He gently stroked her still-flat stomach with his large hand, feeling the tiny life inside that was stronger than usual. His usually calm eyes were now filled with excitement.
At the same time, he felt as if something had been left behind, and only now did he truly feel a sense of belonging to this world of gods.
"You've come?" Yan Bai placed her fair hand on the back of the young man's hand. Their hands were different sizes, yet they complemented each other perfectly. She spoke in a gentle voice.
Li Dao pressed his head against Yan's cheek, resting his chin on her soft, jade-like neck, and said in an equally gentle voice, "Yes, I'm here."
This time, he didn't respond as a Taoist priest, but as a husband, which shows how excited he was.
Having lived two lives, this is his first time being a father, and no matter how detached he is, he will still be filled with expectations for his firstborn child.
Seeing the two of them so affectionate and sweet, Ah-Zhui walked out without making a sound, and pulled down the tent flap as she did so.
Mmm, this dog food is delicious!
"I'm so envious. I wonder when I'll be able to find my own male god!" Ah Zhui glanced behind her, listened to the sounds inside, and sighed softly.
Then, she thought of Ge Xiaolun, who had come to Fraser with her before, but considering his record, she shook her head and said, "Maybe this is good. With Sister Yan and the god Yuzhu as our benchmark, it might not be easy to find someone slightly less outstanding!"
"Sister Zhui, what are you sighing about?" Mo Yi, who had just returned, saw her sister Zhui sighing and couldn't help but ask curiously.
A-Zhui shook her head: "Nothing, how did your mission go? Did you fail again?"
This time it was Moi's turn to sigh: "Well, that demon called Satan is very clever. Whenever I chase after them, they will hide in some big cities. I can't be exposed in front of everyone, so it's a bit of a headache."
This was her seventh hunt for the Holy Church. Although she killed many converted mutated demons, she failed to kill any of the eight named mutated demons. That mutated demon named Satan was too clever.
Since she bypassed some crowded places, it has learned her routine. She can't appear in crowded places, so whenever she is being hunted, she disguises herself and her demons and sneaks into big cities.
So, the seven weak mutated demons that could have been easily crushed suddenly became the ones they hesitated to attack, allowing the demons to live while continuing to grow stronger, which made them extremely angry.
Especially the arrogant face that guy showed, she had an urge to rush over and smash it to pieces, it was too infuriating!
"You don't need to worry anymore. It's their turn to have a headache now. Sister Yan's man has arrived in Ferrez and is currently in his tent," A-Zhui comforted her.
"Then I'll go in and say something. That guy called Satan is too infuriating. I can't stand him for even a day. If I could show off in front of everyone, I would kick his ass to pieces," Moy said viciously.
“Interesting.” The two women didn’t deliberately lower their voices or communicate secretly, so Li Dao could naturally hear them. He became somewhat interested in the mutated demon called Satan.
This must be the so-called butterfly effect caused by his arrival. After all, Frazier is part of the plot, and with the whole plot changing, there's no reason why something shouldn't happen to Frazier.
"Are you interested in that demon called Satan?" Yan and Li Dao shared a bed, and Yan could hear the interest in the other's voice. Combined with the conversation between A-Zhui and Mo Yi, and the other's last word "interesting," it was clear that he had become interested in that mutated demon who called himself the Demon King.
“Hmm, an ordinary but intelligent mutated demon who calls himself the Demon King, I am indeed very interested in it, but now I need to strengthen our child’s essence first.” Li Dao said, gently stroking Yan’s soft yet strong lower abdomen with his large hand.
Yan had already changed out of her armor when A-Zhui left, so she was now wearing a blue, slightly fitted long dress.
"Will this have any impact on the child?" Although Yan didn't think Li Dao was harmful to the child, she still asked out of concern.
"It won't have any impact; it will only enhance your foundation and improve your talent. Don't worry," Li Dao explained, then immediately channeled a wisp of true qi into his lower abdomen, merging it with the developing embryo.
"Alright, this wisp of my true qi can last for a year. It was probably born with the standard data of a second-generation super soldier. In fantasy terms, it's a Dao body, naturally close to the Dao, and also has innate divine power. If it continues to strengthen, its origin will probably break, so the second generation is basically its limit," Li Dao said with a smile.
"It's good that you have a plan. I guess you won't let it become a super soldier, and neither will I, because I think your cultivation system is better and more powerful than genes, so it's the best choice for it to cultivate with you." Yan gently stroked her belly, her rosy lips moved, and she said in a clear voice.
Li Dao didn't speak, but responded to Yan's words with his actions. His lips touched hers, and theirs intertwined. His hands were eager to climb the highest peak...
Whoosh! Just then, the tent flap suddenly moved, and A-Zhui and Mo-Yi pushed it open and came in, and then they saw this scene.
"Ahem, it seems we've come at the wrong time." A-Zhui and Mo-Yi exchanged a glance, both seeing the blush rising on each other's cheeks, and were about to slowly retreat again.
But Li Dao's next words almost scared the two women out of their wits: "No, you've come at just the right time."
