At this moment, none of the people present, including Zhao Ji's father, Zhao Deng, would have thought that the reason Zhu Lüqi, the Palace Master of Heaven Palace, had brought Xu Jing away was not as simple as it seemed.
First of all, how did Zhu Lüqi know that the Devil Technique Xu Jing cultivated was the Devouring Dark Devil Technique?
Zhu Lüqi was not Zhao Ji. He would not despicably use Li Feng to provoke Xu Jing.
The culprit was none other than Zhao Ji, who was by Zhao Deng's side.
Previously, when Zhao Ji spoke to Xu Jing in the secret underground chamber, he was troubled by Xu Jing's unreasonable request before he left.
Xu Jing wanted him to rescue him. To him, this was as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
Unless his grandfather or father were willing to help him, it was impossible.
Later on, an accident led him to discover the Palace Master, Zhu Lüqi, venting in a remote valley halfway up the Heaven Palace. The way Zhu Lüqi was venting did not seem like a person who had lived for more than a hundred years.
First, he carved huge rocks into the image of Feng Bu Yi, the Deputy Leader of the Mountainshade Black Market. Then, he blasted Feng Bu Yi's statues into dust with lightning speed.
At that time, Zhao Ji could clearly feel Zhu Lüqi's anger.
At that moment, he saw hope. 'If Zhu Lüqi, the Palace Master of Heaven Palace, is willing to help, it won't be difficult for me to rescue Xu Jing!'
Due to this reason, he began to stay away from Zhu Lüqi.
In the beginning, he did not go straight to the point. Instead, he tried to sound out Zhu Lüqi's opinion. He wanted to know what Zhu Lüqi thought of the Devil Dao Cultivation Method that could be said to be heartless and inhumane.
If Zhu Lüqi rejected that Cultivation Method, he could only dismiss the idea of working with Zhu Lüqi.
However, after some probing, Zhao Ji discovered that although Zhu Lüqi rejected that Cultivation Method, his hatred for Feng Bu Yi, the Deputy Leader of the Mountainshade Black Market, surpassed everything else.
In order to kill Feng Bu Yi, he was willing to cultivate that kind of cultivation technique!
Under such circumstances, he laid his cards on the table with Zhu Lüqi and told him that he planned to rescue Xu Jing in exchange for the Devouring Dark Devil Technique.
Zhu Lüqi, who was blinded by hatred, immediately agreed.
As a result, today's scene was born.
Recently, it was Zhu Lüqi's turn to be on duty. He was in charge of monitoring Xu Jing.
At this moment, it was undoubtedly a piece of cake for Zhu Lüqi to rescue Xu Jing before the high-ranking officials of the Mystical Sky Mansion could react.
…
Of course, only Zhao Ji, Zhu Lüqi, and Xu Jing knew about this.
One must admit that as the strongest person among the second generation in the Mystical Sky Mansion, other than having an extraordinary innate talent in the Martial Dao, Zhao Ji was also very smart.
For example, his' deal 'with Zhu Lüqi this time.
With Zhu Lüqi's strength, he could easily kick Zhao Ji aside and work with Xu Jing on his own.
However, he had said that if Zhu Lüqi dared to act alone, he would immediately complain to his grandfather and father. At most, they would go their separate ways.
He had used this to threaten Zhu Lüqi and made Zhu Lüqi swear on the lightning penalty oath so he could enjoy the fruits of his labor.
From the beginning until the end, he did not even need to expose himself to obtain the Devil Dao Cultivation Technique, the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, that he had been dreaming of!
Naturally, he had yet to obtain the Devouring Dark Devil Technique since Xu Jing insisted on only passing the Devouring Dark Devil Technique to him and Zhu Lüqi after he left the Mystical Sky Mansion.
'I hope Zhu Lüqi isn't so useless …'
At this moment, Zhao Ji was most worried about his grandfather and Gu Ci Yun catching up to Zhu Lüqi. He was not worried about Zhu Lüqi's safety at all. He was more worried that he would not be able to obtain the Devouring Dark Devil Technique even though he had wasted his breath.
Fortunately, Zhu Lüqi was unaware of Zhao Ji's thoughts. Otherwise, he would have been angered to the point of throwing up blood.
I've risked my life to bring him out, and I'm not even worried about wasting my energy. However, you're just a brat who only used your mouth, and you're actually worried about wasting your breath? '
A few days later, the two great Guardians returned empty-handed.
After Zhu Lüqi left with Xu Jing, it was as though he had completely vanished without a trace.
"I'm afraid Palace Master Zhu has been planning this for a long time … Let alone us, even if Lord Mansion Master chases after him personally, I'm afraid you might not be able to catch up to him."
The group of Mystical Sky Mansion's high-ranking officials who were Vice Mansion Masters and above gathered again due to Gu Ci Yun and Zhao Jin's return.
"If that's the case, there's no need to waste our energy looking for him. Based on his message, he's already determined to cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique! Now, we can also withdraw the people from the Rising Sky Mansion's estate. Also, spread the news that our Mystical Sky Mansion has discovered someone from the Rising Sky Mansion cultivating the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. That's why we're attacking them! "
Meng Qing nodded. Currently, he seemed to have regained his usual calmness as he began to deal with the Rising Sky Mansion's matters.
In the past, there had always been people from the Mystical Sky Mansion guarding the Rising Sky Mansion's estate because they were worried the news would be leaked.
