In the dark void at the border of the Buddhist Demon Sea, Jian Wushuang, who was running away crazily, finally stopped on a dark ground.
"I can't continue running." Jian Wushuang looked around, "As this is the border of the Buddhist Demon Sea, it is hard to see a Star Demon. However, if I were to continue running forward, there is an eighty percent chance that I will run into one."
Star Demon … The Star Demons in the Sixth Lair, besides a small number of Four-Horned Star Demons that stayed in the dangerous places, were almost no threat to Jian Wushuang.
However, that was when Jian Wushuang was at his peak. To the current Jian Wushuang, a Three-Horned Crimson Star Demon was enough to be fatal.
He didn't dare to move around in the Sixth Lair. The most important thing was to quickly recover his condition.
"My injuries are too serious and my abilities have fallen to the bottom. It is impossible for me to recover in a short period of time. Moreover, the Sixth Lair is not a place to recover my abilities," Jian Wushuang muttered and immediately took out a token to send a message to Temple Lord Yuan.
"Jian Wushuang, Palace Master has already arrived at the Sixth Lair. I will inform him of your location. He will arrive at your location in no time. Also, Hall Master Gu Xin has already come out of the Buddhist Demon Sea," Temple Lord Yuan replied.
"Palace Master is here?" Jian Wushuang was stunned.
From what he knew, Star Palace Master had always been in seclusion. Moreover, the seclusion this time around seemed to be very important. Hence, even when Jian Wushuang had become the Temple Lord and held a banquet, Star Palace Master didn't show up.
However, at that moment …
"Palace Master has already come out of seclusion. When he heard the news that you were assassinated in the Buddhist Demon Sea, he immediately rushed over," Temple Lord Yuan said.
"Is that so?" Jian Wushuang was surprised.
"Jian Wushuang, wait there for a while," Temple Lord Yuan said.
"Okay." Jian Wushuang nodded and then sat down cross-legged.
With a flip of his hand, elixirs appeared in his hand. The elixirs were precious and even a Sir God would value them. However, Jian Wushuang ate the elixirs like they were beans. He swallowed more than ten of them in one go.
Then, he began to heal himself while waiting.
Not long after, a dark red figure rushed towards Jian Wushuang.
The dark red figure was none other than Gu Wang. He was connected to Jian Wushuang by heart, and they could sense each other's actions.
After arriving, Gu Wang immediately entered Jian Wushuang's body.
"Gu Wang, are you alright?" Jian Wushuang asked.
"He's injured and needs some time to recover, but it's nothing serious," Gu Wang said.
Upon hearing that, Jian Wushuang heaved a sigh of relief.
Time passed by. Jian Wushuang waited there quietly for ten days. Then, Palace Master Star and Hall Master Gu Xin arrived.
Seeing that Palace Master Star and Hall Master Gu Xin had arrived, Jian Wushuang was finally relieved.
"Jian Wushuang, your injury …" Palace Master Star squinted his eyes. He could sense that Jian Wushuang's aura was extremely weak.
"My injury is very serious, but I'm still alive," Jian Wushuang smiled sadly.
"What happened in the Buddhist Demon Sea? What about the Lei Dynasty? "Hall Master Gu Xin asked.
"Let's talk about this when we get back," Jian Wushuang said.
"Mm," Palace Master Star nodded his head faintly. After that, the three of them returned to the Star lineage.
Although Jian Wushuang's injury was very serious, during the ten days of waiting for Palace Master Star and Hall Master Gu Xin's arrival, he had swallowed elixirs to recover some of his divine power. Hence, he was still able to do simple traveling.
With Palace Master Star personally escorting them, the journey back was long and smooth. Very soon, the three of them returned to the Star lineage.
…
In the old lair of the Star lineage, in a lofty palace.
Palace Master Star sat at the highest point of the palace. Below him, Jian Wushuang, Temple Lord Yuan and Hall Master Gu Xin were also seated in their respective seats. As for Hall Master Nie Yun, he was still in the Fifth Lair and he had yet to come out.
At that moment, there was silence in the lofty palace. The four experts present looked at the corpse lying in the middle of the palace and their faces grew grave.
The corpse naturally belonged to the Lei Dynasty.
"I killed the Lei Dynasty with my own hands," Jian Wushuang's voice was low and there was a tinge of sorrow in his eyes.
The three people next to him heard but they didn't blame Jian Wushuang.
"I know about soul control too. Once one's soul is controlled, one will never have the chance to break free. It's equivalent to being dead. By killing him, you gave him a true release. If it were me, I would have done the same," Palace Master Star said.
Temple Lord Yuan and Hall Master Gu Xin nodded their heads solemnly.
Lei Dynasty was an expert of the Star lineage. Before Jian Wushuang rose, he was the number one among the Real Gods of the Star lineage. Hence, he had a close relationship with them.
Lei Dynasty's death made them grieve. However, if it were them, they would definitely do the same as Jian Wushuang and give Lei Dynasty a release.
"Bury him properly. Tell the public that he met with danger when he was wandering in the Sixth Lair and died by accident," Palace Master Star said.
"Yes," Temple Lord Yuan nodded his head and waved his hand to put Lei Dynasty's corpse into his Qian Kun ring.
After everyone put away their grief, Palace Master Star looked at Jian Wushuang.
"Jian Wushuang, tell us what happened to you in the Buddhist Demon Sea," Palace Master Star said.
"Mm," Jian Wushuang nodded his head and started to tell his story.
He didn't hide anything about what happened to him in the Buddhist Demon Sea and he told them everything that he needed to.
From when he first came to the triangular island where Lei Dynasty was, to when he met with the first killing move, which was the assassination attempt by the ugly woman, as well as his own judgment, he told them everything.
When they heard about the first and second killing moves prepared by Acheron Palace, the three Palace Masters of Star Palace could still remain calm.
However, when they found out about the third killing move of Acheron Palace, Temple Lord Yuan and Hall Master Gu Xin couldn't sit still.
"Five powerful Sir Gods set up the Killing Formation of Nine Cuts together?" Temple Lord Yuan and Hall Master Gu Xin stared.
They knew about the Killing Formation of Nine Cuts and it was set up by five Sir Gods. Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible for anyone below Emperor God to survive.
However, Jian Wushuang broke the Killing Formation of Nine Cuts forcefully and killed one of them?
This strength … even the most pinnacle Divine Lords were unable to do so, right?
"After I broke the Killing Formation of Nine Cuts and killed Lei Dynasty, I met another person. This person was the fourth killing move that Acheron Palace prepared for me." Jian Wushuang continued to tell his story, "He was wearing a crimson robe and he used a crimson trident. He was already in the realm of Emperor God!"
"Emperor God?"
Then, even the Master of Star Palace revealed a shocked expression.
"An Emperor God who used a crimson trident?"
"It's Emperor God Xue Gu!!!"
Star Palace Master slammed the table and stood up. There was boundless murderous intention in his eyes.
