Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1082: The Soul-suppressing Beast Isn’t Dead Either
"Not only is the Demon Lord not dead, but that thing isn’t either. It has also been reincarnated, and its awakening is only a matter of time." The energy within Jun Moyan’s body is only temporarily sealed. It’s only a matter of time before he turns back into the Soul-suppressing Beast.
"Are you talking about the Soul-suppressing Beast?!" An Elder exclaimed in shock.
"Yes."
Another eerie silence followed.
Two bombshell-like pieces of news in a row make it quite hard for people to digest.
"They actually both aren’t dead..." An Elder sighed.
The mood was hard to define.
The fact that the Soul-suppressing Beast isn’t dead is actually something quite comforting for everyone.
After all, it’s the only spiritual creature in existence. Without it guarding the Netherworld, chaos is inevitable.
Its return to the Netherworld to continue its guardianship is naturally a good thing.
But if the Demon Lord isn’t dead either... if they start clashing again, that would be no good, it would be a disaster.
"It’s not dead, which is both reasonable yet unexpected. After all, if the Demon Lord isn’t dead, how could a spiritual creature that has lived for tens of thousands of years easily have its soul scattered?"
With the Demon Lord’s reincarnation happening first, the matter of the Soul-suppressing Beast is no longer so hard to accept for everyone.
"The Demon Lord has already regained part of his strength, but due to old enemies in the Immortal Realm, he doesn’t dare return to the Demon Realm just yet. He’s chosen to temporarily hide in the Human Realm and has already set his sights on the still dormant Soul-suppressing Beast. I boldly speculate that the Soul Gathering Umbrella our Cat Demon Clan lost is likely stolen by the Demon Lord. He probably wants to gather the other soul fragments of the Soul-suppressing Beast and use it to restore his strength and return to the Demon Realm." Feng Liyan’s conjecture was entirely correct.
"Medicine King, how do you know all this?" An Elder couldn’t help but ask, then immediately clarified, "Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean anything else... I just..."
"I know what you want to say, Elder Mu. I discovered the Blood Crow of the Demon Realm in the Human Realm and traced it from there."
Feng Liyan had to say it this way because he couldn’t tell them that Wen Xiao’ai’s soul is Shang Ying’s, and the Demon Lord already knows this...
After listening, the Elders were silent for a moment. An Elder stroked his beard and said, "Our Cat Demon Clan doesn’t hold any old grudges against either the Demon Lord or the Soul-suppressing Beast. Their life or death actually doesn’t concern us much. However, if the Demon Lord can’t successfully use the Soul-suppressing Beast to restore his strength and instead awakens the Soul-suppressing Beast, then another great battle may be unavoidable. Innocent people will suffer."
"Elders, let’s not tell the Little Princess about the matters of the Demon Lord and the Soul-suppressing Beast. She’s still young, and I don’t want her getting involved in these matters," said Feng Liyan.
"Though the Little Princess is still young, she is, after all, a princess of the clan. Now that the Clan Leader is in seclusion, as a princess, she should shoulder the burden. We can protect her for a while, but not for a lifetime. She should also start to mature. Remember, back in the day, Princess Changfeng and General Liuye protected the entire Demon Realm..."
The Princess Changfeng and General Liuye mentioned by this Elder are Wen Xiao’ai’s parents.
The Elder’s words made several other Elders nod in agreement.
However, it made Feng Liyan frown slightly.
This comment also brought about dissatisfaction from Elder Ye.
"Elder Tian." Elder Ye interrupted, his tone slightly displeased.
"We elders are far from being unable to wield a sword. Do you think it’s appropriate to put a child in front of us?"