No, you already have Sister Yan, why would you want us? Although you are handsome, strong, brave, but... well, after they scolded you for a while, their hearts were slightly moved.
dong dong!
Li Dao could now see into people's hearts through their eyes, so he couldn't miss the changes in the two women's eyes. He immediately rewarded them with a delicious and crisp rock candy and said, "What are you thinking about? I can see through your inner thoughts."
Yan continued to touch her belly, appearing completely unconcerned.
"Ah?!" The two women winced in pain, and upon hearing Li Dao's words, they immediately stopped their inner thoughts and decided that they would no longer have any thoughts about Li Dao in the future.
But his words really make people overthink! Especially... especially the scene that just came in.
"Ahem! Alright, put away your inner thoughts. I'm quite interested in what you've been saying about Satan outside," Li Dao said.
Ah-Zhui and Mo-Yi exchanged glances, and then the former began to recount his experiences from the Civil War to Satan to the present day, which made Li Dao increasingly interested in it.
A demon who doesn't want to be the king of demons isn't a good demon. Clearly, this mutated demon named Satan is a good demon among demons, actually trying to create a situation where two dragons coexist, to give Morgana a blow!
Although the demons that are transformed are born with a subservient attitude towards Morgana, if this attitude is erased and they are given a way to rise, wouldn't that be a sure way to split the demon army?
The demon belongs to Morgana, the mutated demon belongs to Satan, and someday in the future, the two may even wage war over who is the rightful heir, since the winner is the rightful heir and the losers go to the island.
Jie Jie Jie!
Chapter 193 Martial Will, Primordial True Demon Lord! (4k)
"My lord, how long should we hide? If we continue, I fear the Holy Kingdom of Ailan will send troops to annihilate us." Lucifer, dressed in a black robe and hood, looked at Satan, who was dressed similarly, and asked in a low voice.
The six demons beside him, dressed similarly, also looked at Satan, who was the leader. After all, their king was clever, and if they were to think for themselves, they would probably just start a massacre, which would then be discovered by the Holy Kingdom of Ailan, who would eventually send troops to wipe them out.
Satan looked at the people coming and going outside the alley and shook his head: "No rush. That angel outside is very likely waiting for us. Going out now would be tantamount to suicide. Send more believers to search for facilities in the city and see if there are any other ways out here."
“After all, a large city can’t only have one way out, the city gate. Otherwise, how would these high-ranking figures escape if the enemy attacked and surrounded the city? When I was a strategist in the northern tribes, I knew to leave at least three escape routes. These people can’t be that stupid.”
"We'll make the arrangements now." The seven demons nodded and quickly left.
Although they are not at the level of a first-generation demon warrior, they are far superior to humans, especially in this country that resembles the Western Middle Ages on Earth. Their strength can be described as superhuman.
Soon, they disappeared.
Satan's shadowy eyes flickered, as if he were plotting something. He turned to leave the dim alley, but his gaze fell upon a person blocking his way.
The newcomer was handsome and dashing, yet possessed a certain heroic air. In particular, his eyes, like stars in the night sky, sent shivers down Satan's spine, as if the other man had seen right through him. A nameless rage surged within him.
However, Satan, who called himself the Demon King of Frieza, could not control this nameless rage. Moreover, it was someone who could silently appear behind it. Satan had never seen the person dressed before, so it dared not make any rash moves.
"Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?" Satan suppressed his anger, his gloomy eyes calming down. Since he had decided not to act rashly, he was prepared to be amicable.
Satan is no coward; he is daring and ruthless, and not lacking in intelligence. But such actions precisely demonstrate his exceptional brilliance. To anger a powerful enemy of mysterious origin is tantamount to digging his own grave.
Li Dao looked at the hideous demonic face under the hood, his eyes gleaming with cunning and treachery. Although his eyes revealed ferocity and cruelty, it was merely an outward appearance.
"Let's see if you have the potential to become the Demon King." Li Dao spoke calmly, his voice like a sharp blade, nakedly cutting into the deepest desires of Satan's heart.
A subtle change appeared on Satan's ferocious face, and the sharp hands hidden under his black robe twitched slightly, clearly indicating that he intended to make a move. However, seeing the mysterious young man in front of him with an intrigued expression, he ultimately calmed down.
Li Dao had seen all these changes. He knew that after saying those words, Satan would definitely be murderous and might even try to kill him without hesitation. But he didn't expect the other party to be so rational.
Faced with a mysterious figure who knew his secrets, Satan was able to maintain his rationality, which made Li Daogao take him seriously.
"You were sent to me by an angel?" Satan's voice was hoarse and deep, as if something was stuck in his throat.
Li Dao shook his head and smiled gently: "No, you are not worth killing personally. You are too weak."
Upon hearing the young man's words, Satan's ferocious face flashed with displeasure and anger, and the veins beneath his black skin throbbed a few times. His voice was hoarse as he said, "You underestimate me, don't you?"
