Chapter 513 Come and Kill Me If You Can

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The spirit of the dead monkey approached Macaque King from behind and said in a creepy voice, “He is not dead. Zhao Bofu said that he failed and suffered a great loss.”

Then, he related every single detail about the beast tide in Blackstone Mountain to Macaque King.

“He is quite lucky.” Macaque King waved his hands and seemed bored. “Well, we can kill him next time… Wait, Zhao Bofu only tried to kill him once in Blackstone Ridge?”

The spirit said in a somewhat complicated tone, “Only once.”

“It is a long way from Blackstone Ridge to Macaque Mountain. Why didn’t he send demons to kill him on the way here?” Macaque King asked in surprise. Zhao Bofu was his most trusted confidant. He believed that Zhao Bofu could kill Li Ye in many ways.

The spirit took a look at Macaque King and said, “He sent someone to apologize, saying that he will not send any more demons to kill him.”

“Why?” Macaque King was confused.

The spirit said, “He did not tell me the reason. He only said that he deserves to be punished.”

“Is he out of his mind?” Macaque King asked in disbelief, wondering when Zhao Bofu started being so unreliable. He felt unhappy because it was hard to find another capable confidant like Zhao Bofu. But now this demon disobeyed him and did not even give him the reason, which meant that there were a lot of things going on.

“Never mind. I will ask him about this later.” Macaque King said irritatedly, “I can just send another cultivator to do this… Well, he’s already here? We must kill him down at the peak instead of here. We have to do it discreetly and the fewer demons know about it, the better it will be. I don’t want to be bothered by the Bull Demon King and the others!

Macaque King was walking along the passageway while he said it. It seemed as if he intended to have some fun.

The spirit said in a low voice, “I am afraid you can’t kill him without everybody knowing about it!”

“Why is that?” Macaque King stopped and looked back. “And can you stop talking to me while floating behind my back? I feel a chill which is very uncomfortable!”

The spirit did not answer the latter question. He said coldly, “He came here with over six thousand cultivators!”

“Six thousand!” Macaque King gasped, “How could he bring so many cultivators?”

The spirit said, “For some unknown reasons, the cultivators who went to Blackstone Ridge to kill the beasts followed him here!”

“Really? They came all the way here for a mortal?” Macaque King found it rather unlikely. It was the first time he heard of such things, which made him even more depressed. “Fine. Ask them to leave now. Not everyone can climb up to Macaque Mountain!”

“I am afraid not.” The spirit said after he fell silent for a moment.

“What?” Macaque King completely lost his patience and blazed, “What is going on now? Are they capable of doing anything? Is it due to my withholding my sword or are you guys just disobeying my orders?”

“I am afraid that is the truth. Do you know what they said when they climbed up?”

“Whatever they say will not change my mind!” Macaque King flailed his hands about in irritation.

“I am afraid that they can change your mind.” The spirit laughed creepily.

“Can’t you finish one sentence at a time? Don’t equivocate!” Macaque King sounded mad at the spirit.

The spirit took a deep breath and said, “The six thousand cultivators said that they will seek justice for Prince An and punish those who wanted to kill him. Their momentum is imposing and they seem about to overturn Macaque Mountain!”

“They really believe that they can do that?” Macaque King asked in stunned disbelief.

Wasn’t he the one who sent cutthroats to kill Prince An?

“How are they supposed to seek justice for Prince An? Are they declaring war using the six thousand cultivators?”

What should he do now? Obviously he could not kill under the eyes of six thousand cultivators, which was like the whole demon clan.

Macaque King said with a gloomy face, “How did he manage to get the services of six thousand cultivators? Is he a sage of the demon clan?”

Then he slumped on the ground and scratched his head. He could not figure out a way while his hair was in disorder. Then he had to look up to the sky and sigh, “Damn! He is only a mortal. How could he be so difficult to deal with? How did he manage to gather six thousand cultivators in such a short time and come here to look for trouble?”

“Your Majesty, Prince An’s envoy is already at the gate!” A monkey demon came and reported.

Macaque King looked at him and asked, “Li Ye’s envoy? What did he say?”

“They said that they are not here to look for trouble. They merely want to meet you and want you to help them find the one who sent the cutthroats. The lord of Panfeng City failed, but they believe that Your Majesty will be able to do this!”

The monkey demon added, “Besides, they are on the way here! The cultivators will not be able to stop them. Prince An of the Tang Empire said that they were invited by the seven sages… We dare not stop them. Your Majesty, please give us your order.”

Macaque King looked awful as if he just ate a bowl of flies.

