Chapter 57: Luo Hou, Transformed into a Masterpiece!

This is the place.

Luo Hou smiled, but there was a bloody undertone to that smile. Ahead lay a dragon stronghold where an innate spiritual vein resided underground, and the dragon clan had stationed an elder here.

If the Qilin clan were to launch a surprise attack here, it would undoubtedly land a final blow on the already agitated three clans! With this in mind, Luo Hou leaped into the air, completely transforming into an elder of the Qilin clan! But unexpectedly, as he prepared to strike, a streak of crimson light sliced through the void, instantly trapping Luo Hou! The red light surged and forced him back into his true form!

“Golden Flame Five Phoenix Shield!”

Luo Hou’s expression changed dramatically as he looked at the artifact that enveloped him.

“Hehe, I never thought the Demon Lord Luo Hou would recognize this artifact!”

A figure draped in blazing divine flames stepped out from the void.

“Yuan Feng!”

Luo Hou calmed down after moments of panic from the surprise attack.

“How did you know it was me?” he asked, puzzled.

“Haha, of course, it was this young lady who devised the strategy!”

A small figure jumped out from behind Yuan Feng, a proud expression shining on the little loli’s face.

Luo Hou glanced over and realized that the qi he had encountered on his way had indeed matched that of the Qilin clan.

“You can’t be serious and think that you alone can do anything!”

Luo Hou scoffed with a sneer, dark energy surging around him as a twelve-petal black lotus of annihilation slowly emerged beneath him.

The black lotus revolved slowly, radiating waves of destructive energy as its black petals flickered in the air, beautiful yet dark. The divine flames of the five fire phoenixes couldn’t penetrate its defenses.

“But we still have us!”

A voice halted Luo Hou’s smile.

The Ancestral Dragon and Shi Qilin emerged from either side, followed by dozens of top-tier experts. They were all peak Taiyi Golden Immortals, representing the extraordinary foundation of the three clans! The three great figures led their clan elites in a three-talented formation that perfectly trapped Luo Hou in the center! Luo Hou’s expression shifted from calm to bewildered.

His eyes shone with confusion as he asked, “Why can you three clans unite against me? Did I inadvertently expose anything?”

At this point, he realized that his attempts to exacerbate the conflict between the three clans had been uncovered.

“Still calling yourself a demon lord? How foolish! Didn’t the little loli just say that we informed you all?”

Dragon Shao stepped forward proudly, even twisting his dragon body to flaunt it towards the formidable mastermind behind the scenes.

Luo Hou struggled, staring at the three powerful beings and the multitude of experts.

“Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Feng, Shi Qilin, and esteemed friends, you are all renowned figures in this world. How could you shamelessly gang up on me like this? What have I done to deserve your united front?”

Saying this, Luo Hou laughed self-deprecatingly.

Upon hearing these words, many experts displayed awkward expressions. Even the Ancestral Dragon and Shi Qilin hesitated a bit; there’s no denying that at the beginning of the world, everyone was relatively innocent and hadn’t yet faced the harsh realities of society.

Yet the very next moment, a single sentence shattered the last glimmer of hope in Luo Hou’s heart.

“He’s the Demon Lord! There’s no need to speak of kindness and morality! Let’s all attack together!” The voice belonged to the little loli! Flapping her flaming wings, she encouraged all the experts to launch a joint assault. Hearing this from the little loli, the experts of the three clans gathered their resolve, extinguishing the shred of embarrassment that had recently surfaced.

Indeed, he provoked and calculated against them; how could they discuss kindness and morality with him? Seeing the situation revert to its original state, Luo Hou was shocked and shook his head, lamenting, “I thought myself deceitful, but I never expected you to be even more sinister!”

“You guys regard yourselves as players, huh? I never thought that I, Luo Hou, would end up caught in your hands after dominating for so long!”

Luo Hou gritted his teeth, “You don’t think I’ll just sit here and wait for you to take me down, do you?”

Zizz!

The twelve-petal black lotus of annihilation rotated rapidly, scattering pollen everywhere as Luo Hou’s body grew larger, seemingly about to transform into Pangu herself to cleave the heavens. A blood-red spear brimming with killing intent appeared in his hand! Bam! The God-Slaying Spear erupted in sinister light, instantly shattering the Golden Flame Five Phoenix Shield. “Today, let me see the true strength of the three strongest clans of the Primordial World!” Luo Hou raised his spear and roared, but within his heart arose a sea of anguish.

Why? Why did it come to this? I devised an unprecedented scheme. I had the chance to become a saint.

Two pieces of happiness coincided. Yet these two pieces of happiness brought me even more joy. What I obtained should have been a time of bliss like a dream…

But why did it turn out like this?

Boom! Luo Hou surged upwards with bloodshot eyes. How could the experts of the three clans be trivial? The Ancestral Dragon and his two companions were mighty figures who could stand on par with him, not to mention the other powerful experts aiding them! “Set up the Myriad Dragons and Four Seas Formation!”

“Set up the Undying Phoenix Formation!”

“Set up the Five Elements Qilin Formation!”

