that they opened the Demon Prison not for the Demons themselves, but for a single, powerful being?’

Just as he thought this, a realization struck him.

’The Six-eyed Golden Lion?’

’That’s it! Could they have opened the gates of the Demon Prison for the Six-eyed Golden Lion?’

If that Deep Mountain Demon King, with its fearsome bloodline and outstanding Talent, was recklessly set free, Wencheng would likely be annihilated.

"To the Demon Prison."

A sharp light flashed in Tu Xiao’an’s demonic eyes. He leaped onto the back of the Golden-winged Flying Horse and gave the direct command.

’No matter what, I’ll find out once I get to the Demon Prison.’

That was the epicenter of the disaster. Besides, Tu Xiao’an guessed that the Demon Prison had only just been opened, meaning the chaos was only just beginning.

The Golden-winged Flying Horse let out a cry to the heavens. Its magnificent, powerful golden wings unfurled and, with a single flap, it transformed into a resplendent streak of golden light, shooting off in a specific direction.

It moved too fast for the naked eye to follow.

There is an old saying: "For traversing the heavens, none rival the Dragon; for crossing the earth, none best the horse." This Golden-winged Flying Horse possessed the qualities of both—truly a divine steed.

In Wencheng, more and more Demons were running rampant. Cultivating Demons of the sea, land, and air appeared one after another. When Tu Xiao’an had first seen the Golden-winged Flying Horse, it had been a novelty. But now, not long after, he saw a flying fish soaring and wreaking havoc, screeching bizarrely. A pair of wings as thin as a cicada’s supported its massive body, allowing it to take to the skies and dive into the earth.

And it was a goddamn Rank 3 Fish Demon, no less.

The people of Wencheng were certainly getting an eye-opener. Today, they had seen every kind of ghoul and goblin imaginable. You could say they hadn’t lived their lives in vain.

For the Demon Prison of a single city to be home to so many hidden masters, it was clear that Wencheng held a special status.

Across all of Huaxia, any Demon guilty of the most heinous crimes was eventually imprisoned in Wencheng. As for why, very few people likely knew the reason.

’This plague of Demons must be resolved as quickly as possible. It absolutely cannot be allowed to worsen.’

As Tu Xiao’an sat on horseback, he saw countless rampaging Demons along his path. The entire city was filled with the miserable, helpless cries of its utterly defenseless citizens.

Those that had escaped the prison had all become man-eaters, devouring flesh and sucking marrow. Everywhere they went, they left behind only ruins and the sound of anguished wails.

Wencheng had already been split in two by the Fierce Beast attack, with one half becoming an occupied zone. Countless citizens had fled to the safety of the base area, thinking they had narrowly escaped with their lives.

The lucky ones had witnessed the Bai Town Snake King unleash his divine might yesterday, slaughtering all the Fierce Beasts. They had thought the disaster was over, but they never expected an even greater one to descend so quietly. Now, all sorts of terrifying Demons were appearing in the safe zone, where buildings had already collapsed and the death toll was incalculable.

Tu Xiao’an hadn’t planned on dealing with these Demons himself; he was going to leave them for the human Martial Cultivators to handle. But seeing and hearing the devastation, he couldn’t bring himself to be so callous.

After all, he was human first and a Snake second; he couldn’t forget his roots.

What had these people done to deserve this?

"Ice Seal!"

From horseback, Tu Xiao’an extended a finger and pointed at the strange, winged fish from afar.

VWOOSH!

A blast of deep blue frost erupted from his fingertip, striking the flying Fish Monster and freezing it solid instantly.

Being a Rank 3 creature, the frozen Fish Monster wouldn’t die immediately, but it would remain sealed in ice, its freedom restricted.

The vast majority of Wencheng’s citizens had become followers of him, the Bai Town Snake King. Tu Xiao’an wouldn’t hold back when it came to helping them.

After that, whenever Tu Xiao’an spotted a Rank Three Demon Spirit, he would instantly seal it in ice before flashing past, not lingering for a fight.

Time was limited; he had to get to the Demon Prison and see the situation for himself.

He desperately wanted to know which bastard was so eager to watch the world burn.

The Fierce Beast Era had already arrived. A stunt like this would only force humans and Demons to turn on each other completely.

What was this, if not a civil war?

This constant drain on the strength of both humans and Demons was a catastrophe, not a blessing.

The Golden-winged Flying Horse’s speed was nothing short of incredible. In a matter of minutes, Tu Xiao’an arrived at the outer perimeter of the Demon Prison.

In that short time, Tu Xiao’an had already sealed no fewer than twenty Rank Three Demon Spirits along the way, including two at the Pseudo Demon King Level.

Now, this place had become a gathering point for all sorts of Demons, as well as a battlefield for the Demon Management Bureau’s Awakened Martial Cultivators.

The Demons were trying to escape; the Bureau’s agents were trying to stop them.

Because any Demon that managed to escape from here was now running rampant through Wencheng.

Over thousands of years, far too many Demons had been locked away in this prison, and every one of them was the worst of the worst.

The Demon Management Bureau had been caught completely off guard and was now severely short-staffed.

The moment Tu Xiao’an arrived, he saw the Vice-Director. The old man was unleashing his power, single-handedly battling three Demon Spirits at the Pseudo Demon King Level in an earth-shattering confrontation.
