Chapter 1458 The Young Demon King Mengmeng

Chen Changqing and Zhao Feng were obviously in an awkward situation.

From the start until now, they had been mining for over two years.

They were quite miserable.

However, there was also hope in a life full of malice.

While mining, the two of them studied the occult arts taught by Zhang Han, and their progress was not slow.

It was a pity that they were controlled by others and did not have strong strength, so they could only keep digging here.

“Huh?”

Zhao Feng suddenly exclaimed in surprise, “Brother Qing, I dug a pit. This is an ancient crystal stone mine. Logically speaking, there should not be a pit.”

“Let’s go in and see what’s there.” Chen Changqing hesitated and looked around. The leader didn’t notice them, so the two quickly got in.

The pit was about one meter in diameter, and they had to move forward with their bodies bent.

“Let’s seal off the exit first. We can’t use our divine senses to detect this pit. Let’s investigate the situation first. If there’s any danger, we’ll retreat,” Chen Changqing said.

Hearing what he said, Zhao Feng quickly sealed off the exit.

The two of them walked in and looked down at an angle of about 60 degrees. The diameter of the pit was getting bigger and bigger. Gradually, the two of them could walk side by side, and there was no danger.

After they advanced for two hours, the diameter of the pit reached more than ten meters.

“Yin winds are blowing. There may be Yin creatures here.”

Zhao Feng lowered his voice.

“We need to be careful.”

Chen Changqing was extremely cautious.

“There are more pits here. Which direction should we take?”

There was a fork in the road in front.

“The pits on the left and right sides seem to have existed for a very long time. This very small pit in the middle seems like it’s been newly dug.”

“Let’s take the middle one.”

After some discussion, they continued to walk in.

“This seems to be a big tomb.”

“A tomb underneath the spirit crystal mine. Could it be… that this ancient spirit crystal mine is a burial object?”

“Looks like we need to be more careful.”

“Once something goes wrong, we’ll immediately withdraw.”

“Logically speaking, there should be other passages in a big tomb that might allow us to escape this place.”

“…”

Gradually, they went deep into the great tomb.

The surrounding temperature was getting lower and lower, and when they exhaled, vapor could be seen.

They also found some stone rooms around, but there was nothing in them.

Chen Changqing said in confusion, “I feel like this place has been robbed.”

Right then, a low and suppressed voice suddenly came from ahead, which startled them.

After listening carefully, they found that the voice was a little familiar and full of surprise.

“Emperor Qing, Zhao Feng, come and save me now.”

“Who is it?” Zhao Feng asked loudly.

“Cut the crap. Come here, I can’t hold on any longer!”

Hearing the urgent voice, Zhao Feng was stunned. “It seems to be… Ye Longyuan?”

“Yes, it’s me. Come in now. Hurry!”

Ye Longyuan’s extremely anxious voice was heard again.

The two didn’t waste any time and rushed forward.

Ye Longyuan was holding the lid of a coffin with both hands.

The coffin was black and seemed to have an opening. At the opening, there were two bony claws, which were about to push open the lid of the coffin. It seemed that the one inside was about to come out, while Ye Longyuan was trying his best to push to close the lid. He was drenched in sweat and was obviously exhausted.

Ye Longyuan said in a hurry, “Hurry, come and help me.”

Zhao Feng and Chen Changqing looked at each other, walked over, and pressed Ye Longyuan’s shoulders.

Ye Longyuan was dumbfounded.

“I asked you to push the lid of the coffin. Why are you pushing me?”

“We don’t know if the coffin is dangerous or not, so we’d better push you instead.”

“Are you trying to get me killed?” Ye Longyuan said angrily, “It’s not dangerous. Push the lid now. If he comes out, we will be in danger.”

This time, the two did not hesitate and directly pressed the lid of the coffin.

“It’s so hard to push it!”

The two of them instantly felt an enormous force that was resisting them.

However, with their help, the lid was pushed back.

...

