Chapter 974: Persuasion to Surrender
Ten Thousand Blades Demon Sovereign and Judgment Demon Sovereign never imagined that this tiny human would dare be so arrogant.
One man daring to attack the Heavenly Demon Capital!
What a suicidal move that was!
Ask any world-class powerhouse—none would dare act as boldly as Ling Zhan!
Still, it had to be said…
This kid really did cause a lot of trouble for the Heavenly Demon Capital!
They had just investigated thoroughly.
All those vines had erupted from underground.
Hmm…
Those vine seeds must've been buried deep underground a very long time ago.
After all, the Ten Thousand Demons had occupied this region of the Ten Thousand Demons Continent for countless years.
No surface vegetation could survive.
Though Ten Thousand Demons miasma was highly contaminating, it couldn't reach deep underground.
So deep underground, there were still a lot of living vine plants.
And this was exactly what the non-specialist took advantage of.
Anyone with working eyes could tell he was using a Druid skill.
They just didn't expect this non-specialist's Druid skills to be this fierce!
According to some folks in the Demon Arrival Organization, this non-specialist's basic skills had seemingly been enhanced by some talent, making them ridiculously powerful.
Outwardly, they looked like F-tier skills, but in practice, their power rivaled SS-tier or higher.
Even now, the city's foundation was being relentlessly assaulted by those vines underground.
As if trying to flip the entire Heavenly Demon Capital.
"No way, we have to eliminate this damn non-specialist immediately…"
Ten Thousand Blades and Judgment Demon Sovereigns both realized how severe the situation was.
This non-specialist had way too many bizarre tricks!
If they let him continue, the Heavenly Demon Capital would eventually fall!
Those vines couldn't be cleared fast enough.
The only solution was to target the source!
Only by eliminating the non-specialist could the Heavenly Demon Capital return to stability.
With that in mind…
Ten Thousand Blades and Judgment Demon Sovereigns slowly extended their arms.
With a slight clench—
Buzz!!
A massive razor-sharp sword appeared in Ten Thousand Blades Demon Sovereign's hand.
A pitch-black battle axe appeared in Judgment Demon Sovereign's grip.
The two Demon Sovereigns' auras exploded like planetary destruction—BOOM!—pouring suffocating pressure in all directions!
The sky darkened with thunderclouds, lightning flashing!
The ground cracked and trembled violently!
The full weight of their Demon Sovereign might was unleashed.
"So this is Ten Thousand Blades and Judgment Demon Sovereigns?"
"The famed Demon Sovereigns who've slain world-class powerhouses!"
From a distance, the Demon-Slaying and Amethyst Legions watched, still able to feel the threat radiating from the Demon Sovereigns.
It's extremely difficult for a Professional to slay a Demon Sovereign.
But it's just as difficult for Demon Sovereigns to slay world-class powerhouses.
After all, those powerhouses aren't idiots. They don't just stand there waiting to be cut down.
So for any Demon Sovereign to have killed one—it spoke volumes of their strength!
Especially since these Demon Sovereigns also possessed devouring fusion techniques.
They could absorb defeated enemies, inheriting their memories, combat experience, talents, and skills.
So…
Don't underestimate a Demon Sovereign!
They carried countless fused talents and skills within them!
"You're Ling Zhan?"
Judgment Demon Sovereign looked down from above at Ling Zhan.
What puzzled him was…
Even with his full Demon Sovereign pressure unleashed, this guy wasn't reacting at all!
That's not right!
No matter how strong he is, he's still only level 180!
A fighter at that level—even a top-tier genius—shouldn't be able to ignore a Demon Sovereign's pressure!
At the very least, it should cause some fear, maybe not kneel, but enough to shake his spirit.
Yet this non-specialist…
Showed no change in expression from beginning to end.
Not even a flicker in his gaze.
As if the so-called Demon pressure had no effect on this mere level 180 human.
How could that be?
Even Ten Thousand Blades Demon Sovereign was slightly surprised.
Of course, they had no idea…
Ling Zhan now had the bloodline of the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons flowing in him!
When the Demon Arrival Organization claimed they had obtained that bloodline—it was likely fake.
Just propaganda.
But Ling Zhan's Lord of Ten Thousand Demons bloodline was 100% real.
Because it came from the system!
And the system doesn't do fakes!
So…
Their Demon pressure was laughable in front of Ling Zhan.
Like a housecat roaring at a tiger—how could the tiger even notice?
"Commander Ling Zhan, do you need us to come over?"
At that moment…
Aivina and Clodas urgently contacted Ling Zhan via transmission.
What else could they do…
Those were two legendary Demon Sovereigns!
Even against world-class powerhouses, they could fight two-on-one without losing!
And now both were deployed against Ling Zhan!
It would take at least four world-class fighters to suppress them!
How could Clodas and the others not be worried?
If something happened to Commander Ling Zhan, their entire army might be doomed!
"No need. I said before, just wait for my signal."
"Once I signal, follow the plan!"
Ling Zhan's voice was still steady and emotionless.
Even when facing two Demon Sovereigns.
"Boy! Speak! This Demon Sovereign is giving you a chance to surrender! Join the Ten Thousand Demons Army and you won't be mistreated!"
At that moment…
Judgment Demon Sovereign looked at Ling Zhan and spoke in a low voice.
Since the non-specialist seemed tricky to deal with, he figured they'd try diplomacy first.
How do the humans put it?
Courtesy before force?
Right.
Give you some face—if you want to pledge loyalty to the Ten Thousand Demons, then everyone's happy.
If you refuse, well, then they'd fight.
Of course…
Mainly because this non-specialist had value worth recruiting.
But…
Ling Zhan couldn't even be bothered to reply.
Buzz!!
Light flashed in his hand, and twin guns appeared, aimed coldly at the two Demon Sovereigns.
"If you want to fight, then fight. What's with all the yapping?"
Ten Thousand Blades Demon Sovereign let out a raspy laugh. "Good! I love tough bones like you! Makes it more fun to break them!"
Clang!!
He swung his sword, and it instantly let out a resonant hum!
