The dead were swallowed up, and the ancient capital was saved!
"Wait! What's wrong with my magic circle?"
Dao Long's expression froze.
Why did Lü Cheng start devouring the undead?
You can't eat these dirty things!
Moreover, why hasn't the impure soul energy accumulated in his body started to burn yet?
“It’s Lu Cheng who’s picky about food, not the devil,” Saint Seiya Lu Cheng said quietly.
"The devil is never picky about food; he will devour everything."
"Besides, do you think this little bit of undead can satisfy it?"
"..."
All the demons turned their attention to Bo Gang.
Binge eating and an overwhelming rage—that's the demonic aura of Bo Gang!
"Um... I don't really know either," Bo Gang said awkwardly.
She had been starving in hell for thousands of years and was so disoriented that she couldn't remember many things.
"You overeat and get hungry very easily because of your greed," Saint Seiya Lu Cheng said quietly.
"You were once incredibly greedy, relentlessly devouring the world, which is why you once had a body larger than a mountain."
"But during your thousands of years in hell, you were not only imprisoned until you were mentally imprisoned, but also subjected to abstinence. Your greed was restricted, so your power weakened."
"Your appetite will decrease as your greed diminishes."
"This demon has acquired your demonic energy, so it has the same characteristics as you, such as gluttony."
"You may become easily satisfied after a long period of abstinence, but that doesn't mean it's easy to get satisfied."
"The emptiness in its heart can never be filled!"
"..."
"Please don't tell me it will keep eating!" Daolong's eyes twitched violently.
His plan did not include Lü Cheng absorbing the demonic energy of the demon Bo Gang!
He didn't even consider this problem!
"Unfortunately, it really will keep eating." Saint Seiya Lu Cheng shrugged.
"It is greedy, but it doesn't know what it wants, so it relies on gluttony as the fastest way to seize everything. But if it doesn't get what it wants, it will get angry, and anger will consume its energy, making it hungrier and hungrier."
"The more it devours, the emptier it becomes."
"It can't get enough to eat."
"Roar!!!!!"
"Oh dear~ the more it eats, the hungrier it gets, and it's starting to get angry."
"..."
Seeing Saint Seiya Lü Cheng's amused expression, the group of demons looked extremely strange.
Right?
You really don't plan to make a move?
The demon in the sky was devouring things faster and faster. If it kept getting hungrier the more it ate, there would only be one outcome in the end!
That guy will eat the world!
To be honest, they weren't worried. So what if they ate it? Even if that demon really swallowed the Earth, they wouldn't be affected. They could just move to another world.
But can the Saint Seiya really just sit idly by and watch this happen?
Moreover, that thing is not only a flawed demon, but also another side of this Saint Seiya. As Daolong said, it is his responsibility.
"Roar!!!!!"
The speed at which gravity devoured the undead seemed insufficient to satisfy the demon's needs. The clouds in the sky churned rapidly, and tornadoes descended from the heavens, landing on the battlefield of the undead army, sweeping up tens of thousands of undead and sending them into the demon's mouth.
"At this rate, he'll have devoured all the undead on the ground in less than an hour." Dao Long's expression was starting to tense.
How did this plan deviate so much from its course?
"Um, what if the undead eat it all?" Lingxi had a bad feeling.
"..."
“I told you, demons aren’t picky eaters.” Saint Seiya Lu Cheng shrugged.
"The undead are currently the most energy-rich entities on the ground, so they have become its primary targets. When the undead can no longer satisfy it, it will naturally shift its targets."
"This city also makes for a good breakfast."
It's daybreak!
But darkness swallowed the dawn that belonged to this city and this land.
"Are you... still my child?" Su Meng looked at the Saint Seiya with a complicated expression.
Saint Seiya Lu Cheng nodded, then shook his head. "Yes and no. I am more of the past, with only a little bit of the present. Lu Cheng is less than one percent of me."
"You might not believe this, but strictly speaking, the sleeping creature in the sky is more like your child."
Lu Cheng's perception was correct; he was indeed closer to his demonic side because that demon was new and empty. Therefore, the so-called "demon Lu Cheng" created after their fusion was, in terms of consciousness, dominated by Lu Cheng.
As for him, compared to his long past as a Saint, this little experience in his life is hardly enough to cause much of a stir.
He is the past, a failed Saint Seiya.
Lü Cheng is the present and the future; moreover, he is not a Saint Seiya, he is a human, and also half a demon.
He chose a different path.
"Perhaps righteousness is too outdated, but I've gone too far down this path and there's no turning back." Saint Seiya Lu Cheng took a deep breath.
"Alright, enough joking around, demons, it's time to go back to hell!"
"Wait a moment!"
Seeing the Pure Yang Sword aimed at him, the Holy Lord panicked.
"Don't you think you should stop that thing in the sky first?"
"We haven't done anything yet!"
"Didn't do it?" The Saint Seiya narrowed his eyes slightly.
Are you questioning my judgment?
The current problem stems from the fact that his previous actions were repeatedly interrupted and sabotaged!
Back in Bo City, if the Holy Lord hadn't brought that little girl into the battlefield, causing him to lose focus, the problem with the demons should have been resolved by then.
If the demons are sealed in hell, all these messes won't happen!
As for Lü Cheng, countless sacrifices have been made in the fight against demons. He can die. So many Saint Seiya warriors and so many mages have died. Why can't Lü Cheng die?
Moreover, Lu Cheng had already prepared himself mentally when he came into contact with demonic power; he could accept life or death, success or failure.
He understands this because they are the same!
The only difference is that he once chose to pursue the power of righteousness, while this time, Lü Cheng has chosen the devil.
“I’m not questioning your judgment, but…”
The Holy Lord pointed to the group of Cursed Blue who had quietly slipped into the Dark Gate.
"Perhaps we can have another solution."
"Compared to those beings in the Dark Dimension, don't you think we demons are more humane?"
"Ha!" The Saint Seiya sneered.
"What kind of person are you? Do you think I don't know you?"
"Old man, you have ruled humanity for too long, and you have become too tainted by human nature. You are too much like a human, but unfortunately, you have only learned the shameful things about humanity."
"Insidious, despicable, opportunistic, treacherous, selfish, shameless. For a little immediate gain, you can easily betray and abandon your brothers and sisters, and even kill your own son!"
"If it weren't for the constraints of the contract, the world would be a completely different place now!"
“Uh…” The Holy Lord’s eye twitched slightly.
Don't insult someone by pointing out their weaknesses!
Why is everyone picking on my past mistakes?
Besides these, do you have nothing else to say?