However, there was no need for that now.
"Also, spread the news that our Mystical Sky Mansion's Palace Master of Heaven Palace, Zhu Lüqi, has kidnapped Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, and has been expelled by our Mystical Sky Mansion! Xu Jing is the first person in the Rising Sky Mansion to cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique! "
Meng Qing continued to say.
When Meng Qing said this, it was obvious he was pushing all the blame onto Zhu Lüqi.
Since Zhu Lüqi dared to do this, he must have been mentally prepared.
"Also, send someone to the Mountainshade Black Market and inform Feng Bu Yi, the Deputy Leader of the Mountainshade Black Market, that the reason Zhu Lüqi kidnapped Xu Jing was to obtain the Devouring Dark Devil Technique that Xu Jing cultivated so he could seek revenge from him!"
Meng Qing said again.
The group of Mystical Sky Mansion's high-ranking officials present on the scene did not have any objections to Meng Qing's decision.
The other three Palace Masters who had a good relationship with Zhu Lüqi sighed inwardly.
However, they also knew their Mansion Master was doing this for the sake of the big picture. He did not intend to harm Zhu Lüqi.
Just like this, shocking news spread out from the Mystical Sky Mansion and caused a huge commotion in the Dobusei Subterranean.
"The Devouring Dark Devil Technique has appeared again?!"
"The fourth-rate force, the Rising Sky Mansion, obtained the Devouring Dark Devil Technique? The Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion did not die even after his glabella was pierced by a sword because he cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique? "
"When the quasi third-rate force, the Mystical Sky Mansion, learned that someone from the Rising Sky Mansion had cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, they made a move and suppressed the Rising Sky Mansion. The core force of the Rising Sky Mansion resisted stubbornly and was completely annihilated. Only the elderly, women, and children survived?"
"Then, doesn't this mean the Devouring Dark Devil Technique has fallen into the hands of the Mystical Sky Mansion?"
"Zhu Lüqi, the Palace Master of Mystical Sky Mansion's Heaven Palace, kidnapped Xu Jing for his own selfish reasons. The Mystical Sky Mansion failed to find him so they publicly announced that they're expelling Xu Jing from the Mystical Sky Mansion!"
"It seems like Zhu Lüqi wants to cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique!"
…
The peaceful Dobusei Subterranean was in an uproar because of the news.
Many people sighed emotionally. A dignified fourth-rate force like the Rising Sky Mansion was annihilated just like that.
There were even more people who were amazed by the Mystical Sky Mansion's strength. "As expected of a quasi third-rate force. Its strength is not something a fourth-rate force can compare to at all. It annihilated a fourth-rate force just like that!"
The various fourth-rate forces had also learned about this news.
"The Mystical Sky Mansion is actually so powerful? Don't tell me this is the difference between a quasi third-rate force and a fourth-rate force? "
In some of the fourth-rate forces' bases, the high-ranking officials gathered and looked at each other. They could see the shock in each other's eyes.
"The Mystical Sky Mansion can't be considered as the strongest among quasi third-rate forces. If the Mystical Sky Mansion is already so powerful, how terrifying would the Mountainshade Black Market and Azure Cloud Mansion be?"
Although they were from fourth-rate forces, they did not have any conflicts with quasi third-rate forces. Although they knew quasi third-rate forces were powerful, they did not know exactly how powerful they were.
However, this time, the Mystical Sky Mansion had annihilated the backbone of the Rising Sky Mansion without sacrificing a single soldier. Not only that, but it had also demonstrated the strength of a quasi third-rate force.
Such strength made them tremble in fear.
"To think I thought we'd be able to become a quasi third-rate force in less than a hundred years. Now, it seems like I was dreaming!"
"A quasi third-rate force is actually so powerful! We still have a long way to go before we can become a quasi third-rate force. "
…
In the Dobusei Subterranean, many fourth-rate forces were shocked by the quasi third-rate force's strength. They no longer dared to think of replacing it.
The Mystical Sky Mansion had used its actions to prove its strength as a quasi third-rate force.
As one of the two most powerful quasi third-rate forces in the Dobusei Subterranean, the Azure Cloud Mansion had, naturally, received the news from the Mystical Sky Mansion immediately.
"Devouring Dark Devil Technique?"
In the main hall, a person sat on the main seat. It was none other than the current Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Rufeng.
"Yes."
Below him, an old man nodded his head in response.
"Elder Rong, you may take your leave."
Duan Rufeng said.
"Lord Mansion Master, the appearance of the Devouring Dark Devil Technique will definitely cause harm. Should our Azure Cloud Mansion make a move to look for the Mystical Sky Mansion's traitor, Zhu Lüqi, and kill him to prevent future troubles?"
The old man was none other than one of Duan Rufeng's two capable subordinates, Rong Yuan.
When he saw Duan Rufeng had asked him to leave without saying anything after learning about the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, he was puzzled. That was why he asked this question.
"We'll wait and see for now."
Duan Rufeng replied.
"Understood."
Rong Yuan nodded his head respectfully before turning around and leaving.
After Rong Yuan left, Duan Rufeng muttered to himself, "If I'm not mistaken, the Devouring Dark Devil Technique seems to be a Devil Technique created by Black Nether! However, the original Devouring Dark Devil Technique was cultivated by devouring Yin Moonlight Energy. It's considered a normal Devil Dao Cultivation Method. "
