Zhu Lüqi!
Currently, this name was known by everyone in the Dobusei Subterranean.
≥
Tsk!
Earlier, the few guards at the entrance of the Mountainshade Black Market's headquarters had yet to regain their senses.
Now that they had regained their senses, they looked at each other and saw the shock and disbelief in each other's eyes.
"Zhu Lüqi, the former Palace Master of Mystical Sky Mansion's Heaven Palace? The person who cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique? "
"There seems to be a rumor that the reason Zhu Lüqi cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique was to look for Vice Leader Feng! Initially, I thought the rumor was unreliable, but now it seems like it's true! "
"Vice Leader Feng was really killed by Zhu Lüqi!"
…
Soon after, the news of Vice Leader Feng Bu Yi's death spread throughout the Mountainshade Black Market's headquarters.
For this reason, the Mountainshade Black Market's high-ranking officials, led by the Leader of Mountainshade Black Market, Dugu, had gathered together to discuss how to kill Zhu Lu Qi to avenge Feng Bu Yi.
Meanwhile, after leaving the Mountainshade Black Market's headquarters, Zhu Lüqi returned to his residence.
His residence was located in a valley in a remote mountain range. There were two simple wooden houses in the valley. Based on the wood used to build the houses, it was obvious they had just been built.
One of the wooden houses belonged to him.
The other wooden house belonged to Xu Jing, the former Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion.
Currently, Xu Jing's soul was almost fully recovered, and he was trying to merge it back into his body.
Once it completely merged with his body, he would be reborn and see the light of day again!
Creak!
Suddenly, the door of the wooden house opened.
"You're back?"
Although Xu Jing's soul had not completely returned to his body, he could use his Divine Consciousness at will. Due to this reason, he could easily sense the person who had entered.
"Yes."
The person who had entered was none other than Zhu Lüqi.
However, currently, Zhu Lüqi's eyes were gleaming coldly when he looked at Xu Jing.
"Didn't you go to seek revenge from Feng Bu Yi? What happened in the end? "
Xu Jing asked.
"It went very smoothly. He's already dead."
Zhu Lüqi said indifferently.
"That's good … As long as I'm fully recovered, I'll pass the last part of the Devouring Dark Devil Technique to you! In the future, if the two of us join hands, we can go anywhere in the world! "
Xu Jing's words were filled with excitement.
"I'm afraid you won't have that chance."
Zhu Lüqi suddenly said.
"Stop joking!"
Xu Jing thought that Zhu Lüqi was joking.
"I'm not joking."
Zhu Lüqi's tone gradually turned cold.
"Don't forget that both of you swore on the lightning penalty oath before I passed the Devouring Dark Devil Technique to you and Zhao Ji. Unless I make you my enemy, you're not allowed to kill me! If you kill me, you will be violating the Lightning Punishment Oath. You will die without a doubt! "
Xu Jing did not seem to be worried at all.
"Don't worry. I won't kill you. I've thought about it. Even if I don't kill you, I can make sure you'll never see the light of day again! "
Zhu Lüqi was even less worried.
"W-what are you trying to do?"
Finally, Xu Jing's voice changed. He sounded slightly panicked. Based on Zhu Lüqi's tone, it did not seem like he was joking!
"Tell me … If you're turned into a human stick, what's the use of your soul returning to your body?"
Zhu Lüqi seemed to be talking to Xu Jing, but at the same time, he seemed to be talking to himself.
"No! No! You can't do that … You can't! You can't! You can't! "
Xu Jing was completely flustered and anxious. When he sent another Voice Transmission, he sounded slightly hysterical.
However, Zhu Lüqi ignored Xu Jing's words. He raised his hand and chopped off one of Xu Jing's arms.
"You … You don't want the last part of the Devouring Dark Devil Technique anymore?"
Xu Jing's Voice Transmission sounded as though he was shouting.
Although Xu Jing's soul had not returned to his body and he could not feel any pain, his Divine Consciousness could still detect that one of his arms had been chopped off.
"In the future, I plan to devour the Moonlight Force to cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. Do you think I still need the last part?"
Zhu Lüqi said indifferently as he chopped off one of Xu Jing's arms.
In the end, under Xu Jing's desperate cry, Zhu Lüqi turned him into a human stick and threw him into a secluded mountain cave that he had prepared beforehand.
Then, he filled up the cave and sealed Xu Jing inside forever.
As for Xu Jing's soul that had almost recovered, he had also injured it again. Not only that, but he also left behind an extremely corrosive Devil Qi that constantly corroded Xu Jing's soul, preventing him from recovering.
Due to the lightning penalty oath, he could not kill Xu Jing. For this reason, he could only do this.
"Mansion Master … Although I can't kill him due to the lightning penalty oath, it's impossible for him to bring any trouble to the Mystical Sky Mansion! This can be considered the last thing I, Zhu Lüqi, will do for the Mystical Sky Mansion before I leave the Lower Province. "
After everything was done, Zhu Lüqi rose into the air and looked in the direction of the Mystical Sky Mansion's estate as he muttered to himself.
As soon as he finished speaking, he headed straight for the north.
Before he killed Feng Bu Yi, he had already made up his mind.
