Jackie Chan Adventures: I, the Mirror God, Master of Fear

Chapter 174 Demons and Demons

The westernmost part of Los Angeles.

In a detached villa.

The Holy Lord looked at Rasu with a somewhat expressionless face.

To be precise, it was looking at the hexagonal rhombus prism in Rasu's hand, on which a hexagram was projected:

This hexagram gradually revealed a map, pointing to the location of the gate that seals the demon.

The Sino-Soviet border.

What bad luck!

"Um...is something wrong?"

Rasu was a little confused and cautiously asked the Holy Lord, after all, his mission was to spy on the Holy Lord's movements.

But life and death are indeed in the hands of the Holy Lord, so naturally one must be extremely careful.

The Holy Lord came to his senses and waved his hand: "You may leave now."

Rasu carefully placed the Panku Box down, turned and left the room.

The Holy Lord looked outside with a complicated expression.

Today in Los Angeles, the weather service predicted rain, but the rain has been slow to fall; instead, the dark clouds have been piling up.

Just like the Holy Lord's mood at this moment, he was suppressed and irritable, yet unable to vent his anger.

As for that Sino-Soviet thing, indeed, we should just release it and let that old man take it back to hell.

At most, the Holy Lord wouldn't step on it, which could be considered a sign of respect for the demon.

But.
The matter of Di Kui has revealed too much, so much that even the demons feel fear.

Therefore, the Sino-Soviet relationship actually made the Holy Lord somewhat hesitant.

He wanted to help China and the Soviet Union, to see if they could uncover some more divine artifacts and explore the path of the devil a little further.

But his inner resentment prevented him from doing so.

After all, China and the Soviet Union were true mortal enemies, to the point that if both sides recovered, they could fight a real battle immediately.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so conflicted.

The more books on magical arts he reads, the more his wisdom is restored, and the clearer his understanding of the situation becomes. But the clearer his understanding becomes, the more contradictions arise.

"What's wrong, father?"

The little demon dragon arrived at this moment, slightly out of breath, his body radiating heat and demonic energy, which was blocked by an array, preventing these auras from spreading.

The Holy Lord glanced at the demon dragon, thought for a moment, and then told him what had happened.

Now, the little demon dragon is becoming more and more composed, and the Holy Lord is willing to talk to him about serious matters.

After listening, the little devil's eyes flickered.

He decisively said, "Why should we think so much? Since he doesn't know what respect is, let him fend for himself."

The Holy Lord paused for a moment, then let out a long sigh.

Wow~
The rain that had been building up for so long finally fell from the sky.

A strong wind began to blow, bringing a scene and taking away some entanglements.

"The capital of God."

In the scene, a large purple toad reappears.

Not far from him stood a blue hippopotamus-like man with his arms crossed, a gloomy look in his eyes, and wearing armor.

The hippopotamus-man was surrounded by arcs of electricity, revealing his violent temper.

"Tch~" The little devil dragon pouted and turned his head away from the screen.

Because of Zhou Lan and Xi Mu, he did respect the demons, but not to the point of fear, since the eight demons were equal.

And the fire element of the Eight Trigrams, Li, is his father.

He also has the right to have a little temper in some things.

The Holy Lord calmly said, "No need to say more. For the sake of the bigger picture, I can endure this."

The words fell.

The helplessness in Xiaofeng's eyes softened instantly, and his gaze toward the Holy Lord became even more satisfied.

The little demon dragon suddenly turned around and looked at his father as if he were seeing him for the first time. Even Zhong Su was somewhat surprised, and the anger in his eyes subsided a little.

Honestly, if the roles were reversed, even if the root of all the mistakes lay with the Holy Lord, he still wouldn't tolerate any insults from him.

He never considered asking the Holy Lord for help. His monarchical pride told him that he should make the fraudsters lose face and face his destiny head-on. Even if he had to die, he should die standing.

did not expect.
However, it's actually normal for the Holy Lord to act this way.