Clack!

The two white bony claws retracted as the coffin lid was returned to normal position.

“Phew.”

Ye Longyuan was so exhausted that he sat down on the ground and said, “Oh my god, I was scared to death. One can’t touch the pitch without being defiled. I almost died this time.”

“What’s in the coffin?” Zhao Feng was confused. “How did you get here?”

“The thing inside is terrifying… Even if I tell you about it, you won’t be of my help. You’ve never seen it before.” Ye Longyuan squinted at them and said, “What are you doing here? Mining? Wait, you came to the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven to mine?”

Zhao Feng and Chen Changqing both looked a little embarrassed.

“We’re here to experience life,” Chen Changqing said tentatively,

“Well, you can continue to experience it. I’m leaving.” Ye Longyuan stood up.

“We’ll go together.”

Chen Changqing put his arm around Ye Longyuan’s shoulder and exerted so much force that Ye Longyuan’s bones almost broke.

...

How could Chen Changqing and Zhao Feng let go of this hard-earned opportunity to get out?

Zhao Feng put his arm around Ye Longyuan’s neck.

“Hey, I’m so glad to see you here. We’re homies. Come, let’s get together.”

“Be gentle. Damn it. Be gentle…!”

Two hours later, they followed the pits and came to a place halfway up a mountain.

Ye Longyuan took out his aircraft. They took off and entered a king vessel a little farther away in the universe.

“Let go of me now. I’m going to be strangled to death by you two,” Ye Longyuan said with displeasure.

The two of them immediately let go.

After a moment of silence, Chen Changqing cupped his hands and said, “Thank you.”

“You really helped us a lot. We owe you a favor.” Zhao Feng also thanked Ye Longyuan.

“Well, don’t mention it.” Ye Longyuan said, “If we were on Earth, I wouldn’t have bothered to talk to you two. But after I got out of Earth, I would somehow be nostalgic.”

He got a little emotional.

No matter what grievances they had with each other on Earth in the past, they would always smile or even drink together when they met.

While they were in a distant Star Area, they would still see each other as homies and didn’t mind the grudges they had.

Of course, those with deep hatred were an exception.

“I guess you two are looking for Devil King Zhang, right?

“He’s on the Heavenly Double Star.”

Ye Longyuan looked reverent and said, “Devil King Zhang is so cruel that he can get everything he wants wherever he goes. You may not have heard that he set up a bounty in the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven. The ones who find his people will be rewarded with 100 million crystal stones for each person. Eh? I just found two, didn’t I? If so, I won’t have much money to owe.”

“We found you, and we even saved you,” Zhao Feng said.

“Let’s not talk about this for now. I’ll take you to the Heavenly Double Star. Then, I’ll pay off a part of my debt first. Here are one million crystal stones.” Ye Longyuan took out a Space Ring casually and handed it to Zhao Feng. He said proudly, “As for the rest of my debt, I’ll keep owing it. I’ll be of great importance to Devil King Zhang. When he becomes famous in the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven in the future, I’ll tell the others that I owe him some crystal stones, and no one will dare to kill me. Hahaha.”

“Well, what a great ambition. I wish you success.” Chen Changqing nodded.

Both he and Zhao Feng were very happy at this time.

They finally came out of the mine and could find Zhang Han and the others.

“Do you know about what happened to Feifei and Chen Chuan?”

“Also, Mengqi was already pregnant.”

“There are dozens of people on the Heavenly Double Star. They should be there. I don’t know. You can go and see if they’re there by yourselves. The journey will take about seven days.”

Chen Changqing and Zhao Feng set off on their way back with incomparable excitement and uneasiness.

At the same time.

Zhang Han’s group set off on their way back to Earth.

There weren’t that many people on this trip.

Chu Qingyi and Mu Xue headed to the Vast Heaven Star. They wanted to go back to their sect and stay there for a while.

After all, Mengmeng would soon go to the Vast Heaven Star to travel.

