Just Wanting to Live a Good Life, but Surpassed the Protagonist – 52 Revenge Plan

Level 4 Demon Locking Array, which could have a great impact on demon clan and demon beast at the Nascent Soul stage and below.

The principle of the Demon Locking Array was to restrict the flow of demon qi, thereby weakening the demon clan and demon beasts. There was also a Spirit Locking Array, which was specifically used to deal with human cultivators.

Although these monsters had never been out of the secret realm, their instincts made them react and try to escape from the array immediately. However, there was more than one array. There was also a powerful array. As soon as they came into contact with the edge of the array, a Nascent Soul stage attack would be launched, instantly killing the weaker ones.

“Don’t move!” The two great demons tried to stay calm, figuring that the human who had set up the formation was no pushover. But the secret realm had restrictions. Nascent Soul cultivators couldn’t enter, so could it be a group of Core Formation cultivators who were proficient in formations?

“Who is it? Show yourself!” The great demons looked around but saw no one. Instead, they saw a weak demon beast brazenly ignoring the formation and walking out of it.

“How did you do that?” The demon beasts were shocked.

“I set up the formation, so I have control over it. Is it strange that I can come and go as I please?” The weakling sneered, and then his appearance to change into that of a human male began dressed in white.

“Foundation Establishment?” The great demons were dumbfounded. It wasn’t a group of Core Formation cultivators skilled in formations as they had thought, but a single Foundation Establishment cultivator? That made them even more nervous instead of looking down on the young man before them. If their guess was correct, this was the strange Foundation Establishment cultivator who had wiped out over a hundred thousand demon beasts and escaped from Lord Blackwind with two injuries.

The great demons never would have guessed that one day, they would be the ones surrounded instead of the other way around, especially when they had so many underlings and the other side had only one person.

“What is your purpose?” Since he hadn’t killed them but had trapped them instead, Great Demon Ye Yong must have some plan. Just as they were about to show their indomitable spirit of preferring death to submission, Ye Yong suddenly activated the Trapping formation, killing hundreds of their demon beasts, leaving only a dozen or so.

Not only did the surviving demon beasts tremble in fear, but the two great demons couldn’t help but shiver as well.

Just who was this person? How could he be so ruthless?

“It’s not your turn to question me. I’m the one asking the questions.” Ye Yong’s expression was blank as his gaze swept over the demon beasts, scaring them so much that they didn’t dare to look him in the eye. “How many Demon Kings are guarding the secret realm exit?”

The great demons didn’t answer immediately. Seeing this, Ye Yong immediately killed a few more demon beasts.

Although Ye Yong hadn’t studied psychology, he knew from reading so many novels that he couldn’t give them too much time to think. He had to put psychological pressure on them and greatly shorten the time they had to answer, which would ensure the accuracy of their answers.

After all, lying required time to think. They didn’t know what Ye Yong would ask, so not having time to think meant they wouldn’t have time to lie.

“Two! Two!” The great demons hurriedly told him what they knew, afraid that if their underlings died, they would be next.

“What are their names? What are their cultivation levels?” Ye Yong pressed on.

“One is Lord Blackfire, a second-level Demon King. The other is Lord Blackwind, a ninth-level Demon King. Lord Blackwind is Lord Blackfire’s father.”

“Tell me about the one called Blackwind. Who are his relatives? Does he have any proud disciples?”

Seeing that the two great demons were starting to think, Ye Yong killed a few more demon beasts, not caring whether they were recalling information or thinking of something else.

Ye Yong let the remaining few demon beasts out of the formation, signaling that they could leave the valley the way they had come.

The demon beasts didn’t even bother to think and ran away without looking back. They quickly disappeared around the corner of the valley.

“They’re alive because you answered my questions just now. The ones who died are because you answered too slowly. My time is limited. If you keep dawdling, I’ll just kill you and find someone else to talk to.”

Seeing that a few of their underlings had left, the two great demons saw a glimmer of hope and rushed to answer all of Ye Yong’s questions.

“We’ve told you everything. Can you let us go now?” The great demons looked cautiously at Ye Yong, who was standing on the hill.

As soon as Ye Yong lifted the formation, they would run away as fast as they could and then bring reinforcements back to hunt down this little human brat who had made them lose all face.

“Of course not.” Ye Yong was smiling one second and expressionless the next. “When you were killing humans, did you ever think about letting them go?”

Activating the formation, Ye Yong effortlessly killed the two great demons who were desperately resisting.

Looking at the pile of demon beast corpses above the Crystallization stage in the formation, Ye Yong sighed.

If other cultivators saw this, they would definitely be overjoyed, thinking it was a great harvest. But to Ye Yong, this was the result of spending over ten thousand Reversal Points.

With over ten thousand Reversal Points, he didn’t know how many pills he could buy.

However, these losses were unavoidable. Although the demon beast corpses couldn’t be directly converted into Reversal Points, they could be taken back to the sect and exchanged for other resources.

Ye Yong had bought several storage bags with large spaces and put the corpses inside. He then cleaned up the bloodstains and removed the smell. He then went to the corner of the valley exit and collected the demon beasts that he had seemingly let go but had actually killed with a hidden formation. After repeating the same cleaning process, he started looking for the next batch of demon beasts.

As long as he had enough spirit stones, the two formations could operate continuously for a day, so he had to make the most of it and kill as many demon beasts as possible to make up for the cost.

Even if he didn’t make up for the cost, capturing a few more batches of demon beasts to interrogate could ensure the accuracy of the information, so it was always a good thing.

———

After a day of hard work, Ye Yong had killed ten batches of demon beasts. He had interrogated the first three batches, but after getting the same answers as before and no additional information, he began to harvest ruthlessly.

If the secret realm was a large-scale human slaughterhouse, then this valley had been turned into a small-scale demon beast slaughterhouse by Ye Yong.

Due to the high-load operation, the main materials of the formation had been damaged and were close to being scrapped. The storage bags were also full. Ye Yong stopped luring pigs to the slaughter.

From the demon beasts, he had learned that the late-stage Demon King Blackwind had two sons, one named Blackfire and the other named Blackhand, both of whom were second-level Demon Kings. In addition to his sons, he also had three disciples .

Ye Yong had basically mastered the information about their abilities and information. The next step was to carry out his revenge plan.

The main goal of the plan could be summed up in one sentence: to enrage Blackwind so much that he would want to tear Ye Yong into a thousand pieces with his own hands.

There are many ways to provoke someone to that extent, such as sleeping with their wife.

Demon kings value their reputation, especially males. If their wives are cheated on, and the entire secret realm’s demonic beasts find out, who could withstand that? They would definitely go berserk.

However, his wife had died more than ten years ago. Even if she were alive, Ye Yong wouldn’t have that much time to pursue a female demonic beast. Therefore, the simplest and most direct method was to kill his son and his favorite disciple.
