Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2053: Chapter 209: Lici’s Grand Arrival! The Demons in Peril

…

Blood Magic Ridge.

Blood Magic Ridge is located in the angle zone between the Immortal No.3 Defensive Area and the Demonic No.2 Defensive Area. It is desolate, the land is barren, and the value of its few mineral resources is low. Even within the vast Demonic Realm, it is considered a relatively impoverished area.

This Blood Magic Ridge is the territory of the Scarlet Demonic King.

Deep within this Blood Magic Ridge, there is a fortress named [Scarlet Demonic King Fort].

This is the core of the Scarlet Demonic King’s territory and the core of its power.

However, because Blood Magic Ridge is particularly poor, Scarlet Demonic King Fort has not been properly maintained or repaired for many years. The towering castle walls are full of mottled marks, making it evident that they have endured much hardship.

Under the illumination of the blood moon, the dark red bricks seem to be covered with a layer of blood color, appearing extremely ancient.

Yet.

On this day, this fortress located in a desolate place welcomed an honorable guest.

In the morning, before the mist in the mountains had completely dissipated, a troop of nearly a thousand Demonic Clan members majestically passed through the blood-colored sky and arrived outside Scarlet Demonic King Fort.

In the center of the troop, a particularly conspicuous giant carriage, drawn by seven large Flying Dragon Beasts, was made of black and gold-colored wood.

The carriage resembled a moving palace, its surface carved with intricate floral patterns that appeared like relief sculpture. Various gemstones adorned the windows, pillars, and the eyes of the reliefs, looking incomparably luxurious and extravagant.

Even the Flying Dragon Beasts pulling the carriage were clad in metallic armor, with prominent positions on the armor inlaid with eye-catching jewels.

Inside the flying palace, servants of different demon races wore uniform attire, standing at various locations, and flags that symbolized the identity of the carriage’s owner were fluttering in the corners.

Outside the flying palace.

There was also a team of nearly a thousand aerial cavalry escorting this flying palace. This aerial cavalry was extraordinary, each riding a fully-armored small Flying Dragon.

From afar, the discipline of the Demonic Clan’s aerial cavalry was rigorous, their order impeccable, surrounded by a diffuse aura of Demonic Evil Energy, indicating that their combat power would not be low.

With the escort and support of this Demonic Clan aerial cavalry, the flying palace’s might was even stronger, showing a demeanor like that of an emperor on a procession.

The guards of Scarlet Demonic King Fort had never seen such a spectacle before.

Seeing the troop grandly stop on the open ground outside the fortress, the demon general responsible for guarding the fort was completely stunned, remaining in a daze for quite some time.

“Go notify your Demonic King, tell him that Young Master Ming Shura has arrived. Have him come quickly to receive him.”

Just then, a Demonic Clan general riding a large Flying Dragon suddenly sped out of the stopped troop, halted in front of the door guard, and commanded coldly.

Ming, Young Master Ming Shura?!

The demon general was startled, quickly agreeing fearfully, then hurried inside the fortress without caring about anything else.

However, before he could rush into the fortress, a coarse, deep voice echoed from the sky: “Young Master, you’ve finally arrived.”

As he spoke, a scarlet figure descended from the sky, landing at the front of the troop.

It was a brawny Demonic King, largely humanoid in appearance, but covered in a layer of scarlet hard scales, even its wings were vivid red, exuding a dense bloody aura, looking incredibly menacing.

Obviously, this scarlet figure was the owner of Scarlet Demonic King Fort, the Scarlet Demonic King.

“Master?!”

The demon general’s movements froze, and he immediately knelt on the ground reverently.

The Scarlet Demonic King ignored him, striding past him and bowing deeply towards the enormous carriage palace with utmost respect.

“Young Master, you’ve had a tiresome journey. I’ve prepared a feast…”

“No need for a feast.”

An arrogant male voice interrupted the Scarlet Demonic King’s words, coming from within the carriage.

With the voice, the curtain of the carriage was pulled open by two demon maidens, revealing a figure that slowly emerged.

It was a demon who looked extremely similar to a human male.

He had a slender figure, silver hair, golden eyes, and handsome features. At first glance, he almost looked indistinguishable from a human. In terms of appearance alone, he was even more attractive than most humans, exuding an elegant and noble aura, appearing more sophisticated than many humans.

Only the pair of demon horns on his head, the demon wings folded behind him, and the pure and vast aura of Ming Sha surrounding him marked his identity as a high-ranking demon.

Obviously, this demon was the Young Master Ming Shura referred to by the Scarlet Demonic King.

He glanced at the Scarlet Demonic King indifferently and said, “I’m sure you are quite clear about why I have come. Don’t waste any more words.”

“This… Yes.”

The Scarlet Demonic King was somewhat surprised, but considering that he had a request for Young Master Ming Shura, he ultimately agreed.

At this moment, the heavy stone gate of the fortress was already open. Under the Scarlet Demonic King’s summons, the carriage slowly entered the fort and headed towards the depths of Scarlet Demonic King Fort.

Although referred to as a “fort,” in reality it resembled more an entire city, with expansive inner areas populated by numerous demons of various ranks. Even those demon lords possessing their own territories usually resided within the fortress most of the time.

And the inner fortress where the Scarlet Demonic King resided was located in the deepest part of Scarlet Demonic King Fort.