This time, more than a dozen people, including Liu Qingfeng, Zhang Li, Liang Hao, and Rong Jiaxin, were going back to Earth.

The others would be temporarily staying at the Chu Family’s place.

Grand Master Chu also wanted to go to Zhang Han’s hometown to visit it, but after thinking about it, he gave up the idea. He planned to stay in the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven to expand the reward scale and continue to look for the rest of Zhang Han’s group.

The Thunder Snake that Zhang Han was taking disappeared into the void.

He sensed the Seven-star Sword and headed for the entrance of the secret realm flowing in the Domain of seven Desolations.

It could be said that they were returning the same way they came.

Zhang Han found the Ancient Road of Starry Sky in the Domain of Seven Desolations in the secret realm.

When the spaceship entered it, Zhang Han could feel that with the improvement of his state and strength, he got to control the basic rules of the world more easily.

“There are so many demons around.”

“Oh my god, they look so scary.”

It was the first time for Zhang Guangyou, Mengmeng, and the others to take the Ancient Road of Starry Sky.

The screen captured the scenes around the spaceship. There were countless demons hidden in the darkness.

“The Domain of Seven Desolations is my territory. These things don’t dare to act rashly while I’m around.”

Zhang Han smiled and activated his mind.

The demons retreated for ten thousand meters and made way for the crowd.

It was difficult for others to pass through the Ancient Road of the Starry Sky, but Zhang Han’s group was able to do so with ease.

They reached the exit, which was in the depths of the Devil Palace.

Coincidentally, the remaining five Great Demons were discussing something in the palace.

Where did the Demonic God go?

Originally, they could still sense his whereabouts, but now they seemed to be no longer able to do so.

“In the past, Demon Lord Tonghai was able to contact the Demonic God. Now, who can?”

“The Demonic God is dead.”

A light voice suddenly spread out.

Under everyone’s gaze, a spaceship quickly appeared from the Ancient Road of Starry Sky.

Hearing that voice, the faces of all the people present changed greatly. They knew that it was that horrifying master, Zhang Hanyang, they had met before.

The five Demon Lords were stunned at first.

But then, they all bowed and said respectfully, “Demon Overlord, you’ve finally returned.”

“Demon Overlord, you have to uphold justice for us! We’ve all been bullied.”

“There’s an old monster in the Demonic God Temple. He’s very fierce. We’ve all suffered a little.”

“Demon Overlord, we have been waiting for you for a long time.”

After hearing these words, Zhang Han and the others were all stunned.

Their faces were full of confusion.

“When did Daddy become the Demon Overlord?” Mengmeng asked, looking even more dazed.

“Demon Overlord…” Zi Yan’s mouth trembled slightly. “Is he going to live up to the title of Old Demon Zhang?”

“That’s just nonsense!”

Zhang Han coughed softly and said discontentedly, “Don’t call me that. I’m not your Demon Overlord. Your Demonic God attacked me in the Devil Palace and has already died.”

Rumble!

When the five Demon Lords heard the news, they were shocked at first, and then they came to a sudden realization. After that, they became confused and finally filled with reverence.

They all fell to their knees and kowtowed.

“Greetings, Demon Overlord. We wish to serve you forever.”

“We are willing to offer up our main souls.”

“We are willing to…”

Clatter!

The high-level officials, the Demon Monarchs, and the Demon Generals around also prostrated themselves on the ground.

They presented their main souls to Zhang Han.

“What…”

Zhang Han’s face was slightly stiff.

“How could they be so active?

“Furthermore, I don’t want to be the Demon Overlord.”

After he thought about it carefully.

“Alas, forget it. Fine. The Demon Overlord it is then.”

Zhang Han compromised.

He waved his hand and said, “In that case, I shall be the Demon Lord of the Devil Palace. You don’t need to change your way of doing things. Just guard the Ancient Road of Starry Sky for me.”

