I Have A Demon God Simulator - Chapter 318

Chapter 318: The Heavenly Court’s Test, Ying Zheng’s Apprenticeship (1)
 

At this moment, Ying Zheng was just an unremarkable hostage, without even a few decent guards by his side.

When he came to Chu, he was only seven years old. He was not welcomed, so he did not start practicing martial arts or refining Qi.

It was even more so in Chu.

There was no one to teach him, nor were there any cultivation resources.

At the age of twelve, Ying Zheng had only learned some superficial martial arts, and had barely reached the Bone Refinement Realm.

In layman’s terms, they were second-rate martial artists.

With such strength, he could not protect himself at all.

At this moment, Ying Zheng had been targeted by the Heaven. Without Su Mu’s help, he would have been killed!

There would not be another emperor in the future.

It seemed that Su Mu’s appearance had caused a butterfly effect, and caused Ying Zheng to be targeted by the Heavenly Court.

If he thought about it carefully, he could roughly guess the reason.

Su Mu was on Heavenly Court’s must-kill list.

He had given Ying Zheng a mirror of protection, which had protected him several times.

This was probably the reason why Heavenly Court targeted this young man.

..

In an instant, Su Mu thought of many things.

On the other side, the servant who was stopped by him stopped in his tracks and looked at Ying Zheng with a questioning look.

“Listen to him.”

Su Mu’s sudden appearance, and his solemn expression, clearly meant that something bad had happened.

Although Ying Zheng was young, he was very intelligent and calm.

After ordering his servant to go back, he asked Su Mu:

“Orochi, is there a problem with the sacrificial team outside?”

“They’re here to kill you. Do you think there’s a problem?”

Su Mu casually replied, and then his illusory demon body slowly stretched out to a length of 20 to 30 meters.

This Dao Xu had the strength of a middle-stage grandmaster. He did not know if he could withstand it.

If it really didn’t work, they could retreat with Ying Zheng first.

While he was thinking of a countermeasure, the shouts outside the door became urgent.

“The River God of Qingshui River has arrived.”

“The River God of Qingshui River has arrived.”

“What’s wrong with this family? There was clearly someone in the room, why…Ah!”

As they shouted, a shrill scream suddenly came from the crowd.

The statue of the River God came alive!

..

The River God of Qingshui River was a half-human, half-fish existence. The statue perfectly restored his appearance.

The resurrection of the statue was not scary at all.

It wasn’t like the villagers in the sacrificial procession had never seen the River God of Qingshui River before. They were usually honest and amiable.

The problem was that the River God that the statue had transformed into was much more ferocious than usual!

It had sharp teeth, a ruthless expression, and a ferocious aura spewed out.

As soon as it appeared, it swallowed the man carrying the statue in front of it!

As he chewed, the sounds of flesh and bones shattering could be heard.

Flesh and blood slowly flowed down the corner of its mouth.

This scene scared the surrounding villagers so much that they screamed and fled into the distance.

Seeing this, the twenty-foot-tall River God opened his bloody mouth. A sticky tongue extended infinitely, wrapping up and swallowing a few warriors with some cultivation in the crowd.

“Hahaha! I finally got to taste this feeling again.”

The Fishman River God laughed in satisfaction and then looked at the small courtyard in front of him.

This guy was a demonic beast.

Decades ago, he was recruited by the Heavenly Court and became a River God.

Even though his cultivation base had increased by quite a bit, he was still restricted from doing evil to the human race by the Heavenly Court.

This was something that the savage beast that loved to eat humans could not tolerate!

Finally, the Heavenly Court gave him a mission to kill a human youth.

As long as he could complete this mission, he would let it do whatever it wanted and let it indulge for three days.

A mere human youth in the Body Refinement Realm was not worthy of the Merman River God’s attention.

It felt that it could easily complete the task, so it ate two appetizers first.

..

“Early Xiantian realm, not very strong.”

“But the methods of the Heavenly Court… It’s hard to say.”

After discovering that the Fishman River God was only at the Xiantian realm, Su Mu was slightly relieved, but he didn’t relax.

The false immortals in the Heavenly Court seemed to come from another world, and their cultivation civilization was very likely to be higher than that of the Nine Regions. They might have some strange methods.

Just as he was thinking, the Murloc River God directly pushed open the door and barged in with a body that looked like a small giant.

“Ahhhh! Young Master, run! Man-eating monsters are charging in!”

The servant who was about to open the door fell to the ground in fear, his face pale.

In his fear, he didn’t forget to ask his master to run away.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng was first shocked, and then he immediately pulled out his sword and stared at the Fishman River God. There was only fighting spirit in his eyes, not fear.

Even if he knew that he was no match, he would not run away.

This young boy had displayed his tenacious side.

However, with Su Mu around, this little River God wouldn’t cause any big waves.

“Where did this snake demon come from? Hurry up and get lost, let this god eat that kid behind!”

Without waiting for Su Mu to get angry, the Murloc River God shouted arrogantly.

The demon beast was stupid and brainless, and its vision was limited, so it couldn’t tell that Su Mu was extraordinary.

However, after being a River God for decades, he really thought that he was a god.

..

The answer to the Murloc River God was a red breath.

This red breath crossed the space in a blink of an eye and struck the River God’s body.

“Bang!”

With a loud explosion, the Fishman River God’s body exploded, turning into a cloud of flesh and blood.

A mere Xiantian realm demonic beast couldn’t withstand a single move from Su Mu.

Even if it was only a shadow of Su Mu, it wouldn’t do!
