Douluo Continent: The Butterfly, Starting from the Authority of Death

"Did you ask the boss?" The sudden words were deafening. Thinking of that golden-eyed figure, the Crimson King involuntarily shuddered.

"Demons, demons." The Crimson King stiffened his neck. "I'm also thinking about the Star Dou Great Forest."

"For the Star Dou Great Forest?" A man with white hair that reached his waist and a slender figure like a bamboo pole, who was perched high above the trees, chuckled.

"You neglected your duties and put the auspicious beast in danger. Think about how you're going to explain this to the boss!"

"waste."

"I have no idea why the boss assigned you to guard the auspicious beast?"

"you……"

The Red King bared his teeth in anger, and the flames on his body scorched the ground, causing the soil to crackle and pop.

"Demon spirit, don't forget."

"My ranking among ferocious beasts is above yours, and my strength is also above yours."

"What's the point of that outdated ranking?" The demon spirit scoffed. "In my opinion, among the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest, you, Crimson King, are nothing more than a flag-planting traitor."

"Not only did the auspicious beast go missing, but it also became subservient to a few humans."

"What, they want your spirit rings and spirit bones, and you're giving them to them too?"

"Yes, your spirit rings and spirit bones would reduce the intelligence of any human."

"You're no match for a mythical beast, you're just trash."

"Demon spirit, I've tolerated you for too long." The Crimson King's eyes were bloodshot, and his level 97 aura spread out, even distorting the air slightly.

"Is...is this infighting?"

In the distance, Xu Jiujiu, Manyi, and the other two, who were spectators, looked at each other in bewilderment.

Xia Die sized up the demon spirit standing at the fork of the tree, her eyelids slightly narrowed.

The Antichrist flowers within the area, with their calming fragrance, became even more intense.

"Humans".

The demon spirit turned its gaze to the four of them, including Xia Die.

He looked down from his vantage point.

"All of you leave an arm behind, then get out of the Star Dou Great Forest, and I'll give you a chance to live."

"Otherwise, you'll die here!"

The demon's voice was indifferent, its tone chilling.

"Your Excellency, are you truly determined to fight to the death?" It was Wang Xian'er who spoke.

The demon spirit's aura was slightly weaker than that of the Crimson King, but it was still comparable to her, on par with a level 96 Title Douluo in human form.

Adding the Crimson King to the mix, Wang Xian'er dared not think any further.

"How arrogant!" Manyi pointed at the auspicious beast and chimed in, "A demon spirit, huh? Don't forget the auspicious beast is still in our hands."

"Human, do you think I'm a piece of trash like the Crimson King?" The demon spirit retorted to the Crimson King again, ignoring the Crimson King's furious, blackened face.

"Threats aren't something only you can do." The demonic spirit paused. "Your attire, and that Star Crown Martial Soul—you're from the Star Luo Empire, aren't you?"

"If something happens to the auspicious beast, your Star Luo Empire has no reason to exist."

"you……"

Manyi was so angry she almost couldn't catch her breath.

"Don't argue with me," the demon continued. "I'm different from a useless beast like the Crimson King. I've been to the human world and know your society very well."

"The Star Crown Sect of ten thousand years ago, now the royal family of the Star Luo Empire."

"Hehe..." The demon spirit didn't finish her sentence.

But the wicked smile playing on his lips suggested he was in a good mood.

"Aren't you afraid that humans will join forces?" Xu Jiujiu couldn't help but ask.

The demon shook its head slightly: "Can humans really join forces?"

"Even if there's even a one in ten thousand chance, as you say, that our Star Dou Great Forest could wipe out the Star Luo Royal Family without anyone knowing, do you think we can't do it?"

"Or are you really willing to go all out to attack the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Stop dreaming.

"For the sake of the auspicious beast, we are willing to perish together with you humans. Do you dare?"

"I remember the Star Luo Empire and the Sun Moon Empire were at war, right?"

"Can you really join forces?"

"Oh right, and there's also Mu En from Shrek Academy. The Dragon God Douluo is indeed very strong."

"We might not be able to break into Shrek City."

"But what if the location is in Xingluo City?"

"Humans, you possess powerful intelligence and even unparalleled creativity."

"But to us soul beasts, it's nothing special."

"Alright." The demon clapped its hands, signaling everyone to come back to their senses.

"Leave an arm behind, and I'll let you go."

"Oh, and that woman who lost an arm should also have one arm."

"Of course, legs are fine too, it doesn't have to be hands." The spirit's voice was like a demon's whisper.

That captivating tone and nonchalant attitude forced Xu Jiujiu and the others to consider the consequences.

You can threaten the other party, and the other party can threaten you.

"Xia Die..."

After a long while, she subconsciously looked at Xia Die beside her.

"That's fake."

Xia Die's voice inexplicably echoed in everyone's minds.

"Don't speak, don't resist."

"A look of bewilderment or slight hesitation is enough."

Xia Die's voice was heard not only by Xu Jiujiu, but also by Manyi and Wang Xian'er.

Although I didn't understand what was going on, Xia Die's words were inexplicably convincing.

Especially in this sea of ​​flowers, one feels a sense of peace.

So, the three of them then displayed expressions of confusion and indecision.

"die!"

A terrifying spiritual force rose up from behind.

In the blink of an eye, a mental pressure enveloped the four of them.

At the same time, a gray light rushed into the sea of ​​flowers of the Butterfly Garden, accompanied by a terrifying spiritual power that was enough to overwhelm everything.

Apart from Xia Die, the other three all had a drastic change in expression.

That's terrifying, that mental strength.

Even Wang Xian'er, who was in her 96th year, felt an immense sense of oppression in the air.

Having experienced the mental attack of the auspicious beast Three-Eyed Golden Lion up close, both Manyi and Xu Jiujiu had several words on their minds at the same time.

"The ultimate spiritual attribute."

This spiritual power is on a completely different level from that of the auspicious beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

More aggressive, more ruthless.

It gives people a sense of oppression, like being in a small boat swaying in the ocean, ready to capsize at any moment.

"Don't move, don't resist."

The sound of a butterfly rang out at just the right moment.

The same spiritual energy, accompanying the sea of ​​flowers, soothed everyone's emotions.

Meanwhile, Xu Jiujiu, Wang Xian'er, and Manyi all noticed that their soul power was rapidly dissipating.

Although they could have stopped it on their own, the three remembered Xia Die's instructions and did not resist.

Gradually, the three of them turned pale.

At that very moment, the mental pressure that had been nagging at him suddenly vanished.

No, it didn't disappear.

All the mental attacks were directed at Xia Die.

"What is she doing...?"

As a level 96 peak Title Douluo, she could clearly feel the tsunami-like mental impact all converging towards Xia Die's spiritual sea of ​​consciousness.

Moreover, the butterfly makes no attempt to obstruct it.

What does she want to do?

Before Wang Xian'er could think any further...

The spiritual force that was pulling the attack on the butterfly seemed to be hindered.

The next moment, it bounced back even faster than before.

"Aaaaaah!"

The ear-piercing screams were so loud they made people's eardrums ache.

Five or six meters away, another creature appeared, its shape obscured by a thick gray mist.

The creature was seen spitting out red liquid from what appeared to be a mouth-like opening.

"No, that's impossible!"

His voice trembled, and he staggered backward.

As he spoke, the red liquid he spewed never stopped, and his soul power and mental strength were rapidly waning.

The demon staggered a few steps and collapsed to the ground, its body, shrouded in gray mist, twisting irregularly.

It seems like even after it's cured, it still drools.
