Tun Mang left angrily.
Even after receiving the latest news that the seed demon was heading towards the Devil Cliff Battlefield again, he had to admit that Xie Tian was telling the truth. Still, he had been angered by his subordinate's lack of ability to chat.
But just as he turned a corner, he stopped in his tracks.
"That's not right …"
Tun Mang's face was full of doubt.
"Did Yours Truly think too highly of him?"
He muttered to himself when he recalled how distracted Xie Tian had been when the two of them were being chased by a demon.
"As I thought!"
"He can be lazy and listless against ordinary demons because he can use dirty tricks to deal with them, but the seed demon …"
Tun Mang rubbed his chin, immediately feeling that the thorns on his back had lessened.
"Heh heh, you knew that dirty tricks couldn't deal with the seed demon, so you were so scared when you heard it was coming … Heh heh, did you really think that you could deal with me? You're really stupid …"
But between being stupid and being sinister, he still chose being stupid when it came to his subordinate.
So, he rolled his eyes. Not only did he not have the confidence to turn around and beat up Xie Tian, he was instead thinking about how to use him.
"After all, you can't trick me, but at least you can trick others … I'm really too excited, hahaha …"
Unable to hold back his laughter, Tun Mang swaggered off, leaving only the shockwaves caused by his laughter, which woke up Xie Tian who was still muttering to himself.
"He either has something to rely on, or he's plotting something …"
Xie Tian came to a conclusion after combining the fact that the seed demon had voluntarily stopped fighting and that it had gotten up again to attack the water plains.
The process of coming to a conclusion was vague.
But sometimes, the process was not important.
What was important was the beginning.
Because the beginning often foreshadowed the end.
"So whether I'm here or not, you'll come …"
"Or because I've lost, you'll come even more …"
In terms of the battle in the void, Xie Tian had not truly lost.
But with the seed demon's subsequent actions, Xie Tian had such a feeling.
Because the Seed Fiend continued to move forward, it gave off the feeling of chasing after victory.
It was as if the demon was using this behavior to tell Xie Tian that it wasn't seeking to defeat him in the Void Plane. That was why it voluntarily stopped the battle. And here it was.
"I'm so scared …"
Without Tung Mang by his side, Xie Tian muttered again.
At this moment, his heart was beating faster, and his whole body was trembling.
For an ordinary person, this would be a form of fear.
But when paired with Xie Tian's glistening bloody eyes, as well as something that was about to start burning, it was not fear —
Instead, it was a kind of anticipation.
This was a kind of expectation towards a strong enemy.
However, it was different from ordinary people's expectations, because this kind of expectation was full of uncertainty.
Even though he was looking forward to it, Xie Tian didn't know whether he would die or the seed demon.
But that was not important.
The important thing was to do everything in his power to keep himself alive.
The trembling stopped under Xie Tian's suppression.
The trembling that entered his body was attacked by a fierce flame, instantly burning up. It truly lit up the thing that was about to start burning in his bloody eyes.
Very bright.
These two words not only described Xie Tian's bloody eyes, but also how Dongfang Wu felt about Son of Heaven Shu.
He was chased by the demon for several days.
At the last moment of his life, a streak of light descended from the sky, melting away the demon that was about to give him darkness and death …
This was how Dongfang Wu felt now.
But on the surface, she looked rather calm.
And this calmness seemed to be the growth brought about by the huge change in the Unbounded World.
Because of this calmness, Son of Heaven Shu, who had just returned from a long journey and unintentionally saved Dongfang Wu, had the mood to talk.
"I saved you, aren't you going to say thank you?"
"Thank you."
"Keke, I thought you would only say it to him."
"Him?"
"You already know the answer?"
"Xie Tian?"
"Who else could it be?"
"Who do you think he is to me?"
"I think?" Son of Heaven Shu smiled. "I thought it was meaningless, but your mother thought …"
Dongfang Wu's expression was cold. "The successor of Evil Emperor, Realm Slaying! Although the Unbounded World is gone, the Evil Slaying Heart is still there! "
Son of Heaven Shu did not speak immediately.
After thinking, he said thoughtfully, "Then why did your mother …"
"Lord, if you blaspheme my mother again, even if Dongfang Wu will repay you for saving my life in the next life, I will seek justice for my mother and the Unbounded World in this life!"
Son of Heaven Shu was startled. He looked at Dongfang Wu and nodded with a smile. "That's right."
After saying that, he chose a direction and left.
Dongfang Wu stared at Son of Heaven Shu's back for a long time until he disappeared. Her gaze did not change.
But she, who pretended to be calm, did not know that where Son of Heaven Shu was looking, there were a few more strands of white hair while they were talking.
"If it wasn't for the pain of love, why did it …"
Son of Heaven Shu, who was walking towards the demon closest to him, stopped and pondered.
The mother and daughter of the Unbounded World's Lord were originally people he disregarded.
But the encounter at the campsite made him pay attention to it.
He could not imagine whether the Unbounded World's Lord, Dongfang Mingzhu, was possessed by a ghost or crazy when the Evil Emperor's successor wanted to slay the world. She actually favored the Evil Emperor's successor so much.
Now that he coincidentally met Dongfang Wu, he wanted to find out more.
After a series of questions, all he got was Dongfang Wu and her daughter's anger towards the Evil Emperor's successor.
Furthermore, this was very easy to believe. After all, the Unbounded World, which was ranked third among the eight ancient sects under the Heavenly Court, was forcefully destroyed by Xie Tian.
But with his intelligence, how could he believe it?
Only when he noticed that a few strands of Dongfang Wu's snow-white hair had become white did he understand. The reason was very simple — Dongfang Wu had fallen in love with Xie Tian.
"And in order to fulfill her daughter's wish, Dongfang Mingzhu disregarded the destruction of the Unbounded World and brought Dongfang Wu to Bi Cliff to find Xie Tian …"
"But no matter how magnanimous the lord of a world is, no matter how much he cares for his daughter, how could he endure such deep hatred?"
"So …"
Even Dongfang Mingzhu's crazed state was explained. Son of Heaven Shu felt relieved.
"Heh, although it's a bit weird, but …"
His eyes lit up as if he thought of something. Then, he shook his head and threw the thought to the back of his mind. He chased after the demon that had discovered him and was frantically running away.
"Since the seed demon is here, it will die sooner or later. Why not let me try the eighth Nine Heavens Divine Power …"
As if she could sense all this, Dongfang Wu, who had a cold expression, finally let the tears she had been suppressing for a long time fall down.
"If not exposing your identity is your wish, then I only ask that you spare me on account of me covering up for you. Mother …"
The murmur ended.
Dongfang Wu closed her eyes that had turned gray and stopped her tears. Then, she turned and headed towards Mount Mang.
