As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1727 - 450: Slaying One Demon God Brings Immense Wealth, the Second Fierce Beast in the Ten Fiend Ink Painting Should Be a Black Ox [Monthly Ticket]...

Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
Li Che, disguised in the Bull Demon Mask, slays the Heavenly Crane Demon God at Qi Tian City's gate, unleashing a torrent of demon energy and blood rain that shocks the other guarding demon gods. The Black Bull Demon God Venerable erupts in fury, confronting Li Che with immense pressure from its Two Calamities realm power, but ultimately calms and permits entry into the city. Inside, the Black Bull's avatar approaches Li Che, proposing a deal to acquire the Heavenly Crane's corpse in exchange for a price.

Nevertheless, the issue isn't severe, as the current Li Che... when confronted with plots, even if he can't handle them, possesses the assurance to flee.

Bursting with survival skills, that's the source of his boldness.

"The Heavenly Crane Demon God...is my son-in-law, just wanting to retrieve his corpse, for the sake of my daughter."

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable declared in a grave tone.

Son-in-law?

"If you give me both the demon corpse and the demon core, I will exchange ten Four Imperial Taoist Divine Crystals."

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable proposed.

"I want the Three Pure Dao Yuns Divine Crystal."

Beneath the Bull Demon Mask, Li Che's gaze flickered as he lifted his hand and stated.

"Impossible! You’re asking for too much... Don’t you know the price of the Three Pure Dao Yuns Divine Crystal? It’s not a Divinity Crystal, but a Dao Yun Divine Crystal!"

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable bellowed right away, his voice booming like a raging bull's call.

From his reaction, it was clear he was truly agitated.

Evidently, the Three Pure Dao Yuns Divine Crystal holds immense worth.

Li Che pondered briefly, then upped the bid: "Fifteen pieces."

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable glared icily at the overreaching Bull Demon...

Yet, contrary to Li Che’s anticipation.

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable consented: "Alright."

Under the mask, Li Che's lip curved slightly, indicating the offer might have been undervalued.

Still, it wasn't undervalued much, considering it involved a Demon Race Demon God's corpse, unlike a Human Race Divine Tribulation remnant—their values differ vastly.

After all, a Demon Race Demon God... brims with precious elements.

That said, Li Che solely required the Heavenly Crane Demon God's demon energy...

Armed with some demon energy, Li Che could opt for Soul Capturing or Ink Splashing.

Li Che had already planned the prime value of the Heavenly Crane Demon God, while the corpse... could be traded for a batch of Dao Yun Divine Crystals and substantial riches—so why refuse?

As the Qiankun Space ripped open via five fingers, seizing the Heavenly Crane Demon God corpse like a lance in that moment, abruptly inside his chest, the [Ten Thousand Demon Emperor] Dao Fruit began to tremble wildly.

A fearsome pull burst forth, drawing away roughly ninety percent of the demon energy from the Heavenly Crane Demon God and its demon core, retaining merely a slim ten percent to preserve the demonic essence befitting a Demon God.

To the Black Bull Demon God Venerable, the Netherworld Ox Demon appeared to hesitate briefly, before extracting the Heavenly Crane Demon God’s corpse.

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable flicked his sleeves abruptly, unleashing a tempest of demon energy, as fifteen Four Imperial Dao Yun Divine Crystals soared toward Li Che.

Li Che accessed the Qiankun Space and absorbed every one of these Dao Yun Divine Crystals.

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable stored the demon-energy-infused Heavenly Crane Demon God’s corpse, cast a profound glance at the Bull Demon, and then departed.

The deal concluded with remarkable speed.

Surprisingly, this Demon Race Two Disasters Realm Demon God Venerable proved quite accommodating.

In truth, Li Che felt a touch of astonishment.

This prompted an instinctive wariness in Li Che's heart, sensing something amiss.

Li Che refrained from further abusing rule gaps to slay demons and extract demon energy.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

Upon the city wall, Niu Yi, Niu Er, and Niu San had also vanished from sight.

Materializing behind the Bull Demon, they located a secluded courtyard, where Li Che stepped inside.

Once Li Che had entered the courtyard.

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable retracted his senses, his icy murderous aura blatant, amid swirling demon energy, the Heavenly Crane Demon God’s corpse bobbed gently.

"Humph!"

A frigid huff escaped him, his attention shifting subtly.

Instantly, a silhouette with unfurled bat-like wings erupted from the demon energy.

This was the Night Bat Demon God; the demon race that dominated Qi Tian City in Ten Thousand Rivers for five centuries couldn't rely on merely three gatekeeper Demon Gods.

To boldly confront the joint assault from the Grand Prospect Dynasty, Divine Sect, Ancient Family, Western Regions Buddha Land, Wushen Mountain, and other human powers, it surely involved more than three Demon Gods in Qi Tian City.

"Keep an eye on the Netherworld Ox Demon..."

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable commanded coldly.

