Chapter 427: Demon King Subjugation
Chapter 427: Demon King Subjugation
Right after Luna led her extermination team to the sealed secret realm, they were greeted by the brutality of the demons.
These evil things hunted the demi-humans, especially the foxkin who were famous for their physique and were usually treated as ’prey’ to improve one’s cultivation.
Children and women were held captive, while the men and elderly were slaughtered or refined into elixir with intolerable cruelty.
"This is indeed the law of nature in the cruel world. Unfortunately, they encounter us and this will spell their doom." Vanessa bared her fangs.
"Our master wants us to give this sealed secret realm freedom. Slaughter those demons. Leave none alive!" Lynn raised her sword, leading the troops to invade the first city occupied by demons.
Dozens of elites and mechs rushed to follow Lynn’s lead. Vanessa’s troops soon followed suit. However, Luna and Yuuki stayed behind to oversee the overall situation.
"Ha ha ha!" The big demon licked his lips and pulled a fox girl out of the metal cage.
"Hngh!" The terrified fox girl closed her eyes, surrendering to the situation with snots and tears.
However, the demon suddenly split into two and burned in blue flames.
The terrified fox girl widened her eyes in shock. Simultaneously with the death of the demon, she also fell to the ground with a loud thud.
"Exterminate!" Vanessa brandished her spear and led the exterminators at the forefront, showering the demons with wind blades and ferocious lightning.
"Quick, go to the back line. We shall exterminate all the demons." Lynn swung her sword, cutting the ropes and binding the prisoners.
"Thank you, thank you, savior! Please, please save our kin!" The terrified fox girl kowtowed to express her gratitude.
The other prisoners also kowtowed, but Lynn urged them to move immediately.
"We can’t protect you on the battlefield. Quickly retreat in that direction. Our backers stayed at the back line." Lynn pointed at her mother’s troops in the distance.
The survivors expressed their gratitude once again before running in the designated direction. Since their savior was one of their kin, they had no other things that came to their minds besides obeying the command.
The pure terror that occurred in the last few days caused them to be helpless. They could do nothing but hold on to the glimmer of hope that remained.
With around a hundred elites led by a 10th Rank white tigress and an 8th Rank soul vixen, the first city was taken over in just five minutes.
Hundreds of demons were exterminated without any remains, and dozens of prisoners were rescued. Unfortunately, they could do nothing for the victims who were already dead.
*Rumble!*
A high-level Emperor-class clash broke out in the distance, attracting everyone’s attention. Luna squinted her eyes and glanced at Yuuki with a tacit understanding, indicating the primary demon army might be there.
"We’re moving out. Everyone, advance to the capital, and eradicate all the demons on the way! We need to take down the enemy’s leaders." Luna gave her order before flying off to the high-level clash in the distance, followed by Yuuki and Lynn.
"What about me?" Vanessa followed, pointing to her face.
"Please lead our army. Exterminate them." Luna left the most important assignment for Vanessa.
"Mkay!" Vanessa saluted and returned to the army. Since her sisters had to hunt the Demon King and high-level demon leaders, then she received four forces to lead.
"..." Vanessa looked at the terrified survivors with a sigh, wondering about why the local inhabitants were so weak.
This realm declined so much. It only took a demon army led by an insignificant Demon King to ravage the entire kingdom.
Regardless, this demon army violated Goddess Ely’s rule regarding foxkin as friends, not food.
"We shall advance. These demons ignored our master’s warning. Extermination is the only fate that awaits them!" Vanessa raised her spear, gathering everyone’s fighting spirit.
"Extermination to the demon violators!" The troops raised their weapons, responding with their battle cry.
After that, Vanessa led the army to advance to the next fallen city to eradicate the demons and save the survivors.
The saved survivors also followed the line of fierce troops in the back row, guarded by several elites.

Meanwhile, Luna, Yuuki, and Lynn had just arrived at the location of the high-level clash. It was a city located not far from the heart of the realm and was most likely one of the important cities of this kingdom.
They assassinated several Demon Generals to ensure there were no threats above the 6th Rank that would get in the way.
However, the aura of an 8th Rank Demon King appeared. They immediately ceased their hunt and rushed to the location.
What they found at the scene was the defense troops suffered serious injuries with their Fox King and Fox Queen dying.
The Demon King laughed out loud and threw the Fox Queen like a trash bag, making the Fox King receive a qi devastation.
"..." Luna heaved a subtle sigh as the dying pink fox slowly crawled to the dead green fox.
Her assassination only took less than three minutes to eradicate several Demon Generals lurking around this region, but it caused them to arrive almost too late to save the most important figure in this realm.
"Freezing of life." Yuuki cast her Heavenly Ice, scattering countless icy snow from the sky to the ground.
The injured ones received a wound freeze to everyone within a two-kilometer radius regardless of whether they were demi-humans or demons, stopping further damage and ensuring they remained alive for a little longer.