The three great clan defense formations were instantly activated, igniting the previously prepared divine materials that lit up the innate spiritual vein below. This place transformed into a chaotic realm once again!

Luo Hou, who had soared into the sky, was violently suppressed back down!

At this moment, on the eastern side of this realm, divine light surged. Even beings miles away could see it clearly! Countless killing intents soared into the sky, alarming even the stars beyond the universe!

On Yujing Mountain, Hongjun’s expression changed drastically as floating dust trembled unnervingly. He hastily calculated with his fingers; the Creation Jade Plate on his primordial spirit turned continuously, channeling the Dao’s essence in an attempt to decipher the heavenly secrets.

“Unexpectedly, it’s these players again!” Hongjun exclaimed in bewilderment.

These so-called players, who were aliens, seemed to have obtained quite a few heavenly secrets through their own celestial wandering and eavesdropping on their discussions.

Clearly, they possessed feeble strengths yet loved to stir up trouble, thriving in chaos!

At this moment, Hongjun calculated that his lifelong enemy was in dire straits, being besieged by the three clan experts, but he could not feel the slightest happiness! “Haha! So, how’s this plan of mine?”

In major boss battles, these players were not likely to interfere. The little loli kept taking screenshots, unable to resist showcasing her exploits on the forum.

Dragon Shao: “You dark little loli, that’s quite cunning! Clearly, it’s the joint effort of the three clan players. How did it morph into your scheme?” As images were uploaded, netizens gazed in awe at the towering Ancestral Dragon, their aura regal, like a prison of divine authority.

A phoenix, radiating with colorful flames, was triumphantly roaring through the primordial realm.

Meanwhile, a massive Qilin, exuding auspiciousness, was charging in, its form identical to five elements.

And at the center of this scene stood Luo Hou, battered and bloodied!

The once invincible demon lord had fallen into such a state, and netizens erupted with laughter.

“Haha, isn’t that the one who claimed to be the mastermind behind the chaos, provoking countless beings into conflict? Why does he look so miserable now?”

“I can’t stop laughing! So, you all feigned this just to nail Luo Hou this time! I reckon he’s as good as dead now!”

Watching the live stream of this earth-shattering battle, netizens were in fits of laughter. Each player shared in the glory; after all, they orchestrated this! Without their plans, the three clans would still be foolishly at each other’s throats!

The little loli kept uploading battlefield photos, and netizens couldn’t contain their laughter, feeling that this battle far surpassed any blockbuster movie.

Observing the Ancestral Dragon’s towering figure repeatedly slam Luo Hou back into the center of the formation, the ancient trees within a hundred meters collapsed, the primal forest nearly turning to ash.

The divine flames illuminated the world, and the colorful Yuan Feng incinerated the void, causing the twelve-petal black lotus to falter as Luo Hou was consumed by the blaze, his once-flowing black hair now charred.

The Five Elements Qilin suppressed the surroundings, and whenever Luo Hou attempted to escape into the void or ground, he was bumped back; he was now covered in dust with a faint whiff of burning aromas!

There was no path to heaven nor any way down! Luo Hou’s eyes glistened with despair and tears. This tear signified regret and confusion! Clearly, everything had gone according to script, so why had the three clans attacked him so relentlessly? In this moment, he regretted not listening to the Qilin player he encountered on the road.

“I won’t give in to you!”

Luo Hou bellowed, unable to endure the relentless beating. Four almost fully-formed killing swords were ejected from his body. “Haha, world-class masterpiece, the great demon lord Luo Hou has actually been reduced to this pathetic state!”

Netizens responded with laughter; Luo Hou appeared utterly miserable! His head was bloodied and his hair charred; the twelve-petal black lotus was on the verge of shattering, and the shattered lotus fragments became the backdrop, emphasizing how miserable the demon lord appeared!

“No! I have to save this picture as my wallpaper! I want to look at it twice a day and enjoy twelve hours of laughter from it. Luo Hou is now my daily source of amusement!”

“Hey! Don’t you have any humanity? Luo Hou has been thrashed like this, and he’s even using the still-developing Four Swords to Vanquish Immortals! Yet, you still laugh at him? Hahaha! I can’t hold back!”

“We are professionally trained to maintain our composure; no matter how funny it gets, we won’t laugh unless we absolutely can’t help it! Haha, this time I genuinely can’t help it! The little loli and Dragon Shao did a fantastic job! I’ve always looked askance at that cunning Luo Hou!”

Netizens highly praised the players for finally cornering the number one mastermind in the Primordial World! Some even urged, “With the demon lord dead, when can we deal with the number one fat sheep in the Primordial World? Let’s ensure that the two rivals can continue their love-hate relationship underground.”

North Mysterious Rain quickly responded, “Indeed, the Extinction Dao Plan seems ready for a restart!”

The players may not take down the Hongjun boss directly, but they could call upon the strong forces of the three clans! The forum was filled with laughter; netizens munched on snacks while witnessing the grand battle.

“These guys spend all their time instigating trouble, and this time they finally caught a big fish!” Jiang Ping laughed as he sat before his notebook.

The hunter eventually gets hunted.
