"Haha, Shen Daoyou's joke is a little too much. Even I almost believed it. Since you don't want to listen to my kind words, I can only take you back after some effort. "
As soon as Huang Mei finished speaking, his body suddenly became illusory. He took a step forward and appeared in front of Shen Luo. He slammed his palm down on his head.
Shen Luo's hands were bound by the Dragon Binding Ring and the mana he could use was limited. He could only use the Slanting Moon Steps to dodge.
However, as soon as the moonlight scattered under his feet, the ground suddenly shook. Large amounts of soil and rocks rose up on their own, causing him to lose his balance and slow down his steps.
Just as he was about to be hit, Shen Luo roared and used all the mana he had left to summon the Exquisite Pagoda.
A golden light flashed outside his body and the shadow of a golden pagoda rose from the ground, covering him. The pagoda was hit by the palm, causing the golden light to tremble and the shadow of the pagoda to shrink.
"Your hands are bound by the Dragon Binding Ring. I want to see how long you can last." Huang Mei's smile did not diminish. He raised his hand and slammed down again.
This palm seemed to be slow, but it was actually very swift. Its momentum was heavy, and it was even more powerful than before. With a "bang", the golden light of the pagoda's shadow dimmed, and the pagoda's foundation became unstable. The pagoda's body shrunk again, and Shen Luo couldn't help but bend over under the pressure.
Seeing that Huang Mei was about to continue attacking, Shen Luo quickly shouted, "Yao Feng, come out and help me. If I die, you won't have a good time either."
As soon as he shouted, Huang Mei's expression changed. His raised hand also froze in mid-air.
A loud whistling sound came from the Black Bamboo Forest. A black figure wrapped in a whirlwind came whistling through the air, directly crashing into the yellow-browed monk.
The latter's palm that was aimed at Shen Luo immediately changed direction and hit the black whirlwind.
The person in the whirlpool collided with Huang Mei's palms and was immediately sent flying, revealing his true form.
He was dressed in black, with a bamboo hat on his head and a black cloth covering his face. His body exuded a dense demonic aura.
"Evil Wind?" Huang Mei looked at the person and muttered.
"If you don't leave now, the army of Demons will be here soon." Shen Luo took advantage of the situation and went behind Yao Feng. He looked at Monk Huang Mei with an expression that said he was saved.
"Did you really side with the Demons?" Monk Huang Mei frowned and asked.
"Nonsense. The Human and Immortal Clans are on the decline. If we don't side with the Demons, how can we survive? If it wasn't for hiding, I would have already been purified and transformed into Demons. "Shen Luo curled his lips and said.
Huang Mei's frown deepened. He looked towards the depths of the black bamboo forest and hesitated.
After a while, he suddenly raised an eyebrow and asked in a low voice, "So … Jiuming sent you to hide?"
"That's not it. My direct superior is the Venerable Chen Long. This time, I only revealed my identity to Lord Jiuming for the sake of a mission. You can say that I was seconded here. Before this … Hehe, I hid my identity very well," Shen Luo said proudly.
When the yellow-browed monk heard him say this, his expression relaxed. He also withdrew his offensive posture and said, "That's right.
"If that's the case, we're actually on the same side."
"On the same side?" Shen Luo's expression changed slightly. He was shocked.
But soon, he looked as if he had seen through Monk Huang Mei. He said sarcastically, "You're still playing this game at this point. Do you think I'll believe you?"
"Hehe, I knew you wouldn't believe me … When we attacked Wu Zhuang Taoist Temple, Jiuming obtained the Towering Formation map. You weren't the one who provided it, were you?" Huang Mei looked at Shen Luo with a smile and asked.
Shen Luo heard this and could not help but frown. He said hesitantly, "Are you really on the same side? Other than that, do you have any proof? "
"Proof? Why don't you show me your proof first? "Huang Mei paused for a moment and raised his eyebrows.
Shen Luo saw the subtle changes in his expression and said calmly, "Fellow Daoist, you're joking.
"Fellow Daoist Yellow Eyebrows, you must be joking. With my identity, how could I really bring any physical evidence? It would only increase the risk of exposure. I've always been in contact with the Venerable Chen Long. She was the only one who knew my identity. If you want proof, then I know that she's the daughter of the Jinghe Dragon King and a human. Her real name is Ma Xiuxiu. Does that count? "
When Monk Huang Mei heard this, the last bit of hesitation in his eyes finally disappeared.
The Venerable Chen Long was very secretive about his past, especially his experience as a human. Very few people in the Demon Race knew about this. Those who could tell him this information must have a close relationship with him.
"Good. I didn't expect Shen Daoyou to be on the same side. Then we don't have to fight to the death anymore. You mentioned earlier about the pincer attack of the Nine Underworlds … "The yellow browed monk smiled and asked casually.
"Of course, I'm just bluffing. You and I didn't send out the news, so why would they act rashly? This Fellow Daoist Yao Feng was only arranged to meet me here, "Shen Luo said with a smile.
After hearing this answer, Monk Huang Mei let out a sigh of relief.
Shen Luo knew that the last seemingly casual question was actually a hidden mystery.
Huang Mei didn't send out the news himself. Shen Luo had just arrived and hadn't gotten any useful information. Naturally, it was impossible for him to send out the news. In that case, Jiuming wouldn't attack rashly.
If Shen Luo continued to say that this was true, it would arouse suspicion and expose his position.
"Now that I've been exposed, I'm considered useless. The rest of the plan depends on you," Shen Luo said helplessly.
"It's not difficult to kill them. The difficult part is how to get the remnant Heavenly Book in their hands before that happens, "Huang Mei said.
"That's easy," Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Oh, you have a way?" Huang Mei asked suspiciously.
"If the Heavenly Book is split, the power of the Heavenly Dao will definitely be scattered. Since they want to deal with the Demons, they must gather their strength and try to reassemble the Heavenly Book. As long as you can persuade them to do so, won't they be willing to take out the Heavenly Book? At that time, you can catch them off guard and snatch it. Won't that be a success? "Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Wonderful, wonderful! It's indeed a good idea, "Huang Mei also clapped and laughed.
"But it's easy to say. You still lack a proof of allegiance," Shen Luo continued.
"Proof of allegiance?" Huang Mei frowned.
"The Heavenly Book is very precious. It's impossible for them to take it out so easily. You have to show some sincerity first," Shen Luo said.
"You mean, I should take out my own Heavenly Book first?" Huang Mei said.
"That's right, only then will it be convincing. Also, I can give you my Heavenly Book. After that, you can go back and make up a reason that I'm already dead. It shouldn't be difficult, right? "Shen Luo said with a smile.
"You're giving me your Heavenly Book too?" Huang Mei was surprised when he heard this.
