Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

The Demon Emperor sensed a gaze locking onto her. Lin Moyu’s eyes shone with a cold light, staring directly at where she stood.

Though he couldn’t truly see her, he had clearly detected her presence.

“It was that eye above that discovered me.”

The Demon Emperor felt a faint soul attack emanating from the Undead Eye hovering in the air.

All her previous encounters with Lin Moyu had taken place at a distance. This was the first time she had witnessed his skill from such close range, and it was undeniably strange.

With calm composure, the Demon Emperor dispelled her concealment, revealing her elegant figure.

“It’s you!” Lin Moyu’s gaze instantly sharpened.

The moment her concealment dropped, the aura of a barrier emerged.

Barrier… Abyss… Demon.

Lin Moyu immediately guessed her identity.

Within the entire Abyss, there was only one being capable of approaching him without being detected.

Sensing the hostility radiating from Lin Moyu, the Demon Emperor seemed slightly surprised, “You recognize me?”

Lin Moyu had already shifted into a battle stance, every muscle tense.

“The Demon Emperor.”

“How did you guess?” She was even more surprised.

They had never met face-to-face before, and she had completely altered her aura. Identifying her through aura should have been impossible.

Was it merely a lucky guess?

No. Lin Moyu’s certainty made that unlikely.

Lin Moyu ignored her question, “You infiltrated Shenxia City and followed me all the way here. What is your objective?”

As he spoke, the Thunderclap Tower’s outer tower appeared in his hand, ready to strike at any moment.

The Demon Emperor backed away slightly, “I harbor no ill intent.”

“And you expect me to believe that?” Lin Moyu sneered.

The hatred between the humans and the Abyssal Demons had lasted for over 1,000 years. Whenever the two sides met, the outcome was always a fight to the death.

The Demon Emperor herself had tried to kill him several times. Not long ago, she had even joined forces with the Dragon Emperor in an attempt to end his life.

Claiming she had no ill intent now was almost laughable.

The Demon Emperor chuckled softly, “I am serious. This time, I truly mean no harm.”

“Given my status, there is no need for me to lie to you.”

Lin Moyu didn’t believe her, but he didn’t attack either.

Against the Demon Emperor, he was confident in defending himself, but defeating her was another matter entirely.

Lin Moyu asked in a deep voice, “Then why are you here?”

Facing the vigilant Lin Moyu, the Demon Emperor did her best to appear sincere, “I have come to seek your cooperation.”

“Cooperation?” Lin Moyu’s mind immediately flashed back to events from 1,000 years ago.

Back then, the humans and the Abyssal Demons had formed an alliance. Together, they had driven the Dragonkind out of the Dimensional Battlefield and sealed every spatial channel, preventing the Dragonkind from returning for a millennium.

Lin Moyu’s eyes flickered as a possibility formed in his mind. Was the Demon Emperor planning to repeat that alliance?

The humans currently had no half-step Transcendent God-level powerhouses. In terms of combat strength, Lin Moyu was arguably the strongest among them. Seeking him out for cooperation would make sense.

The Demon Emperor nodded, “Correct. I have come specifically to cooperate with you.”

Lin Moyu remained on guard, his posture unchanged, “Then tell me. What kind of cooperation are you proposing?”

The Demon Emperor replied, “Before we discuss that, we should talk about conditions first. I hope you can promise me one thing.”

“What condition?”

“No matter how powerful you become in the future, you must never act against me. In return, I will never be the first to act against you or the human race.”

The Demon Emperor laid out a condition that left Lin Moyu somewhat baffled.

It sounded strange, and even someone as perceptive as him couldn’t immediately grasp her true intentions.

“Explain yourself.”

The Demon Emperor smiled, “It means exactly what it sounds like.”

After a moment of thought, Lin Moyu began to understand, “Are you afraid that I’ll kill you in the future?”

The Demon Emperor did not try to hide it and admitted it frankly, “You could say that. Antares is backing you, so I cannot touch you.”

“Your talent is extraordinary; there’s a high chance you’ll become a Transcendent God in the future and gain the power to kill me.”

“I don’t want to die, so I’ve come to make peace with you in advance.”

Lin Moyu laughed, amused by what he saw as wishful thinking, “The human and the Abyssal Demons making peace? After 1,000 years of resentment, do you really think that’s possible?”

The Demon Emperor clarified, “I’m referring only to myself. It has nothing to do with the Demons of the Abyss.”

Lin Moyu was stunned. From her words, it sounded as though the Demon Emperor was prepared to sell out the Abyssal Demons.

She was the Demon Emperor, the ruler of the Abyssal Demons, yet now she was willing to sell them out. The idea was absurd.

To Lin Moyu, it sounded like a fairy tale, something even myths would hesitate to tell.

Seeing the shock on his face, the Demon Emperor chuckled, “Don’t think it’s impossible. In this cruel world, nothing is.”

“To show my sincerity, I can give you a token of goodwill first.”

Lin Moyu frowned, “What sincerity?”

The Demon Emperor produced a memory crystal, “This contains a list of members of the Demon Worship Society.”

Lin Moyu took the crystal and briefly examined it, his expression shifting to shock again.

There were nearly 10,000 names inside, spread across every field of human society.

While none had access to the highest core levels, many occupied mid-level positions. It was a startling discovery.

Bai Yiyuan’s last great purge had clearly failed to eliminate the Demon Worship Society completely.

Lin Moyu asked in a deep voice, “How do I know this list is real?”

What if it was fake? He couldn’t simply take the Demon Emperor at her word.

The Demon Emperor had anticipated his reaction, “You don’t need to do anything. Contact the human leadership and see whether these people are all dead, and whether they all committed suicide.”

As she spoke, she raised a finger toward the sky.

A streak of law shot upward, piercing the spatial barrier and disappearing into an unknown distance.

Seeing the Demon Emperor suddenly wielding law, Lin Moyu’s heart tightened.

“Wait for me outside Shenxia City.”

At this point, he had no mind left for level grinding.

His Deathwings spread wide, and his soul force surged as he shot toward Shenxia City.

In just a few seconds, he arrived at the city and immediately activated its teleportation formation to return to the Human World.

As a five star godly general, he possessed the highest level of authority among humans; using the teleportation formation was well within his privileges.

He moved so quickly that the soldiers guarding the teleportation formation didn’t even have time to stop him.

They saw only a blur before the teleportation formation activated.

The soldiers initially tried to intervene, but when they noticed the purple godly general badge on Lin Moyu’s shoulder, they immediately held their tongues.

Upon returning to the Human World, Lin Moyu immediately contacted Meng Anwen and explained the situation regarding the list of Demon Worship Society members.

Meng Anwen arrived as quickly as possible and took the list.

Half an hour later, he sent back a message.

The contents shocked Lin Moyu.

The nearly 10,000 people on the list had all committed suicide.

Some were Shenxia people, while others belonged to other factions and nations.

Just half an hour earlier, they had taken their own lives.

The method was eerily consistent. Each of them had used a weapon to sever their own heads.

Amid his shock, Lin Moyu realized something else.

Were the Demon Worship Society members limited only to those on the list?

Or was the Demon Emperor still hiding something?

Meng Anwen soon appeared before Lin Moyu again.

“Moyu, what exactly is going on? Where did this list come from?”

Lin Moyu hadn’t explained the situation clearly before, and Meng Anwen was now even more shocked than he was.

Reports from all over the world had made it clear that this was an enormous incident.

Lin Moyu’s mind was racing, “I’ll explain the details later, Teacher. I need to go back first.”
