Chapter 2388 Devil's Liquid, Can't Drink It, A Discount
Chu Kuangren's heart felt a little heavy after listening to the Devil King's story.
Compared to the Infinity War, the Void Ruler and the Doomsday Darkness were just appetizers. Even the Human Ancestor fell during the war.
Once it arrived, the loss of lives would be an understatement as countless universes would be destroyed. If the Pan Gu Universe was caught in the flames of war, it would be ruined.
Chu Kuangren took a deep breath. He could not allow it to happen!
"Maybe it's still too early to tell you this," the Devil King said with a sigh when she saw the grim look on Chu Kuangren's face.
Even she, a Great Dao Being who had lived for many eras and could rival a Source Being, was worried about the future, let alone the young Monarch.
"No, it's okay. I can be prepared for it," Chu Kuangren said.
The Devil King looked at him with relief.
Back in the day, the Human Ancestor was one of the leaders of the protection side, and the Devil King saw endless potential in Chu Kuangren to become the second Human Ancestor.
Before this, she simply assumed he could be an ally to her. Now, he could become more than just an ally.
"Oh, right. If the Void Ruler and the others on the destruction side want to wipe out all life, the Spatial Tribe and the tribes they created are also targets. Is it possible to persuade them to stand with us and resist the Gods?"
Chu Kuangren might have a grudge against the Spatial Tribe, but rather than wiping them out, he might as well try to make them cannon fodders in the war.
"It won't work. The beings created by the Gods have the potential to surpass their Gods, but only a handful of them can. Most of the beings can't defy their Gods. Besides, the Void Ruler and other Gods can easily open up an individual space to keep their own creations. When the Infiniverse resets, they can just bring them back out," the Devil King said.
Chu Kuangren was left speechless to learn that the Gods on the destruction side wanted to wipe out all lives but their own creation. Double standard much?
In simpler words, the reset of the Infiniverse might be just an excuse. They wanted to wipe out other beings who stood against them and then share the resources of the universe with those who shared the same ideals.
"My King, the Dark Demonic Ruler is requesting a meeting."
The Succubus Archduke came in with a message.
"Bring him in."
A while later, the Dark Demonic Ruler came in, and when he saw Chu Kuangren, he was stunned. He said with a smile, "It's been a while, Master of Destiny."
"Huh?"
The Devil King was surprised when she heard the Dark Demonic Ruler. She looked at Chu Kuangren in shock and asked, "You're the Master of Destiny?"
Since Chu Kuangren did not need to hide his identity anymore, he nodded and admitted it. "I am."
"Little One, how many more secrets are you keeping from me?"
The Devil King thought she knew Chu Kuangren quite well after observing and spending time with him, yet he was far more deceptive than she thought.
His secrets were like a massive onion. No matter how many layers she peeled, she could not reach the truth.
Chu Kuangren awkwardly scratched his nose and did not comment on it.
His biggest secret was the Fantasy Roulette, but he could not tell anyone about it.
"For what do I owe the visit?" the Devil King asked the Dark Demonic Ruler.
"I have found clues about the matter you asked of me."
"Oh? Enlighten me."
The Devil King was intrigued.
She had made a deal with the Dark Demonic Ruler in the past. The Dark Demonic Ruler wanted her to help the Radiant Goddess at the Radiant Tribe and deal with the Doomsday Darkness, so she got him to find her an Ultimate Supreme Weapon.
"The thing you're looking for might very well be in the Heavenly Buddhist Pure Land."
"Heavenly Buddhist Pure Land?"
Surprised, the Devil King chuckled and said, "If the Buddhist world is willing to spare their energy to cover it, it can suppress the endless evil intent on that thing. No wonder I haven't been able to find it for so long."
Then, she looked at Chu Kuangren. "That thing belongs to me, and the Heavenly Buddhist Pure Land took it by force. Actually, with my personality, I could siege the pure land and snatch it back. However, for your sake, I can give them a chance to hand it over, and I'll pretend nothing happened."
The Heavenly Buddhist Pure Land and Heavenly Human Sanctuary were both Human Sanctuaries.
The Devil King knew Chu Kuangren was protective of the human race, so she made him run an errand for her.
"I understand."
Chu Kuangren nodded and asked the Devil King for some time to solve this matter.
"Alright. Now that we've talked about business, let's eat."
The Devil King clapped her hands, and several succubuses came in with multiple alluring dishes.
"Have a taste of my tribe's specialty, the Devil's Liquid," the Devil King said as she raised her glass for a toast.
Chu Kuangren looked curiously at the wine in the glass. It was crimson and looked delicious.
The Devil's Liquid was a wine that the Devil Tribe took pride in. It was said that a jar of Devil's Liquid could sell for tens of thousands of Great Dao Sources.
No common cultivator could get a drop of it.
It was the first time Chu Kuangren was trying it, so he picked up the glass, and the aroma of wine charmed his nose.
It smelled amazing, like a woman's bodily scent.
However, right before he could take a sip, Lil Ai's voice rang in his mind. "Master, don't drink it!"
Chu Kuangren's eyes narrowed. "It's poisoned?"
"No."
"If not, why can't I drink it?"
"The wine is a little special. It's made with the succubus' bodily fluid. If you can accept it, please go ahead."
Lil Ai's comment silenced Chu Kuangren.
A moment of silence later, he put the glass down.
The Devil's Liquid was, as its name suggested, the bodily liquid of the devil!
The Dark Demonic Ruler enjoyed it as if it was the best wine in the world. "The Devil's Liquid is great! It's rich, aromatic, and sweet down the throat. It really does live up to its reputation!"
Chu Kuangren did not say anything. As long as the man was happy, it was fine. "What's wrong, little one? You don't like the wine?"
"I have my own, and I'm quite used to the flavor already. I can't get used to drinking other wine." Chu Kuangren smiled and took out a jar of A Fleeting Dream.
Even though the succubuses were beautiful and their bodily fluid was considered the rarest dew by others, Chu Kuangren just could not accept it.
"Is that so?"
The Devil King looked at his profound smile but did not say anything.
After the meal, Chu Kuangren left the Devil's Territory.
Before he left, the Dark Demonic Ruler asked him about the Radiant Goddess.
"Are you worried about your sister?"
"I'm worried that if she died, I'd lose a rival. Wouldn't that be lonely?" the Dark Demonic Ruler said.
"Don't worry. She's fine. And this, I think I should give it back to you."
Chu Kuangren gave the Dark Ruler Amulet back to the Darkness Demonic Ruler. "Master of Destiny, the deal between you and I isn't done yet." the Dark Demonic Ruler said with a grin. "You said you would help me look for something to heal my injuries, but you've taken the benefits I gave you without fulfilling your promise. That's not nice."
"Destiny is always fair and never owes anyone. If there's another deal, I will give you a discount," Chu Kuangren said.
"Haha! It's a deal."