He was at the level of Daluo Golden Immortal and he could kill a bunch of cultivators of Ground Immortal Realm without using too much effort. He never took Li Ye very seriously. Since there were so many Great Cultivators under his command, he did not think that it would be difficult for him to solve this problem.

When Bull Demon King and Monkey King invited Li Ye to their territory, Macaque King only regarded it as a joke. He thought that the desire of coming back to the Immortal Court had driven them insane since they put their hopes on an outsider.

As a wise Demon King, Macaque King believed that it was necessary for him to bring them back to reality.

They were all cultivators of the demon clan. One would flourish if the other flourishes and one would die if the other dies. If the demon clan were to battle with the Immortal Court, most of the cultivators under his command would die in vain.

That was why he needed to send demons to kill Li Ye, who was regarded as the savior of the demon clan and the chosen one. If he died before he could see the seven sages, Bull Demon King would be proven wrong.

However, that was not the biggest reason. Macaque King hated the Monkey king the most. He would be glad to destroy any of the Monkey King’s plans.

But now Li Ye was still alive and many of the cultivators under his command had died. He even lost the bear demon at Panfeng City. Macaque King felt like it was a slap in his face and his reputation as a demon king was totally ruined.

Moreover, Li Ye had the guts to come here and seek justice for himself, which obviously was an insult to him! Macaque King might make a meal of them, which was his usual way of doing things.

But now he dared not because Li Ye had six thousand cultivators with him! They were all from the demon clan and hundreds of them were Great Cultivators. He could not kill them all. And if he did that and the other sages knew about it, it would be the end of Macaque King’s territory.

“This is so damn irritating!” Macaque King pondered for a while and failed to think of a way of driving them out. He lurched to his feet and said heatedly, “Come. Let’s meet this man! I wonder if he really has the courage to do anything under my eyes!”

Since he had a ‘noble’ status, Li Ye walked through several gates without bothering about the monkey demons’ warning. He even bared his chest as a target for them. But the monkey demons only made way for him, and at the same time wondered why this man was so brazen.

The monkey demons were unable to stop Li Ye, but they tried to stop the cultivators behind him. Li Ye just stood in front of them and shouldered his way out, which made him seem to be a total rascal. He said he was the noble Prince An of Tang Empire, but now he seemed like a wily fox.

Li Ye saw Macaque King at his palace on the mountain.

All the buildings here were magnificent and none of them were less than 30 meters high. Even the porch was more than 15 meters in length. Besides, the steps leading to the main hall numbered over 900, which made it seem more imposing.

It seemed that although Macaque King did not like handling affairs, he cared about his prestige.

The hall was big enough to be a plaza and Macaque King’s throne was on a stand that was above nine golden steps. Each step was taller than a demon, since they were not designed for mortals.

Clad in golden armor, Macaque King sat high above them with one foot on the chair. Li Ye thought it was Monkey King when he first glanced at him.

However, in terms of status in the demon clan, Macaque King was no less respected than the Monkey King. So he deserved such an extravagant outfit.

“You are Li Ye?” Macaque King snorted coldly, trying to sound threatening. “Why did you come here and bring so many cultivators with you? I heard that you were very arrogant on the way here. Do you want to arm-wrestle with me?”

Li Ye laughed faintly, wondering why all demons liked arm-wrestling with others. But Li Ye would never arm-wrestle with a Golden Immortal.

He said, “What a petulant and ignorant monkey you are! I am Prince An from the Tang Empire. I came here because I was invited by the seven sages, which includes you. Now I am here and have not been treated as a guest. I don’t understand it. I am tired and hungry. Hurry, throw a feast for us and bring us some beauties!”

Macaque King was stunned at being called a petulant monkey. He never expected that Li Ye would be so unrestrained while talking to him, a Golden Immortal!

Angered, Macaque King slammed the handles of his chair and blazed, “You insolent filth! Shut your mouth! Where do you think you are at now? And who do you think I am? How many lives do you have to save you from your arrogance?”

Li Ye glimpsed at Macaque King and sneered, “Numerous demons have tried to kill me along the way, but I still made it here. Come and take my head quickly. If you dare not, then throw a feast for us!”

Li Ye looked like a man who really did not know the meaning of death.

Actually, Li Ye had been waiting for this for a long time. He had been angry since Macaque King set so many traps for him. Li Ye was still waiting while Macaque King sat on his throne and bossed him around, which made Li Ye feel cross since he was also a king.

‘You want to make me angry? You will only drive yourself insane!’

‘Kill me if you have the balls!’