"You can try it if you don't believe me." A smile appeared in Li Dao's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Satan's anger vanished, and his hand, hidden in his black robe, suddenly shot out. The nails on his five fingers were incredibly sharp; even in the dim alley, the razor-sharp nails could be seen gleaming with a cold light.
It was obvious that it wanted to test Li Dao; otherwise, it wouldn't have made such a pointless attempt. After all, caution was necessary when faced with someone who suddenly appeared.
Li Dao's words were exactly what it wanted to hear.
If the person in front of it is all show and no substance, then it's just scaring itself. If that person dies, then so be it. But if that person is truly powerful, then it can cooperate with them for mutual benefit.
You're really here, aren't you, bro?
With a thought, Li Dao unleashed a martial will that surpassed all others.
Bang! The instant the martial will emerged, Satan's face paled, his eyes filled with terror, and his legs went weak as he knelt on the ground, uttering a faint, almost inaudible sound: "How is this possible?!"
His voice trembled, revealing deep fear.
It saw a scene: the world was vast, all nations came to pay homage, and a mighty figure, so powerful that the space itself trembled, sat on a throne, surrounded by beautiful women and white-winged angels. All civilizations prostrated themselves at his feet, and even the demons, representing him, knelt before that powerful figure.
Li Dao looked at Satan kneeling on the ground, listening to him mutter "How is that possible?", and shook his head.
Your willpower is too weak, Brother Lao, you still need to train!
Li Dao reached out and grabbed Satan's shoulder, then vanished instantly.
Not long after, Li Dao brought Satan to a lush and spacious forest outside the city. Seeing that the other party was still muttering to himself, he slapped him twice across the face.
With this kind of willpower, you're going to be the Demon King? I'm really afraid you'll be easily defeated by Morgana.
"What's wrong with me?" After two slaps, Satan instantly sobered up, looked up at Li Dao, then quickly looked away and lowered his head, appearing obedient and docile.
Seeing Satan's appearance, Li Dao stroked his chin: "Could it be because of the evolution of fist intent that martial will has gained the ability to tame people? Or is it because my martial will has shattered Satan's will, causing his spiritual will to be imprinted with my unique mark?"
"Fine, I'll give it a try." Thinking this, Li Dao looked at Satan, who was bowing his head and not daring to look him in the eye. One second he was arrogant and domineering, and the next he was as obedient as a dog.
“Satan, bark like a dog,” Li Dao tried.
"?" Upon hearing this, Satan's eyes flashed with anger, as if he were humiliated by Li Dao. If looks could kill, he would have killed the other party a hundred or eighty times over.
Seeing that Satan remained unmoved, Li Dao conducted several more experiments and quickly came to a conclusion about the speculation on martial will: "It seems to be the second speculation: imprinting a unique mark to ensure that the other party cannot betray you, and you can still sense the other party's presence and briefly control your body through your perspective."
"Although I can't control them like puppets, I can at least ensure that those branded with my unique mark won't have any disloyal thoughts. This makes my undercover plan even more perfect. But I need to occupy a planet first, and then work hard to develop its value. Then I'll show Morgana what a capable assistant is."
So Li Dao told Satan a series of plans. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the undercover operation, he also devised several plans to ensure that no accidents would happen.
Having obtained the plan, Satan immediately recalled Lucifer and other trusted demons. Then, Li Dao used the same method on them, with Satan recounting Li Dao's undercover plan.
"This is the cultivation method that I have deduced based on your bodies and is most suitable for you." After saying this, Li Dao flicked his finger, and a wisp of Qi transformed into eight parts and entered Satan and the others' minds.
"True demonic art?!" Satan and the other demons, upon viewing the contents of the technique, felt a surge of excitement as their狰狞 faces beneath their black robes began to resemble a ladder climbing upwards.
"You should cultivate according to the content path first, and I will improve your strength first," Li Daoneng said, sensing the emotions of the demons.
Upon hearing this, the demons sat cross-legged according to the instructions of the technique, awkwardly adopting the posture of facing the sky with their five hearts facing upwards.
Li Dao stepped forward, his palm brushing across Satan's horned forehead, and the Qi within his body transformed into a massive amount of energy that flowed into him.
In an instant, Satan's red veins bulged, and his body hidden under the black robe began to swell. His rugged horns grew thicker, and the energy within his body was being frantically and greedily absorbed by his cells according to the path of the True Demon Art.
Li Dao didn't linger and continued to infuse energy into the next demon. Because the strength of each demon was different, he was also keeping a close eye on the critical point to prevent any demon from exploding due to the inability to withstand it.
A moment later, all eight demons received an energy infusion, and their invisible aura rose steadily. Li Dao quietly watched them.
About half an hour later, Satan was the first to absorb the energy. He opened his eyes, and his body had expanded. His bone density, cell activity, and muscle strength had all been greatly improved, and his strength had reached the level of a second-generation demon warrior.
Of course, this refers to meeting the data requirements, but if Satan cultivates the "True Demon Art," his actual combat strength is probably stronger than that of an ordinary second-generation demon warrior.