Hearing this, the Night Bat Demon God offered no retort, ripping through the void and vanishing within.

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable’s immense demon energy churned like dark flames, reforming the enormous black bull illusion, as he addressed ongoing protocols.

Following the Heavenly Crane Demon God’s demise, the Black Bull Demon God Venerable assigned a replacement Demon God to Qitian West Gate: the Sword Antelope Demon God, whose strength nearly matched the Heavenly Crane Demon God’s.

Beyond Qi Tian City.

After the Netherworld Ox Demon’s triumphant entry into the city via slaying a Demon God and the thrilling ordeal.

Various mighty entities finally eased up, launching their own assaults on the demon gods and demon kings at Qi Tian City’s gates.

Battles raged ceaselessly outside Qi Tian City.

Yet, none of this concerned Li Che.

Within a modest courtyard in Qi Tian City’s outer district.

Upon entering the courtyard, Li Che unfurled the Heaven and Earth chessboard at once. He narrowed his eyes, detecting an intensely dominant surge of demon energy across the board.

"Ah, this Black Bull Demon God Venerable has actually deployed a Second Disaster Two Tribulations Realm demon god for surveillance..."

"Such intense scrutiny makes sense, considering it cost the Heavenly Crane Demon God’s life in exchange."

Li Che offered a soft smile.

"The Black Bull Demon God Venerable, a Two Disasters Demon God... At this point, I’m probably no match for him."

Currently, despite Li Che’s deeply solid foundation, facing a One Disaster Three Tribulations Realm’s divine tribulation would prove extremely challenging.

Let alone the demon gods of the Second Disaster Realm, beings that cross an entire major realm!

Since stepping into Qi Tian City, Li Che had remained prepared to teleport away at any instant.

He harbored no desire to clash with a Two Disasters Demon God.

Although Li Che, aided by the Immaculate Heart Taoist Fruit, could disregard any suppression, he still sensed the formidable pressure from the Two Disasters Black Bull Demon God Venerable.

It was utterly daunting; merely sensing it revealed his own inadequacy.

"What a powerful foe, but who can say what schemes this Black Bull Demon God Venerable harbors?"

"Caution is essential in all things."

Li Che’s eyes gleamed with intensity.

Thump thump thump thump——

Inside his chest, the Dao Fruit of the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor pulsed relentlessly.

With a thought from Li Che, he left merely the Painting Immortal Avatar of the Bull Demon in the courtyard.

Meanwhile, his true self had materialized in Mo City Fengdu.

Likely due to Mo City’s full restoration, no ink-black rain fell anymore within the city, and the endless drifting black mists swirled vigorously.

After emerging, Li Che abruptly pressed his palm to his chest.

At once, from the Dao Fruit of the Ten Thousand Demons Emperor, he extracted a thread of the Heavenly Crane Demon God’s demon energy, which swiftly shaped into the Heavenly Crane Demon God’s form. Then, Li Che extended his five fingers broadly.

Additionally, there lay the remains of three elite demon kings: White Mantis, Yuan Bao, and Black Bear.

Rumbling rumbling...

At his back, the Ten Fierce Beasts Ink Painting gradually revealed itself.

"Splash ink."

Li Che lightly flicked his sleeve.

The instant after.

Within the Ten Fierce Beasts painting.

The Sea Flipping Nine Infants image, evolved from the Old Dragon God, unleashed a savage bellow!

Ink-forged chains lashed outward, ensnaring the demon energy-formed Heavenly Crane Demon God and the three demon kings’ corpses, before wrenching free the demon souls of the Heavenly Crane Demon God and the trio of demon kings!

Dreadful wails and horrified shrieks resounded across the heavens and earth.

The Ten Fierce Beasts Ink Painting swiftly consumed the demon souls.

[Ten Fierce Beasts Ink Painting: Sea Flipping Nine Infants (40%)]

Boom——

The Sea Flipping Nine Infants’ nine heads, previously with only two illuminated, now boasted four aglow!

Two dragon heads, one crane head, and the final one shifted through the three demon kings’ features, settling as the Primordial Leopard Demon King’s likeness, forming a leopard head.

Rumble!

Ink mists billowed endlessly, climbing higher and higher, akin to a surging colossal wave!

Dark lightning intertwined and thundered, flowing ceaselessly!

The ink hue swelled like an endless ocean, birthing enormous terrifying swells, and amid these surges, the Sea Flipping Nine Infants bellowed fiercely, exuding majestic might!

In Li Che’s joyful stare, the Sea Flipping Nine Infants’ aura solidly advanced to the One Disaster Three Tribulations realm!

Sensing the bolstered presence of the Sea Flipping Nine Infants.

Li Che’s gaze sparkled with delight, leading him to unavoidably peek at the second segment of the Ten Fierce Beasts Ink Painting...

Even though it appeared pristine and empty.

Li Che oddly sensed his vision might be tricking him.

It seemed as if that area...

Ought to feature a Black Bull.
