Chapter 524: The Palace of the Night Emperor

"Your mount? What kind of monster is this, it looks so strange," Liu Ruolai curiously asked, looking at Di Ting approaching. She could feel the aura emanating from Di Ting, which was extremely compelling.

Qin Jun mysteriously smiled and said, "This is a divine beast. How could a mortal woman like you recognize it?"

"You..." Liu Ruolai was so angry that she trembled all over.

At this moment, Di Ting quickly flew to Qin Jun and spoke in human language, "Di Ting is here to pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Qin Jun quickly waved his hand and smiled, "You, as a divine beast, have come to pay homage to me. It is indeed a bit of a burden for you."

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. I am willing to be Your Majesty's mount, to accompany Your Majesty through thousands of mountains and rivers, and I swear not to regret it!" Di Ting said seriously. It understood that by paying homage to Qin Jun, it was not going to be a frontline warrior. Looking at Yang Jian, the Nine-Headed Snake, Zhu Bajie, and Jinchanshi, it stirred up waves in its heart.

These people were all stronger than it.

It came from myths and legends, not the Journey to the West, so it did not recognize Yang Jian and the others.

Upon hearing Di Ting's oath, Qin Jun couldn't help but nod in satisfaction. He gave face to Di Ting, and Di Ting also showed obedience. Why wouldn't he be happy about it?

With Di Ting joining them, Qin Jun's mood improved, and the team continued to move forward.

Qin Jun also tried sitting on Di Ting's back. It must be said that the feeling was really cool. This was the mount of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. How many people could have such treatment?

The journey ahead was smooth, to the extent that they didn't even need Yang Jian to take action. They could easily advance with the help of the Nine-Headed Snake, even when facing demon kings.

In the endless territory, there was only one demon king, and the rest of the demon kings were no match for the Taiyi Immortal realm.

In this way, Qin Jun and the others were getting closer to the Night Emperor's Palace.

As they approached the Night Emperor's Palace, they encountered more and stronger monsters.

Back at the Night Emperor's Palace, the Night Emperor lazily leaned on the high seat. In the great hall, there was a figure in a black robe standing, kneeling on the ground and speaking in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the enemy is getting closer to us, and four demon kings have already died. Are we really not going to stop them?"

The Night Emperor chuckled softly, "Since they want to come knocking on our door, then I will give them the opportunity. It's a good chance to eliminate some dissidents."

"But the other party is capable of killing the Luo Shu Demon King. I'm afraid..." The figure in the black robe hesitated. When the news of the Luo Shu Demon King being killed reached the Night Emperor, his first reaction was shock, but he quickly regained his composure. He could also kill the Luo Shu Demon King, not to mention that this was the endless territory. What was there to worry about?

"The Erlang God, I really want to see what he's capable of to be able to kill Luo Shu," the Night Emperor muttered to himself, a smug smile on his sinister face.

Not to mention the Eastern Flame Territory, even within the jurisdiction of the Temple, he was not afraid of anyone, not even the first genius of the Temple in thousands of years.

The figure in the black robe said no more, bowed to the Night Emperor, and then disappeared.

The Night Emperor began to ponder, tapping his fingers on the armrest.

The entire hall was filled with the sound of his fingers tapping, eerie and silent.

...

Boom!

The Nine-Headed Snake slammed a snake demon into the forest, raising a cloud of dust. A disdainful expression appeared on its face as it laughed and scolded, "A weakling who doesn't know his own limits, can't even withstand a single blow from me."

Qin Jun, sitting on Di Ting's back, couldn't help but feel speechless upon hearing the Nine-Headed Snake's mocking laughter. This guy was definitely venting. The enemies they had encountered in recent days had all been ruthlessly slaughtered by it, showing no mercy. No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like it was putting on a show for Yang Jian.

Yang Jian seemed to be oblivious, sitting cross-legged on the clouds, quietly cultivating.

Zhu Bajie wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling a bit uneasy. The collision between the Nine-Headed Snake and Yang Jian was like a clash of titans. If it weren't for Yang Jian's unwavering loyalty, considering things from Qin Jun's perspective, the Nine-Headed Snake would have been chopped to pieces by now.

Liu Ruolai had already gotten used to the Nine-Headed Snake's violent temper, so she was also cultivating, paying no attention to it.

Jinchanshi lazily lay on the clouds and said, "It's all about the spirit, traveling with you guys is not boring at all."

Zhu Bajie's mouth twitched, unable to help but recall the scenes on the journey to the West. Every time at this point, Tang Sanzang would start preaching, while Jinchanshi would wear a mischievous smile, even giving off a sense of provocation.

At this moment, Qin Jun noticed that dark clouds were looming ahead, giving off a chilling and eerie feeling.

The demonic aura was pervasive, even Qin Jun could feel it.

It seemed that they were really getting closer to the Night Emperor's Palace.

Qin Jun took a deep breath. Although he had already figured out the Night Emperor's plan, when it came to this day, he still felt a bit nervous.

After all, he had never directly confronted the Night Emperor, who was an existence surpassing the Luo Shu Demon King.

Soon, they sailed into the range of dark clouds.

"Strange, the aura of these monsters is rapidly receding, as if someone is commanding them," murmured Jin Chanzi to himself.

The Nine-Headed Bug beside him shook its head and chuckled, "The Night Emperor is not foolish. He can't keep sending his subordinates to their deaths!"

Jin Chanzi thought about it and realized it made sense.

It seemed that the Night Emperor was getting closer to them, and he might even be observing them.

Yang Jian stopped practicing and stood up, looking ahead with a slight raise of his eyebrows. His familiar Qin Jun could tell that he was very excited.

The battle maniac was getting fired up again!

After about half an hour, Qin Jun and the others finally saw the outline of the Night Emperor's palace.

The area was still covered with forests, but countless peaks rose up like pillars supporting the sky. Among them, on the largest peak, stood a towering black palace. The dark clouds flashed with lightning, and occasional streaks of lightning illuminated the Night Emperor's palace. Even from a distance, they could see the demonic stone statues on the eaves of the palace.

They were monstrous demons with horns, bare upper bodies, wings on their backs, and terrifying faces.

"Prepare for battle!" Qin Jun said in a deep voice. At the same time, he reached out into the void and pulled Liu Ruolai into his arms.

Jin Chanzi stood up slowly, Zhu Bajie took out his nine-toothed rake, and the Nine-Headed Bug also summoned the Crescent Moon Spade.

Yang Jian didn't make a move, but his gaze was fixed on the Night Emperor's palace, burning with flames.

"You dare to come looking for trouble after taking something from me, how interesting!" The Night Emperor's voice suddenly resounded through the heavens and the earth, with a menacing tone that made Liu Ruolai cling tightly to Qin Jun's arm.

Qin Jun laughed loudly and said, "Your thing? If it's yours, why did I take it?"

Facing the Night Emperor's pressure, his tone was still full of disdain and arrogance, earning the admiration of Liu Ruolai in front of him.

Jin Chanzi and the others were curious about what Qin Jun had taken from the Night Emperor, and they could all sense the killing intent hidden in the Night Emperor's voice.

The Night Emperor fell into silence, and then the thunder and lightning above their heads grew even more intense.

A tremendous force surged from the Night Emperor's palace, like an unstoppable wave.

"Hmph!" Yang Jian snorted and immediately unleashed his own aura, confronting the Night Emperor.

In an instant, the space between the two sides visibly twisted, as if it could shatter at any moment. Qin Jun and the others were oppressed by their aura, making their breathing become rapid.

End of Chapter 4, there won't be any more today, don't wait for it.
