In the Bank of the Universe, Trading Hall, a round table.
Li Xiandao sat on one side, the demon sat on one side, and Zhong Zi Qi sat on the other.
"Now, because the two of you can bring me huge benefits, I don't want to abandon either of you." Li Xiandao said what was on his mind.
He was direct!
Of course, this was because Li Xiandao didn't care about anything. He was the most stable out of the three.
Zhong Zi Qi and the demon kept silent and listened on.
The demon's trump card was the 12 Demon God Pillars but he was weak too. That was because he didn't know where the 12 Demon God Pillars were.
This was why the demon desperately needed Zhong Zi Qi's body.
Zhong Zi Qi was also really weak. Although he took out 50 Celestial Artifacts, in truth, he was the weakest out of the three.
If Li Xiandao didn't care about him, the demon would steal his body.
Although he came in with the watch, if he couldn't convince Li Xiandao, then everything would be useless.
So, the two of them kept silent.
"I hope that all of you can tell me your problems and then I will help you solve it. I will discuss a suitable outcome for everyone." Li Xiandao looked at the two of them and said.
The demon and Zhong Zi Qi kept silent and many thoughts ran through their minds.
"Let's start from you." Li Xiandao saw that the two of them didn't want to speak first, so he reached out and pointed at the demon.
Zhong Zi Qi looked at the demon with a solemn expression.
Li Xiandao looked on quietly.
"I have to steal his body. I can't last long in a soul state. My body was shattered 100,000 years ago and I was suppressed for 100,000 years. Now that the seal has weakened, I am able to come out. Zhong Zi Qi's body is the most suitable for me." The demon said solemnly and spoke about his problem.
Li Xiandao nodded, "Anything else?"
"I can take a step back. I will occupy his body and let his soul come out. Master, you can help him find a good body." The demon suggested.
Zhong Zi Qi shook his head.
"Anything else?" Li Xiandao asked.
"Not yet." The demon shook his head.
Li Xiandao looked at Zhong Zi Qi and said, "Tell me about your problem."
"My body can't be given to the demon. He has no reason to want to steal my body. That is such an overbearing action and he didn't get my permission." Zhong Zi Qi said unhappily.
"I am a demon." The demon said coldly. As the demon of Hell, he didn't care about the morals of humans.
Li Xiandao glanced at the demon and said coldly, "He is talking, so shut up."
The demon was terrified. He shut up right away and didn't dare to interrupt.
Li Xiandao said calmly, "Continue."
"I have a deep hatred and I have to take revenge with this body. I can't use another body to take revenge." Zhong Zi Qi looked at Li Xiandao with a hopeful gaze.
Li Xiandao had an idea. Zhong Zi Qi's hatred might be the key to breaking the situation.
"What is your hatred?" Li Xiandao asked.
Zhong Zi Qi's expression was solemn as he said, "My family, my hometown, my loved ones that I grew up with, were burned by a fire that descended from the sky. I want revenge."
"As long as you let me take revenge, I don't mind giving this body to the demon. But before that, I have to use this body to take revenge." Zhong Zi Qi said firmly.
Li Xiandao was delighted. As expected, the key to breaking the situation was on Zhong Zi Qi.
"Then, can you tell me who your enemy is?" Li Xiandao asked.
"I don't know." Zhong Zi Qi lowered his head and said dejectedly.
Li Xiandao blinked and asked, "You don't know or you can't find him?"
"That fire descended from the sky. I went out to hunt and when I returned, it was too late. My wife, my children, my parents, my relatives, and my friends have all turned into ashes. On the entire island, there is only one furnace that is still spewing flames. "Zhong Zi Qi took a deep breath and said through clenched teeth.
Li Xiandao looked at him and said, "So, this furnace became the key evidence."
"Right, but unfortunately, I walked the Nine Skies and searched many treasure lands. I got over 50 celestial artifacts but I didn't find any news about the furnace." Zhong Zi Qi said in disappointment.
"Take out your furnace and let us take a look." Li Xiandao thought about it and said.
Zhong Ziqi immediately took out a ten-meter-high furnace from his magic treasure, the Mountain River Diagram.
Dong!
It stood on three legs and the furnace had two ears. Many mysterious words were carved on it. There were also some animal images, birds, beasts, phoenixes, qilins, black tortoises, god dragons, etc …
The words on the furnace itself were hard to read. It wasn't any language that Li Xiandao didn't recognize.
Zhong Zi Qi said regretfully, "Because of this word, I searched through all the books in the Nine Skies, visited all the scholars, literary experts, and experts in history, but none of them recognized it."
"This is cuneiform." The demon suddenly opened his mouth.
Shua!
Li Xiandao and Zhong Zi Qi stared at him.
Zhong Zi Qi's eyes lit up and he trembled, "You recognize these words?"
The demon smiled confidently, "I am the demon of hell. These cuneiform words are rare and precious. Most people don't recognize them but coincidentally, I do."
"Tell me, what is written on it?" Zhong Zi Qi asked eagerly.
The demon didn't say a word and just looked at Li Xiandao.
Li Xiandao said calmly, "If the demon helps you find the owner of this furnace, what will you do?"
Zhong Zi Qi thought about it and said, "Once I take revenge, I will pass this body to you. I will find another one myself."
The demon blinked, "You won't be able to take revenge on your own."
Zhong Zi Qi frowned and looked at the demon. He didn't understand, "What do you mean?"
Li Xiandao looked on silently.
"The cuneiform words say that this furnace belongs to Huode Starlord and he is an elder who controls flames in the Celestial World Celestial Dynasty. He is a righteous celestial and is famous in the Celestial World. You have cultivated for 3,000 years and are just about to break through to Grandmaster Realm. If you rely on yourself, you won't be able to ascend to the Celestial World. So, you won't be able to take revenge." The demon said.
When Zhong Zi Qi heard this, he was stunned. He didn't expect that this furnace actually belonged to Huode Starlord from the Celestial World Celestial Dynasty.
As the demon said, if Zhong Zi Qi relied on himself, he wouldn't be able to take revenge.
This feeling was just too unbearable.
He knew who the enemy was but realized that the gap between them was like heaven and earth. It made Zhong Zi Qi want to cry.
He didn't have the ability to take revenge for his wife, for his children, for his parents …
At that moment, Zhong Zi Qi started to hate himself.
"So, you and I will temporarily merge and share a body to cultivate the supreme technique of Hell, Demon Summoning Technique. I guarantee that you will be able to ascend and personally kill Huode Starlord." The demon tempted him.
