CHAPTER 1500 LEAD THE WAY
Since Darren really needed to find out where the baby had really come from, he felt that it was
necessary to see the king of the purple devils. It didn't matter how strong and powerful the king was.
After all, this was the first clue he found since he entered the abyss.
The other purple devils grabbed Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar. The two didn't resist deliberately.
Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar were taken to a skeleton mountain.
There were many hexagonal caves there that looked like bee nests.
After passing through several safety inspections, Darren and Rule Soul Avatar were taken to one of the
nests.
"My king, we have good news for you. This time, we did not only catch a human child. We also took two
adult humans for you to enjoy," reported the purple devil commander happily. He was eager to receive
a reward from the king for doing such a good job.
Bang!
The Devil King staggered and fell down from his throne. He rolled a few times on the ground.
He looked so angry.
He jumped up and strangled the commander's neck.
"Who told you to bring adult humans here?" The Devil King's body was trembling, and he looked very
scared.
"My king, please forgive me. I didn't know that we can't bring adult humans back here."
Bang!
The Devil King smashed the commander's head with his claw.
"Damn it! What should I do now?" He was so anxious that he kept on spinning around. He didn't expect
that his stupid subordinates would force him to the brink of death. Human warriors were too powerful.
They could even kill a living beast. He would never provoke them.
This time, another purple devil came in and said, "My king, these are your delicious food." Since the
purple devil commander who had entered just now to report the good news hadn't returned for a long
time, this purple devil took the initiative to bring in the baby together with Darren and the Rule Soul
Avatar directly.
But when the Devil King saw Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar, he was so scared that he crawled and
hid under his throne.
"Sir, please forgive my subordinates," he said to Darren as he knelt down. All he did was beg for mercy.
He had no other choice. Humans were too terrifying. Offending them was no different from offending
the supreme emperor.
The purple devil was so shocked to see the Devil King's reaction. He was expecting to get a reward
from the king. He was surprised that the king had suddenly become so coward. What was going on?
How could their king kneel down and beg for these two ugly creatures' mercy?
The purple devil looked at the dead body of the purple devil commander and immediately realized that
something was wrong.
Without any hesitation, he threw the baby into the air and ran away. If he stayed there, he knew that he
would definitely die too.
Whoosh!
Before the purple devil could go out, the Rule Soul Avatar moved to grab his shoulder with one hand
and dragged him back. At the same time, Darren ran to catch the baby as he fell.
Crack!
With a crisp sound, the shoulder of the purple devil collapsed, purple blood gushed out from it.
"Are you the king? Get out from there!" Darren shouted coldly.
"Yes, I will go out."
The Devil King obediently rolled out from under his throne.
Since Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar deliberately hid the aura of their cultivation bases and the Devil
King was too afraid to detect them, he just thought that they were powerful warriors like the one he met
before.
"Sir, I'm sorry. This is all my fault. My subordinates have offended you because I didn't discipline them
well. But please, don't punish me," the Devil King said as he crawled on the ground, still trembling.
"Humph! How dare you come to our territory and hunt our people! Death is what you deserve," Darren
deliberately threatened the Devil King.
"I'm sorry. I really didn't know what my subordinates did. Please let me go." The Devil King continued to
beg for mercy.
Darren fell silent for a moment. Then he said, "It seems that you are not lying."
The Devil King was overjoyed. He thought that Darren was extremely powerful, but he never expected
that Darren would be so stupid to believe what he said and accepted his apology. It seemed that
humans were easy to fool.
"Yes, sir. This matter has nothing to do with me. I will immediately investigate what happened
thoroughly and give you an explanation," he said obsequiously.
"There's no need, you dirty creature. Since your subordinates have done something wrong, I will give
you a chance to atone for their sin. Are you willing to do that?" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
"Yes, sir. I am willing. I will do whatever you say."
"Then listen carefully. Since your subordinates have stolen the baby, you have to personally return the
baby to his parents. You also need to ask for their forgiveness. That is according to the rules of our
race."
Darren thought for a second and continued, "If you refuse to do it, you will desecrate our clan's
prestige. We won't have a choice but to torture and kill you. Do you understand?"
Darren's main reason was for the Devil King to lead the way for them. He didn't dare to use a force to
the Devil King because it was very likely that the Devil King would fight back with all his might. If the
Devil King fought with them, their real strength would be exposed. The Devil King wouldn't be afraid of
them anymore if he knew their strength.
The Devil King fell silent. He thought to himself, 'Are these two creatures trying to deceive me into their
territory, so they can kill me?'
But then, he also thought that with their extreme power, they didn't need to do it. They could already kill
him right there and then. So eventually, he believed that it really had something to do with their race's
dignity.
After all, he didn't want to die. Nothing was more important to him than life. He believed that these
humans would let him go as long as he behaved humbly and sent the baby back.
After thinking it over carefully, the Devil King concurred with Darren.
"Sir, thank you for giving me another chance. From now on, I will discipline my subordinates and never
allow them to do anything that can offend the dignity of your race," he said seriously.
Darren nodded slightly. "I think you are not a bad person. As long as you send the baby back and
apologize, you will definitely be forgiven."
"Yes, sir. Shall we go now?"
The Devil King took the baby from Darren and carried the baby carefully on his back and got ready to
set off.
He led Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar out of the skeleton mountain.
While on their way, Darren asked, "How did you know the location of our race?"
"Sir, you might not know, but I was caught by someone of your kind before, and I worked hard for him
for hundreds of years," replied the Devil King.
It was only then that Darren realized why the Devil King was very scared of them.
"So, how did you escape from him?"
"Sir, I didn't run away. My master let me go of his own will. But I was an unintelligent creature at that
time that I couldn't even remember what he looked like."
"I'm sure that what happened to you in the past is just a mistake. After you return the baby, our race will
definitely forgive you."
Darren tried his best to set the Devil King at ease and feel that his life was not in danger. He didn't want
the Devil King to be so anxious and do something desperate.
"Thank you so much, sir."
The Devil King led Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar through a passage.
He then said, "Sir, be careful. We are approaching the territory of the giant beasts."
"I know. Just go on." To avoid the Devil King from getting suspicious, Darren pretended that he was
quite familiar with the place.
"Oh, I forgot. Your race is not afraid of the giant beasts."
"Stop talking nonsense now. We have to hurry up. If the baby's parents get too anxious, they may kill
you before you can even explain."
The Devil King broke out into a cold sweat. He immediately shut up and quickened his pace.
"Rawr! Rawr! Rawr!"
All of a sudden, the ground from around a thousand kilometers away from them cracked. Then bone
spurs came out like pillars.
A giant creature slowly stood up. It was almost one million feet tall.
"Sir, that's the Nether Dragon King. What should we do?" The Devil King put on a long face. He knew
very well how terrifying the Nether Dragon King was.