“Wonderful! Demon Overlord, please cast the spell now,” the five Demon Lords said in unison.

They wanted their main souls to be controlled by the Demon Overlord. Although their lives and deaths would be under his control, in fact, there wouldn’t be much difference even if he didn’t take their main souls since the Demon Overlord could kill them with a snap of his fingers.

For example, the Stone Demon King had been killed with a single finger strike from Zhang Han.

And now, after being controlled, they would become his subordinates. This was a situation that the Demon Lords, the Demon Generals, and the Demon Monarchs were delighted to see.

Zhang Han was not very willing to accept their main souls.

But it was hard for him to decline their generous intentions.

“Mengmeng, you’ll cast the spell,” Zhang Han said.

“Me?”

Mengmeng was stunned.

Zhang Han secretly told her how to cast the spell via Designated Voice-transmitting Technique. Mengmeng learned it for a few minutes.

It made the Demon Lords and the others extremely nervous.

Fortunately, their main souls were finally controlled.

Zhang Han didn’t have soul sense, so he couldn’t cast this kind of restriction spell. Even if he could, it would be troublesome. But Mengmeng was different. She could just use a soul-sense occult art and finish the spell with a seal.

“Greetings, Young Demon Lord.”

Mengmeng put her hands behind her back and said with a bland look, “Call me Young Demon King.”

She always looked a little cute when she was pretending.

“Greetings, Young Demon King.”

The Demon Lords and the others completely bowed their heads.

At this moment, they were overjoyed.

“Present the precious treasures of our clan to them now!”

“No need for that. Keep them here for now. Next time we come to visit, we’ll check those treasures,” Mengmeng said. “We still have something to do, so we’ll leave now.”

Swoosh!

The spaceship turned into a streak of light and quickly left the area of the Devil Palace.

“We made it!”

The oldest Demon Lord laughed out loud and said, “The Demonic God wasn’t very nice to us. He’s not even as good as the Demon Overlord. It is said that the Demon Overlord, Zhang Hanyang, treats his people very well.”

“Now that the Demonic God Temple has a Great Devil King, we have the invincible Demon Overlord, and our Demon Clan will still dominate the world!”

“Humph! Inform the whole world that our Demon Overlord, Zhang Hanyang, the king, has returned!”

“Hahaha, this is wonderful. Let’s drink 3,000 glasses of wine today!”

“…”

The reaction of the Demon Clan made Zhang Guangyou and the others feel like they were in a dream. They seemed to be in a hurry to present their main souls to the Demon Overlord, Zhang Han. Mengmeng, the Young Demon King, controlled their lives and deaths.

“It’s not strange that they have already considered this matter while the Devil King is pressuring them.”

Zhang Han smiled and took out the Seven-star Sword. After traveling for a moment, he cut through the void and created an exit. The spaceship flashed and disappeared.

The spaceship showed up in the Chaotic Region.

The environment here was even more terrible.

But with the Seven-star Sword, Zhang Han would always be able to find a relatively easy way to control the power of stars.

In the Sea Dragon Star Area.

“We’ve finally returned.”

Liu Qingfeng sat on the throne of his office on the Dragon Base Star once again.

“Gather all the high-position officials to have a meeting.”

The meeting only lasted for two hours.

“I didn’t expect things to go so well here.”

Liu Qingfeng was pleasantly surprised. He didn’t expect that the Heavenly Group had already become the ruler of the Sea Dragon Star Area.

Even an insignificant expatriate could receive the highest reception treatment while visiting other sects.

Liu Qingfeng was a man with foresight.

The punishment system was very decisive and straightforward. In the beginning, some people wanted to seek personal benefits, but later, thousands of middle-level officials were punished, and this kind of chaos gradually stopped.

The prosecution system of the Heavenly Group was also relatively complete. As long as one had enough evidence and went through the reporting procedure, the alleged wrongdoer would either die or be disabled.