"Is it fun to bully and play the weak to death? You demons are truly inelegant." Luna flew down to face the Demon King with a blatant taunt.
Yuuki wished to eradicate all the demons altogether in one fell swoop. She threw the tokens to the Demon King, indicating the Demon Generals were already dead.
---
"Mai..." Fox Queen Yun tried to reach her dead servant’s hand. She also crawled closer to her injured husband, but she received an incredibly painful fatal internal injury, and all her cultivation slowly left her body.
"Freeze." Yuuki froze the injured Fox Queen partially.
"How brave of you to present yourself to me. Two tasty bluish foxes and a nine-tailed snow fox? Interesting. Are you the foxkin ancestor?" Demon King Argus tried to measure the three stunning vixens before him carefully.
"!?" Fox King Bai almost exploded his spiritual sea due to qi deviation, but he tried his best to put everything under control. His body was also frozen partially because three mysterious experts came out of nowhere to help him.
His wife was still alive, only seriously injured. Therefore, he immediately secured his wife and withdrew to a safe distance.
"Husband, save Mai also..." Fox Queen Yun looked at her servant’s cold body. She only has a few trusted people closest to her. They were like her family members already, and one died before her eyes just like that.
"Demon King Argus, you violated Goddess Ely’s teachings and rules. Under the sovereignty of Sacred Sakura, we shall impose a punishment upon the violators." Luna put on white gloves with a graceful movement.
"Heh, how are you vixen chicks going to punish me? Let’s make a bet. If you succeed in defeating me, I will withdraw my troops. If you lose, you have to become my pet. How about that?" Demon King Argus got another idea when he realized these three exceptional beauties were much more attractive than the other foxkin, especially that nine-tailed snow-white vixen’s physique.
"We don’t bet on bad guys, especially the dead. Lynn, please kill him." Luna replied with a subtle smile.
"Yes, mother." Lynn brandished her longsword. She dashed like a specter and drew her sword for a deadly slash.
*Slash!*
Demon King Argus evaded the fatal strike by a hair, almost losing his head. He was so shocked to his core when he discovered the opponent was on par with him at 8th Rank, but he could barely see her movements!
"Hmph!" Lynn summoned her soul fox fire, burning the surrounding ground to create a soul fire domain.
Demon King Argus received a massive danger warning and quickly jumped into the air to avoid the blue fire.
Unfortunately, it was never a one-on-one battle. Yuuki released her ice arrow, penetrating the Demon King Argus’ shoulder.
"Argh!" Demon King Argus groaned in pain as his shoulders froze. He didn’t see that ice arrow was coming. He widened his eyes once he realized that the nine-tailed snow vixen was a Fox Deity!
"Where are you looking?" Lynn warped above the floating Demon King, hitting the enemy with a deadly blow straight to the nape.
The fierce battle lasted for another ten rounds and clashes. The half-frozen Demon King was defeated that quickly.
"Fall." Yuuki blocked the enemy’s spiritual energy, and Lynn came to inflict a blow, causing significant spiritual damage.
The Demon King didn’t seem to have received any significant injuries, but he was the only one who knew that he was fcked up.
"Pardon me, but we’re here to eradicate you. If you have a second chance, please be a good boy in your next life." Luna closed her eyes, still with her usual aloof subtle smile.
Unfortunately, it sent a shiver and tremendous pressure to the fallen Demon King.
Demon King Argus was about to speak something, but Luna waited nothing more. She thrust her hand into the Demon King’s back, pulling his soul out of his body.
Since their task was obvious, the great violators would receive no salvation other than extermination. Therefore, Luna crushed the soul into smithereens and burned the dead in the blue soul fire.
"The evil demon’s soul is so disgusting." Luna took off her gloves and threw them aside.
"Good job, Lynn." Yuuki raised a high five.
"Yay~" Lynn patted Yuuki’s palm.
Seeing the Demon King’s demise, the demon troops around the scene fled in all directions.
Their Demon Generals died mysteriously a few minutes ago, and their Demon King was killed a moment later. It was more than enough to break them down like ants fleeing from fire.
Fox King Bai and other warriors were still shocked. No words could describe their current feelings, but they soon came over to send their gratitude to their benefactors.
"Here, make them drink this. Save them before they die." Luna handed over several small vials of healing potion.
It couldn’t bring the dead back to life, but it was enough to help the dying away from death.
Fox King Bai expressed his gratitude. He received the favor and helped his wife to drink it. He also distributed the healing potion to the warriors who were seriously injured, leaving none for himself.
"You also need one. Don’t die in our hands." Yuuki handed over an extra healing potion vial into Fox King’s hand.
"We’re deeply grateful, benefactor. Thank you for saving our kin from the brutality of the demon invasion." Fox King Bai expressed his gratitude once again.
He looked up to appreciate the nine-tailed snow fox lady’s beauty, but he didn’t dare to look at her for long.
