The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1158

"Your life is in our hands, yet you're still reluctant to talk,"

the queen snorted. Then, she released her spiritual sense all of a sudden and heavily hit the demon lord's Soul Sea.

At once, he felt a sharp pain and started to scream.

Apparently, the queen's spiritual sense was so powerful that the demon lord could not even take one blow from it.

"Either you talk to me and voluntarily answer the questions or I will pull your soul out, cast a spell, and search for the answers we want in your Soul Sea myself.

It's your choice!"

Even though she maintained a calm demeanor, her threatening words sent chills to the demon lord's heart. Suddenly, he felt cold -- as if he had sunk into the seafloor of an ocean that was thousands of meters deep.

In that moment, the demon lord finally realized how strong they actually were. He knew then that there was no way for him to deal with them without him ending up dead in the end.

If he chose to keep silent, he was sure to be tortured ruthlessly.

Thus, in order to avoid the cruel torture, he decided to answer Austin's questions honestly instead.

From the demon lord, Austin found out that the emperor, princes, dukes, and ministers had all been imprisoned.

More than that, he learned that the demon race actually invaded the Prime Martial World for two reasons. Firstly, they wanted to plunder more resources to cultivate their fighting skills. Secondly, they wanted more slaves for themselves.

Therefore, the demon race had no intention of wiping out the human race after all.

They only needed to kill whoever fought against them while enslaving those who did not resist.

Meanwhile, at that time, the battle in the imperial capital city was over. All of the creatures from the demon race, had already been slaughtered by the soldiers from the evil shadow race.

The reason why the battle ended in such a short time was because the Violet Orchid Empire was actually small and weak.

For that reason, the leaders of the demon race did not consider it to be of great importance. Thus, only two demon lords and a dozen demon generals were tasked to lead the demon soldiers to conquer the empire.

After Austin had forced the demon lord to answer all of his questions, he then used the Body Invading Skill to absorb all of the demon lord's demonic energy.

In spite of the demon lord's cooperation, Austin did not show any mercy. After all, he had sworn to kill them all.

Once he was finished absorbing the demon lord's demonic energy, he headed for the imperial palace.

In the past, whenever Austin stayed in the imperial capital city, the emperor was always kind to him.

More than that, Austin also heard that whenever he was away, the emperor would send people to take good care of Austin's men in the Austin Palace.

Because of this, Austin decided to show his gratitude.

A few moments later, Austin found the place where the emperor was imprisoned and immediately set him free.

The emperor, his family, dukes, ministers, as well as their servants had all been locked up in the same building.

When Austin found them, all of them were in ragged clothing, looking tired and haggard.

Before they were imprisoned, they were in high, well-respected positions, enjoying wealth and power.

However, when the demon race conquered the imperial palace, they were tortured and frightened endlessly.

"Austin!

It's you.

You have come back for us,"

the emperor exclaimed with a mixture of excitement and surprise the moment he recognized Austin.

"Yes, it's Austin. He has come here to save us!"

The other members of the royal family also exclaimed.

In the past, Austin was a renowned figure in the imperial capital city of the Violet Orchid Empire.

After he killed the leader of the Ghost Sect, songs and poems were written for him, and his legends became known to every single person in the Violet Orchid Empire.

Therefore, all of the people from the royal family knew Austin quite well.

"Calm down, your highness. Don't worry. I'm here to help you out,"

Austin said while smiling slightly. Given his current power, he no longer felt very humble face to face with the emperor.

"Your highness, please allow me to return all the wealth that was taken from you by the demon race to its true owners," said Austin.

After saying those words, Austin took out two Space Rings and gave them to the emperor.

Austin frisked the demon lords and found those two Space Rings. After interrogating them, Austin gathered that the great wealth which the demon race stole from the imperial palace was actually stored inside those Space Rings.

The emperor took the two Space Rings at once and released his spiritual sense to see what was inside. After seeing what was inside it, he was both delighted and surprised.

The great fortune and wealth inside the two Space Rings contained everything that the royal family had saved up bit by bit over many years. In a way, they were the foundation of the royal family.