In the original work, the Holy Lord's actions were quite obvious.

During the Dark Queen arc, in order to complete the spellbook, he decisively addressed Jade as his superior, bowing and calling her Queen.

During the Sino-Soviet chapter, the Sino-Soviet alliance was merely a threat, and he was able to restrain himself from exploding, even addressing them as "master."

From this, we can see that after the Holy Lord spent a long time away from home, while his wisdom was restored, his personality gradually became more and more cunning.

Now, it's no wonder he can suppress his anger.

Wow.
The rain outside gradually intensified, thunder roared, and lightning illuminated the Holy Lord's profile, giving his scarlet eyes a deeper look.

He glanced at Su coldly: "However, I have conditions."

"You said."

After the initial surprise, Xiaofeng immediately asked.

With the gods watching closely, the demon's chances are dwindling. To ensure the demon's victory, the demon must seize every opportunity and try with all its might, hoping for even the slightest chance of survival.

Otherwise, follow Ximu's example, give up everything, and integrate into the new era outside.

But Ximu is no longer the Sky Demon.
Currently, among all the demons, only Xiaofeng, Zhongsu, and Shengzhu have a higher rank than Fear. The other demons have all fallen in rank.
The current fear even surpasses that of the Demon Dragon, which has become the fourth.

“A legacy of magic, a vast legacy of magic.”

The Holy Lord calmly said, "Now I have neither a body nor any talismans; magic is my source of power."

Xiao Feng looked at the Holy Lord, shook his head, and said seriously, "I didn't. After the gods sealed Bo Gang, they went straight for the Moon Palace. I was ambushed and sealed on my way to provide support. I didn't have time to leave anything behind."

The Holy Lord paused for a moment. As the second elder brother, Xiaofeng's understanding of the overall situation of the demons was beyond question.

But when Bo Gang was sealed away by the gods, Xiao Feng was the one who most actively contacted other demons.

He was the first to provide support, and then became the second demon to be sealed away.

Other demons, perhaps due to their own calculations or the pride of their demon lords, offered relatively little support. By the time they wanted to provide assistance, the gods had already gained the upper hand, making their support largely useless.

The Holy Lord let out a long sigh, waved his hand, and was about to give up on negotiating terms.

The blue hippopotamus scoffed, "There are plenty of those things. I'll give them to you, Xiaofeng."

A lightning orb appeared in front of Xiaofeng.

Xiaofeng and the Holy Lord were taken aback.

Xiaofeng's smile became more genuine. Right, what time is it now? If the demons had united back then, the immortal gods would be nothing.

No.

Bo Gang and Di Kui don't need to be calculated.

If the other six monarchs could unite, even the gods would be in deep trouble.

Although gods and demons are in the same tier, any demon can suppress a god in a one-on-one fight.

Xiaofeng didn't expose Zhong Su's little scheme, but instead thanked him, saying, "Then thank you for your gift."

He inhaled the lightning into his mouth, read its contents, and then looked at the Holy Lord.

They were preparing to guide the Holy Lord to retrieve the magical heritage of China and the Soviet Union.

The strongest magic at the time was undoubtedly from the Kingdom of Fire.

But the other empires were similar, only each had its own focus. For example, the Earth Kingdom's forging skills were far ahead, and the Water Kingdom's formations were unparalleled.

Or perhaps the Moon Palace's physical skills are unparalleled, and the Heavenly Palace's contracts are invincible.

However, it's not entirely accurate to say that magic is lagging behind; it's more accurate to say that it's somewhat lagging behind at the monarch level.

Civilizations that developed to that point all had major academies that not only taught their own races, but also provided pathways for exceptionally talented individuals to advance, thereby enhancing the overall strength of the empire.

Otherwise, how could so many powerful figures have emerged in that era? Many demon wizards weren't born that way.
Zhong Su snorted coldly, his body transformed into lightning and disappeared, leaving behind only a cold remark.

"Hurry up, I've had enough of this damn hell!"
