Chapter 816 – Eventually

After realizing that someone was using his Demon Sealing Flag without permission, Qian Chu immediately began looking for the culprit.

Qian Chu quickly noticed a particular figure amongst the spectators, as he was the only person in the entire coliseum to be wearing a mask.

However, when Qian Chu realized that Yuan was only a peak Spirit Lord, he immediately ruled Yuan out as the culprit.

After all, there was no way that some random Spirit Lord would be able to command the Demon Sealing Flag, much less control it so flawlessly.

After he received the Demon Sealing Flag, the time it took him to control the treasure was longer than the time it took him to become the 8th leader of the Demon Sealing Clan since the moment he joined the clan.

It took him almost 30,000 years of sweat and effort to control the Demon Sealing Flag, which is twice as long as it took him to become the 8th leader, so it would only be natural for him to rule Yuan out as the culprit.

If a mere Spirit Lord could control the Demon Sealing Flag, it would make a mockery out of his 30,000 years of effort.

Once Qian Chu ruled out Yuan as the culprit, he immediately returned to looking for the culprit, completely ignoring the situation between the Demon Emperor and the fighters.

Meanwhile, inside the Blood Sphere, right after being trapped inside, Yan Hara and the others tried to break the blood barrier but quickly realized that was impossible.

"None of you will be leaving my Blood Sphere alive today." The Demon Emperor laughed at their attempts to escape.

"Don't panic! The Grand Elders and the Demon Sealing Clan's Leader are still watching us! They won't let us die!" Yan Hara said to the others when she noticed the worried looks on their faces.

Yan Hara's words worked perfectly, as the others immediately calmed down after being reminded that they were not alone.

"You foolish demon. If we dared to release you, it means we are confident in sealing you away whenever we want! You demons might have ruled the Nine Heavens before, but time has changed! Demons are no longer a threat, and cultivators nowadays are far stronger than before! You demons wouldn't survive this era even if the Divine Paragon isn't here!" Suo Rengan said out loud.

However, instead of being provoked, the Demon Emperor laughed out loud and said, "The world may be different nowadays, but you demon sealers are definitely much weaker than before."

"Also, you should stop taking others' credit."

Suo Rengan frowned and said, "Huh? The fuck are you talking about? How am I stealing others' credit?"

"Do you really think humans defeated us, demons, back then? Negative. We didn't lose to humanity. We lost to a monster— the Bane of Demons, Divine Paragon! Although his demon sealing techniques are annoying and have the ability to seal us, the techniques alone would not be enough to defeat us!"

"Sure, there were a few prominent human cultivators that managed to kill a couple of demons back then, but they were all insignificant when compared to the Divine Paragon's achievement. Alone, he slaughtered more demons than all of humanity combined. Therefore, you should stop acting like demons were defeated by humans. It was a monster that defeated us— a single one." The Demon Emperor's voice sounded a little shaky when speaking about the Divine Paragon.

The demon sealers were left speechless by the Demon Emperor's words.

And before they could respond, the Demon Emperor continued to speak with a mysterious smile on its face, "However, now that the Divine Paragon is dead, it will only be a matter of time before demons rule the Nine Heavens again."

"That will never happen! Demons are almost extinct! Even if you gathered all of the demons that are still alive in this world, the best you would be able to do is run!" Jiang Ziya exclaimed.

The Demon Emperor started laughing again, "Sure, there may only be a few demons left in this world, but let me ask you this…"

"Where do we, demons, come from?"

None of the demon sealers were able to answer the Demon Emperor's question, so they remained silent.

"I will give you a hint. The Demonic Realm."

"Are you saying that more demons will come from the Demonic Realm? That's impossible! The Divine Paragon sealed it!" Yan Hara exclaimed.

"The keyword is 'sealed'." The Demon Emperor smiled.

"Once a demon is sealed, do they remain sealed forever? No, they will eventually break out of their seal. Even if it might take them 10 million years to do so, the seal is not permanent. If you truly want to get rid of a demon, you must destroy us."

"As for the Demonic Realm, it was only sealed, not destroyed, and even the Divine Paragon was not able to destroy it, so there will be a day when that seal goes away, and when that happens, the Nine Heavens will be ruled by demons once again!"

Upon hearing the Demon Emperor's words, Yan Hara refuted, "Even if the Demonic Realm is unsealed one day, it won't matter! The Divine Paragon killed most of the demons within the Demonic Realm before sealing it, and as far as I'm aware, you demons cannot procreate, so there won't be more demons as time passes!"

"Were you inside the Demonic Realm with the Divine Paragon? Did you witness him killing the demons inside? I don't think so."

"And while it's true that we cannot reproduce…"

The Demon Emperor suddenly showed them a chilling smile.

"There are actually ways for us to increase our numbers."

"What?!" Yan Hara and the others were terrified to hear such information. If what the Demon Emperor said was true, it would be catastrophic for the Nine Heavens once the Demonic Realm is unsealed!

The Divine Paragon sealed the Demonic Realm many millions years ago, so the demons would have plenty of time to increase their numbers!

"Don't think too much about it. You'll all be dead very shortly, after all.." The Demon Emperor began approaching the five demon sealers with a bloodthirsty smile on its face.