After killing Feng Bu Yi, he would get rid of Xu Jing who was a threat to the Mystical Sky Mansion before leaving the Dobusei Subterranean and heading to the Upper Province.
He wanted to start a new life in the Upper Province.
With the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, he was confident he would be able to make a name for himself even if he did not take a shortcut.
At this moment, he felt the blood in his body that had been dormant for many years was boiling again. It was as though he had returned to the time when he was young. His blood was boiling, and he was filled with passion!
"Huh?"
After traveling for a few days, when they were about to arrive at the passage from the Lower Province to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, two familiar figures entered Zhu Lüqi's eyes.
"It's them! They're planning to go to the Upper Province? "
As Zhu Lüqi muttered to himself, he managed to figure out what was going on.
The two figures that appeared in front of Zhu Lüqi were none other than Duan Lingtian and Gu Li whom Zhu Lüqi had met earlier.
Whoosh!
In just a flash, Zhu Lüqi passed by Duan Lingtian and Gu Li and appeared in front of them.
"Palace Master Zhu?"
Duan Lingtian had long noticed the commotion behind him. However, since the person did not seem hostile, he did not pay much attention to it.
Now that the person had appeared in front of him in just a flash and revealed his face, he was shocked.
"W-What do you want?!"
When they saw Zhu Lüqi again, compared to the shock on Duan Lingtian's face, horror dawned on Gu Li.
He thought Zhu Lüqi regretted letting him and Duan Lingtian go that day so he came to kill them.
"Duan Lingtian, are all of you planning to go to the Upper Province?"
Zhu Lüqi asked.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded before he asked in surprise, "Don't tell me Palace Master Zhu is planning to go to the Upper Province as well?"
"Yes."
Zhu Lüqi nodded. "Now that I've avenged myself, there's nothing left for me to worry about in the Lower Province. For this reason, I plan to start a new life in the Upper Province. If you don't mind, why don't we travel together? "
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian did not reply to Zhu Lüqi directly. Instead, he looked at Gu Li and waited for Gu Li's opinion.
He was doing this out of respect for Gu Li's decision.
After all, Duan Lingtian was not alone.
If he was alone, he would not mind Zhu Lüqi traveling with him.
After all, Zhu Lüqi no longer planned to cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique through shortcuts after he had avenged himself. It could be said that he had turned over a new leaf by cultivating the Devouring Dark Devil Technique normally.
As the saying went, 'A prodigal son is more valuable than gold.'
Since Zhu Lüqi no longer committed such atrocious acts, Duan Lingtian did not dislike Zhu Lüqi.
Duan Lingtian's request for Gu Li's opinion warmed Gu Li's heart.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, you decide."
However, Gu Li gave the choice to Duan Lingtian in the end.
"Palace Master Zhu, we'll travel with you."
Duan Lingtian said to Zhu Lüqi. Zhu Lüqi was excited.
After all, if he went to the Upper Province alone, he would be all alone when he arrived at the Upper Province. He would not know anyone and would have to start from scratch.
However, if he had a powerful companion from the beginning, everything would be different.
At the very least, the journey would be much easier.
At the same time, although Gu Li no longer said anything, a hint of wariness could be seen in his eyes when he looked at Zhu Lüqi.
Naturally, Zhu Lüqi noticed this. However, he did not mind it at all.
Naturally, he only acted nonchalant on the surface, but he still felt bitter in his heart.
Compared to Duan Lingtian, it was obvious his relationship with Gu Li was much closer compared to Duan Lingtian when they were in the Mystical Sky Mansion.
Duan Lingtian was only an ordinary Heaven Palace's disciple while Duan Lingtian was technically his junior nephew in terms of seniority.
The three of them traveled and soon arrived near the passage from the Lower Province to the Upper Province.
What appeared before the three of them was a majestic snowy mountain.
Due to its location, this area was covered in snow all year round. Even now, it was still snowing heavily.
"Elder Liu."
At the peak of the snow mountain, Duan Lingtian saw the Guardian of the Dao Martial Saint Land again. It was Elder Liu whom he had met in the Azure Cloud Mansion not long ago.
When Duan Lingtian took the initiative to greet him, Elder Liu also recognized Duan Lingtian. He was the son of Duan Rufeng, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion.
"Go to the Upper Province?"
Elder Liu asked.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded. "Elder Liu, although we know the passage is nearby, we still can't find it after searching for so long. Can you give us some pointers?"
"Follow me."
After glancing at Zhu Lüqi and Gu Li who were standing next to Duan Lingtian, Elder Liu said to Duan Lingtian.
At the same time, he soared into the air and brought Duan Lingtian and the other two to the mountainside of the lofty snow mountain.
The mountainside was covered in snow.
Whoosh!
Under the watchful eyes of Duan Lingtian and the other two, Elder Liu raised his hand and a vast energy surged and gathered in his hand.
As he swept his hand across the air, the invisible energy swept out like a broom and swept away part of the snow on the mountainside, revealing the entrance of a cave.
At first glance, it was completely dark inside the cave. Nothing could be seen.
"This is the passage from the Lower Province to the Upper Province?"