Therefore, in the current situation, when people asked for help, they didn’t dare to give gifts. The key was that the middle and high-level officials of the Heavenly Group didn’t dare to accept gifts. They all knew that the system was ruthless and that the decision-maker wasn’t around. If they were wanted or judged, they would be dead.

“Next, we’ll establish our force in the Heavenly Dragon Star Province and the 13 Star Areas around it. We’ll infiltrate all the Star Areas.”

Liu Qingfeng began to give orders again.

Zhang Han and the others did not continue to stay there. Instead, they went to the Lost Continent.

They rested for a day on the Dal Star, Mengmeng’s recreational planet.

The next day, under Mengmeng’s control, they entered the Space Passage. There was the Screen Waterfall, Clear Stream, Silver Sea, and Boundless Sea. According to the usual route, when they stepped on the land in the Ancient Mine, they could see a lot of members of the Dark Shadow Clan every once in a while. There were also humans and even built houses.

These people seemed to be waiting for something here.

When the spaceship stopped, Zhang Han and the others got off. “Hey, why did you come here to build houses?” Mengmeng asked.

“We’re waiting for someone. What… a spaceship? Who are you?” The faces of the people below changed.

“You must be Princess Mengmeng since you came from the Boundless Sea. Princess Xiaonao asked us to wait here.”

“Xiaonao? Where is she now?” Mengmeng asked.

“She’s at the Black White Palace.”

“I see,” Mengmeng replied. The Heavenly Pearl appeared in her palm.

“Huh?” Mengmeng was stunned. “Daddy, I think there’s something wrong.”

“What is it?” Zhang Han’s eyes narrowed.

The Heavenly Pearl was surrounded by a faint mist.

“I, um-huh…”

Mengmeng paused. After thinking for two seconds, she still could not figure out how to use the Heavenly Pearl, so she said, “I’ll bring Xiaonao over and ask her about it.”

Clatter!

Mengmeng casually conjured up a Space Portal and entered it in a flash.

About two minutes later, the Space Portal appeared.

Mengmeng, Yue Xiaonao, and Lisa walked over.

“You’ve finally returned,” Lisa said with a smile.

“We came back from a distant place. Why are you here?” Zi Yan asked in confusion.

“When the space was devouring people, we were teleported to the Ancient Mine.” Lisa gave a brief account of what had happened. “There were changes on the Saint Warrior Planet. The connection between the Ancient Mine and the worldlets has disappeared.”

“My dad also said that the passages between the worldlets and the secular world have also disappeared. It’s not just one passage, but all the passages. Every area has been separated. It seems that there have been some changes in the secular world. My dad is trying to solve them. He has been there for more than two years and hasn’t come back yet,” Yue Xiaonao said.

“There are changes in the secular world, so we can’t go back?” Zhang Guangyou asked.

“My dad said that when Mengmeng comes back, she can control the Heavenly Pearl to open the passages,” Yue Xiaonao said with a grin. “Anyway, it’s not a big deal. It doesn’t matter.”

“I’ll have to think about it.”

Mengmeng looked at the Heavenly Pearl in her palm and was lost in thought.

After a moment of pondering, her eyes lit up.

“Ah, I remember!”

The Heavenly Pearl suddenly began to rotate under Mengmeng’s control.

As it rotated, the faint white mist swirling around the pearl slowly dissipated, making the pearl’s original form particularly clear.

All of the passageways were opened again.

This was a situation that even Yue Wuwei couldn’t control, but as the Heavenly Lord, Mengmeng could.

Mengmeng said with a smile, “Alright, let’s go back.”

The spaceship set off once again.

It soon arrived at the Kun Xu World.

Just like how it was in the past, there was nothing unusual about the Kun Xu World. It was very peaceful.

Zhang Han, however, frowned.

“Something’s not right.

“The suppression in the Kun Xu World has been reduced. One can display the cultivation level of the Peak Stage of the Elixir Realm here now. This place is now the same as the King’s Domain and the Kunlun Immortal World.”
